“Mara and Marco were amazing with my little princess. Cali is 13 and a half and has arthritis, which makes mornings tough with some pain and difficulty walking. They sent me a video of her swimming in the pool and having a good time. I could tell she was happy and well cared for, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation with my daughter. Thank you Mara and Marco.”
“I appreciated the time Ana was able to take care of my Bandit. I loved the pictures you sent me, he knows your name. I pray he didn’t give you any trouble. I hope when I need you again I will call you soon. Thank you so much Bernice Bridges”
“Priscilla was absolutely amazing with our lexy she sent videos of her everyday which I loved and she looked very happy with Priscilla. Thank you so much I will be using her from now on. Thank you sooooo much for taking such great care of her.”
“Miss Tisha took great care of Fozzie. I dropped him off every morning & picked him up in the evening, Sunday to Tuesday. We were on vacation in FL & didn’t want to take him to a commercial broading chain. He was pulling me to her front door; happy to go there and hang with Lili, Tisha's fur-baby. We will use Tisha the next time we are in FL.”
“Bobo was a happy camper when he came home. Unfortunately I couldn’t Bobo pick up at the scheduled time. Lucky us Rebecca worked with us very well to get the situation solved. Looking forward to book with her again.”
“The best babysitter in Orlando hands down ! Gave me updates every time and gave me peace of mind while on vacation. So many photos and great with me changing times very often do to unexpected vacation I was on. One thousand percent I’ll be booking again in the next couple months. The best again like I said in Orlando with so much experience and understanding thank you”
“Linda was amazing with our pup. Great communication with us on how she was doing. She loved her and spoiled her all week. Macie was very happy there. We would highly recommend!!”
“Venessa was great to work with! Very communicative & quick to respond. She sent videos & Bentley came home the next day very tired, after playing with her pup all day. Will definitely rebook with her!”
“I just want to take a moment to express my appreciation for Jennifer! She was incredibly patient and understanding with my shy doodle, Lilly. Her efforts truly went above and beyond to ensure Lilly felt comfortable. It really showed in the wonderful pictures she shared in her updates. I'm so grateful for her dedication and care!”
“Lily was well taken care of and was able to make herself right at home. I received a picture daily, wish it was at least twice but it’s ok. I would book again”
“My golden retriever loved staying with Connor for the weekend. He took great care of her & kept me updated with pictures. I will definitely book with him again!”
“Wonderful! They took care of our Border Collie, Maya, and our French Bulldog, Lebron, for over 10 days — two dogs with very different personalities that require specific attention. They kept me updated and I felt safe with them. Alexander really understands pets, and I could tell our dogs were well cared for and happy. I highly recommend them!”
“Christina is amazing. I trusted her to watch my Maeven from the moment I met her. She is super communicative and replies almost instantly. Her schedule is very flexible as well. She sent me pictures every day, updated me of any valuable information and kept Maeven super active as needed. Maeven is skittish of people but she immediately fell in liking of Christina which was amazing. I 100% recommend Christina and I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Natali and Anton were more than accommodating and were super sweet to my little fur babies! They were responsive, friendly and most importantly, super loving to my pups. Highly recommend!”
“Jasmine is exactly what every loving dog owner is looking for in a pet sitter. Booking with her was simple and fast. She ensured that my dog had flea prevention to protect her home and the other dogs she cares for. When I took Sylvester to her home, she and her dogs gave us a warm welcome. She allowed me into her home so that I could see where Sylvester would be staying for the next couple days. Jasmine sent pictures of Sylvester every day with an update of how things were going. She sent me a picture of Sylvester lying on his back and exposing his entire belly as he slept, which let me know that he felt very safe and comfortable with her. Whenever I needed to reach Jasmine, she always responded quickly and kindly. I am so pleased with Jasmine’s service that I’m about to schedule another booking with her ASAP! Thank you, Jasmine, for such an amazing experience!”

“Noelle did a great job of caring for our kitty boys. We really appreciated the daily pictures and coming home to happy cats. Not only were they fed and litter box cleaned, but she spent time with them, giving them some play time and affection. Would definitely book her again.”
“Diane did drop-in visits for our pets Kiba, Nigel and Maryanne this past weekend and did an absolutely phenomenal job. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly attentive to their individual needs every time she came by. It's not always easy to leave your pets at home, but Diane made the whole experience stress-free from start to finish. We came back to two happy, healthy, well-looked-after pets — which says everything. If you're looking for a pet sitter who genuinely cares and takes the job seriously, look no further. Highly recommend!”
About: I am 22, I adopted my kitty boys Momo and Haru when I had just turned 18. I feel like we have lived 9 lives already together but one thing I take honor in is that no matter how difficult things got I showed up for my kitty’s. It was a no question doubt in my mind that we’re family now and I’ll do anything to make sure we’re all safe and happy ! We’re in a good spot now and I’m so happy we’ve made it through together ! I also have fostered 2 kitty girls over the past 3 years and found them loving homes ! It’s very rewarding and magical with their pure love.
“Kayla took great care of our cat snowflake. Kayla did check-ins in the morning while we were on vacation, and it warmed my heart to see how happy she was in the pictures and videos. Kayla's check in notes were detailed and comprehensive, and we'll definitely try to book her again the next time we're out of town.”
“We always book with Brandi when we go on vacation. We trust her with our 8 year old cat and our new kitten + we are comfortable with her in our home. She always has best practices for our girls and they love her. Our 8 year old calico has a VERY short list of people she likes, and she loves Brandi.”
“Karen is absolutely amazing! She shows a genuine love and care for your pets just like they were her own! With that being said, I trust her with anything we need! I will continue to use Karen as long as she continues to be a pet sitter!”
“Sharyn was a pleasure to work with. She was punctual, reliable, and thoughtful in her care and communication. She did more than was required to ensure my pets had the best experience possible. I will, without hesitation, reach out to her for my future pet-sitting needs.”
“My cats easily get along with her. Communicates well and sends photos & videos of my cats while I’m away. I will definitely book her again on my next out of town trips.”
“Great experience! She took good care of my cats, was reliable, and communicated well throughout the stay. I appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. Thank you!”
“Skye was great! Very reliable and communicative. She gave us great detailed updates every day including pictures. Our trip was so much more pleasant knowing that our babies were well cared for. Thanks to Skye for giving us peace of mind.”
“Highly recommend Jaya & will be reaching out to her again for future bookings! From great communication prior to the pet sitting to delightful updates throughout Jaya’s love & genuine care for pets shows & makes it feel so much easier to entrust beloved pets to her care when away!”
“My cat was well cared for and happy when we got home from vacation. Alicia communicated with me and sent a lot of pictures of my cat while I was away. I would recommend Alicia with caring for my pet in my home again.”
“So happy I came across Yelena on Rover! What a gem!! 💎 She was so good with my little Sophie. Normally, Sophie is a scary cat and tends to hide, but Yelena worked her magic and got Sophie’s buy-in immediately. So happy to see how much she cared for her, provided me a lot of comfort especially being out of the country. Thank you so much Yelena!!”
About: I may only have two years of hands-on experience with cats, but those years have shown me just how deeply I connect with their gentle, unique souls. I genuinely love caring for them—whether it’s the quiet company of a shy cat or the playful antics of a curious one. I might not have decades behind me, but my heart is fully in it, and I’m always eager to learn more from every cat I meet.
About: I’ve had cats since I was 7, my girl Luna had 8 kittens so I’m very experienced with the young and the older! I have a cat at the moment and she’s so silly, I let her go out into the backyard once I a while and she has the best time.

“Ana was so great! We came here on vacation, and had trouble finding pet sitters since we didn’t plan on bringing our dog. Ana accepted our booking even though it was so last minute, which helped us enjoy our vacation without having to worry too much. Our dog doesn’t do great with new people, so we were a bit worried about how he would do. However, Ana helped him feel right at home, and he was so amazing there! We would definitely book her again every time we’re back here for vacation!”
“We were so happy to find Priscilla. While we live in another part of Florida, we needed to board our pup while in the area where we were visiting with family and spending Thanksgiving Day at their house. My son's dog doesn't get along with ours, so it was wonderful to find someone who could care for him during our visit. Priscilla was so good with him and she sent us photos and a video of him running in her yard with the other dogs. He looked so happy to have this play time. We will definitely consider boarding him with Priscilla the next time we plan a visit to our kids.”
“Daisy recently had a very bad experience at a local franchised daycare. I wanted to find a more loving environment and smaller play group for her. I am so relieved to have found Rebecca. She is sweet, gentle, and made sure Daisy settled comfortably into a new space with her new friends. She updated me during the visit, and I'm confident Daisy will love days with Rebecca.”
“No tengo palabras para agradecer a Carilyn lo amable que fue con nosotros y Santin. Es la primera vez que contesto un servicio de este tipo para cuidar a lo más preciado que tengo, mi hijo perruno. Gracias por el cuidado y amor brindados. Santin salió feliz de allí. No solo lo recomiendo si no que les aseguro que sus peluditos no van a estar mejor en otro lugar que no sea este. Gracias gracias gracias!!!”
“Like always a great experience with Marco and Mara. They offer a great, clean, safe and beautiful ambiance for my baby with lots of love. My baby always wants to stay longer.”
About: My lifelong passion for dogs recently led me to become a Certified Professional Dog Trainer! For over 9 years, I've had the joy of caring for all kinds of pups - from energetic puppies to sweet seniors and dogs with special needs. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, so they've always been a huge part of our lives. We don't just watch your pet, we welcome them into our home as one of our own. Because we both work from home, we get to spend all day playing, cuddling, and making sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved. Your pet gets our full attention, always. My husband and I both work from home, which means your furry family member will have constant companionship throughout the day. To ensure the most personal and stress-free experience, we only board dogs from one family at a time. This allows us to completely tailor our schedule to your dog's needs, providing unlimited walks, dedicated playtime, and all the cuddles they could wish for. Their routine becomes our routine, ensuring they feel secure, loved, and right at home. For us, dog sitting isn't a business, it's our way of getting to have a dog in our lives. We want your dog to feel like they're on vacation in a second home, not at a boarding facility. We want you to be able to relax on your trip, knowing your dog is safe and having a blast! I'm a Certified Professional Dog Trainer and also CPR certified, so I'm prepared for anything. Our home is set up for maximum doggy fun and safety, with a big fenced-in yard for them to zoom around in. I use my trainer-brain to read doggy body language and make sure everyone is happy and getting along.
“Thank you for everything you did and your help for us out of town out of state! Max had a great time and if and when we come back down I’ll reach out again, very welcoming and knowledgeable with the area and flexible with our unexpected issues (losing a phone) she is someone you can trust with your care! Love love the card and pictures ❤️”
“Feliksa was very good with communication and ready when we arrived. Our dog can be a bit finicky with new people, however he took to her like an old friend. We will use you again any time the need arrises.”
“Our First time using Rover . Did a meet and greet with Sharon and her cute little dog Velvet Our Babies immediately took to both of them . Sharon made them and us feel very comfortable. While watching them over memorial day weekend she sent several pictures and videos. Even let them sleep with her, they were on a true vacation there!!!! I highly recommend Sharon for taking care of your furbabies as she will treat them as if they were her own. Thank you Sharon:)”

“Kayla is super patient with my big baby. I appreciated the extra effort Kalya went through to help support my pup during their walk visits. I will keep Kayla in rotation as needed for us.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic experience with Sharyn! My 60 lb hound mix, Saint, can be stubborn and has IBS, so I’m always nervous leaving her with someone new—especially after a few not-so-great Rover experiences in the past. Sharyn completely put my mind at ease! I loved getting photos, a completed Rover Card after every walk, and even the exact route they walked. It was so reassuring knowing Saint was being well cared for. Thank you, Sharyn, for taking such great care of my girl! We will definitely be using you again! 🐾”
“Danielle did great with taking care of my two dogs and cat while we were away. She went above and beyond with her communication, sending pics and taking her time walking and feeding the pets. She even helped clean up with one of my dogs who had a poopy situation which was not at all expected, I felt bad my dog got runs while I was away. But she helped give him sweet potato so he felt better and even bought peewee pads, which just kept my mind at ease knowing my dog was being cared for. I would definitely rehire her again, she was just the best!”
“Ian was a great help with my Jojo!!! He was a fast communicator and very punctual. I felt very comfortable leaving Jojo in his care. He sent great photos!!! Jojo looks forward seeing Ian again next week!!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, including Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Cane Corsos, and many others. My love for animals goes far beyond simply caring for them—they truly become family. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. If you choose me as your pet sitter, you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member will be treated with patience, compassion, and plenty of love every step of the way Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I currently work part-time, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., which allows me plenty of time each day to provide attentive care before and after work. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’m available to give them the love and attention they deserve. On the weekends, I’m completely off, giving me even more flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and spend quality time with them. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. In my client’s home, I strive to keep your pet on their normal schedule by providing fresh food and water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed and with instructions), and plenty of affection. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while I’m there. To give you peace of mind, I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to their individual needs.
About: Animal lover, pet-less at the moment, but with lots of animals in my life. I have plenty of love, patience, cuddles, and care to give to your furry family member, big or small. I know how important and stressful finding a reliable place or a trustworthy person is. For over 20 years now neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to take care of their beloved pets at their house or mine. I have a very welcoming home with couches to surf, plenty of laps to sit on, lots of treats(or not), walks and playtime. My backyard is enclosed and the community has lots of green areas, several parks, fun walks and a dog park just a car ride away. I don’t mind traveling. I have taken care of two potbelly pigs, two donkeys, a squirrel, and two cats up in Archer, FL. Five cats and an African Gray parrot in Orlando. Several cats and dogs at their homes and mine, and whenever I can, I escape to my friend’s farm to help with the care of their horses. My grand-dog, April, loves to visit and get spoiled! Give me the opportunity to show you how well and at home your baby will feel! I work part-time from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding 7 days a week. I set up beds in the living room and in my office. I also do pottery, and I have my wheel in an enclosed patio with a rug right next to it for my special helpers! I do a walk in the morning and another one about an hour after breakfast followed by some playtime. Then I do bathroom breaks every two hours or as needed. After noon, I work on my pottery and do some gardening in my fenced backyard. Rest assured your pet will never be outside unsupervised. Late afternoon I take them for a longer walk, a bathroom break after dinner, and again before bed. I make sure your baby is active and well exercised, with plenty of time for play, rest, and cuddles! And of course, I will also follow any schedule or routine they may have. I have a pet friendly home with an enclosed patio and fenced backyard, but rest assured your pup will never be left outside unsupervised. Your pet is welcomed on our couches, our laps, and any part of the house they wish to be in. If I have to go out, and no one else is home, I will leave the TV on with relaxing music or pet friendly content playing. I don’t own a crate, but you’re welcome to bring one if your baby is used to staying or sleeping in one. They are welcome to sleep in any of our bedrooms. I usually don’t allow them on my bed but my daughter will be ever so happy to oblige! If I’m caring for your beloved at your home, I will follow any rules you have set up for them, even sleeping with them if necessary!

What's Included: • Daily structured training sessions covering your specific goals. • Intensive behavior modification and management (separation anxiety, house rules, manners). • Daily video progress reports and a comprehensive hand-off workshop. 💎 Every immersive stay is completely tailored to your behavior goals and includes a complimentary hand-off training lesson at conclusion of stay. Having this expertise assures optimal experience in real world proofing. *Select "House Sitting" on my profile to book a premium board & train! 🏡 IN-HOME PRIVATE TRAINING LESSONS Get professional behavior coaching right where the issues happen!

I participate in local events, fundraising and Hound Around Town monthly. I have since expanded my efforts with Husky Haven of Florida as a transport for rescues. I’ve worked at Disney’s pet resort & dog daycare in downtown Orlando. 💯 My base rate listed on my profile covers standard, high-quality care (feeding, potty breaks, and companionship). Since I am a certified dog trainer, the context described above is offered as an active Training Add-On Package for an extra $15 per day. Just be sure to brief me in your contact message and we can discuss together further in detail. With dog training as my core, and having an Executive Assistant professional background of over 20 years, calendar maintenance comes natural and my availability is easily workable around varying schedules. If I’m not at the dog park or training, I can be available for services as necessary. I focus on science-backed methods that are mindful and effective, while integrating enrichment, affection, stimulation (both mentally and physically), rest breaks, sniffy walks, play time and cuddles. I prioritize the pet parents requests and instructions, aligned with fulfillment that meets the dog’s foundational needs.

“Mara and Marco were amazing with my little princess. Cali is 13 and a half and has arthritis, which makes mornings tough with some pain and difficulty walking. They sent me a video of her swimming in the pool and having a good time. I could tell she was happy and well cared for, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation with my daughter. Thank you Mara and Marco.”
“Priscilla was absolutely amazing with our lexy she sent videos of her everyday which I loved and she looked very happy with Priscilla. Thank you so much I will be using her from now on. Thank you sooooo much for taking such great care of her.”
“Bobo was a happy camper when he came home. Unfortunately I couldn’t Bobo pick up at the scheduled time. Lucky us Rebecca worked with us very well to get the situation solved. Looking forward to book with her again.”
“The best babysitter in Orlando hands down ! Gave me updates every time and gave me peace of mind while on vacation. So many photos and great with me changing times very often do to unexpected vacation I was on. One thousand percent I’ll be booking again in the next couple months. The best again like I said in Orlando with so much experience and understanding thank you”
“Venessa was great to work with! Very communicative & quick to respond. She sent videos & Bentley came home the next day very tired, after playing with her pup all day. Will definitely rebook with her!”
“Lily was well taken care of and was able to make herself right at home. I received a picture daily, wish it was at least twice but it’s ok. I would book again”
“My golden retriever loved staying with Connor for the weekend. He took great care of her & kept me updated with pictures. I will definitely book with him again!”
“Wonderful! They took care of our Border Collie, Maya, and our French Bulldog, Lebron, for over 10 days — two dogs with very different personalities that require specific attention. They kept me updated and I felt safe with them. Alexander really understands pets, and I could tell our dogs were well cared for and happy. I highly recommend them!”
“Christina is amazing. I trusted her to watch my Maeven from the moment I met her. She is super communicative and replies almost instantly. Her schedule is very flexible as well. She sent me pictures every day, updated me of any valuable information and kept Maeven super active as needed. Maeven is skittish of people but she immediately fell in liking of Christina which was amazing. I 100% recommend Christina and I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Jasmine is exactly what every loving dog owner is looking for in a pet sitter. Booking with her was simple and fast. She ensured that my dog had flea prevention to protect her home and the other dogs she cares for. When I took Sylvester to her home, she and her dogs gave us a warm welcome. She allowed me into her home so that I could see where Sylvester would be staying for the next couple days. Jasmine sent pictures of Sylvester every day with an update of how things were going. She sent me a picture of Sylvester lying on his back and exposing his entire belly as he slept, which let me know that he felt very safe and comfortable with her. Whenever I needed to reach Jasmine, she always responded quickly and kindly. I am so pleased with Jasmine’s service that I’m about to schedule another booking with her ASAP! Thank you, Jasmine, for such an amazing experience!”
“Tia is truly amazing! Our normal sitter wasn’t available, so we ended up meeting with Tia and knew she’d be perfect for our fur babies. She sent so many updates throughout their stay with her, so we knew they were doing well. One of our pups has very high anxiety, and he was allowing her to pet him by the end of the weekend (which is a HUGE deal for him). We honestly can’t speak highly enough of Tia and will have our pups stay with her as often as possible in the future!”
“Karina was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my Bruno and sent photos and updates regularly during his stay. She is also a professional dog groomer so she is able to offer those additional services to clients. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Very happy with the service Michael provided for our old girl Dory. I received many pictures of Dory throughout her stay that showed a relaxed dog. I’d be happy to seek their service again in the future.”
“Monica was amazing to my senior dog! She sent plenty of pictures and videos and accommodated my dog’s picky eating preferences. Monica made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with her and I could tell my dog felt more than comfortable being there when I arrived to pick her up at the end of the stay.”
“Jordan was great with Hokie and very responsive both before and during her stay. Hokie has anxiety with thunderstorms which I made Jordan aware of, she was willing to work with her and was observant when a storm was coming to be proactive with ways to calm Hokie. Overall I would definitely board with Jordan again!”
