“Samantha was great. This is the first time we have left our 3 in door /out door cats with someone they did not know. She was wonderful with them, gave extra attention to one that is a bit skittish made sure she was eating and comfortable and with in 3 days that cat was allowing her to pet and felt safe. She gave us daily pictures, kept the cats in their routine and house and cats were perfect when we returned. Highly recommend and we will definitely be booking Samantha again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was little and have experience with the everyday responsibilities that come with looking after pets. I’ve also attended obedience classes, which gave me some familiarity with basic training concepts and positive reinforcement. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m happy to reinforce familiar commands and routines. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, fresh water, and companionship while making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pet with patience and care and provide updates and photos while you’re away! I’m currently enrolled in college but I have a very flexible schedule otherwise. My schooling is for the most part only for the time being, so I have ample time for pet care. Your pets are your family and I treat them exactly like that, family. Every pet has a unique personality and I care for pets in the manner most appropriate for their needs. I have had pets my whole life so I am more than excited to care for your pets in your home. 😁
“Adela was great with all my animals! I had her do drop in visits during my vacation. She was very communicative. It was nice knowing my pets were being taken care of and loved while I was away.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with every pet 🐾 I’m not just there to “watch” them—I really take time to understand their personality, their routine, and what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m very patient and attentive, which helps a lot with both puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I like to keep things consistent and use positive reinforcement to support any training you’re working on. With senior pets, I’m extra gentle, calm, and make sure they’re comfortable, whether that’s slower walks, medication, or just extra cuddles. I’m also big on communication—I’ll send updates and cute photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for your pet to feel loved and relaxed, and for you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re in good hands 💛 Pet care fits really naturally into my day because it’s something I genuinely love doing 🐾 I have a pretty flexible routine, so I’m able to stop by for visits, walks, or just hangout time whenever your pet needs it. I like to keep things consistent for them—feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company—so they feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I’m super easygoing when it comes to working around your pet’s schedule. Honestly, spending time with animals is one of my favorite parts of the day, so it never feels like a job—more like I get to hang out with a bunch of cute new friends 💛🐶🐱 Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved 🐾 I’m very attentive to their routine and environment—making sure doors are secure, food and water are fresh, and they’re always in a calm, clean space. I’m also very mindful when it comes to safety. I double-check locks, keep a close eye during walks or outdoor time, and make sure pets are always in a secure environment. I’m good with alarm systems and home security, so you can feel confident your home is being respected and looked after as well. I treat every home and pet like it’s my own—lots of love, patience, and attention to detail so you can fully relax while you’re away 💛

“Victoria was a fantastic cat sitter! She looked after our four grown cats effortlessly and kept the litter areas spotlessly clean on every visit. We felt completely at ease while away and will definitely be booking her again for future trips”
“Ameer was great and has a very calming presence. I have older kitties who need attention and care and they were well taken care of, and the house was clean and he watered our plants. He sends photos and is always responsive. I was able to go away and not worry which is a blessing. Would definitely recommend him to take care of your kitties and will use him again in the future.”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Palmetto Bay is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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.

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 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.
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.

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 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.
