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.
“I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Scott as my dog sitter. While I was away, he took great care of Duke, walking him regularly, making sure he was fed properly, and always arriving right on time. Knowing Duke was on a consistent routine gave me so much peace of mind. Even though I wasn’t home, Scott’s reliability and communication reassured me that Duke was in good hands. It’s not easy leaving your dog behind, but I felt confident trusting Scott with his care. If you’re looking for someone dependable, punctual, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend Scott. I’ll definitely be booking him again to look after Duke!”
“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 ?????”

“Leo did an absolutely fantastic job taking care of my dogs, Bentley and Abby. This was the first time I’ve ever used a dog-sitting service, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Leo was incredibly professional, attentive, and made sure my dogs were well cared for while I was away. Being away from your dogs can be stressful, and the most important thing is knowing they’re in great hands. Leo gave me that peace of mind and made the whole experience easy and reassuring. I highly recommend Leo to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be using him again in the future. Thanks again, Leo!”

We are fortunate to live in Miami Shores just 2 blocks away from Memorial Park. Our home is spacious and dog friendly and sits on a 9,000 square feet lot with a fence for fun and play – the perfect vacation spot for your pet while you are away! I love spending time with dogs. They give me so much joy! I'm currently working part-time in a remote job, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends and weekdays with flexible hours! My normal routine for a dog boarded overnight is to give two long walks at the park each day (morning and afternoon). Several times during the day your furry friend will receive fresh air in our spacious backyard where they can stretch their legs and play. We had one female toy poodle and are happy to look after yours for a couple of hours, days or even a few weeks. As a dog owner whose dog sadly passed away, I understand how hard it is to leave your dog with someone. Be confident knowing I will treat your precious dog like my own. I am a passionate and caring person with lots of love and cuddles to give! I have a fenced yard with plenty of grass and shaded areas for your pups to play in. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Opa-locka
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.
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.

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.
