“Alyiah is the best! She is very responsible and it’s always a pleasure having her as a pet sitter. My cat loves her so much! He is always so happy to see her and they have a great time together. This is our second time with Alyiah and I know I won’t find anyone better than her!”
“Monica was amazing . The dogs loved her. She is very reliable and I love that she sent me pictures and videos and full reports about what they did,eat and more. Definitely will use her again!!!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She had great communication and told me when she was leaving and had arrived each time. She also gave me details of every visit, as well as many pictures. She also was very tentative to my elderly cats needs, including giving him medicine daily. She was very respectful of my house, and asked many questions to make sure that my cat was comfortable and had the best experience while I was gone. It was very evident that she truly cared about his needs, which means a lot to me because he’s like my child. I will definitely be using Stephanie in the future.”
About: i’ve had 3 pet dogs in my life since i was 10 years old, 13 years later, i’m down to two and i still love them with all my heart! i moved from Connecticut to Florida and looking to work doing something i love, caring for pets :) i know lots of the dogs on my street and i want to meet more! i have a neighbor who relies on me to watch her male chihuahua once in a while when her female pomski is in heat, and i used watch my cousins shihtzu when they would travel. i’m very strict about walking these guys on a schedule. my dogs have to go outside at least every 7 hours or less (i try to walk them whenever i have to “go” to get an idea). i have lots of experience with pets (mainly small and medium dogs 2-25lbs) i enjoy learning their different personalities likes and dislikes. i’ll care for your dog like it’s my own, :) <3 i’m happy to send constant updates feel free to ask me any questions about my experience and or my own pups :) i work part time so i have a lot of free time, i’m plan on starting small, and hopefully with the service i provide, i’ll build clientele and in a year i could raise my prices if the demand is high enough. right now my plan is to make enough cash to take online courses for a future career in my home i walk my dogs minimum of 3 times a day although most days it’s 4 (they dont wake up through the night and they sleep about 10-12 hours) i make them food most days, they’re picky about their food so i don’t have kibble at home in your home, i can make your pets food as well, so long you provide the ingredients of course i do well with walking them on schedules my dogs go to the dog park maybe once a week or maybe the beach, something fun as a sitter that’s something i can do for you as well im more than happy to take picture and videos and send you updates on your fur baby to help you feel more at ease with the distance between you and them <3
About: I offer a calm, loving home where pups can relax and feel truly cared for. My little Pomeranian, Jinxie, is very well trained and has grown up around all the dogs I’ve fostered & she’s wonderful at giving other pups their space or keeping them gentle company if they’re looking for a friend. I’ve fostered many dogs over the years, including seniors, so I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for pups who just need a softer pace and a little extra understanding. My home is cozy, peaceful, and safe, and I have cameras so I can check in whenever I step out. I love sending lots of photos so you always feel close to your pup! I’ve been in that position myself, and I know I’d want plenty of pictures of my own dog while I’m away. I treat every pup like part of the family and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. I work from home full-time, which means I’m always with my dog and I’ll be right by your pup’s side too. My schedule is completely flexible, so I can fully adjust my day around walks, cuddles, playtime, and whatever your dog needs to feel safe and loved. I live in a peaceful, beautiful neighborhood in the heart of Miami Lakes where daily walks are truly something we look forward to. My home is calm, loving, and dog-friendly, and I’m always nearby to make sure your pup feels safe and comforted. Whether they need playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, they’ll be treated like family here.

I have as much time on my hands as your pup needs! That means I would have time to take them to get a pup cup at Starbucks! How cute :’) I have a room dedicated for dogs in my own home! I currently have one 8 month old Chihuahua, her name is Lily! I bet Lily would love to have a friend like herself!
“MaryJane is amazing. She took care of my kitty, Stark for 6 days while I traveled. He’s very sweet but shy and she got him to hang out with her and feel at home. I’m very grateful she would provide constant updates and send me pictures. I highly recommend her for you fur babies. She’s very trustworthy ?????”

“Sofi was a fantastic sitter for my older dog Xolo. She accepted the booking last minute and was very accommodating. She was always on time, reliable and sent many cute pics of Xolo. You could tell that she genuinely cared about his wellbeing and happiness. I would definitely re book her”
“Melanie was so great!!! She was very communicative and incredibly helpful while I was away. Went above and beyond with little tasks I hadn’t even requested. She was amazing!!! I would hire her again in a heartbeat and I’m so glad she got to spend time with my critter, who is typically very shy around new people. He loved her!”
“Jennifer is amazing! She’s super kind to Pretzel, very professional, punctual, friendly and communicative. Pretzel starts off a little shy and she was patient with him. She goes above and beyond for your fur baby.”
About: Growing up with furry friends was the best. Understanding their needs, and wants, including bathing, feeding, exercising and loving them, has been amazingly fruitful for both the animal and myself. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so there is a lot of opportunity for taking care of your little buddy! I am flexible with setting an ongoing schedule or flexible when needed. Amenities: a large fenced yard, lots of sidewalk space surrounded by dog parks and a cozy home to host your little love. I have a huge passion for being outside and going for any type of walk which I always have an affinity to do with a furry friend. I work a very flexible schedule from home most days of the week, so I’m available almost at any time you may need. Weekends are almost completely available for me as well. I have a fenced, clean yard that’s quite spacious behind our house. There is a lot of sidewalk to keep us walking, and there’s also plenty of opportunity to have fun at the dog parks just minutes walk from my home.

Nicole has been absolutely incredible only after two weeks. My breed of dog takes time to adjust to new friends and family. Nicole has been able to patiently developed a bond to this point which we are confident will grow in time. This deserves mention and to be brought to the attention of others.
Nina was fantastic! From the beginning communication was excellent and she made sure to send me pictures and updates about Blue. When I got home everything was perfect and Blue was a happy boy. I highly recommend her services! Until next time! Thank you again!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Opa-locka 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 Opa-locka 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Opa-locka with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
