About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I currently have a playful 1-year-old Schnauzer at home. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I have experience with special diets and can follow basic medical instructions with care. I always take the time to connect with each dog based on their unique personality. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I’m currently not working a traditional job, so I have all the time in the world to care for and play with your pet! I’m available 7 days a week and would love to spend quality time with your furry friend. I also have a fenced yard and my sweet Schnauzer can keep your pup company—if you’re comfortable with that. Your pet’s safety is my top priority
About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I've cared for puppies, kittens, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, lizards, monkeys, and other exotic and domestic animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, administer basic care, and provide companionship for their pets while they're away. I understand that every animal has unique needs, routines, and personalities, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll provide attentive and reliable care. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I work nearby Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM and am home most weekends. Depending on your pet's needs and temperament, I may be able to bring well-socialized dogs with me to work, allowing for additional companionship, supervision, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. I can also return home during lunch breaks when needed for feedings, medication administration, exercise, or extra attention. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine and provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching experience while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My home is clean, air-conditioned, and located in a quiet townhouse community with limited traffic, a single entrance and exit, and only a few residential buildings. We have a fenced patio, a dedicated pet walking area nearby, and a large sliding glass door that provides natural light and outdoor views while allowing pets to remain comfortably indoors. Unless otherwise requested by the owner, pets will be kept safely indoors at all times. Outdoor walks, potty breaks, playtime, and patio access will always be provided according to your preferences and your pet's individual needs. I understand that every pet has different routines, rules, and comfort levels, and I am committed to following your care instructions exactly as requested. For added security, my home has keypad entry access, and pets are never given unsupervised access to bedrooms, helping maintain a safe and controlled environment. Fresh filtered water is always available if preferred. I share my home with my 11-year-old son, who has been raised around animals and understands the importance of treating every pet with patience, kindness, and respect. We both genuinely love animals and work together to provide a calm, caring, and welcoming environment where pets feel like part of the family.
“Ruth is super responsive and very friendly with your babies! I had a last minute drop in I only had two hours to find someone and she was very fast at responding and helped me out in a pinch. Our original schedule was for 6 visits and she squeezed in the 7th for us last minute! Life saver!”
“Drew was amazing with Duke. Super patient and attentive. He was a life saver coming in to drop-in on Duke. He fed him, walked him, played with him. Would have him care for Duke again!”
About: I have been around animals all my life. I grew up in a home where animals are treated like family. You have to show them TLC. I currently have five dogs and five cats at home. The majority of them are rescues. I have rescued many animals and foster them until i find a home for them. I am great with any animal and know how to take care of them in any certain situation. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining their normal routine. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions from the owner. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their environment clean and reducing stress during their owner's absence.

About: I have had puppies to 18 year old dogs and cats in my life since I was a child. I have worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility so I just know dogs. I have my own 6 year old, 60 lb dog that I adopted from a shelter when he was just 2 months old. I have taken care of everything you can imagine, and I will always show love to your animal. Your pet will have my full attention and energy throughout the time we’re together. Depending on the care your pet requires, I can fit all the time I can to care for your pet. I have my own dog so I know what it means to spend quality time with them and the amount of time that is required to care for them properly. Im usually free after 1 pm. I will care for your pet as if it were my own, and I will do anything your pet requires to meet its and your own needs and wants. I will respect you, your animal, and your space as much as I respect my own.
About: I’ve cared and truly dedicate myself to animals full-time. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve worked in animal shelters so I’m patient with shy pets, gentle with seniors, and love working with energetic pups who need a little training or extra attention. I focus on making each pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved as if they were my own. I’m fully available and dedicate myself completely to caring for animals. Pet care is part of my everyday routine, and I love spending time making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away I have a secure, fenced yard and welcome pets for boarding, walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I always create a calm and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I treat all animals like family and make sure their safety and well-being come first.
About: Taking care of pets has been a joyful and fulfilling experience for me since I was 12 years old. I have always had a special connection with animals, and the opportunity to take care of them has brought me immense happiness. From playing with dogs in the park to cuddling with cats on lazy afternoons, every moment spent with my furry friends has been full of laughter and joy. Over the years, I have learned to be responsible and dependable, and my pets have taught me important life lessons about love, loyalty, and kindness. I am grateful for the happiness that pets have brought into my life, and I look forward to many more years of fun and laughter with them. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, and it's safe to say that my pets run my schedule! They're the bosses, and I'm just the employee who gets to cuddle and play with them all day. Since I work from home and have an open schedule, my pets know that they can count on me to provide them with their daily needs, from feeding and exercising to snuggles and naps. Sometimes, I have to negotiate with them for a little extra playtime or treats, and it's hilarious to see them give me their "puppy-dog eyes" when they want something. My pets keep me on my toes, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Who needs a personal assistant when you have a furry best friend by your side? As a pet caregiver, my motto is "safety first, fun second!" So, while I always make sure to create a healthy and trusting environment for your pet, I also make sure to give them the time of their lives! I'm not just a pet sitter, I'm a pet entertainer! Of course, while having fun is important, safety is always my top priority. I make sure to follow all the necessary safety protocols and supervise the pets at all times. And when it comes to communication, I'm not just a pet whisperer, I'm a pet communicator extraordinaire! I provide regular updates on your pet's activities, behavior, and even their latest jokes (yes, pets have a great sense of humor).

Noel took care of Moon and Sky as if they were her own cats. She provided them with so much love, attention, and care, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like family. Thank you so much, Noel, for taking such wonderful care of Moon and Sky. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and I would gladly book with you again! Highly recommended! 🐱❤️
Sofia was a perfect sitter for my two cats Uma and Nya while we were away visiting family during Memorial Day weekend. She was prompt to show up for feedings, playtime and followed directions to the tee! Would not hesitate to ask her to care for them again! The time of her visit, and pictures gave us peace of mind during our time away!!

As of August 2026, there are 2,075 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Palmetto Bay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Palmetto Bay. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
