“I cannot recommend Jessica highly enough! She took such wonderful care of my Betty Boop, stopping by three times on Wednesday to let her out in the yard and spend quality time with her. This is our second Betty watch. Jessica is incredibly responsive, answering questions quickly, sending updates and photos throughout the day, and putting my mind completely at ease while I was away. Which helps a tremendously as Betty and I don't often spend time apart, ha! Her availability has been a lifesaver. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and even more importantly, she truly loves the animals she cares for. Betty Boop came running to greet me, happy and content, clearly having enjoyed all the attention and yard time. Reliable, kind, communicative, and so much more, she's the real deal. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your furry family member, look no further!”
About: I love animals and have always been the neighborhood dog walker since I was young, I now live in the Villages and have two dogs. I love taking them to the local dog park and would happy to bring some of that love I have for them into your pets lives! I am very flexible with my hours and am willing to drive to your house to walk or watch your pet. I require at least a one day notice. My biggest accomplishment for house/dog sitting would be for your dog to feel as comfortable as possible in your home while you are out of town!

I have hands-on experience with senior animals, large breeds, and animals needing medication or extra attention. My background working with horses has also strengthened my confidence in handling animals of any size and temperament with patience and care. am currently an overnight veterinary technician at a large animal hospital. My work schedule allows me plenty of daytime flexibility to provide dedicated pet care. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or extended visits, I’m able to give your pets the attention and care they deserve while maintaining a consistent routine. At my residence there is plentiful amounts of grass for your pet to play in.

“Carol was so wonderful to work with and amazing with my sweet Bodhi! She updated me on her check ins and sent pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies. She loves them like her own and makes sure they have everything they need!”
“Hailey was amazing! I was able to relax the whole time I was away. She was prompt and went above and beyond to hang out and play with my dog. Seeing all the pictures each time made me so happy! Definitely recommend!”

I truly enjoy each and every animal I’ve ever come across. I truly believe, Dogs are man’s best friend. Thank you for giving me the chance to watch over your baby while you’re gone.

About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.
About: I've been blessed to have had dogs and cats most of my entire life. This is the first time I haven't had my own dog and I miss her daily. Pet sitting fills a void in my heart and I will do everything to ensure your pet is happy, healthy and well taken care of. I recently relocated back to California from Lake Lure, North Carolina. My entire community in Western NC was devastated by Hurricane Helene and I was evacuated and returned home near my family. I have enjoyed all of the amazing dogs and animals I have had the pleasure of sitting in the past through Rover.com. Now that I am back in CA I would like to continue my work with animals. I am a responsible caring person who loves animals and am currently available to help with your pets in Santa Maria, Santa Barbara, or Santa Ynez Valley. I would never trust a client's dog off a leash. Your animals will never be left alone and always escorted on their walks, unless otherwise told by the owner. Your pets will enjoy the comforts of their own home and be safe while you are away.
About: I’m home all day/night pet sitting full time! Once I became a pet owner I never looked back. My fury child is my life. As a pet owner for 14 years I am very skillful in all areas of pet car from teeth brushing to tick picking. I have seen them grow old, loose their hearing, sight and ability to walk, but never once treated them like an old dog. I take seriously the need for touch by brushing their hair as often as possible and giving belly ribs when they turn on their backs for that special attention. My bed is their bed as they like to cuddle and feel safe and secure. I am a morning person and love feeling the brisk air as I watch pets take to the grass for their morning outing. I am home all day/night! I am available as early as 5:30am to receive your fury child into my home. I have plenty of space for them to play and I for one like to keep them in my site. Especially the little ones, they can get into so much. I have 4 dogs parks right in my community and each one is covered in grass. I love to walk, so your pet will never be taken off schedule. I have the best water-resistant floors in the event of any accidents, just wipe and go. I take work/life balance breaks so always free to play with your pets. I am currently home all day/night! I can feed twice a day or more, and I offer treats, walks and lots of play time. I can separate your pet, if need be. I have lots of sleeping space for those that are just tired little pups. My house is quiet, no children so no bother. I have a closed in balcony which provide a nice look out point for your pet. I have stuff animals and dog toys that I leave around the house for playmates as well.
About: I once fostered greyhounds, I was up to 10 at 1 time, and I could walk all of them at the same time without a problem. I am currently not working. So I will have every time available that you need someone can I live across from the walk park and just down the street from the dog park I currently do not have any pets , so there should not be a problem with your dog in my home if needed i have a very safe dog friendly home
About: Caring for others has always been my passion, and that includes caring for pets! As the owner of Senior Care by Vickie, I have built my reputation on trust, compassion, and reliability. Pet owners choose me because they know their furry family members will be treated like my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including puppies and senior pets, and I am comfortable administering oral medications, following special feeding routines, and providing extra patience and attention to pets with unique needs. I am insured, dependable, and believe communication is key, so you’ll receive updates and photos during every visit. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, my goal is to provide loving, personalized care that gives you complete peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾💜 Pet care fits naturally into my schedule because I own my own business, Senior Care by Vickie. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable dog walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. I intentionally limit the number of clients I accept so every pet receives the time, attention, and personalized care they deserve. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and many holidays with advance notice. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. In your home, I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and favorite activities, helping reduce stress while you’re away. I keep your home secure, respect your privacy, and provide regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I take the time to build trust with every animal and treat each one with the same love, patience, and care I give my own dog. I am attentive to changes in behavior and will contact you immediately if I have any concerns.
“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I love dogs. Friends call me the whisperer. I lost my Princess 2 years ago to cancer and I find that this is the best medicine for me. I love to travel so having another baby right now is not in the cards. Taking care of your baby is the next best thing. I have had people fly me out to Portland, California, and New York to pet sit for them. I absolutley love it. Some of the dogs I have cared for were sick or new family members. I love to take them on new adventures but only if Mom and Dad are okay with it. I also love to train, play, and hug on them. My only job is taking care of your dog, so I am with them the entire day and night. Sometimes they will go on a golf cart ride with me. My yard is not fenced in so your dog would be walked regularly. There are plenty of grassy areas next to and accross the street from me. If there is a schedule you have for the dog that is what will be followed.
About: If you want to get away for that well deserved vacation or just a 3 day weekend and feel secure in knowing that your fur babies are being lovingly cared for, then I’m just who you’re looking for! I have loved dogs (and most animals) my whole life. I think of them as a family member, not as a pet. I will remain calm around your loved one as not to cause any anxiety. Even though I don’t have a dog at this time, I have had many dogs throughout my life. I can hardly remember a time that I didn’t have one. My best friend (a Boxer named CC) had quite a few medical problems from 2010 through 2015 and I had to give her an average of 17 pills a day. (Sometimes less). So I’m pretty experienced as far as that goes. My schedule is very flexible and I am very reliable. I am flexible about allowing your pet on furniture. If that’s not allowed I will follow your wishes 100%.

I cannot recommend Nalani highly enough! From day one, she has treated my dog like family, providing not only reliable walks but also genuine care, attention, and affection. It is clear that she truly loves animals and takes the time to understand each dog's personality, needs, and routine. Nalani is professional, dependable, and excellent with communication. I always receive updates and can tell my dog is happy, well-exercised, and excited to see her. Whether it's a quick walk or extended pet care, I have complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in caring and capable hands. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, and goes above and beyond for your pet, look no further. Nalani consistently exceeds expectations, and I would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone seeking top-quality dog walking or pet care services.
Nicole stepped in to assist with our dog during a family emergency where I had to travel out of state at the last minute. Without hesitation she took care of our very particular Lacey - walks to the pond close by, and tackled the process of feeding Lacey - which is not easy - but handled it like champion! We are forever grateful for Nicole’s help and we will reach out to her in the future as our dog walking needs arise. AND she was kind enough to bring us ice cream treats 🍦
Jennifer went above and beyond for us. When someone else bailed for one of the two visits we needed, Jennifer stepped up and provided a second visit at the last minute. She was exceptionally pleasant during the meet and greet, and the dogs loved her. She will definitely be requested again.
So thankful Tyson was available to help us with our pooches while our family was traveling. We were able to enjoy our vacation with our minds at ease while Tyson dropped in to our home where he provided the best care and fun for our boys! Tyson’s an awesome communicator and just a super nice person. I hope the next time we are traveling we are lucky enough to find him able to help us again! Thank you so much Tyson!!

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 Fruitland Park 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!

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.
