Ruth was great! When we came home, everything had been done for Skiity. She made a point of communicating on a daily basis and letting us know that our cat was OK. I really appreciate Ruth’s dedication and responsibility.

Lee was great! He came over a few days before his visit to meet my dogs. Lee was very patient with Axel, who gets a little weird with strangers. Lee kept me updated after every visit and sent pictures too. I will most definitely book again with Lee. You can tell he is very comfortable around all animals.

About: I have been around dogs all my life, have two of my own Vizslas, so I know the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. I've also dog-sat for other families through the Nextdoor app (including overnight dog sitting) on top of my own dogs. I treat every dog like they are mine and always put their safety, comfort and routine first. Reliable, communicative and dedicated to making pets and their owners comfortable. My summer schedule is very flexible and I am available most weekdays between 8:00 and 5:00. I can also do weekend morning visits and evening visits/overnights with 24 hour notice. I will be heading off to college this fall and am excited to spend this summer providing your pets with reliable consistent care! I always put the pet’s safety, comfort, and routine first. There is plenty of room for pets to stretch out and play in my home, including a fully fenced yard for outdoor time when supervised. I ensure they have fresh water, regular meals, exercise, and lots of attention. I really follow instructions carefully when caring for pets in a client’s home. This helps keep them on their regular routine and keeps them feeling safe and comfortable in a familiar environment. I also keep owners in the loop with regular updates and photos so they can relax while they are away.

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.

About: I've been a dog person my whole life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pup's unique personality. I'm experienced caring for dogs of all ages, administering medications when needed, and making sure they stick to the routine they're used to. My goal is for your dog to feel like they're on a little vacation while you're away. I choose my hours at work and I am mostly remote. I am able to provide around the clock attention to your pups to give them the best experience while you are away! My house has a fully fenced backyard, and I have one friendly, medium-sized dog who loves meeting new friends. If needed, I have the ability to keep dogs separate to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. I only take a limited number of dogs at a time so each pup gets plenty of one-on-one attention. You'll also receive regular photo updates, so you can relax knowing your best friend is having a great time while you're away.

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'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.

About: I have owned and raised dogs my whole life. I dog sit for family and friends on the regular. I have dogs of my own and I understand the need in a sitter. Please know that your pet should be some what leash trained and potty trained. Shot records must be provided. I don’t want to be responsible for your pup getting sick. I love dogs dearly, and I am willing to give them the love they deserve. Dogs will have multiple potty break and tons of fun. If they have a crate they will be in and out of the crate depending on how they react to the home. On walks they will get some jogging exercise and simple walking. I can help with sit/stay training if wanted. Thank you. Pet care is a part of my everyday life! I run a doggy daycare which is where our boarding and daycare will take place. and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, and love throughout the day and week. Your pet’s needs easily fit into my routine. We have a fenced-in yard with a pond for the dogs to play in (turf yard) and two friendly dogs who love making new friends. My home is set up for safety and comfort, with plenty of space to play and relax. I can easily crate your pup if needed and always follow any specific care instructions you provide.

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.

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 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.

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!!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Palmetto Bay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Palmetto Bay on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 4,865 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Palmetto Bay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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.

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 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.

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
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
