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!

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 an overnight journalist who just recently made the big move from Arkansas to Florida! I have had animals my entire life up until this move (so hard to leave family pets!), so would love the chance to take care of your furry friend while also using up both of our extra energy through walks/playtime! I work overnights (typically 11 PM to 8 AM) so am available all day for drop-ins/walks! I am more than happy to plan my sleep around your pet. Just let me know what you need and I’m happy to help. ***PLEASE READ: I am happy to accommodate same-day bookings if you book in the morning! If you’re requesting a booking after ~2 p.m. there’s a chance I won’t see it until the evening! (Feel free to book evening times… just need to know by 2 that day!) If you have questions just message me :) I’ve owned pets my entire life and understand that every furry friend has different needs and boundaries. I am more than willing to accommodate anything needed to keep your pet feeling safe and happy. I do not have other animals so will be able to provide your pet with my full attention!

About: Growing up around Forster dogs and family pets, caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they get plenty of attention, patience, playtime, and care. I am a full-time college who is currently off for summer break. I have plenty of time on my hands and want to spend it doing something I love. I will care for every pet as if they are my own. Each pet’s normal routine will be followed closely. With my own dog, we go on walks twice a day, and he also has a back yard to play in.

About: My whole life I have been surrounded by animals of all kind. I always navigated to them, growing a deep passion and love for all sizes, shapes, and types of animals. In my teenage years to now I have been a reliable pet sitter, and friendly companion while the pets owners are not able to be there. I currently live in a place where my landlord prefers me to not have a pet, so I try my best to stay surrounded by other’s pets. I truly enjoy the company of a furry friend and would love to help you have a smoother schedule and not have to worry about the time missed with them while you’re away. I am a yoga teacher by morning and waitress by night however my days are somewhat open and flexible with the current schedule that I have, I am typically at work for 6 hours. Unfortunately I would not be a great fit for smaller dogs that need to go out more often but if their bathroom schedule fits well with my work schedule, I’d love to be their companion while you are away and give them all the attention when I am there with them. Since my landlord will not allow me to have pets, I can only care for your pets in the comfort of your own space. I find it easy to adapt to each pet’s needs and do whatever I need to to make sure they are comfortable, happy, and feel loved.

About: Hello! My name is Alex and I am currently a registered nurse. I moved to Fort Myers 2 years ago, but I am originally from Virginia. I love all animals but specifically, I have a real warm appreciation for dogs. Back in Virginia, my mother is a certified dog trainer and started her own dog training/boarding company so we had many different breeds at our house 24/7 and I loved every moment of it! I have learned many training tips from my mom, and ever since I moved to Florida I miss the comfort of having pups around which is why I joined Rover. I consider myself a person whose not only affectionate but very trustworthy, energetic, friendly, professional and reliable. These characteristics led me to my nursing career. My schedule is flexible and I can provide my own transportation. If you need to reach me, texting is the best way to contact me. I promise to take care of your dog as if it was my own. It is no surprise that humans can relate to the quote - "a dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than they love themself." My schedule for work is different every week so the best way to know which days I am available is to look at my calendar. I live in an apartment with my boyfriend and we have hosted many dogs before. We have 1 miniature dachshund who gets along well with other dogs. Our apartment complex is very dog friendly and has a dog park. For safety purposes and to keep your dog safe, I do not go to the dog park if there are other dogs there and I do not host dogs from different families at the same time.

About: I live in GATEWAY, near JetBlue park. I grew up on a farm in Ohio tending for many animals for many years. Have owned several cats, dogs and lizards in my adult life. Do not currently own any pets I am a Flight Attendant. I create my own travel schedule, so I can be flexible with enough notice. When I’m home I’m completely flexible with my routine. We live on a quiet street great for long walks. We have a large lanai that is perfect for napping. Our neighborhood requires all animals to be leashed outside so I will be with your dog at all times.

About: My heart truly belongs to the fur babies of this world!! I would absolutely enjoy making some extra income doing what I love most. I have taken 1 year of Vet Tech courses at Baker College. At the age of 16 I received my license and started Petsitting that very first week. I have 32+ years of experience being a Petsitter!!! I have worked in a Veterinary Clinic for a short time and have also worked at the Kent County Humane Society in Grand Rapids, MI. I have a lot of general knowledge in animal care and handling. I have a bit of experience in training dogs also. I would treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I have a lot of love to give and would love to get to know your fur baby/babies. ***If you book a drop in visit or walk the minimum I stay is 30 minutes. It’s not uncommon for me to hangout for up to an hour. I don’t view this as a job. It’s a honor and a pleasure to spend time with any and all fur babies so I’m often not in a hurry to leave. I’ve been a housekeeper for many years and have always done Petsitting/Pet Care on the side for my cleaning customers. Now that I am older I have given up the house cleaning and am just focusing on the fur babies. I moved down here to Florida a few years ago and decided I want to get back to petsitting. I was a former school bus driver back in Michigan. When I moved to Florida the thought of driving bus in this crazy traffic did not appeal to me. I became a store manager for a self storage facility down here but I’ve decided it’s time for me to get back to my passion. I want to care and love on your babies!!! I have one elderly cat and two dogs currently in my home. My cat has to be quarantined to one part of the house due to the fact my dog Molly has developed a fear of cats and can’t be trusted with Lucy. She also doesn’t like other dogs so I unfortunately can’t do any petsitting in my home. I have excellent references that can be provided. I understand it is scary to let a stranger watch your fur child so I will gladly provide references at your request. I will cater to your pets special needs and will do my best to provide them comfort and love while you are away. I offer a free meet and greet to go over all care instructions that will be needed while you are away. This gives us a bit to get to know one another. I’m so excited to meet you and your furry family members.

Christian was fantastic. My Gracie was well taken care of. She’s an older dog and Christian let her walk at her own pace. He was very caring, always made sure she had fresh water, a treat and some extra puppy rubs before he left. Christian also had excellent communication with me throughout the process and would send pictures of Gracie on their walk. I highly recommend him for any pet services! Thank you so much Christian!
