“Amanda is warm and friendly. She was so enthusiastic about caring for my lil lady. My girl is 16 with special needs. I felt confident that my girl was in good hands.”
“Jennalynn was awesome with Pepper. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with rescue dogs which is hard to find. I have a fearful reactive dog I recently adopted, so I had to give her 100 details about her background. Her communication to come up with an intro plan made things so much easier. I highly recommend Jennalynn for all dog needs!”
About: My tripawd doggie and my senior cat fill my heart with love, but there’s more to go around! I have had pets all my life and never turned down a request to assist a friend with a drop in visit, a walk or a play date with my dog. I take tug of war seriously 🫡 and can accommodate even the longest of walks needed. I love dog parks, so as long as the owner is also into them, I will happily and responsibly include them in a routine. For cats, I have experience with senior cats in dare conditions (including administering IV, pill swallowing and showering with love, pets and scritches). I’m not afraid of cleaning up a floor mess and brushing cats in need of it. I currently work remotely in South Beach. I have great flexibility in the afternoon and evenings and often take my own dog to the beach, super close to me. I have a very chill cat that can be isolated in a bedroom if necessary. My dog LOVES to play with other dogs and I will happily throw a blanket on the couch and let them get tired!
“This is my second time booking Leo! He showed up exactly when scheduled and remembered details from the first booking that I had forgotten to re-share. Thank you so much for taking care of my two little ones!”
About: Experienced Dog Lover Offering Personalized Walking & Sitting Services – Expert Care for Puppies, Seniors, & All Breeds! As a lifelong dog owner, I’ve been surrounded by dogs since I was 6, managing up to three dogs at once, including German Shepherds and a Shih Tzu. I understand the unique needs of different breeds and energy levels, ensuring your dog gets the right amount of exercise and attention at the right time. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog needing extra care, I offer personalized walking and sitting services that prioritize your pet’s happiness and well-being. Let me give your dog the love and care they deserve! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home and have a lot of free time. This flexibility allows me to give my pet plenty of attention throughout the day, and I live in a pet-friendly area, which makes it easy to enjoy outdoor activities together. I provide personalized care for pets by offering walks, feeding, playtime based on their needs. I ensure pets feel comfortable and stick to their routines, following specific instructions for each pet to create a safe and stress-free environment, whether in my home or my clients' homes.
“Silvia is amazing!! Both of my cats loved her right from the first time they met her (and one of them is very shy and doesn’t usually engage much with new people). Silvia is super communicative and shared updates and photos for each check-in visit. It’s clear she absolutely LOVES animals, and I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I treat every pet like family. I know what it means to love and to lose, and that experience shaped how carefully I care for the ones still here. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet care, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy long walks in nature and taking the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and routine. I care for every pet with patience, presence, and respect. I live in a quiet, cozy one-bedroom apartment with two cats. There is no balcony, and the space is calm and secure. For dogs, there is a designated dog park in my building. I always follow pet parents’ instructions closely to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats my whole life. My 16 year old pitbull/american bulldog mix Riley was the light of my life. She passed away in April and I’m not ready yet to adopt again. Recently I have been watching my friends dogs for company at home because my apartment feels so empty without her. I have experience with both senior dogs and puppies and reactive dogs as well. I also have experience with administering medication and caring for dogs with special needs. I am responsive around the clock- I work full time in Marine Operations at Norwegian cruise line so I am always available by phone and you will never have difficulty reaching me. Monday through Thursday I usually go to the office from about 7am - 2pm. If a dog I’m caring for needs more attention I usually just take some work from home days. Otherwise we would have a nice long sunrise walk before I leave home at 7 and an afternoon walk upon my arrival at 2:30 ish. If your dog enjoys car rides I would also love to take them on adventures to get coffee, or visit my parents (they live just 10 blocks from me). It’s really whatever your dog is accustomed to I will provide. I live in a spacious apartment 1 bed 2 bath. My building has a dog park in the complex, but I prefer to walk in my neighborhood. It’s a beautiful area with lots of waterfront and grass in front of the homes for exploring. In my apartment, Dogs are allowed on all the furniture but if that’s not allowed in your house I won’t encourage it.
“Lisa was great! I felt very comfortable leaving my 2 cats in her care. She sent photos and updates of them at every visit. I recommend this sitter and would book her again in the future.”
About: Hello! 🐾 Taking care of animals never feels like a job. I’ve spent over a decade walking, caring for, and (most importantly) snuggling dozens of dogs and cats, and I truly love being around animals of all kinds. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs a long walk or a shy cat who wants quiet company, I meet every pet where they are with patience, attention, and lots of affection. At home, I’ve been a proud cat mom for 13 years to my two sweet tabbies, Rosita and Emilio, so I understand how much pets are family. I’ll treat yours with the same care, respect, and love, plus plenty of updates and photos so you always feel connected. Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved, even when you’re not home 🤍 I am a self-employed writer and musician working remotely and I can stay with your pet all day at home, feed them and care for them, and walk them twice or three times a day in the morning and the evening. I can walk and care for your pets in your home, play with them and give them lots of love. I cannot take care of pets in my own home at the moment.
“Stephanie was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my cat, Saber! 🐾 She was clean, organized, and left my home in amazing condition. I especially appreciated how detailed her notes were — she really took the time to communicate and keep me updated, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Saber was very well cared for, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”
“So incredibly sweet and responsive! We are so grateful for her being able and willing to take care of our fur babies! Our little one is incredibly shy with new people and she was able to work with him so well. Super appreciative!”
“Thank you Charlotte for watching over Teddy, you took great care of him & I appreciate it. Your thank you note was such a sweet touch, I will definitely be reaching out if I need a sitter again!”
“Julianna is the best! She is so kind and always makes my cat Squid comfortable, entertained, and feel loved! She is dependable and always goes above and beyond!! Always happy to have her care!!!”
About: I’ve took care of a lot of stray cats and dogs. I’m always babysitting my friends’ pets and I have 4 of my own so I have a lot of patience and I know to care for them really well. I’d love to care for your fur baby :) I currently only work nights so I can do drop in visits in the morning and afternoon and after my work shifts if needed. I have Friday and Saturday free so I can do visits anytime of the day. I have a big space for your pet, two friendly cats and a dog to keep them company. I also live with one other animal loving person so they will get all the cuddles!
About: Hi! I’m Julia, a dog lover based in South Beach. I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, company, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have a sweet rescue dog at home, so I currently welcome small and medium-sized dogs that are friendly with other dogs. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! 🐾 I work from home and flexible with my time. Meeting your dog will not be locked alone in the appartment. I stay at home most of the days working Prioritize safety, comfort and whatever your dog needs. Just let me know any specific needs - I will care about your dog as a VIP guest!
“Fantastic pet sitter for our two cats while we were on vacation. Irina was also great about sending us photos and updates, which put our minds at ease. We felt completely confident leaving our two kitties in her care and will definitely be booking her again!”
“Katherine was a great choice to watch our cat! She was very communicative and made sure the boxes were all checked before we even left town :) She also didn’t hesitate to go above and beyond to clean up hairballs and let us know! Would recommend for sure!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Miami Beach
We recently started using Mary for dog sitting, and it’s been an excellent experience from the start. She is incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Our dog warmed up to her right away, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our dog usually doesn’t warm up to people when she first meets them. It’s not easy to find someone you fully trust with your pet, but Mary has exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.
Dayron is truly such a blessing! It gives me complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in such loving, caring hands while I’m away. He treats Panda like his own, and it’s clear how much genuine affection and attention he gives him. Having someone so sweet, reliable, and trustworthy makes all the difference. I know Panda has a wonderful buddy in Dayron. Highly recommend!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Miami Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Miami Beach choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Miami Beach with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Miami Beach. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
