“We are new to the area and we’ve had to begin the search for a new friend to care for our hot dog. We needed a walker for her and found Denise. She is a lovely person, very sweet and kind. She is friendly and responsible as well, along with reliable...all of the qualities we were looking for. Now our only issue is...she is so great she is always booked! Oh well, we’ll use her whenever we can. Thanks, Denise!”
“Heather is phenomenal! She provided great care to our dogs while we were away. Kept us well informed as to what was going on and how they were doing. They absolutely loved her and will request her services again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, I have had 2 dogs- a Yorkshire terrier and golden retriever. So I am very fond of big and small dogs! I’m currently unemployed due to moving states, so I have plenty of free time to take care of pets and looking for something new! I work out so I would love to take the dogs for walks, and for them to play outside. I have a 2 story house for the animals to walk up and down the stairs, also a lenai if they would like to sit outside, I also live in a gated community so we have a big yard for the dogs to run around. I make sure to give the animals attention and respect always. Clients will always be updated daily!😊
“Amara has visited with our dog on two separate, multi-day visits, and was absolutely wonderful. Great communication, timely, and she makes sure your pet is taken care of. Couldn’t ask for anyone better to take care of our pet!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! I love every breed but I have mainly owned larger breeds! I have a Doberman now who is turning 10! He loves our daily walks! I work part time so I am available on Tuesday’s and Friday’s from the morning until late afternoon! Some days I can do after work so just let me know your schedule and we can figure it out! I take my dog on walks everyday around our neighborhood! I am comfortable with dogs and cats. I love playing with them and I’ll be sure to check their food and water as well!
“Christelle is very sweet! First time using rover and she dropped in on Maui. She sent pictures of Maui in his natural habitat. You can tell Maui was very happy with her too! Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I'm always the one to take care of all of my friends and family members pets when they travel so I figured being part of the Rover Team would be a great idea! I also work from home which allows me to give them attention, take them on potty breaks throughout the day without a problem. I know how important it is for our dogs to be taken care of. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule to be able to give them the attention and breaks they need. I have a pet myself (Mini Schnauzer) so its easier to implement that routine with any pets that are visiting or if your doggie has a different routine just let me know and I will make sure to follow it:) I am very careful in house and vigilant when going on walks to make sure theyre good! Any doggie I take care of is like if it was mine hence their safety and wellbeing is always a priority!
“One of our dogs is not cut out for Florida heat and was walked a bit too long and overheated. Charles tended to her, cleaned up after her and kept communication with me during her duress, which I appreciated.”
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Whether it’s a playful pup or a cuddly senior, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and plenty of attention. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and understood while you're away. I offer flexible availability, including weekdays, weekends, and short notice bookings—so whether it’s a midday walk or a weekend of snuggles, I’ve got you covered. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the care they deserve! Hi! I currently work full time but I work remotely. I am available for pet walks early mornings (6am), afternoons (12-1), night time( 6pm-8pm). I have full availability on weekends as well for 24 hour support. I can also do house visits with a schedule that you need! I live in an apartment with a gated community and top notch security. I also have a balcony that screened in! I am very detailed oriented as well and can provide the best possible care!
“I am so happy to have found Victoria!! Not only is she incredible with our doggo but she was super accommodating and kind! Our dog was obsessed with her from the moment they met! Not only that, but since he can be reactive around other dogs, it was such a relief that she was willing and able to make some adjustments during the walk to ensure everyone was safe. Would definitely recommend to anyone who was looking for a trustworthy and sweet person to take care of their dog. Thanks Victoria!”
“Thank you Serena for taking great care of Paisley during the week. She enjoyed her walks and play time! Loved seeing the photos that were sent on the rover cards every day. Serena is dependable and answers quickly! Will be contacting her again when needed!”

About: Im from Mississippi and have been working with animals since I was a young girl! I’m a licensed veterinary technician living in the Fort Myers area, have worked as licensed vet tech for over 8 years now, and currently work at Gulf Coast Humane Society. So, who better to watch your precious fur babies than someone who made this their whole life :) I graduated from Mississippi State University’s Veterinary Medical Technology Program in May and have been working ever since, and as you know, making it right out of college is hard. That’s why I’ve decided to team up with rover and try and earn a little extra cash for bills and groceries! Look no further for your new pet sitter because I can promise, your babies will be in the best hands! No doubt :) I am usually very flexible with my schedule and organize/prioritize my time well in order to ensure the best care i can provide. I insist on a detailed routine for me to follow in order to do so. I have my own pets with their own morning, daily, and night routines and I am very capable of doing it for other fur babies as well.
About: I have walked and taken care of dogs for many years, I often pet sit for friends and family. It is a joy to take their fur babies on walks and play with them. I often help out by bathing them and feeding them when needed. Pet care is my priority and is a daily routine with two little pups of my own. We go on daily walks and spend extra cuddle time. I feed, bathe, take them out and enjoy reinforcing their training that they have already learned with treats that are acceptable for them. I really enjoy taking them on walks or taking them to the local dog park.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Kyle! He took excellent care of my home and dog while I was away. From the moment I met him, I felt completely at ease knowing my dog would be in such good hands. Kyle was incredibly reliable, communicated regularly with me, and ensured that my dog received plenty of love, attention, and walks. He also kept the house in perfect condition, respecting all of my instructions and even going above and beyond to make sure everything was running smoothly. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

Brittany T.
“Brittany has been pet sitting for us since 2017 and she is the best of the best. Because of her background as a vet tech she is experienced with difficult pups as well as admistering all types of medications. We usually have 2-4 dogs at any given time because we foster for a rescue and Brittany welcomes all of our new furbabies and picks up the routine and any medications. We usually have multiple dogs on medications, eye drops and different foods and Brittany doesn’t bat an eye at handling all of it. Unfortunately as some of our pack aged we started dealing with liver, kidney and heart failure and I can’t imagine navigating it without Brittany. She administered fluids as needed and even got our dog with kidney failure to start eating her food again. She has always been incredibly reliable and caring.”
Charity C.
“I’m picky about who watches my dog, but Charity passed the test. She put my anxious dog at ease and also made me feel comfortable about leaving her. She will care for your pet like it’s her own. I would use Charity again, and my dog definitely loves her. You can count on a great experience all around.”
Alyson R.
“Alyson is awesome! If your pup needs extra belly rubs after his walk, please give a shout. Alyson shows up on time and her communication is great! Will definitely use her again for Guzmo!”
