“Danielle is wonderful! She has great communication, and I feel very comfortable with her stopping by while I’m at work to check on Snorkel. I would recommend her to anyone! 💕”

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.

About: I work in the cruising industry, so I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find someone you truly trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Over the years, I’ve cared for friends’ pets for days and even weeks at a time while they travel for work. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have furry family members of my own. I may not have any fancy “pet care” certifications or special skills, but what I do have is plenty of love, patience, attention, and a genuine soft spot for animals. My goal is to make your time away a little easier by giving your pets the same care, affection, and attention they’re used to at home- with plenty of cuddles, playtime, and, of course, treats when allowed! Your pets aren’t just pets; they’re family. I’ll treat them that way. ❤️ I work full-time from home, Monday through Friday, from 8 AM to 4 PM, so my availability is primarily in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I also have a 3-year-old who may occasionally accompany me when caring for pets, provided they are comfortable and child-friendly. I’m happy to discuss each pet’s needs and make sure the arrangement is a good fit for everyone. My schedule allows me to be flexible outside of my regular work hours, and I’m especially happy to help with evening visits, walks, overnight care, and weekend stays. I have a cat and two guinea pigs at home, so I’m currently only able to host pets who are comfortable and friendly around other animals. Because of this, I’m especially happy to provide care in your home, where your pet can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I can help with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping up with their normal routine while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you leave for their care. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾
About: Hi! My name is Amber, and I’ve been a lifelong dog lover! Growing up with dogs has always been a huge part of my life, and I can’t imagine it any other way. I currently have a pug named Bonita and a Maine Coon named Tux, so animals will always have a special place in my heart. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, including German Shepherds, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and Golden Retrievers, and I’ve also fostered puppies and dogs while they waited to find their forever homes. Through these experiences, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, and providing lots of love and attention. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone around to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I know pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! 🐾 I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week to accommodate pet care! I’m happy to coordinate visits and walks around my workday and can be flexible with timing depending on your pet’s needs. I’m organized, reliable, and understand how important consistency is for animals. I genuinely enjoy spending my free time with pets, so caring for yours is something I look forward to fitting into my routine! 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for walks and adventures, I want them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your instructions closely, respect your home and your pet’s routine, and make sure they always have fresh water, appropriate supervision, and plenty of attention. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets like my own, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Daniela was excellent with our two dogs! She was patient and caring, and had a real calming effect on our dogs, especially on one who is generally nervous. Daniela was also punctual, had great communication and responsiveness, and on top of sending us the details of each drop in. We plan to use her services again, and would highly recommend to anyone in need of pet help.”

“Thanks so much for taking care of the pups! I really appreciate all the walks, feedings, and everything you did to keep them happy. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. ladded a little extra to say thanks - you went above and beyond. We'd love to have you back again next time!”

“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: Hi! I’m Taylor. I’m an all around animal lover. I’ve had animals my whole life and I truly am one of those people that care more about animals than anything else. All my animals are rescues. My true love is for dogs. My current job is working with dogs. As I’m getting older my passion for animals is becoming stronger and I’m learning more things about them. I’m a fun energetic person who would love to take your dog on a walk and show them lots of love and affection while you’re away. I’m also a pretty good photographer, so I’ll be sure to capture your dogs special moments. Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I create my own hours and have a very flexible routine. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, potty breaks, playtime, and adjust to their individual needs throughout the day. Safety is very important in my home. I have a fully fenced yard, extra crates if needed, and friendly, lovable pets who are used to being around other animals. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“This is my second time booking Leo! He showed up exactly when scheduled and remembered details from the first booking that I had forgotten to re-share. Thank you so much for taking care of my two little ones!”

“Always looking forward to story time when Stephanie takes care of our boys! She’s wonderful, trustworthy and always makes us laugh with the notes regarding each visit. 10/10 recommend”

About: I absolutely love caring for pets! I have a Border Collie who is 6, super shy and caring. We take walks around the neighborhood and have play time in my fenced yard. I’m a work at home pet parent so it works perfect for me. :) I can break whenever needed so potty time is no problem. I have a home with plenty of space as well as a full backyard (treated for fleas) for play time . Your pets will get to roam the yard often.

About: I've helped various friends and family watch their pets whenever throughout the years. During high school, I volunteered at the Washington Humane Society, helping clean cages, stock food and whatever other tasks they needed help with. Over a 4 year period in Houston, I took time to watch my brother's German Shepherd during his travels. I also had my own cat, Angel, who was an older adopted Maine Coon mix. I have a great respect for animals, they are one of God's many gifts to us humans. They teach us not only responsibility, but how to speak a language deeper than words, love! I work from home, so outside of running errands and gym, boxing, etc. I'm usually at home. Your pet will likely see me most of the day. My schedule is very flexible currently. Just let me know your requests for taking care of your furry friend! I adjust to each animal's personality because no two are identical.

“Jackie is the first and only dog sitter I’ve ever left my young puppy with, and she is honestly so amazing and has exceeded all my expectations of what a dog sitter would be like. She will form a bond with your pet. My puppy gets excited when he sees her now, and she goes above and beyond to care for him. Jackie will go the extra mile for you and your pet. It’s an enormous relief knowing I have a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter for my puppy. Also, bonus Jackie takes the best pictures!! :))”

We had one female toy poodle and are happy to look after yours for a couple of hours, days or even a few weeks.

About: Since I was a child, I have cared for and loved the dogs in my neighborhood, feeding them, bathing them, taking them to the vet and making sure they always had their daily dose of games and walks. My passion for animals led me to become a rescue member of an NGO against animal abuse in my native country, where I also supported shelters. My dedication and experience guarantee that your pet will be in the best hands, receiving the love and attention it deserves. Pet care is a fundamental part of my daily routine as I currently work part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets. Call me and provide the daily dose of play and happiness your pet needs. As a pet sitter, I make sure to provide exceptional care for the pets in the client's home. This includes carefully following established routines and schedules for feeding, walks and playtime, while maintaining a safe and comfortable environment. In addition, I pay special attention to each pet's individual needs, providing affection, attention and, if necessary, medication as directed by the owner. My goal is to keep pets happy and calm while their owners are away, ensuring a positive and trusting experience for all involved.
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.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 6,655 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Opa-locka. 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 Opa-locka. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
