About: I’ve spent the past couple of years assisting my girlfriend with her Rover clients and helping care for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Through that experience, I’ve become comfortable with daily routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently have some additional free time and decided to begin taking on dog watching myself because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and providing dependable care owners can feel confident about. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I currently have flexible availability for walks, drop-ins, and dog sitting. I work in mobile chiropractic services, so I already understand the importance of professionalism, reliability, communication, and being trusted in someone’s home. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure pets feel comfortable, active, and well cared for while their owners are away. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe and relaxed in their familiar environment while also treating the home respectfully and professionally. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and overall comfort to help ensure each pet receives attentive and reliable care.

Angela is a wonderful pet sitter! She is very thorough and really cares about your pets. We had a gas leak from a burner when she came to check on my dogs and she took care of them and our apartment. She even checked in on us the next day to make sure everyone was ok. Overall very happy to have someone who is caring and responsible looking after our pets!!

About: I love dogs. Friends call me the whisperer. I lost my Princess 2 years ago to cancer and I find that this is the best medicine for me. I love to travel so having another baby right now is not in the cards. Taking care of your baby is the next best thing. I have had people fly me out to Portland, California, and New York to pet sit for them. I absolutley love it. Some of the dogs I have cared for were sick or new family members. I love to take them on new adventures but only if Mom and Dad are okay with it. I also love to train, play, and hug on them. My only job is taking care of your dog, so I am with them the entire day and night. Sometimes they will go on a golf cart ride with me. My yard is not fenced in so your dog would be walked regularly. There are plenty of grassy areas next to and accross the street from me. If there is a schedule you have for the dog that is what will be followed.

Melissa and her hubby Mike were a delight to meet and true animal lovers, they took wonderful care of our Ellie, an 80lb old English Sheepdog. We were in a last minute bind and were going to be gone for 10 hours and wanted to make sure our pup was checked on and let out, and Mike played her and sent great pics too, which was most comforting... We will surely be using them again very soon. Thank you Melissa & Mike!

I cannot say enough about how great Berkley was. She went above and beyond while dropping in on my cats. Berkley took extra care in making sure the cats were happy and cared for. I received plenty of videos and pictures of all 3 of my cats while I was away. Made me feel at peace knowing they were so well cared for while I was out of state. I would absolutely use Berkley again!

About: I’ve worked with animals since I was 16 years old, and have extensive experience as both a veterinarian technician and kennel technician. Because of my skills attained through working with many different animals I am able to provide care for dogs of many different needs. I can administer medication, work with dogs with disabilities, and provide abundant care for dogs of all ages and breeds. Please consider me when looking for someone to take care of your babies while you’re away! I currently work full time as a Radiation Therapist in The Villages, FL and my work days are typically 8-5:30 Monday-Friday. Because of this I have listed my availability as the weekends so that I can provide ample time to spend with your fur babies. However, I am available for dog walking anytime after 6 in the evening during work days as well if you work the night shift, or may get home late. I generally never travel for holidays, so keep me in mind when the time comes for that as well please! I have two pups-6 and 11 year old pit bulls that LOVE to play with other dogs. They both go to daycare every week and would love to meet your pups if that is something you would be comfortable with as well. If not, no worries, I understand!

About: I've been blessed to have had dogs and cats most of my entire life. This is the first time I haven't had my own dog and I miss her daily. Pet sitting fills a void in my heart and I will do everything to ensure your pet is happy, healthy and well taken care of. I recently relocated back to California from Lake Lure, North Carolina. My entire community in Western NC was devastated by Hurricane Helene and I was evacuated and returned home near my family. I have enjoyed all of the amazing dogs and animals I have had the pleasure of sitting in the past through Rover.com. Now that I am back in CA I would like to continue my work with animals. I am a responsible caring person who loves animals and am currently available to help with your pets in Santa Maria, Santa Barbara, or Santa Ynez Valley. I would never trust a client's dog off a leash. Your animals will never be left alone and always escorted on their walks, unless otherwise told by the owner. Your pets will enjoy the comforts of their own home and be safe while you are away.

About: Pets have always been a part of my life—whether fur, scales, or feathers, there’s never been a time my home wasn’t shared with animals. I truly believe pets don’t just live in a house—they make it a home and become family. I recently welcomed a playful cat named Ducky, who has quickly reminded us what it’s like to have curiosity, energy, and a bit of chaos woven into everyday life. That same appreciation for each pet’s personality carries into the care I provide. Whether it’s a quick visit or a longer stay, you can count on me to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for as if they were my own. I focus on maintaining their routine, minimizing stress, and making sure they feel secure and at ease—until you’re back home and reunited. I'm currently a reservist in the military, so I have a lot of free time to help busy schedules and vacations. You want to take that cruise you have been planning? Or have a busy meeting to go to? You can count on me We share our home with a lively, vocal kitty named Ducky who keeps things active and full of personality. She’s playful, curious, and always ready to “chat,” which has made us very attentive to creating a safe, calm, and well-managed environment for all animals in our care. That same level of awareness and responsibility extends to every pet I look after. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort, ensuring each pet feels secure and cared for as part of the family while they’re with me.

About: Over the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From an energetic 8-month-old Staffy puppy I cared for over 6 weeks to sweet senior dogs who need gentle, patient love, I tailor my care to each dog's unique personality and needs. I've worked with a variety of breeds including Great Danes, Border Collies, terriers, and rescue dogs. Whether your pup needs high-energy playtime, calm companionship, or specialized attention, I'm here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away Over the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From an energetic 8-month-old Staffy puppy I cared for over 6 weeks to sweet senior dogs who need gentle, patient love, I've worked with Great Danes, Border Collies, terriers, rescues, and more. I love going on walks while listening to music or audiobooks, so adding a friendly dog companion is never a hassle! Whether your pup wants to stop and smell every smell or needs a brisk walk to burn off energy, I'm happy to match their pace. I'm also available for drop-in visits to check on your pet, let them out in the backyard, or provide midday company. For cat parents: I understand that cats need patience and respect. I've cared for both indoor and outdoor cats, including seniors requiring medication like steroid treatments every other day. I always let cats come to me on their own time—no forced cuddles, just calm, reliable care. Unfortunately, I'm not offering boarding at my home right now, but I'm happy to provide walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting at your place! Since I'm currently offering drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting at the client's home, I focus on making your pet feel comfortable and keeping their normal routine. For dogs: I follow your feeding schedule, take them on walks that match their energy level (whether that's a leisurely sniff-filled stroll or a brisk energy-burner), and provide plenty of playtime and attention. I'm happy to let them out in the backyard for potty breaks and will stick to any special instructions you have. For cats: I respect their independence and let them approach me on their own timeline. I'll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and medication if needed. I'm experienced giving treatments like steroids to senior cats. General care: I'll send you photos and updates so you know your pet is doing well. I can also bring in mail, water plants, or adjust blinds to keep your home looking lived-in while you're away. My goal is to provide stress-free care so your pet stays happy and comfortable in their own environment, and you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

About: A lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses! Growing up with multiple dogs in the house at all times, neighbors and friends have trust me countless times to ensure their furbabies are well cared for and loved on while their lives take them elsewhere!

About: Hello, my name is Olivia. I am a 26 year old who has a passion for taking care of animals. I have one dog, her name is Ella. Ella is a medium sized mixed breed. I have been around animals for my entire life, mostly medium to large sized dogs. I’ve also cared for an abundance of cats, hamsters, fish, etc. I have always had a soft spot for helping out those who needed a sitter for their dog, whether it was for 2 hours or even a week! I am working part time in Ocala, but would enjoy the opportunity to help out in my off time. I would love to have the opportunity to grow my reputation as a dog sitter in the community, while doing what I love the absolute most!! I currently work full time throughout the week, but I am able and willing to work around my schedule to help those in need :) I treat every home I enter like it is my own. I am very respectful of others’ spaces and property, as well as their fur babies.
