“Nicole was so attentive to my boys! They looked so happy going on walks with her (she sent great pics)!!! Very communicative and I was comforted that my boys were in good hands!”

About: 10+ years of keeping dogs happy, tired, and well-fed. Big dogs, small dogs, hyper dogs, lazy dogs, I've handled them all. Your pup will be loved and well taken care of! I work from home, so your dog basically gets a full-time roommate. Walks, playtime, naps, we stay on a solid routine all day. Boredom is not on the schedule. Apartment life with a dog park downstairs, best of both worlds. Clean space, calm vibes, and your dog gets outdoor time whenever they want. They'll be living their best life until you're back.
“Alyssa is amazing! She’s great with communication, set me lots of updates and pictures, and my dog absolutely loved her! Will definitely be rebooking!”

“Nicole was prompt, efficient and handled the tasks professionally with care. Our dog Valentino was always happy to see her. Our cat Sohji, who never comes out for guests surprisingly showed up for a cameo pic! This is an indication that even Shoji was comfortable with her presence and care. We recommend Nicole as a competent and caring pet specialist. Nicole will always be our pet care specialist when needed.”

About: Not only am I a parent to 2 dogs and 2 cats, but a lover and champion for the rights of all animals. Big or small, I enjoy learning different personalities and winning over the stubborn ones. I implement training from my own fur kid’s trainer when necessary, enjoy nature walks and fresh air time and my favorite, conversations and giving rubs. My 13 year old Border Terrier mix has the occasional skin allergy, for which I give him medication, so I am also able to do so for yours, if needed. I know how it can feel to be away from your fur baby, therefore, take that into account, as I want for my girls and boys when I travel. They are in good, happy, responsible, caring hands. Feel this in later but has to be 18 words or more needed. So I am writing more words for now. And then we shall see. Feel this in later but has to be 18 words or more needed.

“I cannot recommend Marrianne enough! She did an absolutely amazing job caring for my dog. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring and capable hands. She went above and beyond — sending regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes after each walk. It was obvious my dog was happy, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyed their time together. I came home to a relaxed, well-exercised, and very content pup. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and truly passionate about what they do. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member! Thank you again for everything! 🐾💛”

“Genesis was great with my babies. Good communication and puntual. Banksy’s behavior showed me he was very happy with Genesis daily walks. Thank you again for coming through last minute after my back up to my other two permanent pet sitters canceled last minute. Thank you again, Genesis.”


About: I grew up in an animal loving household. I have had dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, and ferrets. Raised my girl from 8 weeks old and she’ll be turning 9 yrs this year. I was also a foster mom for my local shelter where I provided a safe place for over 15 dogs, puppies, kittens, and cats I work from home, so I can provide multiple walks a day for dogs as well as provide a watchful eye while boarding your baby. My dog is my baby, so the couch and bed is her lounge place. I have a spare bedroom that will be a perfect getaway for your baby. Providing them with their own safe place.
“I feel very at ease having Canela in Estefania’s care. I appreciate her prompt communication, detailed updates, and willingness to go above and beyond. She has a wonderful and kind personality. I’m happy I met her and I’m grateful I have her to support me with Canela in the future.”

About: I’ve loved dogs and grown up with them my whole life. I raised and trained my family dog since she was a puppy and am her primary caretaker when I’m home. My neighbors, friends, and family have always been able to rely on me to take care of their pets in any way they need, including grooming, walking, feeding, and playing. I’m currently a full-time medical student at FAU, but my schedule varies day to day. For the most part, I would love to take care of your pet either in the mornings or afternoons. I love to go on walks outside, so I would be happy to take your pet for a walk or play with them. I will adhere to any rules regarding where your pets are allowed to go inside the home. I am used to ensuring that pets stay in or out of certain rooms, and am comfortable caring for dogs in homes with fenced yards.
Dorsey-Riverbend dog parents share their Rover experiences
I highly recommend Aaron for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker or pet sitter. They took wonderful care of my dog while I was on vacation, and I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. They were always punctual, attentive, and incredibly loving. It was clear that they genuinely care about animals, and my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned. Their professionalism and kindness truly stood out. I would absolutely trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.

Absolutely love Jessica! I highly recommend to anyone in the Fort Lauderdale area looking for a loving family to care for their pets. Her and her daughter are fantastic with animals, and were gentle and kind towards my Macimus. I will definitely be using her again and recommend to everyone!

Genesis is great! I was nervous to do this but she is a life saver. Beso is my baby and thanks to her I was able to relax and enjoy. Thank you. It was my first time with her but I’d definitely try with her again. She was very present and communicative. 5 stars ⭐️

Ayelen is very kind. When first meeting my dog, she got on the floor and starting petting her and talking to her like I do! My dogs tail started wagging immediately. She arrived on time, sent pictures during my pups walk, asked informed questions, followed directions - you really can't ask for better! My dog came back tired, so I am really appreciative she got some exercise!
