I will be bringing Emme back!”
“Viji was incredibly communicative and provided frequent updates with pictures, which I really appreciated. When we picked up our dog, he seemed a bit sad, which tells me he truly enjoyed his stay and the companionship of the sitter's little kid. It’s comforting to know he had such a good time! Highly recommend Viji!”

Will definitely reach out again if I leave town and need a sitter!”

She cared for our two cats, including one needing twice daily insulin injections, with total skill, compassion, and professionalism. She went above and beyond every step of the way, kept us reassured with thoughtful updates, and treated our pets like her own. If you want someone you can truly trust with your pets and your home, Dawn is the one. Five stars doesn’t feel like enough! Dawn made our time away, completely stress free and we are beyond thankful for her!”
About: I’ve always been a huge cat lover and have experience caring for different breeds and personalities, including Persians, Maine Coons, and tabbies. I’m comfortable with everything from playful, social cats to shy or independent ones who need a little extra patience. I’ve cared for cats for family, friends, and previous employers, and I’m happy to help with feeding, litter boxes, playtime, cuddles, and keeping their normal routine while you’re away. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone!
“Alexa took great care of my cats and dog. Kept everything in order, sent me pics everyday and was extremely prompt with communication. Would definitely use her again next time.”

“Lorraine was wonderful with our cat Monica! She was flexible on the drop off time since we were moving from another state the same day that we were dropping our cat off for care.

“Brianna kept us informed on a daily basis for our three cats. It was good to see they were in the care of someone who really cares about animals! We will definitely be using her again.”
“Christa is amazing with my cats! She takes such great care of them, and they love her! Her communication is awesome, she sends photos every day, and we never have to worry when we’re away.”
About: I believe the best people are cat people, and it's because they understand boundaries and consent. That's all a cat wants - to be treated like royalty and to make the rules. They want a clean litter box and control over the room. That's okay with me and I'm happy to play by their detailed instructions.
“I can't say enough about this dynamic duo! From the very first "meet and greet" with myself and my senior 17 year old pitbull, it was clear to me that my pup would be in GREAT hands. I went out of town and I never felt as at ease knowing that BellaMarie was going to be well looked after, as I had knowing that she was being loved and cared for in the manner I would have. I received videos of her enjoying yard time and play time along with photos. I hands down will be rebooking with Kimberly and Jarred. I would recommend them to anyone who needs care for their animal(s).”

They took alot of time listening to my concerns/instructions and followed them carefully. Thank you guys for loving on and caring for my baby.”
“Our John absolutely loves Maria, and your pup would be lucky to have her as a sitter! Whether it’s for a quick date night or a long weekend away, Maria is always there with great communication, reliability, and so much love for our guy. We always feel at ease knowing he’s in such good hands.”

About: Hi, we’re Anna and Nick, your neighbors and fellow dog lovers. We have a goldendoodle and three dachshund who love having friends over. They’re all very social and sweet with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Please check out their pet profiles for more info. We offer daycare and overnight stays at our house. Nick and I both work from home and have a flex scheduled. We have plenty of time to give the pups lots of love and attention throughout the day. No kids. We give lots of attention and outside time. Our home is a calm, dog-focused environment. We have a large fenced yard and are outside a lot. We have a pool. While our dogs don’t swim, many of our friends’ dogs love a dip. We don’t mind! We love it. And we won’t leave them unattended.
“Ryan & Maria were super lovely, calm, caring, gracious. We felt really good leaving Bella with them for the afternoon. They are conveniently located close to Mayo, and it was a gift to be able to drop Bella off, get to our appointment at Mayo and then pick her back up … knowing she was in quiet space with caring people. They also send plenty of photos and videos which were nice to receive too. Highly recommend this wonderful couple for your pet’s well-being.”

From the time we first met them and throughout the time Kiki was with them, the communication and care was top notch. We look forward to using them again!" - Stephanie L. (9/18/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer thank you so much for always taking care of my boy, Luke. Thank you, thank you! I am so happy I found you and always recommend you." - Dawn F (9/9/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer was great with our pets, Manning (dog) and Poe (cat). They were so responsive. They sent us pictures the entire time and cute little notes. I felt confident that they were being well cared for. Thank you so much." - Vicki H. (8/29/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer was fantastic. They took such loving care of our sweet girl (Penny) and we so appreciated the frequent photo check-ins. Thank you so much again for giving us such peace of mind while we were out of town!" - Caitlin C. (8/28/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Teddy had his first daycare experience and was there all day. He had a blast!

(12/18/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I felt really good about leaving my 11-year-old Benny boy with Jennifer after spending an hour visit with them prior to dropping him off. They are clearly dog (animal) people…… and took him into their home as one of theirs. What more could I ask for?" - Nancy B. (12/11/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Superb experience. I trust only a handful of people on Earth with my pets — I now fully trust Jennifer. They took care of my beloved, very elderly cats (Sushi & Libby) as if they were their own, allowing me to take one of my first real vacations in years. ❤️" - Barbara C. (10/24/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This was my first time leaving Winifred with someone other than family, so I was a bit nervous. But Jennifer was great. They sent me updates and pictures everyday so that really comforted me. Winnie had a wonderful time; she loved playing with the other dogs and felt like she was at home. Would definitely recommend.

Will utilize them in again in the future!! Thank you so much your caring, kindness and compassion!!" - Allison W. (8/7/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer is an awesome care taker. I left my Yorkie, Luke, with them for over two weeks, which was the first time in a year he was away from my family. He was so well cared for and loved. He learned so much when staying with them and their crew. It was his first learning experience being with other dogs, becoming part of the pack. They continuously kept me up to date with pictures and videos. I feel so grateful to have found them and I know Luke does too. We will continue to use their services in the future. Thank you both for your kindness! I feel incredibly lucky to have found you!" - Dawn F. (7/20/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "On first meeting Jennifer we knew she would look after our boy Lupin extremely well. She’s a very caring person who absolutely loves animals and Lupin took to her straight away which made us feel very confident that he would be happy in her care. Jennifer kept up his grooming routine (being a bearded collie he needs regular grooming) and while we were away she sent us regular updates including pictures which we very much appreciated and found very reassuring. Communication was very good before-hand and during our sit. On our return the house was spotless and Lupin was very happy. It was also lovely to meet Jennifer’s sweet little companion pup. She is the most adorable little dog who is as good as gold and was great company for Lupin. I would not hesitate to recommend Jennifer and her little companion. Thank you Jennifer - you're a 5* house sitter!" - Jeanette S. of Villefagnan, France (10/3/2022, via Trusted Housesitters) NOTE: Please refer to my previous "Hidden Gem Pet Care" Rover profile to read thru all of the 5-star reviews from our very happy 2022-2025 clients: https://www.rover.com/members/jason-s-hidden-gem-pet-care/ Pet care isn't squeezed into my day — it is my day. As a Luxury Travel Advisor, I work 100% remotely from home, which means I'm here with your furbaby around the clock. My own senior pup, Mandy 🐶 absolutely lights up when a new friend arrives — she loves, loves, loves other dogs and helps new guests settle in fast. Between my remote schedule and Mandy's welcoming personality, your pet gets consistent attention, companionship and routine from morning to night. Home is a gated condo community with beautifully landscaped grounds and plenty of green lawn space — a safe, secure setting for walks and sniff-and-explore time. Mandy 🐶 and I love taking our guests out to enjoy the grounds together — always on a secure harness for safety. Indoors, your furbaby becomes part of our everyday routine rather than being left to their own devices. Your pup is welcome on the couch, my queen bed, the numerous dog beds scattered around the house or wherever they're most comfortable. Feedings, medications, and playtime all happen on your pup's usual schedule.
“Andrew and Katlyn are my go to! I’m updated with photos and notes throughout my dogs stay. He gets spoiled with love just as if he were home. I appreciate these caregivers very much. They accepted my last minute request. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: Hi, I'm Lydia, and I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether you're at work, on vacation, or just need an extra helping hand, you can count on me to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I've cared for and fostered dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior pets. Through that experience, I've become comfortable administering medications, caring for anxious or reactive pets, and adapting to each pet's unique personality, routine, and energy level. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, chasing toys, snuggling on the couch, or simply having a calm companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm also a registered nurse, so providing attentive care, following detailed instructions, and staying calm in unexpected situations are second nature to me. I work three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several full days to dedicate to pet care, including walks, runs, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. My goal is simple: to care for your pet as if they were my own while giving you complete peace of mind. During every visit, I'll send detailed updates along with plenty of photos, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. I pride myself on being punctual, communicative, and reliable, and I would be honored to earn your trust. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule that will allow me to take some last minute requests! I work 3-12 hour shifts a week which provides me with a lot of free days! Need something outside my listed availability? Reach out! While I keep my calendar as accurate as possible, I may be able to accommodate special requests. I will care for your pet like they were my own! I promise to be professional and courteous while entering your space to care for your pet if I'm dropping in. If they are staying with me-I also have a beautiful back yard overlooking a pond for some good supervised sun bathing, fetch, or good sniffs.
“This family is amazing at what they do. They are quick to respond to your booking request and they have accommodated me on several occasions when my schedule has changed. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while I’m in Florida for the holidays. They send soooo many pictures and videos. It’s wonderful!”
“Great sitter! Booked Jordan for a daytime daycare session while we were in the area. She was very communicative, professional, and great with our two energetic dogs. She even gave us great directions for navigating the area while we were in town. Would definitely book again!”
“Katya was great! She stayed in contact and progress updates on how Smokey was doing! Smokey came home exhausted from all the fun and in great shape. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Carolyn took great care of my Dustin boy!! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day! Will definitely be using her again to watch my sweet boy. Thank you!”
“Wendy was awesome! Her place was perfect for my two dogs. Had a nice fenced back yard, lots of toys and safe neighborhood. She sent daily updates with lots of pics! Which we really liked. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
“Patty was fantastic in caring for my miniature daschund Richard. Patty knows the breed well and was very quick in understanding Richards quirks. She was patient and kind with him and I could see that he loved spending time with her because he would run to her door in the morning to see her. I could not have been happier with Patty, she is amazing. Thank you Patty.”
About: I have taken care of pets for friends and family for quite some time now. Also I have worked for an emergency vet, which provided some useful skills and knowledge to ensure safe pet care. From fur babies to seniors I am here for your fur children’s needs when you can’t be.🤗 I’m currently starting my own business, doing house cleaning in the mornings as well as bartending some nights. My schedule is flexible according to what you may need. I come for a meet and greet to make sure of our compatibility, creating some familiarity. Taking pets for walks as needed, I will also wash them if you like/if needed. I usually ask for a list of typical daily routine and preferred feeding methods etc. for a solid guideline and go from there.
About: I have always grown up and been around dogs and cats. I grew up with big dog breeds and they will always hold my heart, but I currently have a small dog who I love like a human child haha. I’ve been around and helped train puppies and also have experience with older doggies. I accept and love all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. I have a full time remote job , so I am always home! I may go to the gym for an hour but I am never more than 20 minutes away from my house. I have time during my day for long walks and even longer cuddle sessions. I have a larger apartment so accommodate any size doggo and my own small pup to offer some company to yours! I also love to be outside and go on walks so there is no shortage of outside time.
“For parents of a shy and anxious dog, finding daycare is next to impossible. Marissa, her pups and family have been a blessing to our dog (and us)! We worry not at all with Zoey in Marisa's care. We couldn't be more grateful!”

About: We are a family of 3 people who really want to add a dog as a family member but unable to take on the financial responsibility at this time so this might be the next best thing, just genuine love for your pets, no special skills at this time. Currently work from home and have the ability to be very present with your dog. My 2 children have been reminding me that I promised them a dog by the time my son turns 10 and my daughter is 8. I'm just not ready to find my forever dog yet- My son is now 11 and daughter is ready to turn 9 right after Christmas and we have loved having your dogs as a part of our family while you're away! In my home, treating them like our own part of the family. We are a playful family and we like getting out of the house on walks and do things like Riverside Arts Market and the beach. In your home, will follow your guidelines and be just as loving and attentive
About: Hi everyone! My name is Alyssa. 🤗 What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet like family. I’m patient, attentive, adaptable, and especially comfortable with senior pets, anxious animals, and pets who need extra patience or specialized care. I have personal experience caring for a senior cat with diabetes, which has taught me how important consistency, observation, and attention to detail are when caring for an aging pet or one with additional needs. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding routines, medication instructions, and individualized care plans. I’m also very calm and capable in a crisis. If something unexpected happens, I don’t panic. I assess the situation, follow the appropriate steps, communicate with the owner, and make sure the pet’s safety comes first. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to stay level-headed when you’re not there. Above all, I pay attention to the little things: changes in appetite, bathroom habits, energy, behavior, and overall mood. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their person is away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never feel out of the loop. 🐾💛⭐️🤗✨ As an actress and social media content creator, my schedule is very flexible and currently quite open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to work my days around their routines, whether that means walks, feedings, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and having a flexible schedule means I’m not constantly rushing off to another commitment. Your pet can get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Basically, I’m happy to let your pet be my boss. 😂🐾 Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In my home, I give pets time to become familiar with the surroundings and neighborhood rather than overwhelming them. I pay close attention to their stress levels, body language, appetite, energy, and behavior so I can adjust their care to what they’re communicating. When house sitting, I treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. Along with caring for your pets, I’m happy to handle everyday things like tending to gardens, taking out the trash, doing dishes, bringing in mail, and keeping the home tidy. I want you to come home to happy pets and a home that feels just as you left it. 🐾
“We are so grateful to have had Alexandra take care of our Mucho! She went above and beyond what we expected and truly treated him with so much care and attention. She even took the extra time to clean his crate and make sure everything around him was clean and comfortable. What we appreciated the most were her regular updates. Knowing how Mucho was doing throughout our trip gave us so much peace of mind. Alexandra was very attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, and we could tell that she was putting in extra effort to make sure he was happy and well taken care of. We highly recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. She exceeded our expectations, and we would absolutely love to have her care for Mucho again in the future! Thank you so much, Alexandra, for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾❤️”

If they are staying with me-I also have a beautiful back yard overlooking a pond for some good supervised sun bathing, fetch, or good sniffs.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also previously worked at an animal hospital, which gave me valuable hands-on experience around pets with different personalities, ages, and care needs. I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pets and entering your home. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and will treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and drop-in visits while keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m also very comfortable with cats and understand that sometimes earning their trust means giving them a little extra patience and space! I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. 🐶🐱❤️
“Elaine is amazing with our Coco! We are so thrilled to have found her. She goes above and beyond on rainy days with our girl making sure her paws are clean when she comes inside. And that she has her rain coat on.”
“Sharon was great! This was our first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous, but she was so communicative and took good care of our pup while we traveled. We’ll definitely use Rover and request her again.”
“Alex is the best dog walker ever. She provided plenty of exercise for Yoyo and even helped to fix my lock. I had some issue with my smart lock before and she made sure my lock is fixed and door is securely locked before she left. She is kind, sweet and patient. Definitely will use her again.”
“Dawn always answers so quickly and is very informative and helpful after every visit, even giving love to my kitties on a dog visit & filling up the water bowl after a walk :) much appreciated”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and have experience caring for all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, ducks, turtles, and more. Growing up, I was lucky enough to have many different breeds and personalities in my life, including Pugs, Bulldogs, Labs, Corgis, Persian cats, Maine Coons, and tabbies. I’m the kind of person who will stop on the side of the road to help an animal in need, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve pet-sat for family, friends, previous employers, and their families, and I’m comfortable caring for animals with different personalities, routines, and needs. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I’m currently attending college online while working full-time, so I’m looking for pet-sitting opportunities that I can fit around my schedule. I’m flexible and open to overnight stays and weekend care, and I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pets receive the attention, care, and love they’re used to while you’re away. When you’re away, I’ll make sure your pets and home are well cared for and kept on their normal routine. I’ll provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or pet areas, give plenty of attention and playtime, and follow any specific instructions you leave for your pets. For dogs, I’m happy to take them on walks, get some exercise in, or even take them to a nearby dog-friendly park for some extra fun. For your home, I’ll keep things clean and tidy, bring in mail and packages, take out trash when needed, water plants, and make sure everything is secure. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care I would want someone to give my own, while making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Jen just started walking my dog & I am so happy! She came to do a meet & greet beforehand & was very professional & good with my Daisy. She sent pictures of her during the walk & made sure my house was locked before leaving. I came home to a very happy dog. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m Lauren — an active, outdoorsy person who recently traded the corporate grind for a little more freedom, and I’m excited to spend some of that time with your dog or cat! I grew up with dogs my entire life and have years of experience pet sitting for friends and coworkers. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely love being around animals. I especially enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures, but I’m equally happy hanging out with a pup who just wants some company. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, communicate throughout the visit, and send plenty of photos and updates so you know your pup is happy and well cared for. I’ve also put in time sitting cats - including some high-maintenance felines that needed special medication administered. You can trust me to follow instructions closely! I have a very flexible schedule right now while I am pursuing entrepreneurial ventures. I’d love to use dog sitting as a regular part of my schedule to get outside and keep moving - recurring bookings welcomed! 😊 I am meticulous and am always sure to completely close and secure all gates, doors, exits, etc. I’ll always keep my eye on your pet to keep them safe and comfortable.
About: Every animal has a unique personality. During our time together, I love discovering shared interests with your pets so we both have a genuinely fun experience. Animals are exceptionally intuitive and pick up on our energies, which is why I always bring my calmest, happiest, and most present self to every interaction. I own a pet care business called George Sits LLC in Jacksonville, and I am looking to fill my books! I would leave only to stop in on other pets nearby who may also be in my care. I have multiple years working and volunteering at boarding facilities and shelters, and I have never been petless myself. Growing up, we had dogs, chickens, snakes, guinea pigs, geckos, and so so so many cats. My Approach to Care For Dogs: Built entirely on positive reinforcement, encouragement, and active engagement. For Cats: Built on respect and consent. I understand that royalty makes the rules, and I'm happy to follow whatever boundaries your cat sets for me. Earning Your Trust I understand that handing over the keys to your home and leaving your sweet companion in someone else's hands requires immense trust. Earning and maintaining that trust is my #1 priority. That is why I offer a complimentary Meet & Greet for all new clients, giving us a chance to connect and make sure we’re a perfect fit before you book.
About: From a young age my grandma volunteered me to help look after our neighbors pets. But it never felt like a chore. I mean, is there any better job? I'd start with one house, & word of mouth had me sitting for a handful of neighbors! Overnight as well. Sitting was always for dogs, & I'm already a long time cat owner, so I'm the best of both worlds! I work part time as my main job, so I can pop in or stay overnight to look after your pets no problem! Whenever you need me, I'm there! I'm very respectful of my clients homes. I'll always leave it how it was found. Your pet will get all the care they desire, & the care you demand.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities for 30 years. I make sure every furry friend feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

I’ll treat your dog like family — with plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles.

Highly recommend Viji!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for over 30 years. I love all breeds, temperaments and ages from puppies to seniors. I have a very large house and big, fenced back yard that is ready for games of catch, relaxing, running and canine fun. I love to go on dog walks and play with my doggie guests.

“As a Rover sitter it is hard to find another sitter who is up to my high standards but...Cynthia was amazing!! As soon as we met her we felt extremely welcomed. She's probably the only sitter who I hired who followed my instructions exactly and I had absolutely zero worry about my pups. She sent us plenty of pictures and her love her for my dogs was very obvious. At her current rates at time of booking she was an absolute bargain. I can't recommend her enough! She is absolutely a dog lover!! I'm going to send her my clients if I'm unavailable and I trust she will give them the same love. Thank you so much Cynthia!! ❤️🐕❤️🐕❤️🐕”
“Barbara and Mike were great on a last-minute’s notice. They have a lovely backyard that is a pup’s paradise. Barbara is very quick to respond, too! Mocha seemed to feel very comfortable with them, and we would definitely call them again.”
“Hannah is soo wonderful and accommodating! Most importantly, I could tell by all the pictures that my dog was very happy while boarding with her. Extremely thankful we found Hannah and highly recommend her”
