About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid and formally pet sitting off and on for 20 years. I am experienced administering medication and providing special meals for pets with dietary restrictions. I’m currently pet sitting full time so I have time for walks, breakfast or lunch visits and overnight stays. Sorry but at this time I’m not able too board at my home at this time. For every meet & greet we will go over your pet’s needs in detail to ensure they have a comfortable time in your absence. We will cover food, walks, favorite toys, sleeping habits and more!

“Emma was a lifesaver! She jumped on a last minute request to take care of my dogs and spoiled them with love, cuddles, and care. She kept me updated the whole time, which really put me at ease, and treated them like her own. My dogs were so happy with her, I’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you Emma!!!❤️”


“This was my first time having somebody else take care of my dogs and home while I was gone and I couldn’t be happier. Everything was just how I left it (or better) when we got home, and my dogs absolutely adore her.”


“Eleanor was great! Would definitely work with her again. She was willing to come the day before to meet my dog, brought in a package that came, and sent us pictures while we were gone. She took great care of our dog by taking her on an extra long walk. She also had great communication through the day letting us know when she got there/left. She did amazing!”


“Marie-Pierre was the perfect fit for our full house (2 dogs, including a puppy, and one cat). She sent regular updates with pictures and videos and was so attentive to all our boys. Can’t wait to have her sit for us again!”


“Andrew was absolutely wonderful. Attentive, understanding and respectful. He made me feel at ease leaving our pups in his care. I'm not super trusting when leaving them in the care of others, but he followed my instructions and listened to any concerns that I had. He was great! We are hoping he is available in the future to continue to care for our pups! Thanks, Andrew!”

Additionally I provide pet sitting for family and friends, and participate actively in the local pet community with my two beautiful dogs. As I establish myself here on Rover, I am happy to accommodate the needs of your pet and family. Open communication is a must for reliability and for the best care of your furry friend! As we start this journey together, I would prefer to care for you dog(s) in the environment they feel most safe in. Any further services may be discussed as needed.

About: Since I was 5 years old I have known the love and joy animals and pets bring to people and especially to me! I have had the most experience with puppies and dogs my whole life, I have just recently become a new cat mom and we have an unbreakable bond now! I am more than happy and excited to show all the love to your fur babies as well! 🐶🐱💝 I am almost always in my house all day so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies during the week and weekends! I always make sure pets feel safe and loved in their own environment. I’ll respect your home, follow all instructions closely, and keep things calm and clean. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just giving extra cuddles, your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I’ll also send regular updates and photos to keep you at ease!

About: I have two cats, Mochi and Princess, and two dogs—Missy, a French Bulldog, and Yoka, an English Bulldog. I've been working as a surgical assistant at a veterinary hospital for nearly four years. In my role, I monitor patients under anesthesia and support them through the recovery process. I’m also experienced in administering medication to both cats and dogs. Animals are truly my passion, and I’m deeply committed to providing the highest level of care to every animal I encounter. I’m always here for all pet parents and committed to giving every fur baby the care, love, and attention they truly deserve. What you need i am here. My yard is fully fenced and divided into two safe turf-covered areas—perfect for playtime! Whether your pet needs help with crate training or just wants a cozy spot in bed, I’m happy to make them feel right at home.

About: I’ve been around and taken care of animals since I can remember, so I have about 30 years of experience! I have several pets of my own at home and I have 3+ years of experience as a paid pet sitter. I’ve taken care of dogs on a day to day basis whether that was for a daily walk or a check in to make sure they take a quick potty break and have food and water, and I even have plenty of experience with boarding dogs for up to 2 weeks while their owners were away on trips. I make sure to give timely updates and send LOTS of cute photo check-ins as well. I also have experience with making sure they get their proper medication doses, and/or special dietary needs. You can feel confident that when you book with me your pets will be provided with the utmost love, care, and safety. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!!! 😊 I currently work part time as an uber driver, and my brother and I own our own ice cream business. I choose my own hours so my schedule is highly flexible! I have the freedom to come home and check in with dogs several times a day as needed and there is usually someone home to do a quick check in with them as well if absolutely necessary as added assurance. However, walking and making sure your pup gets as much time and care as they deserve is not an issue for me, I find it easy to accommodate my daily schedule around them. I have a HUGE dog park like yard for your pup to run around in. I also have 3 small, friendly dogs for your pup to play with if desired for them to have social interaction with other dogs for fun. I also have a large enclosed pet patio that I can board your dog in overnight or during the day if you’d like them in a spacious, enclosed area with lots of toys and things to keep them company. However, if you prefer them to be indoors with me I can definitely have them stay and sleep in my place for overnight boarding! I can also take them for walks easily in my neighborhood. I find that caring for animals is very therapeutic for me, especially going on a nice dog walk through the neighborhood. I take the initiative to ensure the type of care for your animals that I would like someone to give to my own.

About: 💖 I care for every dog like they’re my own. 🧘🏻♀️ I adjust to their pace and personality. 📸 I always send photos and updates. 🏠 If I care for them at home, they feel like family. 🌟 I do it with real love — not just for the money. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make time for it in my routine. I keep my schedule flexible to give each pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or overnight care, I plan my week around their needs to make sure they feel loved and safe. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my home or in the client’s home, I focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. At my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and follow their usual routine. At the client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, walking times, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure every pet gets personalized care, attention, and lots of love.

About: I’ve been an animal owner on and off throughout my entire life. For the past two years, I’ve been caring for both small and large animals, including but not limited to four dogs, several goats, a pony, some pigs, and a whole bunch of chickens. I am comfortable with the varied temperaments and personalities of different animals, but at the end of the day they all need the same things: love, nurturing, food, shelter, and some enriching activity. I can perform basic training with dogs and puppies as long as there are ample training treats. Sit, stay, down, spin, and shake are included. I can administer oral medications to dogs, be it in peanut butter or simply placing in their mouth. I can brush your dog for as long as they want. Living on an open ranch allows me to offer these things to new animal friends. I’d love to take care of your furry friend for the day! I am currently available 7 days a week for dog walking, and I am available Monday-Friday for overnight house sitting. I work part time at my friend’s ranch, which takes 2-3 hours of my day. Outside of that I am available during regular work hours for dog walking and dog sitting. My schedule is very open. I am gentle, patient, and nurturing to all animals. I can be assertive as needed, and I build great relationships with other people’s furry friends. I have four other dogs and a variety of other animals living on the property where I reside. Each animal has their own distinct personality, but all are extremely friendly and love making new friends.

Palm City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Beth was great! She and my dog Frank got along very well from first meeting (when he tends to be quite excited and vocal). I had complete confidence having her stay in my home and take care of Frank. When my plans were cut short due to illness, she was kind and understanding and worked with me to coordinate when I'd return. Communication was excellent before, during and after. I will definitely have her stay with Frank again.

Silvia watched my dog Simone for 8 days. Simone is special needs and is pretty scared of the world and Sylvia did a fantastic job watching her. Simone was happy and calm when we got home and it was clear she spent a lot of time with her making her more comfortable. Thank you Silvia and I look forward to having you watch Simone again in the future. Definitely will have you watch Simone in the future!
