We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely caring they are. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while we were away—which says everything. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a very happy pup and a tidy space, and it was obvious our dog had been treated like family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Elizabeth was fantastic! She sent pics and updates throughout the day while we were out! Our boy, Mav, was wiped out when we got home! He is about 3 1/2 yr old spoiled rotten Sheepadoodle! We would HIGHLY recommend her for your fur baby! She is kind and very patient - Mav took to her immediately!

About: Ive had 12 dogs and 3 cats throughout my whole life, and have taken care of them like they were my sibling.Puppies/Kittens, teenagers all the way to their senior years. I know how important it is to make sure your pets are being taken care properly of while you're not there. Im here to assure that. You may even come home to your puppy knowing a new trick. I am an unemployed college student with 1-2 classes a day. I have an open schedule to be attentive to your pets. Animals also boost my serotonin. I love to be outside or inside, so I am willing to accommodate to whatever your buddy needs. I have plenty of places to attentively let your pet play, walk, or relax with no interruptions. I communicate very well and often, if that is what you prefer with knack for following whatever rules are in place. I have an immense amount of patience, love and attentiveness within me helping me thrive under pressure and care for all beings.

About: I’m all about fun, friendly energy on every walk. Your pup gets to explore, play, and enjoy a safe, joyful journey every time we hit the pavement or grass! I have tons of pet care experience: I have two senior dogs of my own, aged 13 & 15, who I’ve had since they were old enough to be without their mommas; I’ve worked as a pet specialist at a boarding facility for dogs and cats; and I pet every dog I meet—with permission, of course. Like everyone, I love dogs, and would love to give yours some company on a play visit or walk! I work from home, and have a flexible schedule. I prefer to have a two-day notice, so I can make sure I’m available when you need me, but depending on the day, I could be available same-day too. Just contact me and see! I do not care for anyone’s pets but my own in my home. But in a client’s home, I care for pets by giving them what they need—I think it really depends on the desire of the client and the pets! Case by case basis. Belly and chin scratches are always a given though!

Pennie was everything my dogs and I needed! From the first contact to the very end she was responsive and great to work with. She was able to handle my overly excited dogs when she arrived, her calm demeanor helped them settle quickly. Pennie kept their normal schedule and my dogs were completely content that I was away, this made my very happy and settled my nerves about leaving them. Pennie will be my go to for now on.

I cannot express how grateful I am to Yaritza. I have a very anxious Chihuahua that suffers from separation. Yaritza was very aware of this and highly patient. She was highly communicative and thoughtful. This is the 1st time in a long time that I have felt at ease on trip that I had I had to leave my fur babies behind.

Danielle is very kind and was flexible in coordinating a meet and greet with our furbabies before our trip. She has a very gentle and calming presence, and you can tell she likes animals! Danielle is very responsive and always wrote back to me quickly. She is respectful of directions given, took good care of our pets, and we came home to a clean house. Thanks for watching our furbabies, Danielle!

My baby Eden is a handful. She is an eleven year old treewalker coonhound rescue who was never fortunate enough to live in a house. There are a lot of instructions when I have somebody watch her. Abigail did a great job! I also have a cat and two guinea pigs and she took wonderful care of them also. She kept me updated and sent pictures while my kids and I were in Florida for 7 days. I would definitely have her watch my fur babies again. If she is up for it lol.

About: I grew up closely involved with many kinds of animals and have always been a lover of nature and wildlife. Along with numerous family pets, we often fostered cats and dogs, as well as newborn kittens and puppies. In high school, I spent over a year volunteering for the Animal Welfare League in Port Charlotte, FL, caring for cats and dogs of many varieties. I currently have 4 cats of my own, all rescues which I love dearly! It would be an honor for you to trust me with the care of your pet, and I guarantee that I will love and care for them as if they were my own. I have experience with providing cats with basic, routine medical treatments such as pills, topicals, and injections. Communication is important to me, and I will gladly provide you with any updates or answer any questions you may have while I'm looking after your home or pet. I'm currently seeking more self-employment opportunities, so my availability for daily or weekly sitting services is completely open! If you're looking for regular walks/visits, we can work together to schedule according to your pet's needs. You can rely on me to treat your home and pets with integrity and respect. Ensuring the comfort and safety of your animals is my top priority! I will listen to your unique needs and concerns, and provide attentive care.

From day one Christian was professional and willing to work with our not so friendly boy. We got hourly updates with pictures on our animals. One of our animals got sick while we were away and Christian was great with extra cuddles and provided what was needed. We had no worries or hesitations about our kitties and dogs while we were away.

Cathy was a great house sitter who looked after our two cats while we were traveling. She communicated really well, drove down to meet the cats before confirming the booking, and showed up on time before us leaving to get access to the building. She also did a wonderful job communicating during our travel/ her stay with the cats. She took care of the cats’ medications needs, too! What I loved most about her is how prompt she is about responding to any messages. She kept us updated with pictures and lots of other information. She has been kind to the cats and tolerated them sleeping in/ on her suitcase, ha ha. We found the cats happy and healthy. She also took care of our place, it looks great- just as we left it. She also washed the sheets and towels and overall left the place exactly as she found if not better☺️ She is a kind person, and very personable. We loved having her as a house / cat sitter and will contact her again when we need her care. Thanks much, Cathy! And see you soon ☺️

About: I'm easy to get along with and have the right amount of energy for any size pet. I'm able to take care of any of your pets needs. I've owned plenty of animals like dogs and cats and I've grown up learning how to react to a bunch of different situations and the body language of all kinds of animals. I'm currently a stay at home mom of 3 and looking to help out while also making a bit of side money. I'm good at keeping animals of all shapes and sizes under control and calm when needed. I also have a bit of knowledge in vet associated subjects. I have a good memory of routines and what pets like and specific instructions from owners. I'm a stay at home mom of 3 so besides days of the kiddos appointments I'm free all day almost everyday any time! I have a decent sized fenced in backyard with no escape holes for anyone's little escape artists! We currently do not have any pets so there's no problem if your babies don't like other animals but they do have to be okay with kids under 5, besides a train my place is pretty anxious dog friendly!

It was my first time using Rover, and I was so nervous that my six cats would be too much to handle, especially with one being difficult to medicate. Lauren made the experience wonderful and completely put my anxiety at ease! She is kind, caring, and most importantly, incredibly patient. If you are looking for a pet sitter you can totally trust and rely on, Lauren has got you! Thank you, Lauren we look forward to booking you again, and our kitties loved their time with you!

Shelisha did a great job with our two large dogs. She was consistent with their schedule of food, treats, medication and play each day. Shelisha also communicated with us each day and sent photos and videos of our pets. On top of all that she also checked our mail and watered our plants. We highly recommend Shelisha as a dog sitter, as well as house sitter. We are grateful to have found her.

Christina was amazing with our senior dogs. One has epilepsy and the other one other health issues, so they are not that simple to take care of. She did a great job taking care of them. They were very happy with her and not stressed out. She kept me informed the entire time, was responsive, sent photos, and was able to give them their meds and vitamins. She stayed over and was respectful of our home. We recommend her and will be hiring her in the future.

Sia sat for our young dog at our home for a long vacation and she was wonderful! Teddy loved her, she provided regular updates and photos . She worked with him on playing fetch and taught him “Stop” while on walks. It was comforting to know our dog and our home were well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend anyone else to use Sia if she is available.
