“Adrienne has watched Buster and Franky several times and it has been a great experience each time! They love being with Adrienne and Steve and feel right at home. They are treated as part of the family.”
“Katherine was an excellent sitter for my two dogs. She kept me up to date throughout the day and shared pictures and videos of my girls. She took care of my girls as if they were her own - spoiled and pampered. Katherine was great and I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs! I'll definitely call on Katherine again in the future to take care of my girls.”
“Murphy loves coming to stay with Shayla. She eliminates all of our worries about leaving him. Shayla sends pictures and gives our dog love and attention. Would recommend her to everyone.”
“This is my second time having Maxine dog sit for my lil pup, and I’m honestly so grateful I found her. She sends pictures and videos every single day, which is such a comforting bonus when I’m away from him. I was really reluctant at first about using a sitter who wasn’t family, but she’s made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. My pup has a blast with the other dogs she cares for, and the toys plus the spacious outdoor area give him plenty to do. You can tell she truly loves what she does. I feel completely at ease leaving him with her, and I definitely plan to keep coming back.”
“Taylor was super sweet and kind to my two fubabies and I got regular updates. My babies respond fed better than I thought they would because she was u familiar to them. Very pleased and will look her up to watch them again when I need boarding and care for my animals ☺️”
“Amy was amazing. My dog is 16 years old and in early stages of kidney disease. Amy watched her for two weeks while I was away and took such great care of her. She made my dog was eating since she is having a low appetite and even prepped chicken for her. I will definitely book with Amy again. You can really tell she has experience caring for pets at all stages of life!”
“Beautiful home & perfect place for my dog! Her doggies kept mine company, and so did her kids. There is so much yard space (5 acres) to run around, and Diannette and her family cared for Buttercup like their own. He seemed very content in photos she sent. Highly recommend.”
“Left my pups with Lorraine for 12 days and they were very well cared for. They came home happy and tired! Lorraine sent pics and videos daily (usually several times a day). I highly recommend Lorraine and we will definitely be back!”
“Andi took such exceptional care of our Harvey. She treated him as if he were her own puppy and kept me updated on how he was doing. I was a little nervous about leaving him, but that didn’t last long. She let me know how he was eating, getting along with her dog and how much he loved playing with their toddler . This all put me at ease! I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. We will definitely use her again. Thank Andi for taking such good care of our boy🥰”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for the care my dog Blue received! He stayed for a full week and had the best time, he got to play with other dogs, and it was clear he was having so much fun. I got daily updates (which I really appreciated!) and could tell he was in such good hands the whole time. She truly treated him like her own, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Jill and her family took great care of Mila and Titan over Thanksgiving!! I got regular updates and communication was prompt. I am extremely grateful for Jill and will have her watch my doggies any time!!”
“Taylor & Angel boarded my female Whippet Cinnamon for 30 days and did an amazing job. They did everything I requested and more even trimming her nails and giving her a shampoo. They have 2 acres and Cinnamon played every day with their 2 dogs and actually came home in great shape without her extra baby fat. Thank you girls for your fantastic care and love! I'll be asking you to care for my baby again!”
“June was so wonderful! She treated Wilson like he was her own. She sent updates and pictures each day and we were so very grateful to have found her! We will certainly contact her again when we need someone to keep Wilson in The Villages.”
“We are immensely appreciative and pleased with the care Dennis and Adriana have given to our baby, Romeo. Romeo is 15+ years old and blind, therefore, needs special care and attention. Finding the right person to care for our baby when we travel can be stressful. Dennis and Adriana have proven to be an excellent choice. We highly recommend them and will opt for their services again to look after our fur baby in the future.”
“Andrea was great! Before booking we did a playdate just to make sure Prince would be a good fit and my goodness I fell in love immediately! She has a HUGE fenced in yard! Will definitely be booking again! LOVE LOVE LOVE!”
About: I have lots of experience with big animals and small old and young and I also understand that they all can have different needs at different stages of life and I can help with that. I work Monday through Thursday so my Friday and weekends are free to help. I can do early morning walks mid and and evening times too depending on the needs My home is pet proof I do have animals of my own and they love it when new friends come over to play. I do pet sit for friends when they have to go out of town. If you are more comfortable with me coming to you. I always respect your house and fur baby just like my own and keep things clean
“This family was amazing! Went above and beyond our expectations with our little old lady pup! Videos and pictures every day that she was with them! She was spoiled rotten by them and I think she was a little irked that she had to come home at the end of her stay!! We are 100% pleased with our experience with our experience!! Will use again in the future! ❤️”
“Julia and Alllen took a good care of my two beautiful cata They responded to my messages , sent me pictures everyday , and hand fed my cat when she was anxious and refused to eat They are a great pet care giver and i will use their service again”
“I am so glad that I found Carolina and her family. She is a true animal lover, and it shows in how much attention and patience she had put into caring for my cat, Mochi. Carolina went far and above beyond expectations. My Mochi had a big beautiful room with a brightly quilted bunk bed to climb on and plenty of cat trees, scratching posts, and windows in which to luxuriate in the sun. He could also enjoy piped-in music throughout the day and a big flat screen TV. He was warmly welcomed into the family home, roaming freely and playing with Carolina's many pets. He loved his vacation at Carolina's as much as I had enjoyed mine! I might also mention one aspect of this Rover experience that is critical for me and should be important to consider for other pet owners. Carolina keeps her boarding spaces immaculate. Bedding, cushions, and bowls are spotlessly sanitized, and all of her pets are on a rigid flea and worm prevention program, so there is no danger of cross contamination. I am very pleased and feel that my Mochi had a five star hotel experience for a fraction of the price.”

I think is Alexa's fifth stay with Sandra, Alexa always gets good care, and Sandra is flexible to meet our schedule. Her place is very close to home so it's convenient to pick Alexa up on the way home after a trip, this time was a 2-night visit. I never have to worry while I'm away.

There are 510 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ocklawaha. About 94% of Ocklawaha sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
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.
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
