“She’s amazing! Kat took care of our dog and cat for 20 days while we were on our overseas vacation. She was incredibly responsible and treated our pets as if they were her own. Communication with her was super easy, and we could clearly see that our pets had an amazing time with her. I would definitely recommend Kat to anyone and will absolutely reach out to her again for future trips. Thank you, Kat! 🐾”
“Maria is truly a blessing. Leaving your cat behind is never easy, but with her, you feel complete peace of mind. She is incredibly trustworthy and responsible. She didn’t just “check in” - she cared for our cat with so much attention and kept us updated, made sure everything was clean and comfortable, and treated our baby like her own. When we came home, our cat was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for which says everything. We are so grateful to have found someone so reliable and kind. I would trust Maria again in a heartbeat.”
“As always… Dora Luz is amazing. Caring, professional, loving with the animals. She is a pro and knows how to figure out shy cats who eat too little and food motivated cats that tend to overeat (my babies are difficult). She manages to take care of them with love.”
About: I grew up in France surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, horses, and even chickens, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. Ever since I was little, I’ve naturally connected with animals and genuinely love being around them. Honestly, everywhere I go, you’ll probably see me petting the animals before even saying hi to the humans first. I’m 27 years old and currently have a 12 year old dog named Lilo and a 4 year old cat named Phoenix, so I understand both senior pet care and the attention pets need to feel safe and loved. I also horseback ride weekly, which means animals are truly part of my everyday life. As a nursing student, I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and attentive to details. I will always care for your pets with kindness, affection, and the same level of attention I would want for my own animals. I’m currently in nursing school, so my schedule can vary slightly throughout the week, but I always make time for animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I already care for my own pets daily and spend a lot of time around animals. I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m very reliable with communication, feeding schedules, medications, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand how important trust is when leaving your animals with someone else, and I will care for them as if they were my own. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, behavior changes, and making sure pets feel calm, safe, and loved.I’m naturally patient, responsible, detail oriented, and comfortable handling different personalities, including senior or anxious pets.
“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! :)”
“We heavily rely on Sam’s support afforded to Athena, which has ranged from walks to/from dog care and house siting in our place. Sam is a pleasant detail oriented, exceptional communicator that our dog enjoys hanging out.”
“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!”
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care for animals. I stick closely to your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I have experience caring for both energetic pets and senior animals, including those that need extra patience or special attention. I also prioritize clear communication, providing regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. On top of that, I treat your home with respect—keeping it clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. I currently work part time at JETSET Pilates on Tuesdays and Thursdays 6:30am-2:30pm. I will be out of town for the summer May 15th, returning in July I have experience with a verity of pets and living situations. I’ve cared for dogs with a fenced in yard along with yards without. I am very flexible
“Mariya was great in drop-ins looking after my cat and was a pleasure to work with. All communication was quick and clear, she was flexible with working out the details and meeting up, and followed all instructions. She sent lots of great pics and my cat did great while she was looking in on him. Would definitely book again.”
“Sarah is wonderful with our kitty and very reliable. She’s easy to deal with and very communicative. She’s kind and gentle with our shy kitty (who loves her!) and also does what is asked. I highly recommend Sarah!!”
About: Always walking and never ever going to let your pet feel like they will give up. Above and beyond worker. Willing to always help. Focused I am available in the early mornings most days. Also, I am available some weekends depending on the weekend. I need to be notified before scheduling appointments. When I first meet a pet. I always make sure to let the pet get comfortable with me. I slowly get used to the pet.
About: I have had numerous pets throughout my life and currently have 2 cats. I love animals and frankly have all the time in the world right now during summer to come help you with your pets. I am a full time student at FSU and am currently home for the summer. I can absolutely fit pet care into my daily routine as I am not enrolled in any summer classes. I can pass a background check if needed, (never committed a crime), and can do practically anything you need for your animals, feeding, walking, cleaning litter boxes, or just spending time with them.
“I booked Pia to take care of my three cats over past long weekend, first time I left them with a drop-in sitter .Pia was great with my cats , Cristal, Mia and Eddie were happy, they are a little anxious but when I came home they were not stressed and were very calm, Pia is kind and love cats , she also gave me some good recommendations for my cats environment since two of them sometimes fight , I would recommend 100% her to anyone , your cats will be in an excellent hands , thank you Pia !!”
“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: Hey there! I’m Mac, and I’ve been taking care of dogs for about 20+ years. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, from energetic puppies to older ones that need a little extra attention. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that’s taking them for walks, making sure they’re fed and comfy, or just hanging out and giving them all the belly rubs they deserve! I know how important it is to feel like your dog is safe and happy while you’re away, so I’m here to ensure that your babies are in a loving home. You can trust me to treat your pup like they’re my own, and can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Also, it says I have 4 dogs at home. I only have 3. I just haven’t deleted the profile of my late baby Sterling. I work from home so I will not have any distractions except for loving and attending to your baby. I have three dogs of my own and they are very social! I live in a house with a big back yard. I have 3 english bulldogs of my own. I frequently volunteer and foster dogs in our spare time. I lost my English Bulldog to cancer last March and am very familiar with handling any sort of medical care due to the medical care I had to administer to him. Truly dogs are what make me happiest.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, growing up with a sweet Labrador who was my best friend for years. This taught me how to care for pets at every stage of their lives with patience and heart. While I haven't owned a cat myself, I’m the go-to sitter for my cat-owner friends! I’ve done plenty of drop-in visits for them while they were traveling, so I’m very comfortable with feeding, litter box duties, and—most importantly—respecting a cat’s unique personality and space. I’m also experienced with pets that need extra TLC. I’ve helped a friend care for their high-maintenance dog, so I’m comfortable administering medication and providing calm companionship for pets that get a bit anxious. Whether your fur baby is a playful pup or a shy kitty, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and pampered! 🐾✨ Every drop-in visit starts with a warm greeting to make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I’ll ensure they have a fresh bowl of water and their meal served exactly as you’ve instructed. For dogs, this includes a quick potty break or some fun yard time, while for kitties, I’ll make sure the litter box is sparkling clean. Most importantly, I dedicate plenty of time to play, belly rubs, or quiet companionship, ending each visit with a cute "pupdate" and photo so you can see your happy best friend! 😊 Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Having cared for pets with high-maintenance needs and medication routines, I am extremely detail-oriented and will follow your home’s security and care instructions to the letter. I treat every home with total respect, ensuring everything is tidy and all doors are securely locked before I leave. You can trust that your furry family member is in reliable, loving hands and that their environment will stay safe and stress-free while you’re away. ✨
“Sofia was a perfect sitter for my two cats Uma and Nya while we were away visiting family during Memorial Day weekend. She was prompt to show up for feedings, playtime and followed directions to the tee! Would not hesitate to ask her to care for them again! The time of her visit, and pictures gave us peace of mind during our time away!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South Miami
Kim and Seth went above and beyond when taking care of my Cat Ramesses. Ram is very shy with new people, but he immediately opened up with them. They were extremely communicative and sent lots of photos of my baby. The place was very clean when I returned and Ram was in good spirits. I will definitely use them in the future. They exceeded all of my expectations.
Valerie took excellent care of our dynamic duo. She watched both our cats for a week and she followed instructions to a tee. She also sent lots of pics daily so we felt assured they were being taken care of. She’s a great communicator and would definitely book with her again. And lastly, our cats trusted her almost immediately!
Ada did an amazing job taking care of our cat Link! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous, but she offered to meet us beforehand for a meet and greet with Link and we could immediately tell she was very dependable and caring. She was super responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates at each visit which made us feel at ease while we were away. She even noticed that his food was running low and let us know so we could have more ordered, and she came back the next day (even though it was not officially on the scheduled request) to make sure his food bowl got filled in time. Truly a life saver and definitely recommend!
Katherine is an incredible caregiver. She treated Tamago as if she were her own. Her patience paid off, and after a few days, Tamago emerged from her shell and began to play and cuddle with her. Katherine also followed the instructions meticulously and kept me updated daily with detailed descriptions of Tamago’s progress. I would highly recommend her for Tamago’s care in the future!!!!
I couldn't be happier regarding my experience with Rebeca watching my cats. She sent daily photos and videos for twelve days of my cats purring and getting lots of scratches & treats and love. If you are considering hiring Rebeca you should absolutely do it with confidence. I would whole-heartedly recommend her and will definitely use her again the next time I leave town. She has reliable transportation, always responds within minutes to any texts, and my cats ADORED her. Thanks again Rebeca!
Maria is truly a blessing. Leaving your cat behind is never easy, but with her, you feel complete peace of mind. She is incredibly trustworthy and responsible. She didn’t just “check in” - she cared for our cat with so much attention and kept us updated, made sure everything was clean and comfortable, and treated our baby like her own. When we came home, our cat was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for which says everything. We are so grateful to have found someone so reliable and kind. I would trust Maria again in a heartbeat.
Dora Luz was fantastic! This was our first time using a service for KiKi and we were so pleased! It is obvious that Dora Luz is very experienced and our cat was very happy upon our return! We received daily updates and the pics were fabulous. We would definitely use her again! Thanks so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in South Miami on Rover is $27.75 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,446 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Miami. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Miami. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
