“From day one Christian was professional and willing to work with our not so friendly boy. We got hourly updates with pictures on our animals. One of our animals got sick while we were away and Christian was great with extra cuddles and provided what was needed. We had no worries or hesitations about our kitties and dogs while we were away.”
“Mikayla did an outstanding job taking care of our three Boxer dogs! She was responsible, thoughtful, kind and dependable. We will absolutely use her again to take of our pets. We came home to a clean home and happy dogs after a week in Cancun. We had such peace of mind knowing Mikayla was taking great care of our dogs! Thank you, Mikayla!”
“KENDRA IS AMAZING!!! She has great people, pet, and communication skills! Her and her husband are great company- all of us love them! 🦔🐶 10/10 would recommend booking with Kendra!”
About: Pets are like family. No two ways about it!! They give us their undivided attention. Loyalty and love. So why, shouldn’t we do the same? Being avid animal lovers, nothing would make us more happier to give your pet a comfortable stay - a home away from home with loads of love, fun and pampering so u can go ahead and enjoy a day of work or holiday being assured that your fur baby is being well looked after!! I’m currently not working! I’ll have time to fit your fur baby in my agenda. Also weekends depending on schedule most likely open looking forward to hearing from you. I have a beautiful chocolate Labrador named Isabella she is so excited to meet new friends to play in our dog park we also take walks in are beautiful lake view apartment. I’m usually available most of the time, I’m a stay at home mom and wife so I’m usually always with my fur baby and my cats. I have a screened in porch so they can enjoy some sunshine ☀️ I also have a gate just in case we have a runner.
About: Hi! I just moved from New York to Florida and I have 8 years of experience in dog walking and pet sitting, with a strong background in providing loving, reliable care. I worked for a company Suburban Pets and on my own and now I am starting on Rover. My services include daily walks, playtime, feedings, cleaning, and administering medications as needed. I also have hands-on experience from volunteering at a senior dog rescue and am proud to have adopted three senior and disabled dogs of my own. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, compassion, and attention to their individual needs. Pet care is a full-time commitment for me and an essential part of my daily routine. I’m fully dedicated to providing reliable, consistent care and am available any time I’m needed—weekdays, weekends, and holidays. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily accommodate a variety of needs and last-minute requests. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always start by getting to know each pet’s routine, behavior, and any specific needs or health concerns. In the home, I maintain a clean, pet-safe environment. I follow all instructions closely, keep communication open with regular updates, and treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I give my own. Whether I’m at my home or yours, I create a calm, reliable environment where pets feel safe and loved.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages for over 12 years. I love getting to spend time with animals and get to know their personality. I’ve worked with animals from a few months old into their senior years. I am a full- time teacher but have most evenings free. Weekends, evenings and breaks away from school will be amazing time for taking care of pets. I have cared for many peoples pets in their own home. I have done over nights or coming two to three times a day, depending on the customers comfort.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid—everything from German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and Great Danes. I’ve administered medicine, handled special feeding routines, and taken care of elderly animals with extra needs. I’ve also pet-sat for family friends, neighbors, and multiple households over the years. I currently live with cats I care for full-time, and I’m happy to help with additional tasks like watering plants, taking out litter, or feeding fish. I’m great at following specific instructions and keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently between jobs and going back to school in the fall, which means I have full availability all summer long. My schedule is extremely flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet-sitting needs—whether that’s regular check-ins, overnights, or last-minute help. I live locally in Mulberry and often help out at my family’s pharmacy, but otherwise my time is yours! I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I always follow the pet’s routine to keep things consistent—mealtimes, walks, medications, and even preferred toys or napping spots. I’m respectful of the client’s space and clear about communication, sending regular updates and checking in if anything seems off. I make sure pets feel safe by being patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs—whether that’s quiet time for a nervous cat or extra play for an energetic pup. Trust is everything, and I take that seriously from day one.
“Sia did a great job with my dog. Thank you!”
“Mickey is awesome! My fur baby lives her. She takes her on long walks and spends quality time with her. She will always be my first choice sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family dogs since I was 15. I am a college student, looking to spend some time with loving pups! I am a full time worker from 8am-6pm I do have a lunch break on Monday and Thursday and I leave at 1pm on Friday’s. I am available anytime on Saturday and Sundays I am in an apartment complex but have a vehicle and I am willing to take them to dog parks or walk around some nearby areas
“Alison cared for my senior diabetic dog, staying in our home for a week while we were out of the country. He has multiple medical needs, including twice daily insulin injections and 3 types of eye drops twice/day. She also had to deal with his reluctant appetite and fluctuating blood sugar. In other words, he's sweet, but he ain't easy. She took good care, stayed in communication with us (working with the time differences), and knew when to ask questions. I felt very secure leaving Bear in her care and will certainly call on her again.”
“April watched our gaggle of pups when we had to unexpectedly go out of town. She did an amazing job with them, was responsive, and I felt at ease knowing she had a handle on our crew. We have a puppy and an older guy needing medical care and she handled both so well. I would definitely recommend April!”
“Felicia was so great watching our dog! She offered to do a meet and greet beforehand which was really helpful in making me more comfortable with having her in our home and seeing that our dog was okay with her. Felicia took pictures and some videos everyday, and sent them to us. She took Abby on a few hikes/walks and I really appreciated her involvement in doing that. I totally recommend Felicia! We’ll book her again!”
“I hired Rachelle to house sit with my Corgi for Labor Day weekend. She kept me updated throughout the weekend and sent lots of pictures. I would love to use her again in the future!”
“TJ was awesome! Great communicator and handle our small canine/feline herd in spectacular fashion. Really put our mind at ease he was watching over our homestead. He was very respectful and we returned to a clean orderly home.”
About: I’m an animal lover who enjoys playing and cuddling with fur babies. I’m open to meeting the individual and unique needs of every animal I care for. I enjoy creating my own schedule and prioritize care into my routine to soothe, comfort, entertain and provide basic needs for every animal in my care. My availability are weekends and afternoons. Routine schedules for feeding, potty and play time are ideal so I and the animals know what’s coming, if you have a routine set I will gladly flow with what’s already in place.
“Ashley was amazing! 😍 She was extremely patient with my dog that has anxiety issues. She took time to let him get comfortable with her. In addition to that, she was very thoughtful, and has sent messages throughout the whole process, from her ETA to all of the dog related updates. 🍀”
“Joy was wonderful to my two pups! She kept consistent communication with updates and pictures. She kept my home nice and clean and treated it like it was her own. We will be re booking her! ❤️ thanks Joy!”
“Mandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him — I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home 😅. Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously don’t think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You won’t regret it!”
“Jasmine is an amazing dog sitter. She is a true animal lover and treated my dog like he was her own. She sent me plenty of pics and videos and I never felt out of touch with what my Pug’s day was like. It was so nice to not have to worry about my baby while I was away. I will definitely use Jasmine again in the future. She is a true gem.”

“Shannon took wonderful care of our dog for several years, until her move to Florida. She is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. We used a lockbox and had no concerns about her having access to a key for our home. She made herself available for last minute emergencies and took excellent care of our dogs. We recommend her and would hire her back without hesitation if/when she returns to NY.”
