“I recently moved to Ocala and needed a new pet sitter. I felt comfortable with them at the Meet and Greet and my first sitting experience with Laquitta & James far exceeded my expectations! I received updates with several pictures EVERY DAY. They pampered Lucy and gave her extra attention since it was her first time staying with them. She was so well cared for and comfortable at their home. They will be my go-to sitters for any future trips!”
“Lorraine was amazing! She has a great energy which put my pups at ease when first meeting, and sent videos and photos daily that put my mind at ease about my fur kids. I’ve already recommended her to someone else, and am planning to schedule with her again in the future!”
“We were very pleased with our booking. They kept us informed, sent photos and were more than happy to address our reservations or concerns about our elderly aged dog who deals with a lot of anxiety in new situations. They took great care of her!”
“Andi took such exceptional care of our Harvey. She treated him as if he were her own puppy and kept me updated on how he was doing. I was a little nervous about leaving him, but that didn’t last long. She let me know how he was eating, getting along with her dog and how much he loved playing with their toddler . This all put me at ease! I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. We will definitely use her again. Thank Andi for taking such good care of our boy🥰”
“Elisa was wonderful! Our black lab, Jake, got to spend 5 days at her house. She is very kind and attentive. I am grateful for her services. 💙 It was a great first experience leaving our pet with someone other than family. Highly recommend!”

“It was an absolute PLEASURE booking with Allen! I was able to visit ahead of time and was shown where my cats would be during their stay, and I truly appreciate that as someone who is a nervous Nelly! The catio was a fun change for my babies and one didn’t even want to come down when we showed up to pick them up! Allen sent me photos to show me how they were doing and kept me updated which I appreciate! It truly was an easy process and I never felt like my babies weren’t cared for! I would happily book again if needed!”
“We are so thankful to have found Gage and Ann. They are attentive from start to finish, always answering our questions and helping to reassure us that our dogs are in great hands. Our pups felt right at home with Gage and Ann, quickly adapting and settling in for their vacation. It can be scary leaving your dogs with strangers, but Gage and Ann were immediately comfortable and kind, and so easy to work with from start to finish. We highly recommend them and will absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again in the future. Thank you so much, Gage and Ann!”

“Kim was amazing. We lost track of time as first time parents and were lucky enough to book her just a few days before the holidays, for a lengthy stretch. She went above and beyond caring for our 2 cats. Always daily pictures with a note. She noticed when our anxious cat started stress licking and was able to use our diffuser to help provide some calming smells for them. She even set our trash out on the last day which was not expected. Could not recommend her more!”
About: I currently take care of two dogs and one cat in my house. I've taken care of my house pets since I was a kid (three dogs, three cats) Out of school for the summer and don't have class unit August. Even if I can't stay over we can still discuss arrangements for me to come over when I'm out of class. Feed them in the morning and late afternoon (or if client had a requested feeding time), take them for a nice walk, and play with the animals to keep them active
“Our kitten Levi stayed with Lorraine for a few days and everything went super well! We always got multiple updates per day and Levi seemed pretty comfortable. We are super grateful!!”

“It was very good to know that Montana was checking in on Jett while we were away! She was even able to get a couple of photos, he’s very shy and elusive. Many thanks for a great job. I’m getting ready to rebook for another trip.”
“We booked last minute. It was our first time using Rover. Salena was great! She came over to visit our cat before we left and make sure everything was good to go. She did everything we asked and seemed to be great with our cat. He even cuddled her, which he never does with strangers. Would definitely book with Salena again if we need help min the future.”
About: What I have been told my entire life is that I have a way of making animals, no matter cats or dogs, calm and relaxed! I grew up around dogs my entire life of all shapes and sizes. from newfoundland's and saint Bernard's, to dachshunds and Australian shepherds and every where in between. In this house we love all fun loving dogs, as well as your adorable felines! I am currently a stay at home single mother, attending school for criminal justice with the goal to enter the forensics world. during the school year I’m a substitute teacher for Marion county, so, during the summer as well as other holiday breaks and weekends I need something to fill those gaps! as I would also be available after school hours! creating my own schedule is crucial during this time, luckily, it involves something that I enjoy as well! and can help others too!! this isn’t a service I’m currently providing in my home as I live in a small space with no fenced in yard unfortunately! in my clients home I will always remain respectful, focused, and attentive to your fur babies! entering someone else’s space is completely sacred and I aim to always be professional and honor your home as if it was my own.

About: I have two orange cats of my own and have been caring for them for the past two years, so I understand how unique and independent cats can be. I’m comfortable with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and making sure they get playtime and affection at their own pace. I also have 2 extra bedrooms incase of needing private space to warm up to eachother. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their cats as well, and I pride myself on being patient, reliable, and tuned in to each cat’s personality. My 2 are certainly so distinct 😅 Your cat will always feel safe, cared for, and loved with me!
About: Since I was 4, I have taken care of my neighbors, aunts, and friends cats any time they went out of town over night.

“Professional and prompt on each visit. Communicated well and with each visit and ensured our dogs were well taken care of. Highly recommended and we look forward to using his services again.”

I could tell Fernanda was happy and well cared for. Thank you so much for everything—I highly recommend María and would definitely trust her again!”
“Laquitta and James have been our "go to" Rover for several trips now. We like to refer to our fur baby as a velcro dog because she sticks so close to us. But it also means there aren't many Rovers she's happy about visiting. Laquitta and James are the exception. Though she's always happy to see us at the end of her stay, she loves hanging with Laquitta and James and their little fur babies.”
About: *Hablo español* I've had pets all my life. They're part of my family. Responsability, love, attention and fun are part of our care. I love spend time with my four-legged friends. I'm currently non working mom. I spend most of my time at home. I have plenty of free time during the day or overnight to care your pet including on weekends. I live in a quiet and pet friendly neighborhood. I have a spacious fence yard and one friendly Standard Goldendoodle who likes to play with other dogs. Your pet will always safe in my house and would sleep in his cage in my living room.

“Kim was great! So caring of my boy and very nice about any delays on my part. Gave lovely updates and pictures that helped ease my mind when leaving my pup with a dog sitter for the first time. Keeper will definitely go back!”
“Cyndi was so amazing with our Eevee. She took extra special care of her and provided us with pictures and video during her stay. She also accommodated us on very short notice. We highly recommend her to anyone and look forward to using her again in the future.”
About: I grew up around dogs and have watched my grandmother’s plenty of times, mostly labs and pit bulls. Feeding on their schedule, letting them out through the day, walks, keeping them company overnight. Whatever their normal routine was, I kept it going. I’ve also spent time around show dogs, basenjis specifically, so I know what it looks like when a dog is kept to a stricter standard of care. I have cats now too, so I’m used to reading animals and catching when something seems off. I’m home all day, which means I notice fast. I’m comfortable with big dogs and high energy dogs. Pits and labs especially, they don’t intimidate me at all. If your dog has anything specific going on we can go through it at the meet and greet. I work from home full time, so I’m around all day. Pet care isn’t something I fit in between other things, it’s just part of my normal day. Message me any time and I’ll get back to you almost instantly. I have a house with a fenced yard, so dogs get real outside time on their own schedule instead of a quick trip before I run out the door. I’m home all day, which means I catch things fast if something seems off. I have cats, so I only take dogs that do okay around them. Gates stay up and I’m careful every time a door opens. If your dog is reactive to cats we can talk about it at the meet and greet and figure out if it’s a good fit.
“Willow had a great time and enjoyed playing in the backyard and other dogs. Diana was easy to find and allowed us to spend the day at Universal without worrying about our dog.”
“As always, Marshall loves being with Manney and Jessica! He loves to play with their big fluffy happy dog, Cash! We have to bring him periodically for his “happy therapy.””

About: I've had the joy of having dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and over the years, I've also gained experience taking care of birds, bunnies, and chickens. As a retired couple, we're home all the time and have a spacious, half-acre fenced yard where your pets will feel safe and comfortable. With our flexible schedule, we're able to offer both boarding and daycare services, and we promise to treat your pets like they're part of our family. Whether it's cuddling with our dogs and cats or caring for other animals, we're always ready to provide the love and attention your pets deserve. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I organize my schedule around the pets I care for to ensure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and rest. Since I only accept a maximum of 3 pets at a time for boarding or daycare, I’m able to give each one the personalized care they deserve. This also helps me create a calm and safe environment, especially for smaller dogs, as it prevents them from feeling overwhelmed or at risk around larger or more energetic pets. Safety, trust, and a welcoming environment are at the core of how we care for pets in our home. Our spacious, half-acre fenced yard ensures your pets have a secure and safe space to play, explore, and relax. We take great pride in creating a calm, loving atmosphere where pets feel at ease. As a retired couple, we're home all the time, which means your pet will never be left alone for long periods.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My experience in pet care is from living on a farm and having pets since I was 6 years old (Dogs, cats, horses, cows, rabbits, geese, chickens, ducks, turtles, fish, peacocks). Being a lifelong animal lover, I appreciate their distinct personalities and understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I want you to feel confident leaving them with me and know that they are safe and comfortable. I have done work for VOCAL (Voices of Change Animal League) and have been involved with the Humane Society. I enjoy being a part of such wonderful organizations that help animals who need a little extra care. One of the best benefits of working from home is being able to structure my day so it meshes with my pet care lifestyle. I schedule walk breaks so your fur baby and I can get out for a breath of fresh air throughout the workday. I have a secure vinyl fenced back yard and screened in lanai. Our home has security doors and windows and the entire property is monitored by security cameras. I have 4 adult inside rescue cats that are more like my children. If by chance your fur baby doesn't get along with other pets, my cats have their own space away from visitors. I have a dedicated room if your pet needs private space or time to adjust.

I work as a sales representative, which allows me to move around my territory and return home as needed to check on dogs, provide walks, or give them attention.

About: I have dog sat for two family friends on six separate occasions, helping with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and keeping their dogs company while they were away. I always try to follow the owner’s instructions carefully because I know every dog has its own routine, personality, and needs. I am patient, responsible, and gentle with pets, and I enjoy making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are gone. I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for and spend quality time with your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and on weekdays after 12 PM. My schedule gives me enough flexibility to do check-ins, feedings, playtime, walks, and make sure your cats or dogs feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. In my home, pets will be cared for in a safe, calm, and loving environment. I have a fenced yard, which is great for supervised outdoor time and play. I always make sure pets have fresh water, food according to their routine, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I also follow each owner’s instructions carefully because every pet has different needs, habits, and comfort levels. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure their pet’s normal routine is kept as consistent as possible.
About: Hi! I’m Christy, and I absolutely love caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away for peace of mind. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. My goal is to make your pet’s time with me as fun, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d love to help care for your pup! I only have school Monday 11-3 and Wednesday 11-3 I’m free whenever you need me. Give me a quick call and I’ll be on my way! I have harness and leashes for small and medium dogs. I have a medium size kennel. If you need me to bring any of the dogs items, I have a big car to pick them up. I also have a nice neighbor hood that I can walk the dog. I can only care for 1-3 dogs at a time though.

I speak all species of cat and dog, but I’m not fluent in bird. 🤭😉
“Great with Zulu! Nadia has been absolutely wonderful walking our standard poodle, Zulu. She keeps a great pace and covers a solid distance on every walk—which is exactly what Zulu needs to stay healthy and happy. You can tell she truly enjoys being with dogs, and Zulu always comes back from their outings relaxed and content. Nadia is punctual, professional, and communicative. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who treats your dog like their own and actually gets them moving!”
“My dog is fearful of any new people and Lorraine was so patient with him! She knew just what to do and is truly a dog lover. It is such a relief to know we have someone willing to work at our pups pace and comfort level.”
About: I have always had pets of my own, done pet sitting and walked dogs since I was young. I've enjoyed spending time with various pets and animals. I have volunteered on horse farms, Vocal animal shelter and have held jobs at animal hospitals. I have a ton of various experience with pets from all walks of life; no pet is too big of a task for me! Aside from caring for pets, I own my own cleaning business here locally in Ocala. I make my own schedule and am open and ready to accommodate yours. I'd love to provide excellent and loving care to all your fur babies! I prefer to care for pets in your home, where your pets are comfortable, but I am open to my home under the right circumstances!

“Lorraine was amazing! She has a great energy which put my pups at ease when first meeting, and sent videos and photos daily that put my mind at ease about my fur kids. I’ve already recommended her to someone else, and am planning to schedule with her again in the future!”
“Andi took such exceptional care of our Harvey. She treated him as if he were her own puppy and kept me updated on how he was doing. I was a little nervous about leaving him, but that didn’t last long. She let me know how he was eating, getting along with her dog and how much he loved playing with their toddler . This all put me at ease! I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. We will definitely use her again. Thank Andi for taking such good care of our boy🥰”
“It was an absolute PLEASURE booking with Allen! I was able to visit ahead of time and was shown where my cats would be during their stay, and I truly appreciate that as someone who is a nervous Nelly! The catio was a fun change for my babies and one didn’t even want to come down when we showed up to pick them up! Allen sent me photos to show me how they were doing and kept me updated which I appreciate! It truly was an easy process and I never felt like my babies weren’t cared for! I would happily book again if needed!”
“We are so thankful to have found Gage and Ann. They are attentive from start to finish, always answering our questions and helping to reassure us that our dogs are in great hands. Our pups felt right at home with Gage and Ann, quickly adapting and settling in for their vacation. It can be scary leaving your dogs with strangers, but Gage and Ann were immediately comfortable and kind, and so easy to work with from start to finish. We highly recommend them and will absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again in the future. Thank you so much, Gage and Ann!”

We will definitely use her services again and we’ve already told our friends about her. You will be so happy to see all the love that she pours on to your dog. We took Nala on Wednesday night and picked her up Sunday. We texted Kathy minutes before we picked up Nala, and she was gracious and brought Nala to the car.🥰”
“Heidi was absolutely awesome taking care of Luigi and Penny. From the start, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and attentive hands. She treated them like her own, kept me updated, and clearly understood their different personalities and needs. I came back to two happy, relaxed pups which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book Heidi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely great with dogs.”

“Bill and Krista were great! Best rover experience yet. Great communication, lots of photos and plenty of dogs for them to play with. Better than kenneling with day care. Would recommend them and use them in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years. I speak fluent Spanish! I’ve raised my dog Zoso since I was 14 when she was a puppy, she recently passed away at 17 years old so having other dogs around makes me so happy. I also have two cats who are young, orange, and friendly, and I own horses, so I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am an expert on giving medication too from having a senior dog for many years! What sets me apart is my reliability, genuine love for animals, and the peace of mind I give owners knowing their pets are safe, comfy and happy. I spend most of the time at home working remotely so they will get all my attention! I currently work part-time from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets during the week and weekends. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and boarding. I love spending time playing with animals, giving them attention, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where pets are treated like my own. I have a private yard linked to trails that I walk daily, and I’d love to bring your dog along for exercise and fresh air. Most importantly, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to make sure every pet feels secure, comfortable with routine, and well cared for!
About: I've had dogs my whole life, worked as a bather at a grooming solon & worked at 2 different dog boarding kennels. I've also pet sat before for neighbors & friends. I'm also very comfterable around dogs & cats. I'm a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to give your pet lots of love, care & cuddles that they deserve! I have 1 dog that NEVER interacts with pets that stay in my home. When the guest pet is to be let out/ played with my dog is crested behind a closed door & vise versa. The safety of all pets is my top priority!
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I was raised with pets and have hands-on experience caring for dogs ranging from Boxers and German Shepherds to Terrier mixes. I understand that every pet has unique needs, energy levels, and routines, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have also completed a Leash Reactive Dog Course Certification, which has given me valuable training in understanding and safely handling dogs that may be reactive, anxious, or overstimulated on walks. This helps me provide calm, confident care while prioritizing your dog's safety and comfort. In addition, I have experience caring for cats of many breeds, including Siamese, Himalayan, Maine Coon, and both long-haired and short-haired domestic cats. I've cared for cats from playful kittens to senior companions, giving me experience with age specific needs and senior care. Whether your pet is young, energetic, shy, reactive, or in their golden years, I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own family. I currently work from home while my husband grows our family inspection business, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and lots of belly rubs. Animals have always been a big part of my life. Recently, I lost my beloved cat after 17 wonderful years. While we're not quite ready to welcome another permanent pet into our family, the universe seemed to have other plans. A wounded stray cat found her way into our driveway and into our hearts. We took her in, got her the care she needed, and are now helping her heal and thrive. Caring for animals brings me so much joy, and I'd love the opportunity to provide the same love, attention, and dependable care to your pets while you're away. I provide a calm, low-stress home environment where pets receive plenty of individualized attention. Because I work from home, I'm able to give pets lots of supervision, companionship, and engagement throughout the day. Whether your pet prefers relaxing in a quiet setting or needs extra playtime and exercise, I tailor my care to their unique personality and routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.
