About: I have taken care of animals my entire life and I would love to help take care of your fur babies! I have taken care of my own animals as well as friends/ family’s animals since 13 years old. I currently have 3 fur babies of my own as well as an entire colony of feral cats that I take care of. I treat every pet like family and give them the care and attention they are used to when you are home. I have a very flexible schedule as a fitness instructor and typically work for a few hours a day with long breaks in between. Whether you need a long term pet sitter or someone to stop in for short breaks, I am available to help you! I will care for all pets as if they were my own. I have a deep love for all animals. I don’t just show up to check on your pet, I will make sure they feel safe, loved and happy while you are away. Your baby deserves more than just a quick walk.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. Unfortunately, my family dog recently passed away, which only deepened my appreciation for the love and companionship pets bring into our lives. I recently graduated from Florida State University and regularly volunteered at Champs Chance Rescue in Tallahassee, where I helped care for dogs of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also fostered a dog this past semester, which gave me valuable experience providing consistent care and helping a dog adjust to a new environment. I love spending time outdoors, going on walks, and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. As a nursing student, I'm responsible, dependable, and attentive to each pet's individual needs, and I treat every dog like they're my own. I’m currently focused on studying for my NCLEX to become a Registered Nurse, so I spend the majority of my time studying from home. I also work part-time as a Pilates instructor, which is typically only a 6–10 hour commitment each week, and my schedule is very flexible. Because of this, I have plenty of time to provide attentive care, companionship, walks, and playtime for your pet throughout the day. My home is a safe and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for your dog to feel comfortable. I have a pet ferret who stays in his cage, and I am able to crate your dog if needed. I also have a screened-in pool area and live in a gated neighborhood with lots of green space that's perfect for walks. Additionally, there is a local dog park just a short drive away for dogs who enjoy extra exercise and socialization.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have dog sat for many over the years! I’ve owned big & small dogs so nothing is new to me. Big believer in training dogs and that they are smarter than most people know. But overall I just want every pup to be loved and cared for in whatever ways the need! I currently work during the day but have a flexible schedule! I love taking walks after work in the evenings and during the day on my days off (Sunday / Monday) My dog is my everything to me but he doesn’t like kids. I have to be careful about that on walks. Every dog is different. Whether it’s on walks or in your own back yard I know dogs want to have fun and play but I’ll also ensure they stay safe. Whether it’s from other dogs, animals, running off or even from people- I understand that every dog is different and needs different care. I’ll pay attention and keep them safe, cared for and happy!

About: Hello! My name is Katie, and I am a highly educated, experienced caretaker of all types of animals. If it walks on four legs, more than likely I've taken care of them at some point haha! My journey with animals began when I was just 8 years old. Now at 23, my home is filled with love thanks to my wonderful pets: Elita, my loyal five-year-old German Shepherd 🐕, and Bumblebee, my overly adorable six-year-old calico cat🐈. I attended Auburn University (before I transferred to a cheaper school), where I majored in Animal Science and was an active member of the equestrian team (hunt seat). I was also a member of their Eventing team! My passion for animals isn't just limited to my own pets; I've dedicated countless hours to understanding and caring for them. I interned under many eventers, worked under several veterinarians, and gained many years of invaluable experience. I have lived in California, Colorado, Wisconsin, Florida, Alabama and Georgia, and each state I lived in gave me more and more experience with many different kinds of animals. Beyond my technical training, I have volunteered at a service dog training non-profit, which gave me a unique perspective on the incredible bond between animals and humans. My time working at numerous animal shelters has further fueled my dedication to providing the best care for all creatures. I also have a special fondness for birds, especially macaws (coolest birds I have ever been around for sure). My current job has a hybrid schedule, and I work from home most days, so my schedule is quite flexible. This allows me to provide consistent and attentive care to your pets. Every animal holds a special place in my heart, and I understand how important they are to you. Whether your family includes dogs🐕, cats🐈, birds🦜, or any other type of animal, you can trust that they will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own critters. I look forward to meeting your beloved pets and ensuring they are happy, safe, and well-cared for while you're away! I currently live in a very peaceful house with my dog and cat. My house has nature trails, several ponds and paved walking trails. If your cat were to stay with me overnight, they'd stay in my large bathroom with a large bed, litter box, and water fountain. Dogs will be kept in my dog's crate overnight and let out for the last time at 10:30pm and again at 6am.

“Thank you very much for your great service! I hope wasn't too difficult with such hot days. I'll look at your availability 'cause I might need your help again soon😀”

About: Hi there! I’ve been on rover for over a decade and just reinstated my profile after selling my gift basket business and becoming a full time stay at home dog mom! Walking brings me so much joy and what could be better than having your pup by my side while we get our steps in together? I have cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes (and am a former horse girl) so I feel right at home walking strong dogs or those with big personalities. Happy to learn about and honor your personal preferences for your pup, whether that involves heavy socialization with other pups or 1:1 human/dog time! If you are staying at a pet friendly Disney hotel, I am very familiar with the resorts and would love to do drop ins and/or walks for your pup while you enjoy the parks! My boyfriend and I rescued a (born) deaf 2 year old mini-Aussie, and we have put a lot of time and effort into learning about dog behavior training and animal psychology to better serve her. I’ve attended trainings with The Dog Whisperer (Caesar Milan) and various local trainers/clinics. Additionally, my undergrad degree is psychology based and I grew up working with animals, both of which have given me a strong skill base in animal behavior and personalized care. Dogs are my full time gig, so your pup will have constant love and attention from me, and a companion in our dog Spec (if desired). We believe in going on long walks, exploring all the sights and smells of the dog park, and resting up on our favorite pillow or dog bed. I have been an animal owner my entire life, working with and owning horses, chinchillas, hamsters, fish, and dogs. Prior to adopting our mini-Aussie, I have owned 2 Great Pyrenees, 2 Chinese Cresteds, 4 Papillions, a Teacup Papillion, and several other pups earlier in life. I feel confident working with different breeds and temperaments, and am happy to provide as much or as little exercise and attention as your dog needs to thrive. I am happy to meet with you/allow you to see our space before your pup's overnight stay, and can provide references upon request. We want you to feel comfortable and relaxed knowing that your pup is in good hands! While you are away, I can provide phone, email, and text communication (as much or as little as you want!) to make sure you know your pup is safe and happy. About this sitter: We moved to Florida from New York/Pennsylvania after working for and studying at Penn State University. I love to visit Disney, try out new cuisines, and play with my favorite girl Spec (our deaf mini-aussie). I love the Florida weather and try to spend as much time as possible outside playing in the sunshine! Why I love dog sitting I have been working with dogs (and other animals) my entire life! I grew up with trained therapy dogs and taught therapeutic (horseback) riding to student with physical and emotional disabilities. My mother and I visited the VA and local nursing homes with therapy dogs, and I became quite familiar with daily life with pets. I am always working to learn more by reading training books, watching Ceasar Milan, and taking training classes. Meet my pets Spec - a now 15 year old mini Australian Shepherd About my yard We live in a townhouse with a (small) fenced in backyard. Our development has plenty of walking space along with a walking trail and lots of grass! We love going for walks and runs - whatever your pup likes! The addition of two new dog parks (large and small) has also increased opportunities for outdoor play if you choose to have me bring your pup to our neighborhood! My experience administering medication I took Pharmacy Technician and Emergency Medical Technician courses and grew up in a medical household (father was a doctor) so I feel comfortable around medicine. I have administered shots and medications to horses and dogs over the past 20 years. I am a full time stay at home dog mom after selling my gift basket business in 2022. My husband also works from home, so there is always someone with eyes on our own (born deaf) pup Spec! I am a walking enthusiast, and love any excuse to get more steps in so if your dog loves a long or short walk we will get along great! We have a small fenced in back patio where dogs can potty off leash, and inside we have a dog friendly environment where your fur baby will receive lots of care and attention! Our neighborhood has nice walking trails so if outdoor time is desired we have options!

About: I grew up on a farm with 5 dogs. When I moved to the US, I got my own puppy (a golden retriever), and I trained her myself. I foster dogs and cats from nearby shelters. I always make sure to follow instructions for a seamless transition for your animal! I have a dog myself. When my family and I got her, I signed a contract to take care of her myself. She is now almost 8 years old, always full of joy and in great health. I love to play with dogs, and get them tired and ready to take a nap! I am ready to clean after dogs if needed (in the house and outside), and take care of them no matter their needs. I want you and your pet to feel taken care of.

About: I am available during the daytime, evening and nighttime! I am home for the summer from the University of Kentucky and would love to help you out with any pet sitting! It is important to me I build a trustworthy and positive relationship with your fur babies. I have had a dog since I was 6 years old and just recently in college I have trained and raised 4 service dogs that are now placed with little children that have a disability! I am more than happy to help you out, please feel free to reach out! Since I am home for the summer, I am super flexible. I have my own car and a very open schedule! I am available Mon-Thursday and some weekends depending on the care the client needs! I make sure I build a strong relationship with the clients and their fur babies! I know how important it is first hand to have someone you trust watching your loved one, so I make sure to have a positive, fun and loving relationship with each and every pet I am offered to babysit!

About: Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, not just something I do on the side. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and regularly volunteered at OCAS for 3 years after college, so I’m very comfortable with all personalities, breeds, energy levels, and routines, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I’m highly attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they’re my own. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort so your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I currently have full availability, meaning I can match your pets routine schedule as close as possible, so they continue with their routine and feel comfortable. I treat your home as if it was my own and when I leave, I ensure that it’s put in order and looks like I was never there.

About: I am an animal lover, full of energy, and excited to take care of your pet! I have volunteered at animal shelters for more than 5 years, as well as owning two adorable cats! Currently I am completely free since it is Summer. I am available all hours of the day and every day of the week to look after your pet! I am also available on holidays. I love to play with the cats and give them treats, but will also respect the cat’s personal space if they are shy or uncomfortable. I always look to match the energy level of the pet and care for them in a way that keeps them happy and comfortable!

About: I have watched dogs, cats, houses, and even chickens! I have almost 10 years of paid experience walking, watching, and house/pet sitting. I am friendly, reliable, and organized and have multiple repeat sitter requests. I also have experience of watching/walking multiple pets at once. I have grown up with pets my entire life and I am very comfortable around cats and dogs. I'd love to help make your life easier whether it be daily check ins or just filling in while you are out of town. I am currently working part time, so I usually work 4 days a week and have off 3 days. On my off days I am available all day. When working, I can be available early mornings and most late afternoons/evenings. Working or not, I can be a available for house sitting or pop in visits. I frequently monitor the food/water levels as well as checking the litter box multiple times a day. I like to get a minimum of 2-3 walks in a day when i’m working. When I’m off, I’m available for longer walks or dog park visits. I always make sure to leave my client’s house cleaner than when I arrived and make sure the animal’s needs are fully met.

“Maestro and Maggie Mae really enjoyed their time with Samantha. Of course, the first couple of walks they were a bit anxious with a new human, but by the third walk they were both waiting by the front door for her arrival. Samantha is a sweet young woman, who really seems to love her gig as a walker. We heartily recommend her, and most importantly, will reach out again for her services when required. Thanks Samantha”

About: I own multiple pets and am willing to work with any pet. I also work at Disney so flexibility is very important but I am part time there I'm 25 years trying to make some extra cash. A lot of people call me an animal whisperer. Animals mean so much to me and I will not be cruel. I will follow all directions given. I'm not in college right now so my schedule is very flexible. I am not allergic to anything. And can deal with anything. I love all dogs and cats. I am easy to work with and won't put up a fuss for any of your instructions. I am good at giving medications as well. Animals deserve the best care so I am willing to achieve that goal. I enjoy playing with cats and dogs. A few little scratches don't bother me.

About: I stand out because I truly treat every pet like family. I have hands-on experience volunteering at animal shelters, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including nervous rescues and high-energy pups. I’m patient, gentle, and quick to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just providing comfort, I bring calm, consistency, and affection. I also understand the importance of routines and know how to care for senior dogs who need a little extra love and attention. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities—and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and notes while you're away! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for throughout my week. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon play sessions, or cozy evening check-ins, I build my schedule around giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m naturally active and love being outside, so walking dogs or visiting pets is a part of my regular routine that never feels like work. Because I’ve volunteered at shelters, I’m used to working with different pet personalities and needs—from energetic puppies to older dogs who move at a slower pace. I’m flexible, dependable, and always happy to adjust my day to fit your pet’s routine so they feel safe and cared for even when you’re not home. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet comfortable by sticking closely to their usual routine—whether that means feeding schedules, walk times, or favorite spots to nap and play. I always make sure they feel safe and cared for by giving them lots of affection, positive attention, and a calm presence. I also keep your space tidy and treat your home with respect. If caring for pets in my own home, I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with cozy spots for rest, safe areas for play, and lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure they have everything they need—fresh water, clean feeding areas, bathroom breaks, and companionship. I send regular photo updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I focus on creating a loving, stress-free experience that feels just like home.

“Reece was punctual and very attentive with my dog. She made sure he was comfortable, gave him a treat, and refreshed his water. I really appreciated her care and attention to detail.”
