Our cats love Autumn. She must be a cat whisperer because she managed to get both of our wild kitties to give her cuddles at the same time. She takes excellent car of them and takes the cutest videos and pictures for us. Highly recommend 😊

Jennifer is amazing! Our babies were very happy, she loved them up for us while we were gone & took great care of them. Would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing someone & will surely wish to have her take care of our babies again. To note, this was very last minute as our plans changed & she provided us comfort before & during our absence knowing they were being loved up & well taken care of. Thanks Jennifer

Nadia took wonderful care of my two kitties while I was away. She was excellent at communication and got back to me within a couple of hours or less. She made sure to clarify if she was unsure of something rather than making assumptions. I received lots of cute photos while I was gone. She was willing to even give my kitties medication and meet beforehand to review their care and medication administration. I appreciate her thoroughness and thoughtfulness.

My 2 kitties are both females and reaching ole age of 15 yrs. Golden G stands for the Golden Girls!!! But we luv boy doggies too. I pet sit for my neighbors and they are the ones who suggested I offer my services out. They will be my best references. I cared for fish, hamsters, bunny's and even pet chickens. Luv them all. Can't watch animal kingdom, even though its nature, breaks my heart. I love furry babies and could not even imagine life without them. Luv luv 💓

About: Hi! I truly love animals! I am a caring and energetic animal lover, ready to give your furry friend the best walks and attention! I know how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet with someone else — I will treat them like a family member, with love, patience, and care. I have experience with dogs of all sizes — from playful puppies to strong large breeds — and I love spending time outdoors with them. I am responsible, have a flexible schedule, and always send photos and updates during each walk or visit. Let’s make your pet’s day brighter together!♥️ I moved to Florida from Ukraine. Right now, I don’t have a job and can’t have a pet yet due to financial instability, but I believe that everything will change soon. I’m happy that there is an opportunity to spend time with animals and earn money. I hope I can be helpful to you and become a friend to your family ♥️ I always make sure pets are safe and happy during my care. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions about feeding, walking, and playing. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs, making sure they get enough exercise, water, and affection. If needed, I can also clean up after them and brush their fur to keep them comfortable and well-groomed

I am willing to work with you and your pets however you need, so that you and your pets are well taken care of. I can walk, sit, feed, water, groom, and whatever else you may need.

Debbie was a fabulous caregiver to my cat, Hadrian. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, even going as far as to adjust our original planned schedule to address his finicky eating habits. When I returned home from my 9 day trip, Hadrian was happy and well-adjusted. I appreciated Debbie's daily reports and pictures, and I was overjoyed to come home to find Hadrian's litter box area well swept. It was nice to not have to worry about cleaning the floor after a long plane ride. Debbie rocks!

About: Pets have been part of my life since I was born and I couldn’t imagine my life without one. We’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters, birds, fish and even turtles. I’ve adopted all of my dogs, some with health problems. I also adopted a 9 year old senior that was with me for 7 years. I had a dog with diabetes and Cushing's disease which involved shots at meal times, many pills and a special diet. So I don’t shy away from dogs with medical issues or who are up in age. I have found great people for my fur babies through Rover and look forward to caring for yours so you have peace of mind. I do not work outside of the home so I am very flexible with my schedule. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat so after I have finished their morning routine, I start with clients. I never take a dog out of the front door unless they are on a leash prior to the door opening. If you have a fenced yard, I check to make sure any gates are locked and the yard is clear of any obstacles or wildlife before letting them out.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the level of personalized care, attention to detail, and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I don’t just show up to feed and walk—I take time to understand each animal’s routine, personality, and special needs. Whether it's a shy cat who needs extra patience, a high-energy dog who loves long walks, or a senior pet with medication needs, I adjust my care to make them feel comfortable and loved. Pet care fits beautifully into my retired routine because I now have the time and flexibility to truly dedicate myself to it. Each day, I enjoy starting my morning with a walk or play session with the pets in my care—it keeps me active and gives structure to my day. Throughout the week, I schedule pet visits or overnight stays around my personal commitments, allowing me to be reliable and fully present for both the pets and their owners. Caring for animals brings me joy, purpose, and a sense of companionship, which is a wonderful complement to my retired lifestyle. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply offering comfort and company, I enjoy making each pet feel safe and loved while their families are away. Caring for your pet in their own home helps them feel safe, secure, and relaxed while you're away. Here's what I provide to make sure they receive the best care possible: 🐾 Familiar Routine I follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and medications. Keeping things consistent helps reduce stress and keeps your pet happy. 🐾 Individualized Attention Every pet is different, so I adjust my care to meet their unique needs—whether that’s extra playtime, quiet companionship, or special handling for seniors or shy pets. 🐾 Safety & Wellness I monitor your pet’s health and behavior during each visit, and I’ll contact you right away if I notice anything out of the ordinary. Their safety is always my top priority. 🐾 A Clean & Comfortable Space I make sure food and water bowls are clean and full, litter boxes are scooped, and accidents are cleaned up promptly. Your home stays tidy, and your pet stays comfortable. 🐾 Communication & Peace of Mind You’ll receive regular updates with photos and notes so you can feel confident knowing your pet is being well cared for—even when you’re away.

I highly recommend Nancy!!! She is wonderful!!! I cannot say enough! She is very responsive, flexible and a genuine animal lover. When Nancy noticed Harley’s eyes were swollen and puffy, she immediately contacted the vet and made an appointment. Harley ended up having pink eye. Nancy ensured Harley received her medication to treat her pink eye. It was comforting to know Harley was in such goods hands! Thank you Nancy for giving me “peace of mind” while I was away!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by chickens, goats, pigs, cows, cats, and dogs—and my love for animals has only grown since then! Over the years, I’ve also cared for more unique pets like lizards, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with just about any species. What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth and variety of my hands-on experience. I’ve had and trained about 10 dogs within our family and have completed several training classes with many of them, giving me a solid foundation in puppy training, obedience work, and behavioral understanding. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand how to accommodate their changing needs with patience and compassion. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers a quiet cuddle, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with lots of love, respect, and attention to their unique personality and routine. I am currently working part time at a restaurant so I will be available a decent amount of the week. Early mornings or late evening work best with some days more flexible than others. Pet care in my home is all about safety, structure, and love. I currently have three dogs—two sweet seniors and one playful puppy—so I’m very familiar with balancing different energy levels and needs. One of my seniors is a Yorkie who’s turning 18 soon, so I understand how important it is to maintain routines, monitor for health changes, and provide gentle, attentive care, especially for older pets. We recently moved from a 14-acre property to a home with a securely fenced yard, so the dogs still have space to play safely and get fresh air. I make sure every pet in my care is treated like part of the family—with regular potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also keep a close eye on diet, hydration, and any medications or special needs. In a client’s home, I always aim to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. I take detailed notes, ask the right questions, and make sure your pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable while you're away.

About: I am an avid dog lover. My current dog is an 8 year old Labradoodle named Winnie. I can’t imagine a life without dogs! They are the best!! I’m currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! There is nothing that I would rather be doing! I take the greatest of care with all animals. They are a precious gift. If they are important to you, then they are important to me.

I highly recommend Nancy!!! She is wonderful!!! I cannot say enough! She is very responsive, flexible and a genuine animal lover. When Nancy noticed Harley’s eyes were swollen and puffy, she immediately contacted the vet and made an appointment. Harley ended up having pink eye. Nancy ensured Harley received her medication to treat her pink eye. It was comforting to know Harley was in such goods hands! Thank you Nancy for giving me “peace of mind” while I was away!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by chickens, goats, pigs, cows, cats, and dogs—and my love for animals has only grown since then! Over the years, I’ve also cared for more unique pets like lizards, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with just about any species. What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth and variety of my hands-on experience. I’ve had and trained about 10 dogs within our family and have completed several training classes with many of them, giving me a solid foundation in puppy training, obedience work, and behavioral understanding. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand how to accommodate their changing needs with patience and compassion. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers a quiet cuddle, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with lots of love, respect, and attention to their unique personality and routine. I am currently working part time at a restaurant so I will be available a decent amount of the week. Early mornings or late evening work best with some days more flexible than others. Pet care in my home is all about safety, structure, and love. I currently have three dogs—two sweet seniors and one playful puppy—so I’m very familiar with balancing different energy levels and needs. One of my seniors is a Yorkie who’s turning 18 soon, so I understand how important it is to maintain routines, monitor for health changes, and provide gentle, attentive care, especially for older pets. We recently moved from a 14-acre property to a home with a securely fenced yard, so the dogs still have space to play safely and get fresh air. I make sure every pet in my care is treated like part of the family—with regular potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also keep a close eye on diet, hydration, and any medications or special needs. In a client’s home, I always aim to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. I take detailed notes, ask the right questions, and make sure your pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable while you're away.
