“Pugsley had so much fun! I could tell he was having a really good time! I would definitely recommend Jessica and will definitely be a return customer! Thank you so much!”

“Darcy found her home away from home with Gregory! And I found great peace of mind while on vacation leaving my dog with Gregory! He provided updates, videos and pictures everyday where I could see how comfortable Darcy was staying at his house. Highly recommend Gregory as your next dog sitter!”
“Tich was excellent! She took excellent care of my two Boston terriers for 2 weeks. They were walked multiple times a day and received lots of love and attention. I would definitely recommend Tich for animal sitting/boarding. She is a wonderful human and I felt full confidence from her that my pets were being cared for properly while I was out of Country on a business trip.”

About: Hi there! I’m ready to be a second home for your furry baby while you’re away. I grew up in a house where we always had dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. My friends and family often ask me to look after their pets when they travel, and I always do it with love and attention. I currently spend most of my time at home, which means I can give your pet all the care and affection they need. I live in a cozy apartment in a lovely neighborhood with great walking areas nearby, and there’s also a private pet area right on the property. I truly enjoy spending time with animals going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company and making them feel calm and happy. I pay close attention to your pet’s safety both at home and during walks, and I always stay tuned to their mood and behavior. Before our first meeting, I like to learn about your pet’s habits, preferences, personality, and any medications they might need to make sure everything feels comfortable and familiar for them. Your little one will feel safe, loved, and cared for just like at home. I’m currently home most of the time, so I’ll be able to give your furry little one all the care, love, and attention they need. I’m available every day and always delighted to welcome your sweet little friend into my loving, caring hands.” I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood with great walking areas. My building also has a fenced private dog run, providing a secure and comfortable space for your pup. I offer responsible, attentive care for every dog, following their routine for walks, feeding, and rest, and administering medication if needed. Your dog will enjoy a clean, calm home environment and reliable, dedicated care
About: I work in a Veterinary office & Paw Spa in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I am also a dog photographer! I am surrounded by dogs & cats daily and the care that they need will absolutely be my top priority! For 18 years + I have taken care of dogs that need special diets, medications, insulin and eye drops from cataract surgery. My two Cavaliers are Elliott & Walter, they are my family & they also want my attention 24/7! I know how a pet feels when they are not with “their person”… they need to feel comforted & loved. So I talk to them, cuddle them, play, praise them, they get hugs & kisses! I do the same at work, and try to make all dogs checking in feel comfortable, so that they are not nervous while they are getting groomed. *I can also bathe, fluff, nail dremel, shave paw pads, clean ears & do a sanitary trim for an additional $35. My favorite is taking pictures of your pets, I’m happy to send videos and photos daily so that you can see how much fun your pet is having while you relax while you’re away! Your dog should be neutered/spayed, socialized and able to be around others without aggression. Also be friendly with cats 🐈, I have 2! Only “Socialized non-aggressive dogs 25 lbs or less”, no pit bulls. My employment allows me to come home during my lunch hour to spend time with my dogs, feed them and let them out and play. I am available for small dogs to board in my home. I do have two kitties 🐈⬛ and would want to make sure your dog 🐕 is friendly around felines. I am off work for the weekends. If you prefer your pet stay at their own home, I can do drop- in visits for 30 minutes or 60 minutes. I am privately insured with Pet Care Insurance to care for your pet in my home, or yours. *Please make sure if your pets are staying at my home, that they are caught up on their current vaccinations and flea medication’s. Have you ever taken your dog to a doggy daycare & observed that they are friendly with dogs? That’s the kind of dog that would blend in best with my environment here with my two cavaliers, and I also have 2 cats. I would not take on more than two dogs at a time, so that I can give them enough attention. I have a large fenced in yard where I take my dogs outside to safely play! I also have a smaller fenced in side yard/patio off of my kitchen. I would like to do a meet and greet prior, either at my house or in my yard. I want to make sure everyone is “social & comfortable”. All dogs should be neutered or spayed, except for puppies under 8 months old. 🐶 If your dog has a favorite bed or blanket or toys, please pack those for their pup-vacation!
“I can’t recommend Johanne enough! My dog has stayed with her several times and always has a great experience. He’s a bit of a nervous pup, but he warmed up quickly to both Johanne and her sweet dog, Noel. Her calm, welcoming energy helped him feel right at home. She sends tons of pictures and videos, which always put me at ease. Plus, her fenced-in backyard is perfect for dogs to run and play safely. I’m so grateful we found her!”

“Jennifer took great care of Luna! This was the second time Luna stayed over at Jennifer's and she for sure will be back! Luna loves playing with Jennifer's dog Kona”

“Natalie is amazing! Her family is so sweet. Frankie had such a good time. She was spoiled, snuggled and loved on. I actually think she was a little sad to leave! Highly recommend!”

“Kali had a wonderful time. She was so happy. I could tell from her mannerism when I picked her up that she was given all the love and attention she needed, as well as energy exertion and down time. Loved the spacious fenced in yard area! In the past, I've picked her up from other places and the stress level she came back with was so obvious. This was a WORLD of a difference! She will definitely be coming back!!”

“Juan Pablo provided an amazing environment for my timid pup! He sent frequent updates and pictures and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was safe and well cared for. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with him again!”


“I must say Angela was better then I could have ever asked for when it came to my two pups! She kept me updated on how they where doing and was very easy going! I will use Angela again when I have to leave town!”

“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”

“Raquel was fantastic. She sent lots of videos and pictures and I could tell Palmer was having a great time playing with her dog as well. Raquel even picked up a prescription for my dog and made homemade treats and an essential oil for her skin issues. Palmer had a great time and I’ll definitely reach out again the next time we need a sitter.”

“Antonio was great! Tulum, our Shiba Inu, is a very shy dog and a bit anxious around strangers but after a day or so he became friends with Antonio. We got daily updates and pictures from him. We felt comfortable knowing Tulum was doing well. We would definitely book Antonio again.”

“They are seriously the best! Our pup now knows when we are driving up where she’s going and gets so excited. We’ve used Anastasiia&Vadim every single time we need to board our dog ever since we used them first time in June. They treat her like family and are so communicative.”

“Skyler had a blast over at Camilla's place. During Skyler's stay she sent pictures and updates on her and when my husband and I picked her up she had so much energy! We will definitely use Camilla again!!”

“Diana was great! She was very responsive initially and constantly sent updates on Blaze when he was with her. She sent pictures to assure me he was doing well on his first visit to her. I will definitely use her again!”

“Ariel took great care of my dog while I was out of town. I have a very nervous, anxious dog but she quickly got comfortable with Ariel. She sent me updates and pictures every day so I could relax on my trip knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I recommend using her for boarding and will rebook.”

Middle River Terrace dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jennie is absolutely amazing! From the very first meet-and-greet, I could tell she truly loves animals and treats them like family. She was reliable, professional, and so warm with my pet. I received updates and photos every day, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Jennie went above and beyond with communication, playtime, and making sure all routines were followed perfectly. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring, Jennie is the one. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Nikki had a fantastic stay with Jaxon and his family. While she was happy to see me when I picked her up, she would have been happy to stay there. I interviewed 3 potential sitters as I was concerned and felt a little guilty about leaving Nikki for three weeks. I wanted to make sure that the sitter, their home and their pets would work for Nikki. Now I am confident that I chose the best match. Jaxon kept me updated on Nikki and even stepped in when my return flight to the US was cancelled. Now I know I can go away or leave Nikki for a day and she'll be delighted. I highly recommend Jaxon !
Jose was an absolutely wonderful! I couldn’t be more pleased with the care he provided for my Jack. From start to finish, his communication was excellent, and I received regular updates, photos, and notes about how everything was going. Jose is responsible, kind, and clearly loves animals. Jack was very happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when I picked him up. I highly recommend Jose to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring sitter. I will definitely book him again!

Our German Shepherd had a great week staying with Adam! Our dog has a lot of anxiety, which makes it difficult leaving him- but he warmed up quickly to Adam and Alex, and settled right in! I appreciated their updates and photos- it was very reassuring! Highly recommend these excellent pet sitters!!

Heather was the most amazing dog sitter I have used thus far. She sent constant updates, tons of photos, walked my pup as instructed and often. Heather also did a great job with my dogs specific medication and food schedules. I will only be using Heather in the future for any sitter needs in the Fort Lauderdale area. I would recommend her to anyone! She’s absolutely fantastic. And her little pups are so cute and friendly too. I definitely felt comfort in leaving my dog with her while I was on vacation!

David and Thomas were amazing. My yorkie Zeus and I felt the love the moment we dropped him off. Zeus is usually shy at first, but he went right to both of them. I truly enjoyed the updates in the pictures. When we picked up Zeus, he seemed very content. Thank you both so much!

Sam and Thaymar were wonderful hosts. They took wonderful care of my two dogs. The daily photos and updates were appreciated especially since this was my first time using Rover. I knew my babies were safe and having a great time. I will definitely be booking again with Sam and Thaymar! Thank you!!

Antonio was great! Tulum, our Shiba Inu, is a very shy dog and a bit anxious around strangers but after a day or so he became friends with Antonio. We got daily updates and pictures from him. We felt comfortable knowing Tulum was doing well. We would definitely book Antonio again.

Denise was fantastic with our girl Fiona! We went on a long cruise so finding a new sitter was a huge stress for me. I interviewed a few other sitters and I just felt that Denise was the best fit for our girl. I liked that Denise worked from home. She live I. A cute clean home that has a small safe back yard. Denise kept us posted on Fiona even though our phone reception wasn’t great on the ship. When we returned Fiona looked healthy and so happy. I definitely recommend Denise. I would absolutely use here again!!
