“Sugar and Harley were taken great care of! We had an incident with Harley and they continued to accommodate and make sure both doggies were safe and had everything they needed. Definitely recommend.”
“Was wonderful with our puppy and even helped us out last minute. Overall a great experience and sent us lots of pictures. Will definitely use again when in the Orlando area!”
“Melissa always takes great care of our senior dog Zoey. She always sends me photos of her throughout our time away. It’s almost like she loves her just as much as we do! She’s great and I highly recommend her service!”
“I would recommend Susie to anyone in need of care for your animals. She is very reliable, trustworthy, and takes such good care of our dogs when we are out of town! The pups love going to her house!”
“What a relief to be on vacation and know that our sweet girl was well cared for. Lori and host dog, Mocha, were so sweet to our Shiba. We received frequent updates and photos and were able to relax knowing she was in great hands. Looking forward to our next visit to Lori!”
“Carl & Linda were amazing! They sent me pics of my pup and had really great communication. My pup was super happy when I picked him up. If I could give them 6 out of 5 stars, I would 🙂”
“Jonathan and his wife were great with my pup! They were very responsive, and I got some picture updates throughout the stay. They were also able to give my dog his meds, which isn’t always easy. One of their dogs and my dog were not best friends, but Jonathan and his wife made sure all the dogs were safe and had play time. 😊”
“He’s the best, grateful he’s been available to watch my pups when I travel. My dogs love their visits, which means the world to me. Also appreciate his flexibility for my chaotic schedule.”
About: Ive been a licensed RVT (aka.animal nurse) since 2013 when taking my National Boards. I've always been an animal loving, tree hugging, empathetic person so helping pet parents comes naturally. Since I'm extremely flexible, I'd love to help my community take care of their furry friends. My knowledge and experience helps in any stage of life, all those coming with its own set of bumps and turns. I spent many years in speciality care so I cant help but have a little softer spot for seniors and medically complicated. Whether petsitting, medication giving, rehabilitation help, basic training, paw holding, extra TLC or just potty breaks it'd be my pleasure to help. I've been lucky enough to take the last few years off to have my small children at home with me. Now that everyone is in full time school I have this open schedule. I miss taking care of littles, I miss animal interaction :) and I'm not quite able to go back to full time work so this is a no brainer. I want to use my skillset to help parents in any capacity small or large Whether an animal is at my home or I'm in their home my job is to make them feel as safe and loved just as their parent would. Structure and routine is so important to all creatures, so my goal is to keep things as normal as possible for them. Upon visiting my friends, I want each pet to feel like I’m only there to serve them :) while keeping things as normal as possible for the routine and schedule.
“From the very first meet and great we felt so comfortable with Jillian. Such a warm, comfortable environment. She has such a soothing presence. Dakota took right to her. We got wonderful updates and pictures all weekend. Highly recommend and we will absolutely be back.”
“Lori was phenomenal with Lola! Lola loved playing with her doodle dog and sunbathing in the back yard. Lori provided great updates and was flexible and amazing with drop off and pick up while I was racing in a local sailboat regatta. Lola cannot wait to go back!”
“A true blessing! I could not recommend a sitter more than Carie!!! The whole trip she sent so many photos and updates of all the fun Nugget had while I was away. Nugget isn't able to see well/ walk much, but Carie and her wonderful son put him in a bike trailer and stroller and let him go see so much. I think he had more fun than I did! A++, If you are looking for someone to watch your baby pet then 100% get Carie.”
“We were happy to find Jolene as it was nice to know that our dog would have some cat and dog company whilst we were away. As an older boy traditional dog boarding wears him out. He just wants to nap in peace with a like minded companion. Upon meeting Jolene I felt confident that Sampson would be comfortable and well looked after. We enjoyed the photo updates provided during our absence. I believe Sammy dog enjoyed his time. Thank you. Jolene. It was lovely to meet you.”
“We needed some boarding for our 2 golden-doodles for a couple of nights while we were visiting the Coca Beach/Cape Canaveral/Merritt Island area. Mia had availability and checked all the boxes for us...worked from home, fenced back yard, and 2 of her own pups for playtime with our own. Mia was very flexiable and provided a safe, loving environment for Cooper and Murphy! Thank you very much Mia! As well to ROVER.COM. My wife and I have used this service several times when we travel for vacations or short trips and have had great positive experiences! Highly recommend Mia and Rover.com”
“Patsy was so wonderful! Our shy little boy instantly felt comfortable with her and in her home. She sent regular updates and photos and is a total joy to work with! Happy to have found a trusted sitter for our furbaby! Thank you Patsy!”

“Erica was the perfect fit to watch my kitties while we were away. She sent so many pictures and I could tell they were having so much fun. I’m very grateful for her being so wonderful with them and easy to communicate with!”
“Katie is the best. It is so awesome to be able to go away knowing that your fur babies are well taken care of. I cannot say enough good things about her level of care. Skip the rest and go with the best!!”
“I don't think I would ever find a more caring person to take care of my pets while I am away from home She is truly concerned about their comfort and every need She does as she is asked and goes beyond what is needed I will always use her if she is available when I need any further care of my furry babies And they seem to be comfortable with her coming to see them”
“Ashley was timely, followed all instructions, and did a great job taking care of our babies. We didn’t have to worry at all. She sent photos and detailed updates too. We would recommend her!”
“Crystal did an awesome job caring for our furbabies and our house. She made sure they were cared for and loved. Cats make a mess and Crystal left the house so clean. She is dependable and went above and beyond to care for our cats and bunny.”

Feel free to message me with your location before booking if you’re unsure whether you’re within my service area! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my schedule.

I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to keep them on their normal routine while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep fresh water available, make sure they’re fed on schedule, provide exercise and playtime appropriate for their energy level, and give them lots of love and attention. I’ll also keep your home clean, respect your space, and send regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Andrea was amazing. She's a great communicator. She loved our cat as we do and cared for his idiosyncrasies. We are so happy we found her and will use her again.”
About: Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I always had a cat companion—or two—and I was often the child bringing home another cat in need. Luckily, my uncle was a veterinarian! That behavior continued into adulthood. Over the years, I’ve welcomed and cared for several lonely cats looking for love, care and companionship. I was incredibly lucky to mother Maia, my first cat as an adult, and then my soul sister LadyBug. Each lived a long, full, love-filled life. Caring for them through their senior years gave me hands-on experience with medications, special diets, changing needs, and the extra patience and tenderness older cats deserve. After my sweet LadyBug crossed the rainbow bridge in 2022 at age 17, I was heartbroken and deeply missing her—and cat energy in general. I began volunteering with HOPE for Brevard Cat Rescue in Eau Gallie. My hands-on involvement there has broadened my cat-care experience tremendously. The many different purr-sonalities I’ve met have taught me to pay close attention to expressions, body language and other cues, and to meet each cat exactly where they are—whether they want playtime, cuddles, quiet companionship or a respectful human who understands that today may be a “please admire me from across the room” kind of day. And, of course, that’s also how Harpurr and Fraya eventually became part of my family!
“Nova took great care of our cat. She sent good updates each day with photos, followed all instructions we left, and kept the place clean - and most importantly, made sure our little guy was happy and healthy! Will definitely book her again.”
“Faced with a long, tough road trip on very short notice, i contacted Catsitter Hollingsworth who did a magnificent job taking care of the cat. All instructions were followed to the letter.”
“Katie is AWESOME. Every single time I've used her she is not only phenomenal, my dog loves her, and I am able to truly relax and know everything is being handled above and beyond. She is very communicative, reliable, and helpful. Would absolutely recommend.”

About: Hi! We’re a husband-and-wife team who have been caring for pets for most of our lives. Between the two of us, we’ve had hands-on experience with dogs in every stage of life—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra care. We truly enjoy hosting pets and making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their families are away. We pay close attention to routines, personalities, and comfort levels so each pet gets the care that fits them, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Our home includes a fully fenced backyard with artificial turf, which means plenty of space for running, playing, and fresh air—without the mud and mess. Whether your pet loves active playtime or prefers lounging and quiet companionship, we’re happy to match their energy. We treat every pet like part of the family and understand how important trust and peace of mind are when you’re away. We’d love to care for your pet as if they were our own. Our schedules give us a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care. One of us works days and the other works nights, which means there is often someone home or available to check in throughout the day. This allows us to accommodate a variety of needs, including frequent potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and medications. We’re happy to work with your pet’s routine and adjust as needed to help them feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. We promise to follow your safety preferences, using a leash when needed, securing doors and taking extra precaution at all times. Your pets safety will always be a top priority for us

“Today was Luca's first day with Nytza and her family. He was very calm when I picked him up and fell asleep as soon as we came home so, I will assume that he had a very active and happy day. I was extremely appreciative for the pictures and video that were sent. Luca will be boarding with Nytza and her family later this week so today was mainly a trial run to ensure that he played well with their dog and small children. The communication throughout this process was great. It's comforting to know that Luca had a good day but even more comforting to know that you and your family liked having him. I am sure that he will have a great time with you guys while we are away.”
“We came to the area on vacation and needed a sitter for one of the days. When we arrived, we realized our pup wasn’t excited about hiking and Christine was able to take him for two days last minute. Christine, her husband and and their pup are awesome and I’d absolutely recommend booking with them!! Manny was so excited to be back for a second day and slept the rest of the evening when we picked him up ? We will definitely book them again if they’re available next time we’re in town.”
“Mandy was so good with our puppy! She sent videos during his stay with her and made me feel even better about leaving him with her. Seems like he had a great time playing! Mandy was extremely kind and professional. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“This was puppy Mango’s first outing with a sitter and we couldn’t be more pleased with Christie’s level of care, love and attention. Mango, at 4 mos, Is def a hand full and we’re si glad to have chose.Christie (and she us) for his first pet care experience. Will def be using Christie again - she is wonderful!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals from cats to dogs to fish and turtles since I was young. I love animals and can’t wait to ease your travel or emergency worries while you are away. I work from home and will follow your schedule to the best of my ability, so your pet will be looked after during the day! I work from home so I am available all day everyday typically. It’s so fun to learn each pets quirks and personalities. Pet care helps me get out and get my steps in. House (Day) Sitting: Since I have a fur baby and family of my own, I generally provide early morning-late evening services following your schedule. Of course, if your pet needs special attention, this can be accommodated for overnight care. Please disclose all indoor cameras. Boarding: For their safety and little piece of home, please bring your baby’s kennel/cage/carrier and something that smells like you along with food and water bowls.
“Cessna was excited when she met Paul, and he took her for a walk as soon as I dropped her off. I really liked that. Paul sent me lots of pictures of her throughout the day, and I felt good knowing she was safe and comfortable while I was away. I also loved that she was the only dog in his care.”
About: I am a retired CVT with over 25 years of experience in small animals, emergency medicine, and teaching future veterinary technician students. I retired 5 years ago and began traveling. Both myself and my husband have been pet sitting full time all over the country. We are home in Florida for an extended amount of time and wanted to expand our services locally. I am comfortable giving medications. It is important to us to maintain a consistent stress-free experience for both the pet owner as well as your family member. I am retired so my schedule is open. I do provide pet sitting via another site so I tend to book up quickly from there. I prefer when pet sitting in clients homes that they provide me with their expectations. For cats I do prefer inside cats only because I don’t want to be responsible if your indoor/outdoor cat doesn’t come home.
“Another 5 star rating! Dominique was awesome. We did a very thorough meet and greet the night before service and my fur babies knew immediately they would be comfortable with her. I can tell because they pick their humans carefully. On the day she cared for them, they received lots of walks and I got many pictures which put my mind at ease. She asked about their needs and I especially like the fact that she only cares for one fur family at a time. As a bonus, she is very close to me. I will definitely be a repeat customer and I cannot recommend highly enough!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 3 years now. I’ve done a wide variety of jobs. I have worked on a long term schedule, stayed overnight, and handled last minute care situations. Every single time I have met both the fur baby and owner with care, compassion, and trust. I have always loved caring for pets and love to tune in with each of their personalities! From hyperactive pups to our elderly babies who just want to watch tv together. It’s amazing to bring out the personality in each one and give them the opportunity to be in charge! If they want to walk, we walk, if they want to play, we play, if they want to chill all day, we chill! I can ensure that while you’re out, your pet will be taken care of and loved so you can remain stress free. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to work with you and your pet. I love getting out of the house and would love to spend the day with your fur buddy! I currently have one large dog and one cat in my home. I plan to only work within the clients home. I believe it’s best to keep pets in their safe space so they can remain stress free while you remain stress free as well. I’m accustomed to house sitting, house care, and staying overnight if needed. I can assure you that I will abide by the campsite rule and always leave things better than how I found them!
About: Hi my name is Mariah. I have always loved animals! I am full time in college to become a Veterinarian. I have my own pug and him being spoiled is an understatement. I also have a cat as well. He is just as spoiled. I am very flexible with times and areas. I work in Merritt Island, which is where I normally am but I live in Cocoa and can service anywhere in between. (Titusville, Port St. John, Cocoa, rockledge, Viera, depending on my location) Book me if you want someone to love your babies🤍 Pet care fits into my schedule because I have a lot of flexibility in between work and my college classes. Working around my schedule for your animals will make me happy. My pup runs the house and the cat is the head captain in charge. I take my pup all over and love to have his company. Mine are not in crates but if you need me to crate your babies just let me know.
“Brook was an amazing dog walker, making my dog comfortable even when she can be a little defensive. They kept me updated in detail and was a great friend to my dog. I will definitely be using them again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and I love them! Currently,I have two small/medium doggies (both rescues) and we love to cuddle on the couch, go on walks and play in the yard. I would love to include your dog in our daily activities. My dogs are well socialized and love to play. My dogs are not currently crated in the house while I'm at work (I work from home often and if I need to leave, im not gone for long periods normally). Because of separation anxiety, I would request that any visiting dogs be crated while I'm out of the home, for their comfort and mine. Your dog will receive a minimum of one walk a day (in the morning or the evening) depending on the temperatures. I sit out on the back porch most evenings and the dogs love to run and play together in the back yard (fully fenced). I am often working from home (which means lots of trips to the backyard!) and both my husband and I are off on the weekends, so crate time is a minimum. When someone is home, dogs are left to roam freely in the home, including at night. Our pups sleep on their own beds or ours (depending on their mood) in our bedroom and yours would join the pack, if comfortable. If you would like me to come to your house, I can drop in as necessary. I would take your pup(s) on walks, if desired and temperatures are safe. I will feed and play with your pup(s) for the desired amount of time and give lots of belly scratches and loves. I can give oral medications or injections. All dogs would have outside time in the a.m. and p.m. as well as multiple times during the day. I am home often during the day, so not much crate time necessary and lots of backyard time. We have a fenced yard and our dogs love being outside. When temperatures allow, we spend alot of time outside and the door is left open for easy access back and forth.
“Patty loves her walks. Jennifer stays aware of the heat. Patty is black pit and gets very hot certain times of the day, her needs don't always correspond at the optimum time. Jennifer stayed aware and made sure Patty didn't overheat. We have used Jennifer several times. Reliable and we highly recommend Jennifer.”

About: Long hours at work? Busy schedule could use a break? Allow us to provide regular daily walks to help keep your best friend healthy and happy. 😊 PRO TIP 1: Praise works wonders! Praising desired behavior works better than discouraging unwanted ones PRO TIP 2: Use treats, especially in the beginning, to warm a dog up to a new routine or command. PRO TIP 3: Being the ‘Alpha dog’ can be as simple as always stepping through a doorway first, and not allowing yourself to be jumped on. Dogs thrive with good boundaries!😊 Call or text now to schedule a Meet & Greet! 🐾 Thank you. 🙏 Friendly experienced pet caregiver to provide regular daily walks, or shorter term drop-in visits, while you’re away. Insured and Bonded Space Coast areas SHPC (2009) Thank You My last 6 dogs have gone through at least basic training, 3 have also enjoyed Agility. My Ocoee is an AKC STAR Puppy. I began learning how to professionally handle and train dogs in 2002 at a facility called CT-K9, which also houses the Hartford city animal shelter. In an environment like that one, a tough city ‘dog pound’, you have to be strong and you have to be fast and you have to have a big heart. So of course I did great! Haha joking…it was the toughest work I’ve EVER done, and also some of the most rewarding. I met some amazing people and I of course adopted a best friend from the shelter and enjoyed 10 wonderful years of hiking and camping with her in Connecticut, where I am from originally. Working in the Humane Society shelter office further developed my animal handling and medication-administration skills, and my knowledge of county laws relating to dogs/cats, heart worm and flea/tick meds, and so much more. 3 beautiful Siberian Huskies allow me to live in their home🐾😊 I’ve found the best way to ‘walk’ them is to harness their sled-pulling instincts and have them run on a bike ride with me. 🐕🚴 Open 7 days a week, 6 am- 9 pm. for pet drop-in visits and dog walking. Once daily as well as twice / thrice daily. Multiple Pets Welcome!!😁 I carry professional kennel grade loop leashes for maximum safety on a walk, follow positive dog training ethics, and stay in touch with you via m no text and photos as much as you would like😊
About: I’m a recent empty nester who grew up with a black Lab, a Collie mix, and a mutt. My favorite Siamese cat, Tiger, lived to 23. I have undergraduate degrees in biology and psychology from Seattle Pacific University and a masters in pharmacology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. My love of food science compels me to experiment with new recipes. My most recent forays involve bread-baking and candy making, so I offer these homemade goodies as an add-on service. Imagine coming home to contented pets, a clean kitchen and fresh baked sourdough bread. For house-sitting stays of 3+ nights you can opt in for a batch of sea salt caramels, with or without the Kentucky bourbon. • I am a ghost writer with flexible, remote hours. Having animals to tend gets me up from the computer at regular intervals. As a recent empty nester, I am available for multiple daily drop-in visits within my service area. • I grew up marveling at how animals interact with their environments in sensible ways. Like humans, they need to feel secure in order to follow commands consistently, let alone perform tricks.
About: Hi ☀️ I’m a graduate from University of Lynchburg & Liberty University in VA and have recent moved to Merritt Island. I very much enjoy playing and hanging out with all types of animals; whether it be playing & helping to get some of their fun energy out or just giving them some company throughout the day :) I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up but and am now a dog mom to my own puppy, a Belgian Malinois named Louise (my princess). I was first introduced to Rover by a college roommate and realized it would be an amazing way to help others with their fluffy friends while also making some extra money while I go through a few more years of school. And have since continued Rover as I love meeting new pups and exploring the new places to walk and play! I am more available during afternoon/nights as well as all day during weekends. My schedule varies from a early morning-early afternoon day to a late morning-night day Monday through Friday but I would absolutely keep you in the loop on my schedule and the times I am available to help you out :) I am not able to care for pets inside my own home; however, whether it is an overnight stay, drop in visit, or a nice walk I will try my bestest to take care of your pet in the same exact manner you do so that way a new face for them can still be a friendly one :)
About: I have three girls that would love to give your dog some love and attention on the weekend We would treat your fur baby with love and compassion I currently only work part time and my three kids are in school all day so I have plenty of time during the day to play with your fur baby. I have a fenced yard and one energetic, playful dog who would love a play date. We like to take walks around the neighborhood and sometimes go to the local dog park.

“Was wonderful with our puppy and even helped us out last minute. Overall a great experience and sent us lots of pictures. Will definitely use again when in the Orlando area!”
“Melissa always takes great care of our senior dog Zoey. She always sends me photos of her throughout our time away. It’s almost like she loves her just as much as we do! She’s great and I highly recommend her service!”
“What a relief to be on vacation and know that our sweet girl was well cared for. Lori and host dog, Mocha, were so sweet to our Shiba. We received frequent updates and photos and were able to relax knowing she was in great hands. Looking forward to our next visit to Lori!”
“Jonathan and his wife were great with my pup! They were very responsive, and I got some picture updates throughout the stay. They were also able to give my dog his meds, which isn’t always easy. One of their dogs and my dog were not best friends, but Jonathan and his wife made sure all the dogs were safe and had play time. 😊”
“He’s the best, grateful he’s been available to watch my pups when I travel. My dogs love their visits, which means the world to me. Also appreciate his flexibility for my chaotic schedule.”
“Lori was phenomenal with Lola! Lola loved playing with her doodle dog and sunbathing in the back yard. Lori provided great updates and was flexible and amazing with drop off and pick up while I was racing in a local sailboat regatta. Lola cannot wait to go back!”
“We were happy to find Jolene as it was nice to know that our dog would have some cat and dog company whilst we were away. As an older boy traditional dog boarding wears him out. He just wants to nap in peace with a like minded companion. Upon meeting Jolene I felt confident that Sampson would be comfortable and well looked after. We enjoyed the photo updates provided during our absence. I believe Sammy dog enjoyed his time. Thank you. Jolene. It was lovely to meet you.”
“We needed some boarding for our 2 golden-doodles for a couple of nights while we were visiting the Coca Beach/Cape Canaveral/Merritt Island area. Mia had availability and checked all the boxes for us...worked from home, fenced back yard, and 2 of her own pups for playtime with our own. Mia was very flexiable and provided a safe, loving environment for Cooper and Murphy! Thank you very much Mia! As well to ROVER.COM. My wife and I have used this service several times when we travel for vacations or short trips and have had great positive experiences! Highly recommend Mia and Rover.com”
“Amazing amazing amazing!!! We will be re booking everytime with Carla! My dog had the best time and enjoyed every second of his visit! I am so thankful to find a loving and kind family to watch our boy!”
“Mark was great with our dog. He made Bentley feel right at home. Mark was great with communication and flexible with timing of drop off and pick up. Will definitely use him again.”
“Best first experience with Rover! Amanda was incredible with our girl Aurora and I could tell from the updates that she was having a fantastic time staying with Amanda and her sweet family. She was so well cared for and it put my heart at ease to know we could get away for a cruise and know Aurora was in good hands. I happily recommend Amanda for anyone looking for a fantastic dog sitter! We'd love to have her sit for us again on our next trip!”
“Olivia kept our pup happy and calmed/relieved his anxiety of us being away! She was communicative and flexible as our timing shifted. It’s nice to know that she shares a fondness for our dog even with his messy drool and quirky personality!”
“Priya is an amazing sitter and took excellent care of my Pug! She is kind and professional, and made sure Matias was comfortable right from the start. The communication was great and she kept me updated throughout the stay. Highly recommend bringing any pet to Priya and I look forward to seeing her again! Thanks!!”
