“I received many photos showing that Jax was happy, entertained, and relaxed. I liked that he was with other dogs, and that Erving was present most of the time with them. Very happy with the service.”
“I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.”
“Joshua took amazing care of our dog Mya while we were away. From the start, they were super responsive and made sure to accommodate everything we needed. During Mya’s stay, Joshua kept us in the loop with regular updates and cute photos, which really put our minds at ease knowing she was doing well. Plus, when our plans changed last minute, they were totally flexible and made everything stress-free for us. We’ll definitely be reaching out to them again next time we need a sitter!”
“Hermun was amazing! (As well as her trusted assistant, Riley - her adorable Beagle). She met with me before I booked and let Macie explore her home and check compatibility with our dogs. She would send me daily pictures and was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. I wasn’t worried about Macie’s happiness or safety. She has a great back yard which is protected and gated allowing Macie to enjoy the outdoors. I will absolutely rely on Hermun and Riley for future visits.”
“I cannot express how grateful we are that we found Cece, she is always our #1 choice if she is available. I get updates everyday on how Cash is doing and he has such a great time when he goes over there. He stayed about a week this time and she even gave him a bath which I was so thankful for after getting home from a long trip. I cannot recommend her enough, thank you Cece!”
“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Maxine. The love & care she takes is evident the minute you walk through her door. The daily pictures & updates made it so easy to enjoy my vacation knowing that he was being doted on to the max. We will absolutely be repeat clients!”
“Catherine was so sweet! She was very prompt in responding to my questions and flexible when my return flight was delayed. My dog had a wonderful time with her and will be visiting again soon!”
“Nicole was a wonderful host and sitter for my 1-yr old cat. She was also very accommodating when I had a travel delay on my return home. Above all, I really appreciate that she was patient with Bella, who can be a little shy and timid at times. She was even able to get her to snuggle on the couch! I would definitely hire Nicole for future pet sitting :)”
“Kiran is the best sitter! Our Lily is always well taken care of and she always comes back happy😊 Kiran is responsive and communicative throughout the stay. Definitely recommend!”
“I had such a great experience boarding my two dogs with Haley! She was super responsive and took extra care with my reactive dog, which made me feel so much more at ease while I was away. I could tell she really cared and made sure both dogs were comfortable and happy. She was also flexible with drop off and pickup times, which I really appreciated. The dogs came home happy, I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Would highly recommend Kristin! She sent a lot of updates and my dogs seemed to be having a great time the entire time they were in her care. Everyone in her family is a dog lover so there was no shortage of attention to go around. Looking forward to using her again in the future!”
“There are sitters who are doing this to make a living, and there are sitters who take care of pets because they love and care for pets. Shayna does love and care for pets under her care. We got daily pictures, updates and our dog was happy, happy all the time. We absolutely will take Rosie back to Shayna and we totally recommend her.”
“Rachel was everything you would hope for in a dog sitter!! She sent us a daily photo of our Murphy girl, was super responsive when we had questions and very flexible with pick up and drop off times! Murphy had so much fun staying at her house and we will definitely be reaching out to have Murphy stay again! We are so thankful to Rachel for taking great care of our girl, we were able to actually relax on vacation knowing Murphy was safe and happy.”
“Eileen took such good care of my schnauzer! This was the first time I’ve left my pup with someone he doesn’t know and I have no doubt she treated him with such good care. She sent me multiple updates a day with how he was doing and pictures which warmed my heart and eased my mind. I will definitely be using Eileen again next time I need a sitter for my pup!”
“My Khloe had a great stay with Madisyn. I felt very comfortable when I left her in her care. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, which I appreciate it. I look forward to using Madisyn for future boarding”
“Amazing sitter was looking for someone last minute because we had no one to watch our dog. She took him in. He got to play with her dog and spend an amazing day while we had a fun day at Busch Gardens.”
“Matt took the best care of my dog! She had the greatest time. He was very accommodating of pickup and drop off time. I will definitely use him again in the future!”
“Virginia was a WONDERFUL sitter—if I could give more than 5 stars I would! ⭐️ This was my first time using Rover, but won’t be my last! I expressed my anxieties of being away from Bij on a work trip, and she eased them all. I got regular and often updates—she truly treated and loved Bij as if he were her own. And her fur baby is just as precious—Cozy and Bijou became best friends! From letting him sleep in a bigger bed, to sharing all Cozy’s toys, to regular walks and playing all the fetch he could handle—Bijou was on a vacation! Virginia is kind and communicative, and I will happily be booking with her again! ❤️”
“Kory was great and provided wonderful updates! Jack is reactive with other dogs, and Kory handled him very well. Jack seemed completely relaxed when I picked him up!”
“We were very happy with Margarita and Clarissa. They treated our dog with love and care. They sent pictures and gave updates almost every day. Their home is large and comfortable.”

“Oh my gosh Jenna was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my cat Tiki, my cat was going through a medical situation throughout the time Jenna was watching her and she handled it so well and I came back from vacation to a much healthier cat! I’m so impressed by her communication and tender care towards my cat. I will hire her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anybody!”
“Katie is amazing! She’s one of the best cat sitters I’ve had. She’s extremely thorough and communicative and truly goes above and beyond every time. You can tell she really cares. Thank you!”
About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, dogs that need medication, and dogs with seizure disorders. I also have a dog child that is a mini Goldendoodle, Clover, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home while going to school full time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that lets me give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to stick to their routine. I truly enjoy caring for animals, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to medications, crate time, playtime, and any other preferences you have to help them feel comfortable and at home.
“Addison was amazing with my 3 cats! It was so reassuring to be on vacation and know my cats were well-loved and taken care of while I was gone. Highly recommend!!”
“Chloe is a very caring and kind petsitter. She came to the rescue on very short notice and brought a sense of calm and order in a difficult time for me. She went the extra mile who I will use her again for sure.”
“We could not recommend Juliana more - so thoughtful and communicative in the way she looked after our cat, Willie, while we were gone. 10/10 recommend her if you need someone to watch over your beloved pets.”
About: I’ve been a cat owner for my entire life and currently have three cats of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets. I’ve also cat-sat for neighbors and have experience caring for cats with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering lots of playtime and attention, and making sure your cat stays happy and comfortable while you’re away. I know that every cat is different, so I always take the time to follow their routine and make them feel safe and loved. I’ll care for your cat as if they were one of my own and keep you updated along the way for your peace of mind.
“This was my first time leaving my cat with someone new, and I was really stressed. But she took great care of him, kept me updated with pictures, and made my last-minute trip so much easier. Thank you!!”
“Bekah is the best! She always goes above and beyond, is very flexible, and sends the cutest updates about my boy. I can tell she really enjoys spending time with him, and he’s much less stressed when I return home after being away. I’m so grateful to have found her!!”
“Bethany was amazing with our two kitties! She always takes great care of them and communicates updates about our boys each time we travel. Highly recommend her taking care of your fur babies!”
“Amazing as always! Natalie is so sweet and very responsible. I love getting the cute pictures of my kitty getting all kinds of love while I am away. Thank you again!”
“Meg watched our cat Winnie while we were out of town and did a marvelous job! Winnie loved Meg and was very energetic and social when Meg came to visit! Meg was awesome to communicate with as well and helped given Winnie the interaction she needed while my wife and I were gone out of town!”
“Alexis was fantastic! She was great with my dog and communicated very well about when she was visiting and how the dog was doing. Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“Isabel was amazing. She came over to meet my cats before I left and they were instantly in love with her, which is not their norm. Usually, my older cat is skittish and standoffish, but he loved her immediately. She took such amazing care of them, cleaning up messes, and playing with them. I came home to no anxiety from my cats, which is super rare. 11/10. My partner and I are going to call her every time we leave town.”
“Jordan did a great job with our kitties! We were nervous about going away for first time but they were both happy when we got back and well taken care of. Thank you Jordan! We hope to book again!”
“Ava took great care of my cat, Creed, while I was gone for two weeks! She kept me updated with his day yo day and made sure he got all the attention he needed. She went above and beyond making sure he had a new little bird watching spot and got plenty of playtime.”
About: I have had dogs all my life, my parents would be at work most of the day so I would take my dogs for walks, feed them, and take care of them. I am committed to creating a nurturing and safe environment for every dog under my care, treating them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners by ensuring their furry friends receive the highest level of attention and love! I am a senior at George Mason University and have full availability! If I don't send pictures over the Rover app, I send them directly over text:) I follow the pet's established routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise schedules, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I spend quality time with each pet, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, reducing any anxiety they might feel in their owner's absence.

“Amanda and Matthew were excellent! When I dropped Xoey off, Amanda was welcoming and invited me to see her home where Xoey would be staying. Their pup is just the sweetest and got along great with mine! I could tell they provided great care to my baby and I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again next time we're in the Tampa area!”
About: Hello, potential new friend, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and training levels. I regularly puppy-sit guide dogs in training and have been educated on the specific standards and routines they must follow. This experience has strengthened my understanding of positive reinforcement, consistency, patience, and responsible pet care. Dogs and pups will always have close supervision, which is why I only like to pup sit two dogs at a time for an intimate sitting experience. I know all the nearby dog-friendly places to go. At night, I love cuddling up with pets. Our neighborhood is very pet friendly. I am ready and prepared to host your puppy. I even have a puppy first aid kit in our house, and our vet is less than a 5 min drive away, just in case. As you can see dogs are my passion and I will care for your pooch with love and kindness. Choose Sully & I Pet Care* for the trusted love and care that you know your dog deserves. *Sully from “Sully & I” has crossed the rainbow bridge I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a consistent part of my daily routine. I am available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Because my schedule is flexible, I can closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, playtime, medication, and rest routine. I also have availability for daytime, evening, weekend, and some last-minute requests. My home is currently pet-free, so visiting dogs and cats can enjoy a calm environment without having to adjust to resident animals. Pets are welcome on the sofa and are encouraged to relax and make themselves comfortable. I provide close supervision, keep doors and entryways secure, and carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medication, sleeping arrangements, and household rules. I also prefer to care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention.

I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve.

I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their pups!”

I work part time at Health Mutt in Seminole Heights and have extensive knowledge and connections in the holistic food and grooming world. Let’s talk! I work from home and can take breaks as often as needed to take care of any animals in my care, especially for walks and play time I have one dog that loves to play with any other dogs, and my cat can be secured as necessary. I am happy to let dogs out or take them for walks.

“Addison is the best! So sweet and caring for my dog. Shes attentive, prompt, on time, and communicative. Would highly recommend Addison for your pet care needs :)”
“An absolute God-send! I live about 3 hours away and was coming to town for an event. Summer met me at Ulta to take my dog while I got my hair and make up done. Because I went to the wrong Ulta, i was late and she was so accommodating (I communicated for her, so do the same!). She even helped me keep my appointment there while she waited for my dog and I. My dog came back tail wagging and so happy she got to play ALL the fetch!!! Couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Thank you Shelby for caring for Mikha. You do a great job caring for her. We appreciate you. Love the little things you do to care for her —like setting up her toys to tuck her in or putting on baby Shark so she has some fun entertainment.”

Most of my studying is done online so I am able to care for your pet at any time it is convenient for you.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Serena Is Wonderful! Serena has been amazing with our Lab, Rebel, and we couldn’t be happier with her! She’s incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and Rebel absolutely loves his time with her. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and brings such a calm, positive energy. One thing we appreciate most is how dependable she is — Serena is always willing to step in and help whenever we need extra support, which has been such a lifesaver for us. Her communication and reliability are top-notch, and we always feel confident knowing Rebel is in great hands. We would absolutely recommend Serena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker — we’ll definitely keep using her!”

I have a sweet resident cat who is very used to other animals. However, for total safety and comfort, I have plenty of space and can easily keep my cat in a completely separate room during your pet's stay. You will receive daily text and photo updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing, eating, and playing!

“I received many photos showing that Jax was happy, entertained, and relaxed. I liked that he was with other dogs, and that Erving was present most of the time with them. Very happy with the service.”
“Joshua took amazing care of our dog Mya while we were away. From the start, they were super responsive and made sure to accommodate everything we needed. During Mya’s stay, Joshua kept us in the loop with regular updates and cute photos, which really put our minds at ease knowing she was doing well. Plus, when our plans changed last minute, they were totally flexible and made everything stress-free for us. We’ll definitely be reaching out to them again next time we need a sitter!”
“I had such a great experience boarding my two dogs with Haley! She was super responsive and took extra care with my reactive dog, which made me feel so much more at ease while I was away. I could tell she really cared and made sure both dogs were comfortable and happy. She was also flexible with drop off and pickup times, which I really appreciated. The dogs came home happy, I’d definitely book with her again!”

About: Hello! I come from a law-enforcement background and am now transitioning into my true passion: caring for dogs. My goal is to make this my full-time career, and I bring reliability, responsiveness, and a high level of awareness to every walk and visit. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I take pride in making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am currently transitioning careers, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and be available when you and your pet needs me most. I’m able to accommodate weekday and weekend requests, and I’m happy to build my schedule around your routine. As I work toward making this my full-time career, I prioritize clear and transparent communication about my availability so you always know exactly what to expect. Your dog will be welcomed into a safe, comfortable, and positive environment where they’ll never feel alone. I have a friendly lab mix named Cash, who loves keeping other dogs company and naturally adapts to their energy.
“Nelly was terrific! Penny was very happy and relaxed when I picked her up from Nelly. Penny enjoyed the yard and visiting the other dogs and she was quite at home at Nelly's house. I'll definitely ask Nelly to sit for Penny in the future. Thank you Nelly!”
“Maddie was so sweet & amazing!! We received plenty of photo/video updates throughout the visit and she was really communicative on how our Biscuit was doing. Her home looked very clean & the yard was well maintained - Banks is adorable & so friendly, Biscuit had a BLAST playing with him! We would definitely use Maddie again!!”
“Their whole family and care given to our dog is top of the line. If you are looking for a family that takes care of your pet like their own, look no further. Thank you so much!”
“On the first meet and greet, my dog was comfortable with Ada right away. She walked him around the block and it’s as if my dog had been with her before. Ada was so calm and loving with my dog and that meant a lot, because my dog gets very anxious, but with her he was so relaxed. Ada sent us videos and photos of our dog often, reassuring us that he was doing great. I highly recommend Ada and plan to rebook her again for our dog. Thank you so much Ada!!! We appreciate you!”
“Lynne and her husband were great sitters for our boy Knox :) I received pictures and updates throughout the stay. We would absolutely leave Knox with them again!”
“Celine and her fiancé were absolutely amazing. Above and beyond. Felt so comfortable leaving my small kitten and puppy in her/their care. 10/10 would recommend. She’s soooo sweet, attentive, caring and communicative. Cannot leave a glowing enough review. Thank you so much!!!”
“It’s people like Seaura that make Life better for everyone else. I was in a crunch trying to find someone at the last minute to keep my babies so we can attend my son’s high school graduation an hour from our home. Seaura answered my request quickly and graciously and I immediately got great vibes during our conversation! She welcomed both my pups with open arms for the last two days and they were happy to be with her. Her home was lovely and she kept me abreast of the “goings on”. I would chose Seaura any time we are in her area again!”
“Autumn was great with Vivi! I left her for 11 days and have no concerns or complaints! She always keeps you updated with images and photos. Would definitely book her again💫”
