In the evenings, we have more time for outdoor play, walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog enjoys most.

About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“I love sitting my dog Chop with Franceska & Daniel, he’s been with them several times now and he loves staying over. He really enjoys their company and I love having them sit since they seem to have such a genuine connection with my dog as well as Chops connection with their dog Atlas. It makes me excited that they are excited to sit for him every time I reach out :)”

“Alexandra was simply wonderful with our cat. In addition to daily photos, she sent us short videos with commentary, explaining where she had found him and how he was doing. We will definitely book her again when we need pet care. Highly recommended!”
“We’ve had Jessica watch our 2 cats twice now and she’s absolutely wonderful! She gives one of our cats a pill every night, makes sure they have food, water, and lots a cuddles and pets for the time she is there. We love having her watch our cats and would highly recommend. She even helped me out when a package was delivered in our mailbox and pick it up for me! We will definitely be hiring her for future watches. 😊”
“Lillyana was so sweet and took amazing care of my baby while I was out of town. Did a great job sending me photo updates and replied fast when I reached out. Highly recommend!!”
“Melanie is such a caring caretaker for my cat and such a reliable professional. Every day, she sent me updates and pictures. She always goes above and beyond. My furry baby is always happy with her!”
“Andrew deserves more than 5 stars - We were gone during the severe cold snap that hit Tallahassee, and he not only set the spigots to dripping, he came back and checked them on the day when the pipes were temporarily frozen to either shut our water off or adjust them again. Our shy indoor cats are also responding to his visits - something that usually takes a couple of year - so he his working his magic on befriending them. In a nut shell, he has watched over our house and pets like they were his own. It is much appreciated.”
“Lisa did amazing! She sent plenty of pictures, was very communicative, and our place was very clean when we got back. My cat also seemed very happy in the pictures and was happy when we got back. Zero complaints, would absolutely book again! ☺️”
“Natianna is wonderful. My cat Orion needs multiple meds on a daily basis and is very difficult to handle. She was very patient and caring with him. Definitely recommend her to pet parents looking for someone that is very nice and will be caring and patient with their furbabies. Thank you again, Natianna.”
“Very sweet and caring with my babies Allie and Loki. She took lots of good pictures while we were gone and gave one of my cats meds to! Highly recommend her and trust her with any future visits. :)”
“Taylor was awesome and made my vacation that much better knowing my dog was in good hands and good care. Gave me updates each visit and ensured me coco was in good hands while out of town. Definitely would recommend and wound use again!!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life. We adopted Frankie in June 2025. He’s very dog friendly. Frankie is about 45 pounds. He is pretty energetic and can play rough so we’d do best with dogs his size or larger that match his energy and play style. We are a pretty active household. We like to spend time in the backyard and go for walks around the neighborhood or on the trails. I typically work from home so your dog won’t be alone for long. We have done a lot of training since getting Frankie. I’ve become very knowledgeable on training and dog behaviors. I am certainly no expert, but you can trust will we care for your fur baby as if they were our own. If there are behaviors or training you are working on, I will be happy to continue that during their stay. Contact me for any additional information!

I will be sure to follow your typical routine so your dog is as comfortable as possible.

“Aylee was absolutely wonderful with Peaches! She accommodated us on very short notice, which we really appreciated, and she was incredibly communicative and friendly throughout the entire stay. We felt confident right away that Peaches was in great hands. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for. We would recommend Aylee to anyone and are already looking forward to bringing Peaches back in the future!”

“Ainla was recommended by our vet. Our two year old dog Sonny is a bit anxious when meeting new people/animals so we didn’t know how his first Rover dayboarding would go. Well, we can report that it went very well! Ainla gave us regular updates and went above and beyond. Sonny will definitely go to her again! 5 stars!”
About: I trained canine assistance dogs for 9 months and have over 25 years of experience. I’m very good with all types and personalities when it comes to our furry companions Working on switching my career path right now since there is a shift to corporate medicine in animal hospitals and as support staff I lost the feeling of being supported, or properly compensated myself. I recently started watching my neice from 6-4 Monday through Friday. Sometimes I will do delivery driving at night, but only if that is ok with you! I also have my medical marijuana card. Despite that review that says I agreed not to, I have never negotiated this. I’m an anxious, insomniac with cyclical vomiting syndrome. Some days I would not be ok without it🥺 I apologize if that does not work for anybody, but one must take care of themselves before they can care for others. This actually isn’t lucrative enough with my schedule. I ONLY do this because animals are my passion!!! Feel free to ask me any questions at all! I really am an open book! I have a 3/3 townhouse set up with lots of room for walks. Unfortunately there is no fence, but it is a very pet friendly environment.

About: I have owned or cared for my own dogs my entire life. Having lost my senior 'Stanley' last year I find myself longing for a dog's company and spirit. My own dogs have lived long lives - two for 18 years, one for 17 so I know how to give meds and care for their special needs. Stanley's petsitter recommended I try Rover - so here I am! I can come to your house, or bring your dog here to my 1/2 acre fenced in yard, with a dog door to the house and lots of time to share with your pet. I am retired and in Tallahassee or the vicinity walking or meeting up with friends. I have lots of free time to share with your pet. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard and a dog door to the house. I have a pool. I can come to your house if needed, or care for your dog here.
About: I've cared for furry friends since I could walk. My family raised me in an environment where caring for animals was a form of education, and one I'm happy to share every day.

My home is great for dogs. My old boy loves company. He's very gentle. I have access to walking trails as well. I am happy to accommodate for kennel trained or non-kennel trained.

“Judith is one of the best sitter that i know. She cared for both of my puppies Khloe and Kobe and she provided extraordinary care. Even when Kobe was sick, she took time out of her schedule to sit with me for the duration of his visit. Not only was she a support to Kobe, she assisted me as being a new mom of two puppies. I will definitely be utilizing her service in the future.”
“I was traveling and needed to someone for my furbaby to stay while we were out and about. I felt very comfortable leaving my furbaby Clyde with Sarah. Nice home with fenced yard and very sweet pooch of her own. Would definitely book again.”
“Diane was so welcoming and friendly. It was the first I had left my dog, Bijoux, with a stranger but she put me right at ease. Bijoux loved playing with Diane's son. Diane sent me some cute pictures of them playing. I am already looking at booking future dates for Bijoux with Diane.”
“Absolutely the best experience we could've asked for! I was unintentionally late and she was very understanding. Sent photos through out the day and made shiro feel at home. I would most certainly recommend to everyone.”
“Communication was great. At drop-off I truly felt my pup was in great hands. Sent pictures throughout the day to let me know how everything was going. Definitely will be a returning client.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my entire life, from small breeds (Boston Terrier) to big dogs (Great Pyrenees) and have always loved caring for them. I also have years of experience fostering dogs (Golden Retrievers), which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable to each dog’s unique personality and needs. As an FSU grad student, I’d love the opportunity to spend my free time giving dogs the exercise, attention, and companionship they deserve. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. Growing up, I fostered Golden Retrievers, which taught me a lot about caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve also had two different Great Pyrenees, so I’m very comfortable caring for large dogs and understand the importance of consistent exercise, feeding, grooming, and attention. On top of that, I’ve dog-sat for several friends’ dogs, giving me experience with different breeds, temperaments, and routines. Overall, I really enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Growing up fostering Golden Retrievers gave me experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve also had two Great Pyrenees, so I’m comfortable with large dogs and understand the importance of proper feeding, exercise, grooming, and attention. I’ve also dog-sat for several friends, which has given me experience adapting to different dogs, routines, and household environments. In a client’s home, I would follow their specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and other daily routines.

My goal is to make each pet feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away.
“Colette is wonderful with my sweet 17-year-old Yorkie, Bentley. He adores spending time with her—whether he’s boarding at her place or enjoying one of their walks together. She’s truly a lifesaver, and I’m so grateful for the love and care she gives him.”

“Stefani can by for a meet&greet walk with my girls before I schedule a visit while I have to be out of town. Feeling good about leaving my girls in her hands for visits and walks.”
About: I’ve loved growing up with dogs and miss taking care of my own! Friends & neighbors have trusted me to care for their furry friends and pet sitting is a simple pleasure of mine. I work full time with fluctuation in my hours through out the week, so I prefer pets who are ok being left alone throughout the day. I’d love to have a conversation about your specific pets and their needs! I get out every morning and evening for a walk and I’d love a pup to join me. I’m able to spend plenty of time with your dog getting them the exercise they need. I live in an apartment on a quiet street so I’d love to take your dog for walks and plenty of potty breaks. I’m comfortable with their crate if that is your preference as well.

About: Hi, I’m Analia! What separates me from other pet sitters is my unique experiences with animals while working and managing in a corporate setting (a pet store). I know very well the standard of care that the pickiest of clients (and animals!) expect, and my hope is to be allowed to extend such high standards and more to any pets in need of a buddy, and facilitate your peace of mind while they’re under my watch! My love for animals is boundless, and I can assure you that your animal will come back to you feeling super loved and appreciated too :) I am a happy and enthusiastic learner and most of all very, very adaptable to your pet’s individual needs and special requirements as well as your own personal day to day requests. Currently part time with a lottttt of free time in the afternoon! I am able to make drop in visits or walks as need be. I've also worked together with my partner (very loving and a stickler for rules- your rules!) to ensure we cover any gaps in timely care. My partner would be part of the meet and greet should we need to ensure your pets are comfortable and socialized if my visits before and after work do not suffice :) It goes without saying, I will heed whatever tips you have for your pets—they’re your babies after all!!— and I will absolutely make sure their safety and well-being is paramount while in my care! Never off a leash when outside, and always with my phone handy in case of emergencies. (Knock on wood!)
About: I have taken care of my family’s dogs for my entire life and started sitting for other families in college. I love being around big ol’ sweeties, so large breeds do not intimidate me! I have taken up fostering in recent years, so I am experienced in working with dogs who need special care for behavioral and anxiety issues. I have also owned and taken care of smaller pets like rabbits and fish. I am a full-time student and work part-time. However, I do have several long gaps throughout my days every week. I am an early riser so any morning medications and/or walks will never be an issue! In my home, I have about an acre of fenced in yard for my doggies to play. I also have a room dedicated to my dogs with heat and A/C so they can comfortably cool off from this Florida heat! It is important to me for dogs to get mentally stimulated and release energy through playtime and walks!
About: Just like you I have always enjoyed having furry friends around. Ever since I was a baby we always had cats roaming around the house. I started horseback riding and have over 100 hours volunteering and caring for the horses around the barn. This encouraged me to start an internship as an animal caregiver at an animal sanctuary in Palm City, FL. There I learned more about animal care, among a wide variety of animals. During this time I was also volunteering at the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast where I have spent over 150+ hours caring for the cats, and finding them furever homes. Now I have started pet sitting and don't regret it at all! While caring for your pet I will insure that they are happy, healthy, and wagging their tail! I am currently a full-time student at Florida State University, so I have a lot on my plate but plenty of time for your critters. I am available most weekdays and weekends. I keep my availability on the app pretty up to date. If you see a day marked off feel free to message me, and we can see if it works. In my home or clients' homes, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for pets. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed, removing hazards and securing valuables. I establish trust through gentle handling and consistent routines, making pets feel secure. Depending on the service, I provide engaging activities, regular exercise, and a cozy space for relaxation. Clear communication with pet owners about their preferences and any specific needs is also essential.

About: I have 2 sweet pups of my own and their names are Nala (Corgi mix) and Lois (Jack Russell mix). Dogs make me so happy! I've had extensive experience staying overnight to stay with dogs, walking dogs and hosting guest dogs into my home. I'd love to meet your furry friend!

I would never leave the dogs alone if I wasn't confident they would get along. I always love meeting new dogs and learning about their unique personalities!
“Colette is so wonderful with Hunter, he really enjoys his time at her house and it makes me feel good knowing he is so well cared for.

Can’t recommend her enough.”

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking with him again if I ever need someone to watch Diamond. I highly recommend him!”
About: I grew up around animals of all kinds — dogs, cats, cows, pigs, and more — so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have two spoiled pups of my own, Milly and RJ, and I treat every pet in my care like family. 🐾 I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy time outside. In the evenings, we enjoy walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog loves most. I know how important routines are for pets, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I’m dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! The dogs get plenty of opportunities throughout the day to go outside, play, explore the fenced-in yard, or relax inside with me while I work. In the evenings, we have more time for outdoor play, walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog enjoys most. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, and supervision. 🐾 I will care for your pet like they’re one of my own! 🐾 I know how important routines and comfort are for animals, so I do my best to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets in my home will receive lots of attention, love, supervision, and cuddles throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and pets are welcome to relax inside with me just like family. Treats are always given with owner permission, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions or preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.
About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“I love sitting my dog Chop with Franceska & Daniel, he’s been with them several times now and he loves staying over. He really enjoys their company and I love having them sit since they seem to have such a genuine connection with my dog as well as Chops connection with their dog Atlas. It makes me excited that they are excited to sit for him every time I reach out :)”

“Ainla is such a sweet person. From the minute our family met her we felt comfortable and knew she was the right pet sitter. During our pups stay Ainla sent pictures and sent updates to us. We did not worry at all. She answered all our questions and really went above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone and we will call her again.”
“We made arrangements to leave our dogs with Byron and his wife for the week. They have a fenced in yard that is great for the dogs. Our dogs were droped off. Byron was able to send pictures letting us know how our dogs were. They were well taken care of. We picked them and they were all happy. I would leave them with byron and his wife anytime.”
