“I think my dog had a better time on vacation at Thomas' house than I did in St. Pete! Thomas clearly loves dogs, and my 50 lb pitbull mix was treated to a weekend of extra special attention and fun by Tom and family including his two dogs. Rocco instantly became one of the family. The pictures and videos I received through the weekend showed my pup playing happily with the other dogs, and sleeping soundly in Tom's lap. I would/will use Tom as a dog sitter again in a heartbeat!”
“We had a great experience booking with Judy. She and her kids received Chloe with plenty of love and gave updates without having to request. During our week away, we received lots of pictures and reassurance that our baby was enjoying herself. Once back, pick up was easy, all her things were folded and bagged like when they received her. She came home happy and healthy. Our last experience with a different sitter, our dog had a big allergic reaction and ended up costing us a lot in medical bills. Glad to know that she was in good hands with Judy. Will definitely book again.”
“Edith is amazing and taking care of the dogs. They're very happy there she sends pictures and videos throughout they're saved. They come home Happy while taking care of.

Her home is very clean and she has separate areas for the dogs in case someone doesn't get along with someone else. She follows the feeding instructions and has a nice fenced-in yard as well as the spaces home that's very dog oriented. Highly recommend her. If you're like me your pets are your kids and I don't trust line with anyone except my best friend who's a dog rescuer and Edith who's also a dog rescuer an amazing pet caretaker.”

“Sian and her husband are the dream team ! They saved me twice now with a last minute booking. My puppy is always so happy to visit that I’m scared he won’t come back to me lol.

Our dog was older and that was no problem for them. Thank you Mary & Jerry!!!”
“Alexis and Alejandro have been amazing for our husky! He is very needy doggo and so we have found this family to be a blessing compared to doggie hotels. Alexis always sends us pictures and gives us updates on how he is doing and I couldn’t ask for a better family to watch him when we are away!”

She is the best.”

“Rosanne is the cat whisperer!! Of my three babies, two are very skeptical of new people but they took to her so naturally. Amazing communication, loved the check-in photos and report cards. My kitties were very happy furballs and I would highly recommend Rosanne for any pet sitting needs!”
“Carla is really nice and friendly. She is a great sitter, she even has a catio for cats that are more social. I had a trip last minute and I texted her and she answered right away and took care of my cat which is not very social and is very shy so Carla put him in a separate room which I really appreciated!”
“gabriella was great with my frenchie! she watched him for a couple of days, took him on lots of walks, and kept me updated the whole time. very communicative and reliable. i’d absolutely book her again!”
“I had reached out to Ariela for a super last minute booking and she was quick to respond and accept. So thankful for her help and it was evident my kitties enjoyed her visit too!”
“Ari is a truly wonderful caregiver for our pets when we have to go away for any length of time. One of our cats is extremely skiddish around people other than ourselves, but he was playful and extremely interactive with Ari on her visits. We never have to worry about how they are doing, as Ari is the most reliable and updated us along the way of all her visits. She sends pictures of what our pets are doing, so we can relax and not stress about them, and actually enjoy the many photos of how they are behaving.”
“Royiesa made my week! She was very helpful during the booking process (as I was a first time Rover user). She dropped in on my cat and it made my Thanksgiving trip stress-free. She was very sweet and cleaned up the food my cat decided to throw around the room, sent me pictures/videos of him, and let me know he was doing okay! If I ever need a cat sitter again, she will be my go-to! Highly recommend :) Thank you so much, Royiesa!”
“Bridget was exceptional! From the very first moment Dante, my cat, met her, my boy felt at ease — which is rare, because he’s usually shy and tends to hide. But with Bridget, it was different. She has such a kind and calming presence that he immediately felt comfortable. She was wonderful throughout the entire experience. She kept me constantly updated and even sent me pictures, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she genuinely cares. I highly recommend her — your pets will be in loving and responsible hands. I’m absolutely sure I’ll reach out to her again the next time I need help. Thank you so much, Bridget!”

About: I had dogs since I’ve been a kid, I worked boarding and walking dogs, always interested in pet training getting knowledge as an autodidact person. For services of walking , sitting, or dog care I am available seven days a week, and the time is upon the requirement of pet owner. As a dog walker I’ll treat the pup in the natural way, so they will make exercise in natural conditions. Otherwise, a dog that use to be indoors need to get free of the stress, using it’s natural senses. It means walking a dog is not only for exercise, but very important, for mental health of the dog.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every dog I watch. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, calm, and very observant — which helps me quickly notice changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. Whether it’s a playful puppy who needs structure and consistency or a senior dog who needs a slower pace and extra TLC, I adjust my care to what’s best for your dog. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always have peace of mind. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for to ensure they receive consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m mindful of routines and make sure dogs aren’t left alone for long periods. Whether it’s daily check-ins, overnight stays, or extended care, I prioritize their comfort and well-being as part of my normal week. When pets stay in my home, they become part of my daily routine in a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow each dog’s usual schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and rest to help them feel comfortable and at ease. I provide plenty of supervision, affection, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. I also have a secure, fenced area where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor playtime, exercise, and fresh air in a safe space. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a slower, more relaxed pace, I tailor care to their age, personality, and needs. My goal is to make your dog feel at home while giving you peace of mind through regular updates and photos.
About: Pets are family, and I’m passionate about providing the individualized care they deserve. With over 10 years of experience in pet care and dog training, I’ve learned how important it is to truly understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. It’s more than just feeding them or taking them for a walk. For me, it’s about creating a safe, nurturing environment, building relationships founded on trust, and helping every pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy enough to truly thrive. I believe clear communication with pet parents is just as important as the care itself, so you always feel connected and at ease while your pet is with me. I work remotely and part-time for a puppy training company, which gives me the flexibility to be present, attentive, and spend lots of quality time with your fur-babies. I tailor my care to each pet and the specific service you book, whether that’s drop-in visits, dog walking, boarding or daycare. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet’s basic needs are fully met - fresh water, feeding (if needed), potty breaks, and a clean, comfortable environment. Beyond that, I spend quality time with them through play, enrichment, or simply providing calm companionship, depending on their personality and energy level. For dog walks, I focus on safe, structured walks that match your dog’s pace and training level. I reinforce good leash manners using positive reinforcement and make sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. In your home, I always aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, since that’s what helps them feel most secure. I’m very mindful of your space, follow all care instructions closely, and provide updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.
About: As an overprotective dog mom myself, I completely understand that your dog is your world!! You wouldn’t leave your baby with just anyone. Hi, my name is Debbie and I’m committed to providing a fun, safe, and loving environment for your pup. I believe in quality, not quantity—so I limit boarding to only 1-2 dogs (1 client family) at a time, to ensure your dog gets the attention they deserve. I love walking and tracking my daily step count so walking with a new furry friend is a bonus. I can handle large dogs, leash pullers & love highly energetic dogs that require lots of daily exercise. Since I’m home full-time, I can offer plenty of undivided attention, regular walks, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet to see if we can make your dog feel right at home with me! Use code DEBORB63777 to get $20 off your first booking with me on Rover. This is my passion!

I usually care for dogs in my home with my dog Peanut. I have plenty of parks nearby and space to feed dogs in separate rooms. Dogs are welcome on the couch and to sleep with me or be in a crate if that's what they prefer. Age and size does not matter. Dog must be potty trained and not bite.

“Ryan and Debbie were absolutely fantastic from the very first moment I contacted them. I contacted them with a last moment request when my son’s friend backed out at the last moment. My son was leaving on a business trip and I am recuperating from a leg injury that prevents me from walking my son’s 4 1/2 year old Gerberian Shepsky (GS Dog and Siberian Husky mix). He is a great dog but does not realize his own substantial strength. Ryan responded to my request within minutes and was available that morning. From the moment I met Ryan and his Fiance Debbie, it was evident that they love dogs and love taking care of them. They immediately became close with the dog and he would become very excited when they came to walk him. They would show up and he would run and say hello and then sit at the door for them to put his leash on Walks were long, especially in this heat, annd they would even run with him. Numerous photo updates would arrive by text while he was out on the walk and they would provide detailed reports of the walk. They will be by first choice when future needs present themselves and I would whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone. They are true dog lovers who liove what they do and it shows.”

“My wife and I are so thrilled with Carla and the care she displayed with our boys Augie and Archie. She was very tender with Augie who was blind, had diabetes and needed to wear a diaper. We said goodbye to Augie August 1st after 13+?years and more than once I cried and Carla was very supportive. My 3 year old Archie loves Carla and when I say her name his ears go up. We recommend Carla very much. She is 5*”
About: I’ve been responsible for walking my neighbor’s dog since I was ten, which taught me early how to handle different behaviors, stay consistent with routines, and make pets feel safe and comfortable. I also care regularly for my grandmother’s cats and have a kitten of my own, so I’m experienced with both canine and feline care, including feeding schedules, litter maintenance, play engagement, and reading body language. Pet care is one of my favorite parts of the day. I build their routines right into mine, whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, and plenty of playtime and affection in the evenings. I’m consistent with feeding times and love making sure each pet gets personalized attention. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully. I stick to the pet’s usual scheduled feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and playtime. I check water bowls, tidy up any messes, and make sure doors and gates are always secure. I also provide detailed updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs for family and friends, including walking, feeding, and spending time with them. I enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have flexible availability throughout the day, which allows me to schedule walks. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so it naturally becomes part of my everyday life. Pet care varies depending on the service. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm environment with constant supervision, regular walks, feeding, and playtime. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I follow their routine closely, making sure the pet feels comfortable in its familiar environment while still receiving walks, feeding, attention, and care as instructed.
About: 💕 About Me & Pet Experience Hi, I’m Jessica, but most people know me as Aunty Jess — your friendly, reliable pet sitter from Margate, Florida. I’m 24 years old and currently studying Veterinary Technology at Broward College. My passion for animals started when I was very young, and it’s grown into something that truly defines who I am today. I’ve spent several years caring for pets, including small and medium-sized dogs, playful puppies, calm seniors, and cats with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also cared for smaller pets like fish and shrimp — I even have my own aquarium! My experience ranges from everyday walks and feedings to maintaining consistent routines that keep pets calm and happy while their owners are away. For several years, I boarded up to six dogs at a time in my home, managing different breeds, schedules, and personalities with patience and care. It taught me how to balance structure with affection — making sure every dog received attention, exercise, and love. Some of my clients became repeat customers, trusting me multiple times with their pets, which means a lot to me and shows how dependable and compassionate I am with every animal I meet. I also used to have my own dog, who I adored deeply. Due to house rules, I had to rehome him, but I made sure he went to a loving family filled with care, stability, and affection. That experience strengthened my understanding of responsibility and the emotional bond between people and their pets. Now, I focus on offering House Sitting and Dog Walking so I can give pets one-on-one attention and personalized care in the comfort of their own homes. I understand that some pets experience separation anxiety or stress, so I always create a calm environment and follow their normal routines to help them feel safe and loved. Through my studies in Veterinary Technology, I’ve learned how to recognize signs of stress, discomfort, or health concerns early on. I know how to approach each animal with patience, empathy, and care — whether it’s during walks, feeding time, or bedtime. I take pride in being organized, trustworthy, and consistent, with a genuine love for all animals big and small. My goal as Aunty Jess is simple: to make sure every pet I care for feels loved, safe, and happy — just like they would if you were home. 🕓 Schedule I like to keep my schedule transparent and well-organized so pet parents know exactly when I’m available and how I plan my days around your pets’ needs. I’m currently a Veterinary Technology student at Broward College, and I’ve built my class routine to make sure every pet in my care still gets the love, attention, and time they deserve. Here’s my weekly availability: 📅 Monday – Wednesday: I’m in class for about 3 hours during the day, but I’m available after 3:00 PM for house sitting and dog walking. Before leaving for class, I always make sure pets are fed, walked, and comfortable so they feel relaxed while I’m away. When I return, I give them my full attention for evening care, playtime, and cuddles. 📅 Thursday: I have a short 2-hour class during the day, so my availability is very flexible. I’m free after 3:00 PM and can provide walks, meals, and plenty of evening companionship. 📅 Friday – Sunday: These are my fully open days, which means I’m completely available for full-day and overnight house sitting. I dedicate these days to giving your pets my full focus — walks, playtime, meals, and comfort throughout the day and night. I always plan my week carefully to make sure your pets’ needs come first. Even on class days, I maintain structure and consistency by following their normal schedule as closely as possible. You’ll receive daily updates with photos or videos, so you always know how your pets are doing. Your pet’s well-being and routine are always my top priorities — I’m committed to keeping them safe, loved, and happy every day of the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities with every pet I care for. I know that when you choose someone to look after your pets and your home, you’re putting a lot of faith in them — and I take that responsibility very seriously. You can always count on me to treat your space and your pets with respect, care, and honesty. As a vet student, I have knowledge of basic animal health, safety practices, and behavior management, which helps me create a calm, comfortable environment for every pet. I make sure water bowls are always full, leashes and collars are properly fitted, and that pets are supervised closely during walks or outdoor time. If a pet seems anxious or uncomfortable, I know how to respond gently and reassure them until they relax. I also understand how important your home is. When house sitting, I always keep things clean, organized, and secure — the way you left them. I lock doors, follow your household instructions, and never invite anyone over. My goal is to make your home feel just as peaceful for your pets as it does when you’re there. Trust is built through communication, so I send daily photo and video updates so you can see exactly how your pet is doing. Whether it’s a morning walk, nap time, or dinner, I keep you informed and confident that everything is going smoothly. Your pets’ safety and emotional comfort always come first with me. With Aunty Jess, you can feel completely at ease knowing your pets are cared for with love, patience, and a calm environment that feels like home.

“I think my dog had a better time on vacation at Thomas' house than I did in St. Pete! Thomas clearly loves dogs, and my 50 lb pitbull mix was treated to a weekend of extra special attention and fun by Tom and family including his two dogs. Rocco instantly became one of the family. The pictures and videos I received through the weekend showed my pup playing happily with the other dogs, and sleeping soundly in Tom's lap. I would/will use Tom as a dog sitter again in a heartbeat!”
“We had a great experience booking with Judy. She and her kids received Chloe with plenty of love and gave updates without having to request. During our week away, we received lots of pictures and reassurance that our baby was enjoying herself. Once back, pick up was easy, all her things were folded and bagged like when they received her. She came home happy and healthy. Our last experience with a different sitter, our dog had a big allergic reaction and ended up costing us a lot in medical bills. Glad to know that she was in good hands with Judy. Will definitely book again.”

“Alexis and Alejandro have been amazing for our husky! He is very needy doggo and so we have found this family to be a blessing compared to doggie hotels. Alexis always sends us pictures and gives us updates on how he is doing and I couldn’t ask for a better family to watch him when we are away!”
“Luka had stayed with Ximena and her family several times and has a great time. He is well cared for and I get regular repeorts, photos, and videos. Ximena is a fabulous dog person and Luka has a great time with her family as well. Her two dogs are excellent companions for Luka and they have a great "camp" schedule of playtime, rest, playtime, meals, playtime, and sleep. Ximena's house and fenced in backyard is set up perfectly for freedom to play and run around. I feel verty fortunate to have found Ximena to board Luka when I leave town. Thank you Ximena!”
“Ryan did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Colby. It was clear from the updates and photos that Colby received plenty of love, attention, and exercise while I was away. Ryan treated him like one of his own and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Colby was in good hands. When I picked him up, Colby was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust Ryan to watch him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
