“Anna is great with my two Labs. That are well cared for and happy to have her return. She provides timely updates and photos to keep us in the loop.”

About: I’ve grown up around pets since birth! Mostly cats and dogs (big and small); but also bunnies, lizards, and even an African gray parrot! I have a very flexible work schedule, so I can be there whenever your fluffy family member needs me. I believe piece of mind is a top priority, when choosing someone to take care of your pet, so that is why I send photo and text updates at every visit! I am currently working a job with flexible hours, so I can make myself available anytime for your pet! Apart from occasional trips, I am a full-time Naples resident who is available for recurring visits. I am a young person with lots of energy for short runs, long walks or high-energy play sessions! I also enjoy engaging with lower energy pets through cuddles, slow walks, or simply sitting outside together enjoying the breeze.

“Payton is the best! Super reliable. I never have to worry about Tulsa in her care. She sends the best pictures and reports. Love reading about Tulsas visit with her while I’m at work. Thanks, Payton!!”

About: I’m comfortable with cats & dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My guy is a wonderful handful so I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—not just feeding them and letting them out..but giving them attention, playtime, walks, and plenty of love. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Just like I would do for my own I am currently working 9–6 Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday, so Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday are the days I have the most flexibility for you and your furry ones. These are the days I can dedicate the most time and attention to your pets. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule visits, walks, and drop-ins around their individual needs. I work until 6pm so night time can be available if needed. I have a dog named BlackJack who is blast and high energy, so I understand how important it is to know that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and other safety details, and I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and videos (if you would like) so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing!

About: I’ve worked with dogs for as long as I can remember. I worked as a dog grooming assistant for a few years and I also have 6 years of training under my belt. I’ve worked with a range of canines with a multitude of different needs, from rigorous training for service dogs to socialization for double digit litters. I personally have numerous animals, so pet care has been part of my daily routine for quite some time now. I am very flexible and can easily work alongside you and your dogs daily needs! I am very respectful of the home you and your fur baby reside in, and will opt to clean up any messes your pet may make, and ensure their needs are handled to the same standard you hold!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I can remember. My family has had dogs since I was a kid. I have always been around animals. If I could own a farm I totally would. I used to work at a private club in Key Largo and I took care of a lot of our members pets while they were gone on vacation. I have recently decided to work for Rover full time. I will be able to give your pets all the attention they need. A lot of time for walks, play and cuddle time. I have an extra bedroom available if your dog needs to be alone and not be bothered by my very friendly dog. My dog is very friendly and loves all other animals.

“Madison was so good with Jax, and he really enjoyed her! I would definitely recommend Madison if you need a pet sitter. She sent lots of photos videos, and updated me on how he was. She knows what she’s doing, and I will trust my pup Jax with her again in the future!”

“Karen B was terrific,,,, my labs loved her. Ali can be alittle bit of a stinker when she doesn’t know the person but Karen overcame that quickly by getting down on the floor and chatting with Ali. She even got a kiss by the end of the weekend. 💕🐾 Karen was great about providing updates and even pics while I was away. I will for sure use Karen B again. Thanks!”

About: As someone who has two dogs myself, I know how important it is to have a trust worthy person interacting with my pets. I always grew up with at least one dog or cat in my household so I have a lot of experience interacting with dogs. I’ve also spent my time volunteering with an organization that trains future assistant dogs before relocating from St Louis. I work remotely full-time so I have a lot of flexibility within the week to do check-ins in your home. I have no issues with keeping weekends open for longer check-ins as well. For check-ins, I’m very open to what your needs are for your pet. I have no issues taking your dog for a walk, regardless of their on leash training. I have experience with crating dogs as well if needed.

“Joana was very responsive and professional.”

“Elizabeth is amazing!! She has been walking my dog for a week, helping me out on my longer work days. She already treats my dog (and cat when she makes an appearance!) as if she was her own. She provides great pictures and updates from their short time together. I am grateful to have found her. Maple is already excited for their next adventure!”

About: Hi! I am Sara, and I just moved back to Naples after being out in the Southwest for the past few years. Originally from upstate NY, I lived in NYC for over 13 years, then I moved out to San Diego, then down to Naples, then out to Phoenix….and finally decided to come back to Florida to settle. However, I travel a lot as well, so I am able to provide services in other cities depending on my travel schedule. Growing up, I had a rabbit and a mini dachshund as pets. Currently, I am the proud mom of four adorable guinea pigs and 3 dogs (2 Corgis and an Aussie shepherd). My experience with animals is extensive. I began taking care of dogs and cats at a young age and by middle school I had a successful neighborhood pet-sitting service. Additionally, I attended farm camp (yes, that exists haha) from age 6-11, and at 13 years old, I started working at the same farm (as farm staff and as a counselor for the kids' day and overnight camp programs). The farm was primarily a dairy farm, home to a herd of Jersey, Guernsey, and Holstein cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, guinea hens, ducks, and of course....plenty of dogs and cats. I worked there over 7 years and loved every minute of it. The responsibility and work-ethic that comes from animal husbandry is priceless - not only do I greatly value manual labor, but I also appreciate the dedication and daily grind that is intrinsic to farming and to ensuring that dependent animals' basic needs are met. Despite having lived in NYC, I still manage to spend time on farms and I travel extensively throughout the U.S., visiting and helping many friends/family that have different animals. Most recently, I have worked on a cattle ranch in Montana and goat dairy in Missouri, which were both a wonderful experiences. Since I have a full household of pets (and an human child) I am unfortunately unable to host any pets in my home. However, it is quite easy for me to get to places around the area, so I am happy to come to your home and take care of your pets. Sometimes, this is even better because then the animal(s) get to stay in the comfort of their home and don't experience the stress of a new environment, coupled with the absence of their owner! I am a very active person - so I look forward taking dogs out for long walks and playing with them! I prefer that we schedule services a week in advance (as specified), but I know that emergencies happen and sometimes you need somebody last minute. I am happy to occasionally provide last-minute services, especially since I have a somewhat flexible work schedule and my mode of transportation is quick! Most importantly, I have a deep respect and love for all animals. I look forward to meeting your creatures and you can rest assured that they will be in fabulous hands! I work full time but my hours are flexible. Additionally, I travel a lot, so I will update my location if I plan to be in a certain place for more than 5 days. Please do not hesitate to reach out with a booking inquiry. I always do my best to accommodate. The guinea pigs are in a nice hutch. The dogs stay in the kitchen when I am not home and they sleep inside the house.

“My frenchie JP loves Cory! He’s knowledgeable of frenchies, which is hard to find here. Highly recommend and will be using Cory again!”

“Amber has been so wonderful with our new husky! She’s communicative and prompt. She always provides great updates and feedback. She’s been a life saver for our family.”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life growing up! From childhood family pups to my cute yorkie terrier Gio, I’ve always been around to either care for another family member’s dog, care for close friends’ dogs as well, to making sure Gio’s tail is always wagging. From having smaller pups in our family home, to even helping walk the neighbors’ Great Dane growing up, dogs have always been a part of my life, and will continue being so! I am eager to work with some of the best clients ever and making sure all dogs I have the privilege of caring for continue staying happy and healthy. I’m currently a full-time student at Florida Gulf Coast University and live in on-campus housing. Tuesdays through Thursdays are my busiest days of the week. However, I will be sure to routinely update my Rover calendar in my profile! Additionally, with advanced notice, I am flexible with days/times of the week :) Due to living in on-campus housing, I am unfortunately unable to bring your pets into my home. Additionally, I would not want pets in general to be in a dorm environment! The best way for me to care for your fur friends would be setting up a day and time you’d like me to care for your pet in your lovely home. From there, we can coordinate any other potential logistics! I am more than happy to work with you in finding the best/soonest date to find care for your pets- advanced notice is highly preferred, but not necessary!

“Jana was/is wonderful! Great communication, prompt, easy to get along with and Max loved her! Highly recommended.”

About: I love all pets and can care for them as you request. They will have free range of the fenced in yard and house. I will text daily photos/videos of your dog to ease any stress of leaving your companion at home. **I pet sit because I WANT to not because I HAVE to. I only allow one other dog at a time in the home. This allows me to give the your pet more attention than with dealing with several dogs at a time.** Smoke free home. I am retired and since moving to our 2.5 acre property I thought there is no better way to host pets. I am home most of the time. If I go out it is just for a quick errand. I have a fully fenced in yard with an electric gate. Always closed for 24 hour protection. I have a very friendly golden retriever for your pets company.

About: I have taken care of many types of dogs and been around dogs and cats my entire life, and I have 2 dogs. My neighbors and family members often entrust me to watch their dogs while they are gone, and I also have experience with house/dog sitting overnight. I also used to nanny for a family when they got a new puppy and she was also part of my responsibilities. I am working part time right now so I can easily fit in walks at different times of days! I am also available on different days and have a flexible schedule. At home, I take care of my golden doodle and walk her everyday! For my clients, I make sure to give each animal plenty of attention and care with walks, pets, and making sure they have water (and food if applicable).

“Took very good care of my dogs”

About: Spanish/English I am a supply chain specialist and a dedicated pet lover with two years of experience caring for dogs of various species, breeds, and sizes. I'm serious about my jobs and responsibilities and about having a clean, safe, and smoke-free environment for my pets. I enjoy going to the gym I know how to handle and restrain dogs and cats safely and comfortably. I work remotely from home, so I am flexible and adaptable to changing schedules, situations, and environments. I work in supply chain managing the imports and exports of products thus I have availability mainly in the mornings and weekends. As I work every day in front of the laptop I go to the gym in the mornings and walk around the parks and nature. I live in a large house in a safe and quiet area near summerlin with a patio and two rooms, one of which is my office. I can easily take your dog for walks or play games with your cats to keep them active and entertained. Whether caring for pets in my home, I ensure they are in a secure environment, away from hazardous substances. I follow specific care instructions like feeding schedules, exercise routines, and medical needs to ensure they are well cared for.
