About: Hello! My name is Athena and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I am reliable, experienced, caring, on-time, and a trustworthy individual who genuinely loves and cares for dogs, cats, hamsters, and animals of all sizes. I am a dog mama to my 5 happy and friendly pups. Chopper and Cece are both registered ESA animals. Besides my own pet sitting business, I have work experience caring for packs of dogs as I have worked at dog daycare facilities Camp Run-A-Mutt and Dogtopia in San Diego. I am trained in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY: I am certified and trained in Pet CPR and First Aid through an in-person course with AmeriMed. It was very important for me to take this course in case of an emergency were to occur I know exactly how to help your pet quickly without any hesitation. In this course I learned how to: • Assess pets for a medical emergency. • How to treat common medical emergencies. • Perform CPR on cats and dogs. • Safe handling, restraint and transportation of sick and/or injured pets. I respond fast when you send in a booking request. Pets are apart of our families and I will insure you that your pet will be in good hands during our booking providing you photos of your happy pups and cats. I care for your pets as if they were my own making sure that they are comfortable and have everything that they need during our visit. I am currently running my pet sitting business Full Time! I can provide services for your pet with a flexible schedule giving them love and care with full attention. Let me know if you would like to book every once in awhile while you are out of town or if you would like to book me to walk them regularly each week. I have my core clients that I regularly take care of weekly and monthly and I would love to welcome more clients if we are a good fit and our schedules align. Safety and communication are top priorities of mine besides making sure that your pet is happy and comfortable(: I will always keep your dog on a leash, careful with opening and closing doors, and I am cautious with other dogs passing by while out on walks. I will provide you a detailed report card each visit with plenty of photos so that you can feel at ease knowing your baby is safe and having a good time!
“Mary was amazing from the jump! I am new to the area and was worried about sending my dog off with someone I didn’t know but Mary immediately put me at ease. She asked questions, provided clarity, and wanted to make sure my dog and I were comfortable with everything. Would love to use her again!”
About: Kelli and I both grew up caring for our family dogs and when we got married (over 30 years ago), we of course had to find our Lucy. We found Lucy at the local shelter and she changed our lives. We loved her for 13 years and when she passed, she left a gigantic hole in our hearts. We are not ready to have another dog of our own but love to care for others. We travel quite a bit and don't want to board a fuzzy baby in a kennel. About 2 years after losing our Lucy, we started pet sitting for our friends and neighbors and it has been a blessing. It's like having grand kids. We have the joy of a pet for short periods of time and then they go home! We care for pets for overnights, up to 5 -7 nights if needed. We love and care for them like they are our own. Our home is very dog friendly, with mostly tile floors and furniture they can sit/nap on. Your pet will be spoiled while visiting with us. We own a small business and Kelli works from home 5 days a week. Joe works from home 2-3 days a week. The pets get spoiled with love and attention. We have a large fenced backyard and a great neighborhood to walk in. We will walk your pet several times per day and they will have unlimited in/out privileges.
“This is Louie’s second visit with Sarah. He was SO excited when we pulled up, his entire tail and lower half of his body was wagging and he was incredibly eager to go inside and play with the other dogs. And that is Louie’s review, which I believe would go something like this: “Mom, when can I go back and play?? Please??””
“This was a last minute booking & Stacey came through for me. The communication was great & Stacey took very good care of our baby Chloee. I like that she sent me photos & it looked Chloee was well taken care of & having fun. I will definitely use Stacey again. Thank you Stacey & family”
“Truly amazing! I had been looking for a sitter and Bridget was quick to respond and reassuring my pup would be well taken care of, and she was! She was also accommodating with times, which I really appreciated too. My dog had a blast there with her dog and I loved the updates with pictures I received. Would definitely recommend her to those in need of a sitter!!”
About: Ever since I was a little girl we have always had either cats or dogs. I have always been the one passionate about their care, even for friends when I watched their beloved furry family members. We recently adopted Chico, a MaltiPoo-Chihuahua , who’s only 4 month old. Often we have my in-laws little Mal-shi mix over for a few days, and the kids and the pooches have a great time always! My children adore them, and really every animal they are great with. I am currently a Homemaker,so I am able to take your pets out whenever they need to go potty, and walk them regularly whatever the schedule is for you. I can shower them with love all day as well, if that's what they prefer:) I have a fenced in backyard decent in size, so the fur baby's can freely get their exercise without having to worry about them getting loose.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since childhood, starting with helping family and neighbors whenever they went on vacation. I handled feeding, check‑ins, walks, and playtime, and I’ve continued caring for dogs ever since. With a lifetime of dog ownership, I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. One of my dogs is currently 17 years old. I am currently a stay at home Softball Mom. Along with my dogs, my other obligation includes taking care of my 12 year old daughter. I take her to practices and games and whatever else comes up. My dogs are fed twice a day and I take them out into our yard several times during the day. I have a fenced-in yard with a lot of room where your pet can safely play and exercise, and three friendly dogs to keep your pup company while it is away from home.
“Nelli and her family were super kind and loved our baby like their own. Plenty of pictures to keep us updated throughout the day! Thank you so much for taking care of our baby.”
“We were so pleased with Cody and Angel's care. They love staying with Amy and her doggy's. We are very happy . Amy is wonderful looking forward to using the service with Amy alot in the future.”
“Melissa was great with our pup. He loves her. She has two fun-loving and playful dogs that our dog really liked, as well. Melissa has a clean home and spacious backyard. We will definitely come back.”
“Absolutely blessed to have found Lisa and her wonderful family. When I dropped Gunner off on day 2 he was super excited to see Lisa - that’s a great sign! While this was my first time ever being away from my little one, I felt totally comfortable while Lisa kept me well informed with pictures and messages throughout Gunners fun time! I believe we’ve found our second family for Gunner and with that said, I will highly recommend Lisa.”
About: When you board with us, your pet gets more than a place to stay, your pet gets a family to be a part of. We are a family of 6 humans, 1 dog, and 5 chickens and 2 ducks. Your pet will have plenty of playmates! I am a single mother who works from home. I drop off and pick up my kids from school, and run the occasional errand, but usually I am home. I enjoy an evening walk with my chocolate lab and would love your pet to join us. I have a fully fenced, large backyard. I also have two extra crates if your dog is crate-trained and feels more comfortable sleeping in a crate. Pets being on furniture is discouraged, but rarely enforced. I have an SUV and am willing to transport pets if needed.
“Millie did great with my little one! He was immediately comfortable with her. This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous leaving him with a complete stranger. She provided me pictures of him enjoying his stay. When I return to this area I will definitely bring my Fudge to Millie instead of boarding him at home now that I know he has a safe, clean and comfortable home to stay in. I recommend Millie 100%!”
“Erica was very responsive to my inquiries and any questions I had. We needed a dog sitter for one day as we visited a national park. Erica was very friendly as she greeted us at her door. Her dogs were also equally enthusiastic to have a new playmate. Our pup went right in and did not look back as we left. She sent a cute photo midday of him taking a nap! This was our first experience with Rover and we would do it again!”
“Bud had a good day. This was his first doggy daycare, and it was a positive experience for Bud and his family. Haylie kept me updated throughout the day; she was kind and seemed to really enjoy taking care of him. It was nice for him to also have time with her golden doodle and child. Thank you Haylie”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Green Cove Springs commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
