“Jennifer did a great job taking care of my dogs. She is super sweet and can tell she’s an animal lover. She was punctual and gave my dogs love and attention. Will be using her again!”

“My dog LOVES Donovan. They took to each other right away. I was leery about giving a total stranger the key to my house but I trust Donovan 100%. Now I can go to work and not worry about my dog waiting and suffering until I got home to relieve herself. He's the best!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two cats, two dogs, and a parrot, so I truly understand how much love and attention pets need every day. From feeding, walking, and playtime to keeping them comfortable and happy, I enjoy every part of taking care of animals. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a shy cat, I’m patient, gentle, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry (or feathered!) family members, and I always aim to give them the same love and care they get at home. I’ve cared for pets my whole life! I’m free most of the week: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday anytime; Tuesday and Thursday after late afternoon (5pm); weekends all day, perfect for walks, visits, or boarding. I love keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable, and I treat every animal like family. I have two friendly dogs and a large, fully fenced yard with plenty of space for pets to run and play safely. I can adapt to any routine, provide fresh food and water, and maintain a clean, comfortable space. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, supervision, and creating a calm, loving environment so every pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for.
“Natalia is incredible!! I hired her very last minute for drop in visits and walks for my bernedoodle Bear, when my plans changed on extremely short notice. She was flexible, reliable and friendly, and even more importantly, she really took the time to connect with Bear. This was my first time leaving Bear since adopting him, and since I work from home, he is not used to spending time alone. After one drop in visit, he began howling after Natalia left; she heard him, went back inside to calm him down, left her sweatshirt for him to cuddle with, and stayed until he settled. I felt so reassured knowing that someone so caring was looking after him. We will absolutely hire Natalia again going forward.”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs for over 15 years. I understand that my client's pet is very precious. I am a responsible, attentive carer. I believe in making your pet's environmental change as comfortable, fun, safe, nurturing and active as possible. I take in/care for pets of most sizes and ages, and I don't like to have more than I owner's pets at a time, to ensure that things run safely and smoothly. I am flexible, accommodating, and I work from home, so I'm able to give your pet loads of attention. I have extensive experience fostering dogs for rescue groups. Some of these dogs were special needs cases in terms of medical needs and anxiety issues. I have a safe, large enough garden. I can do pick up, drop off, overnight, daycare, walking, baths and special trips as required. I am available most holidays and weekends and in the week. I have a jack-russel/chihuahua mix of my own under 1 year who gets on well with other dogs. I'm currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of time to play with and give loving attention to your pup's needs, including walks and play time. I have a fenced yard and plenty space to run around. The dogs will have regular inside and outside time. Walks are regular and as long and often as you choose. We are home to play and have loads of fun too. Your pet will feel loads of love and attention in this happy, friendly and fun environment.
“Cameron did an amazing job taking care of our dog and new puppy while we were gone for a long weekend! She did drop-in visits and provided walks for our older dog, as well as spending quality time playing with our puppy. She was very gracious and professional in dealing with accidents and followed all of our instructions perfectly. The pups seemed well taken care of. She provided lots of cute photos each visit and was very responsive. Would definitely recommend Cameron and would love to book again next time!”

About: I have owned dogs my whole life. My dog now gets walked 1-2 miles almost everyday. I also walk 4 miles about 5 times a week on my own for exercise, so I’m willing to walk short or long distances for your dogs. I have watched my neighbors’ and family members’ dogs multiple times, meaning I have experience with walking up to 4 dogs at a time! I’ve been a stay at home mom for the last 10 years, but I’m a recent empty nester looking to help others with their busy lives. I’m flexible throughout the week to walk dogs and can’t wait to get to know them! I know I am trustworthy with your dogs because my dog is well-cared for with a spacious backyard, daily walks, regular grooming, clean/filled water bowls, is always well-fed, and gets treats with tricks!
About: I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate approach to pet care, with hands-on experience fostering and caring for dogs of all temperaments—including rescues and anxious pups. I’m highly detail-oriented, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I prioritize safety, routine, exercise, and emotional comfort, whether that means long walks, structured play, or quiet companionship. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my patience, and my ability to tune into each pet’s unique needs—giving owners peace of mind and pets a stress-free, loving experience. I work remotely full time (M-F, 8am–5pm), meaning I’m home most of the day and can give your pup plenty of attention and timely breaks. Before caring for your pup, I like to discuss their routine in detail—including medications, exercise needs, anxiety levels, and behavior with other dogs, animals, or people—to ensure the best experience for everyone.
“Lexi has been an invaluable asset in our family, always ready to step in to take care of our Bingo & Rolly to make sure we had the time to bring the kids on a rare day/weekend trip. Even when asking last minute, same day, Lexi always came to our help and once here into our home she lovingly took care of our beloved pugs as if they were hers, so much so that even our rescue Bingo who has experienced trauma in the past and is shy with most people, opened up to her. Regrettably, we are leaving the area, or else Lexi would have surely remained our trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Lexi, for taking care of Bingo & Rolly and for being so friendly and kind to us.”

About: I have been a passionate pet owner all my life, with years of experience caring for my own pets as well as dogs belonging to friends. Additionally, I have worked professionally as a dog walker and pet sitter, ensuring every dog receives attentive care, daily exercise, and lots of love. I am currently a student working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to take care of your pets. Because of my schedule, I have a lot of free time during the day to devote full attention to your dog, provide frequent potty breaks, and take them on nice, long walks. "I have a spacious, fully fenced yard where dogs can play safely. Whether hosting in my home or sitting at yours, I prioritize safety above all. I keep a clean environment, strictly follow all your routine instructions, and make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and safe at all times
About: In high school my community service was dog sitting homeless dogs. Then over summer break I’d train pets. I love it so much I’ll honestly do it for free. I’m currently working part time from home so I could pet sit full time. I’ve been dog sitting for a friend and decided that I would like to work full time. It brings me so much joy. Easy job for me. Usually, I would prefer to see the parent with their pet to understand the pet’s behavior. I enjoy one on one time with the pet.. whether they enjoy tummy rubs or playing w their toys. I would like to understand them.
About: As an RN with over 11 years of experience, I understand the importance of being dependable, attentive, and compassionate. Those same qualities guide the care I provide for every dog and cat. I’m also a devoted dog mom to a senior Min Pin named Canela. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I have firsthand experience caring for dogs with complex medical needs, administering oral and topical medications, monitoring recovery after surgery, and recognizing subtle changes in a dog’s condition or behavior. Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, a drop-in visit for potty breaks, playtime, meals, fresh water, or medication, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your companion is well cared for. At this time, I primarily offer dog walking and drop-in visits so I can continue caring for Canela. I also offer limited boarding for one guest dog at a time in a calm home environment. Pet care is already part of my daily routine as a devoted dog mom to my senior Min Pin, Canela. I structure my schedule around caring for her first each day, which allows me to provide dependable dog walking and drop-in visits Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM, and weekends from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM. This routine helps me give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own. During drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, walks, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I’ll also make sure your home is respected and secure by following any instructions you provide, such as locking doors, bringing in packages, or adjusting lights if requested. My goal is to keep your pet safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away, giving you peace of mind every step of the way.
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.
“Yumeng is so great with my dogs, she goes above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of. My dogs have alot of energy and make alot of mess, but she handles them very very well, would definitley reccomend her services! :)”


About: I have grown up walking dogs and have 2 cats at home. I love cats, dogs, and long walks. I know when they are hungry or thirsty, or when it is time to go to the bathroom. I don't mind cleaning up messes and will take responsibility for any accidents that the animal made. I am a college student at UF currently home for summer break. I am looking to work and will be available as much as I can. As a home sitter, I am respectful and will make sure to follow the rules and boundaries placed by the owner. You can tell me anything and I will make sure to listen and act accordingly.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palmetto Bay
Mariana took care of our Maltese while we were away and she was outstanding. She dropped in to visit 3 times a day and she was on time, amazing with Brady --taking him out for walks, taking him out back and gave him so much love--and sent lots of pictures and videos. She follows instructions perfectly. We wish we can have her come visit Brady every day! Cant wait to see you again Brady sends you lots of hugs!!!!!!

Alize was incredible. For starters she is extremely professional, respectful and trustworthy. My dog Tyson is extremely particular with people, but he just LOVED her. The drop in visits were 3x/day for a week, and she was punctual for all of them. She made sure Tyson got his daily exercise by taking him out and playing fetch the ball with him. She even showed up with more food for him because towards the end of the week he was running low on some of his food. If you’re looking for an outstanding dogsitter that is reliable, trustworthy and a true animal/dog lover, Alize is the top choice. Our family is blessed to have found such a special person. Thank you Alize!!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Palmetto Bay stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Palmetto Bay choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Palmetto Bay with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
