Pet care experience

Loving, trustworthy, and dependable

*** PLEASE NOTE: I DO NOT WALK DOGS. NO EXCEPTIONS. Dog walking is a specific service offered by Rover. If you need dog walking, please select “Dog Walking”, and not “Drop-In Visits”, from the menu to find a list of dog walkers in your area. Thank you. 😊 *** I’ve been caring for family pets since I was 13. I grew up with Collies, a Golden Retriever, a couple cats, goats, chickens, rabbits, and ducks. My husband and I currently have a 13-year old Bombay cat and two 8-month old tuxedo kitten siblings. We previously cared for one Pomeranian / Chihuahua for 14 years, and 6 cats over the course of 30 years. We also recently lost our 12-year old German Shepherd on December 26, 2025. ❤️‍🩹 I love animals, their genuine kindness, comfort, and companionship. When you book with me, you are placing a great deal of trust in me and my skills. My online reviews are a testament to my personal character and to the dedication I have to current and former clients. You can rest assured that I will arrive on time, stay the entire amount of time you paid for, and genuinely interact with your fur babies. I have gotten on the floor to play with cats and their toys. I don’t mind throwing a slobbery ball over and over to your dog. I have no problem cleaning litter boxes and cleaning any pet accidents. I don’t mind if your house smells like animals or if you think your home is messy. I am not there to judge. I am there to take care of your pet(s). I will talk to your animals like they are little babies. I have had great success in getting skittish animals to trust me and come to me for pets, as I am very patient. I take lots of photos and videos and provide detailed updates, as this is what I would want from a Rover sitter. Photos are nice, but videos can help ease any anxiety you may have about leaving your pet(s) with me. Being an active Rover sitter since December 2024 has been life changing for me. It has positively impacted my mental health and given me a greater purpose in life. Seeing your pets and interacting with them brings me immense joy. I also have a passion for serving others. It is a win-win for everyone.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Our pets are members of our family. I will care for your pets the same way I care for mine - with lots of love, play time, head and chin scratches, and compassion. I serve a six-mile radius from my home, which includes the Buck Lake, Lafayette Oaks, Chaires, Capitola, Miccosukee, Crump, Centerville, Mahan, Lloyd, Welaunee, and Killearn Estates neighborhoods (but not Killearn Lakes). If you are unsure if I am within your service area, please feel free to reach out to me to confirm. I also take care of chickens and goats. Please contact me for more details and pricing.

Absolutely amazing! Stacey was fantastic! This is the second time I've used her this year and she did not disappoint. I had long days at work and didn't have to worry about my baby. Even with the rain, she was great with my Lambert and sent wonderfully cute pictures and videos. I appreciate that Stacey is reliable and loves kn my baby as her own. I will definitely be using her services again!!

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Stacey can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your fur baby has any specific needs or behaviors I should know about. I have no preference for cat or dog breed. *** NOTE *** I do not offer dog walking services at this time. My services are drop-in visits, which include feeding, change of clean water, potty breaks, inside play, backyard play (dogs), companionship, litter cleanup (cats), any additional cleanup from cats and dogs (accidents, cleaning food/water bowls), any medication administration (including injections), checking mail, bringing in package deliveries, taking trash cans to and from the street, and watering house plants. I will also take care of chickens (feeding and water) and collect their eggs. And I would love to take care of goats. Contact me for more info.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
