“Josephine and family took really good care of Shiloh my pup. Shiloh seemed to be living life and having loads of fun, he got his nails trimmed and a bath, 8 day's may have been a little long for him since he never experienced me being gone so long but, he played with other pups, overall im extremely impressed by the Love ❤️ this family gave Shiloh and he is now home lying on couch sleeping, tomorrow he'll be back to his home life, I'll definitely be checking for Josephine's availability from time to time.”
“Kailyn was awesome with my dogs!! They’ve been “hungover” all day after spending the weekend at her house! One became obsessed with one of her toys and she let him keep it! She is clearly a loving dog person and my dogs can’t wait for their next vacation!”
“Alistair watched my pup Luna over the Thanksgiving week and he took wonderful care of her. He was extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. She always looked happy and seemed to be getting lots of attention. He even gave her a bath before I picked her up and special fresh-food meals. He has outdoor kennels where the dogs spend time during the day, but they are spacious and have water, shelter, and bedding, so I had zero concerns with it (it's actually nice they get this outdoor time). He was also accommodating with my drop-off / pick-up times and the fact that Luna isn't fixed. Most importantly, Luna came home as the same happy and healthy girl she was when I dropped her off.”
“My dogs simply LOVE Amanda and her place. Nice fenced yard, pool, and lots of attention and care! My dogs (2) stayed with Amanda for 5 days, and they were very happy during their stay. Thank you Amanda!! All the best, we will definitely board them again if we need to travel, etc.”
“Great lil stay with Samantha. For a short notice request, she was available for the time and was also flexible with my drop off and pick up time. Listened to my needs and directions for Bandit to a tea. Would recommend to any body needing a dog sitter for the day!”
About: Hi pet parents! My name is Alexis. My first experience caring for pets was a little unorthodox being that my first pet was a chicken. But since then I've owned and cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, goats, horses, snakes, and lizards. I am absolutely certain that your pet would feel at home with me. I am comfortable medicating, orally and giving injections. I have spent time in the veterinary field so I am well versed with medications and other basic treatments. I am available when you need me and I would love to be your pet's new best friend! Meet and greets are encouraged but not necessary. I work full-time but am available for drop in visits or walks before 7:30 am or after 5:30 pm Monday through Friday or any time on weekends. For any other times/requests, please feel free to send me a message and I'll do my best to accommodate you and your pet. I meet your pets on the floor, at their level, so they can build trust with me. For safety, I ensure all pets have a collar or harness with an ID tag in the event of an emergency while walking. I am very cautious to make sure all pets are on a leash and keep their distance from other dogs while walking. All pets will be fed and watered and cared for as if they were my own.
“Amazing sitters. I’ve been in a bind the past month and they took my Charlie Bear in last minute with no issues. I receive daily video/photo updates about him and he looks so happy and healthy. Highly recommended!!!”
“Danielle is fantastic. Very friendly and trustworthy. We left our 10 year old Golden Retriever with her for a week and got daily updates and felt very assured knowing Danielle was taking care of her. She opens her home to your dog and makes it feel like home for them. We will definitely be using Danielle for our pet sitting needs from now on!”
“Blanca loved her stay with Toni and enjoyed playing with another big dog. She was really treated like part of the family and I know today she misses the attention. I will definitely use Toni again because I know my girl was safe and happy there. Highly recommend!!”
“Miranda was wonderful to my two dogs. I was nervous as this was the first time I’ve ever left them with someone. She sent several videos for me to see my babies and they were always so happy. I’ll definitely use Miranda in the future.”

Safety, trust & environment I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment.

“We left two elderly dogs with Taylor for the weekend. It’s a little bit of a drive BUT the care was exceptional, I even received a report card for each dog that was cute and a nice touch. I think one dog wanted to stay lol. I would use her again.”
“Maria ia awesome! We were very happy with Bella"s stay. Bella looked awesome when we picked her up and very excited. I recommend Maria to anyone looking for a great sitter. We will be using her in the future”
“I just cannot overstate how please I was leaving Gee, our dog, with Chari. This was the first time we used Rover. It could not had gone better. Chari helped us before the visit to calm our concerns. Gee immediately felt at home when he was cheerfully greeted. Everything went so smoothly. Great Host. Great home. Happy dog. THANK YOU!!”
“If I could give Doris more than five stars, I would!! She was amazing! My pups absolutely loved her--she took such great care of them that I was wondering whether they'd be willing to leave her beautiful home! I'm a very nervous pet mom when I leave my pups, but Doris was so reassuring. It was such a relief to find an experienced and wonderfully caring dog sitter. She's the best!!!”

“Stephanie was great taking care of our two cats! We met up with her to teach her how to take care of the cats and to give her a copy of keys. She came in for her scheduled visit each day and provided a picture of both cats so we didn't have to worry about them. She kept the litter boxes clean, the cats fed and watered, played with them, and brushed them. Above all, our kitties seemed to trust her and enjoy her company. We would definitely ask Stephanie to drop in for us again!”
“Hailey is amazing. She was very communicative. She was on time and mostly what I appreciate about Hailey is how much she enjoyed being with my animals. I felt completely comfortable leaving town with Hailey in charge. I will use her again.”

“Zakary was a wonderful dog sitter. They communicated before my stay as well as during my stay. They took amazing photos of my dogs. They have a wonderful yard in the front of the house with obstacles for your dogs in a very safe gated area. I would absolutely use them again during my next trip in Gainesville. Oh, and they gave my dogs, home-cooked chicken and rice with my permission.”
“Samantha did an amazing job with our dog Butters. She was super flexible, reachable and easy to work with. We could tell our dog had a good time and felt safe. The pictures of him hanging out with the family really showed how much love and care they all put into helping with the dogs. -Thanks Again!!!”

My background includes veterinary medicine, pet boarding, shelter and rescue work, pet sitting, and animal care at Walt Disney World's Best Friends Pet Care. I specialize in providing personalized care for senior pets, anxious pets, and those with medical needs who may not thrive in a traditional boarding environment.

“We highly recommend Kailyn! She took excellent care of our two dogs. She is friendly and reliable and our dogs were excited to see her the next time she took care of them. So, we all like her!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up helping care for both my own dogs and my grandmother’s, which gave me hands-on experience from an early age. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs ranging from small breeds to extra-large breeds, each with different personalities and needs. I’m also a hobby breeder, which has expanded my experience with puppies and adult dogs, including feeding routines, exercise, basic training, socialization, and providing attentive day-to-day care. I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own dogs every day, so I’m accustomed to regular feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and giving each dog individual attention. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to make time for drop-ins, walks, daycare, and boarding throughout the week while making sure every pet gets the care and attention they need. I have fenced acreage and playful dogs of my own. I let them out plenty of times throughout the day to use the bathroom and release some energy.
“Samantha is wonderful! She is flexible, easy going, and shows sincere care and love for my dogs, Teddy and Lou. I found her very helpful in terms of transportation for the dogs too. My dogs enjoyed their time with her and her husband. I am definitely planning to use her services again.”
“We were so nervous to have other people take care of our dogs, but we decided to try Rover.com and we came across Alexandre and Maria O's profile. We had a wonderful experience, our dogs were taken care of extremely well. They showed them love and kept us informed throughout the day with updates and photographs. We would love to have Alexandre and Maria take care of our dogs again and highly recommend you use their services.”
“I am very happy with Teddy's recent daycare stay with Chair! Chari is communicative, flexible, and accommodating. Teddy was really taken with her and her boyfriend and even attempted to follow them into the house when they went to retrieve his things as they were returning from a walk. I was a little worried about what Teddy's behavior might be due to him being puppy with a lot of energy. Chari reassured me several times that everything would be fine, and it certainly was. I plan to use Chari again for daycare for both, Teddy, and my dog Lou. I highly recommend Chari for pet care!”
“Maria is FABULOUS with both animals and people. She always goes above and beyond in terms of her care of both my dog, Lou, and I. Maria provides daycare to Lou during the week. Lou enjoys playing (and sunbathing) in Maria's big back yard along with her two sweet standard poodles and also enjoys watching television with her children. The moment Lou met Maria he fell in love with her, and he runs straight to her door and to her the moment we arrive at her home (after being welcomed and inspected by her poodles, of course). I am repeatedly using Maria to care for Lou and will continue to do so as long as she is willing to take us in. I tell her often I am so grateful to have found her.”
“Miranda was great! She took care of my dog and three cats like they were her own. They came back clean and no worse for wear. She worked with my schedule and was very flexible. I appreciated all help and understanding!!”

About: Thank you for clicking on me, welcome! 🫶 My name is Suchitel but everyone calls me Suchi 😊 I have taken care of/owned dogs for over 9 years. Ranging from taking care of puppies right out of the womb to adult dogs. I have experience with handling up to 5 dogs at a time and being able to recognize a dog’s social cues. I can adapt to any type of dog.. if they are very active, I’ll run alongside them. If they are a couch potato, I’ll happily become one with them 🤗 I am currently a stay at home mom to my toddler and my 4 dogs! My day revolves around caretaking so I guarantee your pet will be in a home surrounded by the most love, attention and care while you’re away! We have 7+ acres of fenced land for your dog to run around and play, although no dog in my care (including my own) stay outside without my supervision. Our dogs frequently go outside for pee/play breaks. My dogs will have minimal interaction (unless you don’t mind a play date 😊) with your pets as mine are in a separate area of the house. A lot of my time and attention during the day, every day, is caring for my pets! I’ll put in the same amount of care and attention to yours, as if they are my own, receiving lots of love, cuddles, and of course, play time!
About: I have had pets most of my life. As a child a cocker spaniel named Winston. Then a golden retriever named Honey. Fish, hermit crabs, etc. I live on 1.5 acres in the swamp on Lake Rousseau it is spacious and beautiful. I would love to care for dogs part time and enjoy them and also my 5 kids I have half time would also give lots of love. I work from home managing AirBNB’s so am available all the time basically and not stuck to a computer. I can give the dogs plenty of love and time to run and play outside. Able to pick up and drop off for an extra fee Able to bathe for an extra fee Look forward to being a dog dad to your little ones soon :) I am home almost all of the time. I raise 5 kids week on and half and my business is remote and low input. I have time to care for a dog or two with a lot of intention. I would also enjoy the company. They are welcome inside my home and out. If outside I would accompany them so I can keep an eye on them but they have plenty of room to roam and lots of smells in nature. I could take on walks as needed but I have a lot of space for them to run and throw a ball too.

I’ve grown up surrounded by cats and dogs, and today I’m a proud pet parent to 6 dogs, 3 cats, and a variety of other amazing animals—including sugar gliders, turtles, fish, mice, snakes, and lizards. 🩷 I have cared for dogs of all ages—from fragile newborn puppies to seniors needing extra love and patience. I’m experienced in providing special care for older pets and am attentive to any unique needs or quirks they may have, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. With over 6 years of professional experience as a veterinary technician, animal care specialist, and groomer, I bring both expertise and genuine compassion to every pet I look after. Whether it’s walks, feeding, overnight stays, administering special care, or simply giving them extra affection, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently working off of my own schedule so I have a ton of flexibility! I can do same day appointments and adjustments if needed! When providing care in either my home or a client’s home, my priority is to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow any special instructions provided—whether it’s feeding routines, medication, or unique care needs—so your pet’s normal routine is maintained as closely as possible. I give each pet plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and if treats are allowed, I’m happy to use them as part of positive interactions.

“Stephanie is the best. Super consistent, always on time, our dogs love her, and she’s helped in so many ways from our everyday walks, to house sitting for the dogs, special requests like feeding when we can’t. We don’t know what we’d do without her.”
About: I have been dog sitting on Rover for the past ten years and have loved it always. I give pet owners updates 2-3 times a day with pictures or videos of your pet so you dont have to worry about them when you’re away. I love taking care of all animals, rowdy or calm! I live right across from a huge fenced-in dog park which we can explore anytime. We can run around all day, and when we're all tired, we can lounge on the couch and relax. I take daily walks, which your pet is welcome to join. I take care of pets like they're my own, I just love them so much! My house will be like a home away from home for your pet. I am home working on writing and grading every day so other than a few hours throughout the day, I am on site I am home the entire day to care for your pup. I will play or snuggle with the pets based on their energy and preferences! They will get treats as often as you tell me to give them (I know some pups are on a diet so I will wait for you to say if it’s okay to give any treats). They will go outside as often as they need and spend all winter inside a warm living room with me
About: I have experience with both dogs and cats. I enjoy being around them and loving them. I’m reliable and dependable. I listen to the owners and their instructions on the care of their fur babies. We are retired and have a fenced yard to keep your fur babies safe as possible. We have a 3 year old golden retriever and we throughly enjoy playing and watching her have a little freedom in our yard I’m able to do care at your home. I’m dependable and reliable. We currently own a 3 year Golden Retriever who we love immensely. I will care for your fur baby like I do my own
About: I've loved and taken care of all different kinds of animals my whole life! I started at 14 taking care of horses in my 4-H club. I've grown up living with dogs, cats and even a bird or two. After I turned 20, I finally got my very first personal dog. I love her more than life itself! I am currently part time employed and job hunting! I am taking this time to grow as a person and possibly start my own business. I am in college part time for business, but I always make time for the important things in life (loving on my pup) I know what it’s like to need to be away from your baby. I have a large fenced yard for your pup to run and/or a large, cozy bed for them to snooze. Whatever fits your pup best!
About: What sets me apart is the personal attention, patience, and genuine love I give every pet in my care. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and happy. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs extra playtime and exercise, a calm companion, puppy potty breaks and basic routine reinforcement, or gentle care for a senior pet, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning and evening walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so pet sitting is something I genuinely look forward to—not just another job. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, dependable care while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure pets have fresh water, appropriate meals, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’m also careful about doors, gates, leashes, medications, and anything else that could affect their safety. For senior pets, puppies, or pets with special routines, I’m happy to provide extra attention and follow detailed instructions. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

I have 4 American bulldogs all different ages that require multiple potty trips all at different times therefore I’m used to going in and out at all times of the day/ night
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to bearded dragons, sugar gliders, and parrots, and I’ve always had a huge soft spot for animals of all kinds. 🐾 I worked at Pet Supermarket from the time I was 16 until I was 22, and I also spent a year and a half in vet tech school. Caring for animals has always been something I truly love, and I’m happiest when I’m around them! I know how much our pets mean to us because they’re family, and I treat every pet I care for just like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure they feel happy, safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away—and to give you plenty of peace of mind along the way! ❤️ I currently work full time remotely so I have plenty of time to walk, feed, bathe and play to make sure your pets needs are fully taken care of while also having fun! I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and at home. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so I can care for them in the way they’re most comfortable with. I’m very attentive and always keep a close eye on pets, whether we’re playing, going for a walk, or relaxing at home. When caring for a pet in their own home, I’m respectful of their space and their normal routine and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while their family is away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so communication is really important to me. I’m happy to send regular updates and pictures so you can see that your fur baby is happy, safe, and being spoiled while you’re gone! 🐾❤️

About: Hey! My name is Dylan, and throughout all my years of life I have always been around dogs. My parents always had one, and as an adult I have owned and trained multiple. Being around them has given me lots of experience on care, play, and training, and I love hanging out with them! I'm currently self employed and am available all days of the week! My schedule is very flexible and can meet your pup's needs I can easily crate your pup when needed, I can administer medications if your dog or cat is currently taking them, and I am more than happy to follow any special instructions you may have!

About: Howdy! I’m a EMT student trying to incorporate my love for animals in with keeping in shape for my next career. I’ve lived and worked on farmland all my life — I’m not phased by aggressive *livestock*, much less a reactive dog! I spend a lot of my time currently training dogs for people in need, and working with shelters to help their nervous dogs develop some adoptable skills. I’ve also been volunteering with disabled animals (wildlife and domestic alike) since I was in middle school, in rehab facilities and as a home foster, and I’m very accustomed to delivering meds to all the most resistant patients. They’re a part of my daily function — they eat when I eat, I don’t go for runs without them, and if I’m going to any pet-friendly store they can behave in, they’re already in the car. My pets and any others in my care are not only my first priority in terms of safety, but in fun! My career and lifestyle has had me naturally trained in pet aggression and reactivity, including muzzles and muzzle training, crate training, heavy leash pulling etc.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, including fostering puppies and caring for older dogs. I’ve trained all of my own dogs and have also helped friends and coworkers with basic training and behavior. I’ve provided dog sitting, house sitting, and drop-in care for coworkers and family members. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and helping dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. I also send regular photo updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and safe. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own dogs with walks, playtime, and structured routines. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. I live in an apartment and keep a clean, safe space for pets. I use baby gates when needed to create separate areas and make sure every dog is comfortable. My two friendly dogs love to play, but I’m experienced with introductions and always supervise interactions. I also give daily walks and sometimes visit the dog park during quieter times. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs and will separate dogs if one needs a break. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates so owners know their pets are safe and happy.

“Josephine and family took really good care of Shiloh my pup. Shiloh seemed to be living life and having loads of fun, he got his nails trimmed and a bath, 8 day's may have been a little long for him since he never experienced me being gone so long but, he played with other pups, overall im extremely impressed by the Love ❤️ this family gave Shiloh and he is now home lying on couch sleeping, tomorrow he'll be back to his home life, I'll definitely be checking for Josephine's availability from time to time.”
“Kailyn was awesome with my dogs!! They’ve been “hungover” all day after spending the weekend at her house! One became obsessed with one of her toys and she let him keep it! She is clearly a loving dog person and my dogs can’t wait for their next vacation!”
“Alistair watched my pup Luna over the Thanksgiving week and he took wonderful care of her. He was extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. She always looked happy and seemed to be getting lots of attention. He even gave her a bath before I picked her up and special fresh-food meals. He has outdoor kennels where the dogs spend time during the day, but they are spacious and have water, shelter, and bedding, so I had zero concerns with it (it's actually nice they get this outdoor time). He was also accommodating with my drop-off / pick-up times and the fact that Luna isn't fixed. Most importantly, Luna came home as the same happy and healthy girl she was when I dropped her off.”
“My dogs simply LOVE Amanda and her place. Nice fenced yard, pool, and lots of attention and care! My dogs (2) stayed with Amanda for 5 days, and they were very happy during their stay. Thank you Amanda!! All the best, we will definitely board them again if we need to travel, etc.”
“Great lil stay with Samantha. For a short notice request, she was available for the time and was also flexible with my drop off and pick up time. Listened to my needs and directions for Bandit to a tea. Would recommend to any body needing a dog sitter for the day!”
About: Hi pet parents! My name is Alexis. My first experience caring for pets was a little unorthodox being that my first pet was a chicken. But since then I've owned and cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, goats, horses, snakes, and lizards. I am absolutely certain that your pet would feel at home with me. I am comfortable medicating, orally and giving injections. I have spent time in the veterinary field so I am well versed with medications and other basic treatments. I am available when you need me and I would love to be your pet's new best friend! Meet and greets are encouraged but not necessary. I work full-time but am available for drop in visits or walks before 7:30 am or after 5:30 pm Monday through Friday or any time on weekends. For any other times/requests, please feel free to send me a message and I'll do my best to accommodate you and your pet. I meet your pets on the floor, at their level, so they can build trust with me. For safety, I ensure all pets have a collar or harness with an ID tag in the event of an emergency while walking. I am very cautious to make sure all pets are on a leash and keep their distance from other dogs while walking. All pets will be fed and watered and cared for as if they were my own.
“Amazing sitters. I’ve been in a bind the past month and they took my Charlie Bear in last minute with no issues. I receive daily video/photo updates about him and he looks so happy and healthy. Highly recommended!!!”
“Danielle is fantastic. Very friendly and trustworthy. We left our 10 year old Golden Retriever with her for a week and got daily updates and felt very assured knowing Danielle was taking care of her. She opens her home to your dog and makes it feel like home for them. We will definitely be using Danielle for our pet sitting needs from now on!”
“Blanca loved her stay with Toni and enjoyed playing with another big dog. She was really treated like part of the family and I know today she misses the attention. I will definitely use Toni again because I know my girl was safe and happy there. Highly recommend!!”
“Miranda was wonderful to my two dogs. I was nervous as this was the first time I’ve ever left them with someone. She sent several videos for me to see my babies and they were always so happy. I’ll definitely use Miranda in the future.”
“We left two elderly dogs with Taylor for the weekend. It’s a little bit of a drive BUT the care was exceptional, I even received a report card for each dog that was cute and a nice touch. I think one dog wanted to stay lol. I would use her again.”
“Maria ia awesome! We were very happy with Bella"s stay. Bella looked awesome when we picked her up and very excited. I recommend Maria to anyone looking for a great sitter. We will be using her in the future”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young with my family pets. I became a facility dog handler to my dog Gavin in 2021. He has since retired when we moved to Gainesville in 2026. New to the city I am looking for something to do with me time. I have vast training in dog and animal behavior due to being a facility dog trainer. Gavin has retired from service dog work and is always in need of someone to play with. Gavin is well trained and would love to have a playmate for the weekends. I would love to take care of your pet! I currently work a full-time job for Norton Healthcare. I work 8am-4:30pm and am looking for weekend work! I would love to provide your pet with a check-in, walk or overnight stay for a day or long weekend. I have a fenced in yard and currently only have one male 5 year old neutered yellow lab. He is a trained facility dog. Many of my fellow facility dog trainers and handlers have trusted me to care for their dog.
