About: Animals have always been a very important part of my life. I have cared for dogs and cats throughout my entire life and have a genuine love for all pets. While growing up in Peru, I rescued numerous abandoned dogs and cats, helping them recover by providing care, food, and lots of affection until they regained their health. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, dedication, and paying close attention to the individual needs of each animal. Since moving to the United States, I have cared for two dogs and one cat, providing them with a life filled with love, comfort, and attention. My most recent dog had a disability and required daily medication, a special diet, and additional care. Through this experience, I learned the importance of maintaining routines, administering medications properly, and being attentive to any special needs a pet may have. I strive to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I am responsible, caring, and highly observant of their physical and emotional needs. My priority is to ensure that your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available during weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding, ensuring that they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, and daily routines. I maintain a clean, safe, and calm environment, supervise pets at all times, and make sure they have fresh water, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection so they feel comfortable and happy.
About: Hi! My name is Laritza and caring for animals has always been my passion. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and I truly treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I currently spend most of my time at home with my baby, which allows me to provide a calm and loving environment where pets receive lots of attention, supervision, and affection throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and can feel comfortable and safe. I live in a safe condominium with nice areas for walking dogs and I also have a small fenced patio where pets can safely enjoy fresh air. I always make sure every pet follows their usual routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of love. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel relaxed knowing your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved while you are away. I currently spend most of my time at home, which allows me to provide constant attention and care for the pets I look after. I also have a baby, which means I naturally maintain a calm and home-centered routine. This is actually a positive environment for pets because they receive plenty of company and supervision throughout the day. I always make sure pets get their walks, playtime, and the attention they need. If needed, I also have family support to help with childcare so I can fully focus on walks or specific pet needs. My schedule is flexible, and I always adapt to each pet’s routine to make them feel comfortable and safe. I live in a safe and peaceful condominium with several areas perfect for walking dogs. I also have a small fenced patio where pets can safely enjoy fresh air. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. Because I spend most of my time at home caring for my baby, pets are rarely left alone and receive lots of supervision, love, and attention. I always prioritize safety, following each owner’s instructions carefully and making sure every pet feels relaxed and cared for as if they were at home.

About: Animal lover, pet-less at the moment, but with lots of animals in my life. I have plenty of love, patience, cuddles, and care to give to your furry family member, big or small. I know how important and stressful finding a reliable place or a trustworthy person is. For over 20 years now neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to take care of their beloved pets at their house or mine. I have a very welcoming home with couches to surf, plenty of laps to sit on, lots of treats(or not), walks and playtime. My backyard is enclosed and the community has lots of green areas, several parks, fun walks and a dog park just a car ride away. I don’t mind traveling. I have taken care of two potbelly pigs, two donkeys, a squirrel, and two cats up in Archer, FL. Five cats and an African Gray parrot in Orlando. Several cats and dogs at their homes and mine, and whenever I can, I escape to my friend’s farm to help with the care of their horses. My grand-dog, April, loves to visit and get spoiled! Give me the opportunity to show you how well and at home your baby will feel! I work part-time from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding 7 days a week. I set up beds in the living room and in my office. I also do pottery, and I have my wheel in an enclosed patio with a rug right next to it for my special helpers! I do a walk in the morning and another one about an hour after breakfast followed by some playtime. Then I do bathroom breaks every two hours or as needed. After noon, I work on my pottery and do some gardening in my fenced backyard. Rest assured your pet will never be outside unsupervised. Late afternoon I take them for a longer walk, a bathroom break after dinner, and again before bed. I make sure your baby is active and well exercised, with plenty of time for play, rest, and cuddles! And of course, I will also follow any schedule or routine they may have. I have a pet friendly home with an enclosed patio and fenced backyard, but rest assured your pup will never be left outside unsupervised. Your pet is welcomed on our couches, our laps, and any part of the house they wish to be in. If I have to go out, and no one else is home, I will leave the TV on with relaxing music or pet friendly content playing. I don’t own a crate, but you’re welcome to bring one if your baby is used to staying or sleeping in one. They are welcome to sleep in any of our bedrooms. I usually don’t allow them on my bed but my daughter will be ever so happy to oblige! If I’m caring for your beloved at your home, I will follow any rules you have set up for them, even sleeping with them if necessary!
About: We have 5 animals in the house, we’ve had them since they were puppies and all get along and friendly towards other people and animals. I work from home and take the pups out 5 times a day. Can take them out more if a pup has a weaker bladder. I usually take mine out at the same time but have enough time in the day to take your pup out individually. Everyone really lounges at home while I work or go out but my boy loves to play so we have best of both worlds and doggie beds all over the house if they’re tired or can play in the back yard.
About: I’ve taken care of big dogs such as German Shepherds, Huskies, PitBulls, and American PitBulls and small dogs i’ve taken care of Yorkies, French Bulldog, Chihuahuas, Miniature Poodles, and my own dog a DachShund.I’ve also taken care of cats as well. I’ve had dogs for majority of my life because my family are heavy dog lovers.I had a friend who had dogs and cats so when i went to her house which was a lot I would always help her with all the pets whether its was bathing them or feeding or playing. I also volunteered at a shelter to learn more about how to care for sick dogs or dogs who need extra care and attention and to learn how to give them medicine and to give them love because nobody should go through life and not have love. I have a senior dog who has hip mobility issues so I know how to handle dogs like that with care and tenderness. I wanted something that would let me have a flexible schedule and i wanted to take care of animas so when heard about rover i thought this could be a perfect opportunity In my home I walk and feed my dog every morning and night. We have a mandatory 15-30 minute play time to drain energy and we give enrichment toys. For friends and family i like to ask them for a list of what they do with their animals and feed them because after all its their pet and i respect what is the normality in that home for that pet.
About: Loving care, cozy home, fenced yard, belly rubs, pup spa days, playtime, and daily updates—your dog’s vacation while you’re away! I treat every pup like family and tailor care to their unique needs. Whether it’s fetch, cuddles, or a calming spa moment, your dog will feel right at home. I’m currently an online student with a flexible schedule, so I will be at home 24/7 with the pups (minimized cage/alone times for the pups! often til bed time!) and have plenty of time to care for their needs with walking, outdoor plays, bathing, and a dedicated puppy room. We’re available whenever you need, and your dog’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a cozy, clean environment with plenty of playtime in a huge fenced yard, doggy pool, large play areas ( separating areas for Introverted/Extroverted doggies if needed). On the inside, fully air conditioned rooms, indoor relaxation in the dedicated puppy rooms, and lots of love and attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and special needs. Bathing and spa time are available for extra pampering! I also offer daily updates with photos so you can stay connected.

About: I worked as a kennel technician at Town and Country Animal Hospital and have a year experience doing this professionally. I have also been a veterinary technician for about 3 years now. I have taken care of my families animals. I have 11 pets of my own so I understand their needs. My schedule is very flexible and open. I would be able to visit your animal as many times as you request per day or what you believe is right!

About: I truly love animals and take pet care seriously. I have some experience taking care of my own dog at home, as well as helping care for dogs owned by friends and family. I am patient, responsible, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine since I’m currently working part-time, so I am able to plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I always follow the owner’s instructions and provide care in a safe, clean, and calm environment. I currently live in an on-campus apartment, where I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I respect routines and communicate clearly with owners to ensure pets are safe and well cared for.
About: I love all types of animals, from cats, to rabbits, and even to exotics! But, dogs definitely have a special place in my heart, simply because I have also been a previous dog mom. I’ve had many different dogs throughout my life, from toy breeds to active herding dogs, so no breed is too much for me! I’ve petsat countless of dogs in the past, and I also worked as a vet tech for 2 years, so I have experience with administering meds and giving extra care to sick pets. I promise you that your dog would be incredibly happy under my care! I will take care of them as if they were my own. I am a full-time student who can definitely be flexible on what days to pet sit or dog walk. My maximum amount of drop-in visits are 3. In my home, I bathe my dogs, feed them, take them on long walks, administer anynecessary medication/preventatives, perform nail trims, and clean up after any messes. The same will be done for my future clients’ pets when in their respective homes or in mine.
