About: I’m a Legal Assistant Monday through Friday but a full time animal lover 24/7! I have one dog, Daisy and two cats, Calypso and Chevy and 20 chickens. I also have experience with rabbits & hamsters. I worked at an animal hospital for 2 years. During that time, I acquired the skills of animal interaction with different breeds as well as technical skills. I have administered medications (oral & topical), administered vaccines, grooming including ear cleaning & much more. I successfully completed 2 semesters of a veterinary technician program. I would love to do a meet & greet before we agree to the sitting. I will not take on more than I can handle to make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting you & your pet! I work full time Monday through Friday but am a homebody and typically at home every evening, and every weekend. I am currently grieving the loss of my dog of 11 and a half years, she lost a battle to pneumonia. I will make sure your pet gets much love and attention. I have a large fenced in yard with much room to play fetch or just let your dog run wild. I never leave any animal (even my own dog) outside by themselves. Coming to your home, I will make sure your pet is as comfy as can be without you there. I would love to go over your expectations for your pet care prior to the visit.
“Richard was absolutely amazing with my doggies! He also provided helpful tips on how to manage my dog that doesnt do well with other dogs when were on walks. It was nice experience leaving my dogs and not having to worry if they were in good care.”
“Katie is absolutely wonderful. She responds pretty much immediately. Communicates very well with pictures, updates etc. She truly cares about your pet. Our fur baby was definitely pampered and cared for. I will definitely be using Katie again. I would give her way more than 5 stars. Thanks Katie.”
“This was our first time to ever leave our dog for more than a day so we were worried how he would adjust. However, it went splendidly with Zai and her family! She eased my worries with photos of Fraser happily hanging with them and Zai gave me regular updates. It is comforting to know we have a second home for him so maybe we will travel more!”

“Shelby is absolutely the Best caretaker I've experienced so far with Rover!! She's very conscientious in following instructions and goes way above and beyond just kitty care offering to water plants and brings in packages left on the porch in our absence. She's incredibly dependable even on short notice and I'd highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!! So appreciate this level of care for our feline family!!”
“Took great care of my little Ralphie! She took care and kept me constantly updated with how things were going. Diligently showed up at the times I needed for Ralphie. I would certainly use Katie again should I need her to watch my cat.”
“Mimi was the best choice for our fur babies. They immediately fell in love with her and she treated them as her own. I would 100% recommend her for any cat sitting inquiries. She always kept us posted with how they were doing and sent us loads of super cute photos of them. The cats were very happy to be under her care. Thank you so much!!!”
“She was amazing. She went out of her way to make sure my cat was comfortable and had everything he needed especially since I left in a bit of a rush! She communicated everything and was there for my cat when I couldn’t be! 10/10 recommend fully!!”
“Kelly is amazing! So professional and I had zero doubt that she would let us down! My kitties are usually shy but she was able to pet most of them! Would 100% book her again ! :)🙂”
“Daniel has done drop-in visits for my two cats during two separate bookings. He did a great job both times, following my instructions to a T and making sure the litter and trash were disposed of prior to my return. I will definitely continue booking with Daniel and would recommend him to family and friends.”
“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”
“Emily and Dom provide great care and are really great with my dog Frankie who can be a handful. They are reliable and send lots of photos and videos. Frankie always seems to enjoy his time with them. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. I started training animals at the age of 16, which helped me learn how to understand different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Our home is full of love—we have two sweet doodles who are part of our family, and two children who absolutely adore animals and enjoy helping give them attention and care. Pets in our home are treated like family, with plenty of patience, affection, and playtime. We are kind, loving people who take pet care seriously. Whether your pet needs extra cuddles, structured care, or just a safe and happy place while you’re away, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible daily schedule and allows me to be present with pets throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and affection. In my home, pets are treated like family. I don’t believe in isolating animals—pets are welcome on the couch, in the bed, and anywhere they feel comfortable. I believe cuddles, affection, and feeling safe are just as important as food and walks, so your pet will get plenty of love and attention while staying with us. They will be allowed to play in our large fence yard and pool. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I follow instructions exactly as requested. I respect your routines, rules, and preferences so your pet’s care stays consistent and stress-free. Whether that means crate time, specific feeding schedules, or house rules, I make sure everything is done the way you want.
About: I’ve cared for cats of all personalities for over 7 years. Friends and neighbors trust me to feed, play, and give their cats plenty of love and attention. I’m experienced with shy or independent cats, patient with kittens, and always make sure litter boxes stay clean and cozy spaces feel safe.
About: Taking care of cats has been the normal my whole life, my cats family and friend's cats. I have personal experience taking care of cats with disability or special care needs. I also have experience giving medication if needed.
About: Hi, I’m Analia! What separates me from other pet sitters is my unique experiences with animals while working and managing in a corporate setting (a pet store). I know very well the standard of care that the pickiest of clients (and animals!) expect, and my hope is to be allowed to extend such high standards and more to any pets in need of a buddy, and facilitate your peace of mind while they’re under my watch! My love for animals is boundless, and I can assure you that your animal will come back to you feeling super loved and appreciated too :) I am a happy and enthusiastic learner and most of all very, very adaptable to your pet’s individual needs and special requirements as well as your own personal day to day requests. Currently part time with a lottttt of free time in the afternoon! I am able to make drop in visits or walks as need be. I've also worked together with my partner (very loving and a stickler for rules- your rules!) to ensure we cover any gaps in timely care. My partner would be part of the meet and greet should we need to ensure your pets are comfortable and socialized if my visits before and after work do not suffice :) It goes without saying, I will heed whatever tips you have for your pets—they’re your babies after all!!— and I will absolutely make sure their safety and well-being is paramount while in my care! Never off a leash when outside, and always with my phone handy in case of emergencies. (Knock on wood!)
“It was so reassuring to have Ayla taking care of my 3 kittie for a week. She was immediately accepted by the cats...a real validation of her service. Will definitely ask for her help again!”
“Had Emily come for a quick two night stay. Great visit as always. Emily is prompt and professional. Takes great care of all of my pets. Communicates throughout her stay and sends frequent pictures. Leaves everything neat and tidy. She is wonderful. My pets & l love having her come stay. She knows all their personalities and routines and easily adapts when l have added additional pets to the herd. We already have her booked for an extended stay in the next couple weeks. It has been wonderful to have found Emily through Rover. I highly recommend her for any and all of your pet sitting needs!”

“I have a senior dog with special needs. Kate asked intelligent appropriate questions to evaluate if she and Matthew would be a good fit to ensure my dog was not a risk to himself, their home, or other dogs, and how to best meet his needs by understanding his behaviors. Once we agreed to a trial day care day. I was impressed with the care provided and my dog was very comfortable and happy being there. Kate sent photos and updates and was quickly responsive to my questions. Their dogs and teens are good companions to the client dogs, the house is dog-friendly in comfort and safety with all non-chewable temptations stowed away, and their spacious fenced yard provides stimulation and exercise. With a dog-friendly pool, they are hitting the pet resort level for my Boykin! They have earned our trust and respect as dog care providers, and we are grateful to have found them!”
“Diana put all my worries to rest. She took amazing care of my senior dog! Paris came back super relaxed. Diana provided updates and I could tell she was taking good care of my Paris :) Would 100% recommend and will definitely contact her again.”
About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“I was traveling and needed to someone for my furbaby to stay while we were out and about. I felt very comfortable leaving my furbaby Clyde with Sarah. Nice home with fenced yard and very sweet pooch of her own. Would definitely book again.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. We adopted Frankie in June 2025. He’s very dog friendly. Frankie is about 45 pounds. He is pretty energetic and can play rough so we’d do best with dogs his size or larger that match his energy and play style. We are a pretty active household. We like to spend time in the backyard and go for walks around the neighborhood or on the trails. I typically work from home so your dog won’t be alone for long. We have done a lot of training since getting Frankie. I’ve become very knowledgeable on training and dog behaviors. I am certainly no expert, but you can trust will we care for your fur baby as if they were our own. If there are behaviors or training you are working on, I will be happy to continue that during their stay. Contact me for any additional information! I primarily work from home so I have the flexibility to accommodate most needs. We tend to walk in the morning and evening with a midday potty break and play. You can trust I will follow any and all care instructions you provide for your dog. You know what’s best for them and I understand the importance of that. I will be sure to follow your typical routine so your dog is as comfortable as possible.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old, so I’m very experienced with their needs and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every dog like my own. Being a student athlete has taught me responsibility, consistency, and time management. I plan my days carefully, so I always have time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I treat every pet like my own and follow their regular routine with feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also create space for crates in my apartment so pets feel safe and comfortable.
“Reymun was great! He was there for us when we had a last minute request and was so quick to communicate. He sent us updates during the day and some cute pictures of peaches spending time outside. We won’t hesistate to reach out to Reymun again or recommend him to others!”
“The best dog sitter in Tallahassee!! Highly Recommend!! My wife and I were in Tallahassee for our homecoming weekend and needed a dog sitter. Judith did an outstanding job taking care of our Furbaby! She was very warm and welcoming; and our puppy was excited to return the 2nd day. When we return to town we will only use Judith!”
“Ainla stepped in on such short notice to watch our puppy so we could spend time with family. She was so communicative and sent many photos/videos to keep us updated. Amazing person to watch your dog.”
About: I grew up around animals of all kinds — dogs, cats, cows, pigs, and more — so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have two spoiled pups of my own, Milly and RJ, and I treat every pet in my care like family. One thing that sets me apart is that I’m a teacher, so during school breaks and summers I’m home throughout the day and able to provide plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention. We also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I pride myself on being dependable, patient, attentive, and communicative so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Since it’s summer break, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! We usually start the mornings slowly outside before it gets too warm, giving the dogs time to play, explore, and enjoy some fresh air. After breakfast, we spend time relaxing inside where the pups can nap, play, or follow me around while I read or get things done around the house. In the evenings, we head back outside for more playtime, walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog enjoys most. I’m home throughout the day, so potty breaks, attention, and supervision are never a problem — your pet will get plenty of love and care all day long! 🐾 I will care for your pet like they’re one of my own! 🐾 I know how important routines and comfort are for animals, so I do my best to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets in my home will receive lots of attention, love, supervision, and cuddles throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and pets are welcome to relax inside with me just like family. Treats are always given with owner permission, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions or preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.
“Byron came to the rescue last minute to watch my two pups—saved our vacation from needing to be cancelled last minute. When we got the dogs back at the end of the day, they were both so tired and happy—perfect day of daycare!! Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Communication was great. At drop-off I truly felt my pup was in great hands. Sent pictures throughout the day to let me know how everything was going. Definitely will be a returning client.”
About: I have owned or cared for my own dogs my entire life. Having lost my senior 'Stanley' last year I find myself longing for a dog's company and spirit. My own dogs have lived long lives - two for 18 years, one for 17 so I know how to give meds and care for their special needs. Stanley's petsitter recommended I try Rover - so here I am! I can come to your house, or bring your dog here to my 1/2 acre fenced in yard, with a dog door to the house and lots of time to share with your pet. I am retired and in Tallahassee or the vicinity walking or meeting up with friends. I have lots of free time to share with your pet. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard and a dog door to the house. I have a pool. I can come to your house if needed, or care for your dog here.
“Kayla was a life saver when my sitter fell through last minute! She took great care of my boy and he had a wonderful time getting to know other dogs and was right at home. The communication was great to know he was in safe and loving hands! We cant wait to stay with Kayla again!”
“Aylee was absolutely wonderful with Peaches! She accommodated us on very short notice, which we really appreciated, and she was incredibly communicative and friendly throughout the entire stay. We felt confident right away that Peaches was in great hands. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for. We would recommend Aylee to anyone and are already looking forward to bringing Peaches back in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors pets for many years! All types of animals as well. I have taken care of high energy dogs like Huskies, and Belgian Malinois. I also have grown up with dogs that can be aggressive and dogs with anxiety. I can administer medication, take them for long walks and play with them thoroughly. I’m working full time but a flexible schedule. I’m usually working mid day with an hour break. And I can adjust my schedule with notice in advance to work around your pets needs. I will gladly play with your pets in a backyard, take them for long walks, play with them inside etc. My pets are like my kids and I will treat yours as such!
About: I’ve shared my home with two beautiful cats for over 15 years — one playful boy and one gentle girl. Through active play, soft cuddles, and quiet moments of comfort, I’ve learned how to connect with them in ways that make them feel safe, loved, and understood. Caring for them has been one of the sweetest parts of my life. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because caring for others has always been at the heart of what I do. As a teacher and church leader, I’m used to being attentive, consistent, and compassionate — and those same qualities shape how I care for animals. My two cats have been part of my routine for over 15 years, so feeding, playtime, and quiet moments of connection are just built into my day. Whether I’m starting the morning with cuddles or winding down with evening play, caring for pets is one of the most grounding and joyful parts of my life. I care for pets with the same patience, consistency, and heart that I bring to my classroom and home life. With my own two cats, I make sure they feel safe, engaged, and loved every day through a mix of play, soft cuddles, and calm attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and animals with the same respect I’d want for my own: following routines closely, keeping environments tidy, and always prioritizing safety and comfort. Whether I’m dropping in for a visit or staying longer, I aim to create a peaceful, caring atmosphere where pets can relax and feel right at home.
“First walk with Katie and a very active and shy Lagotto! She did awesome. I love how she tried to work with him and his leash needs and practiced discernment around other dogs. Caper came back smiling and she now napping. Couldn’t ask for more and I look forward to establishing a consistent relationship with her”

About: I've been taking care of all sorts of animals since I was 11. Doing in house care, dropping by to walk dogs, and experience giving any medicine needed. I'm still looking for a full-time job so I have plenty of time to take care of any pet. I also have my own car which let's me be there when I'm needed. I have 4 cats, including one that only has 3 legs. I clean up after them and make sure they are fed 3 times a day. Playing and cuddling is always a must, especially with 2 of them still being kittens.
“Abigail was fantastic with Spirit. She met him when he wasn’t feeling his best and showed so much patience and care while he recovered. He’s now back to his old happy self! Thank you for going the extra mile. Highly recommend!”
“Kailey was very prompt and very professional. She was able to handle Toby with great care. Toby seems to love her already. I would recommend her for dog walking without a doubt.”
About: Welcome! We’re Emily and Dominique; wives to each other and cat mommies to two our precious kitties, Frenchie & Talulah. We love all animals, especially dogs for their loyal and excitable personalities. For two years, Dom and I were in charge of watching our former roommate's dogs (who are included in our photos for your enjoyment). This included watching them for consecutive weeks spread throughout the year and being in charge of feeding, playing, walking, and administering medication or first aid. Since moving, we both realized how much we miss having the energy of dogs in our home, so we've decided to give Rover a try! We love dogs of all sizes, so no poop size is too scary for us to handle! Dom grew up with a Yorkie named Gucci, and I had a Chihuahua named Bronx for some time before he was rehomed. Dom also helped her father train German Shepard as a child, so if you need to reinforce any commands, she's got it! We're excited to open our home to your loveable pooch and provide them with a safe, fun, and enriching environment while they're away from their family. With us both working from home, either of us can tend to your pooch. It also gives us the flexibility to step away any time between meetings to play with your fur baby and give them the mental stimulation they need. We have a fully-fenced-in and sizeable backyard perfect for your fur baby to run and play in. We don't have a doggy door so outside time will always be supervised. We have two cats, but they have their own room, so if your pup prefers not to socialize with cats, we can accommodate that.
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been a part of my daily routine. My first pet care experience started in high school, when I regularly walked my cousins' dogs and learned the importance of being dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog's individual needs. Today, I live in a home with three dogs, so I'm experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, administering routines, and recognizing when a dog needs extra attention or care. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know each one so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, play sessions, or simply having someone keep them company, I'll provide reliable, compassionate care and treat them like one of my own. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pups. Available week days and weekends. Just give me fair warning and I should be able to help! Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their schedule, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for walks and drop-in visits, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals, and lots of affection.
About: Hi! My name is Teagan. I've always loved animals and have grown up with pets all around me and have always helped care for them. I currently care for a dog and 2 cats so I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and their own fun personality! Whether your pet is super energetic and loves long walks or prefers quiet cuddle times, I'm more than happy to provide them with whatever attention or care they need! Im currently a college student at FSU and a training pilot which has taught me responsibility, communication, and attention to detail. So you can be sure that I'll always follow your pet's routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important updates are when you're trusting someone with your pet, so I'll send plenty of photos and messages to keep you informed and give you peace of mind. My goal is simple: to treat every pet as if they were my own. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I'm available most times and very flexible to the pets or parents needs! I will always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet's routine is followed as closely as possible. During visits, you can expect feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, attention, and plenty of updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and your pet's individual needs. I am attentive to changes in behavior and will always communicate with you if anything seems unusual. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and positive experience for your pet while giving you peace of mind.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for the last 8 years, on and off. Neighbors, friends from school, and family have trusted me to take care of their furry friends, and I'm excited to start using Rover! I specialize in dog walking, feeding, pet sitting, and lots of playtime! I'm a junior at Florida State University, with a flexible school schedule. I have availability on days where I don't have classes to tend to your pet care needs! I live in a smoke free, clean 2x2 apartment. I care for pets in my home by making sure they are safe from any dangerous objects, feeding consistently at a certain schedule, and making sure pets are monitored.
About: In my childhood I had many cats and I have now had a dog for almost 8 years! I started dog sitting about 3 years ago for my neighbors and I really enjoy it. I have taken care of their dogs while they were on vacation and have also dropped in while they were working. I have been around pets my whole life and I love them! I love going on walks and playing with them and am very passionate about animal care. I currently work part time at a bakery but my schedule is pretty flexible around that. I do school mostly online so work is the only time I wouldn’t be with the pet! I occasionally work in afternoons, sometimes in the mornings. Contact me and I can work a shcedule out for you! I am very diligent about following instructions for your pet and I am respectful of both your space and the pet! I am also very diligent about safety and will do my best to keep an eye on your pet the whole time. I will clean any messes that may be made and check locks before leaving every time. I always make it a habit to check for food, water, any potential messes, and locks every visit.
About: Hi! I’m your go-to gal with hands-on experience caring for two pit bulls, three cats, and a guinea pig. I’m comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, patience, or just a calm, caring presence, I’ve got it covered! Since it’s summer, my availability is very flexible. I work remotely, which allows me to keep my schedule open and be present throughout the day for your pet. You won’t have to worry about timing conflicts—feel free to check my calendar for the most up-to-date availability! I’ll be taking care of the animals in your home, but I’m very organized. I set alarms for feedings, clean up well, and I love playing with them.
“I’m so grateful for Kelly! She’s helped me out twice in a last-minute pinch and was incredibly reliable, responsive, and kind. Lucy was well cared for and happy, and I had total peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Gaby! Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and many other pets for years, and I love getting to know each one’s unique personality. I’m gentle, patient, and make sure every pet feels loved and secure while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feedings, or cuddles, I pay attention to the little details that keep pets happy and comfortable. You can count on me to treat your pets like family and keep you updated every step of the way. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I’m an early riser and love starting my mornings with walks or playtime. Throughout the day, I make time for feeding, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. On busier days, I still make sure every pet gets the care and love they deserve, consistency and comfort are always my priorities. When I care for pets in my home or my client’s home, I make sure their routine stays as close to normal as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions carefully. I always keep the environment safe, comfortable, and calm, giving pets the space and attention they need to feel secure. In my clients’ homes, I treat their space with respect and make sure pets are cared for just like they would be if their owner were there. Whether it’s cleaning up after them, giving medications, or spending extra time for cuddles and play, I go above and beyond to make sure every pet feels loved and cared for.

About: I’m a Legal Assistant Monday through Friday but a full time animal lover 24/7! I have one dog, Daisy and two cats, Calypso and Chevy and 20 chickens. I also have experience with rabbits & hamsters. I worked at an animal hospital for 2 years. During that time, I acquired the skills of animal interaction with different breeds as well as technical skills. I have administered medications (oral & topical), administered vaccines, grooming including ear cleaning & much more. I successfully completed 2 semesters of a veterinary technician program. I would love to do a meet & greet before we agree to the sitting. I will not take on more than I can handle to make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting you & your pet! I work full time Monday through Friday but am a homebody and typically at home every evening, and every weekend. I am currently grieving the loss of my dog of 11 and a half years, she lost a battle to pneumonia. I will make sure your pet gets much love and attention. I have a large fenced in yard with much room to play fetch or just let your dog run wild. I never leave any animal (even my own dog) outside by themselves. Coming to your home, I will make sure your pet is as comfy as can be without you there. I would love to go over your expectations for your pet care prior to the visit.
“Richard was absolutely amazing with my doggies! He also provided helpful tips on how to manage my dog that doesnt do well with other dogs when were on walks. It was nice experience leaving my dogs and not having to worry if they were in good care.”
“This was our first time to ever leave our dog for more than a day so we were worried how he would adjust. However, it went splendidly with Zai and her family! She eased my worries with photos of Fraser happily hanging with them and Zai gave me regular updates. It is comforting to know we have a second home for him so maybe we will travel more!”
About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“Well communicative and sent daily updates as requested. My dog loved being there with him even with other dogs on board, Andrew takes the extra steps to ensure every dog is comfortable and safe. Will definitely rebook again!”
