About: I’ve had dogs since I was 10 years old and currently have a 4yr old disabled Weimaraner. I love spending time with my dog and making sure shes happy and healthy. I’ve had a senior dog and understand they need round the clock care (medicine, exercise, extra potty breaks). I live in a single family house with a completely fenced backyard. There’s more than enough space for your baby to play and have a good time. I understand that every dog has their own personality. Likes, dislikes, silly quirks. Let me know all there is to know about your pup so I can make them feel at home. I am home 24/7 so your pet will have round the clock care. I currently have a 4yo Weimaraner and she gets fed twice a day and exercises in the backyard. She is disabled and daily walks are not possible, but I still give her the daily exercise she needs. I had a 16.5yo Yorkie with a few disabilities. I know that older and disabled pets need a little more TLC to make their days comfortable. I have a completely fenced in backyard and ample space inside the home as well. If you prefer your pet to be crated at any point during the stay just let me know. Additionally, I am able to administer prescribed pill and/or liquid medication if your pet needs it. I like to sit outside on the back porch so your pup will have plenty of outside time and fresh air.
About: I’ve cared for family and friends’ dogs for years, and I’m always the first person they ask when they need someone reliable to watch, walk, or care for their pets. I love animals and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m flexible with my schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company and comfortable while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in any environment. I follow all instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm space, and give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care while their owners are away.
“Alexys was very attentive to the needs of my cats and was able to assist with watching them on very short notice. I appreciate her tidying up after the cats and even extra with my mail items.”
“Carlie was wonderful! She came by the day before to meet my cats, which I really appreciated, and immediately put me at ease. She was incredibly friendly, professional, and clearly cared about making sure my cats were comfortable. While I was away, she took great care of them and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Carlie to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, and I would happily book her again!”
“Kathy was just amazing! I was new to the area and didn’t know anyone and she was so good with the dogs and made them feel comfortable while we were gone. I will definitely use her again.”
“I appreciate Leah so much for dropping in last minute when I had a family emergency to take care of my 2 cats. She was quick, self-sufficient, communicative, and friendly. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs :)”

About: Growing up with my mom owning a successful dog sitting business for the past 11 years, I’ve spent years around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve helped care for pets by walking them, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand the importance of being patient and caring to each dog’s needs. I will treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently working part-time as a server, which allows me to dedicate my mornings to dog walking. I’m available every day from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM, making me a great option for early morning walks before work or school. I’m reliable and committed to giving your dog a safe, fun, and active walk to start their day! Your dog’s safety and well being are my top priorities on every walk. I’ll always make sure collars or harnesses are securely fitted, follow your instructions, and adjust each walk to your dog’s energy level and needs. Growing up around my mom’s dog sitting business, Treasure Coast Pet Sitter, has taught me how to handle dogs with care. I’ll keep you updated after each walk so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I've had an extensive amount of time with animals since I was a kid. Caring for my own family pets including snakes, lizards, cats, dogs and hamsters. I've always been happily willing to foster kittens and puppies who have been abandoned even at a very young age. All of which, have gone on to live healthy happy lives. As I've gotten older I've continued to foster any animal in need and more professionally take on pet sitting. While continuing to add my touch of love and compassion with each pet in my care. I'm currently working part time remotely so I have plenty of time to have engaging one on one time with your pet. This flexibility also allows me the opportunity to take same day requests. Pet care can vary per household and animal needs. I'm happy to follow any detailed directions provided to make sure I can guarantee a safe environment for the pet or pets. Taking special caution in entering and exiting homes, making sure all unsafe items for your pet are not accessible and generally keeping a comfortable environment for your pet(s).

“Thank you so much for taking care of my kitten! You were super accommodating and even helped out with feeding our fish :) I will definitely reach out again for help in the future!”
About: I bring over 10 years of hands-on animal care experience, working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, Cats, birds and reptiles. My background includes serving as an Animal Control Sergeant for a local government shelter for five years. In this role, I was responsible for the daily care and handling of shelter animals, including walking, feeding, and monitoring their health. I also conducted investigations into animal welfare cases and responded to “manner of keeping” concerns, which gave me extensive experience reading animal behavior and ensuring safe, appropriate handling in a wide range of situations. In addition, I worked as an in-home foster for service dog organizations, raising and training puppies for approximately 14 months at a time. This experience required consistency, patience, and attention to detail, including early stage training, socialization, and preparing dogs for advanced service work. Outside of my professional roles, I have been dog sitting and providing pet care services for over a decade. I am experienced in managing multiple dogs at once, including those with special diets, medications, and unique care needs. I also have a strong working knowledge of animal health and have collaborated closely with veterinarians. I am trained to recognize signs of medical distress and can respond appropriately in emergency situations to ensure pets receive prompt care. As a dog owner myself, I currently care for five rescue dogs ranging from 8 to 80 pounds, giving me daily, hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, energy levels, and personalities. I am confident handling animals of all sizes and temperaments and pride myself on providing safe, reliable, and attentive care. I work remotely, which allows me to maintain a highly flexible schedule throughout the day. I am able to provide consistent care and multiple visits as needed, including morning, midday, and evening check ins. I keep my service area intentionally focused so I can ensure reliability, punctuality, and high quality care for each client. If preferred, I am also available for in home pet sitting, allowing me to provide attentive, continuous care and companionship while maintaining your pet’s normal routine. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every animal in my care is always my top priority. I am happy to follow each pet’s established routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, crate training, or any specific instructions provided by the owner. I am comfortable walking dogs on leash with proper control and supervision, as well as allowing safe outdoor time in fenced-in yards when appropriate. I approach every animal with patience and attentiveness, ensuring they feel secure, respected, and well cared for at all times.

David took such great care of Leo during a drop-in visit while I was away for a long day of Pilates suspension training. Knowing Leo was in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind so I could stay focused on my training. David is dependable, communicative, and always goes above and beyond to make sure Leo is happy and well cared for. I truly trust him and am so grateful to have someone like him looking after my boy. Highly recommend!
She took such great care of our dog, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. She was kind, attentive, and kept us updated, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about him, and you can tell he really likes her too! We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
