About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was a little kid — and they never left. When I was 10 years old, I got a Rottweiler puppy who was only one month old. I raised him myself for 13 wonderful years, so I truly understand big, strong dogs: their energy, their loyalty, and how sweet they can be. My whole life I've also lived with Poodles, Cocker Spaniels, and Yorkies, so I know small breeds just as well — their coats, their grooming, and their sweet personalities. Friends have always trusted me to care for their dogs too: large, medium, and small. My services are a great fit for puppies, young dogs, and healthy adult dogs of all sizes. Please note: I do not accept senior dogs or dogs with complex medical needs — every dog deserves specialized care, and I prefer to be honest from the start. I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese! Caring for dogs isn't a side job for me — it's been my daily routine my whole life, and now it's my work here at home in Davie. I'm available for walks, drop-in care, sitting, and boarding, including weekends. My days are organized around the dogs in my care: morning walks, feeding on schedule, playtime, rest, and lots of company throughout the day — never a dog sitting alone and bored. I happily adapt to your dog's routine: playful puppies full of energy, or calm adult dogs who enjoy a steady, relaxed pace. Safety and trust come first in my home — always. I have real experience handling strong large breeds like my Rottweiler, so big dogs are walked securely and confidently, with a secure leash and calm control. With small breeds like Yorkies and Poodles, I'm extra gentle and careful. Dogs stay inside my clean home in Davie, supervised and never caged, and I only care for a small number at a time. I follow your instructions exactly — food, schedule, and habits — and I send you daily photo updates, so you can relax knowing your best friend is safe, loved, and happy.
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds from Malteses to American Bulldogs.

About: I’ve cared for pets most of my life, including a small dog since I was 4 and a medium-sized dog since I was 13. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, and providing loving care. I currently work only one day a week, so I have plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I’m also available on weekends and can work around my school schedule. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have experience caring for dogs and cats and always make sure they receive proper attention, supervision, and care.
“I always book with Felipe because he’s reliable and consistent. When I see the pictures my Alonzo is so happy . I have a peace of mind knowing someone is caring for my fur baby with love and cared for !”
About: Over the years I have cared for a variety of animals, including domestic, exotic, and livestock. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their medically needy animals over the past decade and I am now opening that service up to Rover. I'm not a vet tech but I am comfortable and experienced administering a variety of medical treatments like insulin injections, pill regiments, eye drops/skin ointments, and subq fluids. Leaving town with a pet can be stressful, especially one that needs specialized care. I can help. Currently over all I have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have my own small business that is sporadic gig work on the weekends. Most events last 4 to 6 hours, maximum 8 hours, and not every weekend has events. I prefer to pet sit in the home the pets belong to. I find that with most animals it's incredibly stressful to move them, staying in their home with them minimalizes that stress. It also allows for easier medicine administration. I like to meet the pets and owners ahead of staying with them, this is to again reduce the stress on your pet when I show up without you as well as to observe the quality of care you are administering to your fur babies.
About: Mostly my way with animals and be able to handle anything I am a very amazing worker and I would do anything to help animals. I am currently not working so it really does well for me meaning I would be available at anytime the customer would want me for anything. I live in an apartment with one dog and a baby your dog or cat would be safe with me because my doggie loves cats and dogs and I can give my undivided attention to your pup.
About: I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m very patient, attentive, and communicative, and I always keep pet parents updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. I pay close attention to details, follow instructions closely, and prioritize safety at all times. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, or older, I adapt my care to meet them exactly where they are. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for every pet. Since i have no pets of my own, your pet will receive plenty of attention.

Morgan is a life saver and an actual angel. Morgan stepped in at the last-minute to save my dogs from a sitter who dropped out and from the moment she walked in through the front door, Morgan's natural touch with dogs was obvious. Morgan knows how to care for your pets, follows instructions and communicates clearly when needed. My dogs formed a quick bond with her on day 3 of the 8-day sitting, which shows how amazing Morgan is at that she does. I was able to relax on my family vacation and when I came home my babies were exactly how I'd left them so she cared for them exactly how I do. I will love to work with Morgan again in the near future as there's no one else I would trust with my dogs. Thank you Morgan for your time and effort, you should feel very proud of yourself for the excellent work that you do. My family, myself and Molly & Mason are forever grateful ❤️
I cannot say enough great things about Nathalya. She really came through for me and my animals. I had to be hospitalized unexpectedly due to a medical issue and had no one to care for my animals. Nathalya was able to make time to come feed them and spend time with them at the last minute for me. I’m very grateful and appreciative to her care for my babies. Could not recommend her enough!
Sabrina has been absolutely wonderful with Cali! 🐾❤️ She is reliable, caring, attentive, and treats Cali so good! I felt comfortable knowing Cali is in such good hands when she’s with Sabrina. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure Cali was happy, safe, and well cared for. I highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their fur baby! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jill went over and above to care for our two golden retrievers! This was our first time leaving our dogs at home overnight— and for 3 days . It was such a comfort to know that Jill was stopping in to care for them throughout the day. They are happy & well cared for- highly recommend!
Roy is amazing! We were able to get him booked very last minute. He came over the morning of to meet Rusty and Myah. Our plan was for him to come back later in the afternoon. Well 2 hours into our trip, I noticed the cat snuck out and was in the pool area. Torrential downpour and Roy was on his was to save kitty :-) 5 stars isn’t enough.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Plantation is $30 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $43 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,045 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Plantation. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Plantation 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. 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.
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.

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 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.
