“I completely trust Madelyn to care for my dog Charlie. He loves her family and their dog Penny! Madelyn is great to communicate with and easy going. She kept me updated during Charlie’s stay and shared photos which allowed us to enjoy our trip with full confidence that our dog was well taken care of.”
“They took very good care of my dog! They sent me many videos/pictures of my dog! I felt very safe with leaving my dog there! I would definitely rebook if I could!”
“Just got back from a week's vacation. Always a pleasure using Robert as our sitter. He's amazing as always! We received daily updates and pictures. I can tell from the pictures Hershey was quite happy. I highly recommend Bob as a dog sitter!”
“Grachel and her husband, Byron are very nice couple! My dog Bogo is very shy to a stranger, but they have way to let Bogo feel safe and secure, Bogo love them to pet him and play with him especially their dog, Lucy Liu she’s a very friendly dog get along with Bogo instantly the day we went over Rachel’s house meet and greet before the day we drop off our Bogo.”
“Collette is all we and (Lucca) hoped for when we selected Collette from Rover. We had clear communications, on-time appointments, daily updates on our dog, and as a bonus, similar senses of humor. Lucca came home to us a happy pup and we did not worry while we were away.”
“Sarah is amazing! She has taken Kaiser in twice now while we’ve been out of town and he has such a good time and well taken cared of. She consistently provides updates and pictures which is really nice too. I would highly recommend Sarah for watching your pup!”
“Julia did great with our senior dog Bo! She was responsive and sent pictures throughout the stay. Since she is a vet tech, Bo was in great hands during his stay. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Ainla is such a sweet person. From the minute our family met her we felt comfortable and knew she was the right pet sitter. During our pups stay Ainla sent pictures and sent updates to us. We did not worry at all. She answered all our questions and really went above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone and we will call her again.”
“Nilanie is an absolute gem! She's sweet, patient, and so good with our cats. From our very first meeting, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our babies in her care. Highly recommend her to any pet parent looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”
“Richard was a great dog sitter for my puppy. He treated her with so much care and sent me updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone for my trip. I could tell how much my dog enjoyed staying him. I will definitely rebook with Richard again.”
“Franceska & Daniel were awesome sitters! They were very good at communicating and Chop took a liking to them very quick. I was very happy with knowing Chop always had company and not just in a cage, that left me comfort to continue to book with them especially because they treated chop as if he were their own and was just as happy caring for him.”
About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“This was my first time using Rover, and Gabriella was amazing! She sent me updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats seemed very happy and comfortable at her place, and it was clear they were well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Titus took great care of my dog while I was away! My dog can get scared easily, but Titus is very patient and great with pets! He is definitely an animal lover. Would book again 10/10”
“Andrew was amazing with Umphrey. I asked that my dog be a solo stay and Andrew was happy to accommodate the request, putting me and Umphrey at ease during the stay. Drop off/pick up was smooth and I received daily pictures and videos to stay updated on how Umph was doing. Thank you!”
“Judith was easy to work with. I loved how much attention she gave my 2 fur babies. When I picked them up they didn’t seem eager to go home which is a true sign they where treated well. I will definitely use her services again. I love the fact that she gives them plenty of potty breaks. Great person to work with and she keeps you inform on how your babies are doing by photos or video.”
“Yara and her family were so friendly and Oreo fit in well with her crew. She sent pics throughout the stay and kept us updated and was extremely responsive for dropoff and pickup.”

“Took great care of my little Ralphie! She took care and kept me constantly updated with how things were going. Diligently showed up at the times I needed for Ralphie. I would certainly use Katie again should I need her to watch my cat.”
“Alexandra once again took wonderful care of our cat. When we go away, we hire her for two home visits per day. She gets in touch with us whenever she has questions, sends us photos, and records short videos for us. When we returned home, everything looked great. We warmly recommend Alexandra for pet care :-)”
“Haley did an amazing job looking after my elderly kitty while I was away for Thanksgiving. She was consistent and always made sure to send me pictures so I knew my kitty was doing okay. I would absolutely recommend Haley's services to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Amber spent several days with our kitty kats and took awesome care of them. She asked questions if she noticed anything unusual, sent us pictures, did some extra things and just went out of her way to make sure we could relax and enjoy our travels knowing everything was in great shape at home and our fur babies were content and well cared for. I highly recommend her!”
“I am so happy to have found Kelly to care for our Bubba Kitty! Kelly came out to meet Bubba and see out place and the places he likes to hang out. She was so sweet I knew he'd be in good hands! The communication was excellent and she sent adorable pictures and a great description of her visits with him! We will absolutely use her services in the future! I would recommend her to absolutely anyone! 5 stars all day long!”
“Jill took great care of my cat while I was out of town! My cat is usually very shy and takes a while to warm up to new people, but Jill had won her over by the end of the weekend.”
“Emily and Dom provide great care and are really great with my dog Frankie who can be a handful. They are reliable and send lots of photos and videos. Frankie always seems to enjoy his time with them. Highly recommend!”
About: I've cared for furry friends since I could walk. My family raised me in an environment where caring for animals was a form of education, and one I'm happy to share every day. I own a business that operates in a seasonal fashion. This affords me the opportunity to be available where most aren't. Whether that be for day visits and walks, or night time check ins. My home is great for dogs. My old boy loves company. He's very gentle. I have access to walking trails as well. I am happy to accommodate for kennel trained or non-kennel trained.
About: Hi, I’m Analia! What separates me from other pet sitters is my unique experiences with animals while working and managing in a corporate setting (a pet store). I know very well the standard of care that the pickiest of clients (and animals!) expect, and my hope is to be allowed to extend such high standards and more to any pets in need of a buddy, and facilitate your peace of mind while they’re under my watch! My love for animals is boundless, and I can assure you that your animal will come back to you feeling super loved and appreciated too :) I am a happy and enthusiastic learner and most of all very, very adaptable to your pet’s individual needs and special requirements as well as your own personal day to day requests. Currently part time with a lottttt of free time in the afternoon! I am able to make drop in visits or walks as need be. I've also worked together with my partner (very loving and a stickler for rules- your rules!) to ensure we cover any gaps in timely care. My partner would be part of the meet and greet should we need to ensure your pets are comfortable and socialized if my visits before and after work do not suffice :) It goes without saying, I will heed whatever tips you have for your pets—they’re your babies after all!!— and I will absolutely make sure their safety and well-being is paramount while in my care! Never off a leash when outside, and always with my phone handy in case of emergencies. (Knock on wood!)
About: I’ve cared for cats of all personalities for over 7 years. Friends and neighbors trust me to feed, play, and give their cats plenty of love and attention. I’m experienced with shy or independent cats, patient with kittens, and always make sure litter boxes stay clean and cozy spaces feel safe.
About: Your dog’s new best adventure awaits 🐾✨ I believe every pet deserves more than someone simply stopping by to fill their bowl. I want your pup to feel safe, loved, entertained, and cared for while you’re away. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give every pet. I take the time to learn their personality, routine, favorite activities, and individual needs so I can make their time with me feel comfortable and fun. 🐶 Puppy care: I’m happy to provide patience, potty breaks, playtime, supervision, and help maintaining your puppy’s routine. 🐾 Senior care: I’m comfortable giving extra patience and attention to older pets who may need a slower pace, more frequent potty breaks, or additional care. 💊 Medication: I’m comfortable following detailed medication instructions and keeping your pet on their normal schedule. 🎾 High-energy pups: Walks, playtime, outdoor time, and plenty of attention to help them burn off that extra energy! 💗 Shy or nervous pets: I never force interaction. I let them warm up to me at their own pace and focus on making them feel secure. 📸 Photo updates: You’ll get adorable updates so you can enjoy your trip without constantly wondering how your baby is doing. I’ll follow your care instructions carefully, respect your home, and treat your pet like family. No rushed visits, no “just checking a box”—your pet gets real attention and care. You handle your plans. I’ll handle the tail wags. 🐾💕 Hellooo wonderful fur parents, I currently work part time so I can only pet care every day from 8 AM to 3 PM. However if you need me too I am willing to call out. I treat every pet as if they were my own and follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and safe. I make sure pets have fresh water, meals on schedule, plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and affection based on their individual needs and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing reliable care, keeping them updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is happy and well cared for. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall well-being and will notify the owner immediately if I notice anything unusual. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so both pets and owners can feel confident and comfortable while they’re apart.
About: I have sweet kitty’s of my own and know how much you miss them when you’re out of town. I’m happy to care for cats of all personalities and needs. From playful and independent to extra cuddly and everything in between! I’m also comfortable handling special cases, including administering pills, creams, or injections and following specific care routines. Your kitty’s comfort and well-being always come first!
“Emily is a great pet sitter! We usually have to kennel our pets and being out of their home stresses them out, so we turned to this app for help. Emily was great, made sure one of our cats got his cancer meds and made sure both were well cared for. If you're looking for someone for pets especially kitties she's your person.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Iamonia
“Wonderful and safe accommodations for my pup, with friendly resident dogs as good company. Kate provides excellent communication to understand her canine client’s needs and keeps the human client informed throughout the day. My dog felt safe, cared for, and trusted his caregivers quickly, and looked forward to his return visits. Kate and Matthew’s teenage children are very caring and in tune with their canine guests, expanding the love and attention the dogs have access to. It is truly a loving dog-oriented home with plenty of safe activities and quiet places to meet my dog’s needs through the day.”
“Dropped dog off, Nice neigh, nice house. Mathew was personable and friendly. I know my dog enjoyed their dogs and kids. Nice report card and pictures. Plan to use again.”
About: I grew up around animals of all kinds — dogs, cats, cows, pigs, and more — so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have two spoiled pups of my own, Milly and RJ, and I treat every pet in my care like family. 🐾 I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy time outside. In the evenings, we enjoy walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog loves most. I know how important routines are for pets, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I’m dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! The dogs get plenty of opportunities throughout the day to go outside, play, explore the fenced-in yard, or relax inside with me while I work. In the evenings, we have more time for outdoor play, walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog enjoys most. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, and supervision. 🐾 I will care for your pet like they’re one of my own! 🐾 I know how important routines and comfort are for animals, so I do my best to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets in my home will receive lots of attention, love, supervision, and cuddles throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and pets are welcome to relax inside with me just like family. Treats are always given with owner permission, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions or preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.
“I was traveling and needed to someone for my furbaby to stay while we were out and about. I felt very comfortable leaving my furbaby Clyde with Sarah. Nice home with fenced yard and very sweet pooch of her own. Would definitely book again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old, so I’m very experienced with their needs and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every dog like my own. Being a student athlete has taught me responsibility, consistency, and time management. I plan my days carefully, so I always have time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I treat every pet like my own and follow their regular routine with feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also create space for crates in my apartment so pets feel safe and comfortable.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. We adopted Frankie in June 2025. He’s very dog friendly. Frankie is about 45 pounds. He is pretty energetic and can play rough so we’d do best with dogs his size or larger that match his energy and play style. We are a pretty active household. We like to spend time in the backyard and go for walks around the neighborhood or on the trails. I typically work from home so your dog won’t be alone for long. We have done a lot of training since getting Frankie. I’ve become very knowledgeable on training and dog behaviors. I am certainly no expert, but you can trust will we care for your fur baby as if they were our own. If there are behaviors or training you are working on, I will be happy to continue that during their stay. Contact me for any additional information! I primarily work from home so I have the flexibility to accommodate most needs. We tend to walk in the morning and evening with a midday potty break and play. You can trust I will follow any and all care instructions you provide for your dog. You know what’s best for them and I understand the importance of that. I will be sure to follow your typical routine so your dog is as comfortable as possible.
“Diana put all my worries to rest. She took amazing care of my senior dog! Paris came back super relaxed. Diana provided updates and I could tell she was taking good care of my Paris :) Would 100% recommend and will definitely contact her again.”
“Judith was amazing ! She was so sweet & welcoming. Dior was extremely relaxed and content with her. She sent pictures as well as FaceTime calls ❤️ When I picked Dior up I could tell the day she had was a great day !!”

About: I trained canine assistance dogs for 9 months and have over 25 years of experience. I’m very good with all types and personalities when it comes to our furry companions Working on switching my career path right now since there is a shift to corporate medicine in animal hospitals and as support staff I lost the feeling of being supported, or properly compensated myself. I recently started watching my neice from 6-4 Monday through Friday. Sometimes I will do delivery driving at night, but only if that is ok with you! I also have my medical marijuana card. Despite that review that says I agreed not to, I have never negotiated this. I’m an anxious, insomniac with cyclical vomiting syndrome. Some days I would not be ok without it🥺 I apologize if that does not work for anybody, but one must take care of themselves before they can care for others. This actually isn’t lucrative enough with my schedule. I ONLY do this because animals are my passion!!! Feel free to ask me any questions at all! I really am an open book! I have a 3/3 townhouse set up with lots of room for walks. Unfortunately there is no fence, but it is a very pet friendly environment.
“Ainla was amazing! She drove to my workplace and then dropped him off at his puppy kindergarten classes! She sent me pictures of his stay and kept me updated on his activities. Nico had a great time, came back home all ready for a nap. If you are looking for a great sitter, Ainla is the perfect choice! ”

About: I have owned or cared for my own dogs my entire life. Having lost my senior 'Stanley' last year I find myself longing for a dog's company and spirit. My own dogs have lived long lives - two for 18 years, one for 17 so I know how to give meds and care for their special needs. Stanley's petsitter recommended I try Rover - so here I am! I can come to your house, or bring your dog here to my 1/2 acre fenced in yard, with a dog door to the house and lots of time to share with your pet. I am retired and in Tallahassee or the vicinity walking or meeting up with friends. I have lots of free time to share with your pet. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard and a dog door to the house. I have a pool. I can come to your house if needed, or care for your dog here.
“Communication was great. At drop-off I truly felt my pup was in great hands. Sent pictures throughout the day to let me know how everything was going. Definitely will be a returning client.”
About: I love animals, and sit my friends pets often. I will be a great caretaker for your pets. I look forward to meeting you and your dog (or cat)! I know how hard it is to find someone reliable to take care of your pets when you're out town. I am able to visit your dog up to 2 times per day and I am home on the weekends. Please feel free to ask me any questions and I look forward to meeting ... As summer is almost upon us, I know many of you are planning vacations. If you need a house and or pet-sitter during your away time,please, write to me. I do not always use rover to conduct payments but am happy to use the site if you prefer. If you would like to contact one of my previous clients for a recommendation, please let me know and I will send you their contact information.

“I’m so grateful for Kelly! She’s helped me out twice in a last-minute pinch and was incredibly reliable, responsive, and kind. Lucy was well cared for and happy, and I had total peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“First walk with Katie and a very active and shy Lagotto! She did awesome. I love how she tried to work with him and his leash needs and practiced discernment around other dogs. Caper came back smiling and she now napping. Couldn’t ask for more and I look forward to establishing a consistent relationship with her”

About: Welcome! We’re Emily and Dominique; wives to each other and cat mommies to two our precious kitties, Frenchie & Talulah. We love all animals, especially dogs for their loyal and excitable personalities. For two years, Dom and I were in charge of watching our former roommate's dogs (who are included in our photos for your enjoyment). This included watching them for consecutive weeks spread throughout the year and being in charge of feeding, playing, walking, and administering medication or first aid. Since moving, we both realized how much we miss having the energy of dogs in our home, so we've decided to give Rover a try! We love dogs of all sizes, so no poop size is too scary for us to handle! Dom grew up with a Yorkie named Gucci, and I had a Chihuahua named Bronx for some time before he was rehomed. Dom also helped her father train German Shepard as a child, so if you need to reinforce any commands, she's got it! We're excited to open our home to your loveable pooch and provide them with a safe, fun, and enriching environment while they're away from their family. With us both working from home, either of us can tend to your pooch. It also gives us the flexibility to step away any time between meetings to play with your fur baby and give them the mental stimulation they need. We have a fully-fenced-in and sizeable backyard perfect for your fur baby to run and play in. We don't have a doggy door so outside time will always be supervised. We have two cats, but they have their own room, so if your pup prefers not to socialize with cats, we can accommodate that.
About: In my childhood I had many cats and I have now had a dog for almost 8 years! I started dog sitting about 3 years ago for my neighbors and I really enjoy it. I have taken care of their dogs while they were on vacation and have also dropped in while they were working. I have been around pets my whole life and I love them! I love going on walks and playing with them and am very passionate about animal care. I currently work part time at a bakery but my schedule is pretty flexible around that. I do school mostly online so work is the only time I wouldn’t be with the pet! I occasionally work in afternoons, sometimes in the mornings. Contact me and I can work a shcedule out for you! I am very diligent about following instructions for your pet and I am respectful of both your space and the pet! I am also very diligent about safety and will do my best to keep an eye on your pet the whole time. I will clean any messes that may be made and check locks before leaving every time. I always make it a habit to check for food, water, any potential messes, and locks every visit.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of dogs since I was a kid. I worked at a kennel previously and have experience bathing, feeding, administering medication, and walking dogs. I have a Labrador Retriever that I regularly bathe, clip his nails, and clean his ears! I also have a cat as well. I have experience caring for many other animals too! I just graduated and would love to work out house sitting, drop in visits, or walks within my schedule and responsibilities! Most weekends I am available too! I prefer drop-in visits, or to stay at your home. I have experience doing both. I am open to different things and routines, so just let me know!

Whether it’s cleaning up after them, giving medications, or spending extra time for cuddles and play, I go above and beyond to make sure every pet feels loved and cared for.
About: I have cared for animals throughout my life, from family pets in Puerto Rico to friends’ cats and dogs here in the U.S. Although I am new to Rover, I have several years of experience pet-sitting, house-sitting, and walking pets for friends and family. Over the past few years, I have regularly helped care for small and medium dogs, cats, and multi-pet households, including walking and caring for a Husky at different times over a two-year period. I am currently a proud cat dad to Mushu. I also call him Mushito and Mushín, and he is the most handsome black cat, he makes sure to remind me of that daily. I helped raise him alongside his sister, Mulan, and Mushu has also lived with other cats and even a turtle over the years. Because of this, I understand how important patience, routines, slow introductions, and calm attention can be in homes with multiple animals. I also pet sit Mulan whenever I visit Tampa. Back home in Puerto Rico, three beautiful dogs are part of my family, including two Belgian Malinois, Leila and Lyra, and a mixed-breed satita, Maya. I also grew up around animals in the Puerto Rican countryside, including chickens, sheep, pigs, cows, and horses. Because of this, caring for animals has always felt natural to me. As a young professional and professor, I understand how much consistency matters when life gets busy, especially during the summer. I will be in Tallahassee throughout the summer while teaching, and I would love to support others by offering reliable, attentive, and loving care for their pets. I am teaching part-time this summer, which gives me availability for pet care outside of my morning teaching responsibilities. I am generally available in the afternoons and evenings on weekdays, and I can offer longer check-ins or more flexible support on weekends. I understand that every pet and household has a different rhythm, so I try to be communicative and flexible when coordinating care. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, feeding, litter box care, playtime, a walk, or extra companionship while you are away, I will do my best to work with your schedule and your pet’s needs. At this time, I am not offering boarding in my own home. My services are focused on drop-in visits, dog walking, and care in the client’s home. I believe pets are most comfortable when their routines and familiar environments are respected, so I try to provide calm, consistent care that follows each owner’s instructions closely. Before caring for a pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, feeding needs, medication needs if applicable, walking habits, emergency contacts, and any boundaries or behaviors I should know about. I am attentive to details such as secure doors, leashes, gates, litter boxes, food and water, and keeping the home as I found it. I also value communication and can provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and cared for.
About: Reliable, experienced pet sitter with a soft spot for senior animals and those with medical needs. I offer feeding, overnight stays, medication administration, and light housekeeping so you can actually relax while you're away. I know how important routine is—especially for pets who thrive on structure and familiarity. Whether your pet needs a special diet, meds, or just someone to hang out with, I’m all about providing low-stress, loving care that keeps them comfortable and cared for. I work 7:45-1:30 most days, so while I have an early start, I still have plenty of time throughout the day to spend with your pets and give them all the love and attention they need! I care for pets in their own home to help maintain their routine and comfort. I’m respectful of your space and aim to keep things clean, quiet, and calm. For overnight stays, I also include light housekeeping so you return to a tidy home. Whether it’s feeding, medication, or just keeping your pet company, I focus on safety, trust, and providing low-stress, consistent care while you’re away.
About: My background as a Pre-Vet student with 400+ hours of volunteer experience in shelters and therapeutic programs helps me daily in this field . I'm calm and confident with all temperaments—skilled in easing anxious pets, entertaining energetic pups, and providing gentle care for animals of all . Animal care is my passion, and I display that dedicated, high-level attention to every pet I sit. As a college student, my schedule includes flexible breaks between classes and labs, making it easy to fit in regular drop ins, walks, and playtime. Evenings and weekends are more likely to be open for extended care and house sitting. When caring for pets in your home, safety and respect are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, and house rules while keeping your space clean and secure, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away.

About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.

She eased my worries with photos of Fraser happily hanging with them and Zai gave me regular updates. It is comforting to know we have a second home for him so maybe we will travel more!”
