“Laura was amazing with Riley! We had another sitter cancel on us last minute, but Laura stepped up and saved the day. She is very responsive, attentive, and gave us updates multiple times per day on how our girl was doing while we were away. We will definitely be using her for future vacations/trips…we know our pup will be in great hands! Thank you Laura 😌”

“Sarah was great with our pups!!! One of them had to have a cone for a few days and she handled him with care. She stayed the night at our house and lived on our 2 dogs just like we would. I highly recommend Sarah for watching our dogs again!”


About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I have experience with cats, dogs, and senior pets, and I know every animal has their own personality and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medications if needed, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and happy to send updates and photos so you know your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight care with advance notice. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I always follow the care instructions you provide. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll treat your home with the same respect I’d want for my own. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, exercise, companionship, and plenty of love. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and well cared for. I also have experience with oral and dental care for dogs, as well as administering medications if your furry friend is prescribed!

“Jules was great! We used her for day sitting our dog since we were going to be gone most of the day. She gave me updates, took a picture and provided feedback on how/what he was doing.”

“Kelly is absolutely amazing! She arrived on time and kept in contact with me through out her stay. My dog loved her as well! I definitely recommend her to anyone who needs pet sitting.”

About: I am currently on a pre veterinarian track at Jacksonville University. I have always loved working with animals from the zoo to vet clinics to my own animals. I have always loved to spend time with animals which is why I have decided to sign up for rover. I would love to express my passion and help others have complete comfort when leaving their furry friend. I want my clients to know they’re with someone who is passionate & experienced with all that is needed for their pets care. At home I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 bunnies, and 2 guinea pigs! Everyday I experience hands on experience with pets feeding, cleaning, walking, and best of all giving them lots of love! At my clients home I make sure I go above and beyond to care for your pets! I will always be sure to make sure I clean up any mess, give your animal lots of love and comfort, and make sure all their energy is out whether that is throwing the ball outside, walks, or runs!

“Kaitlyn stayed at our home with our two dogs for a long weekend and we were very pleased. At the meet and greet she asked good questions and sent messages while we were away. We returned home to a clean place and happy dogs. Will use her again.”

“Sidnee was more than a dog sitter for us! We had a few house issues arise while we were away and Sidnee helped us take care of the issues while we were out of town. She stayed at our house for 4 nights watching our two active dogs! She took great care of them and left the house just as clean. We appreciate Sidnee so much!”

“My two Boston Terriers were well taken care of by Scott while I was on vacation. I received daily photos and updates on their dog walks and I could tell they were very comfy with Scott as their sitter. He played with them, gave them their fav treats and followed care guide great. My very cautious cat even made an appearance or two. Will definitely rebook next time I travel!”

“Lynn was great and we’d ask her back in a heartbeat! Our two dogs had a great weekend with Lynn — they clearly had gotten lots of pets and attention while we were out. Thanks again!”

“So grateful to have found Jessica. She was able to fit us in with little notice, arrived on time, and dove right in to get to know our two dogs—one a very energetic puppy. They loved her (I can just tell) and we loved how she sent pics and was so personable and professional. I look forward to having her sit for us again soon.”


“Amy is the best! My house is always just how i left it and my animals always look so happy in the pics she sends :) Highly recommend Amy and looking forward to having her stay at our home with our animals again :)”

“Alison is very prompt and reliable. She updated us with pictures of our pet. She does a remarkable job! Will definitely use her many times more. Give her a shot. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Sam is awesome! An actual professional at this! On time, very good communication, etc. Our pups loved Sam and he left our house just as it was. Thank you Sam! We will definitely be reaching out again soon!”

“Heidi was a wonderful sitter for our sweet pup. She communicated well and gave us all the updates. She took care of our home and was so patient as we worked through some issues with our air conditioner as well. We would let her puppy sit again and again(:”

“Milinda provided updates every day and photos of our 2 dogs and 2 cats! She left the house super clean when we came home and took great care of our babies during our 12-day long trip”

“Cathryn was wonderful to work with! She was able to watch my babies for me on short notice when another sitter had to cancel. She took amazing care of my two large dogs and updated me often on how they were doing throughout the weekend. I will definitely hire her again for future trips!”

Kaitlyn was a blessing in disguise! Our fur babies were spoiled while we were gone! Everything went well and she shared daily pics of the fur babies smiling ear to ear. Very satisfied with her services and would recommend her to care for your babies while you’re gone.

Caroline is amazing!! Our dog immediately loved her and wanted to be around her when we did the meet & greet. And Caroline took such good care of her while we were gone. She kept on her on her routine and gave her lots of play time & cuddles. She also took such great care of our house. We will 100% be booking Caroline again!

Carissa was a very knowledgeable professional sitter. She shared pics and information about the dogs on a regular basis. She kept us informed about how they were doing and they seemed very happy. We appreciate everything she did. We will be calling her everything we need a sitter. The dogs also seemed to love her and we're happy with her services.

Lauren took such great care of our crew! We were a little anxious leaving our cats and dogs overnight for the first time and Lauren made us feel at ease. When we returned home our house was left exactly as we left it. Additionally, some of our most shy cats came out to see her which is so rare for them! We are so happy to have found Lauren and look forward to having her take care of our pets in the future

If I could leave more than 5 stars I would!!! ✨ Brioni went over and above for us and Milly. She sent updates the entire time we were gone. Played and loved on her a lot. She even gave her a bath without us asking because Milly got a little dirty. To top it all she left us the sweetest note and picture of Milly in a frame!! Can't recommend Brioni enough! We will be using her again for sure!! ❤️

Casey is amazing! We needed a sitter for our new puppy and our senior dog last minute and she provided nothing but the best care. Our routine was followed to the tee and we came home to happy doggos. She sent pictures and kept us updated - such a win since this our first time using rover and leaving our fur babies with someone else. She is a top notch sitter!

Ana was absolutely wonderful with my dog. She was incredibly diligent, kind, and attentive, and it was clear she truly cared about my dog’s comfort and well being. She stayed at my home, kept everything tidy. Knowing my dog was in such loving and responsible hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ana to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and caring sitter. I would happily book her again!
This is the third time we have hired Lexi in the last six weeks.... and there is a reason she has become our "go-to" sitter -- our kitties love her, and she does a great job. There is not much we can say that has not already been written in prior reviews -- we are very happy having Lexi take care of our home and our cats while we are out of town. :-)
Milinda, your professionalism & love for animals shine brightly! Thank you for caring for our dogs and cat as if they were your own! The fact that you put extra TLC into our Pug’s eye situation shows what an exemplary human you are! The house was left exactly as you found, & that is much appreciated! You’re responsible, trustworthy, communicative, & very caring! We can’t wait to utilize your services again! THANK YOU GENUINELY!

Andrea was great!!! She kept in contact with us frequently while we were gone with pics and videos. One of my dogs is extremely she and she took to Andrea quickly. She has such a good energy that she won her heart right away. I felt so comfortable knowing that my Charlotte liked her. We plan on a week long trip next year and will definitely book Andrea again!!
