“Ana is amazing our puppy was safe and had so much fun they sent a lot of updates which we loved ? thank you so much Ana and her husband we will be back ! Besito loves you guys”
“Christine took very good care of my dog. Sent updates. With pictures and videos. To check in on our Luna. Would definitely use her again. And would recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter”
“Maria was an excellent host for our precious little one! She was very accommodating to all of her needs and always updated us with pictures. I highly recommend her!! Thank you for all your loving care, Maria!”
“We left our 8 month old goldendoodle Millie for a week with Hailey, and it was a very positive and smooth experience. It’s clear that both Hailey and her boyfriend love dogs, at dropoff Hailey was very accommodating as we went through feeding/walking instructions and talked about Millie’s preferences (especially sleeping on the bed with us, which Hailey said would be totally fine if that’s what Millie wanted to do during her stay). Hailey’s house has a nice-sized and totally enclosed backyard area for outdoor access which is great. And Hailey has small dogs of her own (though she dog-sits for all sizes) which i felt was good for Millie’s socialization skills development (she’s still a puppy). During our week of travel Hailey was quick to respond to text messages and she sent photos and videos so that we could see that Millie was doing well. Next time we travel will definitely check first to see if Hailey is available - strong recommend.”
“Laritza cared for my dog Riley like her own. I have never left him with anyone other than family but she made me so safe with leaving my baby in her hands. She was kind and loving to him. She updated me every day of my trip and it was overall the best decision I could have made. I will be rebooking in the future. Thank you so much Laritza 🥹❤️🐾”
“Marcy is AWESOME!!! Rocco's vacations on Marcy's home was phenomenal. While traveling, we received a bunch of pictures, videos, and daily news about Roccos' routine. We never felt we had left Rocco in someone else house due to Marcy took care of Rocco as we desired. He did enjoy that much until we had doubts if he'd want to go back home with us... HAHAHAHA! Now, since we got back home and are calmer, we definitely wouldn't think twice once we have to take vacations or we get something to do out of town... we do know for sure that we've found a good company for him, an excellent dog sitter, but over all things a great pet-lovers in Marcy's family. Thanks, Marcy & Family once again for making Rocco's week was unforgettable! See you soon :D”
“Maydel is amazing with my dog Daisy! She keeps me updated with messages and pictures, takes her on walks, and gives her so much love. I can relax on vacation knowing Daisy is in such great hands. I love leaving Daisy with you and thank you so much for your kindness ❤️”
“Elizabeth took very good care of my cat at her house and kept me posted with photos and videos during à 2 day stay. She was also very friendly and responsive. Will recommend her 100%.”
“Mario and Yanet were wonderful. They were very attentive and kind to Sammy. They sent videos and photos of Sammy having a good time and that reassured us he was doing fine. Thank you, Mario and Yanet.”
“Andrea is now Ellie’s step mom! I was in the midst of travel and a move and Andrea provided the most warm and loving environment for my sweet fur ball! The puparazzi was so appreciated and she is a wonderful communicator!”
“Yishan and Shawn were the perfect sitters for our girl Sadie! They were very attentive, very communicative, and loved her as if she was their own. They kept us updated on how she was doing and all the fun she was having with their dog Bubbles. We will definitely use them again soon!”
“Maria was very kind and attentive, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about animals. My cat, was very happy and comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. She consistently kept me updated with pictures and videos of Malous, which really reassured me that everything was going well while I was away. I always felt confident that my cat was in good hands. I would definitely choose Maria again for my next vacation.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has continued to be a huge part of my life as an adult. Today, my own animal family includes two dogs, two outdoor cats, and a myriad of other types of animals. Having such a variety of animals has given me years of hands-on experience with feeding routines, exercise, basic grooming, medication, monitoring behavior, and recognizing when an animal just doesn't seem like themselves. My experience these animals has also taught me a great deal about patience, consistency, reading animal body language, and respecting each animal's individual personality and boundaries. At home, I have two friendly dogs as well as young children, so safety and compatibility are extremely important to me. For services that take place in my home, I'm selective about the dogs I accept and prefer friendly, family-oriented dogs that are comfortable around children and other dogs. I want every stay to be safe, relaxed, and enjoyable for my family, my pets, and yours. I'm happy to follow your pet's established routine and provide plenty of updates and photos. I understand how much trust you're placing in someone when you leave an animal you love in their care, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they're receiving attentive, affectionate care while you're away. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine! With two dogs, two cats, fish, and other types of animals of my own, my days already revolve around feeding, checking in on animals, exercise, cleaning, and making sure everyone is happy and healthy. My schedule has flexibility that allows me to offer your pet the daily care and attention they need in my home. I’m also a mom, so I’m used to managing routines, schedules, and lots of moving pieces! I only accept bookings that comfortably fit into my schedule so I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve rather than overbooking myself. For pets staying in my home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I have two dogs and young children, so I’m selective about the dogs I accept. Dogs staying with us must be friendly, comfortable around children, and get along well with other dogs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal feeding schedule, potty routine, medications, and other care instructions as closely as possible. They’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and opportunities to relax and feel at home. I’m also happy to send photos and updates throughout their stay so you can see how they’re doing. I only accept dogs that I feel will be a good match for our household, and I won’t overbook. I want every dog staying with us to receive individual attention while keeping the environment safe and peaceful for both our family and our pets.
“Kim and Wil were fantastic sitters for Bailey. I picked her up and she was a tired, happy girl. I appreciated the daily updates, and reassurance on points I had mentioned before I left. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter for there pup.”
“Couldn’t have chosen a better nanny!!! I’m a helicopter Mom, and SO overprotective of my English bully! At 9 months old I had to leave Fiona behind for a full month while I was away for surgery, and Kiara was the perfect choice. She was very polite, communicative, easy going and understanding to say the least (what with all my annoying texts, LOL). She sent multiple daily updates, including pics and videos, she provided daily excercise and doggie walks, she taught my girl how to use stairs, and I could tell Fiona was being loved and spoiled. Kiara provided incredible relief during such a hard time for us. Our girl was strong, healthy and happy as a bird when I picked her up, and I would not hesitate to leave her with Kiara again. Thank you!!!!”
About: What makes me different is that caring for dogs is not just something I love, it’s my profession! 🐾❤️ I own my own mobile grooming business, have a background as a veterinary assistant in my home country, and have completed courses in dog training and behavior. I also offer a loving, cage-free home environment with a backyard where dogs can play, relax, and feel comfortable. I treat every dog like part of my family, providing personalized attention, lots of love, and a safe, stress-free experience while they’re away from home. My goal is to make every pup feel right at home! 🐶💕 Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! 🐾 There will always be someone home to supervise and care for the dogs, so they’ll never be left alone. We provide a loving, safe, and comfortable environment where every pup receives plenty of attention, care, and affection throughout the day. ❤️ In my home, dogs are treated like family! 🐾❤️ I provide a loving, cage-free environment where pups are welcome to relax on the furniture, feel comfortable, and make themselves right at home. We have a fully fenced backyard where they can safely play and enjoy some fresh air. I also have a sweet 5-year-old son who absolutely loves dogs and is always excited to play with them (always under adult supervision, of course!). My goal is to make every pup feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as they would in their own home! 🐶💕
“We planned a vacation and had to find a place for our puppy, Apollo, to stay. After researching tirelessly, we decided to book his stay with Leonora. This was, by far, one of the best decisions we made for our doggie! I was so nervous leaving him as this was our first time away from him for so long. Leo put me at ease and was patient and so kind. During our time away, she sent us soooo many pictures (which we loved!) and several updates. This gave us peace of mind, knowing that while we were enjoying our vacation, Apollo was having a fun vacation of his own. Our puppy played with several dogs and received so much love. Upon picking him up, his things had been gathered and he smelled so good! It was a positive experience well beyond our expectations. We look forward to leaving Apollo in Leo and Tyler’s care again in the future because we know he is in the best hands.”
“Mia is a caring and lovely person. I recommend her 1000%. I have two Weimaraner puppies and finding a good second home was important specially at this age. I had to leave for a business trip and my heart was broken to leave them behind. We visited multiple pet resorts in the vicinity and nothing compares to Mia. When we found her was the perfect match. The facilities are top notch and her care and love exceeds expectations.”

Jennifer is amazing and completely goes above and beyond for your dog child. I don’t think my dog wanted to come back home lol. She just a beautiful person that loves what she does. I will not hesitate to call her whenever I need someone to care for Marlon(my dog). She’s the best.
Kimberly was an amazing dog sitter! From the beginning, she was very communicative and caring. She sent pictures and videos every day, which gave me peace of mind and let me see how happy and comfortable my dog was with her. You can truly tell that Kimberly has so much extra love to give to the dogs in her care. I really appreciated all the little extra things she did that made her such a wonderful sitter. I highly recommend Kimberly and would definitely trust her with my dog again!
Absolutely lovely and wonderful pet sitter! She was very responsive, caring, and attentive throughout the entire stay. Most importantly, my dog came home happy, calm, and relaxed, which gave me great peace of mind. I truly appreciated the care and attention she provided. I would definitely recommend her and will happily use her services again! 🐾❤️
This is the second time I use Carmen, and I must say I love the way she takes care of Ravioli. Always send me pictures, she always seems like she is having fun running around with her other furry friends etc. I will definitely use her whenever I go on a trip. Thank you Carmen!
Maria took care of my two dogs for 5 days and she was very loving and attentive with both of them . Everyday she would send me pictures and texts letting me know how they were doing . They both seemed very happy . I would definitely use Maria again ! Thank you Maria !
Camille is a wonderful, and patient, sitter! She had our 1 year old pup for 5 days, taking all of his puppy-ness in stride. He even learned some good manners while there! (He’s now asking to get on the couch ☺️) She set pics and videos every day and we felt very confident he’s was being well looked after.
Yacqueline was kind, patient, accommodating and communicative. We really appreciated her timely updates and photos! Our dog, Oliver, had a mini-vacation with her including lots of cuddles and walks along the lake! He had an amazing time and his parents (us) were able to rest knowing he was in good hands. Thank you, Yacqueline!
We had a last-minute weekend trip and were incredibly thankful to find Jackie! From the moment we dropped off Huxley, we knew he was in the best hands. Jackie and her family (including their adorable fur babies) welcomed him like one of their own and took exceptional care of him. He had fresh food and water, daily walks, lots of playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Throughout the weekend, Jackie sent regular photos and updates, giving us complete peace of mind and allowing us to truly enjoy our trip knowing Huxley was happy, safe, and well cared for. We are so grateful for the love and care she gave him and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. We can’t wait to see you again, thank you! 🐾💙
Yishan and Shawn were the perfect sitters for our girl Sadie! They were very attentive, very communicative, and loved her as if she was their own. They kept us updated on how she was doing and all the fun she was having with their dog Bubbles. We will definitely use them again soon!
Paulandrea made leaving our dogs for the first time such a smooth and reassuring experience. We left our dogs at her place for the weekend. She kept us updated with pictures throughout, which gave us great peace of mind. We will definitely use her dog-sitting services again!
Christopher was an excellent sitter for our dog Chase, a large Golden Retriever. He looked after him with great care and provided pictures and communication throughout our trip. Chase was really happy playing with his small dog and I would definitely recommend Christopher to anyone needing a responsible dog sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their The Hammocks home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your The Hammocks.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your The Hammocks sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
