“Jocelynn and Kathryn took great care of our senior ladies on short notice. We received photo updates and the girls came back to us in great shape. We sincerely appreciate their help and the peace of mind we enjoyed while away.”
“Jada took amazing care of our boys while we were out of state. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and when one of our dogs wasn't feeling well, she monitored him closely, kept us informed, and made sure he stayed comfortable. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Carlos and Claudia were excellent sitters! We were always informed of what was going on with our dogs. They were great people. I love the set up that they have in their house for the dogs. I would recommend for anyone who needs a pet sitter to book with this two amazing people, you won’t regret it!”
“Yan was excellent! This was my first time away from my new pup, but she assured me through pictures, videos, and constant updates my boy was very well taken care of. She went above and beyond to give him the (much needed) attention he demanded and listened carefully to my recommendations and instructions. I highly recommend Yan and thank her for making this a very good first time away from my puppy!”
“This was our second time using Laurel, I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is very responsive and takes great care of our dogs while we’re gone! They always come home very tired and happy.”
“Salenia is the best dog sitter I have ever had. I live a half hour away, and she offered to pick me up and drop me off at the airport (on her way home). She was great about sending me photos of Carl and bringing up any potential concerns. She was concerned about my dog’s comfort, and has a very nice family. If I was staying in this area, she would be my only dog sitter!”
“Lauren- is beyond kind, she is truly a beautiful person. I felt completely at ease leaving my senior dog in her care. She communicated on regular cadence with pictures, and she even washed his bedding etc prior to me picking him up. She truly cares and it’s genuine, we are very blessed to have met her”
“Chris was the perfect match for our dog. His calm and gentle nature made Brindie feel right at home. He was communicative with us during her stay, enabling us to relax knowing she was in good hands. I totally recommend him for your pet sitting needs. Maggie B.”
“Laura was great and accommodating! We had a last minute trip and she was able to watch our dog and when our flight was delayed - she accommodate us and kept our pup an extra night without questions! She kept us up on how he was doing and sent pics! Outstanding!”
“Thank you for always taking great care of Taz. We truly appreciate it and feel comforted knowing he’s in good hands especially when we are gone for an extended time.”
“What a great experience working with Jeanette. My dog loved being in her home and around the other dogs. Priced very reasonably and above average service and commitment. I received regular updates and even pictures. Will definitely use her again.”
“Gabriela is totally awesome, she took excellent care of my two dogs for three and a half days and sent me awesome vids and updates throughout the entire time of them playing in the yard. Highly recommend her to pet sit, thank you some much!”

“I got stuck at work and wasn’t able to make it home to feed my kitties their lunch. I reached out to Joana last minute and she was so quick to respond. She made it to my home in time and my kitties loved her. She was so sweet with them and very gentle. Will definitely be reaching out in the future. Thank you Joana you are a life saver.”

She was professional, communicative, caring toward my cat, and attentive to his needs. She knew how to read his behavior and interact in a way that made him feel comfortable. Highly recommended for watching your cat!”
“This was our second time using Nevaeh to check in on our kitties and she is so reliable and great at communicating. We will definitely reach out to her in the future for all of our kitty needs!”
About: As a seasoned cat owner with 3 furry friends at home, l've honed my skills in providing top-notch care and attention to Cats. From nutrition and grooming to playtime,I understand the unique needs and personalities of cats. With my daily experience working in veterinary medicine, I'm also well-versed in providing skilled care.

About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 7 years and have experience with kittens, adults, seniors, and cats with unique personalities and needs. I understand that every cat has their own routine, and I strive to keep them comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I also cared for my own beloved cat through kidney disease, arthritis, and dementia, giving me firsthand experience providing compassionate care to senior and special-needs cats. Working in the pet care industry has also given me additional knowledge of feline behavior, nutrition, and enrichment. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or simply enjoys quiet company, I’ll provide attentive, dependable care and keep you updated every step of the way.
“Kaitlyn is fantastic with my pittie mix. He really loves her! There was excellent communication back and forth, she followed all the instructions for his meds, was respectful of my home, a genuine person and truly enjoys spending time with and caring for animals. Will definitely request her sitter services for my pup again.”
“She was absolutely perfect! I never had to worry about anything. Im so happy with the communication and pictures. I can tell she really loved our cats and that meant the world to me! Thank you so so much!! Incredible work!”
“Taz was very pleased with care he received. He can be a moody kitty and he can be difficult at times. He seemed very happy and healthy when we got home. Karen made us feel very comfortable leaving him under her care and kept us updated with pics and all. We are definitely going to use her again in future.”
“Danielle is a perfect fit for my reactive, rescue girl Lucy who is very people selective. Danielle has great instincts and pays excellent attention to detail. I look forward to working with Danielle on an ongoing basis when the need arises.”
About: I’m comfortable with cats & dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My guy is a wonderful handful so I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—not just feeding them and letting them out..but giving them attention, playtime, walks, and plenty of love. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Just like I would do for my own I am currently working 9–6 Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday, so Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday are the days I have the most flexibility for you and your furry ones. These are the days I can dedicate the most time and attention to your pets. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule visits, walks, and drop-ins around their individual needs. I work until 6pm so night time can be available if needed.

I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and videos (if you would like) so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing!
“Zarya was so great to have a drop in visit for my 12 week year old puppy. This was my first time using Rover, and I could not be more thankful for how attentive Zarya was and all the pictures and videos she sent along the way. I will definitely be using her again in the future, as I know my young pup is in great hands!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for more than 15 years. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, rescues, and pets with medical or behavioral needs. I currently work at a pet supply store, where I continue learning about pet nutrition, enrichment, training, and wellness. Outside of work, I’ve spent the past several years involved with rescue animals, giving me experience with dogs of many different temperaments and backgrounds. My own pets have taught me just as much. I previously cared for my beloved senior cat through kidney disease, arthritis, and dementia, so I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring changes in health, and providing compassionate senior and hospice-style care. I’ve also successfully managed dogs with fear-based aggression, giving me a strong understanding of canine body language, positive reinforcement, and how to safely build trust with anxious or reactive dogs. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking partner, medication, extra patience, enrichment, or simply a calm and dependable companion while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. I currently work flexible part-time hours at a pet supply store and am also an online student, which gives me a schedule that is easy to work around your pet’s needs. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or medication on a consistent schedule, I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible. I believe pets thrive on routine, and I do my best to keep their schedule as close to normal as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet villa in Naples with my friendly rescue dog and three indoor cats. Every pet is introduced thoughtfully and separated when appropriate, ensuring everyone feels safe and comfortable. I’m experienced caring for senior pets, rescues, anxious dogs, and pets with medical needs. Having cared for my own cat through kidney disease, arthritis, and dementia, and having worked extensively with rescue dogs and fear-based behaviors, I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and following each pet’s individual routine. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like one of my own.
“We recently moved to Naples and found Danayrys for a last minute request to watch Bowie. She took great care of him! I will definitely be requesting Dana for any dog sitting needs I have in the future!!”
“Irisbel was amazing with my dog! Everything was perfect from start to finish, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. Great communication, very caring, and professional. I’m extremely happy with the experience and highly recommend her. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time!”
“I am what most would call an “over-protective mother” when it comes to my fur baby. Finding someone to take care of her when I can’t was a daunting task until meeting Ms. Pamela. During our meet and greet, I was stunned when Pippa snuggled up to her as though they’d been friends forever (and that never happens with anyone)! At that point, I knew that Pamela had a true heart for the animals, and I was sold immediately. If you are a picky pup mom like me, I highly recommend you book Ms. Pamela! Pippa and I give her a 12/10 tail wags!!”
About: I've been an animal lover and a pet owner for many years - started with my cat Sophie, then fourteen years with my Yorkie, "Little Squishy Guy", through all the puppy antics, vet runs, and lazy couch days...until he passed last summer. Now I dog sit for friends and neighbors: walks, treats, cuddles. Yours gets that same warm care. I can only host dogs under 40 lbs. I'm retired and mostly home, so I'm flexible - your pet can get walks, feeds, or playtime whenever you need. I'm here most days, so no rushed schedules or surprises - your dog gets steady attention. Mornings are good for walks or breakfast, afternoons for play or rest, evenings for quiet time. Late drop-off? Early pickup? No problem. I'm not leaving. I board pets right here at my house - daytime or overnight. It's quiet, clean, secure: we hang out on the lanai, soaking up beautiful weather, fresh grass underfoot, and the beautiful water view. No loud noises or strangers - just calm space for walks, meals, potty breaks, or chilling together. I live alone and retired, so I'm gonna be hanging out with your dog all day. Your pup gets one-on-one attention.
“Max had a wonderful time with Renee and Toby. You can tell that Renee is a pet lovers. She is a very loving and caring person, Renee took Max on daily walks (which he loves) and she sent me many messages and pictures (which I loved). I would definitely recommend Renee to others. I found a great sitter and Max made a new friend (Toby).”
“Thank you so much Carlos & Claudia for watching our Lady while we were away for the weekend. The updates were much appreciated & the setup of the house for the dogs is phenomenal. We will absolutely consider your services again whenever we have to leave her in your care! Thanks again ??”
“Michele and Leo were phenomenal. I am in town visiting and luckily found this magical place to leave my baby. Harley loved playing with her new friend April (another yorkie). Michele sent multiple photos of my dog relaxing and taking over her home for the delay. I am forever grateful for this positive experience. Thanks Michele! We will have to come visit again soon.”
“Moving to a new area is always a big worry for me as I have a 16-year old dog. He has been in daycare from puppy on and there are times I need to be away and need daycare and/or boarding. Finding Jackie and Russ has been a blessing and a huge relief. They are wonderful, kind, easy to work with, answer quickly and my dog is safe, comfortable and happy in their home when I need their services. Thank you so much! An amazing find!”
About: Experienced pet owner and lover with 8 years of volunteer experience. I am comfortable with energetic puppies, large breeds, senior pets, and administering medications. I provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry family members. Plus, I love taking pictures, so you'll get lots of happy photo updates while you're away! I am currently taking a break from my full-time career, my schedule is completely open. This allows for mid-day adventures, flexible potty breaks, and unlimited cuddles—your dog will literally never be alone. Your pet's safety is my top priority. My home is clean, safe, and fully pet-proofed. I have a secure environment and am vigilant about preventing escapes or accidents. To help them feel right at home, dogs are absolutely allowed on the furniture—couches and beds are welcome here! (Just let me know your rules at home so I can stay consistent).
“Marijana is truly the best pet sitter this app has. I needed boarding for my fur baby last minute for a few days and she went above and beyond. Not only did she take him last minute she gave me constant updates and videos. She even gave me training details to help with some behavioral issues. Her family was truly welcoming and very warm and caring. I would use her every time I need care for my doggo. She is very well knowledge when caring for animals and their safety. I felt so safe and confident with him being in their care.”

Moments of rest and bedtime will also take place in the same kennels.

About: What sets me aside is the fact I will go above and beyond to treat your animal(s) like my own. I’m here to ease your pet pains. I want you to enjoy the vacation/trip you’re on, without worrying about your animals care. I will absolutely make sure your animal feels at home, comfortable, active, and so loved. I cannot wait to meet your fur babies :) I currently help my husband run his company in Naples so I’m local, flexible, and dependable. I’m up early in the morning so walking or feedings in the AM or not a problem at all. I’ll make sure above and beyond that your animal is taking care of and loved to the fullest. Making them feel most comfortable is top priority. Will accommodate any special requests.
“I am truly grateful that Cara took the time out to care for my two cane corsos (Skye and Shine). My girls enjoyed Cara’s company. She’s truly a blessing! We look forward to using Cara again!”

“Chase was amazing. He was right on time and it seemed like Bennie loved him. Usually Bennie is a bit stubborn getting back into his crate, but he went right in with Chase. I would definitely use Chase again. Thank you!”
About: I've taken care of my own cats and dogs for many years and will treat your fur babies with the care and attention I do my own. I'm retired and will consider your pet's needs as my top priority. I'm available mornings and afternoons. Would prefer to avoid schedules after 7pm unless an emergency. I do not have the option of caring for your pet in my home due to my own pets but will take care of your pets and property as if the were my own.
“Tamesha did an excellent job with my pups, Layla & Hooch. She communicated very well, & was punctual on each day. I highly recommend Tamesha for all your pet's needs !!!”
“I would 100% recommend Claudia to anyone. She communicated well, even sending multiple pictures and videos after the dog walks. She was punctual and always on time, and very flexible. Claudia went above and beyond spending some quality time hanging out with my dog and giving her special attention. I will definitely choose her again and am so grateful for finding her on Rover.”
About: I love all pets and can care for them as you request. They will have free range of the fenced in yard and house. I will text daily photos/videos of your dog to ease any stress of leaving your companion at home. **I pet sit because I WANT to not because I HAVE to. I only allow one other dog at a time in the home. This allows me to give the your pet more attention than with dealing with several dogs at a time.** Smoke free home. I am retired and since moving to our 2.5 acre property I thought there is no better way to host pets. I am home most of the time. If I go out it is just for a quick errand. I have a fully fenced in yard with an electric gate. Always closed for 24 hour protection. I have a very friendly golden retriever for your pets company.

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I offer a laid-back and confident approach to pet care. With years of experience and a passion for animals. Comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including those with special needs or unique quirks. Personalized care focuses on creating a calm and happy environment where a furry friend can thrive Willing to learn your pets specific requirements and give them a happy stay/walk or anything requested As a self employed dog sitter, I am Happy to accommodate any schedule as long as there is availability. I believe pets should have a consistent/ fun environment that provides a sense of familiarity and also a good amount of play/exercise as needed. In a nice house with a fenced yard and quiet neighborhood I can offer excellent sitting services. Walks and park visits. Or in home sitting as well. Feel free to inquire and I look forward to hearing about you and your pet!
About: I have 8 years of animal welfare and care experience. I’ve worked as a vet tech at both a general day vet practice and an emergency vet. I also worked in an animal shelter as a team lead for two years. In my free time I volunteer with animal rescues and sanctuaries. I feel comfortable taking care of almost all animals including exotics and disabled or medically needy pets. (My baby is both deaf and blind and has seizures as well and I know how hard it can be to find care for pets like him) I am available every day from 9:00 am - 10:00 pm unless indicated on my calendar! If you have any questions please feel free to ask! I know some pets might be escape artists and make sure all safety precautions are put into place. I take my time with each individual pet and know some take a bit more time to trust. I do a health check on each visit. I also like to send photos as often as an owner will allow it along with FaceTime when requested.
About: As someone who has two dogs myself, I know how important it is to have a trust worthy person interacting with my pets. I always grew up with at least one dog or cat in my household so I have a lot of experience interacting with dogs. I’ve also spent my time volunteering with an organization that trains future assistant dogs before relocating from St Louis. I work remotely full-time so I have a lot of flexibility within the week to do check-ins in your home. I have no issues with keeping weekends open for longer check-ins as well. For check-ins, I’m very open to what your needs are for your pet. I have no issues taking your dog for a walk, regardless of their on leash training. I have experience with crating dogs as well if needed.
About: Hi, I’m Danielle — a caring sitter who specializes in overnight and extended stays. I provide a peaceful, attentive presence for pets while their people are away, and I focus on a small number of bookings to give each animal the time and care they deserve. I’m currently prioritizing multi-night bookings and have limited availability for short drop-ins or one-off day visits. I have never in 20+ years cancelled on anyone going out of town, although recently I did have to cancel a 2 drop-ins when owners were going out to eat, due to flu. It was inconvenient and regrettable, but in situations where an animal truly needed me, I have always come through. Always. I offer my clients peace of mind, respect for your animals and a high level of loving care. This value was developed over time. When I care for your pets during a house stay, I’m not just feeding and walking — I’m pressing pause on my own routines to move into theirs. House sitting is a full commitment that includes emotional labor, flexibility, and presence. Many years ago while living in NJ and going to college, a family member and I set up PawsOnThePark as a pet care service. I did the animal care for that for 2 years. I regularly did drop-in and overnight visits for a variety of dogs and cats. I have experience with administering medication as well as reinforcement training for young animals. I have also worked at PetSmarts Doggie Day care and have known the joy of handling 10+ dogs in the same room. While there, I also cared for the boarded cats and learned about feline care. I consider every animal I care for to be a good friend. While I take the responsibility for their well-being very seriously, we always have fun together and my fur friends receive lots of love, undivided attention, and care. I started by training my family sheepdog at age 10 and have been caring for animals ever since. Until recently I was the mother of 2 elderly Shih Tzus; I have experience with dogs of all ages. I know the importance of consistency -- whether that applies to experiences, medications and food, familiar surroundings, or using the same training cues. Also, my personal limit for dog weight is 75 pounds. Rover classes dogs 41-100 in one group but I can responsibly take care of dogs up to about 75 pounds depending on how well they are trained to walk on a leash. I do digital gig work from home (web development, fixing sites, automation etc.) so I have an extremely flexible schedule. It means I can dog sit and work from your home as long as the Wifi is good. I can take frequent breaks to go on a walk or tend to your pets. In fact it doing that is good for me. Your animals will generally have human company most of the day, even when I am not interacting directly with them. I am able to set aside a significant amount of time for their care and direct interaction (play, walks, general attention). I offer attentive, loving care — but please know that house sitting means more than just pet care. It’s a full lifestyle shift for me during your trip, and it takes total commitment it to do it well. I am happy to come to your residence for any length of time, whether for short walk or a long visit. The environment I create around your pets is loving and calming. Clients can count on reliable, professional care and someone who treats this responsibility with the utmost respect. For house stays, I am at the house except for errands and an occasional outing limited to 3 hours max. Your pets’ wellbeing is my main focus. I have great respect for the animals in my care and for your property. My service is for pet parents who appreciate attentive care and knowing their pets are in capable, compassionate hands . That said if your pets like their space I give it to them, but I am no less concerned and focused on their health and comfort.
About: Its a long standing family joke that I’m the person who walks into a crowded room and heads straight to the dog or cat to make friends! I’ve always been comfortable taking care of animals. I have owned, adopted, fostered, and pet sit for a variety of breeds of dogs and cats for friends, family, and now my own clients. Also of note, some of the animals I have cared for needed regular medical treatment, and I am comfortable with accommodating that as well. I like to keep my clients updated on their pets with daily reports and photos as often and with as much information as they request. I want you to be comfortable knowing YOUR furry family member is in the best hands! Thanks for looking! Let me know if you’d like to discuss your pet care needs!

She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and when one of our dogs wasn't feeling well, she monitored him closely, kept us informed, and made sure he stayed comfortable. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We would absolutely book with her again!”

“Salenia is the best dog sitter I have ever had. I live a half hour away, and she offered to pick me up and drop me off at the airport (on her way home). She was great about sending me photos of Carl and bringing up any potential concerns. She was concerned about my dog’s comfort, and has a very nice family. If I was staying in this area, she would be my only dog sitter!”

I felt so comfortable leaving Leo in her care and will definitely use her services again.🐾”
