“Christian helped us last minute when we had a family day trip planned for months but one of our dogs had emergency knee surgery and all of a sudden couldn’t be left alone. He was incredible!! Kind, attentive, and followed all directions to a T! We will be using him again 100%!”
“Mikayla is amazing! I recently found her on rover while searching for a new pet sitter. We met in person, and I booked her for overnight stay at my house. She was amazing!! Sent pictures and videos and took great care of the house and all my pets. Already booked her again for another trip!”

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 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.
“Christina was great with our dog and cat. She kept to their schedules and stayed at our place for several nights. You couldn't even tell she had been here. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
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.
“Great sitter! I’ve worked with Nikayla a few times now and she’s been great! I do not worry about the safety or well being of my pups when she’s taking care of them! I will continue to book with Nikayla! She’s great!”
“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!”
“Alison was great! It was our first time leaving our golden, and his first time spending even a night without his mom or dad. I work from home 99% of the time and he’s a true Velcro dog, following me everywhere. So I was very worried about how he’d do without me, and vice versa. Alison was great with him and made time to come for a few walks in the weeks before we left so she and Santo could get to know each other a bit. After we left she checked in with us and sent us photos and updates about our baby, which helped me worry less about whether he was feeling sad or abandoned. She was respectful of our home and even asked before signing into a streaming account we don’t have. And when we got stuck in nightmare traffic on I-4 on the way home from the airport, she stayed past the time booked for our stay so Santo wasn’t alone.”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals. From elderly at the shelter, huskies, labradors, pit bulls, doodles & puppies to cats, chameleons etc! I work remotely and have open availability for your pup. Lover of all breeds 🐕🦺 🐩 🦮 🐕 🐈 🦎 🐹 I am a corporate manager who works from home. I have 2 playful pups in the house (both females). One pup requires frequent potty breaks - at least every 30 minutes so outside time is no problem for me. I have a crate if/when needed. My pups sleep in the room with me uncrated and allowed on couch/bed. We keep our house cleaned and is puppy proof (crazy goldendoodle owner here). We do not have a fence but I’ve had huskies who tried to run away any chance they’ve had in the past, so am very careful with the door and leashes - even if the pup is trained off leash. Non smoke home, no kids or cats. Just 2 female pups who love other pups.
“It was so nice to have such a reliable dog sitter!! Bella was so comfortable with Felicia and so were we!! Highly recommend!! Thank you again for caring for our baby and our home! 🤦♀️”
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
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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. 🍀”
“We highly recommend Luciano. He handled our Weimaraner, who has separation anxiety, with extreme kindness, in a gentle, calming manner. He is truly a pro not to mention being a very pleasant, polite gentlemen. We would love to have him care for our Weim in the future, however, unfortunately we live on the east coast of Florida and he is in the Tampa Bay Area.”
“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!”

“Shannon was a fabulous dog sitter and dog walker for our dog. She was caring, friendly and loving. She treated our baby like her own. She was his favorite dog walker by far. Our dog would sit at the window waiting for Shannon to show up because he was so excited and loved her so much. She is so trustworthy. We felt so comfortable being away or at work and having Shannon take care of our pup. Couldn’t say enough good things! She’s a gem!!”
