“Toni is amazing! Excellent with communication and you can tell she’s an animal person right away! Kala warmed up to her very quickly and she sent us pictures and updates from the time she got to our home to when she left. Our home was left in excellent condition and every instruction followed perfectly. We will definitely use her in the future and Kala has a new best friend ☺️”

About: I grew up with large dogs, my yellow Labrador, Leo, and Bull Mastiff, Dexter, as well as fish, hermit crabs and leopard geckos. I also watch my brother’s boxer/pit mix, Roxy from time to time. The last few years I have been cat and bunny sitting for several friends when they travel and in the last year or so adopted an orange cat of my own. His name is Honey Nut and he followed me home from the bus stop. I love animals and am a licensed massage therapist who can give your beloved fur babies the best pets! My schedule is pretty open currently. No formal employers at the moment, only other obligations are private massage clients when booked, and my yoga practice. I can be available to visit and care for your fur baby as attentively as they are used to. I love a list and getting familiar with each animal’s personality!
“Allie made us feel at ease while we were away, which allowed us to really enjoy our vacation. Tuna and Mav had a great time and enjoyed hanging out and learning with Allie.”
“Izzy was very attentive and communicative. She was easy to get a hold of, sent pictures daily and was great with the kitties. We will book again with her and highly recommend!!!”
About: What sets me apart is my personalized, positive approach to pet care—every dog is treated as an individual! I focus on building trust, clear communication, and real-life skills that work at home and on walks. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I’m available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, making those days ideal for longer walks, play sessions, or pet sitting. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I’m available in the afternoons, which works well for check-ins, walks, and evening care. Safety, trust, and a positive environment are my top priorities. I provide attentive, reliable care and closely follow each pet’s routine to ensure they feel secure and comfortable. I use gentle, positive methods and maintain a calm, clean environment so every pet feels safe, respected, and at ease while in my care.
About: Hi! My name is Elisabeth and I am a NICU nurse living in West Palm who absolutely loves dogs & cats 🐱 🐶! Though I don’t have time to fully dedicate myself to a furry friend of my own right now, I’d love to help with yours! I have had huskies & cats my entire life and have been dog walking & house sitting consistently for families for over 10 years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from frenchies to double doodles and cats of all ages. I love to spend time walking dogs thoroughly to make sure they enjoy their time and get all of their energy out 🌿🍂🌞. When it comes to house sitting, I am an extremely organized individual who values cleanliness and respect. I would love to meet you and your family best friend 💛 I work 2-3 days a week and am available the remainder of the week! On my days off, I love to squeeze in a long walk or two! I am a responsible caregiver who values cleanliness and respect for each families space. I am self sufficient and comfortable taking care of puppies or elderly dogs who may need more attention throughout the night.

Andres did an awesome job taking care of Stewie and my senior dog PJ who needs extra care. He played with Stewie and gave PJ all his medications as directed. He sent me regular pictures and updates while I was away which I appreciated so much. When I returned home, everything was clean and orderly. I will definitely be using him again. Thank you Andres!
Camila was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Star. From the moment we connected, she was kind, communicative, and clearly a true animal lover. She took such great care of Star for the day and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camila kept us updated, was attentive to Star’s needs, and treated her like her own. It means so much to know your pet is in good hands, and Camila exceeded our expectations. We’re so grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend! 🐾✨
Toni is one of a kind! Luckily she was available to watch my cat Maggie on a quick out of town overnight stay. She‘s my cat sitter to go! Have used her services before and was so happy to see she was available. As always, the house was impeccable, and all instructions followed..most importantly though my Maggie really likes her. Thanks Toni for being you, I am so glad I found you!
Somyr was absolutely wonderful with Kingston. From the very beginning, she kept us informed and at ease, sending sweet updates and pictures that truly meant a lot to us. It was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with our love bug and treated him with so much care and attention. Knowing he was happy, comfortable, and loved made all the difference. If you're looking for a loving pet sitter. I highly recommend Somyr to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate. When she left, Kingston was looking for her. My husband had to take him out front to show him that she was gone.
Jordan and Molly were great with Kylo and Beni. Kylo is a high energy mini Aussie and they were able to maintain his energy levels the whole time with many walks and dog park trips. They stayed in my home and left it exactly how they found it which is always nice. They were very communicative and professional.
Caleigh is the absolute best when it comes to looking after our two cats any time we are away. Truly could not ask for someone better, as she gives daily updates and spends plenty of time with the boys throughout her stay. They’re both a handful, but she handles their shenanigans with love and care. Thank you, as always!
Trisha stayed at our house and took great care of our dog and cat while we were away. She was responsible, friendly, communicative...everything you'd want from a pet sitter! Our pets do not eat kibble and she had no issues feeding them fresh food. No issues with anything else pet care related either. She was respectful of our home. She also was super kind and generous in extending our house sitting agreement when we realized our Rover booking was only until the day before we were returning. Thank you for being so easygoing and responsible, Trisha! Our animals hope to see you again.
Hannah went above and beyond for us as a sitter taking care of our dog Bella. We had travel disruptions and she went out of her way to help let her out additional times and to make sure she was okay. She is kind, dependable, and honest. We could have not asked for anything more!
Libia was an amazing pet sitter for our 3 Golden Retrievers. She was on time, very reliable, professional and very kind with the dogs. She sent us updates and kept us informed the whole time. Our furry babies loved her and we will absolutely use her again in the future!
