“This was my first time booking with Rover so I was quite nervous, but Michelle was absolutely amazing! She made me feel at ease and my cats felt right at home for 2 weeks. She accommodated their needs and gave them plenty of love and attention, giving me peace of mind while I was away. I was sent plenty of photos and videos, and she ensured they had plenty of toys and scratchers to keep them entertained. I recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter, and I will go to her again if I need another booking! Thank you again Michelle!! :)”
“Donna is always the best person to take care of our boys. Every time she greets them with open arms they have such a fun time that they sometimes don’t want to leave they come up like they are gonna show us everything rather than excited to come home with us. I am so grateful that they feel so at home with her which gives us great peace of mind while away. She always sends us pictures twice a day of them having fun. Thank you again Donna. You’re truly the best!”
“I've never left my babies with anyone and had so much anxiety leaving them with a sitter. However Darvis assured me they would be just fine. He was awesome with the daily updates and took very good care of my babies. Now that I know I have a professional awesome sitter I can start traveling a bit more cause I surely will be using him again! Thanks Darvis and God Bless!!!!!!!”
“King was understanding of Xenas needs and inquired in her behaviors. She not super friendly at first because she shy. Once she warmed up I saw pics and videos of her on walk. I would definitely rebook.”
“Andy and his family took exceptional care of our two miniature dachshunds, who definitely aren’t your average dogs when it comes to the attention and care they need. They’re very cuddly, a little needy, and thrive on lots of love and affection. We provided Andy with a detailed daily care routine, and he followed every instruction perfectly without any issues. He also sent us photos every day, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, he was incredibly flexible and accommodating with both our drop-off and pickup times. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much to Andy and his family for taking such wonderful care of our pups! 🙏”
“I knew my dogs were in good hands from the second I met Tito! He also kept me updated with photos throughout their stay. I will only hire him for the future. Thank you!!!!”
“Julie is the absolute best. She treated Bella as her own. She also sent tons of pics and video of her time with Bella. Julie gave me such peace of mind as this was my first Rover booking. So happy to have found Julie and she will always be my 1st choice for future bookings.”
“Alberto has been absolutely wonderful with my dog! They are reliable, caring, and treat my pet like family. I always get daily updates and photos, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It’s clear they truly love what they do. I can’t recommend Alberto enough — my dog is always happy, healthy, and excited to see them. Gracias”
“I had a last minute urgent trip and was so nervous of having to leave my puppy so soon after getting her, but Sebastian & fam put me at ease and as soon as Ruth met them I felt so much better. The connection was instant and you can tell they love dogs. I got constant pictures & updates, and she was happy when I picked her up. Definitely recommend and will use again.”
“William is just great . He kept us updated all the time and sent us pictures constantly. He loved our dog in his stay , and kept hiking called during new years. It gave us a piece of mind to leave our dog with William as we knew he was going to take care of him so well . William is just such a good person and a dog lover. Recommend William 100 %”
“So glad I found Andrea! Usually Lulu doesn't eat or play when boarded somewhere new, and this time she was comfortable so quickly with Andrea at her home. I received photos and updates daily. Andrea is very communicative and I will definitely book with her again.”
“Amy is amazing and Winnie had the best time staying with her! I received so many pictures and updates it made me feel so happy to know she was in great hands. A million thanks for everything Amy! XO.”
“Very friendly. Every thing went well and I felt confident my baby was going to be okay once the meet and greet was done. Lots of freedom for our pup to run around like at home. Secure and fenced in. Thanks for your quick response.”
“Teresa was wonderful with Penny. Sent many pictures and updates throughout the booking. Penny had a great time. We hope she is available when we need a dog sitter again.”
“Such an amazing sitter. Rocket loved every minute with her. He was treated well. She kept me update, sent pictures everyday. I will definitely book again. I felt extremely comfortable knowing he was in good hands.”
“Kristy and her family were great! She even offered a meet and greet before we booked (no one has ever offered that to us befor on Rover). They took great care of Spike and sent us photos and kept us updated during our time away. Will book with them again if they’re available. Thanks Kristy!”
“Debi is the best! Our little Brody always has a great time! It’s very reassuring to be able to go away and know Brody is in loving and caring hands when we are away. Debi is always immediately responsive and an amazing dog sitter.”

“I’m so happy that I found Brianna! She did a wonderful job checking in on our elderly cat. She kept me notified via pictures and answered all my questions regarding my cast’s well-being. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Audrey was really great with my cats, she took care of them, followed all the instructions, and all the time in constantly communication providing details of her drop-in visit. For sure I’ll book her again to take care of them.”
“This was the first time that I trusted my cats to be taken care of by anyone other than my family, and in the future Allison will be my go to person. She is extremely detail oriented, punctual, and caring. I received daily pics/videos and she was very communicative. I look forward to a lasting sitter relationship with her….highly recommend!!!!”
“Zeta did a great job with our cat. He is very shy and she was able to get him to come out from hiding and sniff her. She kept us up to date with him and looked after him well. Would recommend. Thanks Zeta!”
About: i’ve had 3 pet dogs in my life since i was 10 years old, 13 years later, i’m down to two and i still love them with all my heart! i moved from Connecticut to Florida and looking to work doing something i love, caring for pets :) i know lots of the dogs on my street and i want to meet more! i have a neighbor who relies on me to watch her male chihuahua once in a while when her female pomski is in heat, and i used watch my cousins shihtzu when they would travel. i’m very strict about walking these guys on a schedule. my dogs have to go outside at least every 7 hours or less (i try to walk them whenever i have to “go” to get an idea). i have lots of experience with pets (mainly small and medium dogs 2-25lbs) i enjoy learning their different personalities likes and dislikes. i’ll care for your dog like it’s my own, :) <3 i’m happy to send constant updates feel free to ask me any questions about my experience and or my own pups :) i work part time so i have a lot of free time, i’m plan on starting small, and hopefully with the service i provide, i’ll build clientele and in a year i could raise my prices if the demand is high enough. right now my plan is to make enough cash to take online courses for a future career in my home i walk my dogs minimum of 3 times a day although most days it’s 4 (they dont wake up through the night and they sleep about 10-12 hours) i make them food most days, they’re picky about their food so i don’t have kibble at home in your home, i can make your pets food as well, so long you provide the ingredients of course i do well with walking them on schedules my dogs go to the dog park maybe once a week or maybe the beach, something fun as a sitter that’s something i can do for you as well im more than happy to take picture and videos and send you updates on your fur baby to help you feel more at ease with the distance between you and them <3
“Deena was fantastic and I’ll definitely be booking again! She took great care of my cat for 10 days and we didn’t have to worry about a thing the whole time. We got pictures and updates everyday! We came home to a very happy and healthy cat, thanks to Deena. 100% recommend!!”
“5/5 Stars - Excellent Care for My Furry Friend! I recently hired Tetiana to care for my cat sushi, while I was away for a few days. I was thoroughly impressed with the exceptional care and attention Tetiana provided.”
“Rhokia is so wonderful with our 2 cats. They are very shy and typically hide when anyone comes into the house. But they both feel completely comfortable with Rhokia, which is amazing.”
“Justine is great! She checked in on my cat while I was out of town. She was punctual, very communicative, and kept me updated with photos, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again.”
“Hanna was so patient with our anxious cat. We appreciate her doing her best to make our cat feeling safe enough. She would give us a detailed text on how our cat was doing. Thanks Hanna for all your help!”
“Amazing!! Our first time using Heather and she went above and beyond for our babies. One of our kitties has been sick since adoption and we couldn’t have left her in better hands. From bringing the extra treats, toys, puzzles, and giving them all the loving - we can’t recommend her enough!”
“Elizabeth was great while taking care of my cat. She took the time to make sure he was comfortable and kept me informed at all times! Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Leo did an absolutely fantastic job taking care of my dogs, Bentley and Abby. This was the first time I’ve ever used a dog-sitting service, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Leo was incredibly professional, attentive, and made sure my dogs were well cared for while I was away. Being away from your dogs can be stressful, and the most important thing is knowing they’re in great hands. Leo gave me that peace of mind and made the whole experience easy and reassuring. I highly recommend Leo to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be using him again in the future. Thanks again, Leo!”
“Nicole took such amazing care of my cat for the week and made being away so much less stressful. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was super communicative and I know my cat was really well cared for.”
“Stella was amazing! She is always our top choice to care for our cats (and our home) while we are out of town. She communicated daily on the status of our cats and provided pictures/videos to reassure us. She helps us to enjoy our vacations by making sure that we know our pets are in good care.”

“Amy was amazing. She clearly loves dogs. Throughout the day, she gave me updates on my sweet puppy. She offered advice with him, since she knows I’ve only had him a few days, and she also offered to help train him. She goes above and beyond and I highly recommend her.”
“Andy and his Dad Julio were phenomenal. They gave me updates and my dog got to play with other dogs! They even let him on the couch since he’s hypoallergenic and doesn't shed. They sent pictures and updates. And most importantly tried to keep him as cool as possible in the hot Miami heat. That goes a long way. Definitely recommend. I will be booking again.”
About: I live in one of the most beautiful cities in Miami, the Village of Biscayne Park, neighboring Miami Shores and El Portal. I have loved & cared for dogs all my life from many of my own to friends & family pets as well. From puppies to senior care I have owned Great Danes, Sharpeis, Frenchies, Italian Greyhounds, Chihuahuas & many more. I always vibe well with dogs. I have the patience & experience on how to administer all type of medications, exercise, diets & special food. I work from home, which makes me available 24/7 -including holidays- and allows me to do dog boarding and day care. Therefore, you can be assured your pet will get all my love, attention as well as lots of play time. Our pets have access to the whole inside of the house in a very comfortable environment. I also have a fence-secured backyard, where they’re free to roam around with supervision at all times. I normally will let our dogs out in the yard about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I live one block away from our city recreational park for those nice long walks. 🐾🐶🦮🐕🦺.

“Camilla and Maribela were amazing take care of our two dogs for the day! They were very sweet and attentive to the two pups, and sent us the cutest photos of the dogs having a great time. We were running late to pick up the dogs due to traffic, and they were so accomodating and understanding. We will go to them again when we need a dog sitter!”
“Aaron did an amazing job with Tucker. Tucker came back tired from playing with the other dogs all day. Aaron has a great set up and home for dog care and was super accommodating and responsive. We hope to have Tucker stay with him again in the future.”
“Anthony took great care of my pal Rowlf while I was in Miami for work. He went above and beyond with trips to the dog park and feeding him his special dinner every night. Rowlf was always excited to see him when I dropped him off. I'll definitely use Anthony again when we're back in Surfside!”

“Tetiana is such a sweetheart! She is reliable and kind and she loves my dogs! One of my dogs is disabled and she takes care of her so sweetly on every walk. My other dog can sometimes be dog selective and she is always careful when walking her. We are so lucky to have her! You will not be disappointed .”
“Valentina was amazing with Coco. She accepted my last-minute request without any hesitation. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand, but she followed all of my instructions perfectly. She was incredibly caring and patient with him. Coco is blind, so his walks are slower, and he loves to stop and smell everything along the way. Valentina gave him all the time and patience he needed, which I truly appreciated. I’m very grateful for the care she provided, and I will definitely be requesting Valentina for future walks.”
“Camila was great and we would definitely hire her again. She was personable, punctual and great with our 2 dogs. She was always on time and made the experience of being away from our dogs a lot less stressful because we knew they were well taken care of. Many thanks!”
“Audrey was super accommodating for my late notice booking and she was very patient/ communicative with my anxious girl. My building staff saw my dog around with Audrey, and they told me she looked so happy and comfortable 🙂”
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life and have over 20 years of experience caring for pets. I am a responsible, reliable, and attentive caregiver whom pet parents can truly trust. I naturally sense animals’ moods and needs, which helps me build trust quickly. I enjoy playing, walking, and providing attentive, loving care, always adapting to each pet’s personality to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy!🤗 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, unhurried walks, playtime, and consistent care. I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, which helps me build trust and a strong connection with each pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, home-like environment at all times. For home boarding, I do not use crates and provide a peaceful, comfortable atmosphere. I care for only one dog at a time, allowing me to give my full attention, supervision, and affection. I carefully follow each dog’s routine and preferences to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and truly at home.
“Excellent service—highly recommended! She took great care of my Frenchie while I was on vacation. She was very loving and caring with my dog, always on time, attentive, and kept me updated. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. 100% recommended!”
“When I asked her to come walk my large puppy at last she had no problem and even walked my puppy a little extra, fed and watered him when they got home. She has my complete respect and I will continue to user her in the future. My puppy was so happy and relaxed after his walk that he was more calm”
“Denys was wonderful to work with. He was very communicative, accommodating and helpful. He was always on time and kept us informed. He did a great job taking care of our pup, would highly recommend him for any of your needs!”
“I cannot recommend Dominga enough as a dog walker! She went above and beyond during her time with my dog, Tali. Not only did she walk Tali longer than scheduled, but she also took her to various parks that I absolutely loved. Tali always comes home happy and tired from all the fun and playing. It's clear that she enjoys her time with Dominga, and I feel so fortunate to have found such a wonderful dog walker for my baby Tali. I will continue with Dominga for dog sitting and walker. 🐕🦺 --- Feel free to adjust any part of it to better match your thoughts!”
“She was very sweet and I could tell sancho was well taken care of. Communication was thorough and clear, very easy to work with. I will definitely re book her when I am back in the area!!”
“Stella was amazing with our pups! Loved how detail oriented the daily walk reports were and how we were in constant communication regarding anything that would come up. She knew exactly what needed to be done without question and the boys loved her. Would highly recommend!!!”
“Luzmar provided an exceptional dog-walking service for Hank! From the moment they met, it was evident that Luzmar genuinely cared for Hank's well-being. Their professionalism, punctuality, and attention to detail ensured a safe and enjoyable walk every time. Hank always returned home happy and tired, which speaks volumes about the quality of their walks. I highly recommend Luzmar to any pet parent looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”
“Sarah is amazing! Our husky puppy absolutely loves her and it’s clear that she truly cares about your dog. She also makes sure to give you a run down of the walk after which I really appreciate!”
“Brianna is a very reliable, she walks my boston terrier a few times a week and he really enjoys his walks and is comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Brianna for all your pet care needs!”

“We had a great experience booking with Judy. She and her kids received Chloe with plenty of love and gave updates without having to request. During our week away, we received lots of pictures and reassurance that our baby was enjoying herself. Once back, pick up was easy, all her things were folded and bagged like when they received her. She came home happy and healthy. Our last experience with a different sitter, our dog had a big allergic reaction and ended up costing us a lot in medical bills. Glad to know that she was in good hands with Judy. Will definitely book again.”

“Tiphany was so great with my pup Louis! I could tell he was happy with her and had a great time playing with the other dogs. She also was very good about sending me updates all weekend and even was very easy going about me changing pick up and drop off times multiple times as my schedule kept changing. Will definitely be staying with her again in the future!”
