“Gage and Ann are kind, caring, and very responsive. They take such good care of our dogs and really adore the doggies as their own. We are so happy to have found Gage and Ann, and so grateful for their help with our pets.”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful! This was the first time in a long time that our dog had stayed with someone other than family, so naturally, we were a little anxious about how she would adjust. From the moment she arrived, Julia went above and beyond to make her feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. She kept us updated throughout her stay with thoughtful messages and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear how attentive and caring she was, especially when it came to helping ease our dog’s anxiety and making sure all of her needs were met. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and, without a doubt, will be reaching out to Julia again to care for our fur baby. Thank you so much, Julia, for treating her with such kindness, patience, and love. We truly appreciate you! ❤️🐾”

“After a meet and greet we decided to have Diana watch our two Pugs for an overnight stay. Diana has a wonderful home, a loving family, and a friendly Milo. There is a separate basement level for the dogs, and a shaded fenced backyard. We found Diana to be conscientious, organized, thorough. She provided excellent communication from the time we reached out, until the booking was complete. We knew our pooches would be in good hands. We definitely plan on using Diana again.”
“Alia was wonderful with our kitten for the 2 days we were away on a quick family getaway and was very responsive when I checked in! She even sent us pictures to ebsure he was comfortable. My family felt that our kitten was in great hands with Alia and I will definitely come back to her again if I need a sitter in the future 😊”
“I had a great experience leaving my dog in Sandra's care. The week before I went out of town we did a meet and greet at her house. The meet and greet completely reassured me that my dog would be left in good hands. Sandra supplied daily photos. I imagine that it was like a vacation for my dog! I would have zero hesitation booking boarding with Sandra in the future.”
“Angie is fantastic and she communicates well through texting and the rover app. She kept me informed of how my dog is doing often and takes photos. He ate all of his dog food which is rare as he used to be sad at other places. Toby was happy staying with them and felt loved. Her husband is great too. We will be using them again.”

“Berkley was timely and communicative during the month that she watched our cats. There were no concerns while we were away because of her transparency and follow-up after each visit. We would recommend her services to anyone looking for a quality sitter that’s welcoming and looking to provide the best care for your pets.”
“Shay came twice to our house beforehand and took good notes. She went above and beyond taking care of our kitties and even took special care and measures for our 1 problem kitty until we could get back and get him to the vet today. Highly recommended with kitties and homesitting”
“Katie is wonderful! Very caring and attentive. She can get my extremely shy cat to come and se her and takes time to pay with the kitten. She brings in Mai and does all chores cat lol. Katie was Abe to help me with a last minute request and I’m very grateful she could assist. Highly recommend.”

“Leaving your furry family members for an extended period of time is never easy. Hailey helped to make the situation as good as it could have been. She was conscientious of our needs and very respectful of our home. We loved receiving updates and pictures during her stay and she was always quick to respond whenever we would reach out. We found Hailey to be diligent, trustworthy and prompt. We have already scheduled her next stay.”
About: I’ve cared for cats of all personalities — from playful kittens to older, more independent cats. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for changes in behavior or appetite, and keeping cats’ routines consistent to minimize stress while their owners are away. With my veterinary technician background, I’m skilled at reading feline body language and creating a calm, trusting environment for even the most timid cats.
About: I've loved animals my whole life! Growing up, my family had dogs, cats, fish, and even a gerbil. Later, I had two wonderful dogs of my own, so I understand just how much our pets become part of the family. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I have the time to give your pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve—not just quick check-ins. Whether we're going for walks, playing, sticking to their routine, or simply keeping each other company, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
About: I love dogs. Friends call me the whisperer. I lost my Princess 2 years ago to cancer and I find that this is the best medicine for me. I love to travel so having another baby right now is not in the cards. Taking care of your baby is the next best thing. I have had people fly me out to Portland, California, and New York to pet sit for them. I absolutley love it. Some of the dogs I have cared for were sick or new family members. I love to take them on new adventures but only if Mom and Dad are okay with it. I also love to train, play, and hug on them. My only job is taking care of your dog, so I am with them the entire day and night. Sometimes they will go on a golf cart ride with me. My yard is not fenced in so your dog would be walked regularly. There are plenty of grassy areas next to and accross the street from me. If there is a schedule you have for the dog that is what will be followed.
“Absolutely amazing! Alli is the ONLY rover we will book with, we’ve been having her hang out with our fur baby for years. Our girl absolutely adores her & she is so good with her & an extremely kind human. Perfect for overnight visits & drop-ins alike. If you want your fur babe to be loved like you love them - book with Alli!”
“Tifany was punctual, friendly and thorough. I truly appreciate the effort and attention to detail while caring for my four cats. I received regular updates and great pics.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ocklawaha
“Kobe loved daycare at Lorraine’s house! She also sent several pictures and videos throughout the day which was super awesome. I would only be in Ocala every once in a while for work but I definitely know where Kobe will go next time I’m here. Thanks so much Lorraine!”
“I have had Bailey stay with Tifany and her family a couple of times, and each time she has ensured that Bailey felt right at home with her other pups! Tifany makes sure her home is clean and dog friendly. Tifany has an outdoor area also ready for the dogs to play and have fun. If they get dirty, Tifany washes them so they come home clean as well as exhausted. She communicates regularly throughout your dog’s stay with pictures and updates. I definitely recommend Tifany and her husband!”
“Sandra was fantastic with my four Yorkies! This was their first time staying with her, and she did a great job making them comfortable and letting them adjust at their own pace. One of mine is especially shy and attached to me, and I really appreciated how patient and understanding she was with him. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day, which was really reassuring and let me enjoy my day without worrying about how they were doing. Managing four little dogs as a pack can be a handful, but she handled them wonderfully. I’m very happy with how everything went and would absolutely trust Sandra with them again. It’s great knowing I now have someone nearby I feel comfortable leaving them with. Highly recommended!”

“Bennie had the best time at Sandra’s house! It was my first time using the app and I was little nervous but Sandra sent plenty of pictures and updates so it made feel better.”
“Wonderful sitters, Bill and Krista. My wife and I had to drive from California and needed to board our five small furry ones for an afternoon while we secured housing. Bill is a gracious host with a beautiful back yard and his love for animals is very evident. Can’t go wrong with these guys. Will be using their services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. When I was a little girl I would always help take care of my animals with my mother. I used to live on a farm and I have had experience with many different pets/animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals and small animals. I also have experience with bathing, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and expressing anal glands. I can also administer medications. This is my full time job so I can do my very best to accommodate anyone who needs a pet sitter who truly cares about their pets. My wife and daughters help me sometimes as well. Our daughters are also knowledgeable in pet care from getting hands on experience through me. My wife just come with me every where I stay for Moral support. 💕 I have a fully privacy fenced in yard. If the pet is in a home without fence I will be sure to leash walk your pet for safety reasons. If your pet feels comfortable in a crate feel free to bring it. Also if there is a special toy, bed or something they enjoy or prefer they can bring it along for their stay.
“Gage and Annie did an awesome job taking care of our two pups! They provided updates throughout the day which we really appreciated. We will definitely be using them again.”
About: I love animals, especially dogs and cats. I am respectful and considerate, and I spoil and pet them all the time. I have been taking care of animals practically since I was a child. I am aware that they have important basic needs to consider, such as bathroom time, meal time, walk time. If they need special care or to take any medication, I am also happy to fulfill them. I work remotely from home, so I'm available to provide objective, dedicated, and responsible care. I can answer your questions via text message. And if you decide to, give me a call; I'll be happy to help your furry friends. Abrir en They will be in my constant company. I have a living room with a dining room and an additional room, spacious spaces, and a small balcony in my apartment if they like to look outside. This would be accompanied by me, of course. They will never be alone. I am very affectionate with them. I can follow the routine you have planned (as similar as possible) to your pet's so that your absence is bearable and pleasant. Just write to me and tell me what you are looking for. I will be happy to help you.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and reliable dog walker with a genuine love for animals and a passion for providing safe, attentive care. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies who love adventure to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take time to learn their routines, personality, and individual needs to make sure they feel comfortable and happy. My goal is to give your dog not only exercise, but also companionship, attention, and a positive experience while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to treating every dog like family. Safety is always my top priority, and I believe in positive reinforcement, consistency, and building trust with both pets and owners. You can count on regular updates and communication so you can feel confident knowing your furry friend is in caring hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pup and becoming someone both of you can rely on! I don’t have a daily routine or pets of my own at this time, I have learned that pet care becomes a set of repeating rhythms spread across the day rather than one big task. A typical routine often looks like this: * Morning: feeding, fresh water, a walk or litter-box cleanup, and a quick check that the pet seems normal in energy and behavior. * During the day: exercise, play, mental stimulation, bathroom breaks, and attention that matches the animal’s needs. * Evening: another meal if needed, more activity or bonding time, grooming for some pets, and preparing a comfortable sleep setup. * Less frequent tasks: brushing, nail trims, cleaning habitats or bedding, training, medications, and vet appointments. Different pets shift the balance a lot. A dog may anchor your day around walks and exercise, while a cat may need shorter play sessions and litter maintenance. Good home pet care usually includes consistent food and fresh water, regular exercise and play, a clean living space, grooming, and attention to health and behavior. Dogs often need walks and training; cats need litter-box maintenance and play. I also watch for changes in appetite, energy, or behavior because those can be early signs that something is off.
“Janelly was great! We were somewhat nervous as Chase is new to us as well, but she set our minds at ease. Her family is lovely and she provided a video of Chaserino playing with her boys, happy pup!! We will absolutely work with her again! Thank you so much!”

About: What Pet Parents Can Expect Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 35 years of experience caring for pets of all kind, from pampered pups to quirky cats, bunnies, and everything in between. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting care, they’re getting love, snuggles, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I specialize in senior pets, special needs animals, and those who just need a little extra TLC. Whether your fur baby is shy, spunky, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. You can expect: Regular updates with cute photos and notes A calm, nurturing environment A clean, safe space for play and rest Patience, reliability, and tons of love Experience with administering meds and handling special diets Think of me as your pet’s favorite extended family member, the one they’re always excited to see! Hope to meet your dog(s), cat(s), horse(s), etc soon! :) Pet care isn’t just part of my day. It is my day. From sunrise snuggles to sunset strolls, my entire routine revolves around the animals I care for. Whether I’m feeding breakfast to a sleepy pup, giving midday meds to a senior cat, or ending the evening with playtime and cuddles, every moment is planned with pets in mind. Caring for animals has been my lifelong passion, and I’ve built a lifestyle around making sure every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m always home or nearby, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected. This isn’t just a job to me. It’s who I am. When your pet stays with me, they become part of my heart and my home. The care I provide is 100% customized to whatever that pet's parents do as a routine with them. My goal is to make their stay with me as close to what they are used to as possible.
About: Im in my 50's but Ive always loved animals since i was very young.. i was in 4-H as a teenager & thats when I started petsitting. When I was 28 i started my petsitting/housesitting business. I had that business for 20 years in Ohio. We moved here in 2019. I have continued my petsitting here & love what I do! My visits are about 30 minutes. I do feeding, watering, litter boxes, medications, insulin is okay also. I will bring in the mail and newspaper and water plants & fill birdfeeders. I enjoy walking dogs as well as playing with them in their yard. I am comfortable with many other pets including cats, Birds, fish ()I have a 40 gallon aquarium, & a 10 gallon) hamsters, gerbils (& other rodents) guinea pigs, ferrets, rabbits, iguanas and other lizards. Thank you so much! I also have experience with horses, ducks, goats & a few cows lol! Petsitting is my career so thats my priority. Visits are tailored to your pets needs. I like to schedule as far in advance as possible so I work my days off around what I have in the book. I tailor my visits according to your pet's needs. I can do as many visits per day as you would like. I can also stay longer if you need. When I do "housesitting " , its a bedtime visit, sleepover & morning visit before I head out for other clients. I will do as many drop-in visits as you would like during the day before I return for the overnight (housesit).
About: I have always had animals in my life my entire life. My first job was at a dog kennel as a kennel attendant. My family has even fostered animals and helped them find their forever homes. I currently work for the Humane Society. I am currently a part time college student, but I will have plenty of time with your fur babies. Willing to make yours and my schedule work. At the moment I am not accepting animals at my home, but I am willing to go to client's homes to care for their fur babies. Anywhere from letting them outside to play and go for walks to making sure they have food, water, and a clean bed to relax in.
“Ona has been wonderful. I needed to find someone to help my father with his dog because of some health issues and she has been simply GREAT!! Her communication and reliability has been outstanding - especially because I’ve set this up from Colorado. It offers us so much peace of mind knowing we have someone to help walk Jax while my father recovers.”
About: I’ve spent over 18 years caring for animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to horses. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I have hands-on experience with senior animals, large breeds, and animals needing medication or extra attention. My background working with horses has also strengthened my confidence in handling animals of any size and temperament with patience and care. am currently an overnight veterinary technician at a large animal hospital. My work schedule allows me plenty of daytime flexibility to provide dedicated pet care. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or extended visits, I’m able to give your pets the attention and care they deserve while maintaining a consistent routine. At my residence there is plentiful amounts of grass for your pet to play in. Safety and comfort are my top priorities — I can easily crate your dog if needed and follow any specific feeding or medication instructions. With my veterinary background, I’m comfortable handling pets of all temperaments and ensuring they feel secure and loved while you’re away.
“Gage and Ann were amazing and helped me out last minute. They were very prompt, great communicators, and clearly showed a lot of love to my pup, I could see it on my camera, which gave me total peace of mind. Overall, a great experience and I would absolutely book with them again!”
About: Since I was a child, I have always had pets in my house; dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, etc. I have experience in basic training, working with senior dogs, medicating dogs, puppies (both caring for and potty training), and body language in dogs. I know much about mannerisms and behavior in dogs as well as how to combat the bad ones. I have worked with all types of dogs, as I have worked in the pet food industry before. I have volunteered with multiple dog rescues in Florida including The Animal League and Hound Haven. I am a certified Canine Training & Behavior Specialist as of 2021. I am currently half way through a pet nutrition course as of 2022. I currently have a business from my home. If I have any markets, I would have to leave during the day for about 4-6 hours to handle that and possibly longer hours due to markets themselves. I have recently moved to a 3 acre plot, in which we are currently building a doggy haven with tons of fenced in running area and in the future pools and play equipment. If a VIP (very important pet) doesn't have access to a backyard I like to walk 3+ times daily depending on the dog. I feed my dogs twice a day on the best food I make myself. I have literal baskets of dog toys as well as safe chews for the dogs who like to chew. I'd rather not take dogs to a dog park as of the safety issue. I have two horses and 18 chickens that roam on my 3 acres and can take dogs as long as they are on leash to meet them. I live with a roommate who also helps take care of any pets in the house. I have five pets in the house; my pigeon, Sterling who 'rules the roost'; my two ferrets, Dobby & Dougal who love to play; my large (75lbs) dog, Blake who is excited at first then is calm; and my medium (30lbs) dog Akira who is most playful of the bunch. I watch all interactions with my pets and do have 'safety' crates for my pets if any issues of socialization.
About: I have always had animals my whole life. Myself and parents have rescued dogs as well. I am an animal lover no matter the size or breed. I have 2 dogs that myself and my 3 year old son adore. I work from home so my availability is flexible and animals will always have someone here. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have 2 friendly dogs that love playing with others. They are up to date on shots.
“Jennifer is amazing and takes care of my Lacey as if she is her own! Lacey actual makes gleeful noises when she knows Jennifer is about to arrive! Jennifer was also so kind to make last minute arrangements for Lacey to stay with her parents when we had to head out of town. She’s a marvel, she is trustworthy- & comes & goes from our home when we are not here. Jennifer gets 10 star rating!”

About: I’m home all day/night pet sitting full time! Once I became a pet owner I never looked back. My fury child is my life. As a pet owner for 14 years I am very skillful in all areas of pet car from teeth brushing to tick picking. I have seen them grow old, loose their hearing, sight and ability to walk, but never once treated them like an old dog. I take seriously the need for touch by brushing their hair as often as possible and giving belly ribs when they turn on their backs for that special attention. My bed is their bed as they like to cuddle and feel safe and secure. I am a morning person and love feeling the brisk air as I watch pets take to the grass for their morning outing. I am home all day/night! I am available as early as 5:30am to receive your fury child into my home. I have plenty of space for them to play and I for one like to keep them in my site. Especially the little ones, they can get into so much. I have 4 dogs parks right in my community and each one is covered in grass. I love to walk, so your pet will never be taken off schedule. I have the best water-resistant floors in the event of any accidents, just wipe and go. I take work/life balance breaks so always free to play with your pets. I am currently home all day/night! I can feed twice a day or more, and I offer treats, walks and lots of play time. I can separate your pet, if need be. I have lots of sleeping space for those that are just tired little pups. My house is quiet, no children so no bother. I have a closed in balcony which provide a nice look out point for your pet. I have stuff animals and dog toys that I leave around the house for playmates as well.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life. My neighbors trusted me to watch their dogs as well. I now have 3 big dogs of my own! I can fall in love with any dog regardless of size or temper. In my eyes all dogs need the same amount of love! I am in between jobs at the moment but looking for a part time job as well as this. I also have a 6 month old baby and I am adapted to being a mother at the same time. I make sure they have their water bowls filled. Also will make sure to feed them based on what feeding schedule they are on at the time, and take them for walks daily. Also I’ll make sure they get enough love and affection while their owners are gone.
“Angela has been very patient with me trying to learn how to use Rover. She's done an excellent job with my little Yoshi. He can be a bit of a wild card out on walks and she has handled him very well and he enjoys his walks very much.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and truly love all breeds and personalities. Your dog will feel safe, loved, and well cared for every visit. I offer walks tailored to your dog’s needs—whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk to burn energy. I’m also experienced with administering both oral and topical medications. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for cats, birds, chickens, turtles/tortoises, and hamsters—so you can feel confident all your pets are in good hands. I am at stay at home mama with time to spare. My son is in school for 6.5 hours so I’m all yours. Even after school I’m available just with a sidekick. I keep dogs on a short leash. If you don’t have a fenced in yard no worries we shall secure the neighborhood instead. At my home we have a fenced in yard to keep my dogs safe and secure

“Gage and Ann are kind, caring, and very responsive. They take such good care of our dogs and really adore the doggies as their own. We are so happy to have found Gage and Ann, and so grateful for their help with our pets.”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful! This was the first time in a long time that our dog had stayed with someone other than family, so naturally, we were a little anxious about how she would adjust. From the moment she arrived, Julia went above and beyond to make her feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. She kept us updated throughout her stay with thoughtful messages and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear how attentive and caring she was, especially when it came to helping ease our dog’s anxiety and making sure all of her needs were met. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and, without a doubt, will be reaching out to Julia again to care for our fur baby.

“Lorraine was absolutely fantastic. We’ve tried rover in NYC, Chicago, and Florida and she has been the best person we’ve found. She sends videos, pictures, and our dog who is really shy was so comfortable with her. Can’t wait to book her again! 🐾”
“Cyndi was wonderful with my lab Coco. I was very nervous because Coco is only 6 months old and has never stayed with anyone else. Plus she's spoiled to death. She absolutely loved being with Cyndi. I wouldn't leave Coco with anyone else. Thank you Cyndi for making me feel comfortable too and allowing me to enjoy my vacation with no worries.”

The first day we did experience a little less communication, but after chatting and stating our preferences Kristin was great! She was also very flexible with our pickup time due to delayed flights. Very appreciative of her!”
