“Hannah did a fantastic job taking care my three kitties! She kept me informed about the cats every day and sent pictures of my babies each day as well. All three cats were calm and happy on my return and I won't hesitate to book Hannah again!”


“Crystal is great! We’ve been using her to pet sit for about a year now. She is friendly and very communicative and she takes great care of our very senior dog and cats”


“Amazing care and my cat loves her!! First sleepover for a week while I was gone and she was super efficient and went the extra mile taking care of Kaydo. I Highly recommend Ashley.”


“Alexis took such good care of my girls. She was also amazing during the meet and greet with my crazy boy Archie (I already had him booked for refresher training during this trip). I’ll definitely be going to Alexis as a trusted sitter for my tribe from here on out!”


About: As a fellow pet owner, I understand the importance of truly special care. That's why I go beyond the basics, providing personalized, expert attention that caters to your pet's unique needs, always prioritizing their physical and emotional well-being. Let's schedule a meet and greet to discuss how I can care for your furry best friend! Caring for animals is a natural extension of my daily life. My routine for my own pets includes time for walks, playtime, and grooming, which allows me to genuinely connect with them, address their needs, and reinforce positive behaviors throughout the day. This is the same expert care I aim to provide for your beloved animals. A comfortable and trusting environment is key to a pet's well-being. I achieve this by maintaining routines and minimizing stress for all pets, from energetic pups to calm seniors. Since every animal is unique, I personalize practices like playtime, feeding, and bonding with plenty of affection for their complete physical and emotional comfort.

“Katherine did an excellent job caring for my pup. She arrived on time for the meet and greet and to take care of Twyla. She sent lots of updates and pictures of my sweet girl that eased my mind while away. Highly recommend Katherine if you’re looking for in home care!”


“So polite and professional. Took amazing care of my baby. Will be booking again.”


“I recently had the pleasure of having Ligia take care of my dog, Nala. I couldn't have been happier with the service provided. As an owner of a Great Dane, I am always nervous about leaving her due to their susceptibility to bloat. She was incredibly attentive to this concern, ensuring that received proper feeding and care to minimize any risks. Ligia provided regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog seemed happy and well-cared for. The house was left in perfect condition. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I will definitely be calling on Ligia for future dog-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”


“Shana was fantastic! She took great care of our dogs and house while keeping us updated the whole time. Our pups were happy when we got back. Highly recommend Shana – 5 stars across the board!”


“Scarlett was absolutely wonderful! Literally from meeting her to the time she left it was a great experience. We have 6 dogs and they were loved on ! Thank you so much Scarlett!”


“ I am very happy with the service Laura provided. I felt comfortable with her taking care of my dogs. She was great with both of them and will book her in the future. ”


About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had a dog for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally. From playful puppies to senior companions, I’m comfortable with all ages and have experience helping with basic training, too. While dogs are my main passion, I’m also adaptable and confident with most animals—including cats, reptiles, and even plants! I worked at a veterinary office for a year during college, which gave me hands-on experience with a wide range of pets and deepened my understanding of animal care and behavior. Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal like family. I believe in building trust—both with your pets and with you. My schedule is pretty open and flexible, so I’m happy to accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, late evenings, or anything in between. Whether you need a one-time visit or ongoing care, I’ll do my best to work around your needs and make sure your pets are always in good hands. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family—with patience, love, and respect for their unique personalities and routines. I offer everything from walks and drop-in visits to boarding, basic training, and even care for other animals like reptiles and small pets. At my home, your pet will have access to a large, fully fenced-in backyard—perfect for safe play, exercise, and fresh air. I keep a close eye on them at all times to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. Clean spaces, consistent routines, and regular updates are part of the care I provide to help you feel confident while you’re away.

“Brittany was fantastic and kept us updated with cute pics of the pups.”


About: Animal lover who had a rescue dog of her own! Experienced with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. Highly recommended by neighbors to walk, feed, and play with pets. Plenty of practice cleaning crates, litterboxes, and cages. Afternoons and evenings work best for me but I am available all day during the summer! During the school year, weekends and evenings will be my main availability. I have no pets and currently live in a second floor apartment. There is plenty of green space for walking but no off-leash areas. I have not had a pet of my own in a few years so I am not well equipped for a pet in my apartment, but I have a car and can easily travel to you.

“Sarah was awesome with my cat! Super friendly, reliable, clean and asking if any additional help needed. I loved getting little updates while I was away—it gave me total peace of mind. Definitely would have her pet sit again!”


“We are so happy with Toree. She helped us last year & left such an impression that we specifically sought her out this summer. She has the heart & soul of a true animal lover. I can’t speak highly enough of her. She’s kind, attentive, responsible, & trustworthy. AND she makes up awesome songs for the pets in her care 🥰”


“Sandra was fantastic! She and her daughter came by to meet my dogs, before they came to house and dog sit for me. My dogs took to then immediately. I appreciated how flexible ans communicative she was the weekend she watched them, which also happened to be the weekend I was getting married!”


About: Hey guys! My name is Kayley, I am originally from TN, moved to FL in 2023. I have a ton of animal experience. For many years, I did house sitting for quite a few people for quite a range of animals. I have watched horses, dogs, cats, pigs, llamas, alpacas, goats, chickens, ducks, pretty much any livestock animal you can think of. I have also worked at a doggy daycare and took dog handling classes (which also includes animal behavior classes). I am in Pet First Aid classes through Red Cross right now so I can be certified in that too. I have done a lot of pet first aid for my animals, animals on the streets and animals of friends/neighbors. The few places I have lived people would bring strays or their own animals to me and my roommate so we can evaluate the animals to assist in any way possible. I am NOT certified in anything, this is just knowledge I have from growing up in TN around all the farms I have worked on. I have taken quite a few animals off of the streets and either kept them or got them in with reputable rescues. **Please be aware, I do work full time. Generally I am off on most weekends, other days I will either work 8-5 or 9-6 so I will be able to care for animals outside of that timeframe. I do have a roommate as well (she is also a Rover sitter) so if your animal stays with me or comes to my home, my roommate is also here and can assist as well. Generally at least one of us are home, if we happen to both be out, it is one of us at work and the other headed home from work or we are running a quick errand. I also do have a vet reference that I am happy to share as well, we are well known at our vets office for our animals we take in from the streets and my dog with her health issues. (I do not have any animals from the streets in my home right now so no worries with sickness or anything, all of my animals are UTD on their vaccines.) **If you have multiple (more than 3) animals, please reach out and we can negotiate a price on the stay. I am a full time worker and I am also a part time (online) student. I have availability every day of the week, I can stay at your home or come to your home before and after my day job. I am able to care for animals in my home or in yours. I am open to anything that you normally do on a daily basis with your animals as to not cause a huge disruption to their daily schedule.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently own a playful Golden Doodle and a loyal Pit Bull. I’m experienced with all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, from cuddly companions to active pups. My calm, patient nature helps dogs feel safe and comfortable during every visit. As a teacher with summers off, I’m available full-time for pet care. I offer flexible scheduling, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, to meet your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, keep a clean and secure environment, and provide consistent, loving attention. You can count on me to treat your pets like family.

“I can’t say enough good things about the care my pets received! Mark watched my energetic dog and my ball python while I was out of town, and he was amazing with both. My dog was well-exercised, happy, and clearly loved, he even came home with better leash manners! Mark sent regular updates and photos, which really gave me peace of mind. What really impressed me was how comfortable and knowledgeable he was with my snake. It’s not easy to find someone who’s confident with reptiles, but he handled feedings and habitat checks like a pro. It’s clear he genuinely loves and understands animals of all kinds. Reliable, kind, and super accommodating, Mark will definitely be my go-to sitter from now on!”
