When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I provide fresh water, feed them according to their schedule, take them out for walks or playtime, and give them lots of love and attention.

About: I have 3 years of experience from walks to boarding to pet sitting and drops in. I also have a bunny named Toph :) This is my full time job as I have my own pet service business.

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats my whole life. My 16 year old pitbull/american bulldog mix Riley was the light of my life. She passed away in April and I’m not ready yet to adopt again. Recently I have been watching my friends dogs for company at home because my apartment feels so empty without her. I have experience with both senior dogs and puppies and reactive dogs as well. I also have experience with administering medication and caring for dogs with special needs. I am responsive around the clock- I work full time in Marine Operations at Norwegian cruise line so I am always available by phone and you will never have difficulty reaching me. Monday through Thursday I usually go to the office from about 7am - 2pm. If a dog I’m caring for needs more attention I usually just take some work from home days. Otherwise we would have a nice long sunrise walk before I leave home at 7 and an afternoon walk upon my arrival at 2:30 ish. If your dog enjoys car rides I would also love to take them on adventures to get coffee, or visit my parents (they live just 10 blocks from me). It’s really whatever your dog is accustomed to I will provide. I live in a spacious apartment 1 bed 2 bath. My building has a dog park in the complex, but I prefer to walk in my neighborhood. It’s a beautiful area with lots of waterfront and grass in front of the homes for exploring. In my apartment, Dogs are allowed on all the furniture but if that’s not allowed in your house I won’t encourage it.

About: I absolutely love dogs. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little growing up with them. I love playing and caring for them. Giving them attention always so they’re happy and playful. I’ve worked at a dog daycare/hotel so I’m experienced with taking care of a lot of pups! Walking them, playing with them, feeding them, giving them lots of love and making sure they are always good with what they need! Whatever your fur baby will be the most comfortable around I can do. You will receive as many pictures throughout the day so you can see your pup as much as you would like. My schedule is very open so I have all the time for your fur babies to play with them and care for them with so much love. My schedule will revolve around them so always have my attention! I live in an apartment with one fur baby that could keep your fur baby company and my time is flexible so I can keep your fur baby company and always play with them.

About: Hi there! My name is Dani and I’ve always had a deep love and connection with animals — especially dogs. With several years of being a pet owner and babysitting others, experience under my belt, I have taken care of many beautiful dogs. Whether your pup is full of energy, a little shy, or aging gracefully, I offer patient, attentive, and personalized care tailored to their needs. :) 🎾 As a full-time student at FIU, I plan my classes in a way that allows plenty of time for pet care during mornings, evenings, and weekends. My schedule is consistent and flexible, so I’m able to provide reliable care around your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules to walk routines and special care needs. I make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar environment by keeping things calm, clean, and consistent. I never leave pets unattended unless instructed, and I always double-check that doors, gates, and crates are secure. You can trust that I’ll provide loving, responsible care and keep you updated with photos and messages throughout my visits.🖤

About: For each service I can offer loads of love and attention to your pet. I’ve had pets my entire life so I absolutely adore animals and being able to take care of them. I own a cat myself and wish I could have more. I love making animal friends and showing them they are loved and that they matter. I will always treat them as if they were my own. I will pick up after them, play with them, talk to them, give them treats (if that is allowed) and snuggle with them in cases of house sitting. As a little girl, I wanted to be a veterinarian because I posed such a love for animals at such a young age. Instead, I just became a human that is always looking for new animal friends.

About: I have experience with boarding and walking a variety of dogs from young, untrained puppies to larger dogs. I can be relied on to check-in/walk your pets while you are at work or can take on longer multiple day stays. I’m currently a biology PhD student and my schedule currently allows for great flexibility to adapt to your pet’s needs. I’m highly communicative and excited to work with you so you feel at ease leaving your pet in my care :) I am currently a graduate student with a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to work from home if needed so I can give your pets greater attention. Otherwise, I may go in for a morning or afternoon, but have the flexibility to return home for frequent walks. I currently live with my boyfriend in Victoria Park in Ft. Lauderdale in a very pet friendly, walkable neighborhood. I’m only a couple blocks from Holiday Park where I often take any pets that come to stay with me :)

About: I’ve had animals in life since I was fifteen years old and wouldn’t have it any other way! My family considers them as another family member! I currently work remote so my schedule is extremely flexible. I can come several times a day or can even stay for extended periods of time to provide companionship. I would much rather take care of any pets in their own homes so they are as comfortable as they can be. Rather than bringing them to mine where they could be stressed since I already own a few rascals of my own.

“We couldn’t be happier with Aleja’s care for our pets while we were on vacation. She didn’t just feed them and take Lola, our dog, for her daily walks—she truly bonded with them, giving them affection and attention as if they were her own. Knowing they were in such good hands gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We came back to happy pets and a calm home, and for that, we’re very grateful. We highly recommend Aleja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring for their animals.”

About: I’ve taken care of my friends and families animals my whole life. i have my own dog romeo who is apart of the family. If i could i’d own a farm with goats, chickens, horses and just hang out with them all day. Animals are the greatest gift and remind us how to be truly present. I would love to hang out with your pups and just show them a great day or a 15 minute walk (let them scroll on their form of tiktok!!) excited to meet you all! I start my full time job later in the morning so can easily fit them into my morning schedule or lunch time. On the weekends, if i’m not working, i can literally take them for the day and they can hang with me and romeo. just depends! I take my dog on adventures and long walks daily until he gets tired and quits but we’re always going skating, trails or to local parks to exert energy and enjoy beautiful days.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for multiple dogs, including three Pekingese, a Cocker Spaniel, and a Labrador, as well as cats. At one point, my family had six dogs at the same time, giving me experience managing pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, and providing daily care and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine and will make sure they receive regular walks, playtime, care, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, providing a safe and comfortable space for your pet to feel at home.

“Julia did an amazing job of taking care of my cat while I was away for almost two weeks. She was very responsive, flexible with times and schedule changes, and always sent adorable pictures and videos. I could tell my Bella really loved having Julia watch her, and warmed up right away. I would definitely use Julia again, and recommend her for anyone's fur babies!”

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Surfside

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Surfside is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $33 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 6,667 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Surfside. 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 Surfside 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.

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

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
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
