Maggie was absolutely wonderful with my cats. She was an easy choice for me - she communicated professionally, was very cheery at our meet and greet, and listened intently to every detail I shared about my cats. She cared for my cats like they were her own! I highly recommend her!

This was our first house sitting with Rover and Nathan. Nathan always responded quickly in the app. He sent pictures while we were away. He played with Sadie and took good care of our property too. Will definitely use Nathan again. Sadie was very relaxed and happy when we returned home!

About: I am currently on a pre veterinarian track at Jacksonville University. I have always loved working with animals from the zoo to vet clinics to my own animals. I have always loved to spend time with animals which is why I have decided to sign up for rover. I would love to express my passion and help others have complete comfort when leaving their furry friend. I want my clients to know they’re with someone who is passionate & experienced with all that is needed for their pets care. At home I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 bunnies, and 2 guinea pigs! Everyday I experience hands on experience with pets feeding, cleaning, walking, and best of all giving them lots of love! At my clients home I make sure I go above and beyond to care for your pets! I will always be sure to make sure I clean up any mess, give your animal lots of love and comfort, and make sure all their energy is out whether that is throwing the ball outside, walks, or runs!

I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.

Colleen took great care of our 3 dogs and the house. We had a meet and greet ahead of time and reviewed the dogs' "personalities" and how a few particulars about their care should be handled. We left all of this in print for her review as well. She sent daily pics of the dogs relaxing or playing and several texts about getting to know them. She had even won our most skeptical/slow to warm dog over before we boarded our flight to leave. Highly recommend!

About: I have my own doggies, they are both 3! I’m used too picking up the pet care when parents leave to go out of town and just take stress off their shoulders! Friends and family, cats and dog i’ve always been the one they call. I’m used to very strategic routines with my baby’s so i’m willing to do the same for yours. Doing the best in every way to make my stay with them as comfortable as possible! I currently work 5 days a week 8-2pm and i’m looking too pick up something i’m actually interested in, We all know how a high school job can last after high school when it wasn’t planned and i’m very interested in baby sitting and pet sitting for people and just giving back the love i share with my animals where it’s needed! I have a fenced in yard for both of my puppies and everyday i come home and make sure they get plenty of play time with me. They have a routine with me, I feed them every evening at 5pm and give them supplements for their health so they live the longest and happiest life !

Victoria was so accomodating! We needed a sitter last minute for our pup, and she made the time to come over for a quick meet and greet too. Victoria let herself in, took care of our girl, brought her to brewhound, then locked back up. We will definitely be using her again.

Kevin and his wife were both so kind and supportive when caring for my rescue pup, Wrigley. My dog has extreme anxiety and some behavioral issues. But, Wrigley warmed up quickly to Kevin and his wife. They were very flexible with our last-minute schedule changes and understanding of my dog’s needs. I also appreciated the daily updates and photos. I would highly recommend Kevin as a dog sitter!

Hailey was a pleasure to work with. She was able to squeeze us in at short notice after another sitter was not able to stay with our dogs. She came for a meet and greet and was great with our crew. She was on top of everything and had thoughtful questions. It was a relief to have her while we were gone. She sent updates, pictures, and took care of their special needs even when one had some GI issues while we were gone. I would highly recommend and we will be working with her again in the future!

About: My mission is to provide compassionate, dependable, and personalized care that allows pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home while giving their families complete peace of mind. Every visit is built on kindness, trust, and treating each pet like a member of the family who is viewed and nurtured with love! Currently living with a cat, and I am both, a dog and a cat person! 😇 I offer flexible availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I do my best to accommodate regular daily walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting requests based on client needs and availability. For recurring dog walking clients, I typically schedule visits within consistent time windows (such as mid-morning or early afternoon), which helps maintain your pet’s routine and reduces stress. For pet sitting and drop-in visits, I will coordinate a schedule in advance to ensure your pet receives reliable care and attention while you are away. I respond to messages promptly and will always communicate clearly if I am unavailable or if my schedule is full for a specific time period. The safety and well-being of every pet is my top priority. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes or during walks, which allows pets to remain in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine with minimal stress. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, routines, and house rules. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, triggers, and comfort level before beginning care. I ensure all doors and entry points are secure at all times, and I am extremely mindful when entering and exiting the home to prevent any chance of escape. I do not allow off-leash outdoor time unless explicitly approved by the owner and in a fully secure area. I maintain a clean environment by properly handling food areas, litter boxes, and any pet-related messes during each visit. I also monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health and will immediately communicate any concerns to the owner. Trust and respect are very important to me. I treat every home with care, privacy, and professionalism, as if it were my own.

Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!

Clover did an in-home sitting for us for a few days. We received a lot of photos, and they were very communicative. Clover was very in touch with our pups needs. They took care of our high-energy pup and made sure that she got loads of exercise through walks, beach sessions, and brewhound. Clover also took great care of our home. We will most definitely be using Clover again!

Alexis was a very gentle and friendly sitter who truly cares for animals. She prioritized my two cats comfortability and anxieties, provided lots of updates while I was on vacation, and made me feel comfortable leaving my furbabies with her. I also came back to a clean apartment. 🩷

McKenzie stayed with our cat’s and dogs while we were away and she was wonderful! She was very sweet and patient with our pup Otis, he is very shy in the beginning. By the end of her stay I could tell he was very comfortable and happy with her! She sent lots of updates and we knew they were in great hands. We felt at ease knowing they were taken care of while we were away!

Absolutely adore Hailey! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease. Hailey’s communication was fantastic, and the frequent updates and photos meant the world to me while I was away. She followed every instruction exactly as requested and went above and beyond to make sure my pets were happy, comfortable, and loved. What impressed me most was how quickly Hailey connected with and cared for my pets as if they were her own. It’s rare to find someone who is not only reliable and professional, but also genuinely invested in your pets’ well-being. I came home to happy pets and complete peace of mind. Words honestly cannot express how grateful I am for Hailey and her services-I would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter!

Kira is amazing. Our fur babies and daughters lizards were well looked after. She did us the honor of updating us with pictures of them the whole time she came back to the house from work. We had her stay at our home with them. Kira treated them so well, they seemed happy and calm when we returned and that was amazing for us as both our fur babies have separation anxiety. Yes a million times I would recommend her to look after your fur babies. We look forward to having you look after Kili and Manjaro again in the future. Thank you Kira.
