About: What sets me apart is how quickly I build trust and comfort with animals. I take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs — whether that’s burning energy with structured play, working on positive-reinforcement training, or providing calm, steady care for older pups. I focus on creating a stress-free experience for both pets and owners with dependable communication and thoughtful updates. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it has always been a big part of my life. I’m retired from CCPS, and I’ve had dogs of all kinds for as long as I can remember. I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking since my early 20s, and now that I’m retired, I finally get to enjoy doing it full-time. My days are flexible, and caring for pets is something I truly love — not something I squeeze in. I tailor my care to what each client and pet needs. I can do drop-in visits at your home for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. If you prefer boarding, I can welcome your pet into my home where they’ll have a safe, relaxed space and plenty of attention. My goal is to provide whatever style of care works best for your pet’s routine and comfort.
About: I have experience with many different breeds of dogs, starting with little yorkies to pitbulls. I am open to walking, sitting, and quick drop ins to feed. I love animals with my whole heart and have also completed service hours at an animal shelter. I myself have two golden doodles at my family’s house, and two cats at my college apartment. I am currently a server at fort myers beach. I mainly work 2-4 times a week usually from 4pm to the end of the night. Besides serving, my schedule is very open. I am a college student, but with summer coming up classes will be much slower. When caring for animals in my own home, i pay much less attention to my own personal taste and give my full attention to the animal. When dog sitting at my clients home, I usually look to see if there are any notes about food/medicine directions, as well as any house rules.
“Maria went above and beyond. It is always hard to have someone you don’t know care for your fur baby but meeting her put me at ease. She took great care of Jackson. She even rinsed his bowl. I couldn’t be happier. I will definitely look to book her again if needed.”

“Jocelyn is the best sitter we’ve found! She was communicative, timely and excellent with our 2 dogs. Both are under 2 yrs old so they can be a lot of energy and she took the time to not only give them their break and food but let them run and play in the yard. And her pictures were too cute! She unlocked and locked up and left Bluey on the TV for them! I would trust her back anytime with our dogs.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Estero
Lily was awesome. She visited with my 35 lb dog, Cooper three times a day (feed, water, and 30 minute walk) and gave him a ‘report card’, detailing pee, poop, walk details and other important information. I was pleased by her devotion to making him comfortable.
Catherine is a true GEM! She is highly intelligent, caring and loves dogs 🐾 She was extremely accommodating to us and took excellent care of our two mini Aussies. Came on time, and not only walked them but stayed and played with them too by our pool. They love her. We will be using her for sure in the future!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Estero stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Estero choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
