“Cathy is wonderful! My dog can be a handful but she was so sweet and kind with him. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the day. We came home to a happy doggy and two happy kitties. She’s definitely going to be our go to!”



“Jennie was great! I had never left my dogs alone before and she made me feel a lot better about it. My flight ended up getting delayed and she came to check on them again. Thank you so much! I am so appreciative of everything you did.”


“Broth is amazing! She communicates about the dogs well, is responsible, and so loving. As it was Lola’s first time with another human other my husband and me, I was worried about how she’d do. Beth demonstrated patience , knowledge about dog behavior and care. At the end of the stay, Lola allowed Beth to hold her! I highly recommend her!”


About: I’ve had 6 dogs, 2 cats, and grew up on farm my entire life. I’ve cared for cows and pigs as well. My dogs have been as big as an American pit bull to as small as a Yorkie. I am working online but can’t help care for dogs/cats at anytime. I am able to drive up to 20 minutes and do what needs to be done whether it is pet sitting or walking. I love to be outside so this Florida heat is not too much for me. We love our dogs and cat and keep them very comfortable with their needs coming first. We are animal people that will listen to our clients and care for their animals to their specific needs and wants.

“Hannah was an amazing sitter! She sent me updates and photos throughout her visit. Barkley and Ada were in great hands and I would definitely rebook. Thank you so much Hannah ? ? !”

“We felt very comfortable leaving our babies behind with Penny! Now we can travel without worries and know that our kitties will be taken care of. She was very communicative and thorough. We will be using her again :)”

I work part-time, so I can take your dog out during the morning shift or lunch breaks, ensuring they get the attention they deserve while you’re at work. My home is pet-friendly with a secure, fenced yard where dogs can roam freely and safely. I provide the same care and attention when walking dogs in their own home, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved in a familiar environment.

About: I have cared for many pets my whole life! I’ve taken in feral litters of cats and helped raise them until they were able to be adopted, I have cats, and help with the care of 4 dogs of varying sizes. I have had cats and all types of dogs growing up! I love making sure furry family feels loved, and gets taken care of. I am just starting out, however Rover is my full time job. I use this platform so I can still care for my little brother on the weekends. Some people have help with Rover, but I am working solo so please be patient with me. I have a fenced in portion of the yard just for our dogs to run around as they please, they have set meal times and have constant access to love and snuggles! My cats also get all the love and playtime they want.

“Morgan is a person I highly recommend for any type of care: pet sitting, house sitting or elder care. My Winston has had separation anxiety in the past but with Morgan he was happy and calm! Thank you Morgan!”


About: I currently own 2 dogs 1 shepherd, 1 mixed. I love all sizes and breeds, dogs are truly a blessing and we don't deserve them!! I am retired and have no real responsibilities, I am flexible and willing to help out as much as I can. I usually am available! I will come to your house, let your dogs out, play with them, feed and water them, if you are close to a dog park we could go there too!

About: Hey! I have grown up with dogs, cats, and livestock and have experience as a vet tech. I would love the opportunity to care for your babies! I work from home October through April so have plenty of time to drop in to care for your animals. I also enjoy walking so would love to have you baby tag along for that. Currently have three dogs that go on two walks a day and have outside play time. I would treat your fur baby like it was my own, and of course send you plenty of pictures/videos.

“Claudia did a great job taking care of my three little dogs for nine days. This was not an easy task, two are elderly, each has his own issues. Claudia has an infectious sweetness that dogs can certainly sense. I will definitely use her when I need to rely on a loving pet sitter!”


About: I have always had a love for animals. Communication is most important while parents are away from your pets. I would love to work with you on sticking to a routine that works. I love sticking with a routine and I know your pets do too! I would love to work with you and your pets in the best way I can. Trust and communication come first. Routine is most important when it comes to someone taking care of your babies! I will love your pets as my own and take care of their needs.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I am currently a full-time student-athlete at Florida Atlantic university but I am home for the summer, I can dog sit/walk 2x in the week and over the weekend. My schedule will be right fit for this job. Proper pet care also includes exercising your pet. Exercise is an important part of your pet’s mental, as well as physical, health. If you spend any time on social media, you know that all kinds of animals like to play such as this ball-playing turtle, this dog playing fetch by himself or this bird playing with a red cup. Pets also benefit from socialization, whether that’s regular interaction with you, having guests come over, or trips outside of the house. Expand their horizons and improve their people skills while helping them to safely experience new things!

About: My mom raised basset hounds and I certainly have a fondness for the breed but I love most four legged babies. My home is quiet and calm so older pets can be reassured of a relaxing experience. I enjoy leash walking and my neighborhood is quiet so walks won't be overstimulating or scary. I work from home but do work Saturdays from 10-5 at a local boutique as well. Most of my boarders are okay with being left alone for that length of time. I can easily crate your pet if that is what they are used to. Detailed instructions are always welcomed in regard to feeding, walking and bathroom breaks for your pet.

About: I've have two dogs of my own, one is a blue heeler/ rottweiler named Tak and the other is a Vizla whos name is Haruko. Which means sunlight child in Japanese. He has the more golden glowing eyes! I also have been around dogs most of my life, my partners mom got us into volunteering at The Bully Project and we go and walk the dogs just because.My partners mom use to work there too. I also grew up with close to around 20-30 cats at once when I was a little girl, I was always so use to being surrounded by them in my yard and hanging out with them as much as I possibly could. Ive always been real sensitive to animals and their feelings, it's literally a sixth sense. I was currently managing and running my own professional wedding photography business but have slowed down drastically to focus on the little things. Im interested in dog/cat sitting and getting into learning how to grow a garden. Im wanting to take a huge break from social media and work more in the physical world. I also have two dogs of my own so its always been in my routine to care my my pets and take care of them. I have a huge open availability this whole year. I don't recommend having them stay at my own home just because of how high energy my Vizsla is. I do however recommend I come to your home to watch them. I promise to make sure your pets are comfortable with me there, make sure they go outside as frequently as needed to go to the bathroom, take medication, have cuddles, and watch for all the little things. Even keep the active on commands/tricks if they use any, that way they are consistently engaged. Im always outside the entire time with my dogs even though we have a fenced in yard because I want to make sure they don't dig under the fence and escape and that they are truly looked after in the best possible way.

During that time, they ensured she got to enjoy all her favorite activities, including lots of walks and playing ball. Lexi came home happy and obviously well-cared for.

“I've known Cait for 6 or 7 years now, and nobody I know cares more for their pets. Everyone loves and cares for their pets, but she has always went above and beyond providing extra time, toys, and treats for all her furry friends. Dogs and cats love her because she is just an animal person and gets along with them all. She is definitely someone I would lean on to care for my fur baby if I need it.”

She is so loving and kind and fun with dogs (and people too!). She is amazing and I never hesitate to have her take care of Oreo. She is amazing! Highly recommend!”


Adrianna M.
“I can’t recommend Adrianna enough as a dog sitter! They are truly exceptional in every way. From the moment I met them, I could tell they genuinely love and understand dogs. My pup, who is usually shy around new people, warmed up to Adrianna instantly, which speaks volumes about their kind and calming demeanor. During the time they cared for my dog, Adrianna, went above and beyond to ensure my furry friend felt comfortable and loved. They provided regular updates, including photos and little anecdotes, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my dog was not only well taken care of but also genuinely happy. Adrianna, is incredibly responsible, punctual, and attentive to every detail. They followed all of my care instructions perfectly and even added thoughtful touches, like bringing my dog their favorite treats and spending extra time on walks. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, Adrianna, is the perfect choice. I can’t imagine leaving my dog with anyone else now. Thank you, Adrianna, for your amazing care and for loving my pup as much as I do!”
