“Mariah took great care of my dog. We were living in a new home and she helped him to adjust and become very comfortable and confident in his new environment. She was extremely professional and easy to communicate with before and during her visits. Highly recommend her services!”
“Jordan was fantastic. She took great care of our dog and our house while we were out of town. She provided regular updates and great pictures of our pup. We would absolutely recommend Jordan to all of our friends!”
“Haley was amazing. Mowgli's never been calm even with us around but with Haley around, he was something else..(in a good way). Definitely booking her if we're ever back in Tampa! Thank you, Haley : )”
“I highly recommend Jennifer. She is responsible, pleasant, articulate and was great with my dog, Willie. Willie is on daily medicine and a supplement. He also can be anxious about being left behind/alone. She took great care of him! She checked rather than assumed she knew what to do when something came up. I will be looking to have her as a house/dog sitter again.”
“We have used Rebecca several times to watch our dogs and our home, and as always she doesn’t disappoint. She keeps us updated and sends us photos of our fur babies. We love her and so do our dogs!”
About: As a lifelong big guy and animal lover, I bring calm, confident, consistent care to pets of all sizes and ages with experience with men's, mobility, grooming, and affection routines. I care for my own fur children but my current work doesn't require my attention for more than couple hours a day so I am very open to scheduling arrangements around any time frame. My girls thrive in a calm and consistent environment so that's exactly what I try my best to provide. I prioritize safety at all times, keeping steady routines, closely monitor behavior, and always using pet-safe products. I am always mindful of entrances (mostly not to hit my head) leashes, and feeding times, and I'll never leave pets unattended. I like to build trust with animals through quiet presence, patience, and clear intentions communicated. My goal is to make your animal companion feel secure, comfortable, and cared for like family.
“Rhoda did a great job taking care of my cat while I was on vacation! She went above and beyond and by the pictures she sent I could tell my cat was enjoying his “vacation” as well. I will definitely be booking her for future sittings! Thank you, Rhoda!”
“Becky is a Doggy sitter SuperStar! She is extremely attentive to my fur babies. She keeps me regularly updated with pics and videos which makes me feel so secure when I am away. We just absolutely love Becky!!! She has a sincere love for pets, I am so thankful we found a responsible and friendly as Becky!”
About: I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years and will give your fur babies anything they need. I work from home with a flexible schedule and have a fully fenced in backyard. This allows your pet to go out whenever needed or longer walks. I do have a cat, but he fine with other cats and indifferent to dogs. I work from home during the week on a standard work schedule. I can watch your pet any day needed. Although I work full-time, I make my own schedule and can visit your pet at any time or take them outside if staying at my place. I inquire of the pet owner prior to any boarding or appointment on pet specific needs and will schedule as such. I also have an extra bedroom that can be used for their bedroom as needed.
“Outstanding. It is hard to find a person to trust with your home, but I give this individual five stars without reservation. Highly recommend.”
“Mariana was an absolute gem! She cared for our two dogs in-home and immediately made them feel comfortable with her warm, friendly, and loving energy. She kept us updated with adorable photo check-ins and her communication was always clear and prompt. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we returned—it’s clear she treated them like her own. I’ll definitely be booking her again!!”
“Riley was the best! She was able to work with me last minute and was the sweetest with Charlie. She checked in with me throughout the whole visit and made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup. I will definitely use Riley again!”
“Rebecca did an amazing job. She stayed with my girls, took them on walks, and went above and beyond to send me photos and videos of them and keep me updated while I was traveling. They absolutely love her and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Molly was amazing! She was our first non-family member to watch our puppy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated with pictures throughout the day. It was clear our pup was in great hands and loved being with her. We’ll absolutely use Molly again in the future!”

Ridgewood Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Olivia came through in a pinch when my usual dog sitter had to cancel at the last minute. She sent me updates and was responsive whenever I messaged to check in while I was away. Thanks, Olivia - I appreciate that I could go on my trip and count on you to take good care of my girl!
Ayla was amazing!! She watched my dog (Morty) for 4 nights and did a great job. She sent updates throughout the days and went out of the way to get my dog some chicken when he was feeling great. She left my house very tidy and Morty very happy. I highly recommend her!
Sydney was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, she was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive to my pets’ needs. I felt 100% confident leaving my animals in her care — and they absolutely loved her! She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She didn’t just stop at feeding and walking — Sydney went the extra mile with cuddles, playtime, and making sure each of my pets felt loved and comfortable. It was clear she truly cared about them as if they were her own. Not only did she take phenomenal care of my animals, but she also looked after my home with the utmost respect. I came back to a clean, well-kept space and happy pets
Michele was amazing. She gave my puppy Lila a grand adventure while I was out of town for the weekend. She sent plenty of pictures and updates to keep me informed. I know my pup was in great hands and looked so happy in all of her pictures. I’m so lucky to have found Michele to house and dog sit for me, she made it less stressful and easy! Will definitely use her again!
Paige & Nathan were absolutely wonderful house sitters for our two golden retrievers, Parker and Jackson! They were communicative, respectful of our home, and most importantly, gave our pups so much love and attention. We came home to two very happy dogs and a spotless house. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, reliable sitters!
Nusa was an amazing pet and house sitter while we were gone! She took such good care of my babies and even did some extra cleaning around the house! She sent pictures every day, which we loved and we were so assured that our pets were getting the best care!
Ariana did a great job of watching my dogs and taking care of my home! All of the things I asked of her, brining in packages and mail, filing up pool, etc on top of taking care of the dogs- she did it all. She also sent pictures and was very responsive to texts. Will definitely rebook!
