About: As an enthusiastic and dedicated dog walker, I bring joy, exercise, and companionship to your furry friends. A lifelong dog lover, I've had dogs since I was a kid and deeply understand their needs and behaviors. With a commitment to their well-being, I ensure every walk is safe, fun, and tailored to your dog's needs. Trust me to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. Aldo I’m a freelance dog trainer! Pet care is a central part of my routine. Each day, I schedule specific times for walking, playing, and caring for dogs to ensure they get the exercise and attention they need. My weekly plan includes regular walking sessions and any necessary feeding tasks. Growing up with dogs, pet care is my passion. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment for pets, ensuring they have plenty of space, toys and a cozy resting area. I maintain a consistent feeding and exercise schedule and provide lots of love and attention. In clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions to maintain the pets' routines and comfort. I ensure the pets are fed, walked, and cared for according to their usual schedule, providing personalized attention to meet their unique needs.

“Great experience! It was our first time requesting their service for our elderly dog and cat as our normal pet sitter was unavailable. It was very apparent how much they cared about the pets and would put in extra effort to make them feel safe and comfortable. Our dog was having a rough couple days and Vadim was so patient and caring during every visit. Thank you so much for doing such a great job and making us feel like our pets were in good hands while we were away!”


“Abby was incredible! She came on time & took great care of puppy! She updated with photos and was very responsive, would trust her anytime with our pretzel! 10/10”


“Sabina loved Nicole from the meet and greet! I got lots of pictures from the drop-ins and Nicole was super communicative. I also really appreciated her making sure everything was clean before I got home!”


“Amazing pet sitter! I trusted her implicitly, she has a very kind, warm presence. I received picture and comments every day and had no doubts that my cat was well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend and will 100% have back!”


“Cherie is the best cat sitter! She gave amazingly detailed reports on how my cat was doing and how he was eating and interacting with her. I felt so good knowing my brand was in the care of Cherie! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a drop in visitor for your pet:)”


About: I’ve had my dog for almost 7 years and now have two dogs. I grew up with dogs and they are my passion. Im a nurse getting my masters and have some time to take care of other fur babies. I am committed to taking care of all types of dogs of all ages. I currently have some weeks off of clinical rotations so I am home most of the time. Afterwards I will be gone about 2x a week. I live in an apartment, but I take my dogs out on regular walks every few hours. I do not crate train my dogs and they are allowed to go on furniture.

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


“Thank you for the great feedback!:)”


“Jessica took great care of Roxy while we were away. She was loving and caring. Jessica sent photos everyday and spent time doing Roxys 2 favorite things. Treats and brushes. I will be booking Jessica next time we go out of town!”


“Jessica accepted a last minute request to check in on my cat daily over the holiday weekend. Leaving your pet is incredibly stressful, but I definitely felt at ease knowing she was there to check in on him. She was great at communicating. Thanks again for coming through on such short notice!”


About: Hey there, we are Rod & Ros! We both had pets our whole lives, both of our grandparents are veterinarians, so we grew in a household full of love and knowledge about pets. My girlfriend has been a pet sitter since she was in middle school she took care of senior dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, turtles, fishes and parrots. I myself have also been a doggy sitter several times for friends and family. We both just love petsitting and that is why we decided to join Rover. My girlfriend works part time from home and I work at night so we both have plenty of time during the day to play and enjoy time with your pet. We have two Australian parakeets, when there are no other pets around, we love to free them inside the apartment so that they can stretch their wings. When we have pet guests we keep them in their cage and if the guest is not comfortable with them we keep them in a separate room. We work regular office hours Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, so during weekdays we only offer walk service or drop-inn visits after 5:30pm. On weekends we have full availability for both walks and drop-in visits. We love to make your dog or cat feel special and loved on the short time of our visit or walk, we would try to connect with your pet and give him/her all the love we can, for this reason we only walk one dog at the time and we do only 1 drop in visit during weekdays. Your special furry friend deserves respect and value time, during our walk or visit, we will always pay attention to what they make, making sure they stay hydrated not overexposed to high temperatures , we will be patient and do as many stops as they need to make.

About: Dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family, and I’ve been loving and caring for them like that my whole life. I’ve had my own dog for 8 years and have been the go-to dog walker, sitter, and snuggle provider for friends and neighbors since I was a kid. I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your pup, and I treat every walk like it’s my own dog on the other end of the leash. Whether your dog is high-energy or more of a sniff-and-stroll type, I’ve got them covered—with patience, love, and lots of tail wags. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because it’s genuinely what I love to do. After taking care of my own animals each morning, I’m fully available throughout the day to dedicate time, attention, and affection to other people’s pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company while their humans are at work, I’m here to help give them the happiest, most loved day possible. I treat every pet like my own and find so much joy in making sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible—whether that means sticking to specific walk times, feeding schedules, play styles, or cuddle preferences. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so I can show up for them in the way they need. My goal is always to make them feel right at home, even when their favorite human is away.

“Mara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.”


About: Hi! I’m Cameron, a lifelong dog lover who’s grown up with three pups by my side, big and small, and knows just how much joy (and care!) dogs need. Whether it’s a playful stroll or a calm companion walk, I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own family. You can count on me for safe, loving, and attentive care—because your dog deserves the best! I’m a local actor here in South Florida, currently rehearsing West Side Story in the evenings from 6–10 PM. My days are wide open for dog walks, playtime, and cuddles, and I’m also happy to do overnight stays after rehearsal. I’d love to keep your pup company and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and right at home. I follow their routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—so they stay happy and comfortable. I give them lots of attention, affection, and always treat them like part of the family!!
