“I was nervous about leaving my baby with someone for the first time but I can tell her had so much fun. Pictures of him smiling and he ran to her door on the second day. It's so much easier to go to work and not have to worry about if he's ok because I know he's having fun”

“Katie (and her family!) are the BESTESSESSESS!! This was the first time we left our puppy with a stranger or ever used Rover so I was a bit anxious. She did a meet n greet with us to relieve some nerves. She sent pictures every day. Each day Riley went she was pulling me out of the car tail wagging running to the front door. I'm so grateful for Katie, we were able to enjoy our vacation and know our puppy was safe and being loved on!!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Taylor, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and needs! I offer boarding, walking, and house-sitting, and specialize in everything from puppy energy to senior snuggles. I’ve worked with repeat clients over the years and am comfortable handling structured routines, medication schedules, and special dietary needs. My late senior dog Jake, who passed in July 2021, taught me just how rewarding it is to give older pets the comfort and compassion they deserve. On the flip side, I’ve also fostered plenty of puppies, and currently have a 5 month old pup of my own named Spur! I know how important it is to keep them active, consistent, and safe as they grow. Cats are a big part of my care experience too – I’ve bottle-fed kittens and cared for elderly cats needing daily medications, ear drops, special foods, and that gentle, patient touch only a true cat person can give. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a long walk, a quiet cuddle session, or just keeping things calm and consistent while you’re away, I’m here to help. I treat every pet like my own, with love, attention, and respect for their unique personality and needs. I'm working from home with pet-sitting, photography, and marketing jobs! I am very flexible in terms of travel and overall availability. Early mornings, afternoons, nights - I'm your gal! I have a big yard with many in-ground leads for the dogs to play safely without escape! My other two (very kind) fur babies will keep them company while they're away from home. While we do have cats, they are very independent creatures and usually reside in one room of our home. Easy to shut off for those who don't love felines!
“If I could give a 10 Star Review to Brenna I would! I was traveling and unexpectedly had to find a sitter for my dog Ralphie. Brenna had great Reviews, a home and fenced yard, and reasonable rates. I was thrilled with the entire experience...her beautiful, clean, welcoming home, her calm sweet demeanor, her flexibility and her excellent care of Ralphie. Even allowing him to sleep on the bed at night. Brenna is a Gem! I will plan my next trip to Inverness and bring both my dogs to Brenna. Thank you for such a positive and wonderful ( unplanned) experience Brenna!”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a little girl, and that passion has only grown stronger with time. I bring a unique mix of nurturing experience and genuine care. I’m a certified Home Health Aide with 6 years of caregiving experience, so I’m naturally patient, attentive, and very tuned in to the needs of others — including pets. I’ve worked with puppies, playful adults, and sweet adult dogs. I use positive reinforcement, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, enrichment activities, giving medication, and providing tons of cuddles, companionship, and overnight stays. I also once had a Frenchie named Pluto who taught me all about puzzle toys, energy, and keeping dogs mentally happy. I treat every fur baby like they’re family. Whether your dog wants to play, explore, or just relax, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and completely at home. 🐾🤎 I’m somewhat new to Rover and so excited to grow my little pet-sitting family here, so every booking truly means a lot to me. Even without reviews yet, I always give every pet my full attention, love, and care. Your fur baby will be treated like family and showered with all the snuggles and safety they deserve. I’m currently home full-time, so I have plenty of availability and energy to give your pets lots of love and attention. When I’m not caring for animals, you can usually find me drawing, listening to my favorite R&B, cleaning (yes, I actually love cleaning!), or cooking something good. I also care for my son when he’s home with me—he absolutely adores dogs just like his mama. Sometimes he tags along on visits, and he’s always gentle, sweet, and well-behaved around pets. Your fur babies will get double the love, attention, and good energy! I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours. In my home, I create a pet-friendly space with a comfy setup, regular feeding and potty schedules, fun playtime, walks, music, and plenty of enrichment. I supervise closely, keep things clean, and follow every owner’s routine so your pet feels at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful, responsible, and detail-oriented. I follow all instructions exactly—feeding, meds, walks, rules—and make sure the home stays clean and secure. I give pets quality time, attention, and comfort, and I always provide updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away. Your fur baby will be safe, loved, entertained, and well-cared for—no matter where I’m watching them.
About: I have been watching dogs since I was 8 years old. I have bred German Shepherd puppies most of my life with my family. Dogs are my passion and I love them lots! Would love to watch yours! Love working in The Villages as well! I work remote so I have the ability to watch dogs and even sit with them for a while and let them roam around while I work. I can stay at your house or just do drop ins if you’re more comfortable with that! Would love to talk on the phone prior and introduce myself! Thanks I would rather go to the owners house as I rent and my landlord does not allow pets right now. I do watch animals at my parents house!
About: I have a love for all animals and will take care of your furry friend like they are my own. They will have outside time whenever they want it and can take a nap on my furniture if they are so inclined. I have taken care of many pets for the last 40 years and you can guarantee that your pets will be in good hands with me. They will look forward to going to doggie daycare and you will feel at ease knowing how happy they are to be in my home. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have as I am open and honest about my level of care for your pets. Thank you for your time in reading this and I hope to take care of your pets soon!
About: hello, my name is Corey. I'm retired Air Force. I was a dog handler in the Air Force. We currently have babies of our own and know how difficult it is to find a sitter and would be more than happy to meet you and your babies to see if it would be a good fit to give you peace of mind so you too can find time to get away. Very happy to sit all types of dogs. Am used to special diets and administering medications. I am a retired air force dog handler and have raised and trained and taken care of animals my entire life. I am used to taking care of animals with special needs and requiring medications at feeding times. Depending on what the customer is requesting, I can take care of the pets in their home. As a retired air force police officer, you can rely on safety and security and feel comfortable, allowing me into your home
“Bama had a playmate during her daycare stay. She is super social and did well with another buddy to play with. We are very satisfied with the care and attention Bama received while staying with Kay. We will definitely use her services again should we need a sitter for Bama.”

About: I've taken care of animals my entire life. Cats, dogs, birds, iguanas, ferrets and a few farm animals too. I was involved in an animal rescue group for several years, fostering many animals who had health issues. I firmly believe that all animals deserve love, shelter, safety, and food. I fall in love with almost every animal I meet! Even chickens! When I'm taking care of an animal, they get a majority of my attention and affection. I do some work from home so it should blend well. I like to meet with the owners and pets a couple of times before to be sure the animals are familiar with me and learn any important information for each pet. I try to follow the owners routine so that the pets are not confused.
“Sarah was awesome. We did a meet and greet before to make sure our dogs got along well. Her poodles are adorable and super well behaved, and they were the perfect fit for Koya! She provided excellent communication and photos to keep us updated throughout the day. Also appreciated her accommodating our early drop off time. Would definitely book again!”

“Annette was very attentive to Toby’s needs today! I appreciate her professionalism and caring watch of him. She is super trustworthy and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services! Thank you for today!”

“I interviewed a few before choosing Heidi to care for my dog. Did daycare today before her longer stay next week. When I dropped Dixie off she went happily to Heidi and didn’t look back at me which made me happy. Heidi’s communication with me before and during her stay was top knotch and she sent pictures. I’m now so much more excited to go on my trip knowing that my girl will be in good hands. Highly recommend!!”
