“Toby was extremely well look after. We really appreciated all of the pictures that were sent on a daily basis. We will definitely use Claudia again she was amazing!”
“Angela took care of Lucky on very short notice and I’m so grateful she was able to help. She sent pictures and updates, made sure he was fed, and got him out for walks. Communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear Lucky was in good hands. I’d absolutely book with Angela again!”
“Xena had a great time. This was her first time away from home with strangers. There was plenty for her to do and lots of company. We dropped her off happy and picked her up happy.”
“Sam took great care of Charly which made me feel confident leaving him there for 5 days. He kept me up to date daily about how Charly was doing, and sent me pictures as well.Sam has compassion for animals and puts a lot of effort to make Charly's stay a positive experience. I will definitely reach out to Sam again when I need help with Charly !”
“Honestly this was the best experience we have ever had with a rover sitter. Alain and his wife are so kind, they live in a beautiful and very clean house with a nice fenced in yard. They sent multiple videos daily showing Tater Tot being loved on. I think Alain played more ball with Tater daily than Tater is used to. Would 100% use them again in a heart beat.”
“We couldn’t have asked for better care for our two small dogs than what Randal and Karen provided. From start to finish, they treated our pups like family, giving them all the love and attention they’re used to at home. We truly appreciated the constant updates and adorable photos—they made it so much easier to be away, knowing our dogs were in such great hands. It was clear they weren’t just being watched; they were being loved. We’ll absolutely be booking with Randal and Karen again!!”
“Karen was amazing with Charlie. We couldn’t have asked for a better environment for him! We got many pic and video updates while we were gone over a 4 day span. Charlie has a new home away from home!”
“Thank you Olga for your attentiveness and your excellent care for my two dogs. Olga kept me posted with pictures and constant text about my dogs. Pick up and drop off happened with minimal effort. I can continue to talk about Olga but will close with Thanking her for the great care of my dogs and look forward to her watching my doggies again.”
“Emily, Aaron, their two boys, and their little Yorkie were super to deal with. They have a wonderful home, and yard, set up very nicely for my dog Snoogums to visit. I felt very comfortable with the arrangement. They sent me photos throughout the stay, with my dog playing, going on walks, sleeping. and playing. I felt comfort while on my trip with their communications. I would definitely repeat with them while away on my next trip. A definite A+ Dale & Snoogums”
“Teresa was wonderful! Our dog was sad to leave her. Teresa was great at communicating with us and sending pictures of our dog on a walk, playing with the other dogs and just chilling. We will definitely use Teresa again. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in the care of Teresa. She was well cared for.”
“We were so happy leaving our dogs with Arleen and Daniel. We are planning a trip in October and we wanted to try an overnight for our kids first, to see how they would do. They kept us updated with pictures, made us feel totally at ease, and even though one of our little babies had some separation anxiety, they didn’t seem bothered by it at all. They understood it was their first time away from us since we had them. We are looking forward to using them in the future. They were the perfect match for our crazy teenagers.”
“I left Luly with her for 2 days, she was very affectionate and kind with my puppy, she sent me several photos and videos about the moments with her, it was very nice to meet her and I highly recommend her, I will definitely leave Luly with Nereida next time”
“XIAO IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST. She is super kind and flexible. My dog (Ollie) is very particular and a bit high maintenance, but Xiao knew exactly knew what to do since she has her own dogs and taken care of dog all her life. Xiao has 3 dogs of her own, you can tell that she treats them well and will treat your dog like her own. Something came up during my trip and I had to reschedule my pickup time, and Xiao was more than accommodating. Highly recommended especially for worry wort mothers like me haha Thank you again 11/10 would recommend!”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 11 years old, and they have always been a very important part of my life. I truly believe pets are some of the most genuine and loving companions we have, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to follow each pet's routine, and I'm very responsible when it comes to feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the attention, affection, and care they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and loved. I currently work Monday through Thursday, so my pet sitting availability is: Friday, Saturday & Sunday: Available from 8:00 AM throughout the day, including overnight stays. During these days, I can provide dedicated care, long walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I always follow each pet's routine and your instructions carefully to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away.

I understand how important it is to leave your furry family member with someone you can trust, and I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly gated community that is very safe for dogs to enjoy walks and outdoor breaks. My home is a clean and comfortable townhouse with a fully fenced lanai, providing a secure outdoor space where pets can relax under supervision. At the moment, I don't have any dogs or cats of my own. The only pet in my home is a small semi-aquatic turtle that stays safely in its own enclosed tank. This allows me to give my full attention to the pets in my care while providing a calm environment for those who may not be comfortable around other animals.I have a welcoming home where every pet is treated with patience, affection, and respect. I always follow each owner's care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs.

“Cynthia and her family did an amazing job watching AK during our long weekend trip. Cynthia sent daily updates, videos, and photos during AK's stay in their home. Cynthia took the time to ask all important questions to ensure AK was well cared for and adjusted to her know in a comfortable manner. Cynthia was kind to adjust the stay and allow AK to stay another night due to delay in travel plans. When arriving home after picking up AK Cynthia included a sweet picture of AK during his stay in her home. We will definitely be using Cynthia and her family's services again.”

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
