“Ruth was awesome!!! My kitties didnt sem stressed or neglected when i got back and their area was clean. I also love that she sent photos each day. I plan on using Ruth again. Thanks so much!!!!”


“This was our first time booking DeDe and she will absolutely be our go-to person to care for our 3 dogs whenever we are out of town! She was awesome in handling all 3. (One is a senior pup, one is super shy, and the third one can just get too crazy excited at times and be a pain.) Dede went above and beyond to care for all 3 and I’m so grateful to/for her!!”


“Matt and Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of my cats. It was so great getting pictures everyday and they took so many great ones! It’s nice not having to worry that your pets are fed and taken care of. I’d definitely ask for them again!”



“Jami took great care of my fur babies in my home. She made sure to communicate any issues or concerns she may have had. Loved seeing the pictures since I was already missing them.”


About: I’m interested in this position because pets have a soft spot in my heart. I grew up with two dogs and four cats. We sometimes let in strays as well. I was the one responsible for feeding my pets and cleaning up the litter box. My own canine family started when I was 18. I have experience with dogs with diabetes, orthopedic reconstruction and chronic systemic arthritis. I am confident that I can care for and love on your pet while you’re away so you have few concerns about your loved one. I have a very flexible schedule. I am a stay at home mom of teenagers. I have the ability to care for your pet based on your schedule and needs. I offer care in the client’s home. I will follow the instructions the client tells me. My own dog has such a schedule and routine of when to go out vs eating so I completely understand the need for routine. I will always make sure safety comes first. If there isn’t a fence then I would prefer to have the pet on a leash. I would never want a pet getting loose and running off.

“Kylee is amazing!! This was my first time using Rover for our boxer dog. I was nervous to allow a stranger into our home for drop in visits but Kylee really made me feel at ease. I could not have asked for a better experience! Kylee was always on time, extremely reliable, quick with all communications and provided daily photos and details of her visit. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again!”


“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”


“Teagan was a pleasure to have sit our pitbull! She gave me peace of mind while we were out of town. She followed the instructions I gave her and sent pictures of her time with our boy! We will be using Teagan again and I recommend anyone else to use her as well.”


“A++ Thank you Andria for doing such a great job caring for Daisy Duke! What can I say, you are a kind spirit and it shows in your love of animals. I especially appreciated your prior willingness to come and visit with us to allow Daisy to see you as a friend and recognize you when you cared for her in my absence. Couldn’t be more pleased with how well it worked out, I know she was well taken care of and the pics you sent me to keep me posted really put my mind at ease. A very big thanks!!!! Steve and Daisy Duke”


About: I’ve always had a big heart for dogs. Caring for them comes naturally to me as I truly love being around them, giving them attention, love, and companionship. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m very flexible and love spending time with dogs. I can adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick to their usual routines, give them lots of attention, and keep their environment clean and calm. Playtime, walks, and cuddle time are always included!

“She was absolutely fantastic! Had to book her last minute due to another sitter not responding. She came over that night since we were leaving in the morning. Followed all directions and sent lots of pictures. Could tell she gave my pup lots of love. Will definitely book again! Thank you Isabella!”


“Karla has been absolutely wonderful with Bow & Max! She’s very responsive and has great availability. I know my pups are safe and well taken care of ❤️ They are always happy in the pupdate pictures I get! Thank you Karla! 😃”

About: Hi there! I'm a certified canine trainer with a passion for working dogs and a heart for every pup I meet. I earned my certification in Advanced Canine Training in North Carolina, specializing in bite work, tracking, and scent detection. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs—from spirited puppies needing obedience to experienced working breeds mastering complex skills. I'm skilled in using training tools like slip leads, prong collars, e-collars, and gentle leaders, always focusing on what’s safest and most effective for each individual dog. I’ve also studied veterinary medicine and have hands-on experience in vet tech responsibilities such as administering medications, assisting with wound care, monitoring vitals, and providing post-operative care. Aggressive or reactive dogs don’t intimidate me—in fact, I welcome the challenge with patience and understanding. I recently lost my beloved 10-year-old dog to cancer, which deepened my commitment to treating every animal as if they were my own. I currently work three 12-hour shifts each week at a hospital and attend school part-time, which leaves me with flexible availability for pet sitting and dog care. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands dogs and respects their unique personalities, I’d love to be your go-to caretaker. I currently work three 12-hour shifts each week at Lakeland Regional Health, and while those workdays rotate weekly, I still have consistent availability. I also attend school two days a week for just a few hours, which means I have plenty of flexibility to offer pet care services. Because my work schedule changes weekly, I’m able to plan pet sitting, walks, and drop-ins around your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s early morning routines, evening check-ins, or full-day companionship, I do my best to be available when it matters most. On my days off, I dedicate uninterrupted time to giving pets the attention, structure, and love they deserve. Creating a safe and comfortable environment is my top priority—whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I use secure kennels to provide pets with a cozy, structured space, especially during rest periods or overnight stays. For transport, I have two large, crash-tested Ruffland kennels in my vehicle to ensure every ride is as safe as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, I take every effort to follow your instructions to the letter. I believe consistency is key, so I maintain your pet’s routine—from feeding times and walks to their favorite toys or sleeping spots. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first.


“Mindy and her daughter were amazing! They made sure my cat was taken care of, provided timely feedback and photos, and went above and beyond in every way! I would not hesitate to have them care for my pets again!”


About: I would love to take care of your dog or cat children! I am in an apartment and have a 4 & 6 year old who both love all animals like momma!

About: I volunteered for 2 1/2 years at a local pet shelter and have been pet sitting for 10 years now! It doesn’t even feel like a job to me!! Sadly, my dog (boxer) has crossed the rainbow bridge but I have grown up around pitbulls, Rottweilers, mastiffs, Chinese cresteds and yorkies! I also love any opportunity I can to take care of a feline! I would love the opportunity to care for your animal and help keep him or her as happy as can be! I work a full time job, Monday-Friday so my availability is mainly evenings and weekends. I am available for overnight stays as long as you are okay with me going to work during the week! I am in office 3 days and can work from the house 2 days a week. I follow all house rules and make sure the pet gets the same love and attention they do on a daily basis! The priority is making sure they are happy and comfortable!

Chloe U.
“Chloe was a volunteer under me at our local SPCA, she is a solid handler, kind and compassionate as well as dedicated and committed. Since then she has become our pet/house sitter for anytime we go out of town. She is reliable and trustworthy. We have 5 dogs, 2 cats and a tortoise and every time we come home from a trip they show to have been well cared for happy and the house stays clean! What more could you ask for? Aside from that, anytime she visits she has a “fan club” (all of our dogs & cats) hovering around her and sitting by her. I highly recommend Chloe for all of your dog walking & pet sitting needs.”
