About: I can assure you I will adapt to your pets' needs, even if extravagant to keep them happy, to assure they always feel secure and at home. I have dog shelter experience, dog sitting experience and experience with my own puppies as I have successfully raised and trained three. I am mostly always at home. If your dog is special needs, needs medication, or is a senior, I am always willing to learn how to take care of them. Otherwise, if you have any requests or so, ask away. I will not shy away or slack on the little things, especially if your pet really needs something. I am always right here if you happen to have any questions about my services. I have my own senior pup who I take care of. Daily walks and treats are a necessity! Pet care is incredibly dog-specific and what works for one might not work for the other. I think being flexible and listening to your dogs needs is a constant need. I care for dogs by following instruction not only from owner but pup, being open to their needs and regulating their emotions throughout our visit.

About: I have trained my own dog from he was a puppy and was 12 years old. I loved caring for him and teaching him new things. Regardless of the dog breed I will watch the dog, I truly have a passion for dogs. So this is a great way for me to get involved with dogs. And love your dog as my own, this past August of 2024, I put my best friend down selflessly and just want to show same love I did to him to your little love. 🐶 Pet care is perfect for my routine because throughout the week I hardly work and with enough notice I can get the time off to dog sit. So I can play and stay with the dog for as long as you need during the week. When I take care of my own dog I love to use the harness because he chokes himself when he walks. I take him on a long walk until he pees and poops. Sometimes to loosen the dog up I will play with my dog to tire him out and let him have to go poop. I’m currently working part time and only receiving three days of work only a few hours, but I am available with set days off being Sunday and Wednesdays. I can typically request off with 2 weeks advance notice. I have a fenced in yard and no longer have a dog. So the sole attention and focus will be all on your dog. Your dog will be able to run in the fenced in back yard or go on long walks.

About: I care for every dog like they are my own. I’ve been dog sitting and caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities — from small dogs like Shih Tzus, Yorkies, and Chihuahuas to larger breeds like Boxers, Pit Bulls, and Golden Retrievers. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I focus on making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and at home while you’re away. I follow each dog’s routine for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and rest so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. I provide a spacious, secure environment with a fenced yard, plenty of room to move around, and a calm home atmosphere. I also offer crates if needed, along with toys, treats, and blankets to keep your dog comfortable and entertained. I’m available for overnight boarding, daycare, and evening or weekend care, and I always make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and dogs in my care are never treated like an afterthought. I work remotely, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day to provide supervision, potty breaks, feeding, and attention. This means dogs are not left alone for long periods and always have someone nearby to check on them, interact with them, and make sure they are comfortable and safe. In addition, I have a trusted family support system, including my mom, uncles and grandparents, who help provide extra supervision and companionship when needed. Dogs staying with me receive consistent care, structure, and attention all day long, not just in the mornings or evenings. This allows me to provide reliable overnight boarding and daycare in a calm, home-style environment. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family in a calm, safe, and supervised environment. I focus on keeping their routine as close to home as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication instructions, and any special care requests exactly as provided. Dogs get a healthy balance of playtime, walks, rest, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. I provide a secure, clean, and spacious home with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, along with toys, blankets, and crates if needed. Dogs are never left unsupervised outside, and I carefully manage interactions between dogs to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. I also send regular photo and video updates so owners always know how their dog is doing. My goal is for every pet to feel calm, cared for, and at home while you’re away, and for every owner to feel complete peace of mind.

About: With years of hands on experience caring for both my own pets and those of others, I bring a deep understanding of animal needs and behaviors. My genuine love for animals ensures that every pet in my care is treated with the same compassion and attention as if they were my own. I currently work from home Monday and Friday. Saturday and Sunday I am always home. I commute to work only Tuesday through Thursday. However, my day job is flexible allowing me time to care for animals. I can crate your pet in my home with frequent potty breaks and plenty of time to play. Or allow them to be loose under my supervision in my house. I believe strongly on taking dogs out always on leash. This always keeps them safe. If you prefer house visits, I can do visits too. I have a designated play area fenced with toys for your pet to play, have fun and exercise.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and over 8 years of hands on experience caring for them, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I’ve trained my own dogs to have calm, respectful manners like sitting, waiting before meals, and playing gently, and I always focus on building trust, patience, and positive behavior. I’m very comfortable with feeding time and reading body language, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed. I’m strong and patient, so I can support senior dogs when they need extra help, and I also have the energy to keep up with playful pups. My home has a large indoor space and a secure backyard with grass, concrete, and small rocks, giving pets safe options to play, explore, or relax based on their personality. I truly treat every pet like family and make sure they feel loved, calm, and cared for while you’re away. I also love cats and am happy to care for them too, they are just as welcome and comfortable in my care. I work part-time with short shifts that are usually only about three hours, which means I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of attention and supervision. I have a very calm and consistent routine, waking up early and going to sleep early, so pets in my care get structure, regular potty breaks, meals on time, and a peaceful environment. Because I’m home so often, I’m able to provide lots of companionship, playtime, and comfort, and your pet will never feel alone or overlooked while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, and I focus on creating a calm, structured, and secure environment. My home is in a safe, quiet neighborhood, and I have a full alarm and camera system for added security and peace of mind. I also have a large, secure backyard where pets can play safely, and there are no dogs in the neighboring homes, which helps reduce stress, noise, and unwanted interactions. I’m patient, attentive, and always supervise pets closely, treating them with the same care and responsibility I would want for my own. I want every owner to feel confident and fully at ease knowing their best friend is in safe, loving hands.

About: With a lifetime of fun and beautiful memories with my own pets, I strive to care for your loved ones as if they were my own. I’m grateful and lucky to have lots of free time to enjoy tons of walks and play while we can. I don’t have pets of my own at the moment and I truly enjoy creating beautiful memories with every pet I host. I have more than enough room on the couch for cuddles and naps. Comfort and safety are my priority. They will feel right at home.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs from all backgrounds. I am the founder of Pup Pit Stop, a 501(c)(3) rescue that has helped save 27 dogs since opening in May. I've also been fostering dogs for the past 2.5 years and have owned dogs my entire life. This experience has allowed me to work confidently with puppies, senior dogs, large and small breeds, and dogs with different temperaments and behavioral needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I provide patient, personalized care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. 🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I own three dogs of my own, am the founder of Pup Pit Stop Rescue, and have been fostering dogs for the past 2.5 years. Caring for dogs through feeding, walking, exercise, training reinforcement, enrichment, and companionship is something I do every day. Because of my experience with rescue and foster dogs, I'm comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. Whether your pet needs an active adventure or a calm, reassuring presence, I make sure they receive the attention, care, and love they deserve while you're away. 🐾 Because I only provide care in my clients' homes, I focus on maintaining your pet's normal routine in the environment where they are most comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, provide walks, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while you're away.

“Haby was simply incredible! She was quick to respond and really jumped in to walk my anxious pup, Luna last minute. My mom was sick and couldn’t walk her and Luna is a very special case. Haby did so great with her and was so patient. She didn’t push Luna to like her and gave her the space she needed to win her over. I recommend Haby for any pet who is special needs, shy, anxious, and all of the above. She was great and am grateful to have met her. Thank you for all you did for Luna, Haby!”

We have two very big, rambunctious Pitties who can be a handful, but Madison took incredible care of them.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my genuine love for animals of all kinds from fish to cats to dogs and my hands on experience caring for them in all stages of life. I’ve cared for up to five dogs at once in my own home, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets and making sure each one gets the attention they need. I also have experience with both puppy training, including potty training, and senior pet care, id like to think that I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or medication schedules, I truly enjoy every part of caring for animals and treat them like family. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine! I work very close to home, which means I can easily stop by to check in, feed, walk, or just spend some quality time playing and cuddling with your pets during the day. I also finish work by 3:00 PM, so after that, I’m fully available to give them all my attention. On weekends, I’m completely dedicated to them whether it’s playtime, walks, or just relaxing together. Spending time with animals is truly the best part of my day, and I always make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always aim to create a safe, loving, and stress free environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and snuggles and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for at all times. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at home. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own and make sure their pets feel secure in their familiar space. I always keep communication open with updates and photos, so pet parents can feel confident and connected while they’re away.

I had an amazing experience with her! She took such great care of my two fur babies and kept me updated with texts and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The handoff was super easy, and she even came out to help me, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Communication was excellent, everything was clear with no confusion, and she was very flexible and easy to work with. I truly appreciated her service and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be rebooking with her! 🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Miramar is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $24 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 7,331 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Miramar. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Miramar. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Miramar after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Miramar. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers 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 walker.
