“Very good experience. This is my first time having a kitten and my first time being away for a couple days. Meghan was extremely punctual when meeting. The pictures she took of my kitten were the most cute and precious pictures. I felt great reassurance that she was ok. My kitten was a litttle stressed when returning, but I can tell from the pictures that Meghan gave great comfort to my kitten and I really appreciate it. Would recommend.”
About: I have cared for many animals over the past 18 years while managing a pet resort. I have also walked dogs during my lunch hour. I recently retired after 18 years in veterinary medicine and managing pet resort. I have always loved animals and have 6 dogs of my own. I have a 6 foot fenced yard and have 6 dogs of my own. My dogs are dog friendly and go to daycare often and play.
“Most excellent sitter. Engaging and involved! She was very communicative, punctual, and respectful. Our doggo’s loved her. I never worried about them while we were gone. We’ll be using her again.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life, and taken care of them in full for my family, friends and neighbors. I love four legged furry friends; giving them walks, playing with them and making them feel comfortable. I have always adopted rescue dogs so have a good sense of how to take care of apprehensive dogs, as well as hyperactive or dogs that need more attention and a patient trainer. I have amateur experience training dogs and have learned tips from my sister who is an experienced dog trainer and dog walker. I have chickens at home and have cared for furry, scaled and feathered friends in the past, I love them all. I am patient and loving when it comes to taking care of animals and hope you will consider me to take care of your best friend(s)! My partner and I have recently lost our best furry friend and I would love a reason to get outside more often with my favorite animal (dogs!) or any animal at all. I currently work full time but am off on Sundays/Mondays as well as evenings. My job allows me to leave midday as needed. If I can plan ahead with a care schedule, I have no issue fitting walks/care as needed. I personally have always had free range dogs, but have experience with free ranging as well as crated dogs. I am comfortable working with contained pets as well; chickens, other birds, snakes, tarantulas etc.
About: +15 years caring / sitting dogs and cats Sat multi animal homes including 3-4 dogs and 6-7 cats. Sometimes I feel I’d qualify to work at a literal zoo. High energy and punctual - prepared to walk / play as long as your dog needs. Administered medicines including pills, powders, creams, ear/ mouth injections, to a range of animals (young-senior). Patients range from very grumpy cats to unenthused dogs. Cared for several animals and administered medicines as needed. Ranging from retired greyhounds who have trouble walking to elderly bulldogs who may need a helpful roll to get up. I am a full time artist so I have a very flexible work schedule. I work from home so I can schedule drop ins and walks on short notice and with limited interruption. I have a reliable vehicle to get me to and from visits. I’ll provide unobtrusive and reliable pet care in your home. I am neat, don’t rush, and I pay attention to detail. I am door locking stickler and a double checker. I’ll stick to the script and let you know if there are any regularities.

About: Hi, I’m Maria! I’ve always been an animal lover and treat every pet like they’re my own. I have two cats myself (who I’m totally obsessed with), so I understand how important it is to leave your pets in good hands. Whether I’m going for a walk with your pup or keeping your cat company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I pay attention to the little things—every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes them feel comfortable and happy. Caring for cats is a daily routine for me, as I’m the proud owner of two feline companions. I delight in pampering them with treats and expressing my affection through play whenever there are toys at hand. I have two cats of my own who love being in my company, and I’ve frequently cared for my friends’ pets when they’re away. They affectionately refer to me as their pets’ honorary aunt.
“Emily is fantastic! She takes such good care of my kitty, I never need to worry about her when I’m gone. My cat loves her, and she doesn’t love many people haha. I highly recommend her!”
About: Imagine getting paid to do the best thing in the world. For me, the best thing in the world is taking care of animals, so becoming a pet sitter was a no-brainer! My name is Caroline, and I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I'm a dog mom to a very sweet basenji named Jordy. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy! I value prompt, efficient communication, so you can always reach me by phone and trust you’ll get a quick reply.

Pamela M.
“I founded a the first beagle rescue in Jacksonville, where Pam quickly became my right hand in running the organization. She was an exceptional foster, often taking in some of our most challenging dogs and working with them patiently and effectively. Pam truly was the heart of our rescue efforts. Currently, I’m a Rover sitter myself for the past 8 years. Pam takes care of my own person dog and those of my personal pet sitting clients when I’m not available. You will not find a more responsible, caring and experienced person to trust with your pets and home.”

Jamie L.
“Ive known Jamie for close to 5 years now, and in that time we have both helped each other out with our pets. She has regularly helped out with our 4 cats when we were out of town. From feeding, watering, cleaning the litter both, to even helping out with daily medications. We would often get a photo from her fiance of her sitting on the floor surrounded by cats, each one looking for extra scratches and love.”
Kyle D.
“My dog Ruger is obsessed with Kyle and loves spending time with him, I always know he's in great hands when I have to leave him alone. Kyle is especially great with him on walks. I trust that he will give him the exercise he needs while also being sure he gets lots of sniffs and potty breaks. He is also great with being extra cautious when walking past other dogs or cats, as my dog isn't friendly. I would highly recommend using Kyle!”

Maria S.
“Maria is the biggest cat lover I know. She has an obvious care and love for animals to anyone she meets. She’s also extremely responsible and kind, and one of the only people I trust to come to my house when I’m out of town. I have a cat who has a lot of anxiety and pretty much hates everyone but my husband and I, and she is always so patient and loving towards her when we go out of town. She even lets her pet her now which is a huge deal if you know my cat. She will love and care for your pets as her own! I hate leaving my fur baby, but she makes me feel much more at ease.”

Hampton is so wonderful! My (normally shy) cat trusts him and is totally comfortable with him which is such a treat and a testament to Hampton’s gentleness. Hampton is always so communicative and lovely and provides the best updates. He even goes so far as to tidy up litter box and take out trash, which I so appreciate! I will continue booking him as long as he’s able to!
Mallory is an amazing dog sitter! She took such great care of our old gal while we were away, providing plenty of love, attention, and updates. Mallory is an excellent communicator. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pet, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Mallory to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
