“I'm so glad I found Maxine! This is my second time using her service.. and I will definitely rebook with her! Thanks for another fun doggy vacation time for Daisy. She loves the walks and the chance to play with other doggies! You're the best!”
“We are super happy with the service provided by Kristin, pictures every day, Nutella seems super happy to be there, always playing and was a happy dog when I picked her up. Always great communication, going above and beyond. Will recommend 1000%!!! Thank you for a great service!”
“Once again my three thrived under the care of Krista. In her updates it was clear the dogs were involved in daily activities. Since I was driving long distance, I appreciated her flexibility with arrival time. I recommend her highly, (hoping she does not get too busy to care for my dogs on my next Fla visit)”
“A studious dog sitter. Keeps up with discipline and training. Doesn't over book where as it's a free for all She is the only sitter I would trust for doggie day care or extended use!”
“Laurie was wonderful! Our pups had an absolute blast! She sent updates, videos and pictures throughout their stay. Reached out with questions and let us know any concerns. Will book with her again!”
“Alexus was great! She communicated with us. She sent us pictures and every time I checked in she responded, and she took very good care of our children!! She’s awesome I highly recommend her!”
“Kaitilin took wonderful care of our little George. We got multiple updates and pictures - George got so many walks and lots of attention! He has some anxiety issues, but he seemed to be completely content and comfortable in Kaitilin’s care. She is very responsive, understanding, and friendly. We will definitely have her look after George again!”
“Alia was awesome with the dogs and provided me with several updates and photos while I was away! You can tell she is an animal lover and took great care of my fur babies! I definitely plan on using her in the future!!!”
“Dianette kept our fur baby Stormy while my family and I went on vacation. It was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter. I was a bit nervous but my dog had a great time with her dogs and loved her family. Dianette’s home has lots of outdoor space to offer. I could tell my dog felt safe and at home. Dianette has great communication, she provided daily updates and photos while we were away. Dianette is amazing and highly recommended.”
“Andrea is fantastic and super easy to work with! She has a lovely home and property. My dogs adjusted so well and quickly there and Andrea made them feel so right at home. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you so much Andrea for taking such good care of my kids!!”
“Super sweet, lots of communication. I felt super comfortable leaving my baby. I got picture mail throughout, and could tell she and her family genuinely love and care about animals. Will definitely be using again!”
“I'm so grateful I found this place! Carla accepted my same-day reservation, which was a lifesaver. It gave me a reliable place to leave my dogs while I enjoyed my vacation. The prices are very affordable and the service is great.”
“I am so glad that I found Carolina and her family. She is a true animal lover, and it shows in how much attention and patience she had put into caring for my cat, Mochi. Carolina went far and above beyond expectations. My Mochi had a big beautiful room with a brightly quilted bunk bed to climb on and plenty of cat trees, scratching posts, and windows in which to luxuriate in the sun. He could also enjoy piped-in music throughout the day and a big flat screen TV. He was warmly welcomed into the family home, roaming freely and playing with Carolina's many pets. He loved his vacation at Carolina's as much as I had enjoyed mine! I might also mention one aspect of this Rover experience that is critical for me and should be important to consider for other pet owners. Carolina keeps her boarding spaces immaculate. Bedding, cushions, and bowls are spotlessly sanitized, and all of her pets are on a rigid flea and worm prevention program, so there is no danger of cross contamination. I am very pleased and feel that my Mochi had a five star hotel experience for a fraction of the price.”
“Feliksa watched my dog for a full week. She sent me daily messages/pictures to update me on how Pepper was doing. I trust her completely. She was really great with Pepper when I dropped her off and picked her up. Her home was very clean so I wasn’t worried about Pepper getting into anything she shouldn’t. I will definitely be using Feliksa. This I also my first time using Rover so I was concerned how it would go but it went great.”
“Taylor and Angel have taken care of our Poppie several times. She always has a great time romping and playing with the other dogs there. Taylor and Angel send us multiple pictures during Poppie’s stay so we can see she is doing great! We love that Taylor and Angel have 3 dogs of their own and a huge fenced in yard for daily exercise and play. We know Poppie is well cared for and would highly recommend Taylor and Angel for all your pet sitting needs!”
“Idalis and her family took amazing care of my baby Penny. It was my first time leaving her with someone “unknown” and Idalis made everything feel so comfortable by setting up a meet up before and showing us all she has to offer to take care of our beloved girl. Her house and backyard are amazing, Penny was able to socialize with other dogs and she kept sending me pictures of everything they were doing while she had Penny. Overall, I’d recommend Idalis and her family to take care of your dog and would definitely be using her services again when needed! Thank you Idalis and Alex.”
“We are so grateful to Elizabeth for caring for Ruby when we went out of town for a funeral memorial. She sent us pictures and a video and checked in often to let us know Ruby was doing well. Thanks again.”
“Emily was amazing! This was first time I've left my dogs with someone that wasn't a long time friend. She made me feel very at ease. She took great care of my Beagles and Ill be using her again. Very highly recommended”
“Linda is so knowledgeable about dogs in general but also keeps you well informed about your pets wellbeing! This was our first time using her or blurring them at all and I can tell you they had a ball, which comforted us greatly. She’s a gem I would highly recommend her!”

“Jyoti was the perfect person to watch my one year old golden, Milo! I loved her flexible availability and willingness to work with my schedule. She was able to come multiple times a day and take my boy on a walk and even let him swim in our pool! I feel like he probably had more stimulating days with her than he does with me! I will absolutely be rebooking whenever I go out of town!!”
About: I’ve had cats in my life for the past 10 years and truly understand their unique personalities and needs. I’m experienced with kittens through senior cats, and I’m comfortable providing patient, attentive care at every stage. After rescuing a pregnant stray, I helped raise and bottle-feed a litter of eight kittens, giving me hands-on experience with newborn and high-needs care. I will treat your cat with the same gentleness, love, and respect I give my own.
About: Hi! I'm Ashley, a dedicated pet lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. Friends and family have trusted me for years to pet sit, whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just giving their pets the love and attention they deserve. I'm a proud dog mom to 3 girls, a 12 year old lab mix, a 4 year old yellow lab and a 3 year old lab/gsp, so I'm very comfortable with large, strong, and high-energy dogs. I understand their need for structure, exercise, and mental stimulation —and I'm always happy to keep up! I also have plenty of experience with puppies and know how important it is to be patient, consistent, and attentive to their unique personalities. My experience doesn't stop with dogs and cats-l've also cared for a bearded dragon and am confident in caring for yours whether it is a turtle/tortoise, fish or bearded dragon. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I have a flexible schedule on the weekends and plenty of availability to give your pet the time and attention they need. I also have a reliable vehicle, so I'm dependable and able to accommodate your needs. When your pet is with me, they'll be treated like family. I'll follow your routines closely to keep things consistent and stress-free, and your pet will get lots of love, playtime, and attention. I also make sure to keep you updated so you always feel connected while you are away. I work full time with weekends off, with my own adventures, I know how important it is to have someone to be able to check in on your pets. I want to be able to provide that for others. I will keep as close to their routine as possible. If I need to take them on a walk to potty or let them roam their own yard, I will do.
“They did an AMAZING job with our trio of kitties. They even got our grumpy old cat who doesn’t trust anyone to come around :) I would totally recommend them to anyone. They took care of our kitties as if they were their own and were great about communication and keeping an eye on everything.”
“Kacey was a very excellent caregiver to Sophie, as usual! I was able to have so much fun on my vacation knowing Sophie was being well taken care of back home. Sophie appreciated all the pets and treats!!! We will be booking with Kacey again 😊”
“I had an emergency hospitalization and contacted Rover. Jennifer did a great job watching my female Whippet Cinnamon 2 days in a row, playing with her, walking her, feeding her, taking her to the dog park. She took videos & pics. She did everything I asked.”
About: As a cat mom myself, I know that every cat has their own personality, routine, and boundaries. I’ll take the time to make your cat feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, brushing, cuddles, and plenty of attention or give them their space if that’s what they prefer! I have two cats of my own who I’ve raised and care for every day, so I’m very comfortable reading cat behavior and understanding when they want affection, playtime, or a little alone time. I’ll treat your cat with the same patience, gentleness, and love that I give my own. 🐱🐾

“Elizabeth was the perfect pet sitter for our cat who always hides from pet sitters. She made sure that she was eating, drinking and well each visit and even managed to snap a photo of the elusive creature-though blurry I could tell it was her! Thank you Elizabeth!”
About: Ive had numerous cats throughout my life, and they’ve always held a very special place in my heart. My current cat is a 16-year-old Siamese who I’ve had since I was 12! He’s incredibly talkative, has a huge personality, and definitely knows how to let me know what he wants. 😂 These days, he enjoys being the one and only cat in the house so he can relax and enjoy his senior years at peace. I’ve always loved that cats are such wonderfully fickle creatures — each one has their own unique personality. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each cat on their terms and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their people are away 💕
“Tanya is extremely professional, has a great memory, very reliable, and is super patient with new animals. She watched our three cats while we were out of town for the week and gave them some company. On first meeting her, she asked great questions regarding personality types and general instructions, and talked us through her soft approach to meeting our animals. She assured us that she’d devote her whole reserved time to sitting with them and letting them get to know her presence. Her notes were thorough and reassuring. We were very happy with her and even our shy cats liked her and allowed her pets. Would highly recommend.”
About: I had a cat named Climber as a child. Named for her oak tree climbing skills. Later a cat name Earl that was my office stray cat that hung around. I took him home. He was such a cool cat. Then my husband had a cat named Stranger when I met him & now we have an orange/buff female name Simon. 😸
About: As a cat owner myself, I’m happy to care for cats of all ages and personalities! Whether your cat loves attention or would rather do their own thing, I’ll follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, clean the litter box, spend time playing or just keeping them company, and give any basic medications if needed. My goal is to make sure your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for until you get home.

“Deborah did an amazing job with our 4-legged kids! After our initial meet and greet, we had such a good feeling about her and she did not let us down! She sent photos of our "kids" and took really good care of them. We were in regular communication but I didn't have to worry about anything! She bonded with our "kids" right away and I know they are much happier staying in their own home vs boarding. I would definitely recommend her! I would have given her 10 stars if it were available!”

“***** that's 5 more to make 10. Charli and her family-the human and furry kind-far exceeded my expectations! Several videos and updates. She worked hard to help my somewhat new rescue come out of her shell...and was beyond successful! She speaks our language! By the time I got back after 8hrs, Athena was conflicted about whether she wanted to stay or go. She has a gift to be cherished! Thank you!”
“Saira was great with our elderly dog and she provided us with regular updates and photos. We are so grateful to find a good sitter on the spur of the moment when the dog was too anxious to be left alone in our hotel room.”
“Excellent day care service! Sent multiple pictures and updates during the day. My Cavalier looked and felt right at home. So appreciate the help especially so last minute. Definitely recommend!”
“My rescued doxie, Buzzi, loves staying with Judi. When we get to her home, Judi opens the door and Buzzi waltzes in like it's her house. I'm pleased that my separation anxiety, stressed, little girl feels so at ease with Judi. I highly recommend Judi, and Rover.”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs all my life. I’ve volunteered at the Lake County Animal Shelter before. I am patient and loving with animals. I’m currently available and flexible with my schedule. Call me or text me for any additional details regarding scheduling. Looking forward to working with you. I don’t currently have pets. So I can give all my attention to your furry friends. I don’t have a fenced yard so leashes are required.
About: My name is Omi, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My love for pets began in childhood while growing up in Puerto Rico, where I was surrounded by cats, dogs and many other animals. Living with so many different animals taught me from an early age how to understand their unique personalities, care for their needs, and appreciate the unconditional love they give. My very first pet was a Chihuahua with a wonderfully spicy personality who quickly became a cherished member of our family. As I got older, I naturally became the person family, friends, and neighbors trusted to care for their pets whenever they traveled. I regularly looked after my aunt's dog, Rosie, cared for my neighbor's cat, Chloe, spent time with my cousin's Husky, Brooklyn, and cared for my sister's three cats by feeding them and making sure they were happy and comfortable while she was away. I truly believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and cared for just as they would at home. I have a naturally nurturing personality and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, offering plenty of affection, or simply keeping them company. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. Today, I still enjoy caring for animals and currently have a betta fish of my own. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle, I will treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I know how much our pets mean to us because they truly are family, and I would be honored to care for yours while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and spend only a few hours each day on my computer. This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard where pets can safely play and explore, and there's also a nearby dog park for walks, exercise, and extra enrichment if desired. I make sure every pet receives plenty of love, playtime, affection, and one-on-one attention while respecting their individual personalities and routines. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, relaxed environment, I'll make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I carefully follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to maintain the routine they're accustomed to. I provide plenty of affection, exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship while ensuring they always have access to fresh water and a clean, safe environment. Communication is also important to me. I'll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and receiving the same love and attention they would get at home. Every pet is unique, and I treat each one like a member of my own family.
“Chrissy is always amazing. We've loved being able to leave our puppy with her while on vacation with our family in Florida. I'd recommend her to anyone else and she's the first person I'll reach out to if I'm in the area again and need a sitter.”

“Omarielys is accommodating, reliable, and very considerate to my dog's specific needs. She is good about updates and an excellent communicator.

I highly recommend Omarielys, a very responsible dog-sitter.”
About: My Pet Care Experience I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up, my family raised a high energy Jack Russell Terrier, which taught me a lot about patience, smart play styles, and managing bold personalities. Today, my fiancé and I share our home with a happy Golden Retriever/Labrador mix and a 2 month old kitten. Caring for them daily keeps me sharp on big-dog stamina, training reinforcement, and the delicate routine needed for a growing kitten. What Sets Me Apart Multi-Breed Comfort: I am equally comfortable with small, fast-paced terriers and large, strong retrievers. Puppy & Kitten Experience: Raising a 2 month old kitten means I am used to active supervision, tracking strict feeding schedules, and managing young pet energy. Owner Peace of Mind: Because I am a pet parent myself, I know how hard it is to leave your babies behind. I focus on clear communication and sending frequent photo updates so you know they are safe and happy. My Availability & Schedule I offer flexible daytime and evening care tailored around my weekly class and work schedule. I am strictly available for Dog Walking and Drop-In Visits during the following times: Sunday & Monday: Fully available all day and evening. Tuesday: Available for morning and afternoon visits. Wednesday: Fully available all day and evening. Thursday: Available for afternoon and evening care. And weekends if needed. Because I prioritize the safety and comfort of my own pets at home, I do not offer overnight house sitting or boarding services. This allows me to dedicate 100% of my energy to focused, high-quality walks and quick drop-in care for your fur babies! My Approach to Client-Home Care & Safety Because I strictly offer Dog Walking and Drop-In Visits, my priority is keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable right in their own familiar environment while respecting your home. For Drop-In Visits (Dogs & Cats): Arrival & Security: I enter your home carefully to ensure pets don't slip out the door. I strictly follow your entry, alarm, and lock-up instructions. Routine & Care: I stick closely to your specific feeding, fresh water, and medication schedules. For cats, I handle litter box scooping and clean up any messes. Attention & Play: I dedicate my full visit to keeping your pets company, offering plenty of focused playtime, scratches, and mental stimulation. For Dog Walking:Safety First: I always check that collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before stepping outside. I keep dogs on a secure, short leash and avoid interactions with unknown dogs on the street. Weather & Hydration: Living in Florida, I make sure the pavement isn't too hot for their paws, keep walks a comfortable pace, and ensure they have plenty of fresh water immediately when we get back. I always wrap up every single visit by ensuring your home is perfectly locked up and sending you a quick summary with cute photo updates!

“Kayla was awesome! She was super flexible and took good care of our 2 boys. One had a small cut on his leg that bled a bit . She informed us, assisted in cleaning up the mess, and made sure that he was good for the night. We appreciate the extra effort and care! Definitely would book again!”
“Amber was fantastic! She took such great care of our dog, kept us updated with photos, and made the whole experience completely stress-free. Our pup came back happy, tired, and clearly loved her time with Amber. We’d gladly book with her again!”

I can meet during the week, weekends, and holidays when it is most needed at your inconvenience! ☺️ I do have an unfenced yard so I carefully watch or leash any dogs during potty time. I allow pets on my own furniture and I make sure to update any pet owners if needed! I do require every boarding pet owner to bring at (least) 1 roll of paper towels. Thank you for understanding!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs growing up from my own to friends, family and neighbors. I love spending time with animals and caring for them. I have a summer job part time but have time outside of that to walk your dog or drop in visit your cat. I have lots of free time to care for your pet. I make sure I don’t leave doors open and follow pet owners instructions thoroughly. My biggest priority is making sure your pet is comfortable and well fed.
About: I have taken care of my family and friends animals since I was 14, I am now 20 and have worked with Animak Enforcement for a year at the LCSO. I have also volunteered at many Animal Shelters! I’m currently available at any point in time, animals fit into my active routine as taking on walks and caring intensively is something to look forward with me! I cannot do boarding at my home due to mom and sister being allergic :( I plan on having an animals sanctuary when I move out!
About: Most people know me as “B.J.” Short for Betty Jean. I love animals. I have had dogs & cats all my life. I have a rescue lab mix & who is my world. Also our feral rescue kitty. Only the best for them. I will take care of your fur baby as if they are my own. I am currently working an office job Monday-Friday but getting ready to retire from a 29 year career. I can do drop-ins & walks on the weekends for now. Starting next year I can do this full time. I’m so excited! I will follow the individual instructions you give me to take care of your pet. I will treat them with all the love & snuggles they want. I can do walks & drop in visits.
About: My many years of owning pets and working at a veterinarian facility has given me many different experiences with pets. My love for pets would be shown in the love and care I would provide for each any every pet I take care of. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 guinea pig, and 1 bearded dragon, with each one getting equal love and care. I would provide your pet with the same love and care that I give my own pets. If you choose me as your sitter or walker, know that I have the years of experience and understanding of different pets and know that each pet has its own personality. I look forward to getting to know each of your pets. I am currently doing online classes right now to better my self. I have more time then I use to, to help others that may not have as much time as they would like to help with their pets. I am unable to watch any pets at my personal home because of one of my dogs doesn’t like other pets. But I would take care of someone else’s home like it was my own with my own animals. If a fence is available we would play outside. If not we would walk around the neighborhood.
About: Hi! My name is Lauren, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I worked as a veterinary technician for two years, where I gained hands-on experience handling pets safely, recognizing health concerns, and providing attentive care. I’ve also volunteered at a zoo, giving me experience with animals of many different species and temperaments. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a calm companion, or extra patience, I tailor my care to their individual needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and happy. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! As a realtor, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around pet care visits and walks. This flexibility means I can provide reliable care, midday visits, and consistent attention for your pets while you’re away. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and do my best to work around your pet’s specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a former veterinary technician with two years of clinical experience, I’m trained to safely handle animals, recognize signs of stress or illness, and respond calmly if a concern arises. My experience also includes volunteering at a zoo, where I worked with animals of many different species and temperaments, which helped strengthen my understanding of animal behavior and patience. I am comfortable with medications and recovery.
“Liz did a great job walking my 8 year old dog twice a day while I was out of town for work. She was very communicative, responded timely, and prompt, even with the early morning walk time. Both my dog and my 5 month old baby took very well to Liz’s wonderful and kind demeanor. I am so happy I found her on Rover.”

I have experience with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care.

I’m available Monday through Friday with flexible daytime and afternoon scheduling. If you have a specific time in mind, feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I know trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and make sure your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I treat every pet as if they were part of my family. I understand that every animal has unique needs, from energetic puppies to senior pets who require extra patience and specialized care. I have experience caring for elderly pets, including administering medications and following detailed care routines to keep them comfortable, healthy, and happy. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or a little extra attention, you can trust they'll receive compassionate, dependable care in a safe and loving environment. I offer pet care seven days a week and maintain a fairly flexible schedule to meet your needs. I spend my daytime hours caring for my young child and studying at home, which allows for plenty of attention and companionship. I have a very large fenced in yard that's perfect for getting those zoomies out! I do also have one other dog (a border collie named Nori). She is very friendly and would love to play with your fur baby during the day. We have plenty of toys to go around from frisbees, to tug-of-war, to balls, to squeakers, to chew toys. We don't really restrict off-furniture rules, so unless you want me to, your fur baby will be free to chill on the couch or our bed as if they were at home. I do ask that you do not bring your dog's toys. If you would like, you can bring a bed with you.
“Dennis took great care of Raven. He sent photos throughout her stay which was 5 nights and we could see she really enjoyed her time with him. We’d be happy to entrust Dennis with any of our pets any time. Thank you Dennis!”
