About: I’ve always been a helping hand when it comes to caring for pets, and family and friends have trusted me to watch their dogs whenever they needed someone reliable. I’m dependable, communicative, and adapt well to different pets and environments even snakes! Joining Rover felt like the perfect opportunity to provide that same level of care to pet owners outside of my own circle. I’m currently working part-time, so I have flexibility in my schedule to give your pets plenty of attention and care. I’m available for pet sitting and boarding on weekends, as well as weekdays before 4 p.m. My schedule may adjust once school starts, but I’ll always make sure to communicate my availability clearly. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines and any instructions they provide. I make sure pets are fed, have access to water, get plenty of attention and playtime, and are taken outside or given opportunities to use the restroom as needed. I’m very attentive to their needs and will communicate with the owner if anything seems unusual or if they need anything extra.
“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!”

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.”

Todo estará bien, la comunicación lo hará posible I have to following the instructions and rules that they tell me with their pets and with basic values such as respect, honesty and punctuality.
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 2-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. 🐾

“I am so grateful to have found Yusisleydis. I could completely trust with my dog while I was away. From the moment I met them, I could tell how much she genuinely cared about my dog. She kept me updated, gave my dog so much love and attention, and made sure my fur baby was happy and comfortable the entire time. Being away can be stressful when you worry about your pet, but knowing my dog was being cared for so well gave me complete peace of mind. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I could truly see the bond they had formed. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my dog. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend Yusisleydis to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pet as if it were their own. ❤️🐾”

About: Hi! I’m Katherine, With 3 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, I treat every pup like my own. I have experience with senior dogs who need a little extra love and care, as well as energetic puppies who thrive on play and structure. I use positive reinforcement for basic training and am comfortable administering medications if needed. Whether your dog is shy, playful, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home with me. i am avaliable monday to friday from 5:30 pm and from friday to sunday 24/7and if i am chosen to take care of you m As a lifelong dog lover, I care for every pup just like I do my own Yorkie, Luna. Each morning we start with a nutritious breakfast—premium kibble with a spoonful of pumpkin—followed by a brisk 20‑minute neighborhood walk so she can sniff, explore, and stretch her legs. Back home, I keep her coat looking its best with a quick brush, and during the day I check in regularly for fresh water, belly rubs, and mental stimulation through puzzle toys. Late afternoons mean living‑room fetch sessions or rooftop playdates, and dinner at 6 PM comes with a bit of shredded chicken for extra flavor. When the day winds down, I tuck her into her cozy spot by my side, making sure she’s warm, happy, and ready for sweet dog‑dreams—because every pet in my care deserves that same routine of love, attention, and reliability.

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.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Opa-locka is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $39 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 October 2026, there are 6,765 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 .
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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
