“This was the first time we’d ever left our 14-year-old senior Pomeranian, who has separation anxiety, for more than a day. We went on a 10-day overseas trip and were understandably nervous. Vadim and Stacy are truly the best dog sitters out there, and they absolutely proved it. My mind was always at ease thanks to frequent updates on every walk, her status, cuddles, and constant communication. They treated our girl, Savannah, like she was their own, and despite her separation anxiety, she quickly bonded with them and their pom, Riley, becoming part of their family. I couldn’t be happier. They carefully followed her specific food regimen and eye-drop schedule, and we are so grateful for how well cared for and pampered she was. We can’t wait to do it again!”
“Mafalda was such a great caretaker for my cat! He isn't an easy guy to host, but she was the sweetest and most patient with him. Sent tons of pictures every day as well. I'd definitely use her again!”
“Finding someone you trust to watch your dog is a big deal! Adrian was wonderful with Mica and sent many pictures where he looked very happy. The doggy playmates were wonderful for him. Adrian has an obvious love and compassion and it shows in Mica when he came home. We will be using her again.”
“Thank you, Jessica for taking great care of Teddy! Your quick responses and daily pictures and updates made us feel very connected and assured that Teddy was in great hands. We would feel very comfortable to have you take care of Teddy again whenever we need to go away.”
“I booked Irina last minute and she was able to accommodate, I was away for 2 days and she kept me updated with pictures and videos! Would definitely recommend and will rebook again”
“Definitely a 5 Star sitter. I contacted Taylor on very short notice. She responded within 10 minutes. She was watching my dog with in 1 hour. My dog Cookie really liked staying with Taylor. She was very loving to my dog. Taylor sent me several pictures and videos of my dog during the day. I would highly recommend Taylor to watch your pet. We are definitely going to use Taylor again to watch my dog. 👏”
“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Milo, during his two-night stay. She was caring, professional, and kept me updated throughout, which gave me great peace of mind. Milo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I would not hesitate to leave Milo with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional dog sitter. Thank you, Sarah!”
“Katherine was great! We were visiting from out of town and unable to check into our airB&B yet and desperately needed someone to watch our dogs while we were out. She was very flexible and quick to respond! The dogs loved her :)”

“Jennifer and her dog Kona were great companions for my pup, Twix. Twix is very shy around people, but he warmed up to Jennifer pretty quickly and did not want to leave! Overall Jennifer took great care of our dog, sent us lots of pictures and updates! Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“I had a last minute work trip and reached out with very little notice. Elizabeth was quick to respond and took great care of Hudson. Every picture I received Hudson was all smiles.”
“Antonio was wonderful with Piper! She spent a little over one week with him at his home and I got pictures, updates, and came home to a happy and healthy Chihuahua :)”
“llaria is an amazing sitter! She provided daily updates and treated Otto like one her own. I highly recommend her for any boarding services. Otto came home happy and well rested!”
“Leaving my pup in Natalie’s care was one of the best decisions I’ve made recently. She was responsive, proactive with keeping me up to date on how he was doing, socialized well with other dogs in her care, provided a large open space for my dog to play, and provided me with peace of mind about where he’d be spending his time while boarded prior to even dropping him off. I would recommend Natalie to anyone looking for top notch care for their furry friends. Thanks again!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for Princess! She took amazing care of her and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and happy. She was very responsive whenever we checked in and sent lots of adorable pictures and updates, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that Princess received top-notch care and plenty of love. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Catherine is the BEST caregiver of our sweet dog Ridley! She truly goes out of her way to communicate and provide videos, pictures and updates. I cannot say enough great things about Catherine and her family! Thank you so very much for this positive and happy experience! I feel that we have not only met the best sitter for our dog, but we have made a new friend! Awesome!”
“We left our fur baby with Debi and Tom for 3 days and they were wonderful. They let us come and do a meet and greet prior to the booking dates and then send us pictures and updates every day. We haven't used a pet sitter before so had hesitations and were feeling nervous but they really put us at ease and our little Gigi was extremely happy to be there, making herself at home very quickly. Our trip ended early and Debi and Tom were very accommodating letting us pick Gi up early. We will be 100% be using them again in the future. We cannot recommend them enough!”
“Teresa was the best sitter, I loved that she gave updates daily and contacted me multiple times daily and also sent pictures and my baby always looked happy and peaceful. It’s really hard to leave your small dogs with someone new but she eases my worries. My dog is difficult to care for and requires a lot of extra attention, at night and with potty breaks he tends to mark or go where he’s not supposed to. But Teresa was very patient with him. Thanks so much ! Will use her again soon”
Fort Lauderdale pet parents share their Rover experiences
David is a superb pet sitter indeed! I am always hesitant to leave my senior dog with someone new, but David went above and beyond to care for our little guy. He gave daily updates with pictures and videos…as well as made suggestions from the knowledge he has with dogs and especially some older ones. I will definitely book with David next time we need a sitter. He’s a really sweet person and a loving care giver. Five stars across the board!
Felipe and his wife were wonderful to my two babies. I received many pictures while I was away. Knowing that my dogs were comfortable give me peace of mind because they are both service dogs and I honestly I probably couldn't function that well without them for too long. I would easily.I recommend them and we'll use them again in the future if I need too.
Jessica was the best! She has great energy and will protect your dogs at all cost! My two girls are not quite trained yet and my anxiety for leaving was sky high but Jessica reassured me they were ok and she made whatever adjustments she needed to for everyone to have a great experience. Highly recommend.
Jennifer was wonderful! She took great care of Ellie and kept us updated throughout the stay with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Ellie was well cared for and loved. We would definitely book with Jennifer again and highly recommend her!
Sarah was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Milo, during his two-night stay. She was caring, professional, and kept me updated throughout, which gave me great peace of mind. Milo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I would not hesitate to leave Milo with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional dog sitter. Thank you, Sarah!
Anita was fantastic! Tully our King Charles cavalier spent nearly two weeks at Anitas place - she was well looked after and was happy in her care - the enclosed back yard was perfect for her along with the walks. We were updated with photos and fab communication. Would highly recommend Anita and we are very grateful.
Our girls spent 10 days with Camilla and her mom while we were out of the country and they were extremely well cared for! It was our second time they stayed with her and they were thrilled to be back. We got many photos of our pups enjoying the spacious backyard and making other doggy friends. Would absolutely have them stay again!
I’m still sitting in my parking spot after picking up Penny because I just had to write this review before driving away… that’s how blown away I am. This was my first time leaving her with Vadim and Anastasia, and they made the whole experience so easy. The photos and videos they sent throughout her stay were constant and genuinely heartwarming. Cuddles, treats, pets, etc. I never once had to wonder how she was doing. Their communication is also exceptional. I travel a lot for work so having found them is a life saver. 10/10 would recommend to anyone needing to leave their pups!
I needed a last minute sitter and found Horacio scrolling through Rover. Upon arrival he immediately showed me his property and the areas for all dogs. His yard is nice and super accommodating for the dogs! He communicates really well and sent a bunch of videos without me asking. Sammy had a good time and seemed to be taken care of well. I would recommend him and book with him again!
