About: Hi! I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. I’m committed to following your pet’s normal routine, providing plenty of attention and exercise, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure in my care. I’ll take the time to accommodate individual needs and routines. All the little details are important to me, I’ll keep you updated with photos & messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands! My priority will always be to treat your pet like family and give them the same love, patience and attention I would want and give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet :) I currently work some part time shifts, but Im primarily a stay at home dog mom🥰, which gives me plenty of flexibility to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m happy to work with your schedule and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs! I live in a safe, pet friendly apartment community with a dog park, and my 1 yr old toy poodle Stella, is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. If your pup is comfortable around other dogs, they’ll have a little playmate during their stay! And if you prefer care in your home or need pet walking, I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s environment and routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible.
About: Over the years I have cared for a variety of animals, including domestic, exotic, and livestock. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their medically needy animals over the past decade and I am now opening that service up to Rover. I'm not a vet tech but I am comfortable and experienced administering a variety of medical treatments like insulin injections, pill regiments, eye drops/skin ointments, and subq fluids. Leaving town with a pet can be stressful, especially one that needs specialized care. I can help. Currently over all I have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have my own small business that is sporadic gig work on the weekends. Most events last 4 to 6 hours, maximum 8 hours, and not every weekend has events. I prefer to pet sit in the home the pets belong to. I find that with most animals it's incredibly stressful to move them, staying in their home with them minimalizes that stress. It also allows for easier medicine administration. I like to meet the pets and owners ahead of staying with them, this is to again reduce the stress on your pet when I show up without you as well as to observe the quality of care you are administering to your fur babies.
“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.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Estefania was so sweet, attentive, and patient — the cats instantly felt comfortable around her, which says a lot. She handled everything with such care and warmth. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their pets!”
About: I have owned and loved dogs my entire life and have been taking care of all types of dogs professionally for 10 years. From puppies to seniors. All sizes, breeds and special needs. I’m semi retired and love taking care of other’s pets. Let me take care of your fur baby. I currently work remotely from home in beautiful Lauderdale By The Sea, and have the flexibility to spend time throughout the day with pets either playing or walking. Either in your home or my home. I live in a condo that allows 2 dogs and only a half mile from the beach to allow a nice walk for your pet I have cared for pets in my condo with the ability for many walks per day as well as a fenced in dog park in my community for outside play and a little fun in the sun. I also have sat for dogs and cats in their homes as well if preferred.
“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.”
“Genesis is very good and gentle with animals she spent extra time with my puppy and went out of her way to make sure he didn't leave a mess in the house. She was thorough, I would definitely recommend Genesis to care for your pet.”
“Jenny took great care of our 4 month old puppy! He is high energy and needs a lot of attention and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her hands. We received updates and pictures throughout the day which is always appreciated. Definitely recommend and look forward to using Jenny’s services again in the future!”
“I was so nervous about using Rover for the first time but Deborah was so nice and understanding. She sent me the cutest pictures and videos of my baby to let me know exactly what was going on everyday. She also went above and beyond and got my mail for me, took beretta for walks, and even cleaned the living room for me to return home. I could not recommend her more to anyone else!!”
“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: I have three years of experience caring for dogs, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I’m currently offering drop-in visits and house sitting. I’m excited to meet new clients and make some wonderful new furry friends! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available throughout the week and can easily make time for drop-in visits, house sitting, and plenty of attention for your dog. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and respect every dog’s individual routine. I’ll make sure your pet receives the care, attention, exercise, and companionship you prefer.
“Shelby was awesome! She kept us updated throughout our trip to help keep peace of mind. Frankie loved the extra attention given, will most definitely be contacting her again for any upcoming travel. Thanks again!”
“Kristina is great! She took awesome care of my kitty, had good communication and was reliable. We had some unexpected changes due to a tropical storm and delayed/cancelled flights and Kristina was very helpful and flexible. I highly recommend!!”
About: Small dogs are my specialty! Neighbors, friends, colleagues and family turn to me without hesitation for consistent, safe, reliable pet care while they are away or in last minute emergency situations . I have experience with senior pets, pets that are in need of medication, pets that have CHF, pets with skin, problems/ issues, or allergies, and vestibular disease. I work a full-time job with a one hour lunch period (to attend to your pets needs midday) Well behaved pets (with the owners approval or owners request) can be brought with me to work in a very small 3 person quiet office setting. Monday-Friday and I am available all weekend. I have experience with crate trained, free roaming, in-home hospice situations with multiple (and sometimes time sensitive medications) , CHF(congestive heart failure) and special feeding instructions. I am also able to take your pet on long walks beyond the yard and even for a few mile run/jog (for dogs whose owners request this service, usually my larger breed pet owners or working dog pet owners).
About: Grew up having and loving dogs. After buying our own home with a backyard and space, we welcomed our boy Maverick (cockapoo; 20lbs) who is our whole world. He really deepened my love for dogs to another level. I would love share my affection and love onto other fur pals. Remote work has allowed me flexibility to be present and active with my pup and I can only hope to help others that may not be able to during the days/weeks. 🙏🏽 Working from home has allowed me to have the freedom to take my own pup on walks and help him feel stimulated throughout the day. I can only hope to share the same routines and strategies for other dogs. I’d love to utilize our home to help at any capacity. 💖 Our pup was crate trained since being a pup. After 8 months of building that trust, he is now completely crate free and well trained. He is not aggressive just corrective at times and but all depends on the dog he meets. The love I have for Mav transcends to all dogs I encounter. 🙏🏽. We have a completely fenced yard with plenty of room to run around and play! We also have indoor space to tuck in another crate or bed. I am able to take incremental pee breaks outside in the backyard and walks daily around our safe and very dog-friendly neighborhood. I also have a Furbo pet camera indoors that adds an extra layer of security at any moment.
About: A vacation for your dog while you enjoy your time. I am a Responsible, loving and experienced dog sitter. I have owned Malteses for 45 yrs. I will care and love your puppy and small dog as my own. I have a clean smoke free, fenced in yard with a separate fenced area with a doggie door from the patio area, I have a coach for special needs so I can take them outside. Your four-legged baby is allowed on the furniture is allowed to sleep in bed unless you object. I can provide you with pictures and updates so that you are still connected with your loved one I would like to meet you and your little one to assure that we all get along. I comb them, wipe their private areas and wipe their faces after meals!

I am so grateful to Krystal for the last-minute help with my dog, Sadi! Sadi was so well cared for, and getting updates and photos gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Highly reliable, kind, and responsive—I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!
Marissa was truly AMAZING! 🥹❤️ I reached out to her last minute after someone cancelled on me, and she was the first person willing to step in and take care of my pups. She kept me updated throughout and made sure they were fed, happy, and well taken care of. I’m so grateful for her help and highly recommend her! 🐶
Aaron was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, his communication was excellent. Responsive, professional, and reassuring. It was clear he genuinely cares about the dogs, and seeing how comfortable, happy, and affectionate they were with him spoke volumes. They took to him immediately, which gave us so much peace of mind. We would happily trust Aaron with our dogs again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive dog walker!
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.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Oakland Park 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 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. 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 .

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.
