Matt and Nicole took the best care of my babies Russ and Delilah especially since I was in a very hectic time of my life. They loved my dogs as if they were their own. They got them personalized name tags and made Delilah a beautiful necklace with her name on it. They gave them baths, took them swimming, and walked them all the time. They stayed in contact and set my mind at ease knowing they were in the best hands possible. I would highly recommend Matt and Nicole to care for your furbabies because they really do treat them like family.

This was our first time using James’s for our fur babies and both Winston and Bella just fell into a routine and made themselves right at home! He did a great job entertaining both of our dogs at the same time and loving them equally. They have different foods, and he was able to take care of each of them as they needed to be taken care of. Also, he mentioned that he would keep in touch and send pictures. He absolutely did a great job letting us know how our babies were doing even within a couple hours of dropping them off, and letting us see that they were getting the love and attention they needed. I highly recommend him, and we will use him again in the future!

Maya was an immediate fit for us. We were able to visit with our Bebe ahead of time & were assured the care would be perfect. Maya kept Bebe for 4 days and sent pictures daily to update us on her daily meals & activity. We had peace of mind while traveling knowing our baby was being very well cared for & would certainly book again with Maya.

If you're on the fence about booking with Cherisse, please read this. I'm a helicopter dog owner, my dogs are spoiled rotten and I rarely let them out of my care unless my normal dog sitter of 10 years can watch them. Due to her life changes, I found myself without a dog sitter and 2 days to find someone else so I took a shot on Rover and with Cherisse. We had a birth in the family we wanted to be at and knowing my three dogs were so well taken care of and comfortable with Cherisse helped us not stress about them and we were fully present with our family. Her home is beautiful and spotless, the daily updates were great and their care was wonderful. I can't thank her enough and will absolutely be booking her in the future.

Kylee was extremely responsive, warm, and kind both through the app and in person. I could tell from just a few minutes of conversation that she is a cat lover. I tend to be an anxious/neurotic pet owner, which makes it hard for me to trust sitters, but Kylee was great! After almost a full week of drop-ins with her, I came home to my cat who was just as happy and healthy as ever.

Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)

I was so nervous using River for the first time to watch our kitties as I’m a very nervous cat mom, Bethany came to meet me before our first visit and I knew her genuine sweetest was going to be a great fit. She showed up every day on time for our cats feedings and kept their water bowl and liter fresh. She sent so many pictures while we were away which I looked forward to every day on our trip. I felt at ease while we were away the entire time not once did I need to worry. If I could give Bethany 1000 stars I would, truly our cats are our babies and they were taken so good care of. Will definitely be using Bethany again when we’re away!

About: When I was 12 a stray Tom adopted us. My mother and I would bandage him after his escapades. I have since then taken care of feral cats and helped get them spayed and neutered. I have also dropped in on the cats of my friends when they go out of town to give some human stimulation and make sure they have food and water.

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

DeDe is amazing. We got left with no Petsitter the day before we were to leave. We found DeDe and she came to do a meet in greet in 30 minutes. We instantly felt comfortable with her and felt confident leaving our kitties care in her hands. She communicated daily with an update on the cats and many photos to show us her fabulous work (and the cats). We were so impressed with how clean she made the food, water and litter areas! We have 12 cats and they make a lot of mess. DeDe didn’t mind at all and enjoyed the cats even through all the messes. We highly recommend DeDe and will definitely use her again in the future.

About: I am a 47 year old male, whose Air Force duties were crew chief for F-22 fighter jets, serving overseas during the Iraq war. I have top secret security clearance and many missions under my belt. My passion now is animals. I am currently an SPCA foster parent to both dogs and cats. No job is too big or too small when caring for your pet. Whether they have medical needs or just need a happy face to lick, I can take care of it all. I am available day or night with total peace of mind everything will be cared for. I live in South Lakeland. I am retired and available for boarding, client home boarding and care, pet walks and visits. I'm available any day and time. I will answer all requests as soon as I see them. I live alone in a small and safe community, with little traffic, which makes it safe for walks. I have a unfenced yard but I take great care allowing the dog to have freedom in the yard while being on a leash. I have access to a fenced in dog "play" area in my community. My home is non-smoking, cozy, and quiet. I keep the home air cool to provide comfort for the animals. I maintain constant contact with your loved one to know they are safe and happy. I will provide daily texts and photos of the pet, to the owner, to show they are safe and happy.

With personalized attention and a deep understanding of canine needs, I do attempt to house train with the time I have with every furry friend I receive, giving you peace of mind knowing your dog is in the best hands. I am a college student, getting my degree in digital design. Due to myself being an art major I have more time than other students and will be able to devote more time to my passion and that’s working and caring for animals. I live in a gated apartment complex, therefore yard wise is open but limited. My apartment has more than enough space to play, sleep, and simply enjoy the presence of every furry friend.

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

About: BEST CARE ANYWHERE! My home is calm and quiet, all dogs do great with me. My back yard is fully fenced; my back door opens into that backyard. My front doors have two barriers you can see that, in one of the photos on my profile. Customized meals for every dog. Home and dog areas sanitized daily. March 2026....10 years with Rover I have over 50 years professional experience caring for dogs, I am now retired. I have worked in the boarding, grooming, training and vet tech fields. YOUR DOG MUST BE FRIENDLY WITH OTHER DOGS NO BULLY BREEDS NO Dogs over 14yo NO drops offs or pickups after 6pm Your dog must be on flea preventive. I am retired and need to feel I am contributing to society in some small way. I love animals and they love me, so this is a good fit for me. I can care for dogs, cats, birds, horses, cattle, goats, chickens, rabbits, snakes, reptiles, raccoons and some small wildlife (depending on their needs) in their home or mine!

Being our first time little our little pups for the first time, we were quite nervous and worried about leaving them for the day in a new environment. We were very quickly put as easy with Karla's amazing, calm and caring nature and obvious genuine love of animals. Our dogs took to her straight away and not only were ok for the day, but had an associate blast with Karla and her little Coco. She sent us updates, photos and videos that made us feel beyond at ease, but so happy that our little ones were having a great time! ☺️ We are delighted to have Karla as an amazing person to look after our pooches at times we need to be away in the future as we know they will have the best care and it actually be an enjoyable, fun adventure for them! Cannot recommend and thank Karla enough for her brilliant care and genuine love and gift she has for animals ☺️?

About: I’ve had pets to care for in my life for more years than I haven’t! From kitty liters being born on my porch to pups with epilepsy, I’ve seen & handled it all! I grew up with a dad who had a special interest in dogs & dog training (does the name Cesar Millan mean anything to you 😏) & we ALWAYS had pets in the house. I’ve cared for American Bulldogs, pugs, adult cats & kitty litters! (And chickens but I don’t think those are allowed in my apartment) I work remotely, so I’m always open to moving my schedule around for what may work best for your little one. We’ll keep em as on schedule as possible while you’re away. :) Im also a retired nanny! So I’m very used to sending check in photos and txt updates, as well as full “while you were away” reports upon trip returns! If ur looking for someone safe & trustworthy to keep an eye on your fur babies, I’m ur gal ;) Can’t wait 2 chat! Talk soon! Xx I work from home and create my own schedule!! So I’m free to hang out with your fur babies as much as possible <3 I’ll keep them on their normal schedule so they don’t feel the slightest bit of discomfort :) I have a pet free home , because I travel too often right now to have a fur baby of my own. That being said , if your baby is a little shy or prefers being by themselves, this is the spot for them!

Ruth does an excellent job caring for my puppies! She is prompt in response to any communication about their visits or changes in my work schedule, adjusts her schedule when possible to take them out earlier or later, and is easy to communicate with. She’s been overly helpful today especially when I forgot to put the lock box on my door on the way out and had a full schedule at work, she even stopped by to get the key where otherwise my puppies would have been stuck with no potty or exercise breaks for hours. These two are full of energy so I know they appreciated the extra play time they got together today also! We are very grateful for Ruth and her excellent dog walking services.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program, so I am in an internship during the weekdays 9am-4pm. I can usually work around those times, and I try to be as flexible as I can, so please reach out even if my calendar says I’m not available! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.

I have top secret security clearance and many missions under my belt. My passion now is animals. I am currently an SPCA foster parent to both dogs and cats. No job is too big or too small when caring for your pet. Whether they have medical needs or just need a happy face to lick, I can take care of it all. I am available day or night with total peace of mind everything will be cared for. I live in South Lakeland. I am retired and available for boarding, client home boarding and care, pet walks and visits. I'm available any day and time. I will answer all requests as soon as I see them. I live alone in a small and safe community, with little traffic, which makes it safe for walks. I have a unfenced yard but I take great care allowing the dog to have freedom in the yard while being on a leash. I have access to a fenced in dog "play" area in my community. My home is non-smoking, cozy, and quiet. I keep the home air cool to provide comfort for the animals. I maintain constant contact with your loved one to know they are safe and happy. I will provide daily texts and photos of the pet, to the owner, to show they are safe and happy.

I regularly cared for a household with five dogs, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’m also a pet owner myself (one dog and two cats), so I truly understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets.

I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, send updates/photos, and make sure you feel completely at ease while you’re gone. I work full time but I am remote, so taking time during the day is no problem in addition to availability in the mornings and evenings. I’m happy to provide care in your home, where pets are most comfortable and can stick to their normal routines. Whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or just companionship, I’m committed to making your time away stress-free for both you and your pets. I’m very respectful of your space and privacy, and I also provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m also happy to help with small extras like bringing in mail or watering plants.

About: I have always had an admiration for animals no matter the type. But for some reason the love that you get in return from a dog is just indescribable. I know that it is always a weary feeling to leave your babies in the care of someone else. But it definitely helps to know that the person caring for your pet shares the same passion that you do. I never thought that I would own small dogs but I am actually glad that I do have two Chihuahuas now because I can take them almost anywhere! There has been an occasional weekend trip where I haven't been able to bring the pups along and it just didn't feel the same having to leave them behind. So if you have to leave them, leave them with someone who will care for them just as well as their own! I definitely prioritize my pets before any plans are made! No matter the time of day, week or year. They are my fur babies and anyone that knows me will agree! Depending on the environment or location, I would definitely say to use a leash first and foremost. I would also like to know if you know about the other animals in the area, just to provide as much safety as possible.

I want to thank Bethany and Nathan for being so awesome! They have cared for my baby Angel several times now. They are very reliable and responsive. I have been accomadated for last minute sittings. I am a nurse and sometimes get called into work a 12 hour shift at the last minute. I call Bethany and she sits for Angel with no problem. I feel very comfortable leaving Angel with Bethany, I don't have to worry about her. I can focus on what I'm doing with no fears about Angel. If you are a pet parent you know how important it is to find someone knowledgeable and reliable to care for your pet who is like your child. You can feel safe and secure that Bethany and Nathan will treat your pet just like their own. Just to wrap up I want to say that from the first time Angel meet Bethany and Nathan she took to them like she has never done before. I was amazed and knew then I had found the right person's to sit for Angel whom I love very much.

Matt and Nicole took the best care of my babies Russ and Delilah especially since I was in a very hectic time of my life. They loved my dogs as if they were their own. They got them personalized name tags and made Delilah a beautiful necklace with her name on it. They gave them baths, took them swimming, and walked them all the time. They stayed in contact and set my mind at ease knowing they were in the best hands possible. I would highly recommend Matt and Nicole to care for your furbabies because they really do treat them like family.

Megan and her family are very kind and accommodating people. My Finn loved his stay and didn’t want to leave… there is a wonderful yard for guests to play… and he was taken on leashed walks. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and I highly recommend her.

Thank you so much for taking great care of Lilo. When I picked up my Lilo she wagged her tail and it gave me a sigh of relief because I knew she had a great time. I will be using them again for any occasion if Lilo needs to be taken care of. I’m happy I chose you. Thank you!

If you're on the fence about booking with Cherisse, please read this. I'm a helicopter dog owner, my dogs are spoiled rotten and I rarely let them out of my care unless my normal dog sitter of 10 years can watch them. Due to her life changes, I found myself without a dog sitter and 2 days to find someone else so I took a shot on Rover and with Cherisse. We had a birth in the family we wanted to be at and knowing my three dogs were so well taken care of and comfortable with Cherisse helped us not stress about them and we were fully present with our family. Her home is beautiful and spotless, the daily updates were great and their care was wonderful. I can't thank her enough and will absolutely be booking her in the future.

Serenah is amazing with our dog. We've used her several times and every time she comes to pick up our dog, our dog gets so excited to see her again. To me that is the best review anyone can get :) We highly recommend Serenah, she is great with our dog, very friendly, sends us pictures, and the fact she will do pick-up and drop-off is just another added convenient bonus! We really appreciate that we've found Serenah as does our dog!
