About: Since I can remember as a little girl, I’ve always had a passion & drive to take care of animals and really interact & get to know them. Each has their own personality that are just so fun to explore. From as small as anoles and 3 week old kittens, up to as big as Great Danes & large parrots, I’ve cared for everything and I love getting to know each pet! Currently, my schedule is free! Looking to try to get into this full time, but anything dealing with animals is my focus! My schedule is very open right now and i’m open to anytimes! I will definitely get to know your pet first, go slow with them and just build a positive, playful rapport with them so they truly get to trust me. Anything you or your pet needs, please let me know and I definitely am so willing to make it happen! I care that your pet is comfortable and happy with me!!

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have 3. I have experience with small and big dogs, ranging from a yorkie to a golden retriever. I have taken care of different family members’ dogs and love to play and snuggle with them! I work part time and my days vary so I will make my availability around my work hours. When I work, it is between 7-3:30 on the week days so I could stop in the morning before a shift and right after if it works for you. When I do not work, I have full availability and can coordinate with you how often I should see your pet! I’m very flexible with the wants of the client! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority! I make sure your pets are always supervised, kept in a safe and clean environment, and cared for according to their normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I will gladly send pictures throughout the day if you want updates and see your pets!

About: If you have a puppy or a dog that needs a little extra help getting down the basics of sit, wait, leave it, come, or has trouble walking on the leash; i am your doggy savior! I do all my walks using the lose leash method, meaning the dog is more in "heel" then pulling or trailing behind. I love walking on hiking paths and trails as well as city and community walks. I always bring treats, water, and poop bags on my walks! I have an Australian labradoodle, Kingsley who is my service dog and loves other dogs! If you're interested in socializing your pup can have a playdate, he is a great friend. I can fully handle dogs of all sizes and ages and will follow all instructions left by you. I am trustworthy, reliable, and time and have a car, so I will be able to get to you, no problem. I work from home and love animals! Happy to play, train, and walk dogs. I have been pet sitting for 11 years and am very honest and loyal. I care for pets in clients home, walk, playtime, and offer puppy training. I thoroughly enjoy connecting with animal and supporting families. Please reach out if this seems to be a good fit :)

“We brought our 4 month old Sharpei with us on vacation and wanted to spend the day at an amusement park with our human kids. We couldn’t leave him alone all day, but luckily we found Andrea on Rover.”

“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes ranging from weens to rotties. I have experience training puppies up to 2-ish years on basic commands, crate training, and socialization. I dont mind spending time walking around the block, throwing the ball for extended periods of time, or lying next to them for a period of time so that they feel loved, heard, and cared for. I do not groom. but if doggo needs a bath or brushing, I can give them a bath and brush. Our family is a poodle family, so I know the importance of keeping up with brushing. I also have cat experience. Almost 10 years ago, the Cat Distribution System of the Universe granted me Tigger, my Maine Coon. Though her, I learned how much cats genuinely better our lives. I love all furbabies and will make sure that they are well cared for when you are away. I am a teacher by day and a pet sitter by night. I am available between the hours of 4pm and 7am, with fairly open availability on weekends and holidays. I can house sit during the week while I work in the school, coming back on my lunch and planning period to spend time with your fur baby, if you are comfortable with that, also pending distance from the school. Feel free to reach out. Since I live in an apartment, I am unable to take your baby to my home. Rest assured, I will make sure that your pooch is walked (pooped and peed), loved, fed, watered, medicated (if required/needed), and safe. My priority is your baby. I treat all furbabies like they were my own, so that means they come first on my visit.

“Sunnie was great! She provided detailed updates and lots of pictures. My cat was well taken care of!”

“I am so happy to found Caroline as my cat sitter! She made sure on her visit their litter was clean and the food and water was clean and full. She also send me some cute pictures of my cats and spend some quality time with them. I will definitely will use Caroline again. Also I’ll make sure my friends will use her for there fur babies. Thank you so much Caroline 😊”

Sissy R.

“I am super happy to have found her on Rover; she is communicative, responsible, and loving with my pets. She stayed in contact and answered every question I had about them. I will definitely hire her again—I hope she never leaves Rover! I recommend her 100%.”

About: Hi! I’m 22 years old, happily married, and a devoted dog lover living in Lakewood Ranch. My two pups, Apollo and Zora, are my best friends, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention, updates, and care throughout the day. 🐾❤️ Pet care is a big part of my daily life! As a work-from-home professional, I’m able to be around pets throughout the day and easily incorporate walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and lots of attention into my routine. I have two dogs of my own, Apollo and Zora, so caring for pets is already second nature to me. Whether it’s sticking to a specific schedule or providing extra cuddles and companionship, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. 🐾💕 I care for pets by focusing on consistency, comfort, and attention to their individual needs. In my home or a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner.

“Elisa was AMAZING! Thank you so much.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, which is one of the things that makes me different from other sitters. I’ve had a German Shepherd named Remi, two Australian Shepherds named Sullivan and Sailor, and a Pit Bull named Izzy, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs and personalities. Growing up with them taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and loving with every pet. I truly treat every dog like they’re my own and always want them to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Since being out of college and home for the summer, my schedule is very opened and flexible. I am available every day of the week and every time that is needed. I have a fenced in backyard, a spacious home for puppies to run around in and would be more than happy to crate your pet if needed.
