“Ariela was amazing! She took really good care of my little guy. It was my first time leaving him alone so I was a bit nervous but she sent me loads of photos and gave him so much love. 😊”
“Marissa has been so helpful! Our puppy is so energetic, so young, and honestly a handful and Marissa has more than kept up. She makes sure our pup is cared for and she keeps us updated with everything that happens, we feel so comfortable with her around Winston. He can be a little needy, and truthfully so is his dad (lol) and she has been happy to help with all of our specific instructions. We couldn’t have had a better experience!”
About: Having cared for pets for 25 years, I understand the importance of providing not just care, but companionship and trust. My experience has taught me how to offer gentle, personalized attention, especially for senior pets. I focus on making them feel comfortable and secure in their own space, offering them the love and care they need. Whether it's providing companionship or light exercise, I ensure their well-being is always the priority. Your pet will receive the same love and respect as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I believe in providing consistent, loving attention to every animal. Each day, I make sure they are fed on schedule, comfortable, and happy. I also spend quality time with them through play, walks, or simply offering companionship. Weekly, I focus on any additional tasks needed to maintain a safe and healthy environment. Caring for pets is a rewarding part of my routine that I always prioritize. I believe in providing pets with a loving and caring environment. I make sure they’re comfortable, fed on time, and have plenty of attention throughout the day. I offer daily playtime, walks, or cuddle sessions depending on the pet’s needs. I also ensure their living space is kept clean and hygienic. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and provide the same loving care and attention, making sure the pet feels secure and happy while their owners are away.
“Valentina was amazing! She was very accommodating to our last minute dates and detailed in wanting to get to know our dog Bronx. She was very caring with him. We highly recommend her.”
“Alexandrea was nothing short of amazing! To say she helped us enjoy our trip away from our fur babies would be an understatement. Knowing she was looking after our dogs and caring for them while we were out of town was reassuring. Alexandrea was professional, reliable, dependable, and communicative! We will definitely request her services in the future! Also, big shout out to the Rover app! Game changer for us! Very user friendly and trustworthy! Thank you Rover and Alexandrea! You made a difficult situation (being away from our dogs) doable!”
“Rachelle was a fantastic sitter for my cats! She was easy to contact and responded to messages in a timely manner. My kitties took to her immediately, and I was pleasantly surprised to see pictures of my normally shy babies sitting in her lap! She also left the cat bowls and litter boxes very clean, and even took out the trash without being asked. Leaving my cats under Rachelle's care gave me great piece of mind on my week-long trip, and I would highly recommend her. Thank you, Rachelle! :)”
“Kelly is so great with my puppy! She has great communication and sends the cutest pictures!! She also takes great care of my home while she is there.”
About: I have an older cat who means the world to me, so I understand how important it is to find someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. Since I work from home, your cat will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I also make it a priority to send regular updates and photos because I know how reassuring they are. I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m around throughout the day for feedings, playtime, litter box care, and companionship, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. I live in a clean, calm condo and prioritize safety at all times. I keep doors and windows secure, maintain a pet-friendly environment, and closely follow each pet’s routine and instructions.
“Brenda is very reliable and responsible person. She was amazing with our two older dogs. We went on vacation for 11 days to other country and thanks to her we were able to enjoy it fully and not worry too much. She was great in communicating with us all the time and sending pictures. We will definitely reach out to her next time we need to take care of our babies.”
“Nicole was absolutely fantastic with my Shepherd. She was super patient flexible and took great care of my dog needs. Will be seeing you again thank you so much.”
“Toni is great. She visited my cat 3x. Sent pictures and described any conditions occurring. The meet and greet was great. Energetic, warm welcoming personality; she loves her animals which is wonderful!! Definitely recommend and will call upon Toni again!!!”
“Nicole was amazing with our dogs! She was super attentive to their needs, was very punctual, and gave them lots of loving. I would highly recommend her for your dogs! She was very knowledgeable and great at handling them. A+ will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Kelly accepted another short notice request, then extended it a day after my work schedule changed last minute. She is a natural with the dogs, and I was able to focus on my job while out of town knowing the pups were well attended to.”

Bianca was absolutely amazing! She did drop-in visits with our dog, Kash, while we were out of town, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She provided great updates after every visit, kept us informed on how he was doing, and followed every instruction we left for his care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Kash was in good hands while we were away. We would definitely book with Bianca again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive 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!
Yasmine was absolutely amazing with Arlo! She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated, and handled everything with such care and professionalism. It was clear that she genuinely cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable while I was away. She also treated my home with so much respect and left everything just as I had it. Coming home to a happy, relaxed boy gave me so much peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Yasmine to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again!
So sweet and very communicative! Got back to me almost immediately when I sent the request and she was able to watch my dog for me while I was away on a short notice! Sent pictures and reported back to me every time! Will be going back with Maria for sure and I highly recommend her!!!
We recently moved and needed to find a new dog walker after years with the same person for our boy, Zeus. He is a senior, stubborn old man, and doesn't trust easily. From the moment Stephanie walked in the door, Zeus was in love! Not only can she get him to go out for walks, but he brings his toys to her and waits for her to pet him after their walks. We are thrilled with Stephanie and can't wait to have her back to see Zeus! Highly recommend.

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 Plantation 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.
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 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 Plantation with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 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.
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.
