About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“We’re so grateful to Natianna for taking such great care of our two cats over the past four months. She was more than just a petsitter. She really gave them love and attention, and it showed. Her care for our cats gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, kind, and clearly cared about them. We feel really lucky to have found her!”
“Katherine has been awesome! This has been super easy and she has taken such great care of my babies, has been on time each visit and sends pictures. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life, dating back to my parents’ cats they had before I was born. One of my favorite childhood memories is the day we got our family dog Jaybo when I was in first grade and a great memory of my adulthood is when I got my dog Finn in 2018. In my friend group, I have become someone who friends look to for help with taking care of their pets. I love all dogs and will treat yours as if it is my own pet if you entrust them into my care, be it for walks or drop-in visits. I’m currently working a few different part-time jobs which have flexible schedules so I can meet pretty much whatever visitation demands you would like for your dog and would be happy to give them the love, attention and exercise they need while you’re away. I have a small back patio with some grass and would be sure they are well-exercised with walks around my neighborhood. At home, I have a seven-year hound/shepherd mix named Finn who is friendly with all dogs and would love to play with your dog if they are open to that but is also great at reading energies of other dogs and will give space if that’s what your dog prefers.
“Melanie is great! She took good care of our cat and communicated well with detailed daily updates. I will definitely be booking her again next time we need a cat sitter.”
“I highly recommend Elizabetg. She was incredibly responsive and punctual during her visits with my dogs while I was away. The dogs were happy and well taken care of when I returned home. I truly appreciated her professionalism and care!”
“Stefani came by twice a day and took my girls for walks and fed for me while I had to be out of town for a trip. Kept me updated every visit with texts and photos. Appreciated her greatly and her patience with my girls.”
About: I've been taking care of pets for family and friends since I was 16. I truly love spending time with animals and giving them the love and attention they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I'm home in Jacksonville for the summer and taking online classes, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they need. I always try to make pets feel safe and comfortable, whether I’m in my home or yours. I stick to their routine, give them lots of love and attention, and make sure they’re well cared for. I’m also super respectful of your space and treat your pet like part of the family.
“Extremely professional. She did nothing but communicate the entire time I was away. I felt like I had nothing to worry about at all, which was so reassuring because this is my first time ever hiring a cat sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you again”
“Jade did such a great job with Bo and was both timely and communicative. She helped us when we needed some minute help with our dog and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout. Greatly appreciated her help and would definitely rebook and recommend her :)”

“Charli was absolutely wonderful as a sitter!! As a vet student it’s hard to find someone you trust with your pets when you know so much, but I can definitely trust charli! She followed all instructions on my pets (2 cats and 2 dogs, plus a ferret), provided me with pictures when I asked, and made me feel comfortable to leave my babies in such good hands!

Tallahassee pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jami was outstanding with our two cats! She went over and above making sure the cats were safe due to the fact of workers needing to come in to do some repairs unexpectedly. She wrote notes making sure the workers kept the doors closed. The reports were detailed and pics were very comforting. She followed our food and feeding instructions to the tee. Highly recommend Jami! She also has a great sense of humor we greatly appreciated! I would trust any much-loved pets with her care. She responded quickly to any question we had but we didn't have to say much because the experience went so well! Not enough stars available for her rating! Our cats are smiling!
Emily was great with our pup! She was prompt, professional and extremely sweet to our 100lb dog. Our pup has never been so happy and at ease staying home while we’re away. We 💯 percent recommend Emily to look after your pets while away and we will be reaching out to her again!
It was our first time using rover and we could not be more pleased. Before, we would return to stressed or sick pups. This time, it was like returning home after work any day. Both pups appeared content and no sigs of stress at all. They ate well and slept well without any issues. Thank you Kayla❣️ You were great with kai and lily! Also, appreciate all the pictures! Thank you, rover! We’ll continue to use your services from now on.
Nellymar is an amazing sitter! She showed up on time for every visit and her communication was phenomenal. She followed Meechy’s care plan perfectly with no issues at all. Meechy is super energetic, but she handled him so well and kept him happy and engaged. She was very attentive and gave him lots of love and belly rubs. Meechy absolutely adored her! I would easily rate her a 10+. I’ll definitely be booking her again anytime I need a sitter.
Zeus might have a new favorite friend at the house! We absolutely love MacKenzie and she did a wonderful job. MacKenzie was even early and stayed a few extra minutes to make sure Zeus was all set. We are grateful to have found her and will absolutely use her again in the future.
Roxana has replaced my longtime sitter of two years, and it will take an adjustment, but she was patient even when my cats were skittish. My oldest has slight separation anxiety and disappears to search for me until I return. Roxana understood and offered suggestions. There is a learning curve to my system so we had to work through some issues. It will take some time for pets to adjust.
We have just started with Sebastian and he has been very reliable and timely in helping us check on our dog midday. Cooper is a little shy and Sebastian has been very nice about getting to know him gradually with each visit. Sebastian was also available last minute to help us recently one day as well which was greatly appreciated Plus Sebastian is easy to contact and responds quickly.
I highly recommend Audrey for any pet care needs! Her passion for animals is truly remarkable, and she have a natural ability to connect with them. Whether it’s walking dogs or providing care for a variety pets, Audrey is attentive, responsible, and incredibly loving. Pets thrive in her presence, and you can trust her to treat your furry friends like family. She gives my picky/shy Pomeranian perfect. If you want someone who genuinely cares and will go the extra mile for your animals, look no further!
Les provided exceptional care for our cat, Tequi! We felt so comfortable knowing she was in good trustworthy loving hands. She even went above and beyond cleaning up our floors after Tequi made a mess. We will definitely look to have Les watch our pets in the future. Highly recommend!
Erica was fantastic! My Sadie typically takes time to warm up to people but took to Erica almost immediately. Erica's knowledge of dogs personalities and quirks was perfect for my girl. I recommend her to anyone and will definitely hire her again to take care of my baby girl.
