We had such a wonderful experience with Sheila. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. Our dog absolutely adored her and was so happy and comfortable the entire time. We’ll definitely be rebooking in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!

Whether your pup needs a place to stay for the night, the day, or even just a simple walk, Saskia is your gal! I have booked with her many times and have had nothing but a wonderful experience each time. My pup loves her and her family and feels so comfortable staying with her. She takes excellent care of the animals she watches and you can tell she has a true love for it. Saskia consistently keeps me in the loop of how my boy is doing and provides lots of adorable pictures. I absolutely recommend Saskia to anyone in need of pet care, you will be able to have peace of mind while away from your furry friend.

About: I’ve had pets (dogs of all sizes and cats) my whole life and currently have two corgis. If there’s a dog or cat in a room, that’s where you’ll find me. I follow your instructions to a T because I believe the way you need pet care doesn’t stop when you leave for a trip. Also available for emergency drop ins and help, because you never know when life get crazy. Having pets myself, pet care it’s my routine! I focus my day around making sure pet’s needs are met, as well as try to go above and beyond to make them as happy as they make us. I follow your instructions to a T - if you need/want your pets cared for in a certain way, I’ll make sure that it’s done just as you need!

Katrina was fantastic with our pomski! She was easy to coordinate with, communicated clearly, and sent updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. Our pup clearly had a great time with her, and it showed. We’ll absolutely be using Katrina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.

We had a last minute visit with Uladzislauc, and she accepted our furbaby within an hour. She sent updates, including photos and videos throughout the visit. Uladzislau, was very friendly and pleasant, and had a great energy and aura about herself. This has by far, been the best Rover visit we've ever had. Whenever my family is in Orlando, I'll DEFINITELY be using Uladzislau again.

Charlie and his wife were great. We gave them a smaller ‘princess’ dog and a large high energy dog and they took them both in with no issue! Dogs seemed to have a good time! I would definitely board here again!

About: I've been a devoted dog owner for 4 years and grew up in a home where dogs were family. From caring for high energy 8-week-old puppies to providing the gentle, patient attention required by seniors, I have experience with every stage of a dog's life. Having lived with small, medium, and giant breeds, I'm comfortable managing all personalities and sizes in my fully fenced yard. I'm currently working full-time, but I'm able to accommodate full round-the-clock care Friday afternoons through Sunday. I can certainly accommodate drop off earlier on Friday as well, but there'll be a greater period of absence ptior to my return from work. My home is designed for safety and fun! Your dog will have 24/7 access to a fully fenced, secure backyard for play time and potty brakes. Inside, I maintain a calm, pet friendly environment where guest dogs are treated like family, meaning plenty of couch, snuggles and quiet areas for naps. I follow your specific feeding and medication schedule strictly to ensure your pups routine stays consistent while you're away.

I cannot recommend Averi C. enough! She was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Humphrey. She sent me daily updates with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He always looked so happy and well cared for, and I could tell he was having the best time. She was incredibly sweet, responsive, and clearly treated him like one of her own. I’ll definitely be booking with her again—Humphrey already misses her!

About: Hello! My name is CeCe and I would love the opportunity to care for your pet as if they are my own. I understand how important it is to trust and feel comfortable with the person you are entrusting your pet to. When my schedule was hectic, I too used Rover and really valued a great walker/pet sitter. I was the happy dog mom of my 115lbs Great Dane named Ava who was my baby. She crossed the rainbow bridge over a year ago now, and I now find myself lonely without my girl but unable to replace her. Rover has become a refuge for my heart, caring for others pets with the same love and compassion I had for mine, is truly my passion. I will treat your pet just the same as I did my Ava. I feel comfortable walking and handling large breed dogs, and have a lot of experience with dogs who have special needs, specific diets and all together just need extra care and attention. We will have walks, tons of play time and I will feed them as well as administer medicine if needed. I would be happy to come to your home for walks, check-in visits and to pet-sit for the day, I also have some availability for pet sitting in my own home . I have open availability as I am home for the entire summer and fall. We have our own house on a large plot of land with lots of space! I’m currently available 7days a week, from early morning walks/check ins, to late evenings. I’m available at all hours so your furry friend will never be left alone without someone to check on them. When it comes to caring for your pet in your personal space I have a “leave no trace” policy. Your home is an important space that should be treated with respect and with me as your Rover sitter it will always be exactly as you left it, plus one happy dog, of course.

Daisy is an older dog with anxiety and needs medications daily. It's hard to find someone who can meet her needs and behaviors. Nicole was wonderful. I think Daisy had a better time with her than with me😀. I was able to have a worry free weekend away.
