“I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn to anyone! She was a great dog sitter and did very well with Charlie. She has a natural, gentle way with dogs. She was prompt, personable and professional. I would absolutely hire her again and so should you! !”


“Azucena (Zu) took such great care of Titi over the weekend! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing Titi was in good hands. She followed all instructions perfectly, kept us updated with pictures and videos, and showed so much love and attention to Titi, especially important since she’s a senior dog. We could tell Titi was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. Zu went above and beyond, and we truly appreciated her communication and kindness. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. Thank you so much, Zu! ❤️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. I have petsitted a few times in Nicaragua, but the service was never as popular. I currently have a ten year old cocker spaniel named Leia, who you can see in my picture. I’m a proud dog friend and an aspiring cat friend as I haven’t had much experience with cats. However, I love animals (as long as they are not insects). I am one to pay close attention to pet body language, and I will make sure to provide the most comfort and love to your furbaby 💕 I’m currently working part-time so I will be super happy to fit any pet care into my schedule. I’m very punctual will petsit for you on friday and weekends, when you usually want to go out and enjoy human time ✨ I’m happy to provide any tools and help you acquire items for your pet. If you need me to pet-shop too, I will! I also have a car of my own, so there is no end to dog parks we can visit. I will go and stay at your home as much as you need in order to care for your pet. Everybody at home adores pets.

“Samantha took wonderful care of Dino! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Dino came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She was kind, attentive, and made sure he was comfortable. I truly appreciate the love and care she gave him. I would definitely trust her with Dino again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Samantha! ❤️🐶”

“Marcela was great watching our two girlies! She did a visit to ensure we were comfortable prior to the booking, easing our stress of being away/out of country. One is high energy and the other is older and she was able to tend to both. They are on meds that require a schedule and Marcela made sure her schedule aligned with theirs to make sure they were comfortable. Our flight was delayed and she offered to stay to ensure Belle got her medicine at the right time. Will definitely book again for trips knowing our girls will be taken care of!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.”

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.
“Karla was absolutely wonderful! She was able to accommodate a last-minute house-sitting request, which I truly appreciated. My pup wasn’t feeling well at the time, and Karla went above and beyond—carefully administering medication and making sure he was comfortable and well cared for. I came home to happy, healthy pups and a well-kept home, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend Karla to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter!”

About: I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate approach to pet care, with hands-on experience fostering and caring for dogs of all temperaments—including rescues and anxious pups. I’m highly detail-oriented, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I prioritize safety, routine, exercise, and emotional comfort, whether that means long walks, structured play, or quiet companionship. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my patience, and my ability to tune into each pet’s unique needs—giving owners peace of mind and pets a stress-free, loving experience. I work remotely full time (M-F, 8am–5pm), meaning I’m home most of the day and can give your pup plenty of attention and timely breaks. Before caring for your pup, I like to discuss their routine in detail—including medications, exercise needs, anxiety levels, and behavior with other dogs, animals, or people—to ensure the best experience for everyone.
“I had a great experience with my Alize! She was punctual, very friendly, and clearly loves animals. She followed all of my instructions carefully, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. My puppy seemed happy and well cared for when I returned!”

About: I have fostered dogs all throughout college. I recently adopted a dog that I previously fostered. I am good with helping anxious dogs socialize and feel comfortable with other dogs as well as people. I will take your dog to parks and help them with any medical needs - I have experience in that too! I am comfortable with both house sitting as well as pet boarding. I am willing to be flexible with scheduling and pricing depending on the days requested and distance needed to be traveled. I also have a good relationship with my local veterinarian and will be able to provide emergency care for your pet if needed. I want you and your pet to be happy and at peace when you they are under my care. I am currently working from home, so I can dedicate time and attention to all your pet's needs! I enjoy taking frequent breaks to take care of my mental and physical health and will be able to do the same for you pets :) I have a fenced backyard for safety. Additionally, plenty of dog beds and toys for your pet's comfort. I am also a very vigilant dog walker due to my own dog being anxious around other dogs. I will make sure that your dog's safety is always my priority.

“Adriana was amazing. I found her at the last minute when the person I had to take care of my new rescued kitten bailed on me. Without hesitation, she was there to assist me and was very understanding about my nerves of leaving my 4 week kitten with a total stranger. She messaged me about my kitten and sent pictures so that I could be at ease. I unfortunately had to extend a day and without hesitation again, she was willing and able to do Rap for me. I could tell that she truly loved my kitten and took good care of her. At the return of my kitten I even got a surprise painting of her which I thought was super sweet. I would definitely recommend Adriana and when I need another sitter for my fur baby, I will definitely rebook with her. You can definitely tell that Adriana is a person that loves animals. Thank you Adriana fur being there and easing my nerves.”

“Alana was wonderful with our baby Kaya. She sent photos, updates and was quick to answer any questions we had. She was able to give our dog her medicine, and took her for her regular walks. We came home to a spotless home, and a happy dog. We look forward to having Alana come back soon, without hesitation. Thank you Alana!”

About: As an RN with over 11 years of experience, I understand the importance of being dependable, attentive, and compassionate. Those same qualities guide the care I provide for every dog and cat. I’m also a devoted dog mom to a senior Min Pin named Canela. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I have firsthand experience caring for dogs with complex medical needs, administering oral and topical medications, monitoring recovery after surgery, and recognizing subtle changes in a dog’s condition or behavior. Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, a drop-in visit for potty breaks, playtime, meals, fresh water, or medication, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your companion is well cared for. At this time, I primarily offer dog walking and drop-in visits so I can continue caring for Canela. I also offer limited boarding for one guest dog at a time in a calm home environment. Pet care is already part of my daily routine as a devoted dog mom to my senior Min Pin, Canela. I structure my schedule around caring for her first each day, which allows me to provide dependable dog walking and drop-in visits Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM, and weekends from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM. This routine helps me give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own. During drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, walks, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I’ll also make sure your home is respected and secure by following any instructions you provide, such as locking doors, bringing in packages, or adjusting lights if requested. My goal is to keep your pet safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away, giving you peace of mind every step of the way.

About: Animals have always been a very important part of my life. I have cared for dogs and cats throughout my entire life and have a genuine love for all pets. While growing up in Peru, I rescued numerous abandoned dogs and cats, helping them recover by providing care, food, and lots of affection until they regained their health. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, dedication, and paying close attention to the individual needs of each animal. Since moving to the United States, I have cared for two dogs and one cat, providing them with a life filled with love, comfort, and attention. My most recent dog had a disability and required daily medication, a special diet, and additional care. Through this experience, I learned the importance of maintaining routines, administering medications properly, and being attentive to any special needs a pet may have. I strive to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I am responsible, caring, and highly observant of their physical and emotional needs. My priority is to ensure that your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available during weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding, ensuring that they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, and daily routines. I maintain a clean, safe, and calm environment, supervise pets at all times, and make sure they have fresh water, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection so they feel comfortable and happy.

About: I have always had a passion for animals since i was young. I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a part of my daily routine. I come from a family of five, and my younger siblings are full of energy, so if your dog loves to play, they’ll always have plenty of attention and fun. My family and friends regularly trust me to care for their pets because they know I’ll treat them like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. We have a golden doodle and cockapoo. They are taken for walks at least once/twice a day and sometimes take trips to the dog park. Other then that they run around outside in the yard multiple times throughout the day. We have a safe fenced in backyard with a splash in pool. I treat every pet as if they were my own by creating a calm, loving, and stress-free environment where they can feel at home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they receive the care they’re used to. Whether we’re going on walks, playing, or relaxing at home, I’ll always keep a close eye on them and make sure they are safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away.

Samantha took wonderful care of Dino! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Dino came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She was kind, attentive, and made sure he was comfortable. I truly appreciate the love and care she gave him. I would definitely trust her with Dino again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Samantha! ❤️🐶

I highly recommend Karla to watch your fur babies! She’s so sweet and very attentive. She did such an amazing job staying with my 3 dogs. I felt so at ease with them being under her care while I was away traveling. She stayed in touch with me, sent updates, and photos which I greatly appreciate. Thank you Karla!!!

Anelys is an complete and total treasure and deserves as much business as she can handle!! Although this was our first time using her, she made certain to make our dog, Charlie, feel completely at home in hers. She was extremely open with her communication, sending periodic pictures to us during each day. She is an absolute joy! I truly wish I could give her 10 stars!

FAQs for House Sitting - South Miami Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in South Miami Heights on Rover is $48.84 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,647 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Miami Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred South Miami Heights walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in South Miami Heights maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 South Miami Heights 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
