“I had a great experience with Treasure. She was extremely communicative the entire time, always keeping me updated and making me feel at ease. She was also very flexible with my schedule for both drop-off and pick-up, which I really appreciated. When I needed to extend my dog’s stay by an extra day, she was more than accommodating and made the process completely stress-free. Throughout the stay, she consistently sent pictures and updates, which meant a lot to me. I will definitely be booking with her again within the next two weeks and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sit.”
“Emily & her family are hands-down the right people to leave your pups with if you need an amazing dog sitter. They are incredibly welcoming & I think my dogs probably didn’t want to even come home after their vacation at Emily’s dog resort lol! Not only is she awesome, but she’s also a Licensed Vet Tech and was able to administer one of my dogs’ medication & give her the special medical care & attention she needed. I was a nervous wreck leaving my dog with the issues she was experiencing, but after we met Emily, I felt totally comfortable leaving her in her incredibly caring and capable hands. Emily has a huge fenced in back yard with several dog pools, which one of my dogs, in particular thoroughly enjoyed! She would send us tons of professional quality photos throughout the day of our dogs living their best lives. The photos are so great that we plan on printing & framing a few! Thank you so much to Emily & family for making our time away an amazing experience for our pups & for making us feel so at ease leaving our babies in your care! We will definitely be booking with Emily in the future when we need to go away again!”
“Koda stayed for an extended visit and everything went really smoothly. I got videos regularly, which made me feel totally at ease while I was away. He clearly had a blast — especially making new dog friends. He came home happy and tired in the best way. I’d definitely book again.”
“Victoria was awesome and very sweet. She constantly gave me updates about my fur baby. Lots of pics. Pictures that made me feel that my dog felt very comfortable with her. Thank you so much Victoria. I definitely would/will be re-booking.”
“Sam was absolutely wonderful. We visited before I brought Sol over for boarding. There was a large fenced in back yard for dogs to run and play. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Sam’s care. I will continue to use Sam to care for my dog when I have to be out of town. Sam also sent NMEA pictures and text updates on Sol’s sleep-over. Sam’s the best!”
“Cristy was so lovely and took amazing care of my senior pug! She was very welcoming and flexible to my scheduling adjustments, and sent the perfect amount of photo/video updates on my boy while I was away. He normally takes a minute to adjust to a new location, but he was totally fine and trusting with Cristy. She also has the sweetest little dog, and her cat is very calm and personable!”
“We were really pleased with Kristin! She kept us updated on our pup and she was very accommodating! We will definitely recommend her to others and will use her services in the future! Thank you Kristin”
“Jack loves spending time with Lili. He is fearful around other dogs when he is with me. But when he goes to Lili’s house he is part of the dog pack and falls right in line. She has a huge yard and an even bigger heart! ❤️”
“I feel very confidence of leaving Storm with Maxine, she’s so patient, lovely and responsible. It feels so nice to have pictures of my pet every morning and afternoon. She was always sending updates of storm. I appreciate her care and love for my dog.”
“Amber is amazing with our dogs and gives daily updates. Our dogs get great exercise and all the love they need while we are away. We are always extremely grateful for the care she gives them.”
“We cannot say enough nice things about Caroline and they way she and her family interacted with our puppy during his stay. She was great at keeping us posted as to how he was doing and she sent many pictures every day which put us at ease being away from him. Will not hesitate to leave Beau with her again in the future.”
“Linda was fantastic we were getting married locally and our dog was in the ceremony she responded very quickly to arrange sitting him and we were very thankful he was well taken care of on our special day!”
“Chloe was well taken care of during her latest stay. She also loves going to daycare to see her friends. I am grateful to have found Larry and Candace to care for Chloe.”
“Bridgie and Charly had a Great stay for 7 days with Jerarlin and her pups. Charly developed an ear infection and I was able to send meds quickly via Amazon. Jerarlin administered drops and wipes daily and he felt better quickly. My pips love hanging out in the large, fenced in yard. Thanks!”
“I will never be able to tell you how much appreciation and gratitude I have for Michael. I was worried at first, being that I have two pit-mix dogs, one high energy and the other high anxiety. He was assuring and knowledgeable about being able to care for both of my babies. He also showed this through pictures and quick responses. Can you believe he is actually a licensed dog trainer? He reassured me and calmed my worries of using the boarding services for the first time. I will be contacting him again and 100% recommend him for all services on Rover! Michael, Thank you again for treating Tito and Canela like your own 🙏🏼🩵 Sincerely, Lorena & Liz”
“Emilie took such great care of Salem! She was there for four nights and we got multiple updates each day with plenty of pictures. They have a beautiful fenced in yard that Salem loved getting to zoom around in with the other dogs! Salem kept wanting to go back inside to play when I picked her up so I know she had the best time. We will most definitely be bringing Salem back to board. We knew she was in the best care and was treated like one of their own! Salem rates them a 10/10 and can’t wait to come back!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with our 2-year-old dog! We were away on a long vacation, and she kept us updated regularly with messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind. She was very accommodating to our dog’s needs, and when we returned, our dog was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. You could tell she had been in great hands. I would definitely trust Sarah again and highly recommend her!”

“Wonderful sitters. Took care of our three cats for a week. They showed up punctually, updated us with everything they did and sent us pictures every day. We highly recommend them and we couldn’t have gotten better we don’t believe.”
“Emily was amazing! She took great care of our cat and communicated so thoroughly. She was reassuring and sent tons of photos! I highly recommend Emily and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future.”
“I had an emergency hospitalization and contacted Rover. Jennifer did a great job watching my female Whippet Cinnamon 2 days in a row, playing with her, walking her, feeding her, taking her to the dog park. She took videos & pics. She did everything I asked.”
“Michelle is amazing! She is very reliable, responsible, and incredibly kind. She took great care of my cat and gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious that she truly cares about animals. I would happily trust her with my cat again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. 🐱💕”
“I couldn't be more pleased with the great job Sam did taking care of my cats for 2 weeks. He went above and beyond what was expected of him to make my cats feel loved and cared for. I highly recommend him and will definitely be hiring him again in the future next time I need a sitter”
“Katie was great with our girl Zoey! She kept in touch, sent pictures, and even brought her a toy after Zoey annihilated all of hers. Will definitely request to use Katie again on our next trip!”
“Laurie was great with our puppy even though she was a little extra than she normally is. But she took care of everything and more. Would definitely book again!”
“Candace is great. We hired her to visit our cat Kiwi once a day for 3 days. She showed up on time and sent us pictures and videos during every visit. If you need someone to take care of your pet while you are away, then I highly recommend Candace. She will care for them like they are her own. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I have 3 dogs and 2 cats at home and pet sit over the summer full time at home. I have sat for over 10 families over a few months. I am currently not working a permanent job so I am able to stay with pets for longer amounts of time. I am also more than happy to stay with pets overnight. I am flexible with care.

About: I have been around cats my whole life, and have 6 of my own currently. I’ve gained more experience with a variety of different tempered cats at my current job and when I worked at an animal shelter. I have dealt with cats who need insulin, those who are shy, and those who seem to have lots more energy than others. I absolutely adore cats and often foster young kittens when they come across my path.
About: I have over 40 years of cat ownership and caring for others cats and kittens. Rest assure when I am caring for your loved pets I will treat them like you do. Comfortable with all breeds sizes.

“Breeanna was fabulous with our puppers! Her communication was impeccable. We received updates every time she visited them, including pictures. I highly recommend Breeanna to take care of your dogs.”
About: I’ve had my cat since the 6th grade. He’s the greatest thing ever to me, and I understand how difficult it can be to find care for cats. Most people don’t see they are social creatures that need daily attention/affection. I figured I’d help other cat parents in need while I save for college.
“This young man was Godsent! Out of blue and unusual circumstances Caleb came to the rescue! At first, we thought 2 weeks needed but ended up with almost 2 months of pet services. The care and consistency he provided was beyond expectations! He is an essential to your pets needs when you leave, I promise you will be at ease knowing your fur babies are cared for at your standards.”

I would highly recommend Candace and Larry to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

About: Hi, we’re Samantha & Joel, an experienced multi‑pet caregiver team based in De Leon Springs. We’ve been caring for pets on Rover since 2017, and what started as a side job has turned into work we feel genuinely honored to do. We know handing your keys and your animals to someone else can feel vulnerable. You’re not just paying for walks, litter scoops, or food bowls; you’re choosing who your pets will rely on when you’re not there, and that choice matters to us. Our approach stays consistent and straightforward: no rotating sitters, no rushed care, no random faces. Just familiarize people with your pets so they can get to know and trust them over time. We’re exceptionally comfortable in multi‑pet homes, mixed cat‑and‑dog households, and with anxious or sensitive animals. Between training experience and years of house sitting, we’ve cared for nervous rescues, seniors who need meds, cats who prefer slow, choice‑based interactions, and small or aquatic pets with precise routines. We meet each pet where they are, using structure, enrichment, and patience to reduce stress instead of forcing them to adapt to us. Our families tend to be easygoing, communicative people who want care that’s personal and predictable, not rushed or transactional. If that sounds like you, we’d love to set up a meet-and-greet and start building a routine for your pets. Most requested services: multi‑pet house sitting and cat‑heavy homes. We’re easygoing and communicative, and we’ll always be honest about what we can safely handle. Pet care isn’t a side job for us – it’s part of our weekly rhythm. We live in De Leon Springs and build our schedule around house sitting and drop-ins, especially for families and snowbirds who travel. When we’re caring for pets, they’re our primary focus: meals and meds on time, routines followed, and daily check-ins sent to you. This lets you enjoy your plans without wondering if anything is being rushed or forgotten. We provide a calm, training-informed environment where pets feel safe, understood, and respected. With dog-training experience, we read body language, reinforce routines, and prevent stress through structure, enrichment, and patient introductions. For cats and other species, we take a slower approach. We let them come to us, build confidence at their own pace, and feel secure through consistency. We often recommend multiple drop-ins before long trips, especially for shy or anxious pets, so we’re familiar faces before you leave. Whether we’re doing drop-ins or house sitting, we always do a final check to make sure pets are secure, litter boxes/yards are safe, and everyone has settled comfortably before bed. Safety is never rushed; it’s built through trust and repetition. 🐾 Safe, consistent care designed with training knowledge and emotional comfort in mind.
About: Hi! I’m a mom and a lifelong dog lover who has grown up around dogs my entire life. I truly have a heart for dogs and believe they deserve a safe, loving, and fun environment while their owners are away. I enjoy spending time playing with them, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Your dog will be treated like part of the family, with lots of love, patience, and supervision. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I am currently working part time so I am home most of the time, have lots of space and a yard for them to roam around and have fun! I have a fenced yard, patio and of course our home for your pets to feel comfortable wherever they want to be will take great care.
“Biscuit had a great doggy day care experience! So friendly and welcoming from the second upon arrival. I was updated with the cutest photos and videos throughout the day and there is a great fenced in yard for the dogs to play. Will definitely book again!”
“Magnolia was very prompt in responding and easy to work with. She took great care of my boy for my day away. Very pleased with the details of Rocco’s day and the cute snapshots of him enjoying the big spacious yard. I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Krista is the best of the best!!! She knows my dog better than he knows himself! He is always ready and excited to see her and her furry friends. The reports I get during the day are nothing short of amazing!”

Our home is located in Southeast Deland on 2 ½ acres. Our property is a resort like experience for your dog. Your best friend will enjoy playing in one of our doggy yards. Our large play yard consists of a 2-story deck, next to our signature water feature. The waterfall and stream area provides a place to cool off and soak in the flowing water. After playtime, they can relax in the house with their choice of the couch or one of the elevated beds. All dogs need to be current on their vaccinations (including Bordetella) and flea/tick preventative. All adult dogs need to be spayed or neutered. Please send me a picture of your dog’s shot record through the rover app. For your dog’s safety, I do separate dogs while they are eating, when I am away from home and at. I only accept crate trained dogs. Overnight boarding is $37 for adult dogs and $49 for puppies. The puppy rate is charged for any dog up to 12 months old. This is for a 24-hour period. There will be an additional day care fee of $31 for adult dogs and $37 for puppies for pick up day if pick up is later than the drop off time. Example - drop off at 9:00 am on drop off day and pick up later than 9:00 am on pick up day. Holiday rates for boarding are $44 for adult dogs and $56 for puppies. An additional daycare fee of $31 if pick up time is later than drop off time for adult dogs and $49 for puppies. There is no discount for additional dogs.

Any stay that is during a holiday is charged at the holiday rate for the entire stay. Get to know me before you contact me... I am a friendly, down to earth person that LOVES dogs I will provide quality and loving care for your furbaby! Hi, my name is Kathy Smith. I am originally from Pennsylvania and moved to Florida in 1981 when I enrolled in Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I met a Florida boy and never left Florida. We got married in 1985 and started our family. We raised 2 boys and now our furbabies are our at-home kids 😊 My husband and I have always been animal lovers and at one time had quite a “farm” going with horses, a pot-bellied pig, goat, cats and, of course, many dogs. After going "furbaby-less" for a few years, in 2018, we brought home our first Siberian husky, Rusty, a chocolate red, wooly. Well, huskies are like Lays potato chips...you cannot just have only one. Rusty has brought so much joy to our lives. Therefore, in 2019 we added another husky to our family. Koda, is such a unique boy. He is an Agouti and, in the beginning, it was like having a different dog every month as he went thru his color changes. Well, 3 is better than 2, right?? After being on a waiting list for 2 years, May 2021, we added Oakley to our pack. He is a black and white pie-bald. They each have their own unique personalities! Rusty is scared of my sneezes :) Koda demands belly rubs and Oakley is like a cat, sleeping on the back of the couch. My reason for becoming a dog sitter is quite simple…to provide quality, loving care for dogs while being away from their owners. A few years ago, we needed to board our boys and couldn’t find a place that we trusted to watch our “kids” while we were away. We ended up driving them to our breeder located 1 ½ hours away. We did not feel comfortable with boarding facilities located on a busy road. Our resort, country setting is the perfect location for your baby to spend vacation. For 16 years, I owned my own business, building custom water features and creating paradise one yard at a time. This required me to be away from the house every day. Now I spend everyday home with my furbabies!! I have retired from building water features and am now a full time "Dog Mom". Since, I dog sit full time, I am home with the dogs all day. We go outside to play throughout the day in our large fenced in yard. Then, relax in the house. Let me take care of your best friend! Whether it's for the day, while you work or multiple days for vacation, rest easy knowing that your dog will have the absolute best care during their stay. I will spoil your furbaby as if he/she is my own! All pups must be crate trained for their safety. Your furbaby will have free range of the house, but must be in a crate while unsupervised. From time to time, I will need to leave the house to run errands and all pups will spend some downtime napping in a crate. Overnight stays will require sleeping in a crate. We have three Siberian Huskies and know that they tend to be escape artists. Our property is completely fenced in. In addition, the doggy yards have additional fencing. Therefore, we have a double fenced yard. We take every precaution to keep all pups within the doggy yards, but, in the event that a Houdini escapes, we have a perimeter fence to contain them. For this reason, our gates stay closed at all times. When you are dropping off or picking up, we will open the gate for you to drive into the property. We offer curbside service at the front door for drop off and pick up. We are very experienced with huskies. Our boys (Rusty, Koda & Oakley) are very friendly and love dogs of all breeds and sizes. Rest assured that your furbaby will fit in and have the best vacation during their stay here.
About: We have had pets my entire life. Presently we have 2 dogs in our home. A senior dog (Walker hound/lab mix), Maximus, and a 5 year old beagle/lab mix, Luna. They love to have company!

We can accommodate crates also. The fenced in yard is available at all times. But your pet is also welcome in our house. We can use your dog beds or crates also.

We love to walk our two dogs around the neighborhood and play in the backyard while the dogs roam around., I have a fenced in yard and a designated space inside the home for animals to be. Regular outside time is given as needed as well as walks and plenty of space if any pups need separation.

“First time using a walker from here. Avery was incredibly communicative and answered all my initial questions with patience. On the second day, my little guy has a sensitive stomach and must have gotten into something because he made a mess on the floor after I left and before she got here. She told me about it and happily offered to clean it up. I'm super grateful for her and her patience. Will 100% ask her for help again in the future. Thank you Avery!”

I’m available on call 24/7 and proudly offer walking, boarding, feeding, playdates, bathing, and homemade dog food services—ensuring your pet is treated to the highest standard. Caring for animals is my passion! I have been a sitter for 6 years now and still have clients that call me first. All about trust :) When taking care of any animal I always treat them with respect and that goes for a client's home as well. If something needs attention, or if plants need watering? I'm on it!
“Caleb is absolutely wonderful and I would recommend him to everyone! He took care of our babies on a very last minute basis and was very understanding of our situation. We will definitely be booking him again!”
“Needed help with dog walking for the day while visiting family out of town. Stasia was friendly and responsive with getting everything set up. I received updates and pictures both times she walked our dog. I'll definitely use her services again when we're in town. Thanks Stasia!”
About: In my spare time I am in the kitchen creating healthy organic pet safe treats for clients. I have been working with animals since a young age, I was raised in an animal loving vet tech household. My first job was at an animal hospital, and that is the career I chose to follow. I have worked in and managed animal hospitals, shelters, dog training, doggie daycare, boarding facilities, and even as an Animal Control Officer. I started my Pet Sitting Business in 2011 officially after seeing pets at the boarding facility and hospitals I worked at being so stressed being away from home. I specialize in special needs pets with special needs and geriatric. I have worked with diabetic, blind, deaf, pets need fluid and medication administration. I of course pet sit all animals special needs or not. I have experience working with canine,feline, small animal, farm animals, and even exotics! I always communicate with pet owners to create the most ideal pet sitting schedule that is closest to their pet’s normal routine. I am a stay at home parent currently so have time while my children are at school and evenings. I come to you! Your pets are safe in their own home and where they are the most comfortable. I offer drop in visits, daily walks, and overnight care in the home.

“I had a great experience with Treasure. She was extremely communicative the entire time, always keeping me updated and making me feel at ease. She was also very flexible with my schedule for both drop-off and pick-up, which I really appreciated. When I needed to extend my dog’s stay by an extra day, she was more than accommodating and made the process completely stress-free. Throughout the stay, she consistently sent pictures and updates, which meant a lot to me. I will definitely be booking with her again within the next two weeks and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sit.”
“Our dog had a fantastic time at his 5 night stay at Leon’s. Leon sent pictures and a video throughout his stay. When we picked him up he had no signs of stress. Leon said Frankie had a good time being with the other dogs. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Emily & her family are hands-down the right people to leave your pups with if you need an amazing dog sitter. They are incredibly welcoming & I think my dogs probably didn’t want to even come home after their vacation at Emily’s dog resort lol! Not only is she awesome, but she’s also a Licensed Vet Tech and was able to administer one of my dogs’ medication & give her the special medical care & attention she needed. I was a nervous wreck leaving my dog with the issues she was experiencing, but after we met Emily, I felt totally comfortable leaving her in her incredibly caring and capable hands. Emily has a huge fenced in back yard with several dog pools, which one of my dogs, in particular thoroughly enjoyed! She would send us tons of professional quality photos throughout the day of our dogs living their best lives. The photos are so great that we plan on printing & framing a few! Thank you so much to Emily & family for making our time away an amazing experience for our pups & for making us feel so at ease leaving our babies in your care! We will definitely be booking with Emily in the future when we need to go away again!”
“Koda stayed for an extended visit and everything went really smoothly. I got videos regularly, which made me feel totally at ease while I was away. He clearly had a blast — especially making new dog friends. He came home happy and tired in the best way. I’d definitely book again.”
“I could not be happier with Krista and her service. My dogs had a blast with her. She administered all my senior dogs’ meds for me, was patient with their bathroom needs, and sent me twice daily updates. I will absolutely use her services again!”
“Sam was absolutely wonderful. We visited before I brought Sol over for boarding. There was a large fenced in back yard for dogs to run and play. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Sam’s care. I will continue to use Sam to care for my dog when I have to be out of town. Sam also sent NMEA pictures and text updates on Sol’s sleep-over. Sam’s the best!”
“Leslie and James were the absolute best! They took such great care of my sweet Charlie. He had an amazing time being taken on walks, going to the park and getting all the snuggles. They updated me throughout the day with photos of Charlie enjoying his visit, which put my mind at ease while I was away. You can tell Leslie and James truly love taking of our fur babies! I would highly recommend!”
“Cristy was so lovely and took amazing care of my senior pug! She was very welcoming and flexible to my scheduling adjustments, and sent the perfect amount of photo/video updates on my boy while I was away. He normally takes a minute to adjust to a new location, but he was totally fine and trusting with Cristy. She also has the sweetest little dog, and her cat is very calm and personable!”
“We were really pleased with Kristin! She kept us updated on our pup and she was very accommodating! We will definitely recommend her to others and will use her services in the future! Thank you Kristin”
“Jack loves spending time with Lili. He is fearful around other dogs when he is with me. But when he goes to Lili’s house he is part of the dog pack and falls right in line. She has a huge yard and an even bigger heart! ❤️”
“Linda was fantastic we were getting married locally and our dog was in the ceremony she responded very quickly to arrange sitting him and we were very thankful he was well taken care of on our special day!”
“Chloe was well taken care of during her latest stay. She also loves going to daycare to see her friends. I am grateful to have found Larry and Candace to care for Chloe.”
“Bridgie and Charly had a Great stay for 7 days with Jerarlin and her pups. Charly developed an ear infection and I was able to send meds quickly via Amazon. Jerarlin administered drops and wipes daily and he felt better quickly. My pips love hanging out in the large, fenced in yard. Thanks!”
“I will never be able to tell you how much appreciation and gratitude I have for Michael. I was worried at first, being that I have two pit-mix dogs, one high energy and the other high anxiety. He was assuring and knowledgeable about being able to care for both of my babies. He also showed this through pictures and quick responses. Can you believe he is actually a licensed dog trainer? He reassured me and calmed my worries of using the boarding services for the first time. I will be contacting him again and 100% recommend him for all services on Rover! Michael, Thank you again for treating Tito and Canela like your own 🙏🏼🩵 Sincerely, Lorena & Liz”
“Emilie took such great care of Salem! She was there for four nights and we got multiple updates each day with plenty of pictures. They have a beautiful fenced in yard that Salem loved getting to zoom around in with the other dogs! Salem kept wanting to go back inside to play when I picked her up so I know she had the best time. We will most definitely be bringing Salem back to board. We knew she was in the best care and was treated like one of their own! Salem rates them a 10/10 and can’t wait to come back!”
“Nikhol is wonderful! She is so caring with my pup! She was able to train him in ways I could not. If you want your dog in a family friendly environment, I highly recommend Nikhol. I could have not been happier!”
“My puppy absolutely enjoyed her boarding, she cried on her way home when I picked her up. Susan and her kids took great care of my puppy. She sent pictures and updates multiple times daily. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with our 2-year-old dog! We were away on a long vacation, and she kept us updated regularly with messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind. She was very accommodating to our dog’s needs, and when we returned, our dog was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. You could tell she had been in great hands. I would definitely trust Sarah again and highly recommend her!”
