“Marcela was just awesome with Charlie. He is a very active run free kind of dog and she had him running. You could almost see him smiling in the videos she sent us of him! He had the time of his life. Would highly recommend her for your pet. We will definitely be using her again.”
“This was our dogs second stay with Britney. Luna loves staying there and Britney is fantastic. She sends pictures and videos along with messages on how everything is going. We have zero concerns leaving our dog there!”
“Angela was super sweet and I loved the photos of my cat while we were gone! My cat hasn’t ever stayed with a stranger for that long without us and he was a little mischievous with some hiding spots but Angela handled it very well by giving him his time to come around to her. Highly recommend!! :)”
“I cannot say enough about the FANTASTIC care Floyd provided for my dog. Floyd walked her multiple times per day, sent me updates twice a day & responded to every inquiry I had. Floyd’s home is immaculate, his backyard is fenced & safe for animals. I HIGHLY recommend Floyd for the care of your animals (I won’t use anyone else). All I can say to Floyd & his wife is: “Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!””
“Monica was an absolute pleasure. She was so accommodating. I was able to see her house before booking at both of our availability. She sent me a bunch of pictures, kept me updated on my baby’s day to day. Thank you Monica for being such an amazing host for my baby. Will never book with anyone else!”
About: Your Pet’s Home Away From Home 🐶🐱❤️ Hi! I’m Emily, and I’d love to care for your pets while you’re away! I’m a lifelong animal lover and have had pets since I was 5. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and all kinds of furry friends over the years. I’ve also volunteered and fostered with animal shelters for several years, so I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities, ages, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers to curl up on the couch and get some extra love, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. 🐾 I have 2 fur babies of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pets. I’m happy to follow your normal routine, including meals, walks, medications, playtime, and plenty of cuddles! I have a fenced-in yard and live in a great neighborhood for walks. I’m also very flexible and can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. 📸 I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder what your fur baby is up to! I’d love to meet you and your pets and hopefully become your go-to sitter! ❤️🐾 I currently work a very flexible job, which allows me time to come home and take care of my fur babies. I look forward to meeting yours! I have a fenced in yard, live in a great neighborhood for walking with sidewalks, and have my own fur babies to keep yours company!
“Shelly did a GREAT job with my Molly. She sent a few pictures while I was gone and kept me up to date. I only hope she continues to host pets so Molly can continue to be taken care of while I'm gone. Thanks Shelly for all you did.”
“We had a great experience with dana. She was very caring and kind with Zane. We will definitely using her again in the future. We appreciate all her texts and pictures made me really feel it ease while I was away. Thank you so much dana”
“Barbara is amazing! She is very sweet kind and loving to my little pup. She is super accommodating and sent pictures and videos for me to see. Ciccio was very comfortable and happy. I highly recommend her and I will definitely use her again.”
“Robin is an absolute angel! She watched our dog Buddy for 10 days, and was amazing with him. Buddy is a rescue and a very nervous little guy, so Robin had us bring him over for short little stays with her prior to our vacation, so that Buddy could get adjusted to us leaving him for a period of time. She truly cares about the pets she watches, and I felt like she cared for Buddy as if he were her own. Robin kept us updated on how he was doing, and included photos. We missed Buddy terribly while we were away, but we knew he was in safe, capable, and loving hands. I would recommend Robin to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and would not hesitate to book with her again. Five stars is not enough! :)”
“We can't thank Maria enough for her kindness and flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request for Pluto's care. From the moment we connected, she was beyond wonderful—thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely caring. She kept us updated throughout the entire reservation with pictures, giving us complete peace of mind. Pluto was clearly happy and well cared for! On top of that, Maria has the most gentle giant of a dog, who made Pluto feel right at home. The experience was seamless, and we truly appreciate her warmth and dedication. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again! Highly recommended!”
“Teri was wonderful with our boy Maverick. She exceed our expectations. We were comfortable and felt secure that our boy was in good hands. We travel quiet often and will be using her again!”
“Vivian did a great job keeping me updated on how everything was going with our dog. She didn't just give me general updates, but instead, she provided details and made me feel at ease. I was confident that our dog was being well taken care of.”
“Taylor was amazing! She was in constant communication with me and sent me daily updates and pictures. Taylor and her family were very sweet and loving and made my dog feel right at home!”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with the care and attention our little dachshund was given during her stay with Ana. Every day Ana sent an update with pictures. I would highly recommend Ana to care for your pet.”

Angela was extremely accommodating and worked with me to get the coverage I needed. She is a warm and caring woman and I have complete confidence that she will care for my pets as if they were her own. Thank you.”
“Channing IS THE BEST!!! Our beautiful cat Katie, has been lovingly cared for by Channing, on multiple, extended vacations that we have taken, away from Florida. She is 5++ STARS, in every category!!! We shall call on Channing, again and again!”
“They were able to help us on short notice, which we really appreciated. They stayed at our apartment to care for our three cats and fish while we were away, and our pets were safe when we returned. We appreciate their flexibility and willingness to help during a time when we needed someone quickly. Thank you for taking care of our pets.”

“Over the past year Tom has taken care of our cat Jesse several times. He goes above and beyond in making sure everything is ok and the communication is great! I highly recommend Tom and he is already scheduled for our next trip! Thanks TOM...Jesse looks forward to your drop in visits🐈🐈”
About: I have had more than 15 years experience taking care of dogs, cats, and bunnies. I enjoy taking care of animals because they are just like babies, they need extra love and attention because they’re not always able to communicate their needs. So one of my greatest passions is making sure that every animal I interact with in any way feels loved, safe and happy!
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and understand that each one has their own personality, preferences, and comfort level. I have experience with cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats who need a slower pace and extra attention. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to handle feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and companionship while they’re away. I’m especially mindful of shy or independent cats and take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers quiet companionship, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I also provide consistent updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is in good hands.
“Courtney was wonderful with my little guinea pig, providing him with great care and giving him his oral medication and eye drops. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Duke was in good hands.”
“Ana did and excellent job taking care of my dogs. One is older and with a lot of health problems. She was very patient and knowledgeable caring for her.

“Wonderful day care experience. We are getting ready to board Bingo for the first time later this week and because he had never been boarded, we wanted to get him used to being without us and his upcoming stay with Floyd and Connie. After bonding with him, they sent us some great photos of which immediately put my mind at ease. Bingo seemed happy and not at all fearful, as we thought he’d be. I’m sure the time he will be staying with them will be a good one.”
“Angela and her daughter were wonderful with my dog Lily. Lily is very shy when she first meets someone and they were so gentle with her, and took the time to get to know her. By the time I got back to pick Lily up, Lily was best friends with Angela and her daughter. Angela sent me photos and kept me posted on how Lily was doing. It was a wonderful experience! Thank you for taking care of Lily!”
“Excellent. Teri is a great care giver. Easy transition going in & out. She sent us pictures and updates. Teri is a good person who has rescued 3 dogs previously to give them a loving home. Our world needs more people like her. I will definitely recommend and rebook with Teri.”

“We were visiting the area for my son's golf tournament. When we arrived at our "pet-friendly" vacation rental home, we were told that the owner does not allow pets to be left alone in the home AT ALL. We were so flustered and worried we wouldn't be able to leave the house to watch our son. Luckily, Shelley made this terrible inconvenience manageable by allowing us to drop off our dog at her home for a few hours each day while we watched our son's tournament. Shelley was super responsive, even very late in the evening, and cared for our dog as if it were her own. I would absolutely recommend Shelley to anyone and will happily re-book when we are in the area. Thank you so much, Shelley!”
“We are so grateful to have found Taylor to take care of our fur baby Bowser. He has really bad separation anxiety so he can’t be left alone. Taylor made sure he received lots of play, attention, and love. He seemed very happy when we picked him up. She sent lots of photos and was very communicative. We will be calling her again next time we need a sitter 🫶”

“Jennifer was great. Very sweet and gentle girl. First time for our 15 year old dog with a sitter. She kept the pictures and videos coming all day, putting our minds at ease. The location was nice and her home is immaculately clean. We were able to spend a very enjoyable whole day away from our rental.”
“Bryanna took wonderful care of Gilda, my 10 month old English Cocker Spaniel, for two days this week. Bryanna communicated extremely well. She provides secure indoor and outdoor space, and lots of play activities. After the first day, Gilda was extremely eager to return to Bryanna’s care for the second day. And, after the second day, Gilda was exhausted from 2 straight days of play and activities. I will book again with Bryanna, and recommend that you book with her too. Have fun in Punta Gorda, while knowing your precious fur baby is being well cared for by Bryanna.”
“We were very happy with the care Cosmo received from Barbara. She welcomed him into their home and treated him like their own. She’s very friendly and easy to communicate with. I will be using her again when the need arises.”
About: I have provided care to all types of dogs for over 25 years. I also have quite a bit of care to elderly dogs especially those that need medications or assistance. I love walking dogs.

“Brittany was very accommodating even though it was a quick reservation! I appreciated her help also in navigating the Rover app and getting that submitted! She’s friendly, caring and knowledgeable. I was able to go for the day and celebrate my birthday with friends and family and feel comfortable with my Macie in her care! I will definitely book with her again!!❤️🐾”
“Ana was amazing! We met her a couple days before and she and her dog Lex immediately connected with our pup, and then this morning when we went to drop our pup off, she happily trotted in the house to meet Lex instead of freaking out like she normally does when we leave her! She had a great day, we got a bunch of pictures, and she was clearly very happy when we picked her up. Very glad to have found Ana!”
About: I only take in one pet (and siblings) at a time. I think it's less traumatic for the pets if there are not other animals around when they are separated from their family. I do everything that I can to make the experience fun and loving. I love both cats and dogs for different reasons. I’ve had pets my entire life until recently. Since most of my pets died of old age, I am experienced with geriatric pets and their special needs as well. I follow your instructions on pet-care. I've watched many dogs and cats in different homes with completely different schedules and rules. I am an early bird so if you have dogs, I like to walk early before it gets too hot. But again, if your dog is used to sleeping in, I can work with his schedule. I do this for fun as well as extra income. I only take up to two pets at a time and they must be siblings. I may take in a third depending on circumstances. Just ask! I am mostly home with the pets. I even have my groceries delivered! I go the gym most mornings for about 1.5 hours. I started pet-sitting to fill the void after my last pet died. I’ve been pet and house sitting professionally around the world since 2016. I board dogs or cats in my home in Port Charlotte. I love to travel and am open to pet sitting in your home anywhere in the world, as long as it's somewhere I'm interested in. I am always interested in Eagle Rock/Glassell Park, CA, as that's where my son lives. I am an early riser so I like to walk the dogs as the sun is rising and then again at dusk. I have a large fenced-in yard so the dogs have a lot of freedom, but I don't leave them alone outside. I am working on house projects so I am almost always around. I am accepting up to two sibling dogs/cats for boarding in my home. I prefer crate-trained dogs as they feel more secure in their crates and it's less traumatic for them to be left at a stranger's house. I am flexible on this depending on the age of your dogs. Most of the time, they are free. I am finding that most dogs just follow me around since I am actively working on the house. The house is fairly new to me so there are many projects to be done!
“Miranda was wonderful to work with! She took great interest in our dog; gave walks, playtime and cuddles. She has a clean safe home with a nice fenced in yard. Provided pictures and was quick to respond to any outreaches and was very accommodating. We would absolutely work with her again when in the area. Highly recommend!”
About: Your dog will enjoy every minute of their vacation at our home!!!! We always enjoy meeting new friends and introducing them to our chocolate labs. I am retired and would love to spend my days with your fur babies. I love animals and especially dogs. My heart aches that they live such a short life. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door going out into our backyard. Our 2 chocolate labs would love to entertain your baby!!! I can also crate your dog if you prefer. We live on a quiet culdesac which is ideal for dog walking.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and truly love being around animals. From a young age, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, including puppies and senior dogs. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible and present throughout the day. Pets in my care are rarely left alone and get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I’m able to accommodate regular routines, feedings, and any special needs, and I’m available for daytime care, drop-ins, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment for every pet in my care. I have two friendly, well-socialized dogs and always introduce new pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure everyone is comfortable. I closely supervise interactions, follow each pet’s routine, and can crate your dog if needed. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

I have a small part of my yard fenced but there’s plenty of space for your pets to run around. I have a 4 chickens that roam around but I will lock them up if needed and I have a small senior dog.
About: Your Pet’s Home Away From Home 🐶🐱❤️ Hi! I’m Emily, and I’d love to care for your pets while you’re away! I’m a lifelong animal lover and have had pets since I was 5. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and all kinds of furry friends over the years. I’ve also volunteered and fostered with animal shelters for several years, so I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities, ages, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers to curl up on the couch and get some extra love, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. 🐾 I have 2 fur babies of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pets. I’m happy to follow your normal routine, including meals, walks, medications, playtime, and plenty of cuddles! I have a fenced-in yard and live in a great neighborhood for walks. I’m also very flexible and can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. 📸 I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder what your fur baby is up to! I’d love to meet you and your pets and hopefully become your go-to sitter! ❤️🐾 I currently work a very flexible job, which allows me time to come home and take care of my fur babies. I look forward to meeting yours! I have a fenced in yard, live in a great neighborhood for walking with sidewalks, and have my own fur babies to keep yours company!

“First time hiring a sitter, Summit was amazing and truly made my first experience using the Rover app so easy. I would highly recommend him. I believe he went above and beyond by offering a meet and greet. His professionalism and knowledge of animals made the experience even better than I imagined. Jolene absolutely loved being there! Definitely will be booking with him again.”
“Shelly did a GREAT job with my Molly. She sent a few pictures while I was gone and kept me up to date. I only hope she continues to host pets so Molly can continue to be taken care of while I'm gone. Thanks Shelly for all you did.”

“After our meet and greet, where my Lucy was greeted by Erica'sweet little dog, she walked right up to the house.The first day of her stay and made herself right at home. Erica sent me lots of pictures. And I knew Lucy was getting all the snuggles, she needed. I will call erica again”
“We can't thank Maria enough for her kindness and flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request for Pluto's care. From the moment we connected, she was beyond wonderful—thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely caring. She kept us updated throughout the entire reservation with pictures, giving us complete peace of mind. Pluto was clearly happy and well cared for! On top of that, Maria has the most gentle giant of a dog, who made Pluto feel right at home. The experience was seamless, and we truly appreciate her warmth and dedication. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again! Highly recommended!”
“My dog means everything to me, and leaving her is very difficult. I went to see Krista and she seemed to be right person to watch Maggie. I was wrong, she was an outstanding person. Maggie is a dog that needs people and returns that affection with her love. Thanks Krista for taking such great care of her. I will not hesitate to use you in the future. Yours truly Don, Kelley, and of coarse Maggie May.”
“Michelle and Dane did an awesome job watching Barley while we were on a cruise. She sent updates that we would receive when we arrived in port. He enjoyed being able to snuggle with them.”
