“Sonia was amazing. She took perfect care of my cats and sent a ton of pictures. I felt perfectly at ease leaving my cats at home under her care while I was away. Will definitely be booking Sonia in the future!”


“Jennifer is great with my dog! Molly gets excited when she arrives. She is very flexible and does everything I ask her to do. She even is helping me to train her to know her name and to come when she is called.”


“Jamie was wonderful! My trip away was less stressful knowing that my three very spoiled kitties were being well cared for. She sent photos each visit and was easily reachable with texts. I will definitely be asking her to watch the kitty crew again!”

“Katrina was so very sweet and made a good connection with our cats. I knew the moment I met her we could count on her to take care of our 2 spoiled cats. I can surely sense her love for animals. Thank you Katrina foe putting our minds at ease while we were away.”


“This was my very first time using Rover or pet sitting services. I was nervous and a little stressed, but I couldn't have asked for better care or attention for my fur baby than what Rachael did! She is so friendly and compassionate toward animals and people! It reflects in the report card report and pictures I received during her visits with Earnestine. I would definitely recommend Rachael if you have to go away but want your pet cared for and loved in the same way they would be if you were home with them! Many thanks again!”


About: I love animals and have owned birds (zebra finches), ferrets, a dog (Labrador Retriever) and a cat (Domestic Shorthair). During my days in the College of Central Florida, I worked with the two horses they had there: a Thoroughbred named Ellie and an Arabian named Dolly. After graduating with my certificate in equine science, I volunteered at a cat shelter where I swept the floor, cleaned the litter boxes, and socialized the cats. Currently planning on owning a snake (most likely a red-tailed boa) one day. I am a currently unemployed night owl who is free to watch over any and all pets daily day or night throughout the entire week. I make sure that no pet gets into places they don't belong, eat things they shouldn’t eat, or go outside without a leash or harness.

“I am so glad we found Nicole, she was great with our dog Turbo. We would book her over and over without a doubt! Nicole's notes and updates were very reassuring that our pet was in good hands; she was attentive and patient with 16 year old Turbo. We couldn't have asked for anyone better!”


About: I love all animals and easy to make a connection. Your need is my goal. How can I help? Contact me with needs. Available anytime. I currently am on SS which means I have open availability. Can do mornings, mid day- nights. Very flexible just let me know. Needs? Me! I feed, play, walk, pet, give undivided attention. Any pet service is available just let me know and I will fo my best to service.

About: As a dedicated dog home caregiver, I provide loving, in-home care for your furry family members when you can’t be there. Whether you're at work, on vacation, or just need a helping hand, I ensure your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for in the comfort of their own home. I am retiring from my full time career and making the love of animals my next passion. I have had up to 3 dogs at a time in my home for many years with so much love. I have also had cats from 10- 40 years of age and loved every minute of caring for them. Now I would like to spend my days taking care of your beloved fur babies. Please contact me to see if me, and your family are a good match. I also use Rover to care for my fur babies and understand the trust that goes into having someone care for your beloved animals while your away. Pet care is part of my everyday life from when I get up. It's right before I go to bed. I truly enjoy.I'm taking care of my animals and also new furry friends. At present, until retirement, in a few short months, my availability is mostly nights and weekends. I adhere to the needs of the client and the fur babies. I am extremely punctual and will make sure that your pet and your households are taken care of properly.

About: I care about them as if they were my own. They don't live as long as humans so they deserve the best life we can give them while they're here. The only experience and knowledge I have of dogs and cats is what I've learned on my own with my pets throughout my life. I don't have a job so my availability is mostly flexible. Looking for extra money, I don't have any special skills I just need extra money and love dogs and cats. The only thing I can think of that puts me apart from other services/sitters is the desire and drive to complete any task, besides my love for pets, I have a great work ethic that helps me be motivated to ensure every step was taken in completing a task. Money is also a great motivator but isn't the saying "do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life", that's a great interpretation of my work ethic. I'm currently unemployed. I usually have availability on Saturday, and Sunday. If I am available during the weekend I will update my schedule, otherwise that's my availability. I cannot offer boarding in my home because I live in an apartment where each pet in my home needs to be paid for and accounted for by my apartment management but I will treat your animals and living spaces like royalty and respect all responsibilities asked of me while I care for your pets in your home.

About: I have personally taken care of my own dog(s), family members pets, and friends pets for most of my life. I have worked with senior dogs, puppies, kittens, blind dogs, and special needs dogs before. As of now, I take care of my dog Estrella (Boston Terrier) and my other dog Sirena (Labradoodle). Besides this, I also live with two of my roommates kitties! I always make sure to pay special attention towards the furry friends I take care of, always following the rules provided by their owner. Currently, I am home from university, and therefore, have a pretty free schedule. I am free on weekdays, and occasionally on weekends. I would like to spend this time home taking care of pets, as it is something I truly do enjoy doing! I am typically available towards the morning or early afternoons. Will be willing to work with different times if needed. At my client's home, I enjoy playing with their pets, and spoiling them with some treats (if allowed and if obey)! I will make sure that your pet(s) is my priority, and so is your home. My ultimate goal is to provide the best service to you and your furry friend :)

“Sarah was truly amazing! She made the process so smooth for us and my family. Especially with the amount of dogs we had her watch she truly did an amazing job. Making sure each one of our pups got the care they needed and attention. I will be using her again for anything I need and I will HIGHLY recommend her again!”


About: I have been watching dogs since I was 8 years old. I have bred German Shepherd puppies most of my life with my family. Dogs are my passion and I love them lots! Would love to watch yours! Love working in The Villages as well! I work remote so I have the ability to watch dogs and even sit with them for a while and let them roam around while I work. I can stay at your house or just do drop ins if you’re more comfortable with that! Would love to talk on the phone prior and introduce myself! Thanks I would rather go to the owners house as I rent and my landlord does not allow pets right now. I do watch animals at my parents house!

JAMES M.
“I highly recommend Jim as a pet sitter. He is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and has a natural way with animals. My pets were well cared for and happy in his hands, and I had complete peace of mind while I was away.”


Greg L.
“The story that beat fits who this man is when it comes to his love for animals takes place few years ago. Greg was driving on the Veterans Express way and he saw a stray kitten who was scared and dodging speeding cars. Greg pulled over and immediately risked his safety to attempt to try to save the cat, while calling 911. Of course, 911 does not take these calls so they sent him to animal control who would not come to help. He called me heartbroken that no one would help. This is the man who would be looking out for your beloved animals best interests!”
