“Brenda was excellent with our 2 dogs. We just moved to the area from Indiana and have 2 rescue dogs that are very frightened. Brenda was kind and patient with them. She is great and timely with communication which decreased my anxiety as this was the first time we've left them with someone other than family. We will definitely use Brenda again.”
“Luke and Melody seemed to have had a great time. They were even freshly bathed when I picked them up. Jessica and her husband are really good with dogs and I won't hesitate to book another stay for my fur kids.”
“Daniel was recommended by my dog's sitter because she was unavailable at the time. Great recommendation! Me and my son both said to each other that we felt very comfortable leaving Dutchess in his care.”
“Raquel was great with our fur babies! She treated them as her own. Nothing but caring, loving and kind. Raquel was suppose accommodating, sent us pictures frequently and kept us updated daily. Will definitely be booking again.”
“Labern was so amazing! She took such great care of my doggie. I never once had to ask how Venus was doing, she sent me an update and photo every single day! I loved that so much! I hope she's available to watch her again because Labern has become my favorite Rover in all of Florida. Thank you so so much!”
“Our Aussie Doodle seemed to love being there. She played with their dog and she slept on the bed with their teen aged son. She took to these people like she had known them all her life. She even jumped up on the son's lap and our doodle just doesn't do that to people she doesn't know. I would definitely use this lady again to watch our dog.”

“Hello Rover,, I'm new to the area and just moved into my house a month ago. Needing a cat sitter, my daughter told me to look on Rover. When i first logged on to your site, I saw Jennie's kind smile and that she was close by. So I figured it would be a win win. Boy, did I get way more than I bargained for!! I don't even know where to begin to express my gratitude and appreciation for Jennie! First, I'd like to thank her for taking care of my cat under more than extreme circumstances! I never thought I could ever get such impeccable service. The story has a twist and becomes even more extraordinary. On my recent trip, on the third day I left the country. Something told me to message Jennie and let her know I could only receive messages from messenger. As I did, I asked if everything was OK. She responded "your cat is ok". This is what followed. Evidently some sort of "Super Cell" developed and decided to dump approximately 6 inches of rain in 45 minutes on my house! Jennie saw how bad the sky looked over my way and decided to make the trip over. What normally is a 5 minute ride turned into 20 due to the rain coming down so hard she couldn't see the road. Upon her arrival, the water was 6 to 8 inches above the threshold, so she didn't want to open the door. She left and came back later to find my downstairs flooded! The water had started to receed and little Miss Wonder Woman jumped into action and advised me step by step as I, near hysteria, hung on her every message, knowing I couldn't get back til Monday (this happened Friday evening !) She moved furniture and pulled out rugs as her daughter and cousin swept the water to the street. She secured my cat in the upstairs and did her best to calm her. Jennie went out and rented a rug cleaner and cleaned my large area rug ( just a cat sitter?! Whatever!!). She turned on fans and cleaned everything she could!! Not once did I ask her to do anything --- she just took care of everything. When I asked her why she did it, her response was, "That's how I was raised, you help people". At that moment I could have kissed her parents on the mouth! My cat is now healed from the trauma, still skittish, but that's to be expected. The house is getting back together, but it would have been a total loss without Jennie's help. Thank you Jennie for working so hard for 3 straight days and restoring my faith in humans , there's still good ones out there! ❤ Rover, you just don't know what you have! Sincerely, Donna Matteson”
“I am absolutely happy with Leah and how well she took care of my babies. She played with them ,fed them and spent time with them. You can see that they were happy when we came home. We are definitely going to use her again when we go on another trip!!”
About: Experienced, dependable, and trustworthy pet lover providing gentle, attentive care. Comfortable with puppies, seniors and shy pets. I focus on safety, routine, and giving each animal genuine affection. I have an open, adjustable schedule since I don’t work a typical 9–5. I’m active, at the gym daily, and can easily fit care around my daughter’s activities. I treat every pet like my own—safe walks, clean spaces, and consistent routines. In clients’ homes, I follow their rules, give lots of attention, and make sure pets always feel comfortable and secure.
About: I’m not going to sugar coat anything I’m no pet trainer, but I can most certainly be there when you need the help! Need your pets cared for while you’re away? Or your house? Give me a call! Currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care of your pets and or homes, I am available Monday to Sunday at anytime. I have been around animals (mainly dogs) my whole life. Animals just like people have emotions it’s just our job as a pet owner to know what they need, that’s what I’m here for.
“At the very last minute, our hotel—which had a pet-friendly policy—changed its rules to "dogs only." With just one day left before our vacation, we had no one to look after our one-year-old cat. After searching on the app, we found Damaris, and she agreed to take care of Zelda. Honestly, my husband and I are absolutely delighted with the service; she took excellent care of her, sent us photos, and kept us updated on everything. I know how strange it can feel to let a stranger into your home, but we had such a positive experience with her that we recommend her 100%.”
“Trish was great with my grumpy cat Pepe! She was dependable and communicated with me consistently, so I was less anxious leaving him for a few days. She tried really hard to make friends with him and was super patient and kind!”
About: I have such a love for animals especially dogs and cats I have taken care of cats since I was 12. And growing up I liked to help family members out with their cats and pets too. I of course would clean the cat litter, give them their food (mixing in wet food for a special treat or special diet). I make sure their food bowls or water bowls are clean so they do not get sick as well! And of course spend some time with them and play with them so they are not bored or feeling lonely.
About: My first cat was a kitten that was found behind a dumpster. Now I have a kitten that I rescued after a hurricane that would not even move. They have made my love for cats tremendously expand. I will take care your furry ones as I do mine. I will always update and reassure any anxious owners as well because I know how it feels to worry about your loved ones.

About: I have been caring for dogs for over 20 years. My commitment to dogs, no matter their age, comes from the fact that I love them and I love working with them. Older dogs require a different kind of care, a little calmer, more established routines, puppies are more active, patience and lots of activity. It is important to me the routine that the owner describes for their pet, following their instructions is very important. It is a commitment to take care of a pet, I work from home so I can adapt according to the needs of the pets I agree to take care of. Walks, running on my property (+ 1 Acre) 1 hour of indoor play or more if required. Our property is fenced, our routines are established by our pets, so all security is very important to us, they will be living inside the house with air conditioning and always under my supervision. The walks will be done on a leash and according to the needs of the animal, water is essential, as well as the hours of the same. The instructions of the parents are very important to me, they will always be followed.

“Raquel was so great with my pup! He tends to get anxious when at a new place and I could tell he felt comfortable. She sent me a picture of him wrapped up in a blanket and he was a happy pup upon my return. This is my first time leaving him outside of family, and I felt at ease with Raquel! :)”

About: Our family loves pets. My wife and I have had our experiences from birds to horses. We have always had a special place for our cats and dogs who went with us to care for other animals. We felt they were always great representations of what love and comfort we had to share with both our indoor and outdoor pets. When your family member needs to be watched over, give them that real rural experience. Both dogs and cats will have a great time observing animals on the ranch from a fenced in area. Better yet, we hope the surroundings have you wishing it were you staying instead of your beloved fur friend. I am private tutor/day trader that works from home. I have my set scheduled office hours that will not intervene with my daily pet care and weekly routines. I currently have 2 cats and senior dog residing in our home. We also have 200 chickens, hoping for 400 by 2023. Our facility is our home. Your pets are our family. We want nothing more to give them a good country experience within a safely fenced and gated environment. They will not be where live livestock are roaming freely, but they will get to walk along a fenced road where they can be seen. Pets also have a fenced in backyard that lets them observe the chicken pens. There they can entertain themselves with the hilarious antics from our poultry.
About: Ever since I was young I did not only taking a liking to all animals, as I found they too took a liking to me. Sometimes I could see pieces of myself in their souls. From then on I've been infatuated with helping them. That's become quite the task as I'm a mother now of 2. Having your own "pets" is just having a bigger family in my eyes. I've always been the friend that takes in pet guests so they can go out of town. Or house sit if necessary beings all the different types. I figured why not make a job of it!! Pet care is extremely important! I use this time daily even for snuggle time to make sure no one even our own furries are left out. It fits in just like breakfast. It's extremely important and can become very meditative. I treat guest pets with as much love and freedom as our own. I'm in a very wooded area and our pup never ventures too far and guides the other dogs around and plays with them to get them back in. He's very clever. However I would never let a guest be unleashed while unattended. While your away I like to take all opportunities to improve! Unleash time is a HUGE start and is always impressive. These simple tasks once mastered can save you pups life if ever left unattended unleashed in a new scary place. I intend to help even if it's for one day we can work on just having fun and playing inside and talking walks in the outdoors together! I am one for taking photos and sending them to let you know how much fun they are having, for you to have yours!

About: Hi, I’m David. As a lifelong animal lover, providing dedicated, high-quality pet care is very much second nature to me.

Independently I have gained work as a mobile pet groomer and have previously been employed at a Petco grooming salon. Because of my love for animals, I assure you any pets in my care will have a positive experience. Thank you in advance for reviewing my profile and I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 I am available anytime of the week to care for your pet/pets as I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to do walks, drop ins dog boarding and house sitting. I love making time to care for pets. I will provide exactly what your fur baby needs including any special requests and make sure they are happy and comfortable. I can provide daily walks if you would like that for your pet as well.
About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs. I’ve been through every stage of a pup’s life from energetic, curious puppies to the tender care senior dogs need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love it takes to keep dogs happy and healthy. Because of this, I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” Right now, I have plenty of free time which means I can give your pet my full attention.I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine from morning walks to playtime and cuddles throughout the day. Having the flexibility in my schedule allows me to keep pets on their normal routines and make sure they always feel cared for and comfortable. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them a calm space, regular walks, and plenty of playtime and affection just like I do with my own dogs. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel right at home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and rest. My goal is always to keep pets happy, loved, and stress free, whether they’re with me or staying in their own familiar environment.

About: I’ve taken care of pets pretty much all of my life! I love animals and I make sure they feel safe and are taken care of. I’ve taken care of puppies, kittens, and senior animals. For senior pets I would massage them a lot due to their arthritis and for the babies I would make sure they are getting their proper food and naps while also prioritizing play time so they can learn and not feel lonely! I’ve had pets with special diets (mixing certain wet food for treats or special dietary needs). I am big on spending time with animals because they have feelings as well and keeping them safe is a priority! I am currently a nursing student with a busy schedule but as long as we can communicate we can make a schedule together! I do usually have two days off which are Wednesday and Friday (I usually use those days to study and I can fit more time in with pet care these days). Some weeks the schedule may be different but I will always be open about what my schedule is looking like. In my home I have an Australian Cattle Dog blue heeler. He has a lot of energy and a sensitive tummy he is on a routine with his food and has a special diet. I make sure he has enough outside time and play time due to his high energy but also make sure he gets his time to calm down and rest. For pets I have I taken care of for others I would make sure they are fed and have water while also spending time with playing and lots of pets!

I will crate your pet if needed for their own safety.
About: Hi! We’re a sibling team who loves caring for pets and treating them like family. This account is now shared between us, but my sister Kathy will be the primary caregiver and will be handling most of the communication, bookings, and day-to-day services. We both have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From long walks and playtime to feeding routines and giving lots of attention, we understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. We’re comfortable following specific instructions to make sure your pet stays happy, safe, and on their normal routine while you’re away. My sister, who you’ll be mainly interacting with, is reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. She has hands-on experience with pet sitting, walking, and making sure pets feel comfortable in new situations. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, she’s got it covered. We know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, so we’re committed to clear communication, updates, and giving you peace of mind. I am a full time nursing student at the moment. I have quite a busy schedule but I am always free to give my time for dogs and cats because they bring me so much joy. I am mostly free on weekends but I do offer a full Thursday as well. For Monday’s, I have Zoom meetings every week from 4:30pm-6:45pm so if that’s something I can work on while being with your pets, it works out! I can offer to take your pets for walks, or simply play with them in the yard, or just lay around and cuddle with them if they are the more relaxed kinds. I am not offering boarding at the moment, so any services I am offering, it will be held at your place set by your rules!
About: Ever since I was young I did not only taking a liking to all animals, as I found they too took a liking to me. Sometimes I could see pieces of myself in their souls. From then on I've been infatuated with helping them. That's become quite the task as I'm a mother now of 2. Having your own "pets" is just having a bigger family in my eyes. I've always been the friend that takes in pet guests so they can go out of town. Or house sit if necessary beings all the different types. I figured why not make a job of it!! Pet care is extremely important! I use this time daily even for snuggle time to make sure no one even our own furries are left out. It fits in just like breakfast. It's extremely important and can become very meditative. I treat guest pets with as much love and freedom as our own. I'm in a very wooded area and our pup never ventures too far and guides the other dogs around and plays with them to get them back in. He's very clever. However I would never let a guest be unleashed while unattended. While your away I like to take all opportunities to improve! Unleash time is a HUGE start and is always impressive. These simple tasks once mastered can save you pups life if ever left unattended unleashed in a new scary place. I intend to help even if it's for one day we can work on just having fun and playing inside and talking walks in the outdoors together! I am one for taking photos and sending them to let you know how much fun they are having, for you to have yours!
About: I have worked in the vet clinic, in hospitals, grooming, and cared for multiple pets of my own from goldfish to cows. Your babies will be in the best care possible! **Si hablo espanol** I currently work from home and have free availability to accommodate any requests needed. I also will be staying home for the holidays to provide extra love and care to your fur babies. I have 3 babies myself that are so loving and playful. I treat all animals as they are my own with lots of love, scratches and yummy treats . I regularly walk and feed my dogs on a routine. Which if you are on a routine I will gladly follow to your liking. We go on long walks and have a big backyard for running and playing as we love playing fetch. I also do NOT walk pups without leashes for their safety and your peace of mind knowing they will be in the best care.
About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. There has almost never been a period of time when we did not have a pet. I was responsible for my pets since before middle school. As someone who gets worried easily for my loved ones and little companions, I will make sure to offer as many updates as needed and reassurance for any owners who may worry about their pets. I have a fully open schedule as of right now and will fully dedicate myself to pet care. I will do my best to work around pet owners’ schedules. They will be fed and taken care of as instructed by the owners. I will work with any requirements they have and make sure to communicate well.
About: I’ve owned pets my whole life! I currently have one cat who is like my child. I grew up caring for gerbils, dogs, Guinea pigs, rabbits and fish as well.

I have experience administering medication as well, my childhood cat was diabetic so I have lots of experience with injectable medication. I’m very flexible schedule wise! I currently work part time and set my own hours, but I mostly work evenings. I spend as much time with my pets as possible. I prefer afternoon bookings, but I can do nights as well. I currently can’t host in my own house due to animal restrictions! I’m available for drop-ins and house sitting. I’m a very clean person and always respect other peoples spaces. I’m very competent and have no issue following whatever instructions you give me regarding how you need your pet cared for.

“It was so nice to meet Dave. First time user of this sight and was put right at ease with how comforting Dave made my shih tzu feel at home in his home. Dave sent photos throughout the day which also helped me know he was being attentive and loving to my boy. I feel they made a bond that now I can work with and know my Cody will not only be comfortable...but happy beside his new friend Dave when I am not around. I will be calling on him again and would recommend him to anyone who is hesitant to use a "stranger" to watch their precious loved one. In moments, with the manner that Dave conducts himself, they will be fast friends.”
