About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for family and friends for many years. I love being with animals and will do everything I can to make them comfortable and happy. I’m available for pet boarding daily all weekdays and weekends whenever I’m not at school. I’ll be sure to provide the best care that I can! I have a fenced yard and I live nearby the park so I can exercise and walk your dog however much they need. I also provide care for indoor cats and will keep them safe in my room until they’re confident that they can walk around. I give lots of treats, make sure all of their facilities are clean, and feed them as directed by the owner.
“Melissa provided excellent care during her drop-in visits for my three outdoor cats while I was out of town. She was dependable and caring, which gave me peace of mind throughout my trip. Knowing my cats were in such good hands allowed me to truly relax while I was away. Melissa is reliable, communicates well, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. I will absolutely be booking her again for future trips and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to friends and family.”
About: I've owned pets since 2013 and often dogsit my friends' dogs if they're away for an event, a weekend, or even a week at a time. I lived in Barbados for 2 years, where there are dozens of stray animals roaming the streets. I took in and rehabilitated an orange cat (featured in my photos) that has been brought to the US and is happily living in NYC with her new family. I do not have any pets in my apartment at the moment- my dog, Honey, is across the country with my mom. I have so much love to give pets and enjoy spoiling pets with the attention they deserve. The qualities I have as a graduating medical student directly translate into my care for pets- being punctual, patient, and passionate. I'm a full-time medical student with a fluctuating schedule. My weekends are free for boarding, walks, etc., but weekdays depend on my schedule for the given month. Weekday work schedule typically starts at 7am, and my availability will most often start at 5pm (or earlier some days). When I am home, I integrate my pet into everything I do. I love their company on the couch, bringing them on my daily walks, and even the puppy eyes when I’m cooking. I live with my partner in a pet-friendly condominium on the 5th floor. We have a partially-fenced yard with grass surrounding the condo and a balcony with our unit. Our front door has a double key-lock, with no possibility of a pet escaping. It is a large, 2-bedroom condo with plenty of space to roam in the open-concept living room and kitchen. There's plenty of unobstructed room for pet belongings (food, toys, bedding, etc.). I do not have any other animals living in the unit, I do not have a crate, and I love animals sleeping in the room/bed with me (if owner allows).
“Stephanie was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my cat, Saber! 🐾 She was clean, organized, and left my home in amazing condition. I especially appreciated how detailed her notes were — she really took the time to communicate and keep me updated, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Saber was very well cared for, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”
About: I have experience in cat sitting. I’ve done it on and off work a couple of years now. I always ensure that your fur babies will get the attention they need and clean up their environment. I am currently a stay at home mom who is looking for work. My schedule is pretty open and I’m able to go take care of your fur babies at any time of the day. My cat Momo is an indoor cat who loves to lounge in the sun all day. Momo requires medication everyday which he willingly takes in a pill pocket. He loves to play and run around the house. I will ensure that your pet is taken care of. I will give them all the attention they need and I will make sure that their litter is cleaned up and they have plenty of food and water.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or providing playtime and companionship, I always ensure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to provide loving and reliable care, giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I have a very flexible schedule and usually too much free time and i would love to fill the gaps in by helping someone with their pet. In my own home I would walk my dogs 3-4 times a day, whether its to actually go or just to go on a little walk. Weekly baths and playing with them everyday are things I enjoy doing. I also have a cat who I care for. I change the littler box, feed her, and play with her.
About: I’ve been walking dogs my entire life. I’m a proud pet parent to a sweet rescue pittie and multiple cats. I actively volunteer at a local animal rescue. Over the years, I’ve fostered (and sometimes foster-failed!) many pets, and I understand how much love and care our furry family members need. I also have a blind, reactive rescue dog who can be shy around new people, so I’m very comfortable working with pets who may need extra time, patience, or special attention. When your pets are with me, they’ll be treated like my own, with plenty of love, care, and belly rubs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or a cozy cuddle session, I’ll make sure they feel safe, and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to easily check in on your pets throughout the day, whether it’s for playtime, feeding, or just some extra snuggles. I’ll make sure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in your home. I understand that some animals can be nervous or shy, so I’ll always move with care and be mindful of their space. I’m especially cautious about keeping doors securely closed and paying attention when entering or leaving to ensure your pets stay safe and sound.
“Erika took such great care of my 9 year old dog while I was away. Since he's an older dog, I always worry about leaving him, but she handled everything so well and gave him so much love and attention. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell he was comfortable and well cared for. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you Erika!”

About: I've been pet-sitting for over half of my life - starting at age 10 up until now. I discovered my passion for pet-sitting when I was about eight years old. My journey began as a pet-sitter for a family friend's dog who would eventually be given to me and become my best friend for 10 years. With one dog at home, I was eager to take care of more. Through word of mouth, I had garnered an impressive amount of clients . I have experience handling animals from fish to horses and everything in between. I've yet to meet an animal that I didn't connect with and I've yet to meet a dissatisfied owner. Most owners will leave me with, "You're the only person that I trust to take care of my animals." I take pride in my work as a pet-sitter and to me, that's the greatest testament to how much I care about each and every pet that I take care of. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it’s my full-time job alongside being a student. I carefully balance my study schedule with pet care visits, ensuring that each pet receives the attention they need—whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just companionship. I schedule visits during breaks in my day to make sure I’m meeting the pets’ needs while staying on top of my coursework. With pet sitting as my main focus outside of school, I’m able to provide personalized care and ensure each pet feels loved while their owners are away. Whether in my home or a client's home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment for the pet. In my home, I provide a pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and follow their usual routine. At a client’s home, I respect their space while sticking to the pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule. I ensure each pet feels secure, loved, and well-cared for, whether it's keeping them company, following special instructions, or just offering some extra attention to make them feel at ease.

I’m reliable, attentive to each pet’s routine, and treat every animal like my own. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing!! I’m reliable, organized, and I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate different routines and provide attentive check-ins and updates throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and cared for in their own home.

I provide a safe, comfortable environment with a large fenced yard for play and a spare room for rest. I give constant attention, supervision, and personalized care in any home.
About: I've cared for birds, big breed dogs, cats and even a tarantula. I am good at hiding medicine in treats or convincing a cat to swallow a pill. I've even raised and cared for baby birds and kittens. I'm currently studying and needed a flexible job. I like to move my body around but get bored at the gym and miss my walks with my great dane after she passed. A walk with a pup is more fun that the stair-master at the gym I am the friend my friends call to watch there pets. I'm really good when it comes to maintaining and up-keeping any kennels or pet rooms clean. I also like to wash bowls if their owners don't mind.
“Lissmay was wonderful watching our Bourbun over the holiday break! She was super sweet and knowledgeable and sent us constant photo and video updates of our fur baby! 10/10 recommend for all your petsitting needs! THANK YOU!!❤️❤️”

Honestly honestly, I would always pick her. She has been a rock for when I need someone to take care of my zoo, my geckos, my bunny, and my cat. They all love her and honestly is the sweetest person ever known to earth. I can always count on her even on last minute bookings. I adore her to the moon and back.
Marcos is awesome! My kitty loves it when he comes to check on her. He always lets me know what time he’ll be coming, and gives a very comprehensive report on what he did while in my apartment. I love how he gives my girl soo much attention and pets first since she tends to get lonely. Would highly recommend him.

As of October 2026, there are 3,070 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Opa-locka. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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.
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 .

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
