Briana S. is an excellent Rover drop-in. Our 3 small dogs sat in her lap and gave her kisses. She sent photos of her visit to us and we felt assured our pups were getting the care and attention we asked for. We won't hesitate to use Rover/Briana again.

Alberto was very responsive and was able to accommodate our last minute request. He communicated well throughout our puppy’s visit. We were very grateful for the last minute drop in visit. Will definitely use him 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 :-)

April was amazing. Very professional. Took care of any changes we had immediately. Our Animal kingdom loved her, and she loved taking care of them. She was always on time for her drop-ins and she checked in and checked out perfectly. She let us know of any issues, a and took care of them immediately. Such a pleasure knowing that we could relax knowing our pets would be well cared for. We were able to concentrate on our family. We will most definitely book with her again.

About: I have helped old dogs in the water, making sure they can swim, or at least tread water, while ensuring they stay afloat. I have taken care of dogs from year-old puppies, to old ones who need a little assistance getting up and down. I am always ready to go on a nice long walk, or just stay in and relax. I am available for boarding daily, with little notice necessary. I am at home full-time, and am ready and able to take care of your open whenever needed. I have a yard with no fence, and live on a lake with a dock. I do have 2 cats, but are very used to larger animals, and friendly with dogs. They can be restricted if necessary. I can easily crate your dog, if and when it is needed. I am also very good with cats, and have no issues if they get nervous or frightened.

Tyler is an awesome pet caregiver! He has been doing drop in visits for our new puppy for the last few weeks and has been very helpful. He is trustworthy, has excellent communication, and goes above and beyond to make sure our pup is taken care of. He even gives our other dog love too while he’s there. He gives feedback after every visit and I can tell he is invested in our dogs happiness. Him and his wife, Sierra, are our first choice for a pet sitter due to each experience being great! I would highly recommend Tyler for any of your pet service needs!

About: I have always been an animal lover and I’ve had dogs and other animals almost my entire life. I’ve personally had and cared for dogs of all sizes from a tiny teacup poodle (6lbs) to a huge labradane (125lbs) as well as all ages of dogs newborn-16 yo! I’m currently a student at Florida Southern College, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am also an Army ROTC cadet at Florida Southern, so walking my dogs and yours is a great way for me to stay active! Safety is always my #1 priority, I will always lookout for the wellbeing of your dog based on their specific needs. Each dog is unique and has their own routine which is important for me to follow to the best of my ability.

Ashley was an amazing sitter for my fur baby! Always updating me on things. And sending pictures everyday! (Favorite part!) And she was able to come over before we left for vacation so she could meet me and my cat! My cat and Ashley got along very well! If we go on vacation again I will definitely be re-booking Ashley! Thank you so much!

I have a bull terrier mix and an Airedale, and corgi. They have such Distinct personalities that it’s hard to manage them all. She took care of them for a week while I had to travel for work and she absolutely was amazing. Amazing communication from Madison and my dogs were happy and vibrant through photos and when I got home. I’ve used Madison since then. I highly recommend.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I walk, feed, and love my pets everyday of the week. I have two ferrets as well as dogs. I have watched family and friends pets when they have gone on vacation and had other responsibilities. I’m very responsible and a big animal lover! I have school monday- friday but am always available after and on weekends! I can pretty much walk every 0-2 hours (unless in school) and feed when it’s necessary. I have a small piece of walking land on top of a big neighborhood that is pet friendly and safe! They provide treats and trash bags to pick up dog feces.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 11 years old, I grew up with a few dogs. As I’ve gotten older I have dog sat for multiple weeks on end for a few different families. They relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. I absolutely love dogs and will take the best care of them. I’m currently a college student so I do not have a job right now so dog sitting would fit in really well with my daily/weekly routine. I live in a gated community with a backyard and have plenty of room to walk dogs and space in my home for them to stay.
