This was the 2nd time our pup, Romeo, has stayed with Nina. She has made him feel comfortable and right at home, evident in all the pictures and videos she provided during his stay. During this last visit, Nina went above and beyond by crafting Romeo a sweater to take home as well as having him participate in some arts and crafts projects as a gift to us. We appreciate Nina watching our pup while we’re out of town and will definitely be using her for any future needs and recommending her to our friends. Thank you Nina and Piccolo!

About: I have had plenty of dogs since I was a little kid big and small. My passion is to be a vet in a few years. I’m trying to make money to go to veterinarian school. I absolutely love animals. Any kind. I am working part time with my own schedule so I will have time for your pets to play and walk ! Your pets are welcome to stay! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I am an active person and will love to run and walk with them. I have a dog of my own and she is super sweet she just wants to make friends. And if your dog doesn’t like other dogs I can make that work too.

Joseph and his dad took great care of Mia. I was worried about her being around his dog, Luna, because she is a big dog. Normally, Mia doesn't get along well with big dogs. She loved Luna, and they did well together. I had an emergency the night I was supposed to pick up Mia. Joseph was gracious enough to let Mia stay until I could pick her up the next day. Joseph is very kind, understanding, and compassionate. You can tell that Joseph and his dad really love dogs.

As a business owner in the boarding and dog industry myself, trusting someone to stay in my home and care for my dogs was a huge deal for me — especially since our dogs have quite a few senior and special-care needs. Jonathan absolutely exceeded every expectation. We are definitely “those” pet owners with a million instructions wanting everything done just right, and he handled all of it with patience, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was incredible. Any time I reached out, he responded within minutes, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s very rare to find people you genuinely trust with your home and your animals, but he made the entire experience stress-free. The dogs were well cared for, happy, and all of their special needs were accommodated without issue. Honestly, this experience changed things for us. For the first time, we actually feel like we can travel and enjoy vacations without worrying the entire time. We’re already planning our next trip knowing we have a person we can truly rely on. Highly, highly recommend Johnathan Absolute gems.

About: I have decades of experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to senior cats with special needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring health and behavior, and providing plenty of affection while respecting each cat's unique temperament. I also understand the importance of a clean environment and am meticulous about litter box maintenance, food and water hygiene, and keeping cats safe and comfortable in their own homes. My goal is to reduce stress for both cats and their owners by providing dependable, compassionate care and regular updates while you're away.

Mallory has been a life saver for us. We have an African Grey parrot and she’s wonderful with her.We also have a 17 year old Coton de Tulear named Jeter who is failing quickly. I was afraid to leave him until I met Mallory. She urged me to not worry about hm and she took such good care of him, sending photos and videos reassuring me my pets were in great caring hands. I would HIGHLY recommend Mallory to provide all the love and care your pets need and deserve.

Bruny is AMAZING. I am so attached to my cat also knowing that he has cancer and Bruny gave me peace knowing Rory is ok when I went travelling for Spring Break. I didn't have to worry whether if he was OK because Bruny would always send me updates and pictures of how Rory was doing. When we had our meet-up, she showed her knowledge in taking care of Rory and making sure that everything is set and ready to go. SHE IS AMAZINGGGGG! I highly recommend you booking her. Her personality is the best and she genuinely cares about taking care of your pet. My boyfriend and I just also recently rescued a cat (staying at my BF place) and she donated bowls and food for her and it was the most sweetest thing ever. Seriously, you can't go wrong with booking Bruny! I would definitely book her again.

I can be extremely flexible to fit almost any need or rigorous schedule. I have an apartment by myself, with my 1 dog, with nice trails and fenced in areas to let pets play off leash. I also have different enrichment toys and other exercises for physical and mental stimulation.

About: As a proud dog dad and lifelong animal lover, caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their fur babies while they’re away, and I treat every pet like one of my own. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, including check-ins, walks, playtime, treats, feeding, and plenty of companionship to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I also have a fenced backyard with space for pets to run around, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. I’m able to provide morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship to make sure pets stay comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I also make time for regular exercise, potty breaks, and one-on-one attention so every pet gets the care they deserve. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed and secure while away from home. I make sure pets are always supervised during playtime and outdoor activities, and I keep my home pet-friendly and free of hazards. I also follow each owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, exercise needs, and any special precautions. My goal is to create a calm and loving atmosphere where every pet feels safe, cared for, and treated like family.

About: An avid animal lover! I grew up with dogs. They loved me just as much as I loved them. My grandparents always had dogs since the time I was born. Their favorite one: German Rottweiler. They are beautiful dogs and so protective. I always helped my grandparents all the time with the dogs. We would have 6 or more dogs in the household all at once, so I have experience with having multiple dogs at once. Additionally, I can teach them tricks such as giving paw, sitting, laying, etc. I have experience from puppies to senior dogs as I know they required different type of care. I'll treat them like they are my own. I currently work full time during the weekdays, but I'm available after 6pm on the weekdays and all day availability on the weekends. I'll be able to provide the care they require. I don't have any dogs at home. However, I do have kids, so I understand the safety and how important it is to have a safe environment. However, currently not offering services to have dogs at my home at this time.

About: I have owned cats and dogs all of my life and can't imagine my home without them. Animals give us unconditional love, and they deserve the same in return. I have given IV treatments to ailing cats with kidney damage and experience with dispersing meds/pills by mouth. I will treat all your loved ones with the same care that I provide my own. I am retired; I work independently from home and have a lot of free time. I am looking for some fur babies to take care of so their guardians can feel comfortable leaving them. I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. I am happy to feed, water and clean pet areas as part of my home visits. I will scoop litter boxes as well. I take their health seriously and fresh water/food is a very important part of staying healthy. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.

About: Calm, attentive care tailored to your pet. ☀️ Summer Safety Advisory ☀️ Due to Florida’s extreme heat and humidity, dogs are at serious risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke in as little as 10–15 minutes of exertion during peak sun hours. Because of this, all walks during late spring through early fall may be shortened or adjusted for safety and replaced with enrichment-based activities, shaded sniff time, or indoor play when appropriate. Your dog’s health and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I provide thoughtful, enrichment-focused care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is not just to “get through” a visit, but to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a background in wildlife sanctuary rehabilitation and have served as an adoptions director, which means I’ve worked hands-on with animals of all temperaments, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications ( just not injections), managing multi-pet households, and supporting shy, anxious, senior, or special-needs pets. My approach to pet care is informed by ongoing education in dog behavior, body language, and force-free, reward-based training. I pay close attention to stress signals, pacing, and environment, and I adjust each visit accordingly. Whether your dog needs structured activity, calm companionship, or space to decompress, I aim to meet them where they are. 🦴 Bonus Enrichment Option I also manage one of Gainesville’s top-rated private Sniffspots, The Zoomie Zone, located in Midtown. This fully private, reservation-only yard is ideal for dogs who benefit from off-leash play without the pressure of public dog parks. Many clients choose to incorporate Sniffspot visits into walks or drop-ins as a way to provide safe zoomies, sniff-based enrichment, or low-distraction decompression time. If you’re interested in adding a Sniffspot visit to your booking, feel free to ask. Returning clients can also receive discount codes for independent bookings. Whether we’re heading out for a structured walk, enjoying shaded sniff time, or keeping things low-key indoors, I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care you can trust. 🗓️ Scheduling and booking process To make sure every booking is safe, smooth, and a good fit, I require a complimentary 15-minute meet and greet for all new clients. This takes place at the location where care will be provided and gives us a chance to review your pet’s routine, home setup, safety needs, and comfort level. **Meet and greet exceptions:** * Cats do not require a meet and greet unless there are medications, behavioral concerns, or a complicated home setup * Puppies under five months may be booked without a meet and greet when appropriate * Returning clients may fast-track future bookings Please schedule your meet and greet at least 72 hours before your first requested service so we have enough time to coordinate properly. After the initial meet and greet, you are all set for future bookings. If you move to a new home or apartment, you are welcome to schedule another visit so I can become familiar with the new layout, entry instructions, and pet-care setup. 🚶‍♀️ Dog walks and drop-ins I organize dog walks and cat drop-ins into efficient daily routes using flexible arrival windows. This helps reduce unnecessary travel time while still allowing me to provide thoughtful, attentive care during every visit. Dog-care windows: * Standard visits generally take place between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM * Morning visits may begin as early as 8:00 AM * Evening visits may be available for dogs who need additional flexibility **Cat-care windows:** * My preferred cat visit window is between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM * Visits requiring medication or strict timing will be scheduled around those needs whenever possible Dogs are generally prioritized earlier because of restroom needs, but every pet receives the same level of care, attention, and communication. 🐾 Premium boarding Boarding is a high-touch, in-home service for clients who want a fully hands-off experience while their dog is away. At this time, boarding is available only to dogs who already have an established walking, drop-in, or daycare relationship with me. This helps ensure your dog is already comfortable with me, my home, my routine, and my resident pets before an overnight stay. While boarding with me, your dog will: * Live inside my home as part of the household * Be my only boarding guest and receive individualized attention * Receive daily enrichment, engagement, and structured downtime * Enjoy supervised access to my private Sniffspot for play, sniffing, and decompression * Follow a routine tailored to their age, energy level, temperament, and physical needs Enrichment may include: * Frozen meals or food puzzles using West Paw Toppls * Sniff-based games, treat hunts, and low-pressure training activities * Nature walks or hikes at San Felasco when weather permits * Visits to quiet recreational fields when no other animals are present * Indoor play and low-impact enrichment during extreme heat or storms Most dogs return home happy, fulfilled, and very ready for a nap. 🚨 Boarding behavior and safety expectations The safety and comfort of my resident pets are a top priority. Dogs boarding with me must be safe around cats and respectful toward my personal dog. Dogs showing aggression, predatory behavior, severe resource guarding, or repeated unsafe behavior toward resident animals may not be eligible for boarding. If a boarding stay must be ended for safety reasons, care may be converted to drop-in visits at your home for feeding, potty breaks, and companionship whenever possible. 🚗 Premium pick-up and drop-off For added convenience, I offer pet transportation as an optional add-on. I can personally pick up or return your dog along my existing daily route, allowing you to leave your dog comfortably at home without coordinating an in-person handoff. This service is priced accordingly to reflect the additional time, travel, and personalized care involved. ⛔ Important booking policies * One complimentary meet and greet is included for new clients * Additional meetings should be booked as a walk or drop-in to cover time and travel * Every pet receiving care must be listed on the Rover booking * Bookings should be confirmed within 48 hours of the meet and greet or the requested time may be released * House-sitting and drop-in bookings follow a seven-day cancellation policy * Availability is not guaranteed until a booking has been formally confirmed by you. through Rover. If you have questions, a complicated schedule, or a pet with unusual care needs, I am always happy to talk through the details before booking. Care philosophy and communication: In my home, pets and plants are family, and every animal in my care is treated with the same level of respect, attention, and consideration I give my own. I understand that every pet has an individual personality and different needs. Some thrive on companionship, while others prefer play, structure, quiet encouragement, or simply having a calm person nearby. My goal is to be a steady, reassuring presence your pet can rely on while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in their own home or taking them on an enrichment field trip to The Zoomie Zone, I focus on creating a safe, engaging, and low-stress experience that supports both their physical and emotional well-being. During each visit, you’ll receive a detailed Rover Card with notes about meals, potty breaks, mood, activities, and anything noteworthy from our time together. If your pet gives me an especially great photo opportunity, I may also send along a favorite edited image. Unless something genuinely requires your attention, I will not interrupt your vacation, work trip, or conference. My goal is to be both your pet’s advocate and your peace of mind while you’re away. 🚨 Safety and stress policy Safety is always my top priority, both for your pet and for me. If a pet displays aggression, extreme fear, severe anxiety, or behavior that makes a visit unsafe, I will still make every reasonable effort to ensure their essential needs are met, including food, water, medication when safely possible, and potty access. However, I may modify or shorten the visit if continuing would increase stress or create a risk of injury. This is never done as punishment. It is a safety decision intended to prevent escalation and protect everyone involved. Any significant concerns will be clearly documented and communicated to you. 🛏️ Crate or confinement requirement for boarding For boarding stays, dogs must be comfortable resting safely in a crate, exercise pen, gated room, or behind another secure household barrier. This is a firm boarding requirement. At night, during meals when separation is needed, and anytime dogs cannot be directly supervised, boarding guests will be safely confined. This gives every animal appropriate space to rest and ensures all pets remain secure while I am sleeping, showering, completing household tasks, or briefly away from home. Crates and gated spaces are always used as calm, neutral resting areas, never as punishment. If your dog normally uses a crate, pen, gated room, or another confinement routine at home, please share the details with me so I can keep their stay as familiar and low-stress as possible. Dogs do not need to love being crated, but they must be able to tolerate safe confinement without panicking, attempting to escape, or injuring themselves. If your dog is not currently comfortable with any form of secure separation, boarding may not be the right fit at this time. In that case, drop-in care in their own home may be a safer and more comfortable alternative. This is non-negotiable.

About: Hello, I am an animal lover of all kinds. I have always had a dog and cat among other pets in my life, whether by others or my own. In the past I volunteered as a fur baby foster parent and was fur mommy to a beautiful girl "Chula" 🐶 we adopted in 2000 and sadly after 17 years got her wings. My family and I always include our fur babies in everything, at holidays, sometimes it seemed to be more dogs 🐶 of all sizes then people 😊. I want to help you feel at ease and have piece of mind when you are away by providing the utmost respect, fun and care for an important member of the family☺️ I can provide a loving and warm inviroment with 3 arces fully fenced yard. I have cared for chickens, pot belly pigs, birds am always ready to try more 😁 My schedule allows for plenty of time for cuddles, furbaby love, feeding, walks, outside time, potty time and entertaining, or just lounging hanging out 🙂 I offer the utmost respect to others and fur babies! They will receive love and feel at home and most importantly do everything I can for you and your fur baby to be comfortable. We have 3 acres fully fenced in, so plenty of room to let out energy and playtime 🙂

Brenda and her family provide exactly what I was hoping for. Instead of being home all day by herself, my dog is taken care of by kind dog lovers. She also gets to socialize with another small dog. I can tell my dog enjoys being there. She runs right up to Brenda to greet her when we arrive. And when I pick her up, she is not desperate to leave. Highly recommend.

This is Alexander and Josephine’s second time watching Merlin and I am so appreciative of them. They allowed me to drop him off relatively early in the morning, sent plenty of photos and videos throughout the day, and made sure he was fed before I picked him up. Merlin absolutely loves staying with them, as evident by his whining and excitement when we arrived outside their home. Whenever they’re available, they are my #1 choice for watching Merlin.

About: I was taught to meet the emotional needs of pets in my care, nurturing who they are. My dad trained dogs on our property; I learned to move in a way they understand. Because I work from home, I am able to be very attentive. Our yard is fully fenced; five responsible adults live here with us. A quick pandemic story: We had a Chihuahua-Papillon mix named Jacques Cousteau. One night home alone, I saw how much strain he had when eating his crunchy food. He was only a few pounds, and always a bit picky. Today, his food looked more like a Gobstopper. We drove straight to PetSmart, bought the highest quality, softest dog food they had. I remember the first time he tried his new food. He looked at his bowl, looked at me, looked back at his bowl... then, jumped off the chair where he eats, ran and jumped onto my lap, excitedly licking my whole face! Jacques gained a few more pounds in the next month or so, which made him much healthier than before we switched food! I loved seeing him happy, back to his old self again. My goal is to treat you and your pets like members of my family. Because it isn’t always easy to trust a stranger, it is more important than ever to be responsible for the lives we touch. We all deserve our deepest levels of care. I work from home as a full-time business owner, and absolutely love animals! I set my own schedule, take good notes and photos, and am very detail-oriented. I have a fully fenced yard and a reliable car. Whether you need to drop your dog off somewhere safe, or need someone reliable to check in, I am someone you can count on.

About: I have owned cats and dogs all of my life and can't imagine my home without them. Animals give us unconditional love, and they deserve the same in return. I have given IV treatments to ailing cats with kidney damage and experience with dispersing meds/pills by mouth. I will treat all your loved ones with the same care that I provide my own. I am retired; I work independently from home and have a lot of free time. I am looking for some fur babies to take care of so their guardians can feel comfortable leaving them. I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. I am happy to feed, water and clean pet areas as part of my home visits. I will scoop litter boxes as well. I take their health seriously and fresh water/food is a very important part of staying healthy. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.

About: I have taken care of all types of animals ranging from dogs to chickens, as well as birds and horses, and have grown up with cats all my life. The dog breeds I have cared for in my work experience have been pitbulls, standard poodles, lab/hound mixes, golden retrievers, chow mixes, chihuahuas, etc. I am currently taking a year off from working as a full-time elementary teacher, so my availability has become much more flexible in regards to accommodating future clients' schedules. As a courtesy, however, a 1 week in advance notice is always preferred, so that way I may plan accordingly!😁 I would prefer to fur-babysit at my client's home just because it is where they are most familiar, and I want them to be comfortable. I love to capture my time spent with them and send you plenty of photos to ensure they are in the best care possible!

About: As a proud dog dad and lifelong animal lover, caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their fur babies while they’re away, and I treat every pet like one of my own. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, including check-ins, walks, playtime, treats, feeding, and plenty of companionship to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I also have a fenced backyard with space for pets to run around, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. I’m able to provide morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship to make sure pets stay comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I also make time for regular exercise, potty breaks, and one-on-one attention so every pet gets the care they deserve. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed and secure while away from home. I make sure pets are always supervised during playtime and outdoor activities, and I keep my home pet-friendly and free of hazards. I also follow each owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, exercise needs, and any special precautions. My goal is to create a calm and loving atmosphere where every pet feels safe, cared for, and treated like family.

About: Hi there! My name is Marissa, and I am hoping to become a trusted caretaker for you & your fur family within the Gainesville community. My whole life, my family has always had a house full of animals- from dogs and cats to lizards, birds, rabbits, hamsters, etc. Now, as an adult, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, all with extremely unique and different personalities. I spent 6 years volunteering at my local humane society and have experience walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for all sizes and breeds of dogs and cats. I am very comfortable with any breed of dog and I am also very respectful of cats, I am keen on pets cues for boundaries. I understand all pets are different and I’d be honored to help you and your fur family in your time of need, while on vacation, etc. I’ve used rover in the past as a customer and have had good experiences with the app. I am new to this area but if you give me a chance I promise to take the best care of your pets while building trust in this community. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you! I have no problem waking up very early or stopping by very late and any time in between. My schedule is flexible at the moment. Every pet is unique and different in their own way. I have had a lot of experience with my own pets and my time volunteering at the humane society - I understand some dogs try to run out every chance they get or some dogs are food aggressive. I typically like to know your routine, with detailed notes/stopping by and introducing myself so you can show me how to properly care for your pet(s) while you are away. Trust is important and I know it can be scary using an app for pet care. Our pets are our family and I hope to start building a reliable reputation within this community.

About: I’ve work with dogs and other animals for the last 8 years. From puppies to seniors and everything in between. I’ve also helped train a few service dogs and actively show and compete in sports with my own dog. My life is centered around my dog and I work from home. I can be extremely flexible to fit almost any need or rigorous schedule. I have an apartment by myself, with my 1 dog, with nice trails and fenced in areas to let pets play off leash. I also have different enrichment toys and other exercises for physical and mental stimulation.

This was the 2nd time our pup, Romeo, has stayed with Nina. She has made him feel comfortable and right at home, evident in all the pictures and videos she provided during his stay. During this last visit, Nina went above and beyond by crafting Romeo a sweater to take home as well as having him participate in some arts and crafts projects as a gift to us. We appreciate Nina watching our pup while we’re out of town and will definitely be using her for any future needs and recommending her to our friends. Thank you Nina and Piccolo!

Joseph and his dad took great care of Mia. I was worried about her being around his dog, Luna, because she is a big dog. Normally, Mia doesn't get along well with big dogs. She loved Luna, and they did well together. I had an emergency the night I was supposed to pick up Mia. Joseph was gracious enough to let Mia stay until I could pick her up the next day. Joseph is very kind, understanding, and compassionate. You can tell that Joseph and his dad really love dogs.

She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear my pup was happy, comfortable, and well loved the entire time. When I got home, my dog was relaxed and clearly had a wonderful experience. I would 100% trust Paola again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much, Paola!

Sarah did a fantastic time taking care of our pet. While we were gone over the holidays. She had to deal with New Year's Eve and our pet being afraid of fireworks. There were no occurrences of panic and she came home completely at ease. Our pet did not show any behavior issues of anger that we went off and left her, so that is the highest compliment I can give. Thank you so much, Sarah and family!

About: I not only grew up around dogs, but I’ve worked in animal shelters and a pet resort, where I was responsible for the needs of dogs and cats. I earned 44 hours of volunteer work at the Humane Society in St. Thomas, U.S.V.I., where I gave tours to potential dog owners. I worked at Pet Suites and LifeLine, where I ensured all pets received their food and/or medicine in a timely manner. I have fostered dogs for Angels Among Us and found homes for all of them. I also take an interest in dog training. I’m not a licensed trainer, but I enjoy teaching dogs manners and tricks. I currently work part-time Tuesday through Thursday from 9 AM to 5 PM, which means I have open availability in the mornings, evenings, and full availability on Fridays through Mondays. I’m very organized and plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, care, and consistency they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with other dog neighbors. There’s a lot of grass surrounding the complex. While at work, I prefer letting dogs roam unless they need to be in a crate.

Michelle is the best! We are incredibly particular about who we entrust with taking care of our precious fur baby, and we felt confident and safe with Michelle from the get-go. She was very proactive about learning our dog’s habits, schedule, and temperament so that she could ensure to make things as comfortable for her as possible, while also providing a fun vacation. We loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay, and our dog seemed very happy. Would definitely board with Michelle again, and couldn’t recommend her more highly!
