“Alecia was great ! Our pups are Yorkie chihuahuas mix, 5 years old never left behind or been away from me before. She took the time to listen to our routines and their habits. She stayed the nights at our house since thats when we worried the most about leaving them. She made sure to spend time getting to know them, they were buddies quickly. She left our house cleaned up the way she found it. She stayed in touch with me everyday and sent me some amazing pictures. We were super pleased and it was amazing to be able to go away and not worry. Thank you Alecia !!!”

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I will always have a dog. I am very passionate about making sure pets recieve the best care. Christina is my name and top-quality pet care is my game! I currently own one dog, Kiko is high energy so I take him to the dog park once a day and take a few walks a day as well. I have one very friendly dog that absolutely loves other dogs and would be happy to keep your fur baby company! I can provide any care for your beloved pet that is needed.

“Monica was/ is awesome, she is kind, calm and dependable. My dog Tilly and my horse Bo love her. Highly recommend and will be booking again as needed. 5 Stars”

“I am always amazed at the great job Richard does with my very energetic lab and husky! They are a handful and they always seem so happy when we return. Thank you, Richard!”

“I've known Jess for years. She is a caring, thoughtful , smart and responsible person. She graduated College with a Masters degree. She had many pets growing up. Both dogs and cats. Whenever she comes to visit my house, my dogs would gravitate to her and she to them. When she would stay overnight, my dogs would find their way to her room and wind up staying with her the whole night. Or when we would watch TV, my dog would be laying on her lap as she gently petted him. I trust her wholeheartedly with my beloved fur babies as I know she gives them the same care that I would give them. I would recommend her as a very caring pet sitter. Donna”

“Very responsible and kind. My dog and cat immediately loved her.”

“Cheyenne is amazing with animals! She has been our nanny and pet sitter for a few years now. She has watched our dogs and cats many times when I have not been home. She is a very trustful and caring girl. She takes great care of all animals/kids and has always had so much love and care for them.”

“Hello to you dog lovers and owners. I am writing to let you know that Shernee will make a great dog walker/watcher. She has two dogs of her own. She love those dogs as if they were her children. I have worked with Shernee close to three years now. She is very sweet, creative, and responsible. You can count on her to talk very special care of your dogs.”

“Elizabeth was great and out fur kiddos loved her! She was very helpful and communicated well. Would definitely look to use her services in the future! Thanks!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life. I currently have a Mini Aussie puppy named Optimus and we spend every waking minute together. I’m big into long walks, hiking, and fun play cause I believe everyday of their lives should be a day to remember. I love dogs with everything inside of me and I honestly don’t think I’ll ever be without one. My baby boy especially is my whole world and I promise to take care of your fur babies as if they were apart of my household. I am currently working a part time job with lots of flexibility to watch your babies. I am a barista and have many days off to come and visit, take your animal for walks and feed them according to your schedule. My dog has free roam in the house with plenty of toys. He is walked every 2 hours and also taken to a pet friendly farm to run all around to his hearts content. I feed him twice a day but willing to feed your baby on whatever schedule you use. I like to visit state parks with my boy weekly and spend as much time (when the weather is agreeable) outside in the fresh air. He’s kind of skiddish around other dogs and people so I’m used to that as well!

“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!.”

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs, as well as birds, and have grown up with cats all my life. To name a few, I have taken care of and been responsible for pitbulls, standard poodles, lab/hound mixes, golden retrievers, chow mixes, chihuahuas, etc. I am currently working full-time as a teacher, but am available most days after 3:15 during the week, and also available during the weekend as long as I am given at least a 1-2 weeks in advance notice, so I may plan accordingly. I would prefer to fur-babysit at my client's home just because it is where they are most familiar, and I want them to be comfortable.

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.

“Rebecca is so amazing with dogs! Her genuine love and affection towards them is felt by the dog she is interacting with. I would definitely want Rebecca to be my rover.”

About: I have been caring for animals since I was in high school. Friends, family, and strangers have relied on me to care for their cats, dogs, rodents, birds, and lizards for years. My animals are my babies and they are treated as such. I love spending time with other peoples' animals just about as much as I do my own. When your pets are in my care, they are given the highest quality of care. My clients become like family - I will check in with you to see how your fur babies are doing and if you need me for anything. I am a teacher in Micanopy. My work schedule is 7:00-3:30 Monday through Friday. I have the ability to do drop-ins before and after work (location dependant) as well as boarding/housesitting throughout the week. My house contains three pet-loving adults, so when a pet stays in my home they are never alone. I'm typically available every weekend, holiday break, and summer as well. At my home, I have a fenced-in backyard and cameras. I also have a spare room that allows for slow and controlled introductions between client pets and my own personal animals. While my pets are allowed in the fenced-in yard by themselves, I never leave client pets alone to ensure they don't dig out of the yard and get lost. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I follow any and all instructions the client gives.
