This was our second time having Renee take care of our boys and once again it was wonderful. Our doggies are always well fed, well played, and very tired after their time. Thank you again for taking such good care of the boys.

Eva is the sweetest and absolute best! Our dog is our child and we are extremely careful about who watches him and I would use her again hands down. I feel much more at ease knowing we have someone we can trust to watch him. We had a last minute trip and responded within 15 minutes and came the next day. You will not be disappointed she’s the best and very trustworthy! Thank you Eva ❤️ Oliver can’t wait for your next visit!!

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life! My first job ever was dog walking at 10 years old- and since then my passion has grown more and more for pet care! From young to old- I can meet the specific needs of your pet! I would love to spend time with your furry friend :) I am a college student at UF currently on a semester long break. I have a lot of free time and can pet sit anytime during any day of the week! I am very dedicated to creating a safe environment for your pet! I take my responsibilities very seriously and will comply to the owners schedule!

About: I have been a pet owner my whole life. Having had multiple large dogs including pit bulls and now smaller breeds and cats! I’m also able to care of farm and exotic animals! For Farm animals and exotic animal care I do that on a personal basis, not on rover as rover doenst have the options for pricing those animals needs. But please message me if you’d like those services! Rover does take 20% of my income so please consider tipping as it helps me out! I’m in the process of opening a salon in my local town but in the mean time my schedule is open for lots of fur baby care! Playing and walking your pup is always a good idea! Especially if they have high energy and love toys. Will walk your pup or even cat with provided leash and harness. Will follow your instructions on feeding time and will not feed them anything other than what you have stated. In the case of an emergency I do have a small first aid kit in my car and will take your pet to the vet should they need it.

We had Elizabeth stay with our puppy when we had a date night. She walked him and he seemed very comfortable with her. No potty accidents in the house and no mess was left by the sitter. After his post return zoomies subsided when we got back he slept for the rest of the night. We will be having Elizabeth stay at our home again for a longer period time when we are out of town.

She is the greatest dog lover that I have ever met or known. She would jump into oncoming traffic to save any dog and if it is one that she knows and loves... well nothing would stop her from helping or doing whatever it took to help that dog. She acts like they are her children (little four legged people). Michele also believes every dog deserves a second chance. She also believes that there are no bad dogs, only bad owners. I can say that I would trust her with my dogs (she also always put their safety first).

Raeven is amazing with my dogs! I most definitely recommend her for Rover! She’s very trustworthy and loves them like her own. Raevens taken care my dogs for a few years now. I don’t have to worry about them when she’s with them. She’s very patient with them and they love when she comes to see them. Raevens taken them on walks and has bathed them for me. Her dedication to animals is amazing. Raevens is definitely someone I completely trust to take care of my babies!.
