“Haley was great! We were gone for a week and came home to a happy, healthy pup. Haley cuddled with him, walked him, and even let us know when he was seeming extra itchy so we could make him more comfortable. She was reliable, responsive, and trustworthy. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a teenager! I have ample experience with caring for senior dogs, giving walks, feeding, outdoor play, bathing, and nail clipping. I absolutely love all dogs, and I have experience with caring for big and small dogs alike! I am a graduate student at the University of Florida, so I have flexibility with my days to check in on your pets! I am open to visiting your home to care for your pet or bringing your pet into my own home to care for them! I do not travel much, so I largely have an open schedule. I will happily send you photos of your pets daily! I live in an apartment complex with ample courtyard space for dogs to walk and play. There is also a nearby dog park to take any dogs that I care for. I also have a lovely fenced in back porch that I often let my cat sit outside on. I am willing to visit and/or stay in your home with your animals as well! I will follow all instructions that you leave me, and I will ensure the safety of your pets while they are in my care.
About: I am from Orlando and a current student at UF. I have the 2 cutest dogs; A Pitbull named Fuzzy and a American Bulldog named Pickles! We had to train Pickles for a while since he wasn’t the friendliest with other dogs, but now he has no problems! When I am back home with them I love taking them to the beach, going on trail walks with them, getting starbucks with them and teaching them new tricks! Being aware from my dogs definitely is hard and I miss them all the time which Is why I started dog walking and sitting! I love getting to meet new animals and how each animal has a different personality! I currently work a part time job so I have plenty of hours to spend with you pet and providing them with the care, love, and attention they need. I am home every night for boarding and am home for majority of my day. I live in an apartment with lots of yard and walking space. I can also bring them in my car to go on fun trail walks. I have room for a crate if the owner wants to provide one. Animals are also allowed on the bed and couch and free to roam wherever in my apartment. My apartment also hosts events on some weekends for animals as well and is very pet friendly
“As a business owner in the boarding and dog industry myself, trusting someone to stay in my home and care for my dogs was a huge deal for me — especially since our dogs have quite a few senior and special-care needs. Jonathan absolutely exceeded every expectation. We are definitely “those” pet owners with a million instructions wanting everything done just right, and he handled all of it with patience, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was incredible. Any time I reached out, he responded within minutes, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s very rare to find people you genuinely trust with your home and your animals, but he made the entire experience stress-free. The dogs were well cared for, happy, and all of their special needs were accommodated without issue. Honestly, this experience changed things for us. For the first time, we actually feel like we can travel and enjoy vacations without worrying the entire time. We’re already planning our next trip knowing we have a person we can truly rely on. Highly, highly recommend Johnathan Absolute gems.”


About: I have had my own dogs and cats my whole life and currently have one dog and one cat. I worked at an animal shelter through high school with all kinds of dogs and cats and am comfortable with pretty much anything they can throw at me. Sometimes accidents happen and it’s ok and sometimes they get scared when new people are around which is totally understandable. I’m very comfortable being patient with any animal who needs a little extra love and understanding. I am currently a full time student and usually my day is pretty open on any day I don’t have class and in between my classes. I have two pets of my own who I get up early to take care of before class and always make sure I’m home to take care of after class. Weekends that I’m not visiting family are usually completely free as well. In a client’s home, the most important thing for any nervous pet will be respecting boundaries. I have a nervous girl dog and girl cat so I totally understand when they are a little hesitant to new people. But if they are sociable and want plenty of love I can absolutely give that too. I am very good at reading their body language and actions to determine what they want or need in the moment and will absolutely respect that their space if they want that.
About: I’ve grown up around both cats and dogs, and my love for animals has always been one of the few things I’ve been completely certain about. That passion led me into the veterinary field, where I’ve now worked for the past 3 years caring for animals of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Through my experience in veterinary medicine and boarding facilities, I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets at once while still making sure each animal receives individual attention, patience, and compassion. I’m also trained in administering oral medications, injections, and other basic medical care when needed. Working closely with animals every day has taught me how important trust, routine, and gentle handling are for pets while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra attention, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I work weekdays 9am–5pm, but I prioritize pet care before and after work, ensuring pets receive attention, playtime, feeding, medications, and loving care. I’m also available on weekends. In my client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks or playtime, and administering any medications as instructed. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, affection, and calm companionship so pets feel safe while their owners are away. I keep the home clean, respect all instructions, and provide updates so owners have peace of mind.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know how much they mean to you. I don’t just “watch” animals I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and little quirks so they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve worked with both puppies and senior pets, so I understand how different their needs can be. Whether it’s helping reinforce potty training and leash habits for younger dogs, or giving extra patience, gentle care, and medication support for older pets, I adjust to what your pet needs. You’ll never be left wondering how things are going. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. At the end of the day, my goal is simple: Give your pet a stress free, loving experience and give you total peace of mind. Throughout the week, I stay flexible so I can accommodate different routines, whether it’s early morning visits, evening checkins, or multiple visits per day. I also build in time for updates, so pet owners always know how their pet is doing. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, it’s not just a task, it’s something I look forward to, making it easy to give each pet the care and attention they deserve. I provide care based on what makes each pet most comfortable, whether that’s in my home or yours. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and quiet companionship, so they feel safe in their own space. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and consistent.
“This was our second time using Raegan to drop in on our 2 cats and we highly recommend! She followed all of our care instructions and kept our home clean for when we returned and was very responsive anytime we needed to reach her. We definitely suggest using her for your pet sitting needs!”


“She did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy during the drop in visits. She was attentive, followed all instructions and made sure my puppy was safe and well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend again”


About: I have been a dog owner for the majority of my life and have provided reliable care to my friends’ pets for about 5 years. I have experience caring for puppies as well as multiple animals at once. I am a student at the University of Florida but I have a mostly open schedule. I’m available all day on weekends, every weekday morning before 10 AM, after 11:30 AM every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and after 5 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I plan to maintain a safe environment for any animal, and I will cater the experience to each pet and their individual needs. It is important to me that your pet feels as comfortable as possible, whether that be in your home or mine. I will care for your pet according to your desired schedule to ensure they experience care and consistency even when away from their loving owner.
“Accepted my booking (which wasn’t an easy feat by any means) super last minute and even squeezed in a meet in greet before we headed out of town. Super kind and prompt with responses + visits. Can’t thank them enough.”

About: Having owned a barn I have experience with all types of pets. I have experience with difficult pet kids. Trained in administering oral, IV & IM meds. My schedule allows me to be available anytime at your place or mine. Boarding, daily walks, just some together time or vet apts. Your companions care is my priority. Your fur babies are treated to long walks and massages. They will be the only pet(s) staying at my place. I care for them as my own.
About: Im been working as both an veterinary assistant and technician for about 7 years. With some occasional dog walking and sitting throughout that. I’m currently going to veterinary school as well Im currently in vet school, so my hours are a little sporadic I’m mainly available after hours and during the weekends. But of course I can always find ways to work around your schedule. Im fear free certified, meaning I’m a big advocate for keeping pets stress/anxiety free. We can communicate on your pets special needs or make sure they feel comfortable.

About: I currently don't have much professional experience with pet sitting, but I do have experience with being around others' pets and taking care of my own. Most of my real experience comes from taking care of my family's Australian Shepherd since I was a kid. We have gone on regular walks, maintained routines, and had plenty of playtime together. I'm currently working part-time and a full-time student. However, I still have plenty of time on my schedule throughout the week. I'll be able for walks or check-ins any time Tuesday-Friday. For boarding, the only set time that I have would be Fridays, but my schedule is always fluctuating and other days could also work. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For boarding, I make sure to keep it as safe and comfortable for the pet while following their normal schedule. I also keep in mind the cleanliness of the house to ensure that it's kept as a pet-friendly space. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get their neurons active, and look for any possible things I need to clean up. For walks, I focus on keeping your pet safe and engaged. I take into account how your pet reacts with other pets (or how you like to deal with it) and adjust the pace based on how they react to their surroundings. I understand the importance of following instructions carefully, so I can also provide updates to keep you at ease!

About: I have an extensive background with all types of pets, even owning 15 types of big and small animals growing up myself. I’ve watched numerous breeds of dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends and I am dedicated to treating each pet with individuality tailored care. I have a flexible schedule as a part time barista and college student, and the earlier my notice is the more I can do for your furry friends. I make it my priority to check on my own furry friends as much as possible. Health is a top priority, but cuddles are always added if the pet permits them.
About: Hi, I’m Kassy! I provide dedicated, high-quality pet care tailored to your furry family member’s unique personality and lifestyle.

I have a full time job at mederi private care as an hha but its a very flexible schedule and i will be able to do overnights and days I would treat everyones pets as if they were mine and with a great attitude giving them frequent walks and even letting them have their zoomy time
About: I grew up surrounded by my pets, and when I came to the US for grad school I was at least relieved to know that they are with my family, in safe hands. They are 4 crazy dogs, ranging from seniors to young adults now. I miss them so much and will love spending time with your pets here, while also making some extra cash to send goodies to mine and my family. I will follow all your instructions and I'll love every second I get o spend with them. I cannot take them to my apartment at the moment, because my landlord doesn't allow pets, but I can go to your houses to take proper care of them as needed. Looking forward to hear from you and your amazing pets! I'm a PhD Student, working only on my research. My schedule is very flexible, and most of the times, I only need my computer to be able to work, which will allow me to work around your pets schedule. Unfortunately, the apartment where I live here doesn't allow pets, but I'm willing to go to their homes to feed them, play with them, take them out for walks, or anything as instructed by their owners.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 510 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Micanopy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
