“Alexis was absolutely wonderful and our large dogs love her! We recently purchased a vacation home in the area and were so stressed about care for them while we take trips to Disney. Alexis was the perfect solution and we are so grateful to have found her. Our neighbors love and use her also!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets of all kinds. I have been pet sitting for several years now. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping your pets company while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and comfortable :) I’m a student at UCF with a flexible schedule outside of classes. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting, and I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets attention and care. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to follow their normal routine and your instructions, and I’ll keep you updated with how they’re doing!

About: I've owned and cared for all types of dogs. I've walked and cared for large and small. I've experenced easy, well trained to the most challenging. I love them all. I'm retired, so I can easily work in walks, drop-ins, and sittings during my days. Most days I'm available after 10 A.M., but I'm flexible. I only do care at the pet parent's house, and I follow the guidelines the pet-parent sets because routines are important for consistency. I will always respect your home.

About: I’m a caring, dependable, and attentive pet sitter who will treat your pets like they’re my own! I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I’m patient with puppies who may need extra attention and consistency, and I’m also happy to provide a calmer environment for older pets. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! ’m a full-time college student, but all of my classes are in the early afternoon, which leaves me plenty of time in the mornings, evenings, and between classes to care for pets. I’m able to make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other specific needs. I make sure they get plenty of attention and love while also respecting their space and personality. I’ll also keep their area clean and make sure they have fresh water and everything they need while you’re away!

“She is the BEST! She comes over twice a week to play with my girls since I work long hours. She always sends me updates and lots of pictures for me. She cares so much about my pups and always makes sure they get to go potty and play at the park on her visits. I also love how she makes sure the ground isn't too hot before walking them and keeping me updated through the day. She is also extremely responsive and never leaves me waiting. I wouldnt want anyone else walking my girls!”

About: I grew up always having pets, as an adult when I didn’t have the circumstances to have my own pet, I started watching pets for all my friends. Bunnies, Dogs of all breeds, cats and more, I have watched and played with them all. I work for myself, for the most part from home, and I always love having a walking partner. Most of my work is very early in the morning or in the evening leaving me open most of the day for walks and playtime. I have a backyard, it is not completely fenced in but there is some nice grass. The house is pet ready with no choking hazards and laminate easy to clean flooring.

About: I started caring for pets of my own at 18. I have worked as a vet assistant/tech for over 6 years. I am certified in CPR/First Aid and have worked with pets of all ages. My ex-husband and I raised two dogs from puppies and have adopted/fostered many senior pets. One of our dogs is a tripod, one is epileptic, and one is incontinent, so I have special needs experience. I also have experience caring for donkeys, horses, reptiles, chickens, birds, and fish. I pride myself in being kind and patient in nature. It is of the utmost importance that pets in my care feels safe and secure. I work full-time as a vet tech at a vet clinic in Lithia. I just moved to the area from Southern Indiana. I can do visits on my days off or before/after my shifts. My fur babies are more than just out pets; they are our kiddos. Your babies will be treated as such, too! Before I moved, I provided both drop in and boarding services. At this time, I can only do drop ins. I have subscription to Bark Box and a HUGE basket filled to the brim with toys. We keep plenty of blankets and beds around the home. We have a large sectional that we lounge on and a fully fenced in yard. We also have an exercise pen as well as the following sizes of crates on hand: two large, one extra large, and one small. Let us know what arrangements you have in your home so we can best emulate them. We also have baby gates set up to keep pets separate if necessary, and still allows for free roam in a portion of the house.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program, so I am in an internship during the weekdays 9am-4pm. I can usually work around those times, and I try to be as flexible as I can, so please reach out even if my calendar says I’m not available! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! My mom had a rescue and I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve also spent time volunteering at dog shelters, which has helped me understand and connect even more deeply with our furry best friends. Whether your pup is full of energy and loves playtime, or prefers snuggles and a calm walk, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, kindness, and lots of belly rubs! I’m reliable, gentle, and truly passionate about what I do. I know how much dogs mean to their families, and I’ll care for yours with all the love and attention they deserve. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 💗😊 I’m home all day, everyday since I study from home. Taking care of pets is something I truly enjoy, and it fits perfectly into my routine. I have two super friendly Shih Tzus. They love meeting new furry friends and are great at keeping other dogs company! But if your pup prefers their own space, no worries I can easily keep them separated to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I don’t crate dogs unless it’s requested by the owner. I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, trips to the park, or just some relaxing cuddle time. My home is full of love, and your pup will be treated like part of the family!

“We hesitated writing a review because, honestly, we’re selfish and don’t want his popularity to skyrocket, making it harder to book him! But he truly deserves it more than anyone on Rover. He’s amazing! Quick to respond, always on time, no matter the weather—whether it’s raining or ridiculously hot. We trust him 100%. He even has the code to our front door, comes in, gets the dogs, makes them happy, and brings them back exhausted (which is no easy feat with our two energetic GSPs). So, long story short—book him! You won’t regret it.”

About: I picked up bride and grooms dogs from their homes and brought them to their weddings to get in the photos and ceremony while making sure the dog was taken care of and under control then brought back home. I work a rotating schedule so every week I have different availability, but I always have mornings off so I can cover any morning any time. Flexible and communicative. I am always careful of the food my pets consume and making sure they are fed on a schedule while also never too lonely or without playing for too long.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was 5 years old! I’ve taken my time to learn animal behaviors and I can assure your pet will be in good hands. I have had the chance of taking care of multiple animals! Ranging from dogs, cats, goats, pigs, many kinds of birds, reptiles, amphibians and many more. Ive also taken care of many animals of many ages in life. I am mostly always free! I am a student just earning money and experience to become a future veterinarian. I have a great passion for all things animal related so I hope to have the greatest opportunity to take care of your pets! (Hablo español) (I cannot stay overnight!) I am currently a student just earning money and studying. So I am almost always free! (unless my parents planned something.) If anything comes up I will always let you know! I have a dog of my own that is very friendly! If you'd like to socialize your pet I can help! I don't mind buying things to ensure your pets needs are met. (within reason and budget of course)

About: I worked in an animal shelter for about 2 years, I've had dogs and cats all my life. I also have some experience with lizards. I work night shift, usually from 5-2AM. I wake up around 6AM, to take my son to school. Afterwards I pretty much have the whole day to myself. I have one dog and two cats, they are my little fur babies. I respect pets and their space. I treat evey animal with the kindness and love they deserve.

“Aaron and Bethany were great. I naturally worried because I’ve never had to leave them before with someone I didn’t know but I worried for nothing. I would definitely choose them again.”

About: I have volunteered at animal shelters. I have experience working with “exotic” animals. There was not a moment in my life I did not have a furry or feathered friends. Hi! My name is Dustin, and I’m a dedicated animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, including strong breeds like American Bullies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I prioritize safety, patience, and positive reinforcement. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I aim to give you peace of mind while you’re away by providing attentive, reliable, and loving care. Your pet’s happiness, comfort, and well-being will always come first with me. I do not board any animals in my home. I know that every animals schedule is different and will follow any special instructions given. I am comfortable taking dogs for walks, car rides (if you are comfortable, of course) and love to play with your fur or feathered babies!

About: I worked at an animal shelter for a 4 years- fostering litters of puppies and older dogs at my home. I’m currently studying Animal Behavior & Digital Cinematography through online classes; I am a Certified Vet Assistant. I have 2 friendly active dogs of my own as well! I currently work at a rescue part-time, so I have experience with all breeds from all types of backgrounds! From anxious dogs to the high energy goofball’s I can handle it. I’m currently a part-time student and part time employee at a boarding facility. I go on runs, walks and hikes and would love to bring your pet for a stroll. I am also able to just hang out and spend quality time with your pup or cat if they have separation anxiety. I have a fenced yard and pool. If your animal needs to be kenneled, a crate will need to be provided. Three people in total live in my household, so someone will always be present to keep an eye on everything. Feeding will be done separate as a safety precaution and playtimes with my personal dogs will be monitored. I treat every animal as though they are my own; furbabies are exactly as the name suggests- babies!!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was young. I now work professionally at Animal Kingdom taking care of animals there. I have experience taking care of a variety of dog breeds. I have 5 years of training experience. I am available all day Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. I am available for walks as well as home visits. I can be flexible during my work week as well. Of course I have lots of play time with my animals but on top of that I’m always observing for any signs of illness or discomfort. I am very proactive on making sure my animals are healthy and comfortable 24/7.

“Had no issues with Samara! She was great! Our dog was walked, fed and happy. No sense of anxiety from my dog at all upon our return. Thanks for the help while my family spent time at the Disney parks!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, including family pets and those of friends, for the last 10 years. I now have two pups of my own! :) Family and friends have trusted me to feed, walk, bathe, administer medication to, and otherwise care for their dogs for many years. I love spending time with all the fluffy friends! I work from home and am generally flexible with my schedule! Just let me know, and we can find something that works for all of us. I have a fenced yard and my friendly own dogs can keep your fur babies company. We can also separate them completely if you prefer. We have two sides of the house with separate entrances to the backyard.
