“Izabela was WONDERFUL with our VERY energic puppy! She took her out to play many times a day and was able to handle her excitement! Izabela sent us updates and pictures every day, multiple times a day! She was extremely professional when we met, she followed up the day before to confirm everything, and was on time. I cannot recommend her enough! We will definitely be booking again!”

“Maya was a fantastic sitter for my dog. She spent multiple nights over and had no problems! She constantly sent pictures and updates. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. Thank you so much again!”


“Loved the communication we had throughout the day! Always was quick to respond with photos and information. Our pup was happy to be safe at home and Bridget was respectful of our space. We will 100% book her again!”

“Thanks again for taking care of my babies while I was gone! I trust you completely, and it’s such a great feeling knowing I don’t have to worry when they’re with you. You’re amazing — such a good soul and beautiful inside and out. ❤️”

About: With over 7 years of hands-on pet care experience, a lifelong love for animals that started in childhood, and a family that shares the same passion, I bring patience, trust, and genuine compassion to every pet I care for—making me a reliable, attentive, and loving pet sitter and walker your furry family can truly feel safe with. 🐾💛 I pet sit and babysit for my aunt and she has a baby goat and a child I take care of as well for my sister when she’s out, I will pet sit her dog and hedgehog, I love it! I care for pets by following their normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable, whether in my home or a client’s home. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, walked and exercised as needed, given plenty of attention and playtime, and always kept in a clean, calm environment. I closely monitor their behavior and health, respect any special instructions, and treat every pet with the same care, patience, and love I would give my own. 🐾
About: I have loved all pets since I was little when my grandpa was a vet. I’ve always had dogs growing up and absolutely love taking care of all of them and I’m always looking for a new furry friend I’m currently working part-time and I always have extra time just laying around so I wanted to give myself a little something to do and something that I enjoy! I have 2 dogs of my own and they have a massive yard to run in and absolutely love going on walks that I take them on everyday and I would do the same and care for your pets like they are my own.
“We had a wonderful experience with our house and pet sitter from Papi House by Sat by Rose. From the beginning, communication was great and we immediately felt comfortable leaving our home and dog in her care. Our pet was well loved, happy, and clearly received lots of attention while we were away. The house was also kept clean, organized, and exactly as we left it. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing everything was being taken care of so well. We would absolutely trust Rose again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“I reached out to Amber at the last minute for house sitting services because I had a cancellation from my other dogsitter. Amber was super flexible and honest with me about what she could and could not do on such short notice. She was able to meet my dog the very next day for a meet and greet after I sent the request. That was super helpful because I was leaving for a trip in 3 days. My dog was well taken care of and I came back to a happy dog. I will definitely add Amber to my very short list of reliable dogsitters.”

In my client's home, I'll be sure to leave everything as is while still giving full attention to my furry friend.
“It was my first time leaving my puppy with a pet sitter, and I was honestly a little nervous. From beginning to end, Larissa cared for my baby as if she were her own. She kept me updated, made sure she was comfortable, and showed so much love and attention. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and would absolutely trust her again!”

“I had the absolute best experience with Kyla while I was away in Puerto Rico. She was incredibly professional, punctual, and communicative throughout the entire stay. I received regular photo updates of my dog Harley, which gave me such peace of mind and made me smile every time.On the 4th of July she thoughtfully checked to see if Harley would be bothered by fire works and if there was anything extra she could do to calm and soothe her. What really stood out was how she went above and beyond—she not only cared for Harley with so much love and attention, but also took the time to feed my 2 love birds and even the stray cats I look after. That level of care and kindness is rare and truly appreciated. When I got home, I was surprised to find a sweet thank-you card and a thoughtful gift for Harley—a fun duck toy that she absolutely loves!Kyla has such a kind and gentle energy, and I could tell Harley felt loved and safe the whole time I was gone. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely caring to look after their pets!”

“Kassandra was fantastic watching our dog over the Thanksgiving break We were nervous about leaving our Bailey girl home during Thanksgiving, but Kassandra made the entire process seamless. They stayed at our house and treated our pup like their own. We got daily photo updates, which gave us total peace of mind while we were visiting family. We came home to a happy, tired dog and a spotless house. If you need someone trustworthy to watch your pets over the holidays, Kassandra is the one to call!"”

About: 💕 About Me & Pet Experience Hi, I’m Jessica, but most people know me as Aunty Jess — your friendly, reliable pet sitter from Margate, Florida. I’m 24 years old and currently studying Veterinary Technology at Broward College. My passion for animals started when I was very young, and it’s grown into something that truly defines who I am today. I’ve spent several years caring for pets, including small and medium-sized dogs, playful puppies, calm seniors, and cats with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also cared for smaller pets like fish and shrimp — I even have my own aquarium! My experience ranges from everyday walks and feedings to maintaining consistent routines that keep pets calm and happy while their owners are away. For several years, I boarded up to six dogs at a time in my home, managing different breeds, schedules, and personalities with patience and care. It taught me how to balance structure with affection — making sure every dog received attention, exercise, and love. Some of my clients became repeat customers, trusting me multiple times with their pets, which means a lot to me and shows how dependable and compassionate I am with every animal I meet. I also used to have my own dog, who I adored deeply. Due to house rules, I had to rehome him, but I made sure he went to a loving family filled with care, stability, and affection. That experience strengthened my understanding of responsibility and the emotional bond between people and their pets. Now, I focus on offering House Sitting and Dog Walking so I can give pets one-on-one attention and personalized care in the comfort of their own homes. I understand that some pets experience separation anxiety or stress, so I always create a calm environment and follow their normal routines to help them feel safe and loved. Through my studies in Veterinary Technology, I’ve learned how to recognize signs of stress, discomfort, or health concerns early on. I know how to approach each animal with patience, empathy, and care — whether it’s during walks, feeding time, or bedtime. I take pride in being organized, trustworthy, and consistent, with a genuine love for all animals big and small. My goal as Aunty Jess is simple: to make sure every pet I care for feels loved, safe, and happy — just like they would if you were home. 🕓 Schedule I like to keep my schedule transparent and well-organized so pet parents know exactly when I’m available and how I plan my days around your pets’ needs. I’m currently a Veterinary Technology student at Broward College, and I’ve built my class routine to make sure every pet in my care still gets the love, attention, and time they deserve. Here’s my weekly availability: 📅 Monday – Wednesday: I’m in class for about 3 hours during the day, but I’m available after 3:00 PM for house sitting and dog walking. Before leaving for class, I always make sure pets are fed, walked, and comfortable so they feel relaxed while I’m away. When I return, I give them my full attention for evening care, playtime, and cuddles. 📅 Thursday: I have a short 2-hour class during the day, so my availability is very flexible. I’m free after 3:00 PM and can provide walks, meals, and plenty of evening companionship. 📅 Friday – Sunday: These are my fully open days, which means I’m completely available for full-day and overnight house sitting. I dedicate these days to giving your pets my full focus — walks, playtime, meals, and comfort throughout the day and night. I always plan my week carefully to make sure your pets’ needs come first. Even on class days, I maintain structure and consistency by following their normal schedule as closely as possible. You’ll receive daily updates with photos or videos, so you always know how your pets are doing. Your pet’s well-being and routine are always my top priorities — I’m committed to keeping them safe, loved, and happy every day of the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities with every pet I care for. I know that when you choose someone to look after your pets and your home, you’re putting a lot of faith in them — and I take that responsibility very seriously. You can always count on me to treat your space and your pets with respect, care, and honesty. As a vet student, I have knowledge of basic animal health, safety practices, and behavior management, which helps me create a calm, comfortable environment for every pet. I make sure water bowls are always full, leashes and collars are properly fitted, and that pets are supervised closely during walks or outdoor time. If a pet seems anxious or uncomfortable, I know how to respond gently and reassure them until they relax. I also understand how important your home is. When house sitting, I always keep things clean, organized, and secure — the way you left them. I lock doors, follow your household instructions, and never invite anyone over. My goal is to make your home feel just as peaceful for your pets as it does when you’re there. Trust is built through communication, so I send daily photo and video updates so you can see exactly how your pet is doing. Whether it’s a morning walk, nap time, or dinner, I keep you informed and confident that everything is going smoothly. Your pets’ safety and emotional comfort always come first with me. With Aunty Jess, you can feel completely at ease knowing your pets are cared for with love, patience, and a calm environment that feels like home.
Margate pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Brandon and of course was a bit nervous but he went above and beyond. Made sure to update and send pictures throughout the whole stay. He was tidy and clean. Left my house just how I left it. I highly recommend Brandon you won’t be disappointed. Thank you so much for keeping my best bud safe.

Amber was super flexible and honest with me about what she could and could not do on such short notice. She was able to meet my dog the very next day for a meet and greet after I sent the request. That was super helpful because I was leaving for a trip in 3 days. My dog was well taken care of and I came back to a happy dog. I will definitely add Amber to my very short list of reliable dogsitters.

Kristina was absolutely amazing!!! She has so much energy, which is so valuable since I have 2 huskies. She took them on multiple walks a day, took them to the nearby dog park + played with them in our backyard. One of my dogs takes medication for his epilepsy, and she was a pro at administering. She was very communicative, giving me regular updates + photos. She also goes over + beyond!! I didn't expect or request any cleaning, but she insisted, washing bed linens + remaking the bed, cleaning the bathroom, and vacuuming the house! She also thoroughly brushed our dogs, making their coats look better than ever! She even left us all treats on her way out!! My pets had a blast with her + it was great to have someone so reliable + trustworthy so that we could focus on enjoying our vacation. We can't wait to hire her again in the future!

I needed a last minute sitter because I was leaving town for a couple days and Amor was able to help me take care of my Uzi boy! I was nervous because I wasn’t sure how my dog would do given he didn’t know her but she was great and Uzi loved her ! She sent me constant photos and updates on my boy and was very thorough throughout the whole process all the way down to how he ate and what he liked to do. She made sure he was always comfortable and super kind and compassionate towards him.Very thankful for her and will definitely continue working with her in the future when I need a sitter !

We came home to a happy, tired dog and a spotless house. If you need someone trustworthy to watch your pets over the holidays, Kassandra is the one to call!"

Deniro was great from start to finish. During our meet and greet, he had a nice, positive energy, and I could tell right away he was a responsible young man. My dog can be a bit of a handful, she’s injured, full of energy, can’t go on walks, and doesn’t like being alone. She also needs daily medication. Deniro managed all of that beautifully. His communication was excellent, and he sent me thoughtful updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind. I never had a single concern while I was away. I highly recommend him and would absolutely have him watch my dog again!
