About: Hi, I’m Valerie! Born and raised in New York, I’m almost 30 (not the podcast 😉) and currently living between Florida and the Northeast. I work remotely in design and marketing, which gives me the flexibility to pet sit between work, cafés, and yoga. I’ve cared for pets in both Williamsburg and Sarasota — from plant sitting to dog sitting. Most recently, I looked after two amazing pups, a Rottweiler named Jono and a Scottish Terrier named Murphy. I completely fell in love with them! That experience opened my eyes to how much joy (and care) goes into looking after dogs, and it made me want to continue doing this whenever I’m visiting friends and family in the Northeast this fall (a perfect escape from hurricane season). I’m attentive, active, and love spending time outdoors — so your pup will always get plenty of walks, play, and love. I’m comfortable with medium-to-large dogs, but I do have a cat allergy, so I focus solely on dog sitting. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and flexible with scheduling — I’d be happy to help care for your furry family member! I work full-time remotely Monday–Friday as a Social Media Manager, which gives me plenty of flexibility to be with your pets throughout the day. I can step away from my desk for walks, playtime, and snuggles in between meetings, lunch breaks, and coffee runs — so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches. I can walk them, say hello, feed them or have a pup sleepover for a short-term and/ or long-term stay to keep them safe at home.
About: Although I am new to professional sitting, I grew up caring for my own dog and have a lifelong connection with animals. I am naturally patient, detail-oriented, and fully committed to treating your dog with the care and affection they deserve. Whether it is keeping them active on walks or giving them a safe, calm environment, your pet's happiness is my top priority. Let's schedule a meet and greet! I work a standard 9-to-5 schedule as an IT professional, which means I am fully available during weekday evenings after 5:00 PM and have wide-open availability on weekends for walks, and sitting. Safety and reliability are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, secure, and hazard-free environment for any pet in my care. I am extremely detail-oriented, follow instructions precisely regarding feeding or medication, and will always keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit.
About: I am very attentive in my care giving. There is nothing more important than a safe, loving, and fun environment for your fur baby! I will be your dogs new best friend! My love for animals began when I was small child. Animals are amazing and bring so much joy to our lives... I want to give some of that joy back! I am looking for a fulfilling career doing what I love most, caring for animals and helping those in need. I am very active and believe in daily regular exercise for myself... so walking your dog will be a breeze - (and an additional calorie burning workout for me as well!!) You and your dog will love the attention and care I have to offer!! I work full time and live close by to my home, so potty breaks won’t be missed. I am available most weekends and holidays. I am open to special requests, should you need an extra day or two. I will ensure a safe place for your fur baby while staying at my home by providing a neat, clean space and lots of attention and love!
About: I have experience caring for pets and understand the importance of providing them with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I am comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning up after pets, administering basic care as instructed, and giving them attention and companionship. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet's individual needs and routine. I treat every pet with kindness and care, as if they were my own, and I am committed to ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work full-time, but I have availability after work on weekdays and plenty of time on weekends to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy time outdoors. My son and I love visiting local parks and walking the trails several times a week, giving active dogs plenty of exercise and fresh air. I also provide attentive care for other pets, making sure they have fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention while respecting their individual routines and needs. I care for every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I am a lover of all animals, furry, feathered & scaly. Seriously, ALL animals! I’m that lady that will stop to assist a turtle crossing the road. I’ve volunteered to rescue injured birds while at the beach, saved a green anole lizard from a hard freeze, fostered close to a dozen cats til they found their fur-ever homes, rescued a baby red-eared slider turtle the size of a quarter from the middle of the road and raised him to be happy and healthy until he was big and strong enough to be safely returned to the pond. I have no fear of animals. I truly understand and listen to them and know how to read their body language. I often understand animals better than people ☺️ I will always go out of my way for animals. I’m not talking about just wanting to stop and pet every dog or cat I see and give it hugs and kisses…I definitely do! ….but truly doing whatever I can to better their lives. I got my first cat when I was 7 years old, and since then have personally rescued and loved more than 20 kitties, and 2 dogs. I’ve owned and maintained multiple freshwater aquariums. Cared for birds, lizards and snakes. I have experience with dog and cat training, solving behavioral issues, and administering medicine whether it be a pill or injections. I have a very flexible schedule. I host music, bingo, and trivia nights a couple days a week around town. I also work as a stage hand, setting up lighting sound, and sets for concerts and events. Several times a year I work at our local Renaissance festivals. In between all of that and caring for your fur babies, I’m also an artist. I’m not able to board animals in my home unless in very specific circumstances due to the size of my space and the other animals in my home. I have four cats of my own and they’re my life and my whole world, but I will give your fur babies, the same love and attention that I give to my own.
About: I am a big dog fan I have owned one my whole life couldn’t live without them, they bring a happiness to the home and always happy to see you and I would take care of yours as if there my own and make sure they had plenty of play time outside since I work from home and I would also take them on walks around my neighborhood.

“Kaci helped me out with last minute dog & cat sitting when my friend unexpectedly cancelled the day before I left for a camping trip ? She kept me up to date with pictures from each drop in visit, and was always quick to respond to my messages. When I got home, I could tell my pets had been loved and well cared for while I was gone. I’ll definitely reach out to her again if I need pet sitting help in the future. Thanks Kaci!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and pet sit for friends all the time! I love animals and love to hang out with them and keep them company! I’m currently working full-time at a coffee shop, but my hours are 6 AM–2 PM! This gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. After work, I’m available to stop by, take them for walks, feed them, and spend quality time playing and keeping them company. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my biggest priorities are their safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on your pets while I’m there. I’ll also give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, food, and fresh water as needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets and home are being cared for responsibly while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of animals for the last 40+ years. I have experience with various different types and sizes of dogs, cats, horses, and goats from large to small, from shy to over exuberant. I currently own my own farm and have 12 animals on property. I am incredibly responsible, timely, caring, and empathetic to your animals particular needs and situation. I am currently working part-time, but have a relatively flexible schedule. There will be some days where I’m not working at all so I will have a full eight hours on those days and then there will be some afternoons that I will have availability after 2 o’clock. I would love the opportunity to come play with your dogs and take them for a walk and just let them enjoy life when you can’t be the one to do it for them

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Siesta Key
Kim is absolutely wonderful and we can’t recommend her highly enough! She watched our two dogs, Rosie and Tigger, and treated them like her own. From the start, it was clear how much she genuinely loves animals. She kept us updated with photos and messages, followed all their routines perfectly, and gave them tons of attention and affection. Rosie and Tigger were relaxed, happy, and well cared for the entire time—no small feat with two dogs! It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring, capable hands. Kim is reliable, communicative, and clearly a natural with dogs. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy to watch your pups, Kim is the one. We’ll definitely be booking her again!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Siesta Key choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
