About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs since I was 10. I’ve regularly dog-sat for friends and family while they’re out of town, including feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets company. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m currently taking a break from school and work so I have full availability to take care of your pets! My schedule is incredibly flexible. I enjoy spending as much time with animals and I take them out for frequent potty breaks if needed. I can accommodate any need that you may have for your pets.
“Sophia did great with our dog, Bella, during a weekend stay! She kept us updated continuously & followed all detailed instructions for our very needy, senior pup. Super grateful for her patience!”

About: I have struggled personally while trying to find reliable care for my kitties on rover once we moved to FL - I am happy to be able to help out other cat families in the area! I have three cats, from a 14 year old senior to a 7 month old kitten. I am familiar and comfortable administering medications (our 7 month old has twice daily oral medication) and treatments (our 14 year old girl has feline asthma). I know how to be patient with cats and respect their space, while still ensuring they are getting the care and attention they need while their pet parents are away. I can house sit or do drop ins and am happy to come by prior to booking to ensure it's a good fit for everyone! I can't wait to meet your cat! I am working at the moment but average about 20 days off a month or more that I would love to get to know you and your pets by caring for them! I have a very flexible schedule and am very reliable. I have a fenced in yard and will be able to give your pet all the attention and care they need! I am able to crate, walk, wash, feed, administer medications etc however you need.
“Aliyah was a fantastic dog sitter for our two dogs! She’s an excellent communicator and was very attentive to their differing personalities and needs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.”


“Shannon was great, she came thru in a pinch when two prior pet sitters canceled on me! She was able to squeeze in a meet & greet with such short notice. Was prompt on sitting day. Provided photos and feedback. Will use again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years and have always had a passion for pets. I’ve owned two dogs and currently have two cats, so I understand the love, patience, and responsibility that come with caring for animals every day. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets by feeding them, giving fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I know that every pet has a different personality, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel happy and cared for. Whether your pet loves to play, go on walks, or just wants someone to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, dependable hands. I’m currently a student at the University of Central Florida and attend classes in person two days a week. I also work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to care for pets throughout the day. I live in New Smyrna Beach and can provide reliable drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and follow your care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pet like one of my own. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for everything from large dogs (120+ lbs) and senior pets needing medication , to cats, reptiles, and amphibians. With years of hands-on experience, I’m confident handling a variety of temperaments, special needs, and species. I genuinely love animals and treat every one like family—whether they bark, purr, or crawl! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my life. With open availability and a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, loving care whenever your pet needs me. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, clean, and secure environment tailored to each pet’s needs. Fully fenced backyard, private room for cats if needed. I follow routines closely, provide supervision, and give every animal—dog, cat, reptile, or otherwise—the same love, respect, and attention I give my own. I’m committed to building trust with both you and your pet while ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being.
About: Experienced with dogs and cats; emergency animal hospital background. Pet CPR/First Aid certified. Skilled, calm, reliable and attentive to your pets normal routine. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or house sitting. I am also comfortable giving medications and following veterinary instructions closely. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and can accommodate overnight stays when needed. With my background in an emergency animal hospital, I’m used to structured routines and can easily adapt to your pet’s specific schedule and needs. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, keeping the environment calm, clean, and consistent to reduce stress. I ensure pets are always supervised during visits, maintain secure doors and leashes during walks, and provide fresh water, feeding, and medication as directed.
About: Ever since I was a little kid I had a ton of pets from dogs to hamsters and lizards. As soon as I had my first dog I have dreamed of having a career that involved animals. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals. I am also able to come to your home whether it's for walking or drop in potty visits. I am planning on going to college in the future which makes me able to work long hours if needed. If you have a fenced yard I'll gladly throw toys around and play with your pet and if there isn't a fence I would love to leash them and go on a walk. I can let them out if they are in crates and am comfortable working in your house if you are out of town.
“Jacklynn was great with our dogs! She stayed at our house with them while she juggled work and school. It was exactly what we were looking for since they had never been left alone and we really didn't want to put them in a kennel. She was great at communicating and keeping us informed which really helped put us at ease while we were away!”
About: I love all animals, but dogs truly have my heart ❤️. My beloved miniature pinscher, my “Hopper Dog,” was my world. I raised him from a tiny puppy, and we shared 16 amazing years together filled with walks, talks, dancing, cuddles, and unconditional love. I miss him every day, and he is the reason I have such a deep appreciation for the special bond we share with our furry companions. I have years of experience caring for dogs with all types of needs, including special dietary requirements, medications, shots, treats, while giving lots of love, hugs, and attention. I enjoy being a trusted part of a dog’s life and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Over the years, I have cared for many friends’ furry babies through drop-in visits, potty breaks, walks, boarding, and in-home sitting. I am grateful to have wonderful clients who trust me with their furry loves! I truly enjoy spending time with each and every one of them and care for them as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and health challenges. I am dependable, honest, trustworthy, and committed to providing compassionate care and plenty of love. I would love the opportunity to welcome more furry clients into my life. I have so much love to give, and I can’t wait to meet your special companion! 💗🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I love providing walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of love and attention. I am dependable and able to create a routine that fits each pet’s needs, whether that includes medications, special care, or extra cuddles. Caring for animals brings joy to my day, and I love making each furry friend feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. 🐾❤️ Whether your fur baby is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, my goal is to make them feel completely pampered, safe, and loved. All the Snuggles: Expect endless cuddles, belly rubs, and kisses. If they love sleeping in bed at night, they are more than welcome to snuggle up with me! Playtime & Fun: I love keeping pets active, engaged, and happy with their favorite games and toys. Peace of Mind: You can travel stress-free knowing your pet is receiving dedicated, highly attentive care.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve had and cared for my own dogs for as long as I can remember, including my two dogs at home who are truly part of the family. I also regularly pet sit for a family about twice a year, so I’m comfortable taking on the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pets and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely see pet sitting as a passion, not just a job. I absolutely love animals and would be so excited to spend my time getting to know their personalities, keeping them company, playing with them, and giving them all the attention and care they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your babies, and I would treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. 🐾🤍 My promise is to always be attentive, dependable, patient, and loving, while making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for. Getting to work with animals is honestly a dream for me, and I would be so grateful for the opportunity to love on your fur babies! 🫶 I recently moved back to the Daytona Beach area and am currently a full-time college student, but all of my classes are online, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m not working a job right now, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. Since my schoolwork can be done from home and I can plan my schedule around my responsibilities, I’m able to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and spending quality time with your pets. I love having animals around and would genuinely enjoy making pet care a regular part of my week! 🐾🤍 Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in their home, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions their owner provides. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and make sure everything stays clean and just the way they left it. I’ll keep up with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and cuddles! 🐾🤍 I also understand that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow whatever routine helps them feel most comfortable. My goal is for your pets to feel like they’re getting their normal routine and lots of love while you’re away, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for. 🫶
“Brianne was amazing with our chaotic, nutty furry bunch! We left her with our trio of cats and the dynamic duo of dogs, for a total of five. The first thing we noticed was how all of our furry ones were drawn to her. Animals just know if a person is good. Being away is hard, but it feels better when you have someone you can trust to love you while you're gone. My wife and I had complete peace of mind with her caring for our babies. Brianne is the BEST!”

About: Hi! My name is Sarah, and if you spoke to anyone who's ever known me, the first thing they would probably tell you is that I love animals. I currently have four kitties who I absolutely adore — all of them are rescued. I love all dogs as well and I have a big soft spot for pits and chihuahuas. I also have had fish, ducks, chickens, geese, cows, and guinea pigs! I truly love them all. I can do dog walking and dog/cat/farm/other type of pet drop-ins. I have no breed or size preferences! I am comfortable around all dogs and can handle all sizes well including various demeanors and behavioral challenges or special needs. I would honestly love the chance to get to know your animals and be someone who you trust to care for them when you are away. Please don't hesitate to message me if you are interested! :) I currently work during the daytime but I am able to fill in while you’re gone by letting them outside To go to the bathroom and feeding / caring for them before and after work. I am very aware of my demeanor with new animals to make sure they feel safe and comfortable with me. I want them to trust me and be happy whenever I come by to take care of them.
“I cannot say enough about the level of service I receive when Darian comes to watch my dog. She is attentive, responsible and communicates daily to keep me reassured. This morning was the first morning since my return from a week long work trip away and my dog woke and ran to the guest room look for her. That speaks volumes. Thank you Darian!”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Glencoe walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Glencoe maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Glencoe 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!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
