“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!”

“Would give 6 stars if we could. Could not have found anyone better than Milena. Great communication, very punctual, reliable, caring and attentive. We have 2 cats, 1 very friendly and 1 very shy. Both got along with her from the first day. She stopped by to return the keys and they came running when they heard her voice. We hope she’s available next time we travel!”

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!

I came home to happy, calm, well-cared-for cats. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for loving and dependable pet care.”

“Zoe is truly wonderful. This was her second time watching Karma, and he absolutely loves her, which says everything. She is reliable, kind, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. She kept me updated, was flexible when my travel plans changed, and handled everything smoothly and professionally. It is such a relief to have someone you can fully trust with your home and your pet. I feel very lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an amazing sitter.”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I got my first pup when I was 5 years old, and caring for dogs has been a big part of my life ever since. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs for neighbors, friends, and family by providing drop-in visits, feeding them, refreshing their water, taking them on walks, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their parents are away. In addition to caring for pets, I have professional experience as a caregiver for seniors. That roll strengthened my patience, reliability, attentiveness, and ability to follow routines and provide compassionate care. I bring those same qualities to every pet I look after, treating each one with love like I would my own family. I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, walks, playtime, feedings, and providing companionship throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to be dependable, attentive, and accommodate each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a very dog-friendly community with plenty of safe places for dogs to enjoy. There’s a designated dog park/play area downstairs where dogs can exercise and socialize, along with beautiful walking paths throughout the neighborhood and along the waterfront for enjoyable walks. Inside my home, I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. My apartment has two balconies, and pets are always supervised to ensure their safety. I also make sure to follow each owner’s care instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special preferences to help your pet feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both your home and your pet with the utmost respect. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, keep you updated with photos and messages, and ensure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

I am moving in a couple months, so I don't have a time consuming schedule or responsibilities. I have more than enough time throughout the day to make time for your precious pet! I love to keep my attention on the animals. If i'm with them, I doubt i'll focus on anything else!! i'm very good at keeping them clean and observing behaviors.

About: Dogs were always present growing up. I’m my adult life I had 2 white west-highland white terriers which I adore. Good with impossible dogs . Many people always say to me “my dog never acts this way around people.” I believe dogs are truely keen on energies and emotions. So with that being said I have cared for 8 weeks to end of 14 yr life cycles and all the care that entails I am currently self employed but because of the economy my work is slow quite a bit. Sometimes off in a two week time period I have no dogs at the moment and I terribly want one but my schedule doesn’t accomodate a last minute work schedule where I have to travel

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, growing up with two golden retrievers, Buddy and Buckley, who made me fall in love with caring for dogs of all kinds. I’m also a proud “aunt” to two rescue pups, Monkey and Saul, and have experience helping family and friends with their dogs over the years. I specialize in dog walking and drop-in visits, whether your pup needs a good walk, playtime, feeding, or just some company during the day. I’ve cared for both big and small dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals - I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. Whether your pup needs a structured walk, mid-day visit, feeding, or playtime, I’m happy to align with their routine. I prioritize reliability, consistency, and clear communication, so you always know your pet is being cared for thoughtfully. While my current focus is on walks and drop-ins, I’m open to discussing in-home care options as needed. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. During walks and drop-in visits, I take a thoughtful, attentive approach - paying close attention to your dog’s behavior, energy level, and individual needs. I aim to create a calm, positive experience so your pet feels safe and cared for in your absence. I also make sure every visit includes not just great care, but genuine affection - whether that’s playtime, attention, or plenty of cuddles. I provide consistent updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I treat every dog with the same level of care and love I would give my own.

About: As a devoted animal lover and self-proclaimed "dog whisperer," I understand the unique bond we share with our furry friends. With a deep sense of responsibility, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and care they deserve. And while I love and connect with dogs, I find cats absolutely adorable and believe they are a special gift from above. I am committed to staying close to animals and providing a safe, nurturing environment for them. You can trust me to care for your pets with the same dedication and compassion I would give my own. Your peace of mind is my priority! I run my own business and have the flexibility to create my own schedule. With enough notice, I can easily accommodate my schedule to meet your pets needs with priority and ease. I prioritize safety by paying attention to details, specifically when it comes to following the pet owner’s specific care routines. From there, it's all about creating a secure environment and ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved.

About: Cuidar mascotas es el mejor trabajo del mundo!! I have been pet sitting for 15 plus years. I have always had a dog and cat of my own since I was a child. I can’t imagine life without them. I enjoy taking care of my friends, family and client’s pets even more since I moved to the USA and miss my own pets so much. I am available for taking your pet for walks, bath and brushing, assuring hygiene of the pet and environment, have fun playing, feeding them even if special attention is needed (like hand feeding) 😊 it has happened! I can adapt and implement their routines as needed. I have a part time job currently, looking forward into making pet sitting my full time job, because honestly...doesn't feel like a job to me... so if you have to travel or simply don't wanna let your baby alone COUNT ON ME!! It will be my pleasure... reach at any time I HAVE no pets living with me at this time. Taking care of yours so they don’t feel lonely makes my day. Since little girl I would rescue dogs in my native country.To me they are the expression of unconditional love

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats before along with walking and giving them their medication if needed. I worked for a year at the Kitty Campus Shelter in Miami Beach I’m available on most days outside of saturdays when I volunteer. I usually can come in at any time whether it be early or staying over late. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to their routine and personality. I always follow any instructions provided closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and medication if necessary. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and I try to maintain their normal routine to reduce stress. Cleanliness and safety are top priorities, and I keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are in good hands. Whether I’m a guest in their home or welcoming them into mine, I treat every pet like they’re my own :)

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.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Miami Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Miami Beach is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $41 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,597 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Miami Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Miami Beach. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
