“Camilla was amazing with my dog Bailey! She sent me the cutest photos so I could see how well she was doing. When my business trip got extended, Camilla was super flexible and allowed me to extend the booking two additional days. She was literally a lifesaver!! Look forward to booking with Camilla again in the future!!”

“Valeria was great! She is the first person I’ve ever used on rover and I dont see a need to use anyone else. I was a little nervous about leaving my dog for the first time in a new city but she assured me everything would be fine.(and it was) She sent plenty of pictures and kept me updated! Josie came home tired so I know she got plenty of play time. 100/10 would recommend!”

I never trust anyone with franklin yet with her I was able to be free of worries, I got pictures and updates all constantly and he was having the time of his life❤️ I can’t thank her enough and I wouldn’t doubt in using her services again. Franklin loved it, thank you Petra!”

“Estefania was a perfect sitter! She went above and beyond for me while I was away. My cat was in love with her and he looks forward to her next visit. Thank you!”
“An incredible job once again!! I have used Robin before and will hopefully use her again. She is a total professional and I loved how she played w my cats, her communication, and how she cleaned my apt! It was so nice coming home to having everything in such good order. She asked really specific questions so I knew she was following my instructions closely.”
“Kristina was willing to provide extra effort during the time we were away. My wife, I, and our cats appreciated her helpfulness while our condo contractors had an unexpected schedule change impacting our unit. We will certainly contact her again when we travel next.”
“I'm so glad Brenda was available to help visit my kitty while I was away. I really appreciate the help! She was very kind and responsive. Hope to get her help again in the future!”
“I recently moved and needed to find a new pet sitter I could rely upon. After reading her reviews, I chose Dawn and was not disappointed! She provided detailed updates and pictures with every visit. Most importantly, she was extremely patient with my fickle kitty. Being away from my guy is hard enough but it felt easier knowing he was in good hands with Dawn!”
“Mara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.”
“I couldn't recommend Kimmeth more highly. It's always a bit worrisome trusting the care of your pets to someone else, but Kimmeth truly exceeded our expectations in every way. Her daily updates and photos helped us feel connected while we were out of town, and she made a number of excellent suggestions to our feeding/litter/watering routine that we will now implement. She went "above and beyond" in every way, and we (and our cats) couldn't be happier with the care she provided.”
“Aby was absolutely fantastic with Jack, Thelma, and Louise while we were away! With three cats, including two younger girls with plenty of personality, we wanted someone we could really trust, and Aby was perfect. She was dependable, caring, and attentive, and kept us updated so we never had to wonder how everyone was doing. Jack was well looked after, Thelma got to be her cool, sassy self, and Louise was clearly very comfortable and happy too. 😻 It meant so much to come home to three relaxed, happy cats who had obviously been very well cared for. Aby is officially our go-to cat sitter, and we would happily book her again. We highly recommend her to anyone who wants someone kind, trustworthy, and wonderful with their pets! 🐾❤️”
“Nicole is top tier ! She is my go to and the only person I trust with my fur babies. She sends pictures and keeps me updated daily. Highly recommend her !”
“Caitlin was very communicative and gave lots of attention to my babies. She was on time every drop in visit and gave me updates with anything going on with my cats. Loved working with her!”
“Janice was so great with my 2 cats (one kitten one elderly) and sent us multiple pictures everyday to ease our minds on our vacation. I would definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Jessica provided excellent care for my cat during a recent trip. She was quick to respond and communicated well throughout the process. Would definitely book with her again!”
“I highly recommend Lauren as a pet sitter. She stayed at my house with my kitty for a week while I was on vacation. She not only took care of my cat but took great care of my home. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“This was our first experience using Rover and Brigitta was amazing! We have a 115 pound Great Dane. She is extremely timid and not very trusting of new people. Brigitta made her comfortable quickly and our big girl was happy to go back for day 2! We were sent pictures, videos, and updates all day long so there were no worries at all!”

“We arrived in Fort Lauderdale for an extended vacation. Between the long drive here from Chicago and the different settings on the way our somewhat clingy dog was even more clingy and nervous than usual. She was at our side constantly, but we needed to find a sitter for a few hours/days to allow us to golf, fish, etc. without the dog at our side. Tho we were nervous about leaving Bella with a stranger in a new place, it all worked out beautifully. Jody's house was well set up for pets and her own dogs were very friendly. Jody was very welcoming and calmed our fears. When we returned, we half expected to see our dog acting anxious, but she was just as calm and happy as if she had spent the day with us. We won't hesitate to call on Jody again for our next outing. We'd recommend Jody to anyone needing someone to care for their dog while away.”
“Luna had a wonderful time with Ilaria and her sweet family. We received lots of updates and photos, and they definitely took great care of her. We will be reaching out to Ilaria again for sure!”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all life stages from playful puppies to gentle seniors. As well as all sizes from small breeds to big pups.

For boarding I’m available 7 days a week! Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. Even though I work a full-time job Monday through Friday (8am-5pm) I live five minutes away from my workplace, which allows me to easily check in on my lunch breaks to manage feeding times and give potty breaks throughout the day. In the evenings and all weekend long I am home full time to hang out, play in the yard with Hazel and cuddle. For daycare I’m available weekends for full daycare.(Note: because of my Monday-Friday work hours, weekday daycare availability is limited but please reach out to see if we can make your schedule work!)

I promise to keep you updated with lots of pictures, videos and updates throughout the day so you always know they are happy and safe. When your pup stays with me, they will have access to a private, secure, fenced yard for playing and exploring, plus the best company: my sweet miniature dachshund, Hazel, who loves making new friends! Beyond the belly rubs, playtime and socialization, I am deeply committed to maintaining their routine, from strict feeding schedules to plenty of daily exercise. Your dog will truly have a safe, fun and loving home away from home.

We recommend Nicole as a competent and caring pet specialist. Nicole will always be our pet care specialist when needed.”

“Laura was a great dog walker for our dog Mischka, an elderly husky. We hired Laura to walk her several times over thanksgiving while we were away. We got prompt updates and photos and were very happy with Mischka’s care. Laura also fed her and she is a notoriously picky dog and stubborn about eating her meals so we were grateful for Laura’s patience with our feeding instructions. We were absolutely out at ease on our night away and would hire Laura again! She’s responsive, responsible and took great care of our dog.”
About: Caring for animals has been a meaningful part of my life for many years, including raising and caring for my own beloved dog, Nina, for over 16 years through every stage of her life, from energetic younger years to the extra patience and attentiveness that come with senior care. In addition to caring for my own pet, I’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends, both in my home and in theirs, and I also have experience caring for cats. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I believe consistency is incredibly important when caring for animals. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, or simply respecting the structure pets are used to, I make it a priority to follow your care instructions closely. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, organized, attentive to detail, and committed to keeping pets safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect thoughtful updates and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to provide reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week, including accommodating a variety of pet care routines and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I take scheduling commitments seriously so owners can feel confident their pets are being cared for on time and according to the routines they know and trust. My goal is to provide reliable care that fits seamlessly into both your schedule and your pet’s daily routine. Having been a devoted pet owner myself, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with your pet’s care. I know pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I believe great pet care starts with paying close attention to details and following each owner’s instructions carefully, whether that involves feeding schedules, walk preferences, medications, household rules, or recognizing changes in a pet’s behavior. I work hard to maintain the routines pets are familiar with so they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is always a priority, both during visits and on walks, and I’m attentive to ensuring pets remain safe, comfortable, and properly supervised at all times. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect regular updates and check-ins for added peace of mind. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space, attentive to security, and committed to leaving your home exactly as I found it.
About: I've been around pets my whole life. I grew up with cats and had a family dog throughout high school, and I've had my own cat for the last five years. Taking care of animals has always just been part of my everyday life. I've also helped friends in my apartment complex by walking and feeding their dogs while they're out of town. I know every pet has its own routine and personality, so I always make sure to follow the owner's instructions and give them the attention they need. I live in Flagler Village in Fort Lauderdale, so I'm nearby and available for local pet care. I'll treat your pet like I would my own and make sure they're well taken care of while you're away. I work from home, so I’m almost always around and able to give your pet attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to take multiple breaks for feeding, playtime, walks, and check-ins, rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. Having my own cat, I understand how important it is for pets to have a consistent routine and someone around who genuinely cares for them. I’m able to provide dependable care while also giving your pet the attention and companionship they need. I understand that every pet and home has its own routine, so I make it a priority to follow the instructions provided by each owner. In a client's home, I will make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive attention and playtime, and are comfortable in their familiar environment. I know cats especially can be sensitive to changes, so I believe keeping their normal routine is important. I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe and cared for while also keeping owners updated with messages and photos. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pet and the owner.
About: Hi, I’m a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and cats, too! I’ve been pet sitting for 7 years. I am certified in Cat and Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross, which demonstrates my preparedness to handle pet emergencies. This includes CPR for dogs and cats, wound care, and behavioral signs. I am skilled in administering medications, including insulin. I treat every pet like family.

For Overnight house sitting, it starts at 6pm and ends at 9am. For Boarding care, I do not have any pets and I have a back yard to play around in! Feel free to request, even if it’s last minute or same day! I treat every pet with respect when I first meet them. I always make sure to read their body language and let them get to know me first. I love to play and give your pet lots of attention. I always make sure to follow their routine. I also give regular updates with photos or videos!
About: Taking care of pets fills my heart with joy. I'm really aware of the owner's preference of care for their pets and go above and beyond to deliver what they expect from a caring and professional sitter to provide their peace of mind. I'm a full time office manager that can spend early mornings 7am- 8:30am with your fur babies, 12:30pm-2:30pm for lunch breaks and after 6:30pm on week days. Weekends can be consulted. I look forward on making your pet feel as happy as they can be while following your care instructions through and meeting your expectations and providing you peace of mind.

“Laura and Pipe where the embodiment of love and care towards my baby girl, Sarabi. They even set time aside to meet her so she may get along with them before the stay. They played with her, fed her and treated her like a queen. She will be seeing them once more for sure!”
“Zelda’s second stay with Kelly was just as great as the first one. She was even excited in the car as we were showing up to drop her off which is always a great sign! Kelly and her family are top notch and attentive and we will definitely be using her services again.”
“Another awesome stay with Gregory and Xena! It was clear from the photos he had a great time. Thank you Ms. Xena for letting Banksy steal your doggy bed from time to time. Looking forward to our next stay.”
“I recommend Maria D. sincerely and whole-heartedly! She is a special sitter. She went above and beyond in caring for our dog Ruby. Maria D. made us feel comfortable, at ease and peaceful that our Ruby was being cared for properly! She took the best care of Ruby and kept us informed constantly. Thank you, Maria! Until next time. ♥️🐕🦺🙏🏻”
“Anita Took great care of our precious baby. She was so happy during her stay with her. We really appreciate it and it allowed us to truly enjoy our trip. Thank you so much, Anita!”
“Lee Ann took amazing care of Simba! He can be a somewhat anxious dog but it was apparent that he immediately felt at home with Lee Ann and her family. She kept him busy and loved and cared for, and helped me feel at ease with regular photos and videos of his adventures at her home.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Spike this weekend! It is always such a relief knowing he is happy and well cared for (we have used Kristy several times). We’re so grateful and would 100% recommend.”
“Petra was just amazing in every aspect! She was super communicative, very caring and patient with my crazy dog. I never trust anyone with franklin yet with her I was able to be free of worries, I got pictures and updates all constantly and he was having the time of his life❤️ I can’t thank her enough and I wouldn’t doubt in using her services again. Franklin loved it, thank you Petra!”
“Sarah was absolutely phenomenal. Daily pictures, regular updates, and treated my pupper like he was her own. She worked with me on scheduling and made sure he got plenty of exercise. She is my number one choice if I have to go out of town and need a dog sitter!”
“Antonio was wonderful with Piper! She spent a little over one week with him at his home and I got pictures, updates, and came home to a happy and healthy Chihuahua :)”
“I cannot recommend Natalie and her family enough! This was the second time they’ve watched my dog Nala while I was out of town, and once again, they were absolutely wonderful. It’s such a relief knowing Nala is in such loving hands—she truly adores them and gets so excited to be around their family. Natalie goes above and beyond to make her feel at home, and I can see how comfortable and happy Nala is when she’s with them. They are truly the only people I trust to watch her whenever I’m away. I’m so grateful for Natalie and her amazing family and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own! 🐾❤️”
“Kacie did an amazing job taking care of Sophie! She kept me updated throughout her stay and made sure Sophie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands. Kacie was incredibly sweet, attentive, and thoughtful, and I could tell she genuinely cared about Sophie. I would absolutely recommend Kacie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 💕🐾”
“Great communication and good clean home where they were separated from the rest of the house and pets and had their own room and crates for them to be in and were very well taken care of and LOTS AND LOTS of walks so they got plenty of exercise!! Definitely will use her again!! Great pricing for those who struggle to be able to go on vacation because of how expensive everything is!”
“Ciara is very good at what she does. She asked all the right questions and was communicating with me the entire time I was on vacation sending me pictures, videos, updates!! She’s very professional and she’s very patient with our little pups I will be using her again!!”
About: Lifelong dog lover and current med student here! Raised alongside a Cockapoo and a Goldendoodle since I was six, I’ve spent nearly my whole life caring for pups. My medical training makes me exceptionally detail-oriented, reliable, and calm under pressure, while my inner kid just wants to provide the same love and attention I give my own family dogs. I’m a med student taking a gap year to study for my Step 1 exam. Since I study from home nearly 24/7, your pup will have constant companionship, a quiet environment, and endless study-break cuddles!. I’ve raised and loved a Cockapoo and a Goldendoodle since I was six years old, so dog care is second nature to me. Living right in Las Olas, I offer a premium, ultra-reliable, and highly attentive environment. My medical background means your pet is in the safest, most responsible hands possible!
“Sveta is an Absolutely Amazing Sitter ! Went Above and Beyond for Lychee. Really showed love and attention to my pup. Took her everyday to the dog park with the lake so she could swim, feed her everything I asked and more. When my scheduling got a little switched up, and I needed more time, she came through for us. Even though she was booked she helped me with a second sitter that I booked for the gap time I needed and picked her up again afterwords. I really can’t thank you enough 🤗🤗would absolutely have you sit lychee for me again in the future.”
