Pet Sitting Galt Mile

“Amazing communication!”

About: Over the years I have cared for a variety of animals, including domestic, exotic, and livestock. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their medically needy animals over the past decade and I am now opening that service up to Rover. I'm not a vet tech but I am comfortable and experienced administering a variety of medical treatments like insulin injections, pill regiments, eye drops/skin ointments, and subq fluids. Leaving town with a pet can be stressful, especially one that needs specialized care. I can help. Currently over all I have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have my own small business that is sporadic gig work on the weekends. Most events last 4 to 6 hours, maximum 8 hours, and not every weekend has events. I prefer to pet sit in the home the pets belong to. I find that with most animals it's incredibly stressful to move them, staying in their home with them minimalizes that stress. It also allows for easier medicine administration. I like to meet the pets and owners ahead of staying with them, this is to again reduce the stress on your pet when I show up without you as well as to observe the quality of care you are administering to your fur babies.

“I have just had by far my best experience with Rover. I had a last minute trip and Marianne went above and beyond in caring for my kitties. She is amazing. I had absolutely nothing to worry about while I was gone. She didnt cut any corners and gave very thorough updates throughout the time I was gone. When I came home the kitties were stress free too, I could really tell she spent time putting them at ease. I'd give her 10 stars if I could.”

“Marissa has been so helpful! Our puppy is so energetic, so young, and honestly a handful and Marissa has more than kept up. She makes sure our pup is cared for and she keeps us updated with everything that happens, we feel so comfortable with her around Winston. He can be a little needy, and truthfully so is his dad (lol) and she has been happy to help with all of our specific instructions. We couldn’t have had a better experience!”

About: I work in a Veterinary office & Paw Spa in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I am also a dog photographer! I am surrounded by dogs & cats daily and the care that they need will absolutely be my top priority! For 18 years + I have taken care of dogs that need special diets, medications, insulin and eye drops from cataract surgery. My two Cavaliers are Elliott & Walter, they are my family & they also want my attention 24/7! I know how a pet feels when they are not with “their person”… they need to feel comforted & loved. So I talk to them, cuddle them, play, praise them, they get hugs & kisses! I do the same at work, and try to make all dogs checking in feel comfortable, so that they are not nervous while they are getting groomed. *I can also bathe, fluff, nail dremel, shave paw pads, clean ears & do a sanitary trim for an additional $35. My favorite is taking pictures of your pets, I’m happy to send videos and photos daily so that you can see how much fun your pet is having while you relax while you’re away! Your dog should be neutered/spayed, unless a puppy 🐶 be socialized and able to be around others without aggression. Also be friendly with cats 🐈, I have 2! Only “Socialized non-aggressive dogs 20lbs or less”, no pit bulls. Please have pictures and details about your pet on your Rover profile. My employment allows me to come home during my lunch hour to spend time with my dogs, feed them and let them out and play. I am available for small dogs to board in my home. I do have two kitties 🐈‍⬛ and would want to make sure your dog 🐕 is friendly around felines. I am off work for the weekends. If you prefer your pet stay at their own home, I can do drop- in visits for 30 minutes or 60 minutes. I am privately insured with Pet Care Insurance to care for your pet in my home, or yours. *Please make sure if your pets are staying at my home, that they are caught up on their current vaccinations and flea medication’s. Have you ever taken your dog to a doggy daycare & observed that they are friendly with dogs? That’s the kind of dog that would blend in best with my environment here with my two cavaliers, and I also have 2 cats. I would not take on more than two dogs at a time, so that I can give them enough attention. I have a large fenced in yard where I take my dogs outside to safely play! I also have a smaller fenced in side yard/patio off of my kitchen. I would like to do a meet and greet prior, either at my house or in my yard. I want to make sure everyone is “social & comfortable”. All dogs should be neutered or spayed, except for puppies under 8 months old. 🐶 If your dog has a favorite bed or blanket or toys, please pack those for their pup-vacation!

“Luzmar was amazing!!! She came and checked on our two dogs while we went out of town last minute. If you need help with your pups, she’s the best!!!”

“Krystal did a wonderful job taking care of my two babies. She did two visits a day to my home to feed walk and take care of my babies. I got home last night and they were both happy and healthy and very well taken care of.”

About: I've always had a deep connection with dogs. I bring a very calming canine energy, and trust is gained quickly. Anyone who has a dog(s) and knows me well will ask me to sit for them when they can't provide the care their dogs need. When I retired from my successful 45 year sales career, I had planned on getting a dog. As it's turned out, my friends and neighbors with dogs have kept me very busy. And it's been the most fulfilling and gratifying chapter of my life. I just have an innate ability to connect with dogs and what I give to them, they give back to me. It's been a very rewarding time in my life now that I get to do what I love best: to be surrounded with canine company. And I can unequivocally and honestly say I'm very good at it. As I said, I'm retired and can easily accommodate the needs of prospective clients. I'm readily available and am very flexible with you and your dog's schedules. I live in my recently renovated condo in the very upscale community of Coral Ridge in Fort Lauderdale. It's a small two-story residence easily accessible to lush parks and magnificent estate homes. We have excellent security with a Neighborhood Watch and private 24 hour Coral Ridge Patrols. Patrolling

“Aaron is AWESOME! He came and helped me out big time when I had a sudden emergency stay at the hospital. He went above and beyond with my dog Tank. He took great of him in my absence and I can’t be more appreciative. Truly 5 star!💯”

“Sandy is the best!! I have zero worries about my Lily girl when I leave town. Sandy always treats Lily like her own and makes sure the routine is stable and consistent, which helps Lily have less anxiety while I’m away. As always, THANK YOU Sandy for all you do!”

About: Loving, Reliable Care for Your Pup — Now With More Time to Give! Hi there! I’ve been on Rover since 2023, and now that I’m semi-retired, I’m excited to dedicate even more of my time to caring for dogs. Spending my days with pups is one of my greatest joys — whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company. I share my home with my friendly dog, Kyle, who loves meeting new furry friends. I’m patient, attentive, and truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and needs. Your pup will be treated like family here! Whether you need drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I’m here to help and make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged baby. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m semi-retired, I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to each dog I care for. My day usually includes morning and evening walks, regular playtime, and lots of attention and affection throughout the day. I also build in time for feeding, potty breaks, and any special routines or instructions a pet may have. Because I already care for my own dog, Kyle, I’m used to maintaining a consistent, calm, and pet-friendly environment. Adding another pup into the routine feels seamless — I truly enjoy it, and I make sure each dog gets the care and engagement needed. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and relaxed environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walks to playtime and rest. My dog, Kyle, is friendly and enjoys having company, so visiting pups always have a companion. I supervise all interactions, provide plenty of affection, and make sure each dog has their own space if they need quiet time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions carefully. I maintain the pet’s familiar routine, whether that involves walks, meals, medications, or special habits. I give them lots of attention, keep their environment tidy, and send regular updates so owners feel connected and reassured. No matter the service, my goal is always the same: to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well-loved. 🐾

“Caring, responsible, punctual. Thank you Jennifer for the care you gave to my furry babies. Take care.”

I’m known for being patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality. I often go the extra mile because that’s the kind of care I’d want for my own pets.

Flexible schedule with loving pet care including feeding, play, companionship, litter care, walks, strolls, runs, cleaning food stations, fresh water, and building trust with your pet. I do have a fenced yard and closed home but unless necessary, I’d prefer to come visit at your home where your pet feels safer.

About: I have alot of experience with all types of Dogs from seniors to disabled, as I've been fostering and rescuing for 17yrs now. I work from home part time so I am available 24/7. I am a very responsible dog owner myself. I cook for my dogs, give them supplements, red light therapy(lol), and make sure I always walk with an air bottle or taser to keep safe from aggressive dogs off leash. You have absolutely nothing to worry about if you leave your baby's in my care! I am currently working part time from home so I am very flexible and easily available especially last minute. I am very active so if your dog has alot of energy we can go for a nice jog! I have a 6 foot locked and gated backyard. Walm my dogs 2-3 times a day and dog park when able to. I am a bit OCD with safety. I never leave a home unless I check to see if stove top and dryer is off.

“José was very accommodating and responsive, especially since this was over the holidays. He works with his brother, so it was great to know they have a team to ensure everything is taken care of.”
