“Wow! Patty is more than 5 stars! It’s hard for me to leave this review because I don’t want her to get too busy and lose her! First, she is just lovely and kind. We have a 4 month old Cavapoo, Coco, and we were nervous about leaving her. Second, we did our “meet and greet” we were no longer on edge. Coco had a blast! I know this because she regularly updated me with pictures and texts. She treated our little pup as if she was her own! Lastly, she introduced Coco to her grand-puppy and they had a great time playing! Coco had tons of exercise and great care and I cannot wait to use Patty again!”
“Bianca is a true gem! We all love her, ( my 3 dachshunds )especially Guinness who wanted all her attention. Bianca is the most compassionate level headed dog sitter. She was outstanding with my 16 year old Marjie. And handled baby Bella who needs time to warm up. She’s A natural pro. No worries with Bianca taking care of your babies.”
“Michelle is a caring and loving pet sitter. My pugs love her and even though they are elderly, she took lovely care of them. They have a very strict complex diet and Michelle took care of them so well and followed the diet to a T. I was so grateful to be able to take my attention off my precious pugs while I was away.”
About: I have worked with animals professionally for 5 years, but also have 20 years of experience with my own pets. I have a deep love and respect for animals. I work a full time job as a dolphin trainer with inconsistent hours depending on time of year, but my days off are Thursdays and Fridays. Most other days I am available before 7am and after 4pm unless during the summer. My current living situation does not allow for me to care for animals in my own home, however I am open to caring to animals in the client’s home. I understand the importance of maintaining a clean space and respecting the boundaries set forth by the client. Please note for house sitting jobs that I do work a full time job Saturday through Wednesday so on those days potty breaks would be before work (around 7am) and after work (around 4:30pm). Thursdays and Fridays are my off days so I am available for more frequent potty breaks/play sessions.
“Adrienne was awesome! She went above and beyond to hang out with my pups and keep me constantly updated with pictures and videos so I could enjoy my vacation instead of worrying about my pups. Will definitely contact her again when I head out of town. Thanks for everything ?”
“Adison always does a wonderful job taking care of our crew of four and our home. We always come home to happy pets and never worry about anything while we are away. Communication is great and we highly recommend her!”
“So happy to have found Rhiannon. She is so good with our dogs and would not hesitate to recommend her HIGHLY!! They love her to pieces and so do we. Communication flawless and attentive to every detail of our instructions. Our dog Frani is a special needs girl who needs meds and more frequent meals. She took such great care of her. She is a jewel!!”
“We were delighted to have Savannah as our new cat sitter for Black Fury during a short two-night trip, and she truly exceeded our expectations! Despite Black Fury’s extremely shy and anxious nature as a former stray, Savannah’s kind and caring approach helped him start to come out of his shell by the end of her stay, which is no small feat for our timid boy who spent most of the time hiding under the bed. Her communication was fantastic—she kept us in the loop with regular updates and photos, giving us such peace of mind. Savannah was conscientious, keeping everything tidy and tending to Black Fury’s needs with utmost care. We’re so grateful for her warmth and professionalism and sincerely hope she’ll be our go-to sitter in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate and reliable pet sitter!”
“Traci was amazing! We had a last minute cancellation for a two week house/pet sitting and she stepped in a day before we were scheduled to leave. Was fantastic with our stranger-apprehensive dog and was super flexible, kind, considerate and responsive. Our house is currently listed for sale and she was so helpful and flexible working with our realtor while we were away to help manage the showings and open houses by making sure Indy was safely tucked away in his pen while people were touring the house. We will absolutely be using Traci again and highly recommend her. She took amazing care of both our home and our boy Indy ❤️”
“We felt so comfortable with Diane and her husband. Clearly a very dog friendly house and couple. She sent us videos and pictures constantly to let us know our pup was doing well! 10 stars in my book!”
“Megan took great care of my fur babies and my home during my vacation. She answered my texts promptly and she even sent me cute pictures of my pets. I felt comfortable leaving my pets and my home in her care after meeting with her. It was my first time using Rover and she was beyond helpful. I would recommend Megan and I will be using her services again in the near future. It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation knowing someone trustworthy was taking good care of my pets.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my family my whole life and have volunteered at an animal shelter for many years! I absolutely love caring for dogs! I am currently a college student doing research on my own time so my schedule is incredibly flexible! I can adapt to your schedule and whenever you need your dogs walked!! I most likely will not care for dogs in my own home however I am willing to travel to yours and walks dogs in a neighborhood!
“I cannot recommend Katie enough!! She was unbelievable with our animals and took care of them like they were her own. I was extremely nervous about leaving our new rescue dog, senior cat, and two young cats (one is an escape artist) it for two weeks, but Katie made the whole experience so much easier. She came over to our house twice before we left to make sure she was informed on each of the animals and knew their routines. She sent us regular updates and filled us in on anything important going on while we were away. We came home to a clean house as well as calm and peaceful animals that were happy and well taken care of. We would use Katie again in the future, and I know our pets will be so happy to see her.”
About: Hi! I’m Sam and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a passion for caring for pets like they’re my own. I take the time to understand each pets personality and needs. I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your baby, and I’m here to give you that peace of mind. I work from home so I’ll be with your pet the entire time and can take them out as often as needed. I’ll treat your pet with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own 5 year old German Shorthair. I am also happy to provide updates, pictures and videos throughout their stay! I’m committed to keeping your pet happy, healthy and loved while you’re away! I can’t wait to meet them! I work from home so I am around all day! I can take them out as often as needed and can provide cuddles and love throughout the day. I live in a one bedroom apartment but I have a dog of my own so we go on frequent walks! Pets are allowed on furniture and can make themselves at home.
About: I’m from a really small town in PA and am a HUGE animal lover. I grew up with pets (of all kinds) my whole life! I would love to watch after your babies! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your dogs or cats. My schedule changes weekly, but the latest I would ever work is 9pm and it’s usually 9hr shift. I also have an hour lunch in the middle of my shift that I can use for potty breaks if needed. I’m willing to stay overnight and housesit if needed as well! I do well with sticking to a schedule and I love going on walks and being outside in the sunshine. I’ll make sure your furbaby gets all the attention it deserves :) I also don’t mind small housekeeping tasks.
“Rustin was terrific with our 2 dogs. We booked on a last minute weekend trip. Rustin walked our dogs a couple of times a day. She sent pictures of the dogs who really liked Rustin and her boyfriend! Rustin is a wonderful pet sitter.”

Olivia M.
“Olivia not only is a total animal and dog lover, but she works with animals for a living! She’s a dolphin trainer and has extensive experience working with all types of animals both land and water. She loves her Yorkie, Chanel, back home and even trained her to do tricks. She trained her former dog as well at a young age. So safe to say, she’d be a wonderful dog walker! Her work ethic is unmatched, and I think the doggos will be lucky to hang with her for a bit!”

Samantha D.
“Samantha took care of my baby Bailey! We call him a baby but he’s a 75 pound Weimaraner. Bailey loved Sam! She sent us photos and texts updating us on how he was doing while we were on our trips and always takes the best care of him. Bailey gets so excited when he sees Sam’s car pull in, it makes leaving him a bit easier knowing he is in such good hands. She is incredibly professional and super approachable regarding any special needs that Bailey may need such as when he needed ear drops. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with Bailey and we are so lucky to have found such an amazing pet caretaker. I would recommend Sam to everyone!”

Saint Augustine South pet parents share their Rover experiences
All I can say is…..BEN IS GREAT!! Poncho is a picky fellow all around and he got along great with Ben. We did a meet and greet the evening before, Poncho always barks at strangers and doesn’t like just anyone but he never barked once at Ben. He seemed to feel comfortable with him as soon as we met. On the day of the sitting, Poncho let Ben inside again no barking accepting and welcoming him into our Airbnb without us here. This made me feel so comfortable knowing Poncho wasn’t stressed while we were away because he a senior dog and has some anxiety issues. Ben sent me several updates and pictures as well throughout the day. Poncho didn’t eat while I was away and Ben was worried, he let me know …I had forgot to tell Ben poncho sometimes does this if I’m away because I think he gets a little sad maybe some seperation anxiety, this also is a plus for Ben showing he truly cares about your pet and what his responsibilities are. If I ever have to use a dog sitter again while I’m on vacation here in St. Augustine I’ll most definitely be using Ben if he is still available. Apparently for my Poncho he was the dog whisperer because again Poncho is a very picky little guy on the ppl he likes and he apparently loved Ben from The first sniff lol Thank you so much Ben for taking care of my baby, we appreciate you for today more than you will ever know!
We did a meet and greet with Gillian first to make sure our anxious dogs would be ok with someone staying with them while we had a weekend away. She was amazing and the dogs loved her (one guy took a little longer, but he came around and loved having her there)! She gave us updates and photos and provided us with comfort knowing that they were being treated like Kings at home! Definitely will be using Gillian in the future.
Adrienne was fabulous with our 2 dogs. We have an English Bulldog and a Frenchie. 2 breeds that are not the easiest for daily care! She excelled at it. Kept our dogs healthy, happy, and cool for the entire week we were gone while giving them ample outdoor time when the weather was cool enough for them. Left our house spotless as well. We are so thankful to have found Adrienne 🐾
Sadie had a fabulous stay with Diane and Dave. She was well taken care of and we received photos and videos daily of our baby girl. I would highly recommend Diane for your pet sitting needs. I know we will be contacting her again should we need to go out of town. Thank you again Diane and Dave!
Kelly was phenomenal. We felt at ease on our vacation with daily updates and pictures of our two dogs. Upon our return home we were greeted with a clean tidy home and happy dogs. She went above and beyond & washed the sheets she slept in & folded the laundry in our dryer. We will definitely use her in the future!
Traci was amazing! We had a last minute cancellation for a two week house/pet sitting and she stepped in a day before we were scheduled to leave. Was fantastic with our stranger-apprehensive dog and was super flexible, kind, considerate and responsive. Our house is currently listed for sale and she was so helpful and flexible working with our realtor while we were away to help manage the showings and open houses by making sure Indy was safely tucked away in his pen while people were touring the house. We will absolutely be using Traci again and highly recommend her. She took amazing care of both our home and our boy Indy ❤️
Madison was absolutely amazing. I was so nervous to have someone that was not family watching our two pugs, but her communication and care totally put my mind at ease. She kept me updated throughout the day, sent tons of pictures, and my house felt as clean as it was the day we left. Absolutely book with Madison!
We were very nervous about leaving our girl with someone she didn't know. Amanda came to our house and we brought Cynder to hers to try to make it easier and to see if both parties thought it would work. We were going to be gone for 3 1/2 weeks. She was well taken care of and Amanda periodically sent pictures so we would know that she was doing okay. Made leaving her easier. I would definitely recommend Amanda.
