“Gabriella was amazing. Fun, kind, and Milo loved her. She helped take care of our baby on our wedding day, even came to the venue to take pictures with him and drove him back! Thank you!”

“This was my first time using River to house sit my 5 fur babies. I was scared to try it out and to trust someone who I didn't know but Ernesto was such a nice and genuine person not only to me and my family but to all my Doggies as well. He naturally has an aura to animals, and they loved him since day one. Ernesto knew it was my birthday and left me a beautiful detail on the table for me to see when I came back from my trip. Thank you Ernesto for all the love, communication, videos and photos of the doggies throughout the day and giving me peace of mind while I was away.”

“Nicole was excellent! This was the first time we have ever had an overnight house sitter and she did a great job taking care of our two male Shar Peis. She even came by a couple days in advance to meet them briefly so that they would be comfortable with her on the actual evening!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and I’m happy to follow their normal routine and any special instructions you provide. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time and attention. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I can also accommodate different routines and schedules whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live with my wife, who also loves animals, so your pet will be in a warm and caring home. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, and routine instructions provided by you. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while they’re with me.
“I can’t thank Vanessa enough. I was away in Istanbul for 28 days, and she stayed in my home to care for my dog,. She treated him like a baby—with love, attention, and incredible care. Every day, she sent me updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I felt like I had left Coko with family. I returned home feeling calm, happy, and incredibly grateful. Vanessa is professional, warm, and trustworthy. Thank you for everything!”


About: I have worked at the Humane Society of Greater Miami and taken care of pets for about 5 years now, ranging from tiny to large dogs such as Malteses to Labradors, I have also taken care of different/several cats and even have gotten the most antisocial ones to be comfortable with me! I have literally seen every kind of dog and cat from my time at the Humane Society, I was there for all of my high school years and some of the beginning of my college career. Since then I’ve been taking care of family’s, friend’s, and neighbors’ pets off and on. I’m definitely the kind of person that will say hi to your pet before you (no offense) and treat them as my own. I’ve had a dog for 12 years and with that came my growth in love for animals and always ensuring they’re properly taken care of. I will always make sure they’re safe and don’t worry, I like to take and send so many pics of them to you to make sure you know how they’re doing at all times! I’m currently not working since I have started nursing school! It takes up a chunk of my time since I’m usually studying but I feel like that makes me great for a sitter position, I’ve taken care of different pets for years and my schedule is free anytime after 2pm on Wednesdays, and anytime Thursday-Saturday. I always ensure to create a safe environment whenever I’m around anyone’s pet, they don’t know me so I always try to have them warm up to me. I like to make sure they’re safe under my watch as well as having fun! To me, it’s not just having someone take a peek and make sure your pet is alright but to make sure they know they have the company and presence of someone so they don’t feel alone or abandoned. Whether I’m taking them for walks or spending a night with them to make sure they’re not lonely, I will always make sure they are having fun, safe, and relay any important information (or cute pics) to you! After all, they’re your family and I wouldn’t treat them any less than that.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. From a young age, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, bathing, and giving my dogs the love and attention they need. I’ve always formed incredibly strong bonds with my pets and genuinely see them as members of the family. More recently, I rescued a French Bulldog who has become my absolute best friend. She has taught me even more about being patient, attentive, and understanding of a dog’s individual personality, needs, and routines. I’m someone who pays close attention to the little things—whether your pet is feeling nervous, needs extra cuddles, has lots of energy, or simply wants someone to keep them company. When your pet is in my care, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being treated with the same love, patience, and care I give my own dog. 🐾❤️ My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m very reliable and will always make sure your pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I’m also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and lots of love along the way! 🐾❤️ My goal is to make your time away stress-free while keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. 🐾 I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions before caring for them. I make sure they’re in a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and loved. I’m especially mindful of doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and anything else that could affect your pet’s safety. I also understand that every pet is different, so I never force interaction and always give them time to feel comfortable with me. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your fur baby is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely confident and at ease knowing your pet is being cared for like family. ❤️🐶
About: I have many many years of experience with dogs. Growing up with them was the best! I simply love them and would take care of them! I work from home and love spending time at my place. I will be your dog’s best friend and they’ll be my best friend! While I work on my projects I love having them next to me giving each other company and taking walks at the beginning and end of the day. I get everything ready to make them feel at home, allowing them to feel safe and most importantly, loved! I have a deeply understanding in dog body language. If the service is in their place I’ll make myself comfortable so they don’t feel like I am a stranger at their territory.
About: I’ve experince of taking care of the families friends i have been working for i work like i nanny and always stay with the pets at the ownes house because is less stressful for the pets if they stay in their environment while im taking care of them Since I've been living alone, I have a lot of availability to stay with pets, preferably in their homes. either during the week or on weekends. I only offer to care for pets in their own homes because it is less stressful for them to be in their own environment while their owners are away.
About: Growing up owning a dog (mini schnauzer) and now a cat, I was able to learn all of the important things that go along with pet care from a young age. As a Girl Scout, I spent countless hours volunteering my time at the humane society. I enjoyed my afternoons showing those lovely animals all my love and affection. I was looking for a job to do over the summer before college and discovered Rover! I am a huge animal lover and am free to watch any of your cute loveable pets any day of the week! I just graduated Harvard University and am available during my gap year to watch your pets in the Miami area. I will treat all of your pets with the upmost love and care. Spending time with animals is something that brings me so much joy!

“Sarah was very responsive to my queries and provided frequent updates and photos of Tashi, which made me feel more comfortable leaving my fur child for an extended period of time. We did have one hiccup where I wasn't able to get in touch with her for a day, but Tashi was fine and all was well.”


About: I’ve had several dogs as I grew up. Pitbulls mostly. I love playing, walking, talking and being around dogs. I know what to do and what not to do when it comes to dogs. It fits into my routine because everyday I walk my dog missy around our neighborhood. I feed her around a certain time, give the food time to digest then take her for a walk let her get everything out her system and let her enjoy leaving her scent and seeing the other dogs in our neighborhood. I have a fence/gate around my house in case a clients pet isn’t friendly or good around other animals. I have a personal area that their pet can be able to enjoy.
About: For each service I can offer loads of love and attention to your pet. I’ve had pets my entire life so I absolutely adore animals and being able to take care of them. I own a cat myself and wish I could have more. I love making animal friends and showing them they are loved and that they matter. I will always treat them as if they were my own. I will pick up after them, play with them, talk to them, give them treats (if that is allowed) and snuggle with them in cases of house sitting. As a little girl, I wanted to be a veterinarian because I posed such a love for animals at such a young age. Instead, I just became a human that is always looking for new animal friends.
About: I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to their behavior and make sure they always have fresh water, a clean space, and lots of supervision. In a client’s home, I respect their home and follow all care instructions exactly while keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, or companionship. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so I make sure every pet gets the time, care, and attention they deserve while keeping their routine as consistent as possible.

“Excellent sitter! Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of Mochi! Sophia kept Mochi on his schedule while providing him with lots of play and attention. Plus, she sent us tons of photos and videos so we could keep track of his day while we were away from home. We look forward to working with her again!”

“Brenda did a wonderful job taking care of our pets while we were away. She showed so much love, patience, and genuine care for them. We felt very comfortable knowing they were in such good hands and would absolutely recommend her.”

Nicole did an amazing job taking care of Dior! He absolutely loved her, and it was clear that he felt happy and comfortable in her care. Nicole is such a sweet, kind, and caring person. I would absolutely trust her to stay with Dior again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone wonderful to care for their pet. Thank you so much, Nicole! ❤️

Naomi and her husband did an absolutely, positively AMAZING job taking care of my animals! I honestly couldn’t have asked for better pet sitters. I’ll be completely honest — I was very nervous about having someone I found through an app come into my home and take care of my animals. It’s a big thing for me to trust someone with my pets and my personal space, so I had a lot of hesitation at first. But Naomi gave me such a sense of reassurance and comfort from the very beginning. She was so kind, understanding, communicative, and made me feel like I had nothing to worry about. They went above and beyond to make sure my animals were happy, comfortable, loved, and having fun. Knowing that they were being treated with so much care while I was away gave me such peace of mind. You can genuinely tell that Naomi and her husband have a true love for animals and treat them like their own. They were respectful of my home, attentive to my animals, and made the entire experience so much easier than I ever expected. I’m honestly so grateful I decided to trust them. They completely changed my perspective on using Rover, and I would absolutely have them take care of my animals again without hesitation. If you’re someone who is nervous about letting a stranger from an app into your home or trusting someone with your pets, I HIGHLY recommend Naomi and her husband. They were wonderful from beginning to end, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you both so much for taking such amazing care of my babies! ❤️🐾

Kniaka took wonderful care of Gigi! She kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely trust Kniaka with Gigi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you so much! ❤️

Aleja has taken care of our dog, Lola, several times while we’ve been away traveling, and every experience has been excellent. She is responsible, trustworthy, and dependable, which gives us complete peace of mind whenever we’re away. She is also incredibly loving and caring with Lola, and it’s clear how much she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. The best part is that Lola absolutely loves her, which says everything. We highly recommend Aleja and will definitely continue booking her in the future!

Herbert was extremely communicative and proactive when it came to caring for my 3 cats! He sent daily updates and was sure to ask questions when any concerns came up. He followed all directions and went above and beyond to make sure my pets felt cared for. Very grateful for his service and I will be booking him again in the near future!!

Izzy watched our senior cat, dog & frog for a week and was amazing! Highly recommend her to everyone. She sent daily pictures and even took our pup to the beach and on different adventures. They all loved their time with her so much and my wife and I fully trust her! It’s never easy letting someone new into your home but she was the perfect fit. Thank you Izzy! 10/10 experience

10/10 would recommend! Eliza went above and beyond all expectations this weekend for my dog and I. She asked all the right questions prior to her stay which was an immediate green flag. My dog is very cautious and sensitive around new people. Eliza used techniques to familiarize and comfort my dog. I recommend her to anyone, she is professional and her love and knowledge with animals shows in her work. She sent me lots of pics and updates, was flexible when I had to adjust my schedule. So glad I found her!!

We had an excellent experience with Diana. She was punctual, and so sweet. She stayed in our home for several hours, and we felt completely comfortable having her in our home. Our dog usually doesn't engage immediately but she was truly patient and understanding. We will absolutely book her again, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

I needed a last minute sitter because I was leaving town for a couple days and Amor was able to help me take care of my Uzi boy! I was nervous because I wasn’t sure how my dog would do given he didn’t know her but she was great and Uzi loved her ! She sent me constant photos and updates on my boy and was very thorough throughout the whole process all the way down to how he ate and what he liked to do. She made sure he was always comfortable and super kind and compassionate towards him.Very thankful for her and will definitely continue working with her in the future when I need a sitter !
Izabella was AMAZING! WE BOOKED HER LAST MINUTE TO STAY WITH OUR TWO SMALL DOGS TO KEEP THEM COMPANY ALL DAY WHILE WE WERE OUT EXPLORING AND SHE COULDN’T HAVE TAKEN BETTER CARE OF THEM! Two walks, lots of pictures and videos of them playing together kept my mind at ease when they were with someone unfamiliar. They quickly fell in love with her! I’d pay her double for her service if we are ever back in the area. Thank you again so much, Izabella!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Ojus walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Ojus maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Ojus 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!

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.
