She set up a meet and greet to make sure our dog was compatible with others and to see her space- it's a cute setup complete with a shallow pool that is perfect for hot days. I got updates through the day and Tazzie came home exhausted- we will definitely be requesting future visits for daycare and boarding.”

About: I have over 40 years’ experience caring for pets. I've often watched friends and family dogs. As I am now fully retired and recently lost my most precious Dachshund, Nathan(hotdogs) after 16+ years, I’m hoping to help anyone who may need pet care watching their family dogs. I really enjoy watching, walking and playing with pets. See you soon! I'm fully retired and spend most of my time at home. I have plenty of free time and I’ve always enjoyed getting out for a dog walk in the early morning and late afternoon. I'm committed to loving care and safety for my clients' pets. I always enjoy long walks with the energetic fast pace Rovers. I'm always cautious to have them on a proper leash and collar or harness during their walks. I take care not to walk dogs when it's too hot and always keep them off of hot sidewalks and pavement. I also allow plenty of couch and TV time for all dogs especially the less active senior dogs. Tell me your dog's needs and habits and I will do my very best to make them feel right at home.

“I highly recommend Ashlee to care for your love-pups. I reached out to Ashlee for doggie day care assistance for my two cocker spaniels. This was to be the first time for these two pups to be cared for by anyone other than myself and outside of their own home. Ashlee was extremely pleasant and professional. Ashlee put me at ease by answering my questions before I even asked them. Ashlee and her family have a very nice and secure home. I was quite comfortable leaving my love-pups in her hands. I will call upon Ashlee for future doggie day care and slumber parties for my two love-pups. Thank you so much Ashlee!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life and have been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors for 10–15 years to care for their pets in both short- and long-term situations. In my home, I maintain a structured, calm environment with consistent routines for feeding, exercise, and supervision. I currently have two well-trained, fully vaccinated dogs (a Goldendoodle and a Bernedoodle) who are very social and used to interacting with other dogs. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, understanding behavior, and ensuring a safe, low-stress environment. As a military veteran, I approach pet care professionally—with clear expectations, strong communication, and a focus on safety for all animals in my home. I maintain a flexible schedule and am home frequently throughout the day, which allows for consistent supervision and care. I structure my day around the dogs in my home and can accommodate established feeding, walking, and rest routines as long as they are clearly outlined in advance. My goal is to keep your dog on a schedule they are already comfortable with, while maintaining a calm, structured environment. I limit the number of dogs I take at one time to ensure each dog receives proper attention and consistency.

I follow each owner’s instructions closely and will make every effort to maintain your dog’s normal feeding, walking, and daily routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. For safety, I only accept dogs that are friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable around other dogs. Dogs are supervised, and crating can be accommodated if your dog is crate-trained. I prioritize clear communication so you always know how your dog is doing.

I am comfortable following training plans and reinforcing positive behaviors to ensure consistency while your dog is in my care. I am also a proud rescue dog owner. My Husky mix has been my sidekick for the past two years, and caring for her has strengthened my understanding of consistency, positive reinforcement, and building trust. No task is too big or too small when it comes to your pet’s well-being. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, medication administration, or simply companionship, I approach every visit with responsibility, attentiveness, and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and ensure you feel confident and at ease while they are in my care. I work part-time, which allows me a very flexible schedule. I’m available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and can also accommodate consistent or last-minute bookings. I will follow any directions you provide exactly as provided. I know some dogs can be known to escape when owners are gone and your pet will be kept under watchful eye the whole time. There will be plenty of love given to your furry loved one.

About: Hello! I'm Nicole, and I'm 29 years old and living in my sunny hometown of Cape Coral with my 3 small fluffy dogs. I recently completed my masters degree at NYU with a thesis focusing on dog socialization. I've had pets since the day I was born - cats, dogs, fish, chickens, horses - you name it. I started before double digits caring for the neighbors pets when their owners were away on trips and still do to this day. I love all creatures that the world has given us, whether a lost neighborhood stray or the turtle on the side of the road (Yes, I am that person to stop and help it to the other side). Now taking my in-person pet sitting service digitally, I have learned to love and take care of pets in all aspects — from keeping them healthy and being by their side when sick or recovering. Everything from giving lots of love, keeping them well fed, being taken care of, and lots of playtime, walks, and especially cuddles — which are my specialty. My senior mini aussie has had double ACL repair surgery, and he was the bestest boy to learn how to care for a pet medically. I hope your pet can be a part of the love fest, too! I'm currently taking care of my parents' estate so I'm home 24/7. All my time is yours! Morning walks, evening walks, medicine schedules, drop-in visits, or socialization - anything your baby needs I can provide. At home, we have a fenced yard with doggy doors with full access to the outdoors. I always supervise their outdoor time since we have a pool. I can crate your dog any time if needed, or let them sleep in bed with me at night if they love that, too.

“Carla is awesome with Sky and keeps us updated on how things are going!! Sky was in great hands to help her through her anxiety of fireworks and thunderstorms while my husband and I were out of town giving us peace of mind. Thank you Carla, we appreciate you!”

“I had a last minute call out for work and Thomas and Lyndsay were very kind and were able to watch my Evy for a week without hesitation. They would send me pictures throughout her stay and Evy was very well taken care of. I am very grateful and will reach out to them again in the future.”

“Honestly this was the best experience we have ever had with a rover sitter. Alain and his wife are so kind, they live in a beautiful and very clean house with a nice fenced in yard. They sent multiple videos daily showing Tater Tot being loved on. I think Alain played more ball with Tater daily than Tater is used to. Would 100% use them again in a heart beat.”

She created the perfect home environment for her to feel comfortable. Erika kept us in the loop with regular updates and photos of our puppy. We’re definitely going to use her services again! We encourage everyone to hire her as a pet sitter, she is wonderful.”

“I'm so glad we found Krista to care for our dog while we were out of town, she took great care of him! My dog usually takes some time to trust people but he warmed up to Krista right away, it was obvious to me too how much she loves and knows about dogs. Her communication was wonderful and she provided me with an update and photos each day, which I really appreciated. She has a very lovely and clean home with a nice fenced yard. I highly recommend Krista to take care of your”

“Destony was absolutely amazing! From the moment we met her, she was kind, professional, and clearly cared about our dogs as if they were her own. Throughout their stay, she kept us at ease and made sure they were well cared for, comfortable, and happy. What stood out most was how attentive and loving she was with them. Hearing that they were sweet, well-behaved, and that she wouldn’t mind watching them again truly speaks to the positive environment she created for them. She also went the extra mile by keeping us informed and reminding us about their evening feeding. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would not hesitate to book with Destony again in the future. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, Destony is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!”

“Destini kept me informed every day about my precious baby. She was very responsive and flexible about drop off and pick up times. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my senior dog! <3”

“Marta did a wonderful job taking care of Brandy. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure Brandy was happy and comfortable. I appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Brandy was well cared for and seemed relaxed and content when I returned. I would happily book with Marta again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. If Brandy could leave her own review, I’m convinced it would be a glowing 5-star rating with a few extra tail wags thrown in.”
