“Carly and her family were absolutely amazing while watching my very vocal senior dog, Gracie, for 21 days. From the moment we dropped her off, I could tell she was in wonderful hands. They sent daily photos and updates, just the right amount of communication so I always felt informed without ever feeling overwhelmed. They handled her medication and any special needs with such care and attention. It was such a relief knowing Gracie was so well looked after and loved while we were away. I can’t recommend Carly and her family enough, truly exceptional care!”

“Jax seemed to have enjoyed his stay with Ambar. We booked Ambar for three nights and throughout his stay, she provided updates. Ambar was communicative, kind and sent pictures while we were away. When picking him up, he was happy and in good spirits. I can tell he enjoyed his time with Ambar.”

“Jennifer and her husband were awesome! Great communication, pictures sent daily, and her house and yard were very spacious and clean. Both of our dogs looked happy in pictures and were relaxed when we picked them up. Will definitely use their service again!”

“This was our second time leaving Pollux with Jesse. The first time was just for a weekend stay but this time he spent a whole 9 days with them! I was nervous about how he would do for that many days away from home. I got pictures and videos every day of his stay. He seemed to be having a blast with his new friends. After 9 days away from home I was sure this dog would have missed me--A word of warning: your dog might love it here so much they may be slightly unenthusiastic when they see you. Don't let it hurt your feelings too much, just take comfort in knowing that your pup is in great hands here! 😊”

“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.”

“I had to find someone to watch Bobbie VERY last minute. Brooke quickly accepted my last minute request and was happy to do so! I had never used Rover before or had left him with anyone outside of my family. I was nervous at first, but it was clear upon meeting Brooke that she is a cat lover! I knew Bobbie was in good hands and loved the daily picture updates she sent. Brooke even gave us a goodie bag after dropping Bobbie off! I will definitely be booking with Brooke again!”

“Zachary and his family cared for my pet during my travels on short notice. He and his family are very kind and loving towards animals. I greatly appreciate the care Zachary provided while on my family vacation! My pet returned happy and I could tell he was well taken care of! Would definitely use his services again. Thank you :)”

“Ariana was great with my two boys! I was so happy with the amount of updates and photos I got along the way, and the boys came home so exhausted from all the fun they had. Thank you Ariana!”

“Ingrid was amazing with our dog, Morty! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and made sure he was comfortable and happy the whole time. She was very attentive to his needs even giving him his ear meds which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Morty had a wonderful time with her, and we’ll definitely be booking with Ingrid again!”

“Kristin was amazing with my little fur baby! She took care of her like she was her own, and it was such a wonderful experience. She has the perfect setup for dogs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in great hands. Kristin kept me updated, gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure she was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Nathalia and her family were great with Chloe. She provided updates and photos while we were gone and Chloe seemed happy the entire time she was there. We would absolutely recommend Nathalia.”

“Erin was awesome with my dog, Lily! I booked her boarding services for a long holiday weekend and she was very accommodating in making sure leaving Lily behind was stress free. Her home is in a very convenient location when flying out of/into Orlando airport as well. She takes lots of pictures and videos to update you on what her and your pet are up to! I could tell Lily felt right at home ☺️ I’d recommend Erin’s services to anyone looking for a cozy and safe stay!”

“Booking Ginny and Tom to take care of our dog was the BEST thing we did to ensure a stress free vacation! They treated our dog like he was their own. I had never used Rover before and am now a devoted fan. My god had his own vacation! 100% recommend!”

“I felt very comfortable leaving my 16 week old puppy E.Z. with John. He has a closed in backyard and no other pets. He took very good care of E.Z. and I will use him again.”

“Naya was amazing! She sent a lot of videos, photos, and updates about our dog, Stella. She was very punctual, reliable, and I had no anxiety about leaving Stella with Naya and Bella for the week.”

“When our hotel failed us, Savannah was there to help! I am new to Rover and she was the first person with an amazing rating in the area. My pet loved her and her family. I would definitely come back to her if the need ever arises and would love to reunite her family with my best friend!”

“They were absolutely amazing. Mimi wasn’t feeling well when I left. She also gets anxious when I leave which doesn’t help her stomach issues. They did everything they could do to make her feel better. They constantly kept me updated. They sent a lot of photos and videos. I definitely recommend them. Can’t wait to use them again.”

“Nina did a great job watching our kitty, Sachi, over the holidays. Sachi is usually timid with cat sitters and won't make an appearance for several days, but Nina was good at seeking her out and earning her trust from the first day so that Sachi welcomed her each day. We feel so much better knowing that Sachi was getting some loving while we were gone. The litter box and area were clean and her food and water bowls were full when we got home. Thank you,Nina, we will definitely use you again in the future!”

“Our cats spend the week being lovingly looked after by Katelyn. She did exactly what we asked her to do to take care of our babies, coming on schedule to feed and cuddle them. Katelyn also stayed in contact with us, letting us know what she was doing each time she was with the cats.”


“Erin was great with my high energy dog, Bodie. He enjoys her mid-day visits and the positive attention. She was flexible with a last minute booking when my other sitter had an emergency pop up and is awesome to work with.”

“Very solid guy, showed me where my cat would be staying and took pictures and sent me them almost daily since I was out of the country; my cat clearly was calm and cared for the entire time and came back healthy and happy! Would definitely use as a service again”

“Thank you for taking care of the cats, Shirley. Your detailed report and many pictures showed you took great care of them. My mind is always at ease when I go out of town! Thank you!!”
“Tanisha is awesome!! Tanisha did a few drop in visits with our cats while we were out of town. She not only provided written and photo updates for each visit, but administered medication and played with our cats. Tanisha is friendly and trustworthy and I’d 100% recommend her and book her again :)”

“Charles was such a sweetheart the entire process! I got regular check-ins and my dog and cat were happy to meet him and well taken care of while I was away. Thanks again for all your help!”

About: I have loved animals all my life and have a genuine rapport with them. My clients become friends and keep me as their most trusted sitter for years. I would love to help you with your furry loved ones too! I am a retired Physical Therapist Assistant and after taking care of people for years now I really want to just take care of animals. They calm my soul and fill my heart with their unconditional love. I enjoy taking doggies for walks, or sitting with a kitty on my lap. My best memories involve somebody with four legs! ;o) I will stay in your home and care for all your needs while I am there. All pet care needs as well as watering plants, mail/package collecting, home security, whatever needs attention. I will leave your home clean and well respected.

“Maria was AMAZING, took great care of our two beloved dogs. Bella and Brady were let out, fed, and played with, over the Christmas season which was a huge blessing. Maria was friendly, professional, and a caring dog sitter. 10/10 would recommend and rebook with her. Thank you so much Maria!”


“As soon as Kennedy walked in our cat ran right over to her. She does not usually do this with strangers so we knew she would be a good fit for us. Her communication was excellent and lots of photos were sent. I highly recommend her!!!!”

“Kaia took great care of my cat and home while I was away on business. She followed all my instructions, was always on time, and took great photos! Highly recommend.”

“Dalia is great! She watched my house and my cat, Lana, overnight for a few days while I was on vacation. Dalia sent lots of updates and cute pictures, even a little action shot of Lana jumping off her tree! Lana is the only pet in the house but she’s a cuddler and very social cat and it was so comforting knowing Dalia was there to play with her and keep her company. It really helped me enjoy my time away. When I returned Lana was her usual self which tells me she was cared for like I’d never left. I will absolutely be asking Dalia again, and you should too if you’re looking for a reliable and communicative animal lover to take care of your best bud!”


“I'm impressed with how much care went into my time away from home. Amanda went above and beyond. I truly appreciate the effort she put into my animals and home while I was away. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She's also a wonderful communicator.”


“We had such a wonderful experience with Noelani! She took the best care of our cat Waffles while we were away for a week. Waffles is super social and loves human company, and Noelani went above and beyond - spending quality time with him, sending us thoughtful updates with pictures and videos, and giving him all the snuggles and lap time he loves. We told her he’s a fan of chin scratches, brushing, and Churu treats - and she made sure he got all that and more. Seeing photos of him happily curled up on her lap, kneading and purring, made us feel so at ease. She even visited on his birthday and brought him a special treat. We were blown away by her thoughtfulness. It was such a relief knowing Waffles was in kind, capable, cat-loving hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed kitty - and we feel so lucky to have found Noelani. Waffles can’t wait to hang out with her again!”

“This couple made our life easy when we attended a 3 day convention in Orlando! Dogs had a great time and they even did pick up and drop off for us. Super convenient and great dog care takers!”

“Naya has been great for Yuki. She definitely has a way with dogs. My dogs very guarded at first with any new person and Naya was very patient with her. Now my dog jumps out of the car and runs to her when she sees Naya. Your dogs would be in good hands with Naya!”

“Carly was absolutely amazing with our puppy, Sterling! From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, attentive, and experienced she is. She kept us updated throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was obvious Sterling was having a great time and was in excellent hands. When we got home, Sterling was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—always the best sign. Carly went above and beyond, and you can tell she genuinely loves what she does.

I’ve babysat my neighbors’ dogs many times, and they trust me to give their pets lots of love, attention, and care while they’re away. I always send picture updates so owners can feel comfortable knowing their dogs are happy and safe. I also have a friendly dog of my own who gets along well with other dogs, and with permission, I can bring my dog to interact and play with them to help keep them active and social. I’ve been an animal lover since I was in 3rd grade, and some people even call me a “dog whisperer” because animals naturally seem to trust and connect with me. I truly believe dogs are one of the most loyal and loving companions a person can have, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I am currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care.

About: Besides taking care of my own precious miniature schnauzer growing up, I have looked over dogs for several families for the past 10+ years with services including boarding, walks, visits and doggy day care for all kinds of breeds. I had to be inactive on rover for a couple of years due to moving but happy to be back! I have also worked as a receptionist/assistant at a Veterinary clinic where I interacted and looked over many different breeds that passed through or stayed over night. During this time I also learned a lot about how to assist dogs with medical issues and important signs of needing urgent care. I have a deep love for all kinds of animals, dogs (& cats!) especially, and would be more than happy to take care of your furry friends just as I would my own! I am more than happy to answer any questions that you may have and will always make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well looked after :) I can adjust my schedule to their wake up/meal times as well. On the weekends, I can take them out to dog friendly spaces if that is something they enjoy 😊 Before any stay, I make sure everything is set up for your pup’s arrival and try to make them as comfortable as possible. I have a dog gate to prevent them from getting out or from going anywhere I can’t keep an eye on them. For stays or visits, I don’t take any dog out off leash for walks and I make sure to put on their leash securely before opening the door. If they will be left alone for any reason, I will generally place them in their crate for their safety unless you are comfortable with them being out. I currently work part time and am usually home all day on Mondays and Fridays, and most of the day on weekends. I'm able to adjust my schedule to accommodate your pets routine better and would also be able to take them with me sometimes!

As a note, I live in a second floor apartment with my boyfriend (also a huge dog lover that has grown up with dogs). There are stairs and elevator if it is hard for your pup to get up the stairs. We also have a patio that has a pretty high railing, so it is safe, but if I bring your pup out there then they would be leashed and accompanied at all times to ensure their safety.

“Carly and her family were absolutely amazing while watching my very vocal senior dog, Gracie, for 21 days. From the moment we dropped her off, I could tell she was in wonderful hands. They sent daily photos and updates, just the right amount of communication so I always felt informed without ever feeling overwhelmed. They handled her medication and any special needs with such care and attention. It was such a relief knowing Gracie was so well looked after and loved while we were away. I can’t recommend Carly and her family enough, truly exceptional care!”

“Jennifer and her husband were awesome! Great communication, pictures sent daily, and her house and yard were very spacious and clean. Both of our dogs looked happy in pictures and were relaxed when we picked them up. Will definitely use their service again!”

“This was our second time leaving Pollux with Jesse. The first time was just for a weekend stay but this time he spent a whole 9 days with them! I was nervous about how he would do for that many days away from home. I got pictures and videos every day of his stay. He seemed to be having a blast with his new friends. After 9 days away from home I was sure this dog would have missed me--A word of warning: your dog might love it here so much they may be slightly unenthusiastic when they see you. Don't let it hurt your feelings too much, just take comfort in knowing that your pup is in great hands here! 😊”

“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.”

“Ariana was great with my two boys! I was so happy with the amount of updates and photos I got along the way, and the boys came home so exhausted from all the fun they had. Thank you Ariana!”

“Ingrid was amazing with our dog, Morty! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and made sure he was comfortable and happy the whole time. She was very attentive to his needs even giving him his ear meds which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Morty had a wonderful time with her, and we’ll definitely be booking with Ingrid again!”

“Erin was awesome with my dog, Lily! I booked her boarding services for a long holiday weekend and she was very accommodating in making sure leaving Lily behind was stress free. Her home is in a very convenient location when flying out of/into Orlando airport as well. She takes lots of pictures and videos to update you on what her and your pet are up to! I could tell Lily felt right at home ☺️ I’d recommend Erin’s services to anyone looking for a cozy and safe stay!”

“Great care for our fur baby. She really cares for your pup. Our pup suffers from separation anxiety and does not eat when we are away, this time he ate all his food and came home so so happy. We are grateful.”

“I’ve use Christine twice now, and she has given my boy the best care each time. She always sends daily updates with plenty of pictures, and I know she is always taking care of my baby as if he is one of her own. I could tell he has a great time in her care!”

“So grateful for Crystal and how well she took care of our boy. Received daily pictures and videos as well as updates. It made it easy to enjoy our trip knowing he was well taken care of. Will definitely book with Crystal again.”
