“Mariya was fantastic watching my two cats for the week I was away. My situation isn’t the easiest — my cats have to be kept separated, with one being pretty shy around new people — but Mariya handled it with patience and care. She kept me updated with regular check-ins, and it was clear she genuinely paid attention to each cat’s individual needs rather than just doing a quick in and out visit. I came home to two happy, well fed, comfortable cats and zero stress. Highly recommend Mariya to anyone with cats, especially if you’ve got a trickier multi-cat household like mine she’s clearly experienced and trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

About: I've owned dogs all my life and have always been in charge of pet sitting when family members or friends are away. I have gained much experience in handling dogs through out the years. Dogs under my care have plenty of fun, we come out about 4-5 times everyday. I prefer dogs playing with other dogs their same size unless from the same family. I have a fenced back yard, and a doggy room with divisions. Very comfy too! If you have more than 1 pup, we can fit both in one kennel (kennels are pretty spacious). I also have an extra room at an extra cost for dogs that are not accustomed to crates or closed spaces.

About: Growing up with furry friends was the best. Understanding their needs, and wants, including bathing, feeding, exercising and loving them, has been amazingly fruitful for both the animal and myself. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so there is a lot of opportunity for taking care of your little buddy! I am flexible with setting an ongoing schedule or flexible when needed. Amenities: a large fenced yard, lots of sidewalk space surrounded by dog parks and a cozy home to host your little love. I have a huge passion for being outside and going for any type of walk which I always have an affinity to do with a furry friend. I work a very flexible schedule from home most days of the week, so I’m available almost at any time you may need. Weekends are almost completely available for me as well. I have a fenced, clean yard that’s quite spacious behind our house. There is a lot of sidewalk to keep us walking, and there’s also plenty of opportunity to have fun at the dog parks just minutes walk from my home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. I can have handled big and small dogs with incredible patience. They are truly my calling. I love going out on walks and playing with them for long periods of time. I would love to meet any new furry friends 🥰 I’m currently available full time for most of the week. I do all day playdates and will even stay nights. They are welcome in my home but keep in mind I have a little sausage dog as well. I don’t have a fenced yard since I live in an apartment but I have a park really close by to play if needed. I will also brush and wipe their coats.

About: Former St. Bernard owner here that loves all dogs big and small. I wfh and have pet sat dogs all over the world. When you book me you can feel at ease knowing your dog is properly cared for. Before confirming booking I like to do meet and greets. This is to ensure both your 4 legged friend and I get along. Also I am allergic to cats so I can only accept bookings from folks without cats. I’m currently working from home so I have the perfect schedule to dog sit all day or take your dog for morning, afternoon, or evening walks. I will follow any instructions left by you on how to properly care for your dog. I want this to be a pleasant and seamless experience for both you and your dog.

About: I have experience with many different size and age dogs, since I have a big dog family at home. This comes with a lot of training as well. I’m very active, so I love to go on walks and runs with my dogs. I am a student, but my schedule is mostly flexible. I do spend some time at home and the time I’m not home, I’m in class. The weekends are free for me. I live in a pet-loving home, so there is no stress having a guest over! Dogs can be in their cage or if it is more comfortable to be without a cage that is perfectly fine as well. I also have the option of boarding or day care without my dogs.

About: Hi! my name is Luciana and I'm a dog lover. I have two dogs that I have cared for for nine years. One is a yorkie and the other a cockerpoo, In the past year I got 4 more dogs, two greyhounds, a retriever and a small mix breed. One of the greyhounds has heart problems and takes medicine so I also have experience administering oral medicine. I have also administered eye medication on the smaller dog. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society as a Dog PAL spending time with the animals. I love dogs and will treat your dogs as my own. I'm a recent graduate and just moved to New York so as I look for a full time job, I have open availability.

About: I speak both English and Spanish! I’m originally from Patagonia, where stray dogs are a common sight. I adopted two dogs of my own and learned how to understand their needs, build trust, and train them with patience and positive reinforcement. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, loved, and happy. Whether it’s boarding, house sitting, walks, or drop-in visits, I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love, care, and attention I gave my own! 🐶❤️ I’m currently available, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily manage my time around pet care. I’m also a photographer, which means I can work around different schedules—and yes, I’m a pet photographer too! 😉 I have a fenced backyard with a small tree where pets can enjoy some outdoor time safely. I also have a pet net on my door, so they can go inside or outside comfortably while staying safe. I don't use to listen music. I prefer to read or work on my computer so they won't suffer loud noises. I also have a car in case a pickup or drop-off is needed. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in my home or my client’s home.

West Flagler, Miami, FL, 33125

About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up around pets since I was five years old which has given me a lifetime of hands-on experience with animals of all ages sizes and personalities. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do - I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine , personality and needs to ensure they are comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to feeding plans, or just simply spending quality time with them. I want every pet to have a positive stress-free experience. I work full time 4 days out of the week. I have Saturday, Sunday and Monday off. I also wake up very early at 6 am and I always have a lot of time after i finish work at 6 to make sure any booked pets are well taken care of. With animals, it is all about body language. I would make sure they approach me and get to know me first before I reach out and make contact myself. Only after then I can tell if the pet is skid-dish and needs some time and encouragement or if they trust easy I would make sure to acknowledge that and show the love back. Going from there I would be able to handle them like they were my own and make sure they are well taken care of. These animals are souls that cannot express themselves with words and I make sure I can hear them and have them trust me.

About: I've cared for birds, big breed dogs, cats and even a tarantula. I am good at hiding medicine in treats or convincing a cat to swallow a pill. I've even raised and cared for baby birds and kittens. I'm currently studying and needed a flexible job. I like to move my body around but get bored at the gym and miss my walks with my great dane after she passed. A walk with a pup is more fun that the stair-master at the gym I am the friend my friends call to watch there pets. I'm really good when it comes to maintaining and up-keeping any kennels or pet rooms clean. I also like to wash bowls if their owners don't mind.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was born. My soul dog, Max, was a senior chihuahua who required around-the-clock care. Because of him, I know how to take care of pets in their golden years. I’ve aided in the rescue and rehabilitation of multiple dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes. I’m now the mom to a beautiful rescue named Magnolia who has taught me so much about, not just dogs, but myself. She is the opposite of Max (who loved to snuggle and sleep), and now I’m hiking and running with my girlfriend and Maggie nearly every day. I love dogs, I understand their language and needs, and I’d be so happy to take care of yours. (I also have extensive knowledge and care of aquatic animals). I am completely available and down to hang with your pet at a moment’s notice. I’m flexible, friendly, responsible and chill! I love being active but am also down to just hang out with your pet and make sure they’re taken care of. Living in an apartment with two cats and one dog (each having their own quirks; including one cat who cannot have any plastic around because he will eat it), I am aware of surroundings and am not negligent ever when it comes to living beings.

Marcos is awesome! My kitty loves it when he comes to check on her. He always lets me know what time he’ll be coming, and gives a very comprehensive report on what he did while in my apartment. I love how he gives my girl soo much attention and pets first since she tends to get lonely. Would highly recommend him.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Westgate

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westgate is $0 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $0 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 6,559 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westgate. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westgate. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.

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.
