“My dogs loved Jenelle and so did we! We could tell from the interactions that they were in very capable and loving hands. Throughout the stay, Jenelle sent numerous photos (and texts) of her playing,exercising and cuddling with both Ivy and Harley We left detailed instructions for the care of our house and pets which she followed to our greatest satisfaction. Our house was spotless when we returned and both dogs were happy and content We have finally met a very responsible and affectionate young lady that we can entrust with the care of our home and pets to. We plan on hiring Jenelle in the future and highly recommend her services. When it comes to trusting the care of both home and pets to someone and having peace of mind in doing so, we have been truly blessed with Jenelle. 🙂”
“Emma was great with Boomer! He's a big boy and can be intimidating but Emma and he made fast friends and she very quickly knew him for the sweetheart he is. She took great care of him so that we could relax and enjoy our time away. We will check with Emma again in the future when the need arises.”
“Shyann was amazing! She stayed at our house and sent us lots of daily photos and updates of our fur babies. I felt super comfortable being away. I would recommend Shyaan to anyone and feel relieved to have found her for any future trips I take!”
About: i’ve taken care of dogs/ cats since i was preteen, but the last 5 years is when i’ve began doing it more frequently. i’ve cared for medically needy animals aswell so i am very comfortable with pretty much any need an animal may have. i’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have helped train and care for family pets aswell. i help take care of my dads animals, walking and running his dog. i currently am free 7 days a week aside from one online course that i do at my own pace. i follow the clients directions specially when walking or letting an animal out. i never let a dog out alone especially smaller dogs at night.
“David did a great job of caring for our dog while we were on vacation, he was attentive to Casper and frequently sent updates and pictures. I highly recommend him for his excellent services.”
“Debra was AWESOME!!!! She was so good with our pups, and she followed their schedule, which is important in older dogs! She sent lots of pictures and updates and asked questions when she was unsure of something. She went above and beyond by taking our trash out, washing the sheets and making the bed she slept in, and making sure the house was nice and clean when we got home. I will DEFINITELY be utilizing Debra to watch our pups again!!!”
About: I been around and had a dog for most of my childhood. I would feed and walk my relatives dogs when they were away or busy. I do have a full time job, but I want stay busy and have a side hustle. Plus, caring for animals give me joy ☺️ I prefer to take care of your pet in the comfort of your home. A place for your pet that is familiar to them to feel comfortable.
About: My husband and I grew up loving dogs and, in fact, met through our pups. A real life case of puppy love! I grew up raising labs with my parents and through my work abroad have come to adopt two dogs of my own - Chance from Sudan and Mia from Colombia. My husband , David, studied veterinary medicine in Colombia where he has offers private dog training and runs a successful dog school (Gooddog Colegio Canino Campestre) for nearly 10 years. We hope to open a pet shop in MD soon. In the meantime, we hope to make more furry friends part of our extended family here and to save up for this dream to become a reality. When not focused on our dog business, we are proud parents to our own adopted pups and are always looking to take on more. In the near future we’ll also join Guiding Eyes and train dogs for the blind. We are true believers that pets are part of our families and look to take care of each clients’s pet as if they were our own. With us, you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands with a team that has extensive professional and medical experience working with dogs and, most importantly, is passionate about creating the perfect environment for humans and animals to interact. Let us share our love for animals with your family by becoming part of ours. A little about me personally: I’ve worked for the federal government nearly 15 years and take my responsibilities very seriously. I consider myself detail oriented but flexible. I will always do my best to go the extra mile and keep clients informed of everything through regular texts and photos. I’m also always looking to learn and welcome recommendations on how I can grow. Our home in Hyattsville has a fully fenced in backyard with a doggie door for easy access in and outside. We’re also surrounded by plenty of parks and green spaces and, on the weekends, love to explore new places with our pups and their stay-over friends! I have standard work hours during the week and great flexibility on the weekend. I’m on a hybrid telework schedule so the number of days I go into the office varies by week. I’m happy to try to rework my schedule to adapt to the needs of long term care or repeat clients. Our two pups are very easy going and have never had a problem with any other pets. They love the company and vice versa! Pets are able to roam the bottom floor of the house and fenced backyard freely. We also have crates of all sizes for those who prefer it.
“Ela for the win!!!!!!! Definitely one of the best sitters I’ve ever had and I travel a ton so I’ve had more than I can count. Ela is empathic (not many people truly are) so she is someone safe to leave your animals with. Super easy to communicate with and left my place exactly the way I had left it. Sent lots of pictures and updates and I came home to a happy and calm family. Will be inviting her back for another upcoming trip!”
About: I grew up with three dogs in my home along with pet sitting neighbors dogs growing up. I’ve dealt with a large range of breeds and sizes of dogs. I am a huge dog lover with tons of energy, love and time to give! I recently got laid off so I am doing this full-time and appreciate any and all of your business! I live in an apartment, which is almost 900 ft.² by myself! I live in a great community for walks and options of dog parks for socializing if said parents approve!
About: I’ve baby sat many pets in my neighborhood growing up, I love spending time with animals of any kind! They make me so happy :) I’m currently studying to become a veterinary technician and work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and care. I love taking walks at Linear Park and spending time at Bonita Dog Beach with my senior pup. She is extremely friendly and absolutely loves the company of other cats and dogs, so your furry friend will have a welcoming companion during their stay! I’m available for house sitting, boarding in my home, or dog walks—whatever works best for you and your pet. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I live in a pet friendly apartment. There is also a dog park and dog spa on the property! I I can ensure your pet will get plenty of exercise on our walk and there’s plenty of beautiful things to explore!
About: I am a middle school math teacher for Lee County Schools! I work Monday-Friday, but have weekends free! I have been on Rover for about 4 year now! I really enjoy dog and cat sitting as a side job! I’m open to stay over night if needed. That’s why my house sitting rate is $40. My rate for not staying over night is $30. I do a lot of dog and cat sitting off of this app. So I have a lot more experience than what’s is on this app. Please feel free to ask me any questions you have about scheduling. I’ll be happy to discuss anything with you. It will be a great experience for all of us. Including our furry friends! I look forward to working with you and your pets! Thank you in advance! I am available after school and on weekends. I have a pretty steady and reliable schedule, so it’s easy to plan ahead and make adjustments. As I’m typing this, my cat is rubbing his face on my phone. I’d say my cat at home is pretty happy and spoiled. I think a really important part of pet care is having some sort of schedule, and being sure to put in time to give your pet attention.
About: I've had both dogs and cats as pets my whole life and understand how important they are in our lives. Experience volunteering for the Animal Welfare League and other organizations as a dog walker and in cat care. Can handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Experienced in pet sitting overnight if needed and willing to go the extra mile (literally) if you have a high energy dog or one trying to lose weight. Very attuned to an pet's needs and great attention to detail. Great at building a rapport with even shy cats. Very flexible schedule especially with some notice in advance. I work from home and essentially set my own hours, so if anything comes up I can be there when you need me. I will ask for your preference as far as desired length of walk (or run), care/feeding instructions and other things to look out for regarding your pet. I absolutely love animals, so I will make sure they are as comfortable as possible with me and of course will show them lots of love and playtime if they're up for it. Let me know any special requests that will make your pets happy!
“Jordan was amazing! She kept me posted with pictures and text to ensure I knew they were happy and enjoying themselves. We had a recent diagnosis for Miss Coco, and Jordan was so empathetic and put me at ease while I was out of town. Thanks again Jordan!!”
“Lia did a great job with our three big dogs. She was timely on the day we had the meet and greet. My dogs loved her. She was also right on time the day we left for our trip. She took great care of our pets and sent us lots of pics and updates. We had some major travel delays on our return date. Lia was completely understanding about our very late return.”
About: Throughout my high school and college experiences, I have fulfilled my volunteer hours working with local humane socialites! Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Having earned my bachelor’s in psychology, I was able to take a course about therapy using animals! Currently I am a fine dining server for a restaurant only open for dinner! So I am only ever unavailable for 4-5 hours most days, but can make stops before and after going to work!! My schedule has made me very flexible, and I would love to help those take care of their fur babies who may need an extra hand! I am currently employed at a fine dining seafood restaurant job that is open 4PM- 10PM everyday! I wake up early and have the whole day available until my nightly shift. And, I never would mind making a stop after I get off work! I just moved recently, so I am scouting 2 cats myself. With that, I recently moved out of my ex- lover’s house where he had a cat and 2 dogs. There was a completely fenced in backyard for the puppies to play, and plenty of space for the cat to roam! I’m my new house, we have an extra room that will be dedicated to the kitty’s and will be called the “cat room”, while we also have quite a large back patio where they can freely roam and get fresh air!!
About: Hey! So, what really sets me apart as a sitter is that I’m super attentive and caring, whether it’s training puppies or giving extra love to senior pets. I’m great at understanding their unique needs and making sure they feel comfy and happy. Plus, I’m always ready to handle any special care they might need! Pet care is something I make a priority in my daily and weekly routine. I set aside specific times for feeding, exercise, play, and any training or special care needed. Consistency is key, so I keep a schedule that fits the pet's individual needs, whether it's a lively puppy needing lots of energy outlets or a senior pet requiring gentle attention and medication. This way, I ensure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for every day. What’s your pet’s routine like? When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at ease. I stick to their usual feeding and exercise routines, provide plenty of playtime, and give lots of attention to keep them happy. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely to maintain consistency for the pet. I also make sure to respect the home’s rules and keep everything tidy. Whether it’s at my place or theirs, my goal is to make the pet feel loved and secure.
“Carol was wonderful. My Lilboy decided the day before my trip to hurt his back leg . She kept a watchful eye on him and kept him quiet. My pups really liked her. She sent pictures and updates.”
“Velvet was wonderful! Our Bear is an old guy with special needs and medications and Velvet did a great job handling all that he needed. She kept us in the loop on all meals, walks and medications and even sent us photos along the way so we could see how happy he was (maybe too happy without us! LOL). We arrived home to a happy pup and our home safe and sound. We will definitely use Velvet again in the future :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Suncoast Estates
Katherine was great! We did a meet and greet before the date. She was warm and friendly and clearly not bothered by our crazy dogs. She asked a lot of appropriate questions demonstrating she was very knowledgeable and professional. She communicated with us during our trip and sent some pics and videos of the boys too. She was able to keep a scared pittie calm during a storm and entertain a very high energy lab all day long! She even washed her blanket and towels, vacuumed and cleaned the dog slobber off the sliding glass doors before we got home! We’d choose Katherine again without hesitation.
Lydia was absolutely incredible, and I can’t recommend her enough! She stayed at our home while caring for our dog, Covey, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She followed all of our instructions, kept our home spotless, and treated both our dog and our house with so much respect. We came home to a happy pup and a house that looked just as good as when we left. Knowing everything was in such good hands allowed us to fully enjoy our trip without worrying.
Lindsey did an amazing job caring for Rae and Austin over the holiday weekend. The pets were incredibly well cared for, the house was spotless when we returned, and she shared plenty of photos and updates throughout the stay which gave us great peace of mind. Coming home to such happy pets made all the difference. We truly appreciated her care, communication, and attention to detail, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Suncoast Estates walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Suncoast Estates maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Suncoast Estates 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!

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.
