“This was my second time booking with Kylee through Rover, and she continues to be amazing! Missy is always so well cared for, and I can tell she feels comfortable and loved while I’m away. Kylee sends thoughtful updates and is incredibly reliable. It’s such a relief to have someone I can fully trust with Missy, I’ll absolutely keep booking with her!”

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, which truly brings me immense joy. Whether it's spending quality time with them, delivering litters, administering medicine, or giving baths, I'm well-versed in providing the best care. At home, our fun and lively household includes a 3-year-old female labradoodle mix and two cats who mainly keep to themselves. I'm well-prepared to offer a loving and enriching environment for your fur babies too! I'm currently a stay-at-home mom with a passion for staying busy and getting outdoors. I love filling my days with activities, and playing with your pups will be a genuine pleasure for me. Whether it's a game of fetch in the yard or a leisurely walk around the neighborhood, I thrive on ensuring pets are happy, active, and well-cared-for. My flexible schedule means I'm available any time, for as long as needed, to give your furry friends the attention and love they deserve.**We do offer a discount on stays longer than 2 weeks! ** I have a spacious, fenced yard where your pet can play and explore freely. We never leave the doggies unattended in the back yard. My friendly 3-year-old labradoodle loves having playmates and will keep your pet entertained with plenty of fun and exercise. For pets who need some quiet time or separation, I have a separate room for that too. I do have a few kennels available if your doggie prefers to sleep in one or if there are medical or safety reasons for one.

“Freddy and Talena were amazing! They made us feel ao comfortable leaving our fur baby at daycare. We moved from Iowa to Florida and have been searching for another daycare as fabulous as the daycare we took Rip to in Iowa and we have found it! 1st day and will be back and regular customers! Thanks so very much Freddy and Talena! Annie and Frank”

About: I just recently moved back to Florida after living in New York for 8 years. I worked for a dog walking company called Mobile Mutts for years and have taken care of dogs as small as Yorkie’s, all the way to caring for Great Dane’s. I have extensive knowledge in pet safety, health, and obedience training as I have a 6 year old Shiba Inu of my own whom I’ve raised since he was 12 weeks old. I also used to work for Wag!, but I use Rover for my own dog and enjoy working for this company very much. Right now my schedule is extremely flexible! I am available for house sits or dog boarding with reasonable notice, there are two cats and two dogs here whom are all very friendly and social so please keep note of that if you are looking to board with me! I have grown up having animals around my whole life and my family has always treated our pets as family members! In our neighborhood there are two doggie parks, or plenty of trails to get some running/walking in if you prefer them to not go to the parks.

“Tressa was amazing. Our pup had his best day ever playing with her animals and kids. Lots of pics of Levi having a blast all day long and he is going to sleep so well tonight after all of the fun.”


About: Animals have always been a big part of my life—and my heart! I currently share my home with two fun-loving pups and four quirky cats. Our fenced-in yard is perfect for safe playtime, and thanks to our handy doggie and kitty doors, the crew can come and go as they please between the house, lanai, and yard. Even my outdoor kitty joins in the fun—she loves tagging along on evening walks with the pups (yes, she’s basically one of the dogs!). She lives on the front stoop like a little porch queen, but I’ve made sure she has a cozy house to snuggle into. When storms roll in, she may not love being brought onto the lanai, but I make sure she’s safe, dry, and loved until the sun comes back out. Caring for pets is second nature to me, and I’d love to give your furry family members the same kind of love, attention, and cozy comfort while you're away! I'm retired, which means I have plenty of time, flexibility, and love to give! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life—I spend my days surrounded by my own pets, and I’m always happy to welcome more furry friends into the mix. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I’m here to provide dependable care and lots of affection whenever your pets need it most. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home. In my house, pets enjoy a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, access to the indoors and lanai through pet doors, and plenty of cozy spots to relax. I'm home throughout the day, so they get lots of attention, affection, and supervision. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely—mealtimes, walks, play, medication if needed, and of course, plenty of snuggles. I treat each pet like one of my own and make sure they feel calm, happy, and cared for while you're away.

“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Jackie was so welcoming and made the whole process easy and stress free. She was very kind and friendly with my dog, kept me updated throughout the day, and was easy to communicate with. My dog came home happy and tired from all the fun! 🥰 I’m so glad I found Jackie and will absolutely book with her again.”


“Jeffrey and Manny are amazing! He made us all feel at ease leaving Jake and Maui with them. Answered all our questions leading up to the meet up and overall had a great experience. We think our dogs had fun too! Thank you!”



“Snickers is 12 years old and suffers with anxiety whenever I am not in sight. I was so fortunate to have found Andrea to care for her. It was comforting to know that she would be taken good care of. A plus is that Andrea has 1 dog so Snickers had socialization too. Also the home is in a safe area to walk pets.”

About: I grew up with dogs (Boxer, Beagle, Golden Retriever, Min Pin, Havanese) since I was born and raised 3 of my own. I LOVE all animals as well as my family. I introduced this love to my daughter 11 years ago when she was 9 & together, we take care of numerous pets in and around our neighborhood. She's in college now, but always enjoys caring for any animal we provide pet services to when she’s at home. I appreciate you in advance for trusting me and my family to take care for your pet(s) whenever given the opportunity. I've personally never known what it's like to not take care for an animal until recently when we lost our 12 1/2 year old Havanese, Pepper, to congestive heart failure . We miss our Pepper so have a lot of love to give to any pet(s). We'll do our best to treat them just like you would. Our goal is to make them feel like at home. If that's the service you're wanting for your fur baby/babies - look no further! Book a meet and greet as well as text me any questions you have. We take care of animals for family, friends, & around our neighborhood. My schedule is flexible & I'm available most mornings, afternoons, & early evenings. Our goal is to care for them just like you do, giving you the peace of mind knowing that they or them are in kind, loving, trustworthy, reliable hands. I have a fenced in backyard and care for any animal around the clock. When housing animals, I do ask that animals do not jump up on the furniture on their own free will. We prefer that they are trained to come up when asked or picked up. We have leather couches and will provide blankets as needed to accommodate them. Our Pepper, had congestive heart failure and was on medication and a special diet, so giving medicines and whatever is required for them during their stay is doable. We usually walk dogs 3x a day, as weather permits, and for the length of time you let me know is comfortable for them. We live in a cul-de-sac, so for many it's just a nice walk around the block for 10-15 minutes. Your fur baby will get plenty of exercise and enjoy the outdoors. Thanks again and hope to see you and your fur babies real soon.

About: I am a huge animal lover. I’m the one who announces when there’s an animal nearby and always want to pet it! I have been caring for animals for over 15+ years of which I’ve had my purrfect cat, Ginger, for 13 years. I recently added to my tribe a mini poodle named Peluche. We found each other in Costa Rica and now he’s a Tico-American. I would be thrilled to care for any animals you have in your house as if they were my own. Areas Serviced: Ruskin, Apollo Beach, Sun City, Wimauma, Riverview, & Gibsonton. My schedule has recently changed due to a job change. I’m available most mornings to early afternoon and can do visits after 7pm as well. I have a home with a fenced in backyard with plenty of toys. I have a Mini Poodle and 4 cats that live with me, so any daycare dogs must be ok with cats. Inside a clients home, I ensure to leave everything the way it was found or better. I can clean up after pet accidents, ensure they are fed in a timely manner, and always triple check to ensure everything is locked up before I leave.
