I’ve had him since he was about a year old and we’ve been able to make lots of great memories together. I’ve worked at multiple grooming salons and have had limited veterinary experience. The vet experience has taught me to provide pets with liquid medication as well as pill medication. I have also raised kittens, not only when I was in school, but I now have my own kitten named Oakey, and she’s a fast growing girl! My own dog has problems with arthritis, so I know how important it is to take care when tending to your pets specific needs.

I work full time in a remote setting which allows lot of flexibility location wise.

About: I have cared for animals since a very young age as I have always had pets. At this time, I only have a young cat but I have taken care of animals as small as a chihuahua and as big as an American Bulldog. I am very high energy and I love to play but I also like to take the time to teach dogs new tricks. As for cats, I can totally match their vibe and play with them or just lounge with them. I’m a full-time legal assistant at a law firm so I work 9am-5pm from Monday to Friday but I am very high energy and can walk or feed or care for your cuddly critters after work or on weekends! I can crate your furry friend if needed or follow any specific routines you may have. We all have that one silly thing we do at home for our pets and I don’t mind the odd requests if it means ensuring the safety and care of your pet.”

About: When I lived in Thailand, I helped take care of my friend’s Siberian Huskies and Alaskan Malamutes regularly. Sometimes, I stayed overnight to care for them, especially when the dogs were giving birth to puppies. In my free time, I often took them on walks because spending time with dogs has always brought me joy. I also attended grooming school with 600+ hours of training and have experience helping rescue animals. I truly enjoy caring for dogs because they are family to me. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care that I would give my own. I’m self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout my day. I have two beloved fur babies of my own, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily routine. I spend a lot of my free time helping injured, stray, or lost animals because I truly love making a difference in their lives. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or making sure pets feel safe and comfortable, I treat every pet like family and give them the same love and attention I give my own. I always prioritize safety, trust, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment.

I make sure they have fresh water, meals on time, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I pay close attention to behavior changes, stress signals, and any special instructions from pet parents. Since I have experience caring for large breeds, rescue animals, and dogs of different personalities, I understand that every pet has different needs. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, pet-friendly environment with close supervision, regular walks, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and treated like family.
About: I've helped and trained animals for years for the Humane Society, Broward County Animal Care, and other rescue groups. I live on a farm with a lot space. I have experience working with large breeds like mastiffs, great danes, and rottweilers, and small breeds too. I also administer medical treatment - shots, bandaging, pills, insulin, temperature checks and respond to emergencies like bloat. I work full time at home on my computer and I pay attention and exercise the dogs throughout the day. I will play their favorite games and try to get their energy out. I remain open to communication and pet intakes all day even when working. I can respond to text based communication mostly immediately. I do have occasional meetings and in that case I would respond to a call with a text message or email instead. I live on a farm with lots of fenced in space for dogs to run around and explore. If you look at the first picture, the property extends well past the first fence. There is a long trail back there. Dogs will be walked the number of times you ask for but no less than three times a day, fed twice a day, given continuous water unless they're on a water schedule. For boarding in my home: your dogs will get their own room with their beds, toys, bowls, and everything that makes them comfortable. They will get attention throughout the day and go out to exercise. I watch from one Rover family at a time. I keep your dogs completely separated from my own dogs. The horses stay across the fence and the dogs enjoy meeting them. Keeping your dogs separate is the safest approach to dog boarding and works well for almost every dog. For dogs with severe separation anxiety, please ask about my in-home dog sitting service. If your dog is well socialized you might consider other dog sitters who put unknown dogs together. It's risky but it can help with separation anxiety. For services in your home: I will look after your pets and your home. I can bring in mail, water plants, adjust the thermostat, etc.
“Mariana is a great sitter. This is our first time using her and our dog warmed up to her by giving her Minnie 🤗 hugs. She was punctual and her communication with us was on point. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve individually taken care of multiple different pets since I was in 4th grade. From hamsters to birds to dogs, I’ve cared for all of them throughout my life. All of my pets were active and made sure to receive 24/7 love from my family, friends, and I. I love being active throughout my day, like running and walking, so I would be happy to get your dog physically active as well! If not, I also love sleeping and cuddling! I am currently in college playing soccer. As an athlete, my schedule changes every week. Therefore, I am very busy with soccer and school, so I can only work certain hours of the day. I make the pet feel safe at all times. I will check up on the pets’ food and water. I will make sure the pet has gone outside multiple times to get exercise and to use the bathroom.
“John did an amazing job with our pups. The cute updates were highly appreciated! It was much easier to enjoy our vacation knowing everyone was well taken care of. We can’t wait for next time!”

“Wonderful meet and greet. Michelle was punctual, lovely, and hit it off with my fur baby. He's an old man so he can be a little feisty, but he took a liking to her. Thank you so much!”

I can’t say enough about Mariana. The peace of mind knowing that my Minnie is taken care of and plants were watered was priceless. I love her check-ins. The family loved seeing pics of the activities, walks and peanut butter bone. I would definitely rebook without a second thought.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
