“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”

“Absolutely fantastic! Robyn and Steven are punctual, communicative, and very friendly. They sat with my storm-anxious dog through bad weather and even with no phone signal on our trip, I had no doubt they were providing the best care to our families sweet pets. Can not recommend them enough!”

“Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!”

About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter who truly enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have reliable transportation to your furbabies. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including personal care, drop-ins, in-home sitting, training my own dogs, and raising puppies and litters of cats. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always follow care instructions closely. I currently do not work so I am available any day or time throughout the week and weekend. I have no preference for time of day or time of night. While in a clients home I’ll give your fur baby all the attention in the world but also respect when an animal wants their own space. I’m quick to recognize body language on an animal. I’ll always be checking food and water. Play with them if any toys are available
“I can’t speak highly enough of Cathryn! She took such great care of our two Frenchies, and our home, while we were out of the country for two weeks. We knew they were in good hands and we appreciated her taking care of some things around our home.”

“Sarah did an amazing job with out two dogs! One of our dogs is older and is on several medications. Sarah did a great job taking extra care to make sure she got what she needed! She sent us pictures and videos daily. She left the house looking perfect! We will definitely be using her again!”

“Pam is wonderful. She is not only reliable and communicative with me, but she is most importantly terrific with my pups. Both Clarence and Mary seemed to love her on sight. She worked well with me when our plans changed and was always agreeable. Pam is everything one hopes for as a house-sitter, pet-sitter. She cared for my home in a way that was respectful and consistent, but most of all, she cared for my furbabies. Thanks, Pam! We know we will reach out again! Best, Whitney”

“Cindy was great! I hadn’t left my dogs overnight for a long time with one of them being a senior. But I felt comfortable and not worried with Cindy staying at my home with them. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos. Will book again for sure!”

“We had such a great experience with Sidnee! She was incredibly patient and caring with our six dogs. She followed every detail perfectly, kept us updated with Ron and his food and making sure he ate, paying attention to Kahlua and Baileys behavior and resolving any issues or changing things if needed. Her communication was amazing the entire time. She kept us updated, listened to our notes, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. You can really tell she cares about the dogs. Highly recommend! 💛”

“Alison is very prompt and reliable. She updated us with pictures of our pet. She does a remarkable job! Will definitely use her many times more. Give her a shot. You won’t be disappointed.”


About: I’ve taken care of my personal dogs as well as family dogs for years. I love to play with them and just sit and cuddle with them as well. I am currently a graduate student at Jacksonville University. I am available after 2pm everyday, and on the weekends I can do all day! I am also usually up pretty late at nights so can do late night walks/sitting as well. I am a very trustworthy person.

“Mandy did such a wonderful job taking care of Brownie while we were out of town. It was Brownie’s first stay as an only dog as his sister recently passed the rainbow bridge so we were nervous about leaving him for so many days but Mandy eased the worry. She took many photos and gave regular updates. We will 100 percent use her again.”


About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and my real-life experience caring for them through every stage of life. I’ve owned and cared for three dogs of my own, and I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and pets with medical needs. I cared for my own senior dog through cancer treatments, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important gentle, consistent care is for older pets. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering basic medications if needed, and giving extra attention to pets that may need a slower pace or additional comfort. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and getting cuddles, I make sure they feel safe and at home while you’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. After retiring from corporate America, I now have the time and flexibility to dedicate my attention to caring for pets and making sure they receive the love and consistency they need. Because I have an open and flexible schedule, I’m able to follow each pet’s routine closely, whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or simply spending quality time with them so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I truly enjoy being around animals, so pet care is something I look forward to and prioritize each day. My availability allows me to be attentive, dependable, and responsive to both pets and their owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any special care directions exactly as provided. I spend quality time with each pet through walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so they feel relaxed and cared for in their own environment. For cats and kittens, I make sure litter boxes are kept clean, feeding schedules are followed, and they receive gentle interaction and monitoring. Because pets often feel most comfortable in their own home, I take extra care to keep their environment calm and consistent. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
Ortega Farms pet parents share their Rover experiences
Shanna took exceptional care of my two senior dogs while I was away, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Caring for senior pets can be challenging since they require daily medications and extra attention, but Shanna handled everything flawlessly. She was incredibly sweet, patient, and caring with them, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Throughout the stay, she sent multiple updates and photos each day, so I always knew they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It’s clear that Shanna genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter.
Cindy was wonderful! She took great care of my 2 fur babies while out of the country for 2 weeks. She is a great communicator and sent us photos often with updates on how things were going. Our flight was delayed a few hours and she was willing to stay longer to ensure our dog didn’t have to wait too long for his next potty break. I highly recommend Cindy and would definitely rebook for future stays.

Dana watched our dogs for us while out of town over the holidays & I can’t say enough great things! Great communication, lots of pictures, & she was so kind & caring. Not only did she take good care of our dogs, but also our home. Highly recommend & hoping she’s available the next time we travel!

Phillip was great with my dogs! I have 2 puppies, a 2year old and 3yr old puppy full of energy! Phillip took them for a lot of walks and sent pictures of them playing outside getting out there energy. I had to change plans last minute and add an extra day, and Phillip was very accommodating and always quick to respond!
