About: I have taken care of both medium/small dogs and cats for years. I have dogsat the past 7 years and have catsat on Rover the past 2 years. I've also fostered kittens in the past so I can care for younger pets too! Right now in my life I just have a lot of free time to come by and check in on your pets, providing feedings, walks, and any other needs! I am also now providing house sitting jobs if your pets need a longer stay! I will make sure to come by depending on as many times a day you need me. Most likely two to three times per day. At least twice a day I will come by to feed the pets and give them fresh water. And multiple times I can come by to walk them or play with them and provide other care they may need.
“Thank you Nicole for looking after Sheba and Suki, I hope they behaved themselves, You looked after them so well, I could enjoy my break away without worrying about them,.and thank you for laundering the sheets and towels, that was above and beyond. I will not hesitate to book you again in the future.”
“This was the first time we have used a service like this. We were a bit nervous as our pets are our babies. But Aubrey was wonderful and really put us at ease. We were gone for 9 days and she took great care of our pets (dog and cat). They were well fed, and were very happy when we got home. I would highly recommend Aubrey and will definitely use her again the next time we take a trip!”
“This was our first booking with Jordan and she was great! She stayed at our house for 5 days with the dogs. Was on time and was with the dogs the majority of the time we were gone. Sent photo updates as well. House was nice and in order when we returned. Would recommend.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of genuine love for animals and hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I create a calm, trusting environment to help them feel safe and relaxed in your absence. I work part time at City Wine & Cigar, so I have to work around that schedule. I normally work 4pm to close about three to four nights a week but I am willing to work things out if need be. Anything booked in advance I don't mind taking off to ensure I can be there for you. When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I offer a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play, rest, and feel at ease. I maintain your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications. Whether it’s cozy cuddle sessions or active play, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space respectfully and your pet with the same affection and structure they’re used to. I keep their routine consistent, provide companionship, and ensure they feel safe and secure while you’re away. I also offer regular updates with photos and notes, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Please note I offer all services.
About: I’m not just here to feed and walk your pets — I’m here to love them like you do. With years of experience and a heart full of patience, I focus on creating a calm, happy environment for every fur friend in my care. I have just one animal right now but have had plenty of pets in my younger years that have made me want even more going forward with my growing fur babies! I work a full time job Monday’s through Thursday’s, but I am available all through the weekend! I am here to fit to your schedule as well as your pets. My dog Aurora’s morning starts with me giving her a scheduled meal and then I always take my fur baby on a walk even though she’s a small dog she’s active and loves the time we bond at those times. Love to bathe her and groom her with the brush because she sheds a lot. She’s very pampered to due her being my only pet as of right now, but in the future we can’t wait to adopt another furry friend for her to add to our family!
“This is our second time using Kacie, but the first time for house sitting. Once again, she did a wonderful job and was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and took good care of everything.”

About: I’ve been helping take care of people’s pets for as long as I can remember. I love spending time with animals and giving them the care they need amidst your busy schedule. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I love playing fetch, dog walking, and going to dog parks. I also love helping cats exercise their energy through play. My schedule is fairly open as I am only working part time right now. I’m free all day Thursday-Sunday and in the mornings and evenings Monday-Wednesday. If you need a different time, just let me know and I’m sure we can work something out :) I like to leave things better than I found them. If you are trusting me with your pet and your space, I want to do my best to relieve any extra stress you have around pet care by keeping them clean and happy.
About: I have worked as a pet sitter for 3 years taking care of various types of animals in people's homes before moving to Florida. I walked, fed, cleaned and documented everything that was done. We provided very personal service to our clients. I am flexible and available anytime. When not pet sitting I am taking care of our animals on our small farm, this allows me to keep a very open schedule. I treat everyone's home with absolute respect and courtesy. I am very comfortable with alarm and garage codes and document everything I do with your pet. I am willing to take short videos with the time spent with your pet to ensure you see their happiness.
About: I’ve worked alongside animals as long as I can remember. I grew up with a farm full of rescued horses, pigs, chickens, dogs, rabbits and cats. I have experience as a veterinary assistant and kennel worker along with a bachelors degree in wildlife conservation. Currently I have 2 dogs, a fostered pitty mix named Colt and a street dog from Puerto Rico named Pee Wee. I love animals of all sort and am confident in my ability to provide all the love and support your fur baby needs upon your absence. I communicate quickly and effectively and will ensure you have peace of mind at all times. Currently I am working towards getting into a masters program along with working part time as a veterinary assistant. My dogs are my top priority and being able to have a flexible schedule for them is one of the many reasons I decided to quit my full time job and pursue this instead. I cannot do night stays but am willing to come multiple times a day if needed. I have farm sat and dog sat for multiple weeks at a time. I am flexible and willing to work with you to meet your needs. I have a fenced in yard with fresh access to water at all times. During the day my dogs spend their time both inside and out and are crated at night and when gone for long hours. I also have a vehicle capable of safely transporting your pup when needed. I can easily crate, care and enrich your pets, along with providing them with all the love they deserve.
About: I've been taking care of pets for almost 13 years. My friends and clients tease me that I'm dog whisper. I have a client who her black lab has her corks and weekly dates, training and patience we are inseparable. I truly love to be around dogs, and they sense that where they love to be around me as well. I work full time downtown Deland; my current hours are 9am-5:30pm Monday-Friday. I can offer lunch time let outs depending on my schedule. More information can be requested. I prefer to watch animals in their own home as it helps them with the change. I find that they do better with the space they are used to. I take care of the home as well, such as water plants, mail, packages etc.

AMAZING!!! First time using Rover and we picked THE BEST animal lover to care for our dogs, Matilda is really special. We have had tons of dog sitters in the past 30 years but no one like Matilda, I don’t think my dogs want me back. 😂 One of my dogs has special needs and many health issues but Matilda handled Lightning like one of the family, so much love and caring!
Kiera took great care of our dog when we were away for a long weekend. She is sweet, friendly and responsive! She regularly sent updates along with photos and a video which gave us great peace of mind. We would definitely recommend Kiera and would happily have her take care of our pup again!
Savannah was wonderful to have stay in our home while we were on vacation for 4 days. She took great care of our 3 pups, and they can be quite the handful and very needy! We also had cats that she was comfortable with. She stayed in contact with us and always responded in a timely manner. She even was kind enough to take the trash out for us as we wouldn’t be home for pick up. We would recommend Savannah to care for your animals and trust her in your home. She was very kind and personable which made us feel at ease to leave our pups for a few days. We would love to use her again!
Inge was everything we hoped she'd be. We are new to the area so currently we don't really know anyone yet. We were fortunate enough to happen upon her rover account. Inge did a meet and greet a few weeks before our trip to allow our gracie the opportunity to get comfortable with both her and her sweet boy Julian 🐶. While we were away - Inge took great care of both our home and our sweet gracie. We got morning time and evening updates from Inge with several photos from thru out the day. She definitely made it easier to be away. We would absolutely use her services again and highly recommend to everyone looking! ❤️
