“Bonnie looked after my cat while I was in vacation. She did an incredible job and my cat really enjoyed her company. Bonnie is easy to communicate with and the fact that she has cats of her own made me feel comfortable that she knew how to approach and care for my cat. She updated me throughout the stay on how my kitty was doing which reassured me I had the best sitter possible. Highly recommend!!”


“Matt and Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of my cats. It was so great getting pictures everyday and they took so many great ones! It’s nice not having to worry that your pets are fed and taken care of. I’d definitely ask for them again!”


“Kylee is amazing!! Works around whatever scheduling is necessary, very accommodating and sent daily update pictures! Loved being able to honeymoon while knowing my little kitty was being well taken care of. Tom and I thank you Kylee!”


“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”


About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family — giving them the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I have experience with a wide range of animals, from energetic puppies who need training and playtime, to senior pets who require gentle handling, medication, and extra patience. I’m also attentive to each pet’s unique routine, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Pet care is naturally built into my day — I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give animals the time and attention they need. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening feedings, I make sure pets stay on their usual routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. n my home, pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable space where they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I stick closely to their regular feeding and exercise schedule, and I always provide fresh water, cozy resting areas, and supervised outdoor time.

“If you need pet care, I highly recommend Emely! She takes her job seriously and really will care for your pets like they are her own. I trust her completely in my home and with my babies. (Thank you, Emely!!)”


About: I’ve always had a big heart for dogs. Caring for them comes naturally to me as I truly love being around them, giving them attention, love, and companionship. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m very flexible and love spending time with dogs. I can adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick to their usual routines, give them lots of attention, and keep their environment clean and calm. Playtime, walks, and cuddle time are always included!

About: Life-long animal lover and future vet, dedicated to providing expert care and comfort for your furry babies. This will also be my 3rd year taking veterinary classes! I’m currently on summer break so I have plenty of free time on my hands and I’d still be doing this when school starts back up. I have a fenced in backyard and I have 2 Yorkies that love meeting other dogs and cats. I have one cat that is also very friendly.

About: Hi everyone! I have grown up with both cats and dogs my entire life. In fact, at my childhood home, we had seven cats at one time- even though my dad is allergic! Since moving to Winter Haven, I have missed having a furry friend around and well, that’s why I am on Rover! I currently work full time but not a traditional 9-5 because I am a pilot- which means I am only not home when I am flying! If I am unable to fulfill a request because of my travel schedule, I will be sure to let you know I am unavailable. At my home, I do not have a fenced in yard but it is a quiet neighborhood away from busy roads. My roommates currently have one dog and one cat but if your pet doesn’t get along with other animals, I can keep them separate. Just let me know!

About: I volunteered for 2 1/2 years at a local pet shelter and have been pet sitting for 10 years now! It doesn’t even feel like a job to me!! Sadly, my dog (boxer) has crossed the rainbow bridge but I have grown up around pitbulls, Rottweilers, mastiffs, Chinese cresteds and yorkies! I also love any opportunity I can to take care of a feline! I would love the opportunity to care for your animal and help keep him or her as happy as can be! I work a full time job, Monday-Friday so my availability is mainly evenings and weekends. I am available for overnight stays as long as you are okay with me going to work during the week! I am in office 3 days and can work from the house 2 days a week. I follow all house rules and make sure the pet gets the same love and attention they do on a daily basis! The priority is making sure they are happy and comfortable!

About: I grew up with a best friend who loved animals and had everything from prairie dogs to parrots. I love all animals and am very experienced with exotics as well. I have a 4 year old Chiweenie, Fitzgerald, who is my buddy. I want to be able to provide care for your pets like I get to for Fitzy. I will be sure to follow any directions left to keep your pets in the same habits. I also am open to creating a schedule for your pet.

“This was a last minute request (the night before) and Kayla was a real lifesaver! I’m so thankful that she was able to stop in and take such good care of my pup for me this afternoon. I’m also super impressed with how professional and thorough she is! She took pictures and videos of Henry and even cleaned up the mess he had made from tearing the tape off the back of my kitchen rug while I was gone. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone needing a good caregiver for his or her dog.”

I"ll work with you to address any needs you may have. I have a large, fenced in yard for boarding your pets, and a screened in pool for enjoyment and exercise. If care is to be provided in your home, I will provide tailored care that honors your wishes. Whether in my home or yours, I'll make sure your pets are safe and comfortable in your absence.

Nevaeh H.
“I can’t say enough good things about Nevaeh ! I had to leave town unexpectedly for a long weekend, and she stepped right in to care for my three dogs — Max, Daisy, and Cooper. She made sure they stuck to their regular feeding schedule, took them on daily walks, and even sent me pictures and little updates so I knew they were happy and well. Max can be a bit shy with new people, but he warmed up to her right away. Daisy needs her medication twice a day, and she handled that with no problem. Cooper is our wild one, but she kept him entertained with fetch and tug-of-war until he was ready to nap. When I came home, the dogs were relaxed, tails wagging, and the house was just as I left it. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in loving, capable hands. I will definitely be booking her again!”
