She did everything I asked of her like feeding and cleaning the litter box, and even went above and beyond with playing with him, brushing him a little, giving him his favorite treats, and taking a bunch of good pictures. I’d highly recommend Katlyn if you have a cat.”

Thank you Tamara for taking such good care of Lucy and Luna.”

About: I've been caring for pets since I was 11 years old, and taking care of animals have always been a big part of my life. I have extensive experience with large and small dogs and am equally comfortable caring for cats. I also had the opportunity to care for pets belonging to U.S. State Department and Embassy families while living in Hanoi, Vietnam, which gave me experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, and care routines. I am experienced in giving medication to dogs, dogs with special needs and extensive needs and older dogs who sometimes might have medical issues! I'm happy to help with bathing, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I've been bathing my own dogs and cats for years, so I'm comfortable keeping pets clean and comfortable. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks, visiting dog parks (when appropriate), and making sure they get the exercise and enrichment they need. My goal is to build a career in animal care, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to providing a safe, caring, and fun experience for your furry family members! PS. My reviews are on the same day because my account is new so I had my clients do testimonials :) My college classes are online so it doesn’t interfere. I can do part time full time any time. My dog walking care is part or full time as well! I prioritize pet safety and make sure to follow all owner instructions carefully, ensuring pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for in my hands.
“Where do I start? By saying thank you, honestly. I'm not a fan if leaving my home and basically my kids to someone new, it's an ordeal. But having found Angela here had changed that. I can now go a travel without having to worry about my little ones, she went above and beyond with her care and services. Tremendous care, on time, true to her word, and above all she's super cool, and with her ffet in the ground. Book her and forget about the rest! Thank you!!!”
“This is the second visit Monica has taken on with my energetic pups. She is a great communicator and sends lots of pics. Chewy arrived while she was there and she provided treats all around :) the pups love her and I can’t say enough about how appreciative I am to have a reliable person to take care of the pups while I’m out!”
“Thanks Marriah, Alice is happy and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I appreciate the communication after every visit and of course the cute photos. I will ask for you again the next time I need a sitter. 😄”
About: I have worked with dogs and all types of animals my whole life my last job I was a doggie daycare attendant and had up to 10 dogs in one group making sure they were happy and safe and was also a dog bather working with all breeds and sizes from Saint Bernard to chihuahuas. I also have been dog sitting for family and friends for a long time now. I'm currently not working at the moment so I'm available any day or time to dog or cat sit and can stay the night with them How I Keep Pets Safe and Take Care of Them As a dedicated and caring pet sitter, the safety, comfort, and happiness of the animals in my care are always my top priorities. Whether I’m watching over dogs, cats, or both, I treat each pet as if they were my own. For Dogs I follow their regular routine closely including feeding times, walks, potty breaks, and play. I use secure leashes and harnesses on walks and keep a close eye on surroundings to avoid any dangers like aggressive dogs or busy streets. I make sure they stay hydrated, well-fed, and have plenty of attention and exercise based on their energy level and age. I monitor for signs of stress, illness, or discomfort, and I’ll notify the owner right away if anything seems off. I keep doors and gates closed and locked at all times to prevent escapes. For Cats: I respect their individual personalities giving shy cats space and attention when they’re ready, and playing with the more social ones. I keep litter boxes clean and ensure they have fresh water and food according to the owner’s instructions. I make sure indoor cats stay safely inside, and outdoor access (if allowed) is closely supervised. I give them cozy spots to relax and enrich their day with toys, brushing, or cuddles (if they enjoy it). For all pets, I maintain a calm, loving environment and stick to their normal schedule as much as possible to reduce stress while their owners are away. I also send regular updates and pictures so you know your pets are safe and happy.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Smyrna Beach
Jennifer provided excellent care to our cats. She is a great communicator and very thoughtful regarding what else might make our cats more comfortable. I have never used Rover before and felt reassured by Jennifer’s competence and dedication which made our trip away worry free. I highly recommend Jennifer.
Celeste was great with my dogs and spent plenty of time with Judah outside. She followed my instructions about the shoe covers and kept them on all the way out to her car, which I really appreciated. She was very attentive to the dogs and made sure they got plenty of attention. I would definitely have her back.
I had Daniela come again while I was away on a longer trip...I was nervous to leave my cats this time as 2 had developed some UTI issues just before I left. Daniela was so attentive and caring it really helped to know they were all in such great hands. She gave me regular updates so I could pass on to the vet on my return and ease my stress. I'm looking forward to having her back again when I need to go away!
Paige was phenomenal. She was kind, personable, trustworthy, and loved our animals like her own. We are so grateful we found her. She is hands-down the best pet sitter in town. I could not recommend her enough if you’re looking for a pet sitter in New Smyrna. She was always on time, sent the best photos and got to know our animals. Paige is so sweet and kind and caring and was able to cater to all of their personal needs!! 10000000/10 !!
Paige was FANTASTIC! She was very communicative, reliable and took excellent care of our fur baby, Ranger, while we were gone. Select truly cares about animals and if shows in how she cares for the pets she watches. We will definitely be using Paige again when we need a sitter for Ranger!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a New Smyrna Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Smyrna Beach. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
