I have 2 Yorkshire terriers of my own whom my oldest is 11 and youngest is 5 I love dogs and all animals and will always treat them with the upmost love and care as if they were my own! Always I understand how much our pets are like family to us! I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, with some days in the office and some days at home, which allows me to integrate your pet into my daily and weekly routine easily. On the days I work from home, I can spend more time with your pet, providing regular walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. Even on in-office days, I plan my mornings and evenings around feeding, exercise, and bonding time. I have a fenced house where the dogs will have plenty of space to run and have fun as well as two friendly doggies, they are fully vaccinated to date and have flea/tick protection as well as the grassed area.

About: I’ve been running my own dog-sitting/walking business for 14 years, and at this point I’ve shared a space with all breeds, ages, and personalities, including those with special needs and physical impairments. I’ve learned that every dog has their own unique routine, quirks, and way of feeling at home. My goal is to figure out what that looks like and meet them where they’re at, so I can give them a safe, happy home away from home. Weekdays: Remote tech job from home, which allows me to easily cater to your pet’s routine. Weekends: Homebody by nature, so they will always have company. Inside (building): Dog-welcoming environment with a designated elevator. Inside (apartment): I like to set up a cozy space that’s theirs. From there, they’re welcome to interact and share my space as much or as little as they’d like. An unwashed shirt from the owner is always welcome to keep familiar pheromones nearby. Outside: A park with a safe walking path away from busy streets, plus plenty of shaded, grass-covered patches to keep their paws cool on hot Miami days.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and have been vegan since 2018 because I believe in respecting and protecting all animals. I currently care for three rescued Shih Tzus who have been part of my life for over 10 years they are truly like my children. This is not just pet care for me, it is a way of life. I have over 10 years of real experience living daily with dogs, understanding their needs, emotions, and routines. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, to the park, and even to the beach when possible, always making sure they feel safe, active, and loved. My approach is simple: treat every dog as if they were my own. I provide calm, responsible, and attentive care in a safe environment. If you are looking for someone who truly loves animals and doesn’t see this as just a job, I would be happy to take care of your dog. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work remotely Monday through Friday, with only one in-office day per week for about three hours. This gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the dogs I care for during the week. I already have three rescued Shih Tzus, so caring for dogs is a normal and essential part of my everyday life. My routine is built around their needs morning walks, regular potty breaks, play time, and a calm, structured environment throughout the day. Because I am home most of the time during weekdays, I can provide consistent attention, supervision, and companionship. Dogs are never an “extra task” in my day they are part of my lifestyle. On Saturdays, I am fully available and can dedicate more time for boarding, walks, and extended care. Sundays are my day off since I work on-site and am not available. I’m used to balancing work and pet care in a way that ensures every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I live in a secure, pet-friendly luxury apartment in Miami, just steps from the beach and some of the city’s most beautiful parks. The environment is calm, clean, and fully suitable for dogs, providing a safe and comfortable space at all times. In addition, I have access to a private home outside Miami with a garden and pool, which I occasionally use for extended outdoor time and enrichment activities, depending on scheduling and suitability. As a dog owner myself with three rescued Shih Tzus, my entire lifestyle is built around structure, safety, and high-quality care. Every space I use is fully adapted to ensure a secure, supervised, and stress-free environment for dogs. My priority is to provide a refined, attentive, and trustworthy care experience where dogs feel relaxed, safe, and genuinely at home.

“Kelly was amazing with my German Shepherd puppy when he had his cone on! She kept me updated and sent great pictures. When I accidentally locked her out, she found a solution and still took care of Powell! I would absolutely have Kelly watch him again!”

I’m calm, attentive, reliable, and respectful of every cat’s individual personality and routine. During each visit, I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, litter care, playtime, and affection—or give your cat space if that’s what makes them feel most comfortable.

When caring for a cat in their home, I follow their normal routine and your instructions as closely as possible. I’ll make sure doors and windows are secure, food and water are refreshed, the litter box is clean, and your cat receives the right balance of playtime, affection, and space. I’ll also keep an eye out for any changes in their behavior or appetite and send you photos and updates after each visit. I’m respectful of every client’s home and will leave everything clean and secure.

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.
