About: Haven't met an animal yet that hasn't allowed me to connect with them in a positive way, I love pets of all kinds and have a long history of caring for animals both in the home and on the farm. I will help you with your dog, cat, bird, reptile, small furry pet and fish, whether it be just one or an entire fish room. I have pets and understand how important their care is, especially when I'm not available for whatever reason! You can trust me to do what's expected in the care of your pets, they are my first priority while in my care and rest assured I will provide quality and loving care to them while you're away from them and your home. Totally new with Rover, ask to check availability please, I'd love to help you out with your pets and house-sitting needs. Will be able to update soon. I have a large fenced yard and have fully vaxxed, spayed and neutered dogs and cats at home, plenty of room for your pet crate if I board your pet(s). Also can travel to your home daily or stay with them if needed.
“This was my first river experience ever and I gotta say that I was very pleased!! She gave daily updates with notes and pictures. Definitely made the time away from my little girl less stressful! Highly recommend”
“Mica was amazing with my 3 babies! She sent lots of photos and updates, stayed longer to ensure they all got some extra attention, and left the house spotless and picked up. I could tell my pups were happy and well cared for the entire time. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in such good hands—highly recommend Mica and will definitely book again!”
“Makayla is always very responsive and has been flexible with me when times have changed. She’s wonderful about sending Biden’s or photos to let me see Fiadh is being loved while I’m away. Thank you 🙏”
“We were very pleased with Shania’s drop in visit and excellent care for our two Australian Shepherds and our elder, blind Whoodle. Shania’s background in animal care, her timeliness, excellent communication skills and punctual follow through gave us worry free confidence for our time away. We enthusiastically recommend Shania for in-home pet sitting!”
About: Ever since an early age I have been the one my family or friends call on for animal advice or to be the pet sitter. Animals have always been my passion and I have been taking care of the family pets since the age of 5. I have experience administering medication(pills,liquid,shots) and also have taken care of plenty of senior animals and puppies(11 at once😅). I have experience training dogs on agility courses, basic commands, crate training, hurdles, etc. I’m available to watch after your beloved pets anytime you need, as I’ve been blessed to have a pretty open schedule as of right now. I will care for your pet just like I would my own. I have a large fenced in yard that is about half an acre.
“Tausha previously came for a meet and greet. We really like her knowledge and love of animals. She's easy going and has a calming presence. This visit I booked her to come over so that I could show her the routine for our animals before she actually stays. My dogs seem very comfortable with her and I feel confident leaving them in her care.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and big dogs and I love all of them. I’ve been dog sitting for close family and friends for a long time now and I truly enjoy it! I’m a full time college student working a part time job, but I still have plenty of free time to care for your pets! I’m able to make time for the dogs I have watched before. When I care for a pet in a clients home, I usually follow instructions they leave to a T. I also pay attention to the animal and anything they might need! I’m a tidy person as well, and often leave homes better than I found them.
“Lucy was great to watch my Jango last minute for the weekend of my wedding! I knew he was in good hands when she was giving me constant updates and pictures. Very communicative and my boy was happy being with her too!”
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with lots of love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. You can count on regular updates and plenty of cute pics! I work a regular job during the week and am mostly available Thursdays through Sundays to pet sit. I usually always have that whole weekend off so whenever you need someone to watch for those days, I am always available. I spoil my pets. I give them lots of treats and lots of love and I will do the same for my clients pets and whatever they need me to do

Mackenzie was attentive to our dog's needs (medicine & potty), visits were timely, and she even provided photos & videos from her time watching our pups. She was a great sitter for our two dogs and we wouldn't hesitate to ask her again to come out on our next trip!
Megan was so attentive to our pups while we were away on vacation. She kept us informed when one showed signs of an ear infection and even carried our packages in. She was responsive and spent lots of time loving on our pups! Already booking our next trip with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Oakland Park is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $30 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 November 2026, there are 121 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oakland Park. 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oakland Park. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
