“Shawnee is wonderful! Knowing she was taking care of our cat while we were away gave us peace of mind and seeing her updates and photos made our trip so much smoother. We will absolutely be booking Shawnee again in the future (and recommending her to our pet-parent friends)!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! We booked her very last minute and she was so communicative, punctual, and did great with our 10 month old puppy that’s full of energy. She sent a photo and kept us updated the whole time. Will definitely be utilizing her services again.”
“This was our first time leaving our cats and we couldn't have chosen anyone better to care for them! Sheryl Lynn was terrific and made all of our furbabies comfortable while we were gone. The daily updates and photos gave us great comfort while we were away.”
“Bonnie was fantastic. She took great care of our cat, Finn. Daily updates and pictures were very much appreciated. Kind and caring, I would definitely recommend Bonnie for pet care”
“Second time using Aubrey and another excellent experience. Able to leave my two fur babies in her care without having to worry at all. She is really amazing with animals; our two cats, who really don’t like anyone, warmed up to her right away! I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“April was the MOST AMAZING pup sitter ever! She went 1,000% above and beyond to watch our boy Harper on 2 different days while we were camping at Camp Margaritaville in Auburndale, FL! Harper absolutely loved her from the moment he met her (And so did we! We almost wanted to stay and hang out with her, she was so friendly and wonderful!) I HIGHLY recommend her for any pet sitting. She truly cares and does the best job, sends update pics and is super prompt, efficient, trustworthy, friendly and a true professional. We particularly loved that she came to our campsite to stay in our RV with our pup while we enjoyed the amenities with our family. She made camping worry free. Definitely hire April wherever you are, but especially if camping as she truly made our vacation worry free! Thank you, April! You're a true gift and we so appreciate you!”
“Maryana was fantastic. Not only did she follow instructions provided for our cats, but she was attentive and not afraid to go above and beyond. This included her bringing new treats for the cats to try and letting us know if anything out of the norm occurred. We will 100% be booking her again!”
“Shannon was amazing!! She was very attentive to my big puppies and I can tell she cared for them. She went above and beyond what was expected from me. Definitely someone to choose to watch your babies.”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Ashley drop in to watch my dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and knows how to handle them with care and expertise. My dogs took to her immediately, which is a great sign since they can be a bit picky with new people. Ashley was attentive to their needs, making sure they were fed, walked, and given plenty of playtime and affection. She also kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Ashley’s professionalism and warm personality made the whole experience seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future.”
About: I have loved pets since I was very young. I used to take care of my brother's dog and my friends. Whenever I could, I would visit my friends to be with their dogs. I am a teacher, so I have a lot of patience with hyper pets! I am currently a teacher, so I can work Mon-Fri after 4 and on the weekends any time. During the summer and holidays, I am more flexible. I make sure that if the dog or cat needs to go out to potty, I take them out. I also walk the dogs/cats and play with them as I keep them company. I try to make sure they are safe and happy! I am not allergic to any pets.
“Taylor exceeded my expectations while she came and took such great care of my two cats, Leo and Luna! I was very appreciative of the pictures she sent daily and looked forward to receiving them. That’s a very nice touch! Book Taylor without any hesitation as you won’t regret it, highly recommend! A+++”

I'm not just a caregiver; I'm a devoted listener, ready to accommodate your pet's preferences and your concerns. Trust me to provide the utmost care, flexibility, and a nurturing environment for your beloved pets. The ability to set my own work schedule provides a tailored approach to caring for pets. With the flexibility to adjust my hours, I can meet their specific needs, including feeding, walks, and playtime. Breaks throughout the day allow for regular check-ins, addressing any emergencies promptly. This personalized care not only reduces stress for pets but also eliminates the need for external pet services.

In caring for pets, I extend my services both within my own home and at clients' residences, ensuring a comprehensive and attentive approach. At my home, I provide a range of services such as bathing, meticulous medication distribution, and regular walks tailored to the specific needs of each pet. I create a comfortable and loving environment, prioritizing their well-being. Additionally, when caring for pets in clients' homes, I extend the same level of dedication. This includes administering medications with precision, offering bathing services for hygiene, and taking dogs for invigorating walks. The goal is to mirror the care and routine they are accustomed to, whether in their familiar home environment or within my own space, ensuring a seamless and positive experience for both the pets and their owners.
About: I would love the opportunity to meet with you and your fur babies to see if we would be a good fit.I love dogs and cats so much,my life would not be complete without them. I have been in a position that I had to leave my babies at home all day by their self and felt so guilty. So I understand how comforting it is to know,someone can come in and take care of them, and give them the love that they deserve when you cannot. I am very knowledgeable about dogs and their specific needs based on what their particular breed requires. I would provide the best care possible based on their needs and your wants. I have not met a dog that that I didn't love! I love cats too!I have had several dogs over the years that I successfully trained to be well behaved and have been able to correct unwanted behaviors. Many have been rescues.I have helped friends and family anytime they have needed me to over the years. Anything I can do to make your life easier is what I want to do for you.😊 I am retired and would love to take of you best friends at your home. I have to dogs and a cat as well as twin grand babies at my home so I think it's best I sit for you in your home. I can feed, walk and play with your baby or babies. I can bath them and brush them.I will keep them safe at all times.I am good at doing basic training and teaching dogs tricks,(that is most dogs)😊 I will find out about what they like and what they don't like. Their needs depending on their breed, age and health.Depending on your circumstances we will discuss your wishes and I will adhere to them as well as always keep an eye on them, keep them on a leash when outside. Make sure they have everything they need and lots of loving on them if they like to be loved on. I will play with them and make sure to let them outside as often as they need.
“Kristina is amazing! We know Katie is well taken care of while we are away! Kristina goes above and beyond to ensure that our sweet dog is happy! I would recommend Kristina to anyone!”
About: I'm a dedicated stay-at-home dog mom who loves caring for pups of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I am trained in pet first aid and CPR so your furry family member will always be in safe hands. Whether it's belly rubs, walks or cuddle time, I treat every dog like I would my own. I am currently a stay at home dog mom so my schedule is pretty flexible. A natural part of my daily routine revolves around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime and lots of cuddles. I will care for pets in my home as if they were my own! They will enjoy a safe environment with regular potty breaks, walks and play time.
About: I am almost done with my CVA, which has given me hands on experience with animal care and a strong understanding of animal behavior, basic health needs, and how to recognize when a pet may be stressed, uncomfortable, or need extra attention. I’m very attentive to routines like feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific care instructions you have for your pet. I also volunteered at a horse rescue for 6 years, which has helped me become even more patient and comfortable working with animals that all have different personalities and needs. Whether your pet is a playful puppy who needs consistency and extra energy or an older pet who needs a gentler approach, I’m confident in providing calm, dependable care and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I currently attend CVA school and as of right now im doing the externship part, I will be done early October! Outside of school, I’m available the rest of the day and can realistically spend most, if not all, of my time with your pet. I also care for my own animals every day, including my dogs, cat, and reptiles—a snake, bearded dragon, turtle, and leopard gecko—so feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, cleaning cages, and keeping their spaces clean are all part of my normal routine. My entire day is basically centered around animals between school and caring for my own pets, so pet sitting fits very naturally into my life. I care for pets with a lot of attention, and fun! I usually feed my pets at the same time every day and follow a schedule, but I keep it flexible so it works for each pet’s needs. I give dry food and simple medications like NexGard but, I also have experience handling special diets and other medications. Playtime happens whenever pets seem bored or want to go outside. I have lots of toys, treats, and fun activities inside, and I enjoy running with dogs outside or taking them on car rides. I also do some basic training for fun, though I’m not a professional trainer. I keep spaces clean and comfortable, cages and tanks are cleaned regularly, puppy pads are replaced, and everything is wiped down with disinfectant as needed. Pets have their own quiet areas, toys, and treats to feel calm and safe. I’m very observant of their behavior, so I can notice when something feels off. Pets aren’t left alone for long, except when I’m at school for a few hours. I’m used to managing multiple pets at once by keeping a close eye on everyone and giving each animal their own space when needed. My home is very clean, and I constantly sweep, mop, and vacuum. Overall, I make sure pets are happy, safe, and comfortable, and I treat them as part of my family giving lots of love, attention, and care every day.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Auburndale
We have had Sheryl watch our pups multiple times now, and every time she is so wonderful! Great communication, great check-ins and detailed notes and plenty of sweet pics. We feel so lucky to have her and always have peace about leaving our puppies and home in her care.
Shawnee is incredible - she really gives us full peace of mind that our cat will be taken care of while we're gone, and she stays in constant communication, giving thorough updates and sending us plenty of photos! We appreciate her flexibility and all of the ways she goes above and beyond what you'd expect from a pet sitter, and we can't thank her enough!
What a great experience with Rover !! 😍 Aubrey is the Best ! Friendly professional and very accountable ❤️She came to our home for a meet and greet and I immediately knew our “Jack” was in good and loving care in our absence! Communication could not have been better ! Five stars !! Will definitely use her and Rover again !
We had a great experience with our sitter! She took wonderful care of our dog, Remi, and kept us updated throughout each visit. It was clear she made an effort to make him feel comfortable and gave him attention, not just the basics. Remi can be a bit particular, but he seemed happy and relaxed after each visit, which says a lot! The communication was great, and I appreciated how easy everything felt, on time, professional, and caring. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and trustworthy to care for their pup. Thanks again for taking such good care of Remi!

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.

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 .

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.
