“I am so grateful for the amazing care my puppy received! The sitter went above and beyond, keeping me updated with photos and making sure he was happy and well cared for. My puppy is high-energy, and I truly appreciate knowing he was in good hands. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for reliable and loving care!”


“Sheena watched our babies for the 2nd time and once again, we were so happy with her! She is kind and empathetic, and we won’t hesitate to have her watch over our pups again!”


“We had a great experience with Christina. She stayed in our home for 5 days with our 12 year old girl Cali. Christina sent texts and pictures daily so we didn't have to worry about how Cali was doing and were able to enjoy our vacation. Came home to a happy dog and a clean house. What more can you ask for?”


“First time using Rover. Peggy was an exceptional dog sitter. Exceeded my expectations. I was continually updated via texts, pictures and videos of my 2 doxies. Peggy is a lovely, warm hearted person who makes you feel so comfortable leaving your dogs with and staying in your home. She was fastidious with the care of my home and will definitely have Peggy watch my pups whenever we are away. She went above and beyond my expectations!!!”



“Camille is the sweetest, most loving, on-time person to take care of our puppy. She was so helpful with the new member of our family. Highly recommend!”

“Romana is great!! She takes such good care of my baby!! Whether for a long vacation or a quick overnight, I never have to worry about Lucea’s well-being. Thank you Romana!!”


“We cannot say kinder things about Catherine, she truly is the dog fairy godmother! We are so happy to have someone locally to watch our two furbabies. She kept our girls safe and happy while we were away and we could not ask for anything more.”


“Marta is a great pet sitter. She came over two times before I actually needed her to get acquainted with my pets. She did everything that was expected and even sent us pictures while we were away. I would definitely use Marta again.”


About: I've taken care of dogs and other pets since I was a kid. Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets while they were away. I currently work afternoons on a golf course in Doral and am available to walk, feed, and check in on your pets any day before 11AM. I have a fenced in back yard with a pool if your pet gets too hot and likes to swim. Also have a 7 month old friendly and playful French bulldog if your pet likes to have company.


“Jackie has come to the rescue for myself and husband while vacationing in Lauderdale. We have our small 14 year old Maltese with us, and had no choice but to take him with us. He doesn’t do well at boarding facilities. I decided to get a dog sitter with the hopes of finding someone asap that not only takes good care of my dog, but is friendly with myself and husband too. It’s hard to trust good people. Jackie is wonderful and accommodating to the times we need. Will use her again in the future when I’m back in Lauderdale. Highly recommend!”


About: Hi, I’m Kristina! 🐾 I’ve always had a deep love for animals and understand that pets are family. I grew up around dogs and cats, so I know how important it is to give them the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I’m also comfortable following any special instructions, whether it’s medication, training reinforcement, or a specific routine. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll treat them like my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐶🐱💛 Currently I am working from home, so 99% I am at home and will be happy to take care of your baby and take a great care of them. Ensuring your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority.I create a calm, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels safe and happy. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, providing them regular meals, playtime, and plenty of attention. 🐾 In my home: I make sure the space is pet-friendly, free from hazards, and full of cozy spots for rest and play. Whether your pet needs a quiet place to relax or a fun space to stay active, I adapt to their needs to ensure they feel at home. I also have a yard where we can walk even more often, safe and beautiful. I understand that trust is key when it comes to pet care, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—with love, patience, and care. 💕

“Nothing brings me more nerves than days away from my pup, my separation anxiety is far worse. Caroline did an amazing job with Thelo! Regular updates on his walks, photos, and giving him the affection he always needs. Would highly recommend her for a house-sitting stay to take care of your beloved pet”


“New to Wilton Manors and found Cory. I felt comfortable in our meet and greet. The dogs were well taken care of in spite of my Sr having some mobility issues. I was kept informed and up to date on them both. Will use again him again.”


“From the second the dogs met Julia they were HOOKED and I just knew I was leaving them in the most loving caring and capable hands. She sent daily updates and I was FLOORED to come home and see all my plants were still alive too! (Only because they’re really finicky and I have a hard enough time keeping them alive and thriving!) and coming home after a long week to see that my house is as comfy and cozy as I need it to be after traveling all day was such a relief. If she’s available BOOK HER you’ll feel so lucky you did!!”


“Alycia loved on my pup and took wonderful care the entire time. She helped with his medication and even went out of her own way to give him an easier time with better supplies!”


About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for a variety of breeds — from energetic retrievers and beagles to strong-willed American bulldogs, and now, two playful French bulldogs. I’ve worked closely with professional dog trainers for each of my dogs, and I’m so grateful for that guidance. It’s taught me how to better understand dogs and communicate with them in a calm, consistent way. Over the years, I’ve learned how to adjust to each dog’s unique personality — whether they’re full of energy or need a little extra patience. My friends are always surprised at how quickly their dogs connect with me, even the shy or nervous ones. I love earning a dog’s trust and making them feel safe, seen, and cared for. Your pup will be treated like family, with plenty of attention, affection, and care tailored just for them. As an entrepreneur, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout my day. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day playtime, or sticking to a consistent feeding and potty routine, I’m able to give dogs the time and attention they need to feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any routines or guidelines you provide closely — from feeding schedules and crate time to walk preferences and training cues. Consistency helps dogs feel secure, and I do everything I can to make sure they feel right at home. In my own home, I keep a clean, dog-friendly environment with secure spaces for play and rest. I’m always mindful of what’s within reach and make sure all dogs are supervised during interactions, walks, and mealtimes. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I give my own. I make sure your pup is comfortable in their familiar space and stick to your instructions so there’s no added stress for them — or you. I also check in regularly with updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is happy, safe, and in good hands.

About: Honestly my special skill is animals like to be around me. I’m the type of person who has to stop and say hello to every dog I see. I am confident around animals of all sizes. I have had many different types of experience caring for animals from owning my own pets for the majority of my life, to being an in home pet sitter. I also used to have a job where I was required to go into people’s properties and had to interact with all the dogs that would be there to greet me which helped me develop skills on how to handle different situations, having to read the animals as I navigate their yard. I would like pet care to be my full time occupation. I am available week days and weekends. I am willing to travel if needed. I am comfortable with whatever the owner requests. I am available for at home stays for extended periods of time. I am flexible in my schedule.

“Susana was nice and prompt. She showed up to all Aurue on time and mostly listened to my direction however, I think there was a bit of a language barrier, and we had complications around communication several times. At one point there was some serious confusion that caused me a lot of stress. I appreciate her helping to take care of Aurie, but unfortunately due to Aurie being so young and the communication barriers we encountered, I don’t think she was the best fit for us.”

Never seen him meet a dog he didn’t like”

Robyn G.
“Robyn is amazing! I had the pleasure of having her stay with me and her assistance was invaluable. I live on a mini-ranch in AZ....she came in and acclimated seamlessly with the animals on the property: cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, squirrels, geese, we have it all. Her presence is calming and they loved her. Robyn is clean, ethical, pro any life, and animals and people alike adore her. She's a real one.”

Oakland Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
We have a foster dog with stranger danger and Camille went above and beyond to try and make her feel safe and go slowly with her. Camille was patient, kind and very communicative with our dogs & us while we were away. She did an incredible job and we cannot stress how wonderful she is!!!

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog, Blu! She was so attentive and caring the entire week. Even though Blu was technically alone most of the time, it never felt like it — she made sure he was loved and looked after like he was her own. The regular updates and adorable photos were such a comfort, and Blu looked so happy and relaxed the whole time. I completely trust her and now consider her my go-to sitter for any future travel. Highly recommend!

Darius was amazing he made an incredible connection with both dogs for 1 week of in house dog sitting He stayed in touch via text and photos which rally made us feel comforted and good He was always on time and thoughtful and diligent with the care of our pups especially they their 4th of July fireworks anxiety! we would absolutely recommend Darius and plan to use him again for our next trip Thanks Darius!

Catherine was fantastic, and I would highly recommend her. She treated our pet like a long, lost friend... Lots of attention and lots of communication with us on a daily basis. We returned home to find our cat happy and our home well cared for too. Thank you, Cathy!

Genesis did a great job with our dog Keenu who is a senior that can sometimes be cranky. She listened to all of our requirements for him and was able to keep him comfortable during a house sit. Would recommend her especially for people with pets that have extra needs. Thank you!

Nothing brings me more nerves than days away from my pup, my separation anxiety is far worse. Caroline did an amazing job with Thelo! Regular updates on his walks, photos, and giving him the affection he always needs. Would highly recommend her for a house-sitting stay to take care of your beloved pet

I highly recommend Vadim to anyone looking for a dependable dog sitter. Within about 10–15 minutes my dogs quickly got acquainted with Vadim and by the time I left I immediately received a video with one of my dogs already snuggling up and asking for belly rubs. I felt very reassured that my dogs were in good hands and appreciated the update videos and pictures while I was away. Thank you Vadim!

From the second the dogs met Julia they were HOOKED and I just knew I was leaving them in the most loving caring and capable hands.

Lexy was great! She replied right away to my first inquiry, and set up a meet and greet for the next day. While I was away, she kept in touch and was super responsive. When I got home, the house was clean and neat, and Ernie seemed fine for the experience. Easily a 5-star sit. Ernie says he hopes to see her again!

Christina was absolutely amazing. Our dog is a service dog and usually is with us 24/7, but we were going into some foreign countries that had a lot of outbreaks of viruses affecting animals and we chose not to take her. It really worried us about where she was going to be, but after meeting Christina and her taking care of her one day as we were doing I told her we can't couldn't take her on it her, we felt confident that we had chosen the right person. She was amazing with Aurora, and I would highly recommend her as a sitter,
