“We had a great experience with Diane. Nice, great communication and my dog loved her. She even worked with us when we had to drop off Precious earlier than expected. Will definitely want to work with her again.”
“Ashley did such an amazing job taking care of my boy! When we met up, she was willing to spend over an hour talking with me and getting to really know my pup and his needs. She and her family are very experienced with high-drive, high-energy, intelligent dogs and my pup had an AMAZING time. She also checked in every morning and sent pictures and videos. I will absolutely take my pup to her next time I need boarding!”
“Our dogs came home healthy and happy! Annie was very responsive and sent us pictures and video of our dogs while we were away! I will definitely ask Annie to watch our dogs again!”
“Fantastic! Murphy does not usually do well with dogs bigger than him, or too many dogs at once, however, his stay with Sylvia may have changed that, not sure what she did but my boy was very happy hanging out with the other dogs and made his stay a pleasant experience for us all. Highly recommend Sylvia if you need a sitter for your fur baby.”
“Elijah is super pleasant and communicated with us throughout our dog’s stay with him. He was very patient and accommodating. We will definitely book with him again.”
“Haylie was sweet and even offered to pick up our pooch early as she had a schedule conflict with our initial drop-off time. We got pics everyday and Daisy seemed comfy, happy and well cared for! Thanks Haylie!”
“Joseph and Reanaleena did a great job keeping Fiona. They kept me up to date on what was happening with Fiona. My emails were answered quickly. They took extra special care when Fiona was a little tired. I would definitely use them in the future.”
“Yoshi had a great time with Alexander and Josephine. They kept him safe because my dog was so anxious the 1st night . They even took him to the dog park which is above and beyond. Alex and Jo were always updating me and always takes videos and pictures of Yoshi; their fur babies don’t mind Yoshi at all; Yoshi was so needy and clingy and they him all the love and attention; thank you for the love and care”
“I am very picky about who takes care of my boy's and I have to say that I was so pleased with Dana. She treated them like they were hers and kept me in the loop with all the awesome pics. I highly recommend her as a top dog sitter you will not be disappointed. Dana thank you so much for your live of dogs we will be back soon..thanks again Mike, Liz Bruiser and Buster”
“This is ny first time leaving Teddy with Nina. I was a little scared at the beginning because I will be gone for a week but Nina is very compassionate with dogs. She knows how to handle Teddy. She is very flexible with her schedule. Our flight got delayed and she is so nice to take care of Teddy and reassured us that Teddy is well taking care of.”
“Adam was a great communicator and was great with our dog! He was able to accommodate a last-minute request for an earlier drop-off and sent regular updates about how things were going. Would definitely recommend him and leave Mochi with him again!!”
“Sarah was kind, communicative, and thoughtful. She sent pictures and made us feel very comfortable during Teddy’s first stay with her. They even baked homemade dog treats!! Will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”
“Anas and Tate were amazing with our doodle puppy, Toni, during our trip to Gainesville for UF graduation. After a last-minute cancellation from our original sitter, we were stressed—but meeting Anas put us completely at ease. He was kind, professional, and kept us updated with photos and videos. Toni clearly had a great time! We’re so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter.”
“I left my two frenchies with Tish for the first time for 3 nights. I could not have been more pleased with the way she took care of them. She sent lots of photos and made sure they were comfortable with their surroundings. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is as picky as I am with who my babies stay with. I will definitely book with her again”
“This is our first experience using Rover and Taw made it an amazing one for us and Dax! She opened up her home for us very last minute and kept in contact the whole time we were gone. Dax is a nervous dog but warmed right up to her and his new friends and judging by the pictures sent, he was on vacation too! We will definitely use Taw again and recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”
“Vanessa is thoughtful, super sweet and knowledgeable with dogs. He takes care of Bobby like he was her own. I trust her every time we travel to care for him, without worrying about if he’s going to get taken care of correctly. Highly recommend 10/10”
“Highly recommend Brittni! She was very professional, kept me updated everyday with pictures, messages, etc. She had my dog for 6 days!! I plan to book with her again in the future.”
“I am so grateful to Paula and family for taking such good care of my baby. I had a last minute trip and she was so accommodating .She was sitting and enjoying petting when I walked in. I highly recommend Paula.”

About: I have decades of experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to senior cats with special needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring health and behavior, and providing plenty of affection while respecting each cat's unique temperament. I also understand the importance of a clean environment and am meticulous about litter box maintenance, food and water hygiene, and keeping cats safe and comfortable in their own homes. My goal is to reduce stress for both cats and their owners by providing dependable, compassionate care and regular updates while you're away.
“Cheryl was great with my chocolate lab. She was very communicative with anything that came up. And even stayed little longer when she noticed Bailey was very anxious and seemed unwell. Thanks Cheryl for taking care of Bailey. Bailey had a great time with her too!”
About: I care for many feline friends in the workplace, giving me the medical experience to safely administer oral, topical, and injectable medications even if a feline feels a bit spicy. I own two cats; a three-year-old orange tabby and a 1-year-old calico. Both of my cats have been a bundle of joy and I have enjoyed pampering my cats for the past year and a half. I go above and beyond to ensure they are always comfortable and satisfied in their home.
About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I spent 6 years at PetSmart caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and small animals, 2 years working at k9’s for warriors. Working with service animals, administering meds, caring for sick/disabled dogs. I’ve also volunteered with local shelters and at Grace Haven Homestead, where I cared for animals ranging from farm dogs and donkeys to foxes. I’ve been around all kinds of animals and personalities, and I love getting to know each one. My goal is simple: to give your pets a safe, cozy place where they feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you’re away. I’m a stay-at-home mom who homeschools my two boys, so we spend most of our days at home. Pet care fits naturally into our routine because I’m already here throughout the day. I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and company while we go about our normal day. Including any special needs they may need. My kids also love animals, and have been around many to know how to respect them. So having pets around feels like a fun addition to our home rather than a job I’m trying to fit in. I will be the sole caretaker of your animal(s) when here. Caring for pets in my home will depend on if your furry friend is good with kids under 5. My boys are very respectful of dogs and will not bother them. But there will be running, yelling, jumping, playing. Know if your dog is good around kids. We have an acre fenced in yard, plenty of space to run contained. Lots of tree coverage on hot days. Cozy beanbag bed for dogs. We’ll make them feel like family! We have a valley bulldog, cat, and bearded dragon! We love all animals. We look forward to meet yours. Smoke free home. I will be the sole caretaker when your animal(s) are here, the kids will just add love comfort, and fun if they want it!
About: i have grown up my entire 24 years with multiple animals and multiple different types of animals! i have been using the wag app for two years now and have had a blast and am looking to get even more walks! honestly any day of the week works for me! preferably not super late at night past seven or eight o’clock but i am free most of the week! i am super careful and pay very close attention to your pet and treat them like royalty! i also stick perfectly to exactly what you ask for me to do!
“Kaitlyn was great! She came over and met my dogs before the booking, which I appreciated. I got lots of pics of my crazy puppers while she watched them. I can tell they had a good time. I’ve already booked with her again. ? Thanks Kaitlyn!”
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I bring a calm, confident, and loving approach to every pet I meet.

I truly love all animals, and I talk to every dog, cat, or critter as if they were my own. Your pets will be in patient, capable, and genuinely caring hands with me. I can work from anywhere and I set my own hours so I'm available for any schedule that you and your pets need, even if it's just a visit. In your home, I care for your pets just like my own. Our cat sleeps with us, Tank is on the floor on my side is the bed. I talk to them like they're my best friends. 😊
About: I own 4 cats, so caring for cats is part of my everyday life! I’m experienced with different personalities, from playful and affectionate to shy and independent. I understand how important it is to keep cats comfortable by following their routine, keeping litter boxes clean, providing fresh food and water, and giving them the attention they prefer, whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or their own space. I’ll also send photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: An avid animal lover! I grew up with dogs. They loved me just as much as I loved them. My grandparents always had dogs since the time I was born. Their favorite one: German Rottweiler. They are beautiful dogs and so protective. I always helped my grandparents all the time with the dogs. We would have 6 or more dogs in the household all at once, so I have experience with having multiple dogs at once. Additionally, I can teach them tricks such as giving paw, sitting, laying, etc. I have experience from puppies to senior dogs as I know they required different type of care. I'll treat them like they are my own. I currently work full time during the weekdays, but I'm available after 6pm on the weekdays and all day availability on the weekends. I'll be able to provide the care they require. I don't have any dogs at home. However, I do have kids, so I understand the safety and how important it is to have a safe environment. However, currently not offering services to have dogs at my home at this time.
About: I grew up with kitty cats roaming the household since I was a child and have watched cats for my friends and family growing up. My sister rescued one of our family cats, Luna, from a dumpster behind a dollar general. My mom rescued Mousey from Facebook and I rescued Suki from the Walmart parking lot. I would love to check in on your kitties and care for them! We do not discriminate around here!🗣️ Young, old, disabled, I love them all! You won’t have to worry if they are taken well care of while you’re away!💗
About: I've taken care of pets for over 50 years and have had the pleasure of raising 5 Golden Retrievers. My oldest girl, Savannah lived an amazing life for 16 years. I've also raised 2 pekingese. I'm the one my friends call when they need a sitter. That will be decided during our original meeting depending on what you feel is best for your animals. I'm open to what you feel is best. I will take care of and love on your fur babies while you are gone. I will also be more than glad to send you photos.

About: I have owned cats and dogs all of my life and can't imagine my home without them. Animals give us unconditional love, and they deserve the same in return. I have given IV treatments to ailing cats with kidney damage and experience with dispersing meds/pills by mouth. I will treat all your loved ones with the same care that I provide my own. I am retired; I work independently from home and have a lot of free time. I am looking for some fur babies to take care of so their guardians can feel comfortable leaving them. I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. I am happy to feed, water and clean pet areas as part of my home visits. I will scoop litter boxes as well. I take their health seriously and fresh water/food is a very important part of staying healthy. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.
“Bringing Josie to stay at Ana's is one of the best things for her! Ana has a massive, fenced in yard where she frequently brings the dogs outside to play fetch and run around. I am a Nurse Practitioner and work in a hospital with variable hours. Ana is always flexible about me dropping her off early in the morning as well as not knowing exactly what time I am going to be there to pick her up. Ana is great about keeping in touch with me throughout the day and always sends lots of pictures and videos throughout the day. Josie LOVES Ana. She is an anxious dog at baseline from her times prior to our adopting her, but at Ana's Josie is learning to be comfortable in unknown environments and with other animals. Every time I drop her off she is so excited (tail wagging a mile a minute). I am so thankful for Ana and her husband. They are both amazing. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, playful, and flexible environment their dogs!”
About: I am a caring individual who has extensive experience in pet care. I welcome active puppies, older dogs, large dogs and small dogs. I have a Cane Corso and a Chocolate Lab. I have raised and trained over 15 dogs. I live on 2 acres of land which will allow pups plenty of room to stretch their legs and play. There is no such thing as an "outdoor or indoor dog." Most dogs enjoy the outside with humans and should not be left out unattended or overnight as they are part of the family. Please permit me to show your dog the same love and care I show my own pups. I treat my dogs like my children and would treat any visiting pet the same way. My home is his or her home during the stay and he or she will be welcomed into the family. Please pay special note below as owners sometimes have a tendency to pick up late then fail to review my late policy. This is VERY important! ------------------------------------ Pick up and drop off times are acceptable between 8 am and 6 pm. Please request pick up and drop off times that are commensurate. Any time beyond the drop off hour hours agreed upon will incur an additional fee. Please do not contact me on the date of pick up and request a later pick up time then become angry when there is an additional fee as I have explained this clearly in my profile beforehand. Also please DO NOT fail to call then pick up your pet late and not expect a late fee. My schedule is important too. Meet and greets will be scheduled no more than a week in advance of the sitting. Please ensure Rover profiles are complete with pictures and descriptions of behavior before contact. Please be prepared to provide proof of rabies vaccination at meet and greet. Flea and tick treatments are recommended due to the large amount of grass. Please ensure pups are house trained, not just crate trained. Thank You Since I have two pups to love daily, caring for an additional dog or two is no additional work. The visiting pups would be included in the daily routine. I have a fenced yard and I watch the pups closely when they are outside to ensure the temperature is adequate and the dogs are comfortable. I can take them for walks to help release the pent up energy for some younger puppies.
“Bud had a good day. This was his first doggy daycare, and it was a positive experience for Bud and his family. Haylie kept me updated throughout the day; she was kind and seemed to really enjoy taking care of him. It was nice for him to also have time with her golden doodle and child. Thank you Haylie”

About: Serving Pets and their Owners for over 30 Years! I am Pet CPR certified. I provide the home away from home for your furry babies!! It is what I was born doing and have continued to do. Everything from dogs and cats, horses and exotics. From running other pet care facilities to vet hospitals to owning and running my own grooming and dog care business. I am currently at home fulltime to care and provide for your furry babies. I cater to the routine of each dog in my home. Knowing each dog individually helps me provide the best care/environment for their stay. I provide individual time with each dog and/or group play only with dogs that play well with other. I am also Pet CPR certified.
About: I have worked with animals of all ages, breed, and size for over 9 years now. From shelter work, to doggy daycare, grooming, and now training, I’ve done just about it all! I would love to spend time with your fur babies and treat them like my own. I have tons of toys, enrichment activities, and fun training games to keep them busy and maybe even teach them a new trick or two. I have grooming supplies so if you need a bath, brush, or nail trim, I’m your girl! I am currently at home full time so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur kids! I love to stay active so going on walks or trips to the park will be so much fun! I would love to give your pets whatever attention they may need. Whether that means going on walks around the neighborhood, doing mental games and tricks to help tire them out, or snuggling with them on the couch for a bit. I am always going on “field trips” with my training dogs, to the park, stores, or restaurants and it’s very likely your pup will take a trip or 2 with me if they’re staying for a while! Disclaimer: The dogs in my care do sleep in crates (Ruffland kennels provided by me with comfy beds) and will get crate naps during the day as well. We leave the house almost daily to go to the park or on trips to the store/coffee shops and they are crated for safety in my car as well.
About: Hello, I am an animal lover of all kinds. I have always had a dog and cat among other pets in my life, whether by others or my own. In the past I volunteered as a fur baby foster parent and was fur mommy to a beautiful girl "Chula" 🐶 we adopted in 2000 and sadly after 17 years got her wings. My family and I always include our fur babies in everything, at holidays, sometimes it seemed to be more dogs 🐶 of all sizes then people 😊. I want to help you feel at ease and have piece of mind when you are away by providing the utmost respect, fun and care for an important member of the family☺️ I can provide a loving and warm inviroment with 3 arces fully fenced yard. I have cared for chickens, pot belly pigs, birds am always ready to try more 😁 My schedule allows for plenty of time for cuddles, furbaby love, feeding, walks, outside time, potty time and entertaining, or just lounging hanging out 🙂 I offer the utmost respect to others and fur babies! They will receive love and feel at home and most importantly do everything I can for you and your fur baby to be comfortable. We have 3 acres fully fenced in, so plenty of room to let out energy and playtime 🙂
“Brenda and her mom took great care of my little boy for the day while I took care of some appointments. He had their company as well as their dog Scooby's. He came home happy and relaxed, and I'm happy to have found a great fit for daycare for my dog with isolation anxiety.”
About: Animals have always been one of my greatest passions, and I have dedicated much of my life to their care and well-being. Throughout college, I worked at an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience assisting with the care of animals of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. That experience strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, and compassionate care while reinforcing my commitment to advocating for those who cannot speak for themselves. Beyond my professional experience, I have owned and fostered multiple dogs at one time, providing safe, loving homes while helping prepare them for permanent families. I have also volunteered extensively with the nonprofit F.U.R., where I transported rescue animals across the state, fostered litters of puppies, and supported countless rescue efforts. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and teamwork in animal welfare. I believe every animal deserves compassion and respect, regardless of breed, age, size, or background. I approach each animal without bias, focusing instead on understanding their individual needs and providing the care, advocacy, and second chances they deserve. My lifelong dedication to animal welfare continues to drive my passion for making a positive impact in the lives of animals and the people who care for them. As an elementary school teacher, I have a schedule that allows me to provide consistent care and attention to animals. My workday ends in the afternoon, giving me plenty of time each evening for exercise, training, and companionship. I also have weekends, holidays, and school breaks free, and I am home full-time during the summer. This flexibility makes it possible for me to meet the physical and emotional needs of the animals in my care while providing them with a stable, loving environment. I have a large fenced-in backyard that provides a safe, secure space for pets to play and relax. My home is near the water in a large neighborhood with sidewalks and friendly neighbors who also have pets, creating a welcoming and trustworthy environment for walks and outdoor time.
About: Experienced in most breeds and love to pamper and adore your pet! I will spend time with them and make sure they enjoy themselves while you are away! I am a current graduate student at the University of Florida, therefore I have a flexible schedule and availability to be with your beloved pet longer than most! I understand that pets are a precious part of the family. They deserve love and attention even when you're away. I will be happy to care for them!

“Ansley was so helpful walking my fur baby while I was out of town. She updated me daily with breaks and pics, which made leaving my pup behind so much easier for me and for him. She even alerted me to a potential issue with my dog so I could look into it quickly. Would definitely recommend her service to anyone.”

About: Since middle school, I have grown up caring for many different animals. I was responsible for the care of my pets; including two rabbits, three guinea pigs, a leopard gecko, and four snakes. All of these pets lived a very lavish and spoiled life. During high school, I used my volunteer hours fostering dogs, rehabilitating them for their forever homes. The care for these dogs included feeding, walking/playing, training, and medical care. I started working in the veterinary medicine field almost two years ago. This field has given me the experience of providing compassionate medical care, no matter the patient. I am now a full time student studying for radiology. I am a full time student, in which I attend classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am free in the early mornings and late afternoons of those two days. The rest of the week is completely free besides the 2-3 hours I spend studying for school. I tend to be very watchful with pets and do not like to let animals out without some sort of lead unless your yard is fenced in. I will always prioritize safety over anything else to ensure a safe and positive experience for all parties involved. I also ask that I be either provided an emergency contact and/or a preferred veterinary caretaker in case (god forbid) an emergency does come up. I also ask that if a pet is receiving medications, there are clear directions with clear times to administer medications.
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I bring a calm, confident, and loving approach to every pet I meet. Big dogs don’t scare me—in fact, I adore them—and my background as a vet tech in an emergency clinic means I’m comfortable handling medical needs, including administering medications. I truly love all animals, and I talk to every dog, cat, or critter as if they were my own. Your pets will be in patient, capable, and genuinely caring hands with me. I can work from anywhere and I set my own hours so I'm available for any schedule that you and your pets need, even if it's just a visit. In your home, I care for your pets just like my own. Our cat sleeps with us, Tank is on the floor on my side is the bed. I talk to them like they're my best friends. 😊
About: I’ve taken care of multiple breeds of dogs and cats. I take care of friends, family and others’ pets. I love pets and love to play with pets. I currently teach so I am able to help before school, during lunch and after school. I can help as many times throughout the day if needed. I have cats at my house and we play and cuddle constantly.

About: Since childhood I discovered the joy and compassion in caring for animals. I started volunteering on my summers at Palm Beach Zoo. Where working along side staff to feed, clean, and care for the goats, sheep, and miniature ponies in the petting zoo. I began this journey working as a certified Veterinary Assistant after graduating South Tech High School.

I am looking forward to offering personalized care for my clients and pets now that my dog Missy is no longer alive I have enormous love to share. I help care for my brothers dogs, ducks,lizrd, snake, and tortoise. I can use my skills to help ensure pets health while parents are away. I can offer personalized care for small animals( cats and dogs) and exotic animals( pet lizards, snakes, and many more. I will greatfully look after any pets you have...no matter how big or little. I am currently working at the Jacksonville Zoo and Botanical Gardens part time and I am looking to return to pet sitting for the rest of my work and days as well as off days.
