“My dog can be really timid with strangers but quickly warmed up to Kayla due to her kind demeanor! Her communication is excellent and it really put my mind at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely invite Kayla to care for Dino again!”
About: Hi there! I know how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your pets just like you do. As a nurturing and patient stay-at-home parent, I’m home throughout the day to give your furry family members constant attention, snuggles, and playtime. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like part of the family here! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m a stay-at-home parent, I’m home throughout the day to give pets plenty of love, attention, and companionship. Walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles all fit seamlessly into my schedule, and I genuinely enjoy having animals in my home, they bring me so much joy. Their well-being is a priority, so I make sure they feel safe, cared for, and like family at all times. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe right away with plenty of love, play, and cuddles. I have a fenced-in yard where they can run, play, and explore safely and we have a dog park 2 minutes away as well! I follow their usual routine whether that’s feeding, walks, or favorite toys so they feel right at home. In a client’s home, I respect their space and care for pets just like I would in my own, keeping up with their schedule and making sure they get attention, exercise, and comfort. No matter where I’m caring for them, I treat pets like a part of my family. I also offer a free bath for your fur-baby with any week long service unless you would rather skip it-your pet’s comfort always comes first.
About: Hello! I adore animals of all kinds and have always seen my pets as part of my family. I've had years of experience with several sweet cats and dogs of my own. We've always rescued and found the best furry friends. For the last 10 years, I've cared for 2 sweet labs next door with frequent walks, meals, tuck-in service (bedtime kongs), and general cuddle puddles 4 days a week. I cat and dog sit for several neighbors and family members and have been doing so consistently for the last 12 years. My home is "beach cozy" (translation: small), so it's best suited for all cats and small-medium-sized dogs that enjoy getting out for walks. If you have a senior dog or cat that needs extra TLC or a quieter home, no kids, no other pets, and all the attention is on them, I am happy to provide a safe, comfy space! I work from home most days and have plenty of time to dedicate to pet, potty, and play breaks! I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most pet needs. I have experience with administering medication and daily IV fluids. I got very comfortable caring for my senior CKD kitty for over a year. Anything to make life better for these sweet souls I'm willing to do! I am a thoughtful and caring pet sitter and will take care of your fur friends like family!
About: I used to have 27 cats and 2 dogs in my apartment. Many of them are picked up from the street or sick. After I work with the pet doctor, I training them, and help the autism and mental disabled people and seniors people. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available on weekends and weeks day. My apartment has no other pet right now! And All the animals like me, and I have so many years experience with pet. I can easily get along with good relationships with your pets.
About: Growing up, I have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, birds, and more. As a pet friendly family, I gained a passion for caring and bonding with animals large and small. I am a firm believer that our furry friends never hide who they are and love unconditionally no matter what the situation. Pursuing my passion, I began pet sitting for family and friends in both the Southern California and South Florida communities. I have assisted with walking, feeding, playing, bathing, and giving medications when needed. I am currently working as an independent contractor with a flexible work schedule. I will be happy to work with your schedule accordingly. Looking forward to meeting your special pet. Currently, I am sharing a home with a 6 pound chihuahua and a Pit/Bulldog mix. Both pups are spoiled with lots of love and comfort. Each dog has their own beds, blankets, and toys in multiple areas of our home. Long walks and playtime are also daily activities that everyone looks forward to.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with a Labrador from the time I was born until I was around 10 years old, and since then I have had two other dogs, including a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mix and a Border Collie mix. Because of this, I have experience with different sizes, breeds, and energy levels, from large dogs that need strong handling to active dogs that need plenty of attention and playtime. I have also dog sat for family and friends before, so I understand how important it is to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I will always check in frequently with updates, make sure your dog is fed on schedule, take time to play with them, and give them the attention they need. My schedule is very flexible. I am home for the summer from UCSD and currently shadowing a doctor, but I am able to work my schedule around what is best for dog or cat sitting. I am available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can usually make most times work. I will always communicate clearly if I have something planned on a certain day, and I will make sure we figure out a schedule that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I will make sure they are cared for, supervised, and given plenty of attention while you are away. I am comfortable playing with pets, throwing tennis balls or toys, taking dogs on walks, letting them outside, and watching them closely while they are out. I will always follow your instructions for feeding, routines, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal schedule, so I will make sure they are fed on time and cared for in a safe, responsible, and loving environment.
“Jelena was awesome. Couldn’t ask for more. She was flexible and responded quickly. She communicated thoroughly and efficiently. She showed up at the times scheduled and followed instructions, sent pics, and communicated before, during, and after her visits. I was very nervous using a stranger who had never met our dog before. Usually I try to arrange meet and greets. He has only been cared for by family and is big, intimidating looking, and can be a little quirky sometimes. But I was in a jam at the last minute so I found Jelena. So glad I did! She was great at greeting him and understanding how to interact with his size, breed, needs, and temperament. Jelena was conscientious and thoughtful with how she left our dog and our home after her visit. Look forward to having her return!”
About: I have a deep love for all animals and have grown up caring for pets my entire life. I have extensive experience sitting for various breeds and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to gentle seniors. I’m very comfortable managing feeding schedules, long walks, and providing the specific attention each unique pet needs to feel safe and happy. I balance my time between graduate school and teaching, which allows me to offer dedicated care during the early mornings and evenings. My schedule is very consistent, meaning I can provide your pets with a reliable routine they can count on. I also have wide-open availability on weekends for pet sitting and extended adventures, ensuring your furry friends get plenty of focused attention and exercise. Safety and trust are my top priorities when entering a client's home. I am extremely diligent about following all home security protocols, ensuring doors are locked and alarms are set. I maintain a clean, organized environment and strictly follow the 'house rules' you’ve established for your pets. Whether it’s keeping curious paws away from hazards or making sure the water bowl is always fresh, I treat your home with the same respect and care that I give my own.
“I recently had Natasja drop in to care for my dog, Joey, and I couldn't be more satisfied. She was professional, punctual, and clearly passionate about animals. My usually shy dog, Joey, quickly warmed up to her, which put my mind at ease. Natasja followed all care instructions perfectly, spent extra time playing with Joey, and provided regular updates and adorable photos. I highly recommend Natasja for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter and will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Natasja, for taking such wonderful care of Joey!”
“Jessica did an awesome job! She went above and beyond for me. My cats are very messy eaters and she did a great job cleaning the bowls, wiping down the countertops, and cleaning the litter box. She also lit my candles so the house smelled nice when I came home. She gave great updates and took awesome pictures of my babies. I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Naomi is the best! She took such great care, time, and gave our sweet dog soo much affection. She also administered her medication and insulin shots like a pro. My dog loved her! Thanks soo Much Naomi!!! And the pictures and videos were perfect! We highly recommend this beautiful lady to anyone in need of a pet sitter! 5 stars!!!!”

I have experience with overnight sitting of anxious pups that require medication administration as well as dog walking with both small and large breeds. I have two indoor cats that I have been responsible for since kittens.

“Danielle is amazing! She stopped by twice to take my pup on a potty walk. She took photos to ensure me kayn was being taken care of. I will definitely be using Danielle again for future visits ! Thank you so much!”
About: Hi I’m Serena! I’m currently in my master’s program at CSULB! I work hard and give so much love to every single one of my client’s fur babies depending on all their needs. I've grown up with 5+ dogs in my lifetime and taken care of dogs and cats of every kind and size since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their pets while they were on vacation to walk, feed, and administering their medication (both orally and injections) to their pets. I've taken animal CPR and have lots of experience with senior care with three senior dogs. I’m current attending college at CSULB but I am available in the mornings and evenings for drop in visits. For overnight or extended stays I am available Sunday-Saturday. I will care for them in your home and follow the instructions given to feed and drop in visits. If they are allowed outside, I will go outside with them and keep an eye on them both day and night. I will never let them outside on their own due to safety reasons. If discussed and allowed to housesit, I will keep your pets company for hours doing my quiet hobbies (Reading, drawing, etc.) since my pets tend to dislike being alone in the house for long periods of time.

Kaylee was a joy to have as a cat sitter! It was our first time using a service like this and Kaylee made us feel very comfortable. She even set up a time to meet and greet our kitties ahead of time and get to know how we take care of them! My favorite part was Kaylee sending the daily updates with lots of photos. I looked forward to that time everyday on our trip & it was so reassuring to know that they were happy and having a good time with Kaylee! Thank you so much for taking care of our babies, Kaylee 😊
Maddy followed through with everything we asked. Reptar is a little jerk to new people sometimes but she was able to get him to come out, play a little, and become friends with him by the end of his care. He didn’t have any accidents when I came home which is the best thing I could ask for since he’s likes to when I’m out of town to make me know he’s mad with a stranger. That just shows how great she was with him. would definitely book her again!
Sofia was an excellent pet sitter. I was traveling for 3 weeks out of the country and Sofia dropped by every other day and took car of my multiple cats. The cats are a handful and one required medication and Sofia did a great job. She fed and watered them as well as cleaned their litter boxes. Three of the cats hide in my sofa and she aways looked in it to make sure the three shy cats were there and ok. She also proved updates and pictures of the various cats which I enjoyed looking at from across the world during my vacation. I would highly recommend Sofia for any of your pet sitting needs.
I would highly recommend Alisa and wouldn’t hesistate rebooking her services. She was communicative and easy to work with. She took great care of our pets and sent photo updates to us which reassured our smallest members of the family were well taken care of. Thanks Alisa!
Jadyn was professional, trustworthy, and communicative. When my cat first met her, he warmed up to her immediately, and I felt comfortable during the time I was away. Jadyn sent me daily updates and pictures which let me know he was well cared for, and put my mind at ease.
We booked Faith for 3 at-home visits and she was GREAT! Our cat loved spending time with her from day 1. She is trustworthy and is good at sending detailed notes, videos, and updates. I was truly surprised to see Moonie so comfortable and loving towards, her right away. She definitely has an inviting and loving energy that Moonie immediately felt. We will definitely reach out to her when we leave town again. Thank you, Faith!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Surfside on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Surfside. On Rover:
- 88% 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.
