“Ameer and Alexis always go above and beyond for us and our pets! The dogs are completely worn out from playing when we get home and the house is better than we left it. We are so lucky to have them!”
2. Dayana R.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dayana did an outstanding job with Boomer and Nova, especially during the challenging time right before I flew out of the country. When Boomer injured himself, she cared for him meticulously, administering all his medications as if he were her own. She kept me updated with pictures and took excellent care of the house, leaving it even better than I did. I highly recommend her for pet sitting and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”
3. Kiara C.
“This was our first time using Rover.com and after doing our research we decided to reach out to Kiara. It was evident during our first meet and greet that she was a great fit for us. She was super pleasant upon first meeting her and my pets immediately took to her when she came into our apartment. For me that is always a good sign as I feel pets are a great judge of character. Kiara was very accommodating with her schedule and she sent us pictures and updates in a timely manner. We also loved her genuine joy in interacting with the pets. She loves to smile and that kind of positivity is always well received by our fur babies. We came home to happy and healthy pets and that's all you can ask for as pet owners. We will have absolutely no hesitation in using Kiara again when we need a pet sitter and she will be our first choice. Thank you again to Kiara for all you did in making our vacation that much better.”

“Ruth has been a friend of mine for some time now. She has lovingly cared for my dog whenever I needed it. My dog received the best of care and I will happily use her again.”
5. Tyler C.
“Tyler was the perfect dog and house sitter. He kept in constant contact with us and sent us pictures of our dogs while were on vacation. I would highly recommend him. We will definitely use him again when we go on vacation. Thank you.”
6. Marcela A.
“Marcela was amazing ! She is punctual, professional , engaged well with Bougie and while we were away she sent me 📸 photos of our baby that just made our hearts melt . We will definitely be using her again .”

About: To say i love animals is an understatement.I am an avid dog and cat person that frequently volunteers and fosters medical needed fosters(mainly bulldogs with prolapsed organs), neonate kittens, puppies, etc. There is no love like an animals love🥰 I am a nursing student who is available most afternoons. All my classes are in the mornings and i do not do much on the weekends! Safety is my number one priority. If the dog needs to be crated, I know how to do so without scaring/intimidating the dog. Building trust with the owner is important but more importantly the dog. Dogs need affection and trust in order to live to their fullest potential.

11. Annabelle C.
About: As a Pet Caregiver, attention to detail, compassion, and commitment to providing the best care for every pup are my top priorities. I’ve grown up with small dogs and have years of experience with shy, reactive, and energetic personalities. I’m skilled in managing puppies and senior dogs, ensuring their unique needs are met with patience and care. On walks, I ensure dogs listen to me, check pavement temperatures to prevent burns (especially important in Miami), and understand how to prevent issues like stomach flipping after exercise. After walks, I’ll clean paws, wipe eye gunk, and keep fur brushed and mat-free. I can even give baths to dogs who hate water and blow dryers, making the process as stress-free as possible. I believe in enrichment and love providing playtime, treats, and affection while strictly following your rules. Whether it’s following specific care instructions or handling unique challenges, I’m here to make sure your pup is safe, happy, and loved! I have the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time to your pet, offering daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and attentive care to meet their unique needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all provided instructions closely to ensure consistency in their routine. I incorporate enrichment activities, offer lots of affection, and pay attention to their physical and emotional needs. If I need to leave the house, I ensure they have access to food, water, treats, and/or hygienic pads, or I will safely crate them if needed. For well-socialized dogs, I enjoy taking them on trail walks or even through the Starbucks drive-thru for a special pup-cup treat!
12. Alyssa E.
“I highly recommend Alyssa Escobar as a dog sitter on Rover.com! She took excellent care of my dog during my trip, providing regular updates and adorable photos that reassured me she was in great hands. Alyssa's love for animals really shines through in her care. She made sure to follow my dog's routine, took her on plenty of walks, and gave her lots of attention. My dog seemed so happy and comfortable when I returned, which made all the difference. I’ll definitely be booking with Alyssa again in the future!”
13. Octavio F.
“Octavio did an excellent job! We are very happy with him. He is very responsible, he followed the instructions we gave him, and he loves dogs. Our dogs love him! They had a great time with Octavio. We highly recommend Octavio. We will hire him next time we need someone to take care of our doggies 😊”

“Sloan is great! We feel lucky to have found her to take care of our two pups. Looking forward to booking again. Thanks again Sloan for your extra care this week. We all appreciate you!”
15. Eve M.
“Eve has loved pets since she was a child. Her love for animals is amazing. She could be the female version of Dr. Doolittle. I would choose Eve time and time again to baby sit my pets.”

18. Pablo M.
“We are so thankful for the care and attention that Pablo provided our boy. Having him gave us the peace of mind that maverick was being taken care of while we were out of town.”
19. Sophia M.
“There is no greater peace of mind that, knowing your pets are in good hands. I was very hesitant to book through the rover, but could not be happier with the result. Sophia was caring and loving, she went above, and beyond, kept me informed and up-to-date even just to say everything‘s good. She let me enjoy my vacation while she took care of my pets. Sophia was patient with me (I hate leaving my pets) and took great care of all. I will book her again! Thank you!”
20. Cindy S.
“Cindys first instinct is known as a compassionate-nurturer. With her outstanding patience and welcoming presence she opens the door for pets and owners to be showered with love. She adjust to different characteristics and enjoys the company of the fur-baby family.”
