About: I’ve taken care of my own cats and dogs until their passing of old age or adoption. I’m very kind and loving towards all animals. I work full time, but I have 3 days off during the week and I would love to take care of your pet in my free time! I understand that giving access to someone else’s home and pet can be scary, but I assure you that I will take good care of your pet and your home!
About: For over 15 years, I have provided comprehensive, high-quality care for both dogs and cats. My experience ranges from high-energy playtime to specialized senior care and positive reinforcement training. I pride myself on creating a safe, structured, and joyful environment for every pet. What I Offer- Medical & Senior Care: Confident in administering oral medications and skin topicals, as well as managing specialized routines for aging pets. Positive Training: Skilled in teaching basic manners, tricks, and reinforcing good behavior using force-free methods. Play & Enrichment: Expert at reading animal body language to deliver the perfect balance of physical exercise and mental stimulation. Feline Expertise: Experienced in managing cat behavior, specialized diets, and giving space to timid or anxious felines. Whether your pet needs basic puppy training, gentle elder care, or just a fun day of structured play, I adapt my approach to their unique personality. Because my work schedule varies week-to-week, I am highly adaptable and can often accommodate non-traditional times, last-minute requests, and mid-day visits that standard 9-to-5 sitters cannot. I manage my calendar tightly to ensure that when your pet is booked, they get my 100% undivided attention, medical care, and training focus. As a seasoned pet professional specializing in medical administration and behavioral training, I look at safety through a clinical and preventative lens. I do not just watch your pet; I actively monitor their health, behavior, and physical surroundings to prevent accidents before they happen. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing an expert is at the helm.

About: Ever since I was a kid I’ve always taken care of pets, I have had many cats and dogs myself and I can take care of one or more pets (even dogs and cats at the same time). I am a college student, that means that I can do my school work anywhere at any time, so it wouldn’t be a problem for me to watch your pet in your house. I also work as a server, but the shifts are usually 4 to 5 hours long, so I would never be gone for more than 6 hours. I love to play with dogs and cats! I would definitely have as much fun as they would when caring for them. I can feed, and clean up after them with no problem.
About: I have cared for dogs and different types of animals. I have experience with large and small dogs as well as dogs who require daily medicine needs. I am looking to care for animals mainly on the weekends or after my day job that ends most days at 6pm. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I am very observant when watching animals. I make sure my animals as well as others are within my eye line view at all times.
About: With 5 years of experience as a pet sitter, I have developed a deep passion for providing loving and responsible care to animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to maintain their routines, give them attention, and provide a calm environment. I am committed to offering dependable care built on trust, patience, and genuine love for animals! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to provide dependable and attentive care. I keep my schedule organized so I can be flexible with visits, walks, and overnight stays whenever possible. My goal is to give every pet the time, attention, and affection they deserve while keeping owners updated for complete peace of mind. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I take time to build trust with every pet, creating a calm and loving environment where they feel safe and cared for. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I'll treat them like a member of my own family and keep you updated with photos and messages throughout every visit.
“Nick is the best!! He takes beautiful photos of my Theo at every drop in visit, gives great updates and is so so good with my boy. I’m so grateful for him!”
About: I approach animals with respect and compassion. I always had kitties growing up, I also had 3 dogs a black lab, golden, and a german mutt I love dogs and I miss having them around !! I am very attentive to detail and will follow any instructions to a T :) I would want the same for my babies! Looking forward to meeting you and your Fur baby :) Currently I rent a studio in a house and the kitties love it ! They’re strictly indoor because Momo has allergies and Haru loves to eat lizards :( I feed them once a day and they’re good at pacing themselves till next feed in the AM. My kitties love me very much so i’d like to be able to stop by my house for an hour or 2 if it’s an over night stay . I am free from Thursdays 3PM - Sunday8pm for over night stays. I would be able to play, hangout, feed, walk, (poop scoop, litter box clean), any additional help I can do as well please let me know and we can work something out at booking ! :)
About: I grew up on a farm so I’m used to all kinds of shapes and sizes. I’ve also worked in the animal care industry for the last 10 years. Between dog boarding facilities, both private and corporate, to grooming, management and vet assistant experience, I will always work with animals. They’re a staple in my life and I’d like to be able to care for any future clients, as I would my own personal pets. I’m very detailed and will communicate anything and everything! Im currently working 4 days a week and have 2 set days off. That being Wednesday and Sunday. I’d like to drop down from my day job down to 2-3 days but still enjoy spending time with pets. Anytime after 7am Wednesday (gym in the mornings), and before 7pm on Sunday I will be available. I have a senior dog, and I’ve had multiple dogs in the past that needed extra attention and patience. Some dogs I’ve had also needed a lot of exercise and mental stimulation. I’ve done raw diets, freeze dried, dry and wet food. I’m able to give supplements and medications as well.
About: I had a family dog who I love and have been caring for since he was a baby. I recently moved to Orlando and my dog is staying with my family. I love all dogs and have experience with training, desensitizing, and caring for multiple dogs of different breeds. Im so excited to get to know and take care of your dogs soon! I am a full time student in Orlando. So, I will be in class from 8-5 everyday. I am able to take pets on early morning or evening walks. I am also a runner and would love to do short runs with high energy dogs! I am able to do house visits and pet sit at your house through the weekend or weekdays (if your dog is able to be alone from 8am to 5 pm) I understand that each dog will have its own particular needs. Outside of walks, if pet sitting, I think it is important for the dog to have some mental stimulation so I would take time to play mentally stimulating games with your dog!

“Karrie was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Frank and Rocco! They loved her right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was caring, reliable, and clearly great with animals.

Jenn got along great with our dogs and they immediately took a liking to her when they first met her, even though they tend to be nervous dogs when first meeting new people. She had a quick response time, sent us thorough updates, and sent us pictures of her visits.
Anastasiia was absolutely amazing with our pets, Mochi and Lovie! She was attentive and kind, and she ensured they were happy and well cared for the entire time. We loved the thoughtful updates and pictures she sent, which gave us such peace of mind. It's clear she truly loves animals, and Mochi and Lovie adored her. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again; highly recommend!
Yelena provided outstanding care for my Giant Schnauzer, Jager. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. She kept us updated, was attentive to Jager’s needs, and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for throughout his stay. Jager came home happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed the time he spent with her. Knowing that he was in such caring and trustworthy hands gave us complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Yelena to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional dog sitter. Thank you, Yelena, for taking such wonderful care of Jager. We would gladly trust you with him again!
Diane did drop-in visits for our pets Kiba, Nigel and Maryanne this past weekend and did an absolutely phenomenal job. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly attentive to their individual needs every time she came by. It's not always easy to leave your pets at home, but Diane made the whole experience stress-free from start to finish. We came back to two happy, healthy, well-looked-after pets — which says everything. If you're looking for a pet sitter who genuinely cares and takes the job seriously, look no further. Highly recommend!
Samantha was amazing! We were so fortunate to have Haze in her care. I have a 3 year old German Shepherd with a lot of energy, and she handled him so well. Samantha was attentive, communicative, and took great care of him. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos too! Would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾

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 Gotha 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!

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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.
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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
