Shelby took great care of our girl. We had a fluke with a house key and she was quick to assist us in finding a solution, definitely would recommend booking her.

I have had the pleasure of Madison watching over my (2) 🐶 🐶 while away. She does a great job interacting with them, walks, pictures and little narrative about her visit. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life and have always been the person my family and friends call when they need their pet taken care of. I have a senior dog who needs support getting around and requires medication so I am comfortable with animals of all ages and all needs! I’m currently a student with all online classes, so I have a very free schedule! I am able to come as often as needed at any time! It’s important for me to treat someone’s home with respect, as I would want the same done for me. It can be nerve wracking to let a stranger come in to your home and take care of your very loved pet, which is why I take rules and boundaries very seriously so you can have peace of mind.

“Chris did a great job checking in on my cats. Super reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Even my more reserved cat felt comfortable around him, which says a lot. He made the whole process easy and stress-free, and I’d definitely trust him with them again.

I reached out to Cat the night before our family’s Christmas trip, hoping and praying she could help us after our sitter canceled last minute due to illness—and she was an absolute Godsend! She responded to our inquiry promptly, and even though we didn’t have time for a meet-and-greet, I felt completely confident in trusting her with our fur babies. Cat was exceptional in every way. She communicated with us daily, providing updates and adorable photos of our cats, and followed the feeding and care instructions perfectly. She even went above and beyond by bringing in packages from our porch, which was such a thoughtful touch and not something we had expected. The best part? When we returned, our cats acted like we had never been gone! They barely cared we were home—just asking for dinner before retreating, perfectly content. This reassured me that Cat gave them all the love and attention they needed while we were away. We are so thankful to have found Cat on Rover and will absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter!

I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Christine provided for my 2 Standard Poodles. This was our first time ever needing to use a pet sitter that was not a family member, so I was completely unsure about how it would work out. The process was smooth and I was able to enjoy my event with peace of mind. 😊

I had Lori take care of my fur babies for 11 days. Let me tell you folks Lori is a phenomenal professional care giver for animals. She is an absolute angel. From the moments she got to my residence she documented everything my babies did. From how many times each went to the bath room, to playing outside, to eating and also told me they are all napping now. She did this documenting for each visit and she was coming to my residence 2 times a day. She took very good care for them. She would send me all she documented. She also sent me pics of my kids when they were playing outside and we’re inside before she left. Every day she came over she would clean their water bowl and give them fresh water. Lori even got my my mail and put it on my table and turned on my outside lights when it got dark and that also was documented. This is what a true professional animal loving worker she is. She is a blessing to take care of peoples animals and knowing your babies are in good hands and safe. Next time I need someone to take care of my babies Lori absolutely will be getting the call.

About: I’ve always been naturally inclined to understanding animals and have been empathetic towards them and people. I love helping and I have been pet sitting for over 4 years. I am very organized, punctual, caring, patient, a good communicator, and hardworking. I am also a diabetic so I am used to all different kinds of medical procedures and treatments! I can’t wait to share the love with all the social fur friends! I am currently working part time, and have the summer semester off from school, so I have a good amount of time to be able to help out and provide care. I also am good at planning and scheduling my time out well. I care for pets in my clients home by following the proper instructions provided, making sure it is a safe clean environment for the animal, communication with the client, and keeping watching on the animal to ensure its safety.

About: For 12 years I’ve had the honor of caring for my 86 lb. Pitty named Shadow, who enjoyed a very rich and healthy life. Shadow is now in doggy Heaven, but had the very best life any dog could ask for. Shadow was a very active & playful dog who enjoyed our daily runs, walks and playing fetch. I have a lovely pet friendly home and would love to share it with your fur babies when you are in or out of town. I work full time, but get home very early in time to run, walk and play with your dog. I do not work on Sat or Sun so we have all day to enjoy our beautiful Florida weather indoors or outdoors. My yard is fenced in and I typically go for daily walks with the dogs in my care. My home is lovely yet pet friendly and your dog would be welcomed as if it were their own home. I have multiple crates of varying sizes if your dog requires crating, but it is not mandatory while they are here. You can bring your own crate if your baby is more comfortable with what they already know. Also, they can use the potty as often as they like as I usually sit outside with them. My care is superior and my home is safe and friendly. Try me, I promise you will be more than satisfied. My fur babies comes first, everything else is second nature. I’m dedicated to giving the best care I can possibly give ensuring each baby is comfortable, happy, safe and get enough exercise through play and walks throughout the day. All dogs are kept separate if they come from different homes. They eat separately as well so as not to cause food aggression or anxiety amongst each other.

About: I have had dogs and cats in the house since I was a little girl and developed a love for animals from there! I have been caring for my dog, Teddy, since I was 14 years old, he is turning 12 this year! He is deaf and now a senior dog, so I have experience with hand commands & treating dogs gently and with extra care. He also takes medication twice daily, so I am well-versed in that aspect, too! :) I am currently full-time in school as a senior at USF so I have classes a few days a week. I will be available after those and I am available all other days! I am very experienced in all kinds of doggy activities, both tiring them out with playing, and cuddling and providing comfort :). I can adapt well to pet's needs and wants, and give them their space when needed, too!

About: I’ve had pets throughout my life. Most dogs approach me readily. I enjoy giving belly rubs and back scratching. Playing fetch in and outside and giving them attention I am retired and am available 7 days a week and am at home most of the day. I leave a sliding glass door and patio door open for them to go in and out freely I have a fenced back yard with plenty of room to run. I don’t have a a 80lb Black Lab under 2 years old that’s loves playing. I have Airbnb space and welcome pet guests along with the two legged variety. I have a pool for the swimmers and vinyl floors for cool resting spaces I’m retired from a career in accounting so dog care is the biggest part of my day. It give me flexibility to schedule meet and greets an can accommodate drop offs and pickups throughout the day and evenings I work hard keeping your pet safe. I separate dogs at their feeding times to avoid any territorial issues I allow the dogs as much outdoor time as possible I keep hard bones and ropes all around to keep them occupied. Most daycare dogs leave having spent a lot of energy and usually rest well when they get home I am fully retired so I’m home all day most days. If I go out to run errands I’m gone 1-2 hours. Should I be gone longer, I will check your practice that you use there. I’m outside a lot and will let your dog play as much as possible, I do have a covered patio with a tile floor so the can cool down and get water. I have a pool that I can block access when needed Pets sleep indoors and usually in my bedroom floor or my bed when there’s enough room. I allow them on my sofas and the sleep there as well. I feed them twice a day between 7-8am and 5-6pm and treats in between

I've used Ashley a total of 3 times now to take care of my baby. I was gone for 2 weeks on vacation out of the country back in October, then as soon as I got home, I immediately had to leave and fly out of state for a family emergency. She was able to help on late notice. She sends a ton of pictures and is communicative. Plus my sweet little cat likes her.
