“This was our first time using rover, and we are hooked! We needed a dog sitter for our two large dogs and Katie was great!! I am so happy and will definitely hire her again.”
“Jamie agreed to watch our babies after the previous sitter could not accommodate us for our short trip to see our sailor come back into port. She arrived on time, changed her drop-in time on the second day when our plans changed and provided excellent pictures and communication, to include an issue unknown to us, which we’ve been dealing with since returning. She followed our detailed instructions, to the letter and gave medication to our twenty year old princess. We highly recommend her services. Thank you Jamie!”
“Taylor did a great job. Would recommend and hopefully use her again in the future.”
“Katrina was the best pet sitter for my 5 cats. She was patient and sweet and they warmed up to her quickly. Katrina would sit with and spend time with each cat and I enjoyed getting the daily pics and updates. She went above and beyond keeping everything tidy and cleaned up. Katrina even watered my plants and brought my mail into the house. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to hire a sitter. I know I’ll be using her in the future!”
“Lenetta is very caring and wonderful with cats. We came home from vacation to see two very happy and relaxed kitties because of her wonderful care. Lenetta is prompt and reliable and I highly recommend her services.”
“Ashley did an awesome job watching our cat, going above and beyond. I’d highly recommend her.”
“Jennifer is great with my dog! Molly gets excited when she arrives. She is very flexible and does everything I ask her to do. She even is helping me to train her to know her name and to come when she is called.”
“Tina was amazing! She took care of Martin like her own. We had her do a few drop ins while out of town and she kept us in the loop the entire time. She even offered to check on our pup when our flight was delayed. Tina made me feel like I could put my phone down and not worry if Marty was going to be taken care of. I definitely recommend Tina for your pet sitting needs.”
“Megan did a fantastic job watching both our pup, Yori, and our cat, Tilly. She was always punctual and kept great communication throughout the entire time. Both pets were well taken care of and were happy to have someone so genuinely caring to spend their time with. I highly recommend Megan for pet sitting while youre out of town! I definitely will be using her services again.”
“Candace helped us to feel better about leaving our Bailey girl for the night. She visited her twice and gave detailed updates each time. She is thorough and very dependable!”
“Brianna did a wonderful job taking care of our five babies while we were away. She took a ton of great photos and was even able to coax my most shyest cat out for a pet. We highly recommend her services and will request to book her again.”
“Shari was AMAZING!! I felt very confident leaving our fur babies in Shari’s care. Her updates are always so personal & I know my pets are getting such love while I’m away from home.”
“Nola was great. She met my animals twice and they loved her (which was my determining factor). I've never left my animals with someone i did not know which has put a hindrance in any vacations, but she did a great job. My cat is diabetic and she gave him his shot twice a day w/o any issues. She checked in and sent us pictures and came home and the dogs & cats were happy. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve had and cared for all species of animals my whole life. From lizards, to chickens, to even water buffalo. I cannot imagine my life without animals I work from home so I can make my own schedule. I have my own critters to take care of so I’m always out and about At home I take care of my critters 2x a day. My horses I only have to feed once a day but I still drive by to get my eyes on them. I like to see my animals and make sure everyone is ok at least 2x a day
“Samantha was awesome…even with a very huge hiccup the first day. Would highly recommend.”
About: I have cared for neighborhood pets for many years. (dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamster) I enjoy caring for pets of all ages and will do whatever I can to help them in the stage of life they’re currently in. I currently work full time but I am available on evenings and weekends. If an early morning feeding is needed I can do that also. I currently do not keep pets at my home but am happy to drop by your place to do play time, walks and feedings for your pets.
About: I'm a US Marine Vet that has always loved dog and all animals since I was a kid, dogs and snakes were always my true loves but now it's just dogs for me. I have a soft spot for pit bulls just so long they aren't mean and get along with small dogs. I believe dogs are one of God's greatest gifts and I sometimes believe humans do not deserve dogs because of how pure hearted and loyal they are to us. I have been taking care of dogs my whole life and I'm 49 now. Dogs need love and someone to play with and other dogs to play with, that's why I have 6. I have worked with a few rescues in the past mainly sharing dogs for rescue, fostering and a few worked with me when my father died to rehome all my dads dogs. I'm looking for people that have dogs that want to be outside and play for doggy day care. My services at the moment are for doggy daycare for outside dogs in a big fenced in yard with other dogs until I can get my kennels and building set up. We have 10 acres with about 3/4 acre that is fenced in that 3 of my dogs stay, the other 3 live inside. I work from home and I'm a homebody and don't really leave the house unless I absolutely have to. I do have to go to the VA or other appointments occasionally or to do some shopping but i'm here prob 95% of the time. I keep my pets watered and fed, walked as needed. I play with them and we entertain each other. If any storms come up I move the outdoor dogs into the garage in kennels where it's safe.
“Mr. Scott was great with a fur babies! He came to our home, took care of them, played with them, and really helped us out during a difficult time for our family. Thank you so much! I would recommend Mr. Scott to anyone needing care for their pets, hands down he’s a great caregiver!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10. I have had dogs and cats as pets. I have bathed, fed Walked watered administered meds and played with dogs and cats. Fur-babies love me becuase they know I am a teddy bear for those puppy dog eyes. I work part time but make my own hours. So I can work around any schedule. I do travel occasionally but only a weekend here and there. I care for pets when visiting clients homes by checking on their wellbeing first and foremost. Next I let them out to potty. I play with them, walk them and then feed them. Ensure they have fresh clean water and give meds if needed. I clean up any areas that might be soiled. Make sure pet dishes are cleaned before refilling if needed. I take pics to send to owners of their furbabies. I sit with the animals and give them treats if allowed and brush them. I check kennels and litter boxes and make sure they are clean. I double check everything before leaving to ensure all the furbabies are happy and safe before leaving and ensure doors are locked behind me.
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs and other farm animals throughout my life. I am able to handle large dogs and small dogs and multi animal households. I have experience given insulin shots, medication, and even bathing your pet if necessary. I work for myself and have an open schedule and can plan around your animals needs. Available for morning, noon time or evening care. Flexible for your convenience. I have a fenced in yard 1.25 acres. We play fetch and have tug of war games. Fresh water always available. My dog is always in a leash if not at home.

Brian J.
“Every time I come to Florida Brian keeps my dog because the place we stay doesn’t usually allow pets. He always goes above and beyond to care for and to make my Samson feel like he is family and one of his own. Probably spoils him too much and he even sends him home with a treat bag when we head back to South Carolina. I never have to worry when he is there and he keeps me updated everyday on how he is doing.”

Scott was an excellent sitter. He took care of my babies and even though they were skittish, he took photos of the fresh food and water and notifies me off any changes. He also went above and beyond by doing little things like bringing in packages and watering my plants.
