About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for many years and understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I live in the Wilton Manors area and look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Please check my calendar for my most up-to-date availability. I’m flexible and typically available for the daytime, evenings, and overnight stays to fit your pet’s needs. I always prioritize safety, carefully follow each owner’s instructions, and maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in loving hands.
“Maya was wonderful with our Bulldog Bruno. She was consistently on time for her drop-in visits, is very mature and responsible. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.”

About: I've always had a deep connection with dogs. I bring a very calming canine energy, and trust is gained quickly. Anyone who has a dog(s) and knows me well will ask me to sit for them when they can't provide the care their dogs need. When I retired from my successful 45 year sales career, I had planned on getting a dog. As it's turned out, my friends and neighbors with dogs have kept me very busy. And it's been the most fulfilling and gratifying chapter of my life. I just have an innate ability to connect with dogs and what I give to them, they give back to me. It's been a very rewarding time in my life now that I get to do what I love best: to be surrounded with canine company. And I can unequivocally and honestly say I'm very good at it. As I said, I'm retired and can easily accommodate the needs of prospective clients. I'm readily available and am very flexible with you and your dog's schedules. I live in my recently renovated condo in the very upscale community of Coral Ridge in Fort Lauderdale. It's a small two-story residence easily accessible to lush parks and magnificent estate homes. We have excellent security with a Neighborhood Watch and private 24 hour Coral Ridge Patrols. Patrolling
About: I have had a pet companion for 35 years. I have raised 3 wonderful miniature dachshund. I have been pet sitting for almost 10 years now. I have cared for diabetic dogs as well as elderly ones. I am Semi-retired and available 6 days a week Mon-Sat. Sundays are possible for certain situations. I always try to accommodate for your pets specific needs. I live in a condo in Wilton Manors so therefore I can only accept small dogs for petting sitting at my home. Any size dog though for sitting for dogs in their home.
“Bianca was an awesome pet sitter! So happy we found her. 😊 Our two babies loved how she played with them and always made certain that they had fun. We will definitely use her again. 👍 Highly recommend 👌”

About: Loving, Reliable Care for Your Pup — Now With More Time to Give! Hi there! I’ve been on Rover since 2023, and now that I’m semi-retired, I’m excited to dedicate even more of my time to caring for dogs. Spending my days with pups is one of my greatest joys — whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company. I share my home with my friendly dog, Kyle, who loves meeting new furry friends. I’m patient, attentive, and truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and needs. Your pup will be treated like family here! Whether you need drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I’m here to help and make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged baby. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m semi-retired, I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to each dog I care for. My day usually includes morning and evening walks, regular playtime, and lots of attention and affection throughout the day. I also build in time for feeding, potty breaks, and any special routines or instructions a pet may have. Because I already care for my own dog, Kyle, I’m used to maintaining a consistent, calm, and pet-friendly environment. Adding another pup into the routine feels seamless — I truly enjoy it, and I make sure each dog gets the care and engagement needed. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and relaxed environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walks to playtime and rest. My dog, Kyle, is friendly and enjoys having company, so visiting pups always have a companion. I supervise all interactions, provide plenty of affection, and make sure each dog has their own space if they need quiet time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions carefully. I maintain the pet’s familiar routine, whether that involves walks, meals, medications, or special habits. I give them lots of attention, keep their environment tidy, and send regular updates so owners feel connected and reassured. No matter the service, my goal is always the same: to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well-loved. 🐾

About: I’m an experienced pet owner and sitter for dogs and cats from puppies and kittens to senior animals in your sitter! I look forward to meeting your fur babiesb I care for my own pets during the day and care for yours before and after work and also at lunch. I make it a priority to fit pet care into my life My cats have free range of the house but your pet will get one room separate from my cats where they have a big window and everything they need
“Kelly is so great with my puppy! She has great communication and sends the cutest pictures!! She also takes great care of my home while she is there.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and is something I just love. Whenever I go to see a friend who owns a dog, I spend more time with the dog often times! I don’t have any of my own at the moment since my partner has allergies, but being there to dog sit will allow me to spread that love and care with them. I have watched many of my friends dogs overnight or just for the day due to my hybrid schedule - which is wonderful! I work a hybrid role - so I might be able to offer walks during the day on some days of the week. But weekends work best for me to stay over and dog sit (for those traveling or don’t want their dog in someone else’s home). This will help build trust and love with the little ones, while keeping them in the comfort of their own home. I always want to ask, what are the do’s and dont’s since every dog is different. I want to make sure they are able to relax and enjoy the company as much as I would. If I’m able to stay at the sitters home, I will routinely send updates or photos (as desired) and give them peace of mind to know that they’re little ones are safe with me. I absolutely adore dogs and I want to make them as loved as they deserve. If I take them for walks, recap anything that they did to report back to the owner as well.
“I was fortunate enough to hire Sean as a cat sitter for my girl Daisy after scheduling a trip out of town somewhat last minute. He was the only sitter who promptly responded to my booking request, and I was able to immediately schedule a meet and greet with him. Sean listened to all my instructions, and even asked relevant questions for things that I may have missed. I was initially very nervous to leave Daisy at home, but Sean’s care put me at ease. Sean followed all of my instructions, left the apartment as clean as I had left it, regularly updated me with photos, and was generally good with communication. Daisy is skittish and shy around people, but really seemed to warm up to Sean by the end. Sean is a conscientious person who truly cares about animals, and I would not hesitate to hire him again.”

“Aileen provided exceptional service attending to Phelps while I was away for 10 days. She was always prompt and courteous. I felt comfortable with giving her access to my home and everything was as I left it. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: I have alot of experience with all types of Dogs from seniors to disabled, as I've been fostering and rescuing for 17yrs now. I work from home part time so I am available 24/7. I am a very responsible dog owner myself. I cook for my dogs, give them supplements, red light therapy(lol), and make sure I always walk with an air bottle or taser to keep safe from aggressive dogs off leash. You have absolutely nothing to worry about if you leave your baby's in my care! I am currently working part time from home so I am very flexible and easily available especially last minute. I am very active so if your dog has alot of energy we can go for a nice jog! I have a 6 foot locked and gated backyard. Walm my dogs 2-3 times a day and dog park when able to. I am a bit OCD with safety. I never leave a home unless I check to see if stove top and dryer is off.
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’ve cared for shy pups who need extra time and patience to warm up, energetic dogs who thrive on walks and play, and senior dogs who need gentle, attentive support. I have a special place in my heart for pets with unique needs. My beloved pug, Maggie, developed diabetes later in life and required insulin, along with extra care and support after becoming blind and deaf. That experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and paying close attention to the little things that help pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, some extra playtime, medication support, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I take pride in providing personalized care and treating every dog like they’re part of my own family. After years of caring for my own pet and helping friends and family with theirs, I’m excited to now offer my experience and love for dogs through Rover. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I schedule my day to ensure each visit receives my full attention. I plan dedicated time for drop-in visits throughout the day and prioritize punctuality, consistency, and clear communication so your pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow your detailed instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I aim to create a calm, reassuring experience while you’re away and maintain a clean, secure environment before leaving. You’ll receive timely updates and photos after each visit for complete peace of mind.

I usually use friends or family to watch my senior husky, but didn't have anyone last minute and so I hired Alyssa. She took care of my Senior Husky and made sure to spend quality time with her during each visit. She's reliable, dependable, and was always on time. Both my husky and I appreciate her for taking good care of my pup while I was away. I will gladly recommend Alyssa!

Kara was wonderful with our Yorkie, Poco and our two cats. Poco had special requirements as he is a bit anxious and she was kind to him and he even let her pet him. The cats were well taken care off. Kara updated us with pictures and had good communication. She demonstrated resourcefulness when a bull frog came into the cat area, she protected the cats, removed the frog and even cleaned the area the frog got "dirty". :) We were happy with her visits.
Nevaeh is wonderful! My big dogs loved her, my guinea pigs appreciated her, and my cats even decided that she was a friend. She respected my home and followed all of the instructions for them. She communicates quickly and kindly. I will choose her again and again.

Wow! Catherine was amazing. She was so sweet with our pup. She made sure she checked in on time for drop-ins and sent a lot of photos to make sure we felt comfortable while we were away from Lono. Catherine was very good at communicating with us during our time away. We would 100% use her again and will be in the upcoming months. Thanks Catherine!

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 Oakland Park 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.

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 Oakland Park with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
