“Cheyenne was sooooo amazing with my dog. I needed someone to take her potty twice in one day and she was GREAT! She sent photos, kept me posted when she got there, and shared details and photos of her visit. We will definitely use Cheyenne again!”

“Danny is excellent. He's very communicative, prompt in his reponses and flexible! He takes great care of our baby girl Roxy and I know this because she always is so happy and calm after I come home after a long day at work. He's really helped us transition her into our home and we look forward to having him in our lives for to continue to build a relationship with Roxy. You rock Danny!”


“Natalie was timely, sent us lots of pics of the pups, and was in constant contact with us while she visited the pups. We were traveling from out of town and felt comfortable that our dogs were taken care of while we were gone. Next time we’re in Orlando we will rebook !”


“Thank you Ms. Shirley for taking great care of my babies while I was out. It gives me great peace that you love and care for them as much as I do! I will definitely book you again very very soon!”


“Brooke was an excellent care taker for our cats. When I came home, they still had plenty of food and water left. She vacuumed around the litter box so we didn’t come home to a complete mess, and she even gifted some toys and treats for the cats. She spent a lot of time playing with our cats when she checked in which I really appreciated. Thank you Brooke!”

We will definitely be booking her again.”

About: Hello. My name is Martha and I can't wait to meet your best little friend. I have been taking care of my own pets for the last 40 years and would love help take care of your fantastic four legged babies. My current doggie Zoey is a 1 year old Jackabee who requires lots of activities and exercise that I happily give her daily in our large fenced in back yard and multiple trips to a near by Dog Park at Park of the Americas. Currently I am between jobs so I am able to give full time care for your sweet puppy, which is great for those potty emergencies. Even in the event that I would have to leave it's never longer than an hour and my Mother or Husband would be home to help. I have a big fenced in yard that is perfect for play and exercise. Rainy days aren't a problem cause we have a spacious screened in porch. Overnight we keep our Zoey in a crate near our bed and we are able to divide space in the house if your fur baby needs quiet time. There are two beautiful parks within walking distance, one with a Dog Park. I have two kids that love dogs and are eager to help play with there new Puppy Dog Pal. I have taken care of several older dogs in my time including giving medication, appropriate exercise and proper diet. I do ask that your pet be potty trained Please. I am in between jobs right now so I've got plenty of time to look after your sweet puppers. They will have plenty of open spaces, either in our yard or at the Dog Park that's within walking distance. We have a very large fenced in back yard. For rainy days we can play on our spacious screened in porch. In my life I've taken care of older pets too including giving medication, appropriate exercise and proper diet. Our Pup and all her furry friends get all the love and affection they'll ever need, and then some more.

About: I love love love all animals; I even donate to a lot of rescues and have fostered dogs. Dogs have a special place in my heart—I call them fur angels—and I’ve had them my entire life. I had to lay my last rescue (she was actually a foster fail—I kept her instead of adopting her out!) to rest on 3/17/25 and there is a huge, gaping hole in my heart. My heart needs some time to recover before getting another one. I’ve had and cared for dogs my entire life. I absolutely love getting to know their unique personalities, treating them with nothing but the love and affection they all deserve, and walking, playing, spoiling, and (especially!) cuddling with them. I would love to take care of yours as if you were taking them to grandma’s! If you want to do a meet-and-greet, I’d love the opportunity to meet your fur angel. :) I’m currently working for myself from home on my own schedule so I am extremely flexible. I can give potty breaks as often as possible, but I don’t have a fenced yard to let them roam free, so it will be leashed potty breaks/walks outside. Updating for scheduling clarification: A “drop-in visit” is for me to come to your home and care for your dog. This includes letting them outside in a fenced yard for a potty break and zoomies, if they desire, as well as food, fresh water, and cuddle and play time. A “Dog Walk” is for me to come to your pet and walk them for the amount of time you book. The actual length of the walk/time outside will be impacted by your wishes, the weather (heat, especially), and if there’s anything else I need to fit into the booked window, such as time for water, eating, playing, etc. Obviously, I want happy pet parents and pets and will always do the best I can to care for your pet as if he/she were my own. :) I am currently without my own dog for the first time in decades, so your fur angel will have me all to themselves! I will be as “spoiling” or “strict” as you’d like. I gave my own dogs a healthy level of structure and manners but they were also really spoiled. I will follow your wishes as it is your fur baby. As a baseline, I make sure they have comfortable places to lay, as much active time as they’d like, and plenty of water, treats, and food-and, of course, tons of cuddles!!

About: If you are a returning client, disregard the Rover calendar and message me about availability. I am a licensed mental health professional. When school's in session, weekday check in or check out is after 4pm because of my fulltime career. My adult daughters assist to provide support while I am working. My family has been a foster home for a Central Florida rescue for several years. We have experience with many doggie personalities and even special needs. While vacationing with our family, your friendly four-legged loved one will have a chance to... Sleep the same way they sleep at home Socialize with resident playmates Visit the nearby dog park Play inside and outside in our fenced backyard Go for pack walks on leashes Get lots of love from my 2 daughters Enjoy a luxurious bath Get a snazzy new haircut I do offer discounts for families with multiple dogs. I have various sized crates for crate-trained dogs and I only use them for crate-trained dogs when requested by the parent. I keep food available in multiple bowls at all times of night and day (to let the dogs know they don't have to protect their resources) unless your pet has a specific dietary need, in which case I will feed them separately and my dogs' food will be kept out of reach. My dogs stay vaccinated and on prevention meds at all times so that you don't have to worry and I don't have to worry if your dog isn't perfectly up to date or if you can't find the records. I’m already going through a daily dog routine with my two, so why not add another? We feed them twice a day and go for a walk in the evening. I have a fenced yard and a flap door so they can go outside as needed anytime. We allow guests to live among our family as members of the pack. We have experience with special diets, administering medications, and basic grooming as needed.
