“Angelina is incredible - we will certainly be using her for our future vacations! She was flexible and sent frequent updates and pictures of my happy dog. She truly treated my dog like he was one of her own. My dog didn’t even want to leave! She was careful introducing her dogs to mine during the meet and greet and then again at the beginning of the stay. They all left as best friends! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone, and I felt like I had definitely made the right decision. We would highly recommend.”

About: Cats have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with and lived alongside multiple cats of different breeds, ages, and personalities — from playful and social to shy and independent. I understand that every cat has their own comfort level, boundaries, and routine. For over 4 years, I’ve provided dependable pet sitting, including dedicated cat care. I’m very comfortable with: • Feeding routines and special diets • Litter box cleaning and maintenance • Administering basic medications (if applicable) • Playtime and enrichment • Respecting space for more reserved or anxious cats • Multi-cat households I know that cats thrive on consistency, and I take pride in maintaining their normal routine to keep them stress-free while you’re away. Whether your cat loves interactive play or just wants a calm, reassuring presence, I’m happy to adjust to their personality. As someone who truly loves and understands cats, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home — and to give you peace of mind with regular updates and photos.

About: I’ve taken care of friends & family cats since I was a teenager. I’ve had 2 cats in my life time and then found out I was allergic to cats so I no longer had them in my home . But I’ve still taken care of family and friends cats (I just take allergy medicine)
“So happy to have found Lauren! She instantly bonded with my two cats during the meet and greet, and I could tell she truly loves animals.

About: Hey I’m Camila! One that set apart from other siters is that I grew up on farm rising other animals so taking care of animals have been part of my life as long as I can remember. Being around different types of animals made me comfortable with all types of pet personalities and temperatures. After moving to Florida I started volunteering at the humane society where I got in depth training on cats and dogs behavior and how to properly handle and care for them.

Thank you 😊 I'm working from home so I have the time and capability to give plenty of attention to my furry guests. I have a pet friendly apartment complex with plenty of space for walks.

“Samantha was amazing, she took great care of our cat while we were gone. She arrived on time, was very responsible, and our cat was happy and healthy when we got home.

We will definitely use her again the next time go out of town.”

“Billie has my vote. She took my 2 dogs at 5:45 am and provided a safe enjoyable daycare experience for Tova and Sadie. Their tails were wagging in all the pictures and videos. Thanks Billie !!”

About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since childhood. Growing up, my family always had at least one cat and one dog in the home and my siblings and I were responsible for caring for these animals. I have always had some sort of pet since then. Currently, I am mother to my pride and joy: an 11-year-old Yorkie. He is an older dog now and sleeps a majority of the day. I am looking for other pets to keep me occupied as I work from home. I will be considering them my new coworkers. 😊 I currently run my business from my apartment. I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself. I have plenty of time to care for dogs and board in my home. I am open to different situations in the home. I live in an apartment building with many dog owners. The apartment is attached to a dog park and there are many larger dog parks in the area.
“Kayli and Huck are awesome! Kayli has a nice big fenced in area for the dogs to run in. My dog Cuddles always has a blast with Huck and is nice and tired when I take him home!”
About: Welcome to Golden Paradise — a safe, loving home-away-from-home for your pup in Stuart. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Since I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I have hands-on experience training and caring for dogs, including successfully training my own golden retriever with advanced obedience skills. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with energetic dogs as well as calm companions. Your dog will enjoy playtime, walks, and a spacious yard for supervised outdoor time. We also have a pool area for relaxing and outdoor fun, with dogs always closely supervised for safety. Whether your pup loves fetch, cuddles, or relaxing inside, I tailor care to what makes them happiest. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout their stay, so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and having fun at Golden Paradise. I work from home, so your pets will me home with them throughout the day. With a fenced-in backyard and a pool, your pet can run and play, and they’ll have my 2 year-old golden retriever as a playful companion! I have a fenced-in backyard with a pool where your dog can play and swim. If you prefer crating, I can accommodate that as well. My dog and I typically go for a walk in the morning, enjoy playtime in the yard during the day, and take a long walk after work. On weekends, we love taking him to the beach to run and play fetch – and your dog would enjoy the same routine!

About: Hello, I am Chris, and I am the loving dog mama to three sweet fur babies of my own who love other doggies to play with. I primarily work from a home office so I can provide care with a high level of supervision. Looking to establish a long-term relationship with your pup to ease the sadness when you take a trip, and treat him/her like a member of my own family. Boarding in my home with fenced yard, friendly/patient dogs, and lots of snuggles. *** Please note: NO new boarding/daycare requests will be approved without BOTH speaking to me on the phone first AND arranging a meet-and-greet with your dog(s). This for the safety of myself and my pets, as well as yours. *** I mostly work from home so it's perfect for being able to spend as much time as possible with the dogs. Much outside play time is offered (weather/heat permitting) with ample cool water, a fan, hose play time, and shade. Just giving plenty of love, attention, comfort, and maintaining your pup's feeding/medication/other schedules. They are not left unattended outside. If I have to leave them at home for a couple hours, they may be crated, depending on your pup's level of comfort with my environment.
“Amanda was absolutely wonderful! My dogs love her, she treats them like her own. I will definitely be using Amanda again, my dogs are very happy with her as am I. They were walked, went to the dog park, and she stuck to their feeding schedule. She treated them like her own, and that’s all I could ask for. I highly recommend Amanda!”

“I can’t begin to explain just how much of a blessing from above finding you guys was. Tilly comes home with such a huge smile, and beyond happy. You guys are like a second home and family to her. We couldn’t have asked for a better fit. Thank you so much for all your love and kindness when she’s with you. I hope anyone reading this understands I’m very picky and very protective when it comes to who watches her and you’ve surpassed all my expectations. Thank you again, Tilly is looking forward to next week! 🥰”

THRILLED to have found this wonderful service.... Gives us peace of mind to know our Pup is safe and happy while we enjoy our time away!!!!? ”


“My furbabies had a great time! So wore out when we picked them up! I was traveling from out of state and Angelina gave me peace of mind about being away from them for the day. Videos and pics were very reassuring! Thanks again!”

“I would definitely recommend Annie. I was nervous to leave my puppy with a sitter for the first time, but after this experience my anxiety surrounding leaving him decreased. My puppy was happy upon my arrival, I appreciated Annie’s updates, and she respected my wishes. As a bonus, she was super patient with my pup who’s had a ton of medical problems and therefore is not properly trained (yet). We can’t wait to see her again!”

“Heidi was amazing! She was able to watch my dog Ozzy last minute! I was even able to arrange a pick up and drop off with her. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day and went beyond dog sitting, she played ball with him, got all his energy out and even had a training session with him!”

“Needed a last minute sitter from out of town and Ana came through big time. Very caring and we felt very comfortable leaving Bella for the day. Next time we're in the area Ana is a must book.”

I care for any animals as if they were my own by making sure there happy, comfortable and loved. I followed all instructions to a T because I understand the importance of why the instructions are there in the first place and how important routines are to pets!

“Macy is the absolute best!! From the very first time I contacted her, she responded immediately and arranged a meet and greet. This young lady has such a calming demeanor, patience and genuine love for animals. Our dog Marley is 1 year old and was a little shy at first. This was no challenge for Macy, she had such a calm approach with Marley who soon warmed up to her. I wouldn't trust my dog at this point with nobody else. I am so happy we chose Macy because with there being so many dog walkers to choose from, you just never know! I highly recommend her because she is such a joy. Very prompt for Marley's walks, communication, and just a genuine nice person who goes above and beyond to give you superior service!! Keep up the good work Macy and for taking care of our Marley!! It doesn't get any better than you🙂”

“Billie is absolutely amazing! It was so comforting knowing that Billie would be there for them when I was unable to. Billie always sent photos and videos of her visits and ALL of my babies looked happy and loved! Billie definitely goes the extra mile, not only for my babies but to bring peace of mind to myself!! I will definitely call on her any time I need assistance!!”

About: I’ve always loved animals since I was young, watching all the pets in my neighborhood starting at 10 years old. I have over 100 volunteer hours at vet rescue clinic. I have 1 senior dog that I understand the care that comes along with that and the need of wanting to leave them in good hands when you aren’t home. I also have another younger high energy dog that comes with the need of many walks, paddleboard rides, and playtime to get all their energy out. Big dogs are not a problem as also I grew up with a mastiff. I am currently a university student, so I have plenty of free time when I am not in class. Most of my free time is in the afternoon or weekends. Just message me what works best for you and I am sure I will have time to accommodate that. When caring for your animals at your home I will treat them as they are my own pets. I want to be sure to match their routine so they will be comfortable at all times. Fresh water will always be available, along with tons of love and affection. I will be sure to keep you update as well with photos and text messages so you know your dog is happy while you are not there. My goal is to provide not just basic care, but exceptional care making sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved until you return home.

About: I have a passion for animals that is evident in the way that I love and care for all as they are my own. I have had experience with all kinds of animals and I am dedicated to providing the best care possible. I have personally owned a golden retriever puppy and a senior golden so I have experience with all temperments and sizes. My schedule is very easily adaptable and I am able to work with clients to adjust my availability according to their schedule and their pets needs. I am able to stay with pets as much as needed and provide enrichment and basic needs whenever necessary. Pets will be cared for according to their specific needs and owners requests.
About: I have over 14 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, along with 8 years of dedicated pet sitting. I currently work at a dog park and dog daycare, where I supervise group play, handle different temperaments, and ensure a safe, structured environment. I’ve cared for everything from extra large breeds to small dogs, including puppies and seniors. I also have experience with rehomed dogs and understand they may need extra patience and consistency. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic training, and maintaining routines to keep dogs happy and well-balanced. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I currently work part-time at a dog park and dog daycare, where I spend my time caring for and supervising dogs of all sizes and energy levels. This has made me very comfortable with structured schedules, feeding times, walks, and consistent care. Because I work part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet sitting, including drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays when needed. I’m able to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and routine they’re used to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m very attentive to behavior and surroundings, making sure pets are always secure on walks, properly supervised, and never put in unsafe situations. With my experience working at a dog park and dog daycare, I’m confident in reading body language and handling different temperaments calmly and safely. I treat every home with respect—keeping things clean, organized, and just as you left them. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Katie was punctual and professional in walking our Maxie Pie and we are grateful to her for our not having to worry about Max’s potty breaks. Many thanks Katie. We’ll call on you again.”


About: I believe they will see that I will care for their dogs as I do my own. My boy "Jax" in the picture, he took his last run on 12-17-2023. Miss him dearly. RIP My angel! I grew up with Poms and went on to the large breeds once I was on my own. Germans shepherds, Newfoundland, English Mastiffs, Afghan Hound and a Great Dane. I am a dog and animal lover PERIOD. I really should have been a vet, vet tech or maybe even a zoologist! But I'm happy just to spend time with the dogs. I have house broken and trained all my dogs personally to basic commands and even some tricks. Some dogs are verbal and some are visual. Not all dogs are the same! That's why I LOVE them SO much!! ~ Reba I own a small Swimming Pool Service Company and have for 20 years. I no longer work in the field I occasionally go troubleshooting jobs or meet with new clients. So I'm semi-retired and home quite a bit I don't really go much of anywhere. I have a fenced-in yard, bordered by bamboo and lots of sniffing/hunting areas. However, they are never left unattended. I'm always outside with them. There is also a pool for the swimmers and a grassy area for just for playing.
About: Walking, playing, nails trims, administering medications and follow dietary needs. I can do all that while giving your babies love and attention. Anything else, feel free to ask or bring it to my attention. I work part-time hours, so I have time to come tend to your furry friends before work and right after. Willing to do overnights as well. In the clients home I follow any specific rules, be it putting pets in a crate over night or putting them in their own beds. I can separate pets during feedings, administer medications, and more.
About: There’s nothing a little of my love and patience can’t handle. Everyone’s pets are different and have different needs. Maybe you have an escape artist, your pups love to talk, or perhaps you are still potty training. If your pet has special needs, I’m here for you! If you are a new pet owner, I’m here for you! I have experience with luxury property management, farm sitting, pet sitting, and green cleaning. I always send pictures so you can see how your buddies are getting along and receive timely updates on how our day/night is going. I consider your pets, property, and neighborly relations my first priority. I love animals more than I can say. I’ve been dog sitting for 13 years, but just set up my profile on Rover. I have my own dog, Booker, and I watch your pets to fund his pricey allergy medication! I love talking with pawrents about their experiences, funny stories, and products they love! I get along with all animal lovers. One thing always remains the same when I’m with your pets, lots of love and tender care. Needless to say, there is nothing more rewarding than gaining the trust and affection of a pet in such a short amount of time. I‘m happy to accommodate you this season. I have a very flexible remote work schedule. I’m here for your timing and needs, but prefer not to be in traffic at rush hour. I can care for pets in your home and I am not at all concerned about how clean your house is. I am just there to watch your pets!

“Angelina is incredible - we will certainly be using her for our future vacations! She was flexible and sent frequent updates and pictures of my happy dog. She truly treated my dog like he was one of her own. My dog didn’t even want to leave! She was careful introducing her dogs to mine during the meet and greet and then again at the beginning of the stay. They all left as best friends! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone, and I felt like I had definitely made the right decision. We would highly recommend.”
“Amazing experience! Billie and her husband took such great care of our Standard Poodle who is sensitive and doesn't like to be away from us. Thank you very much for providing such wonderful care for our Teddy and keeping him occupied! And a special thanks to their Poodle Veronica who kept our Teddy company!”
