“Mackenzie was absolutely wonderful with Turbo! Leaving him behind when we go away is never easy, but she made us feel so comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and it was clear that Turbo was happy and comfortable with her. It means so much to find someone who genuinely loves animals and treats your dog like their own. Being able to enjoy our time away knowing Turbo was being loved and cared for gave us such peace of mind. We’re so thankful we found Mackenzie and will absolutely be having her watch Turbo again. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: Hello. I am a lifelong dog owner and dog carer. I have owned a Brittany Spaniel, and a Shischon from puppy-stage through the end of their lives. Currently I care for a senior Lab and middle-aged German Shephard/Rotweiler mix, both belonging to my daughter who lives in Jacksonville with her husband and my 18-month old grand-son with another expected in November. I've been a Rover client and sitter off and on since 2018. I've not been active for almost 5 years during which time I've worked as a freelance researcher on almost a full-time basis. The demand for that work is shifting and I want to return to dog/house-sitting to supplement my income. I am comfortable walking, visiting and house-sitting small- and medium-size dogs, including senior dogs, and am experienced with giving medicine. I have a BS in Business Administration and 30+ years of work experience in the legal services industry. I am a mother, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend. I love to walk outside, grill, and sit beside a fire. I'm an SEC fan, so fall is my favorite time of year! I want to acknowledge the one negative client review regarding a client's senior dog. I was hired for drop-in visits . I let time get away from me for two visits. One of the things that Rover does well is notify dog owners know when their sitter/carer is onsite. The owner notified me when I did not arrive within a reasonable time of the scheduled time and I immediately went to the client site. The dog was fine but the owner was obviously alarmed and terminated the relationship. I take full responsibility for those lapses and they will not happen again. I ask for the opportunity to meet you and your pet and discuss if this is a good fit for us all. Kind regards, Suzanne I am a freelance researcher and work remotely from home. I have full schedule flexibility enabling me to meet your pets' daily schedule for feeding and walks. I am able to be present in my client's home throughout the day and night, available to your pet(s) as needed. I enjoy taking them for walk, playing with them and cuddling with them. I'm generally good with letting them sleep with me, depending on their size and temperament.

Since I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day.

“Pete did an excellent job with our fur babies while we were away! Even our bashful cat Petunia succumbed to his charms. Pete sent us photos multiple times while we were gone. It was reassuring to see our fur-kids doing well. The house was well maintained upon our return. We will be reaching out again to book with Pete.”

“Amber was so fantastic. My cat has feline idiopathic cystitis and is prone to blockages due to stress and separation anxiety so it was very important to have a caring pet sitter to spend time with him and give him his medication while I was out of town. Amber was so great about keeping me updated with his litter and letting me know everyday if he had peed. It eased so much of my anxiety and I know my cats too. She also sent lots of pictures of my sweet boy while I was gone looking happy and healthy. Will definitely be booking her again next time I go out of town.”

“RUN, don’t walk - to hire Tayler for all of your pet’s needs. I’ve had my fair share of lackluster dog sitters (even from this app, unfortunately) and Tayler goes above and beyond on every front. It started with the meet and greet - I have two anxious beagle girls who get a bit stressed with new people in the house. The moment she walked in, they were at ease, barely made a fuss and were asking for belly rubs within a few minutes (lol I swear pets can sense great energy.) Tayler stayed at our place for a few days while we were away and kept us very updated with walks, happy photos and with any questions she had about our place. She’s kind, nurturing and is exactly the person I needed to find for me to feel *amazing* about leaving them with someone. I just know her calendar is going to fill up quickly - so don’t hesitate to book her ASAP 👏”

“Angelina was great with our cats. Everything requested was done and the cats were happy and well taken care of. Additionally she sent us pictures while we were away. Definitely recommend”

“Lauren was great with my dog, she sent several pictures through the day and always kept me updated. I was super comfortable with her being in my place with my dog and had no complaints!”

“Our dog Sach was with Rosanna and her family for two weeks over the Christmas holiday. He felt immediately at home and was treated like a king the whole time he was there. I received daily pictures and updates on him. Their house and yard were perfect. The love and kindness they showed Sach was above and beyond what was expected. I will definitely book all vacations again with Rosanna.. Thank you so much for treating my dog as part of your family.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have over 10 years of experience caring for pets. I grew up around my family’s dog grooming business, where I’ve helped care for and handle dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I also worked as a receptionist at a veterinary clinic for a year, which gave me even more experience around animals and helped me learn how to recognize their different needs and behaviors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, basic grooming, and giving pets lots of attention and love. Being around animals in both grooming and veterinary settings has taught me how important patience, safety, and making pets feel comfortable are. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always treat them like they’re my own while they’re in my care! I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your pets. I'm a part time server so I work short shifts anf have plenty if free time. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and other pet care needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and household rules. With my experience working around animals in a veterinary clinic and my family’s grooming business, I’m comfortable handling pets with different personalities and needs. I’ll always treat your home with respect and your pets with the same care and attention I give my own.

“Jason was great and very respectful! Took awesome care of my dog, who took to him instantly.”

About: Growing up, I always had a special place in my heart for animals, especially dogs. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with both large and small breeds including Akitas, Huskies, Boxers, Chihuahuas, and Pomsky mixes. As I got older and moved out on my own, I owned a pitbull who I loved wholeheartedly and sadly lost to cancer in 2024. Since then, I’ve adopted two beautiful American Staffordshire Terriers from the same litter who have filled my home with love again. I truly treat every dog like family. They are welcome on the couches, in the bed, and even in the pool if approved by you! I have a fenced in backyard for safe playtime and lots of room for love, cuddles, and attention. I’m also great with teaching basic commands, keeping routines consistent, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your home with the same care and respect as my own, and you may even come home to a cleaner house than you left! I genuinely love bringing happiness, comfort, and peace of mind to people and their pets. I recently moved to Florida from Buffalo and decided to start pet sitting to help fill my free time doing something that truly makes me happy. As much as I hope to help your dog feel loved and cared for, they help my heart just as much too. I look forward to meeting you and your special pup! I currently have open availability Monday through Sunday, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, love, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending my free time around animals, so your pup will never feel ignored or lonely while in my care. I am very flexible with schedules and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a unfenced backyard, but a lot of yard, lots of walking trails and sidewalks, a loving home environment, and experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities as my previous pitbull was very reactive & didn’t get along with other dogs if you have a reactive dog I completely understand! I always follow routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions provided to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.

About: I have parented dogs, cats, puppies and kittens for over 30 years. I love all animals and would care for almost any type. Same day availability. I’m retired and available any time. I work part time remotely as an accountant. I have a fenced yard, a garage, and an extra bedroom. I will spoil your fur babies as if they were my own. I speak all species of cat and dog, but I’m not fluent in bird. 🤭😉
