“Britney is truly amazing. She’s been our go to sitter since last November. This time we had to go out of town with little advance notice. Britney responded very quickly that she would watch our dog. She eagerly took on the care of our dog despite the dog having a strain knee ligament. While Britney pampered Luna, she noted that the injury seemed more than just a strain. She contacted me and help us out by taking Luna to the vet for an x-ray. Turns out it was a tear, no a strain. I’m n order to keep Luna off the leg, she even slept on the couch and the floor with Luna! That is caring. I can’t praise her enough!”

About: Your Pet’s Home Away From Home 🐶🐱❤️ Hi! I’m Emily, and I’d love to care for your pets while you’re away! I’m a lifelong animal lover and have had pets since I was 5. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and all kinds of furry friends over the years. I’ve also volunteered and fostered with animal shelters for several years, so I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities, ages, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers to curl up on the couch and get some extra love, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. 🐾 I have 2 fur babies of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pets. I’m happy to follow your normal routine, including meals, walks, medications, playtime, and plenty of cuddles! I have a fenced-in yard and live in a great neighborhood for walks. I’m also very flexible and can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. 📸 I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder what your fur baby is up to! I’d love to meet you and your pets and hopefully become your go-to sitter! ❤️🐾 I currently work a very flexible job, which allows me time to come home and take care of my fur babies. I look forward to meeting yours! I have a fenced in yard, live in a great neighborhood for walking with sidewalks, and have my own fur babies to keep yours company!
“James took very good care of my Nellie Mae. He was very good with her and she would kiss him and nap on his lap. These are the things she does with her mom. He played toys with her as well. I highly recommend James to anyone who needs a dog sitter. A big thank you James.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Murdock
I would book with Jennifer again. She dropped in for my 2 cats and boarded my dog. Everyone seemed happy and healthy when I was reunited with them. She updated me frequently with pictures and videos and left everything even better than I had left it before I went on vacation. I truly appreciate Jennifer’s attention and care.
Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She took care of both of our dogs for an entire week while we were in Mexico, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was dependable, caring, attentive, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were in great hands while we were away. It’s not easy leaving your pets for a whole week, but Jennifer made the entire experience stress-free. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs, which says everything. We would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you so much, Jennifer! 🐾❤️
Natalka & Nikita were absolutely wonderful to Sydney and made her feel right at home! Sydney has issues with being terrified during storms and they were so loving to her. Natalka kept us up to date on Sydney's care throughout her stay with them. We felt that she was so cared for by their whole family. We would absolutely book with them again and again!
Absolutely perfect! Communicated rapidly, provided pics and comments during an in-home stay, she was attentive, personable, caring and passionate. A beautiful person with character, education, culture and a moral compass. I have used Rover numerous times and Katie provides services that are above the normal. Capable and knowledgeable for caring for a variety of animals will be very helpful in the future. Our choice for in-home care due to a recently rescued cocker spaniel was to help adjust to a new home. What a surprise to see Katie's expertise in connecting and becoming a best friend to our cocker. What a comfort to have our home and best friend looked after in the best possible way.
Natasha is great with my pups! She sent photos and updates over the weekend while I was away! She’s also so flexible and communicative! It’s hard to find people you can trust and treat your dogs how you want them to be treated. So I will definitely be using her again!!
Tifani took great care of our lab. She sent us videos and photos every day while we were away and she responded to our queries in a timely manner. She gave our dog lots of cuddles, walks and play time and treated him like he was part of her family. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Murdock home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Murdock.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Murdock sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
