About: I grew up with dogs all my life. I appreciate what they do for me. I have owned dogs of a variety of sizes Big (Labradors - Sassie and Flounder), Cocker Spaniel (Cleo), Basset Hound (Ginger), Terrier (Kush), and Pomeranian (Foxy). I learned by caring for these dogs that the most important thing is to identify each dog's individual needs by paying attention to how they are feeling and how they interact with me and the other dogs. I personalize my care for each dog. I am experienced with: - puppies as well as elder dogs and all ages in between. - administering medications as needed. - personalized feeding schedules. - personalized walking schedules and outdoors time. - crate trained or not. I am currently a stay at home wife who has plenty of time to take care of dogs up to 40 lbs. My home is pet friendly, with doorway gates to make sure that each dog has a safe place to eat and enjoy their stay at my home. My schedule is flexible and can be changed and updated on an as needed basis, I have a back yard and a safe sidewalk that is easily accessible outside my front door. My back yard has grass and a screened in porch for those days when it is comfortable for dogs to be outside.
“Nicolette and her entire fam are rockstars in the pet sitting world! They were so loving and patient w/ my Sandy. They went above and beyond to make him feel at home and a part of the family. She sent regular updates and everytime she did Sandy looked so happy. I will def use her again in the future.”

“Samantha had outstanding communication throughout the entire process. She was prompt in responding to messages and provided daily updates. I felt at ease knowing my dog was in capable and caring hands. We will deff use her again.”

“My dog daughter loves being with Angie and her husband. They take care of her as if she were her family. They allowed her to sleep with them and made her feel happy with games and walks. I would really book again and I recommend that if you want your furry ones to feel at home that you do it too. Pd. Thank you for all the photos and videos during her care.”

“Dulce and her husband were great with Biggie! Dulce showed biggie love and attention which he needs a lot of. He came home very happy, calm and well taken care of. I received daily photos and videos while away which gave me peace of mind. I would highly recommend her!”

“Jartiza & her husband her amazing. They kept in touch and my boy, Gravey, had an amazing time. I was worried he wouldn't want to come home LOL. I will most definitely be using her again!! Thank you again for taking such good care of my sweet boy.”

“1Absolutely fantastic! There's no other way to describe my experience as a first-time Rover app user with a 14 week old puppy that's never stayed a night away from home before.. Lenetta is the best. From the second she laid eyes on my puppy her level of animation and care and genuine affection for my dog was apparent. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the day to show me how his day was going. She even took him to PetSmart and bought him a special chew toy for teething puppies. Lenetta has my highest recommendation she is amazing.”

“First time we left these babies with anyone other than family-and she treated them like family!! We never worried and loved the photo updates! Would highly recommend and use Adrienne again!❤️”

“Sandra took great care of our two Shih Tzu dogs. She was very responsive and communicated frequently with pictures to let us know the girls were adapting and doing well. She has a wonderful environment with a fenced back yard just right for small dogs. Sandra made sure they were treated like we treat them at home during the day and she also helped make their night time experience as close to home-like as possible. We will definitely ask Sandra to keep them again because of her efforts to provide a safe and familiar experience for our girls😊”

“Ethan and Launa were amazing with my boy. He was so well taken care of I felt a sense of relief knowing he was in good hands. They sent updates and pictures each day, I have already asked for them in March.”

“It's my first time using Rober, I recommend Maria 100%, good communication, she sent me photos for my peace of mind and makes me feel confident that my dog is welcomed as if he were part of her family.”

“Sarah is very dog and cat savvy. She is easy to work with, great communication, and has a peaceful home. This was perfect for my +12 year old Aussie. I appreciated the daily check inscand pictures and will look forward to bringing my boy back to visit the next time we need to travel.”

“This is the 2nd time Sophia has watched my cat while I was away on a trip and she is phenomenal. She sends lots of pictures and specific updates. When I come home I can always tell my cat has been well cared for! I highly recommend booking her for your pet care needs 😊”


“Corey was phenomenal with our cats! Provided excellent pictures and care and even went above and beyond when we were concerned for one of our cats who tends to hide all the time. Cannot recommend him enough and now we feel comfortable being able to leave our animals knowing that he’s caring for them. We will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

“Sam was so kind. She took good care of our kitten Smokey! She gave her lots of attention. She would send us pictures daily of Smokey. We felt very confident in her abilities. Thank you!”

About: For 2 years I’ve took care of my neighbors dogs by letting them out, feeding them and playing with them. I love animals and I grew up in a household filled with animals. I believe a dog is a humans best friend and I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your animal! I currently work nights at publix as a grocery stock clerk. I am very flexible and will be able to let your animals out and care for them whenever you need. I would love your trust to take care of them. I take my dog milo for a walk everyday when I get home so that way he gets most of his energy out and then he will lay down and relax for a little bit before wanting to play. I feed him twice a day and give him a bath once a week.
“Elizabeth was an absolutely amazing petsitter for our cat. Having a very social kitty meant a lot of anxiety on our part leaving him for a week. Elizabeth absolutely eliminated that anxiety for us. Leo took to her right away and it was very obvious that she just has a way with animals. She took great care of him during the week and provided us with wonderful updates on him complete with adorable photos. She even reached out when our Litter Robot was giving a strange signal to make sure it was working okay. We came back to a happy and healthy little guy and I can’t thank her enough for that! We will be reaching out directly to her first in future whenever Leo needs care. Thank you, Elizabeth!”

About: Hello I’m Danielle! I love animals with all my heart I’ve always had dogs and cats my whole life. I treat every dog like my own. I pay close attention to their routines, energy levels, and comfort so they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you never have to wonder how your animal is doing. I follow instructions carefully, feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules because I know consistency matters for dogs. I would love your animals like I love my own. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me :) I’m currently employed right now and try to work around my current schedule, I only work 3 days a week so I do this as a side job. I don’t have a fence in yard but I could just walk your dog there’s plenty of space here. I do have a cat but she’s super friendly with dogs and other animals.
“I have 2 cats name Ella and Kate Spade. Taylor was wonderful. She sent me pictures everyday and reported their activities. She dropped in everyday for 2 1/2 weeks without a single problem. Definitely will use her again on my next trip.”


“We had a great experience with Andrea. She was incredibly thorough, detail-oriented, and clearly took the time to make sure everything was handled exactly how we like it. Most importantly, Suma really enjoyed her and had a great time playing. She was always prompt and communicative, sending lots of updates, photos, and messages during her visits—which I know many pet owners will really appreciate. You can tell she genuinely cares and puts in the extra effort. She’s newer to Rover, but you wouldn’t know it from the level of care and professionalism she brings. We’d absolutely book her again!”

“You simply can’t go wrong with Jennifer—she is amazing. From arriving on time for our initial meeting to caring for my precious Sammy, she went above and beyond every expectation. When our plans unexpectedly changed and I forgot to let her know her services would be needed a day earlier, Jennifer caught on immediately. With just a casual text, she recognized the situation, updated the booking on the Rover app, and seamlessly added the extra day. Her attentiveness and initiative truly impressed me. I will definitely be using Jennifer’s services again and again. Thank you!”

“Cheryl is the greatest pet sitter ever! I had to unexpectedly change my plans and she was very flexible and helped me when I needed it. My cat, Trouble, enjoys her very very much and I know he’s in very good hands!! I highly recommend her!! 😻”

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I work at a dog boarding kennel currently and have worked at the animal shelter where I cared for all of the strays and helped them try to find new homes and reunited lost pets with their families! I don’t feel a family is complete without a pet as I have always had one (or more)! They are family 💖 I work at a boarding kennel part time and am able to care for pets mornings before work for potty break and evenings after work for potty breaks and play time. Morning potty breaks and evening potty breaks and play time on my days off I ask for owners to have written instructions for the specific care for each pet so that I may make sure their pet/pets are taken care of as if their owners had never left! Routine is a big deal for pets and owners!
About: Just an all around animal lover! Patient, understanding and will lead with confidence so your dogs feel structured and safe. You can be at ease knowing that safety for your pet is my highest priority and I will treat them as my own! I work online from home and set my own schedule so I am available all week. I am available to walk your neighborhood, my neighborhood is great or I love to walk trails and beach :) I develop a relationship with each dog based on trust and an understanding of their individuality and personality. I allow dogs to be dogs within the realm of what is appropriate and they seem to appreciate my confident and casual style of leadership.

About: I've been friends with cats all my life. I even once rescued a pregnant momma cat when I was a child. afaid the shelters would terminate all of them I hide her and her babies in my closet for three months. Because of this, even the shyest of cats seek out my affection.
“Carmella was great with Yuki. She is a fearful dog so I'm always concerned with new people but Carmella put me at ease. You can tell she has a genuine love of animals. I will definitely use her again.”


“Super communicative, able to relieve all my worries when i’m away from my kitty. Appreciated yenifers constant pictures and updates being sent, as well as following guidelines to the tea. Thank you yenifer you were great!!! will definitely be rebooking”


About: I have 2 small dogs who are spoiled rotten (Dinky and Darla). I am available on the weekends mostly and able to come to your home to sit daily, overnight and to take them for a walk. My fur- babies are just like family and are treated as such. I fed and treat my babies with nutritional treats and no grains. Mostly i make my own treats and can make some especially for yours a well. I can also give baths (blow dry too) and basic grooming (brushing, trim around eyes) and I will love your babies just as my own. I work during the week so i am available after 5 pm Monday through Friday as well for walks and drop in sitting only. Weekends I am fully available for all needs! I have my pets scheduled and I plan my day around their needs. They are now seniors and love people. They are on a regular schedule. I have a fenced yard to allow to run around and my home is pet friendly with puppy pads and a crate if needed for comfort. Within a clients home, I would do what is typical for their pet.

“Katie is amazing!! She's clearly knows what she's doing and cares a lot about every dog that comes through her front door. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. My pet comes home happy and well cared for. I’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”


About: I’ve had dogs off and on since I was about 12 with all sorts of personalities due to fostering. I currently have 2 Australian Sheppards, 8 chickens and 4 cows. I work from home so I am available for many dogs needs. I am used to high energy dogs and one of my Aussies loves to play and run and run some more, so if you have an active dog they will be worn out when you get them home. I also have an older small dog in my family that is blind and deaf so I am used to that as well. I work from home and am available to take out your dogs for breaks quite a lot. I am available 24/7 unless I already have been booked. I have a large fenced in pasture that will be used for the dogs to run around and play in, my personal dogs are high energy so I can promise that most dogs will be worn out when they get home. I am also training for a half marathon in the fall so I welcome walking dogs too.
“I hesitate to leave a great review for Sarah, because she may not be able to take care of my Lexi dog, from being too busy, but to be honest I couldn't be more happy with the way she takes care of her, very happy with the service.”

About: I’ve been living with dogs my whole life and I love all kinds of pets! I have experience with all ages and sizes of dogs and cats except bottle-babies. I am a certified dog trainer and formerly worked at an animal rescue as the behavior manager. This has provided me with experience with dogs and cats of various temperaments from a variety of situations. I also offer private dog training and other pet services through my private business. My work schedule is pretty flexible so I can make time any day of the week to work with you and your pets. For dogs in boarding, I always make time throughout the day for plenty of playing, physical exercise, mental enrichment, and relaxation. I have experience with a variety of care requirements including special handling for animals of different temperaments, walking and exercising dogs with behavioral issues, preparing specialized diets, and administering medications that I am confident in applying to your pet’s needs. While boarded, each dog has their own space to sleep, eat, and otherwise relax without being bothered by other dogs in the home. This can be a crate or puppy pen depending on what is the best fit for the dog. This is also where the dogs stay while I am out of the house to prevent any incidents between dogs. During the day, the dogs have the opportunity to spend their time inside or outside. There are plenty of toys and beds inside for some playing or relaxing. Outside, they have a fenced-in acre to run, explore, and roughhouse. The dog-friendly pool will be ready for use in April 2026. It has a 8x16ft sun shelf to allow for lounging in shallow water and a ramp for easy access in and out of the deep end. It is screened in to prevent anyone from slipping in unnoticed. For days that don’t allow for much exercise outside, I have treadmills to burn energy for dogs that are comfortable with them and plenty of puzzle feeders to keep their minds busy.
“We were travelling from out-of-country and had a chance to spend the day with friends locally. We messaged Chris during the Super Bowl game for a daycare session with our two dogs the next day. They responded almost instantly. Amazing communications and very responsive. The facility is incredible. Very clean. Sheltered. A double perimeter fence. Motion activated spot lights. Our dogs were secure and we felt very comfortable leaving them there for the day. We received updates and photos throughout the day which made us happy to know our dogs were visibly relaxed and comfortable in a new environment. When we picked them up the dogs were clearly happy, tired, relaxed, and definitely appeared to be smiling! We would not hesitate to use Chris and their spouse again. Amazing people. Fantastic facility.”

“Spencer enjoys spending time with his Auntie Sam! He always greets her with a hug, kiss and a smile. I know he is in good hands and trust Sam completely. She's our go to for all things Spencer!”

“Bill and Tina are the best thing I could ever find for my Fur Baby. She suffers from separation anxiety and they give her so much love and attention while she is there.”

About: From pups to great Danes, turtles to amazon green parrots, fish and more, love them all. Cats are great but only can do drop in visits. I work from home and pets will go out supervised in the yard and walks, weather permitting( down pour rain). Letting pets out IS MY PRIORITY!! I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!
“Very Nice & Diligent Dog Sitters! They kept us updated with pics and she was good as new when we picked her up! Definitely recommend and will use again in the future if needed!”

About: Hi, I’m Taylor, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and needs! I offer boarding, walking, and house-sitting, and specialize in everything from puppy energy to senior snuggles. I’ve worked with repeat clients over the years and am comfortable handling structured routines, medication schedules, and special dietary needs. My late senior dog Jake, who passed in July 2021, taught me just how rewarding it is to give older pets the comfort and compassion they deserve. On the flip side, I’ve also fostered plenty of puppies, and currently have a 5 month old pup of my own named Spur! I know how important it is to keep them active, consistent, and safe as they grow. Cats are a big part of my care experience too – I’ve bottle-fed kittens and cared for elderly cats needing daily medications, ear drops, special foods, and that gentle, patient touch only a true cat person can give. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a long walk, a quiet cuddle session, or just keeping things calm and consistent while you’re away, I’m here to help. I treat every pet like my own, with love, attention, and respect for their unique personality and needs. I'm working from home with pet-sitting, photography, and marketing jobs! I am very flexible in terms of travel and overall availability. Early mornings, afternoons, nights - I'm your gal! I have a big yard with many in-ground leads for the dogs to play safely without escape! My other two (very kind) fur babies will keep them company while they're away from home. While we do have cats, they are very independent creatures and usually reside in one room of our home. Easy to shut off for those who don't love felines!

About: I’ve had and trained every pet from ferret to Dobermans all with great temperament . I’m very aware of body language and can handle any pet.

About: I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each dog’s needs, from energetic puppies to gentle senior companions. I have experience with basic training and administering medications. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals—I treat every dog like family, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I maintain a flexible schedule, which means I can accommodate early mornings, evenings, and weekend care as needed. This flexibility allows me to adapt to each dog’s routine, ensuring they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Got it—you can still highlight the benefit without mentioning the acreage. Here’s a clean, appealing version: I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming home environment where dogs can relax and feel comfortable. I have access to plenty of open outdoor space for fresh air and exercise, with all outdoor time closely supervised or on leash to ensure safety. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions to keep their experience consistent and stress-free. Dogs have secure areas indoors for rest, play, and feeding, and I always follow owner guidelines. My goal is to create a calm, dependable space where every dog feels at home.

About: I am an animal lover. I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life as well as goats, chickens, and an occasional bird. I’ve also rescued and/or raised squirrels, rabbits, and a raccoon. I am retired so I have plenty of time to care for your babies. My baby (chihuahua) has epilepsy so I’m familiar with sticking to routines and administering oral medication. I am really quite a home body. I do a lot of crocheting. The only time that is not negotiable is the first and third Saturday 7:00am to 2:00pm of each month when I try to sell my crochet items at the farmers market. Other than those few hours I’m available to care for your babies needs. I’m trustworthy and clean. I will follow your wishes. I can crate your pet or sleep with it. I currently sleep with my chihuahua and my cat. I love to cuddle with them. My dogs are on a schedule for their medications so I would do the same for babies.
“We are repeat customers for daytime dog walks. Liz is reliable, timely and communicates well. Our pup seems to really love her and even our ultra shy cat, too. Thanks for the snapshots and updates about your walks, Liz!”

About: I have had dogs most of my life and volunteered at a large shelter back in St. Louis for more than 10 yrs. I walked dogs, took them on enrichment trips, fostered them and helped at the shelter by just cleaning and doing laundry. I loved all the different dog personalities and tried to do anything that would make their life better. I would love to take care of dogs now that I'm retired and will also be volunteering at the local shelter here I'm retired and my dog recently passed so I'm craving dog time. With no dog i now have more time to dog walk I am available to dog sit or walk but live in a small rv so dog boarding might be tricky though I'm willing to try. I live in a dog friendly park that has a nice trail and isn't very crowded

About: Hello I’m Danielle! I love animals with all my heart I’ve always had dogs and cats my whole life. I treat every dog like my own. I pay close attention to their routines, energy levels, and comfort so they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you never have to wonder how your animal is doing. I follow instructions carefully, feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules because I know consistency matters for dogs. I would love your animals like I love my own. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me :) I’m currently employed right now and try to work around my current schedule, I only work 3 days a week so I do this as a side job. I don’t have a fence in yard but I could just walk your dog there’s plenty of space here. I do have a cat but she’s super friendly with dogs and other animals.
About: From pups to great Danes, turtles to amazon green parrots, fish and more, love them all. Cats are great but only can do drop in visits. I work from home and pets will go out supervised in the yard and walks, weather permitting( down pour rain). Letting pets out IS MY PRIORITY!! I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!

I am available to walk your neighborhood, my neighborhood is great or I love to walk trails and beach :) I develop a relationship with each dog based on trust and an understanding of their individuality and personality. I allow dogs to be dogs within the realm of what is appropriate and they seem to appreciate my confident and casual style of leadership.

“1Absolutely fantastic! There's no other way to describe my experience as a first-time Rover app user with a 14 week old puppy that's never stayed a night away from home before.. Lenetta is the best. From the second she laid eyes on my puppy her level of animation and care and genuine affection for my dog was apparent. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the day to show me how his day was going. She even took him to PetSmart and bought him a special chew toy for teething puppies. Lenetta has my highest recommendation she is amazing.”

My pups came home tired and happy- would definitely recommend!”
