Both Leo and Penelope look happy to be home and they also look satisfied after their stay with Ivanka and her two puppies. If you are looking for a dog sitter, look no further than Ivanka!

About: I grew up caring for multiple large dogs and cats simultaneously. One of the two labs required extra care as he lost a rear limb when he was a puppy. I currently am blessed with a beautiful domestic long hair cat named Misty that has extra grooming needs and requires extensive daily brushing. My professional lifestyle allows me plenty of available time to meet the needs of any unique or variable schedules for both my own and your pets sitting and walking needs. I’m an experienced dog walker and actively engage with animals to keep their attention and gain their trust. For cats I groom and brush daily as well as reinforce positive behavior through praise training.

“Kevin was great. He has a big yard and a great space for dogs. I feel he really understands dogs and their habits and genuinely has fun taking care of them. I always have a few special requests regarding crating, diet, and travel, and Kevin was super accommodating, understanding, and respectful. I love that he limits the amount of dogs he accepts at one time, so I really felt that my dog was safe and well monitored. He also sent plenty of pictures!”
“Chester loves staying with Janniqua and we’re very happy to know our puppy is in great hands. Great communication and soon she’ll have two frenchies to watch :)”

“No tengo palabras para agradecer a Carilyn lo amable que fue con nosotros y Santin. Es la primera vez que contesto un servicio de este tipo para cuidar a lo más preciado que tengo, mi hijo perruno. Gracias por el cuidado y amor brindados. Santin salió feliz de allí. No solo lo recomiendo si no que les aseguro que sus peluditos no van a estar mejor en otro lugar que no sea este. Gracias gracias gracias!!!”
“The Best Dog Sitter I Could Ask For! I couldn’t be happier with Kimberly! She's been watching my baby boy every week, and her care and compassion toward him warms my heart. From the moment we met her, it was clear she has a genuine love for animals and enjoys making them feel comfortable and happy. Each week, she goes above and beyond, ensuring Cooper gets oodles of attention. The cute photos she sends and text updates alway shows me he being so well cared for. She even brushes him when he visits, LOL! I love how quickly she responds when we communicate and how kind she is to me every time we interact. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, dependable, and loves dogs as much as you do, look no further than Kimberly. We’re so grateful to have found her!”

“This was our first time leaving chandler with someone that wasn’t family and I’m very happy with the experience! Kelsey was very responsive and texted us photos throughout the day!”
About: I've been pet-sitting for friends, family, and referrals for the past 10 years. Yorkies, Doodles, Dachshunds, and other mixed breed dogs, cats, and birds. I love caring for pets, especially cats and dogs and keeping them on their routines, feeling safe and loved while their owners are away. I've cared for senior dogs and have administered medications to both cats and dogs. I love taking dogs for their walks ...I personally walk 3+ miles every day and will gladly sit for dogs who love a good, long walk. I typically do overnight stays from 2 nights to 6 weeks. I am now accepting dogs, one at a time, for day sits in my home. I have a big fenced in yard and currently no pets. As a writer and yoga teacher I work from home and have lots of time to play with, walk and provide lots of loving attention to your pets. I do not currently have a pet. I used to have cats and I love all pets. I have a fenced in back yard. I typically pet sit in the pet's home when owners travel and am now offering daycare for one dog at a time in my home. I love to send pictures of the pets to their owners to let them know their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Janniqua is a wonderful pet sitter. She was able to take my dog Charlie on short notice. Her house is very clean and she is very professional. She sent me daily photo updates of Charlie. I would definitely use her services again.”
“I liked everything. The dog seemed calm after I picked her up. Elyscia sent photos and responded to my requests and messages quickly. Her dog seemed very friendly.”
“Cristal was so amazing. She took care of my standard poodle, Wiles. She let him play in their big backyard. She sent updated videos and pictures. I came from out of town to visit family and wanted to have a place for him to stay all day. She took such good care of Wiles that I did not worry at all while I was with my family all day. Wiles had the best time and kept giving her hugs when he had to leave. I would highly recommend Cristal to keep your dog. I give her five stars. She was fantastic and now when I come to visit my family, I will have her keep Wiles again.”
“We needed a daycare spot for a few days with a nice yard for our high energy pup as our fence was getting replaced. When looking for a sitter, Jonathan and Jennifer checked all of the boxes. We are so thankful for you both welcoming Sailor into a safe and fun environment. We received regular updates with photos (some of those were hilarious). She came home happy after each visit and was excited to see them every morning we dropped her off. We will definitely reach out in the future!!”
About: High-energy pet sitter ready to keep your big dogs happy, active, and thoroughly loved! Whether it is floor playtime, fetch in the yard, or long neighborhood walks, your pup will get total attention. I also have a green thumb and am happy to keep your house plants watered and thriving while you travel. My schedule is flexible so I can visit your fur baby any time after 7am and before 8pm. My home is open for pet sitting 24/7. I have a fenced courtyard and a pet free home so your pup will feel comfortable staying here! The living space is on the first floor and the bedrooms are upstairs.
“Thank you for everything you did and your help for us out of town out of state! Max had a great time and if and when we come back down I’ll reach out again, very welcoming and knowledgeable with the area and flexible with our unexpected issues (losing a phone) she is someone you can trust with your care! Love love the card and pictures ❤️”
“Took such great care of little Miss Fancy Pants that the next time I dropped her off she ran up and jumped on him (and dobermans are very selective in who they like).”
“Mercedes did such a wonderful job with my puppy. I cannot thank her enough for being so flexible and accommodating for us on top of it being last minute! Got cute pictures of them snuggled up and he didnt want to leave!”
About: Beginning in childhood, I’ve had several dog breeds (over 20!) that I’ve been tasked to take care of, play with, keep healthy and whose needs I’ve grown to pay attention to and understand. I adore animals and I approach them gently and mindfully, always considering what support will help prolong their lifespan and keep them happy, yet trained and behaved. My friends and family often call on me to either keep their pets company, train or housesit them, and I’m always more than happy to spend time with their animals. I firmly believe pets are not toys, and much more like our own kids, deserving of care, compassion, joy and attention. I have 17+ years experience taking care of and loving French bulldogs and pugs, who notoriously require extra responsibility, attention and instruction, as they can be stubborn and prone to health and breathing issues (often brought on by heat). I have cared for senior dogs who deserve nothing but love towards the end of their lives, and also puppies who need time spent on training and feeling safe, and lots of play and activity to stimulate their growing minds. I am a graduate student, with flexible availability between Saturday to Tuesday, during my off days, when I’ll be studying from home, often lounging and relaxing in my space. Having a pet to look after, feed and care for would not only be a very welcomed time commitment, but would make my space feel even more homely and bring me joy. I have enough time to play with dogs, pay attention to their unique needs and keep them active and joyful, or to simply accompany them while they rest and rejuvenate. I have a spacious apartment and a shaded dog park within my apartment community, as well as a dog wash corner next to the park - helpful during hot days in Florida. I am extremely mindful towards any pet staying with me, and provide them with a comfortable, safe and cooled space, in which I am committed to staying aware of their habits, likes and dislikes, and learning to understand their groove. There are several areas for them to use the bathroom outside, take a walk within the apartment community, as well as designated pee pads inside the apartment. I am happy to be in touch with the clients as often as needed, to help them feel at ease about letting their little one stay with someone new. I care about building trust with a dog, and taking the time to grow our bond, so they can be at ease in their surroundings and reduce any anxiety from a new environment.
“Denys was amazing. She communicates very well and takes pictures to give updates. Rocky made himself at home right away and seemed to be very comfortable. I will be reaching out again in the future.”
“Omg Rachel is the best!!! She always takes such good care of our little Micah!!! Takes him for walks and gives him lots of love and attention just the way he likes it. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him while daddy and daddy are at work”

About: I have a 19 year old poodle so I know lots about senior care and extra love:) but I have a lot of energy for the younger pups too! Pet care fits very well with my daily routine I have only a few college classes I’m taking that are very flexible throughout the day. I care for pets very well I’m used to dog sitting and taking care of others fur baby’s as well as my 19 year old senior dog.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have two spayed female cats, ages 5 and 10 both are good with other animals, and previously cared for our family Morkie for many years who has since passed. I’ve also helped care for my dad’s Golden Retriever with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. Being around animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. ✨ I work from home and have a flexible schedule through my small business, which makes it easy for me to provide attentive and reliable pet care throughout the day. 🐾 I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any specific routines their pet is used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine to help minimize stress while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured and connected throughout the stay. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always approach them with patience, attention, and gentle care.
“Rebecca helps me with all my pets. She even went with me to pick up my Irish Setter puppy from boarding after I had surgery, since I was too weak to handle him. I really appreciated her willingness to help me with this situation.”
“Danielle did great with taking care of my two dogs and cat while we were away. She went above and beyond with her communication, sending pics and taking her time walking and feeding the pets. She even helped clean up with one of my dogs who had a poopy situation which was not at all expected, I felt bad my dog got runs while I was away. But she helped give him sweet potato so he felt better and even bought peewee pads, which just kept my mind at ease knowing my dog was being cared for. I would definitely rehire her again, she was just the best!”
About: Since I was young, I have cared for animals big and small. I grew up with cats and dogs, but have also raised the occasional turtle, snake, lizard, mouse, and fish. I love animals and am not afraid of complicated instructions or a challenge. I have experience with accidents, medications, and clingy, anxiety-ridden babies. I have an educational background in psychology - paying attention to pets and watching for their cues helps keep them healthy and happy. I’ll be able to tell if something is an stress-reaction or “just that weird thing they do.” My current companion is my best boy, Teddie. I found him in the trash on the side of the road one day (true story!) and bringing him home was the best decision I’ve ever made. I currently have a flexible work schedule and work remotely on Mondays. I have full availability for Saturday and Sunday, so I can be the perfect sitter for your long weekend getaways! Each pet is unique in how they communicate. I pay careful attention to a pet’s cue or behavior to determine what they may need. By being observant, I can ensure that your pet is happy, safe, and well taken care of! Many pets that I have cared for needed medication or had special instructions for care. I am no stranger to potty accidents or stress reactions. I would be happy to care for your pet that may need a little extra patience or kindness. Unfortunately, due to my small apartment, I am unable to care for pets in my home.
About: I've been a pet owner my whole life, and honestly, I tend to enjoy the company of animals more than people. In my neighborhood I'm the one who feeds and knows all the stray cats by name — so if your dog needs someone who'll show up, pay attention, and genuinely care, that's me. I'm comfortable with dogs of any size, from tiny and timid to big and boisterous. Whether your pup needs a quick check-in, fresh water and a potty break, or a solid walk to burn off energy, I'll treat them like my own. Based in Orlando and happy to meet beforehand so you and your dog feel comfortable before booking. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually fit in visits and walks throughout the day, not just early mornings or evenings. Weekdays and weekends both work well for me, and I'm happy to coordinate around your dog's usual routine. Since I offer drop-in visits and walks rather than boarding, most of my time is spent in your home. I always follow your instructions closely, double-check doors and gates are secure before leaving, use a secure leash and harness on walks, and stay attentive the entire visit so your pet always feels safe.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, including Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Cane Corsos, and many others. My love for animals goes far beyond simply caring for them—they truly become family. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. If you choose me as your pet sitter, you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member will be treated with patience, compassion, and plenty of love every step of the way Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I currently work part-time, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., which allows me plenty of time each day to provide attentive care before and after work. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’m available to give them the love and attention they deserve. On the weekends, I’m completely off, giving me even more flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and spend quality time with them. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. In my client’s home, I strive to keep your pet on their normal schedule by providing fresh food and water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed and with instructions), and plenty of affection. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while I’m there. To give you peace of mind, I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to their individual needs.
About: Since 2017, I’ve had experience caring for extra large to extra small dogs breeds, cats, and other types of pets. The first puppy I had the responsibility of caring for was a husky/lab mix, I’m grateful to have been able to help him grow into a well-trained, well-mannered adult dog! I want to make sure your pet’s dietary, medical, exercise, and overall wellbeing needs are met and I’m looking forward to understanding these from you! :) I currently work in a position with a very flexible schedule. I am absolutely willing to work with a schedule that meets you and your pets needs! I will treat your mammalian, reptilian, or aquatic loved ones like I do my own - with kindness, love, and respect! I want to make sure they are comfortable as possible while you’re away.
“I would not hesitate to recommend Rylee for your pet’s needs. She has been wonderful. It is evident that she knows how to handle a dog, is punctual and keeps me informed. I am so grateful to have Rylee at a time when I cannot walk Lincoln myself”
About: I have always had an empathy for all animals which allows me to work with them in specific ways, know their needs, and provide the emotional care and love they deserve. Giving your babies a place to feel like they're on a vacation rather than feeling homesick. I am always available for all of your pets needs. If they need frequent walks I am available, or if they need that tender loving care of home I am available for that as well. Since I am currently managing my own business I have plenty of time at home to supervise and play :-). I always ask the owner's if there's anything that I need to know in regards to the pet's health, to be able to cater to their specific needs. I always make sure that they are walked frequently, and fed the owner's specific diet. I care for them as if they are one of my own. Looking forward to meeting you! I have open availability to ensure that I can spend all the time needed for care and play. They will never be left unsupervised in the home. It's a very relaxed environment, that will allow your pets a free roam unless a crate is required. There is plenty of space for them to run around. If I am sitting in someone else's home for them, I always make sure to follow all the instructions provided.
About: Hello! I’ve been pet sitting since 2019 for a variety of animals, like cats, dogs, chickens and recently sheep. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets. I am completely available and would be happy to provide care in the areas of pet sitting, drop-ins and dog walks. This is a service I really enjoy doing and I am looking forward to providing the help you’re looking for. I only pet sit at the client’s home. If the owner has any specific instructions for the pets needs, I typically just go by that.
About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats and am comfortable with all different kinds of breeds. I understand the importance of respecting animal boundaries and needs, and will take care of your pet as if it is my own! I have done pet sitting for my friends and family’s pets which range from big dogs such as golden retriever and small dogs like Maltese. I’m currently working Monday to Wednesday. I’m off Thursday to Sunday. So I’m usually home from Thursday to Sunday if your pet requires extra attention. I have pet sit for my friends and family’s pets before and I follow their instructions carefully regarding meal times, walks, and playtime. I feed and make sure they drink water, take frequent walks, and have lots of playtime with pets.
About: I've fostered and volunteered with dog rescues for over 20 years. Having grown up with animals I have such a love for them. I've helped with birthing puppies, trained them, and seen them through their senior years. I'm available to care for your dogs 7 days a week. Based on your dogs needs I can walk, feed and give medication. Most importantly I can give them the care they need, while providing you peace of mind. Please know I do modify fees that accommodate your specific requirements. I am a freelancer and have a flexible schedule. It allows for me to be active, spend time outdoors, as well as giving daily dog love and care. Having your dog be comfortable, safe and enjoying time while in my care is my priority. Your requests for photos, feedings, walks, are always respected and honored.

“Carilyn was amazing! I would highly recommended her for your pets. She is communicative and my dog was comfortable with her. And I can’t wait to hire her again!”
About: I had a large sized dog for most of my life and grew up with her from the age of a puppy until she passed away my freshman year of high school to old age. She was a pit/lab mix and I loved running with her, cuddling when she was tired, and even allowing her to "play" with me while I do yoga. I have so much love for animals, as I believe they are true reciprocates of unconditional love. I would love to spend time with your animals while you need them cared for. I am an opera singer and voice teacher. Finally, I guess a special skill would be I love relaxation techniques such as yoga, music, sound healing etc, and animals are so attuned to these activities that I could even provide a healing experience for your pet :) Available any time! Was recently let go from my job as a yoga and music teacher in the public school system due to budget cuts, so I am available all day every day beginning this summer! Ive decided to take a break from public school teaching, spend more time singing and studying my voice / music. And take some more freelance type jobs. I am extremely compassionate and really like to provide that space for an animal to feel safe and welcome in my company. I like to build a relationship with animals and eventually find a language of communication where we seem to “get” each other.
“Kimberly is fantastic! Very communicative and attentive. She spent time playing with my dog after walks and sent great photos. I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“The best babysitter in Orlando hands down ! Gave me updates every time and gave me peace of mind while on vacation. So many photos and great with me changing times very often do to unexpected vacation I was on. One thousand percent I’ll be booking again in the next couple months. The best again like I said in Orlando with so much experience and understanding thank you”
“I found Paul almost at the last moment…my regular cat sitter wasn’t available but Paul was interested in watching my cat, though he usually watches dogs. It was a short visit but it turned out well for both him and my cat. I would highly recommend Paul for both cats and dogs due to his calm and friendly demeanor.”
“Natasha was great with our 8 month old Rott Juvia and would send pictures and/or updates about how her day went. Our Juju enjoyed her time as well!”
“Chayla did a great job of taking care of my two cats. One of them needed two medications, and it eased my mind to know that she had the skills and knowledge to handle it so well. Thanks, Chayla!”
“Carilyn and George have watched my baby several times. They are reliable and professional. They always send regular updates and pictures. I have complete peace of mind when leave him with them.”
“Cristal and her Husband were amazing with Finley and Remy. Would definitely use them again. Communication was great, pictures were very nice, and they even worked with us when we were running behind to pick them up. Lovely people and great sitters.”
About: I grew up caring for multiple large dogs and cats simultaneously. One of the two labs required extra care as he lost a rear limb when he was a puppy. I currently am blessed with a beautiful domestic long hair cat named Misty that has extra grooming needs and requires extensive daily brushing. My professional lifestyle allows me plenty of available time to meet the needs of any unique or variable schedules for both my own and your pets sitting and walking needs. I’m an experienced dog walker and actively engage with animals to keep their attention and gain their trust. For cats I groom and brush daily as well as reinforce positive behavior through praise training.
“Santo was the first person I have used off of rover and I hit the jackpot! She is awesome, sends updates daily and always responds very quickly! I was never worried about my pups, will definitely be using her services in the future!!!”
“Kevin was great. He has a big yard and a great space for dogs. I feel he really understands dogs and their habits and genuinely has fun taking care of them. I always have a few special requests regarding crating, diet, and travel, and Kevin was super accommodating, understanding, and respectful. I love that he limits the amount of dogs he accepts at one time, so I really felt that my dog was safe and well monitored. He also sent plenty of pictures!”
“Chester loves staying with Janniqua and we’re very happy to know our puppy is in great hands. Great communication and soon she’ll have two frenchies to watch :)”
“Amber took great care of my Lala. You can definitely tell she was taken care of with great care and she provided communication through out the stay plus great quality pictures. I will definitely recommend and have her take care of my baby anytime.”
“"Absolutely fantastic experience! Veronica took incredible care of both our dogs. It was clear from the many photos and updates she provided that they were happy, safe, and treated like family. She went above and beyond to make sure our high-energy dog got enough play and our timid dog felt comfortable. We came home to two very happy pups and will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to pets. I’ve spent years dog and cat sitting for family, friends, and people from my church while they travel so I’ve basically already been doing this, just without the app. Boarding is where I’m strongest. Whatever you’re away for a weekend trip, a long workweek, a stretch out of town your pet gets a quiet, pet free home and someone who’s actually paying attention to them, not just checking a box. It’s just me and my roommate here, no kids, no chaos, no other pets running around unless we’re talking about yours LOL. But if boarding isn’t what you need, I also do drop in visits and walks. A midday or evening walk for your dog, or a quick morning/night stop to feed and check on your cat while you’re out. My schedule’s flexible (I work fulltime but it’s not a rigid 9-5), so I can usually make mornings, evenings, weekends, whenever your pet needs me. I’m not the type to drop them off with food and a bowl and disappear for the day. I want to actually know their personality by the time you pick them up. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of pretty much every age and energy level, from the zoomies at 6am crowd to older pets who just want someone patient around and a quiet spot to nap. Routines matter to me too if your pet eats at a certain time, walks a certain route, or has a little quirk, I want to know about it and stick to it. I’ll keep you in the loop while I’m with them. Feeding on schedule, medication if they need it, litter box scooped, fresh water, the whole routine handled the way you’d do it yourself. Photo updates too, so you’re never left wondering how things are going. Can’t wait to meet you both and hear what your pet’s routine looks like. My schedule is flexible, so I’m available mornings, evenings, weekends, and throughout the week as needed. I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, preferences, and routine so they can feel as comfortable as possible. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether they’re staying in my home or I’m stopping by yours, I follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I provide a calm, pet free home for boarding and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention and care. I also send photo updates throughout their stay because I’d want the same thing if it were my pet. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands
“We left our dog with Nathaniel for more than two weeks and he took great care of him! He sent us updates and took care of him like his own. I would absolutely use Nathaniel for any future needs.”
“Amanda was so welcoming and gentle when first meeting them! She’s a very active sitter and that was perfect for my dogs because they LOVE their walks and they love to play. She communicated multiple times throughout the day with pictures and videos and even let us keep a tennis ball! I would absolutely bring them back to her again. They loved their stay!”
“It was my first time leaving Freya with a sitter. I was so nervous to leave her for a week straight. Destiny is THE BEST! She is very responsive with communication, sending picture updates, and overall just loving and caring for my girl❤️ In all her walk and cuddle pictures my pup looked like she was having the time of her life! She was happy, fed, and safe! I am so thankful to Destiny for taking care of Freya this past weekend and HIGHLY recommend her!”
“Mary is a wonderful pet sitter! I boarded my three dogs for 10 days with her & they were extremely well cared for. She has a very kind, gentle and friendly demeanor, lovely home and beautiful big backyard. All three dogs were happy, healthy, and very comfortable in their setting .I would highly recommend Mary!”
