“Once again Reggie came home a very happy doggie! Nicole is always very responsive to my texts and I love the pictures that she sends me of him throughout his stay! I have no worries that Reggie is in great hands while I'm away!”
“Hermun is always so sweet and kind with our dog and he loves going to her house. She is so professional, responsive, and so knowledgeable about dogs. The first time he stayed at her house he got sick and she handled it so well and with such compassion. We were so worried taking him somewhere he was unfamiliar initially, but she made him feel so at home and her dog Max has such a calm energy that helped him as well. We feel lucky to have found her.”
“Amazing sitter for Sparkles! She sent great updates and clearly gave lots of love and attention. When our flight got delayed, she happily extended the stay an extra day with zero hassle. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible pet sitter. Would book her again in a heartbeat!”

We would highly recommend Margarita and Clarissa for anyone in the area needing a safe and loving home for their pet. Thank you again for the love and care.❤️. Bonus, they have an amazing backyard!”
“I highly recommend Matt. He took great care of our pup. He met up with us before our dog stayed with him for a meet and greet. I thought that was awesome and showed that he cared about the well being of our pup and that they got along well before her stay. During her time with him he kept is well updated on how she was doing. Overall very good experience and will rebook again with him when the time comes. Thanks Matt!”
“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.”
“Melinda and David were so understanding of our dog’s needs. He is very nervous around new people and just needs someone who will respect his boundaries and let him warm up. They immediately understood this and did everything we asked to make him and us feel comfortable.”
“Jen was absolutely fantastic. She sent me photos regularly. Her and her family were doting on Alphie and made my heart so happy that he was in great care, from pup cups to long walks!”
“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.”
“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!”

“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! ❤️”

“As first time Rover users, I was nervous to trust a stranger with our boys, but Naomi made us feel SO comfortable and at ease and updated us every day. She is detailed and caring, going so far as to ask questions about litter patterns to make sure everything was good with our boys. She is wonderful and we will definitely be repeat clients! :)”
“Matthew was great with our two dogs! He sent updates of his time with them and made sure they were loved and cared for. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a compassionate responsive dog sitter!! :)”
“Ambria is a fantastic sitter! My kitties treated her at the door anxious for her loving attention! In the past they have chosen to stay under my bed, but not with Ambria! Even my flock of birds responded positively to her! Aside from the loving care she gave to my pets, she sent me fantastic photos of all my babies! In response to this great care my family has already scheduled a trip in November and a trip in December!!!”
“Kendra is amazing! We have 4 cats and she did a wonderful job caring for them while we were out of town for a week. We got dozens of photos daily and it was so nice to see that they were being cared for in real time. One of our cats requires daily medicine and she found the trick to getting them to take their pill - which has been a game changer for us! Going out of town is stressful, especially with pets that you have to leave behind. But now that we have Kendra, it’s one less thing to worry about. We will definitely be using Kendra again to care for our pets!”
“Chloe is amazing!!! She sent me pictures of the kitties, was great with communication, and such a sweet person as well. I look forward to booking with her in the future!”
“Matt took excellent care of my cat while I was away for a week! He sent tons of photos and provided tons of updates so I knew she was well taken care of. I will definitely be booking again the next time I need a cat sitter. He definitely has a natural ability to care for animals and made me feel at ease leaving my cat for the first time.”
About: I have owned cats or been around them my entire life. I’ve always had a genuine love for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I take the time to build trust and provide care that fits their individual needs.
“Valerie is so awesome! She did an amazing job watching over our 5 kitties while we were away. She sent daily pics letting us know they were all ok and gave them all the care they needed. She’s the best!”
“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!!”
“Carly helped out on short notice when I needed someone to feed and check in on my cat during holiday travel. She took note of special instructions and did a great job.”
“Shelby did a wonderful job taking care of our cats! Even though leaving them for a few days is hard, we know he takes good care of them when we’re gone and we never have to worry!”
“Daphne was fantastic and kept us up to date on our dog while we were gone! We even had a vase of flowers that somehow got spilt while we were gone and she cleaned all the water up without even saying anything to us. Thank you so much!!!”
“Kelsey was so great! She is always quick to respond and is so sweet. My cat was so happy when I got home, I’m glad to know she had great company while I was away. I would recommend Kelsey to anyone!”
“Kiran is incredible! She took amazing care of my bunny Theo for an extended period of time, always making sure to update me throughout the day with photos! She went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.”
“Aubrey was fantastic, she's a great communicator and so clearly loves animals! My kitties warmed up to her quickly and were very calm and happy when I returned home. Will definitely rebook!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I have been dog sitting since I was about for about 7 years for neighbors and friends. I have also walked my elderly neighbor's dog for them when they were unable to. I am currently working full time but I love to go on long walks in my spare time! I enjoy being outside and meeting new fur babies. Depending on how you request, I could meet you at your front door or come into your home to retrieve your fur baby to take them on a walk. I do understand that living in Florida where is mostly hot and humid and some dogs cannot handle the heat or become exhausted easily. However long you request to have your dog walked I will bring a water bowl for your pet to stay hydrated. :) I am currently working full time but I am trying to open up my schedule more by the end of summer. But I am currently available on the weekends and some days during the week. I can be flexible to just message me and I will let you know! Walking your dog around your neighborhood where your fur baby is familiar is important to me! I will make sure your fur baby has plenty of water and time to enjoy themselves on our walk. For drop ins I will sit with your baby as long as is needed. Making sure they get cuddles, stimulation, meds, and just some human time.

“Samuel was extremely flexible with pickup and drop off, which made everything so easy and simple. Thank you again for taking such good care of Frénki. I really appreciate it!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and gone through extensive dog training as well as being a foster mom for the Southeast Beagle Rescue. I currently have a beagle named Riley that I adopted through the Humane Society and was unfortunately one of the 4000 Envigo beagles that were rescued. He loves playing with other dogs and is very social. I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. I also have a two Dog maximum limit. About my home/services: I live in a cozy condo I own in South Tampa with a fenced in backyard. I am fine with dogs on the couch and bed. I have experience with older dogs, special needs animals and administering medication. Expect a lot of pictures and videos of your dog having fun! I require a meet and greet. This way you and your dog will be more comfortable when you leave them in my care since it will not be the first time we have met when you drop them off leading to less stress when you leave. Criteria: Activity level low to medium. Absolutely no puppies. No dogs that bark at everything (unless someone knocks at the door) or dogs with separation anxiety. We look forward to meeting you. 🐶 I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. Drop off and pick up times are from 8 AM to 9 PM. I have a fenced in backyard. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couch. Feel free to bring their bed or anything else that makes them comfortable. Whatever your rules are, they are the rules here so if they aren't allowed on furniture...no problem.
“Evgenia was a great sitter! She played with my puppy outside a lot and took him on a couple of walks. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent pictures!”
“Bruno’s first Rover experience went well! He can be selective and wary of strangers but Melinda and David made him feel comfortable and took it slow with him. Will book again! Thank you!”
“How did we know our princess was in good hands? When she literally ran up the steps to see her new BFF Penny. Can't forget to mention Amanda and Matthew are amazing. It's nice to know we can leave our girl and know she will be loved and cared for.”
“Natali & KJ were AWESOME! This was my first time using a service like this for daycare, and I couldn’t be happier. My dog is reactive and requires a special touch, which he received, better than I could have expected. The updates and pictures throughout the day plus “report card” after were so appreciated. I will absolutely rebook. Thank you!”
About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including senior dogs. I only board one dog at a time (or two dogs from the same household), which allows me to give each dog plenty of individual attention. I work from home and am around most of the day, so dogs staying with me are rarely left alone. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, pay close attention to each dog’s needs, and always treat them with kindness and respect. I work primarily from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide pets with consistent attention throughout the day. I am available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting on most weekdays and weekends. I always do my best to follow each pet’s routine and make them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Animals have always been an important part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, including senior dogs and dogs with health conditions that require extra attention and medication. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requirements. I understand how important trust is when leaving a beloved pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and respect I would want for my own.
About: I have taken care of all the animals, fish, dogs big and small and the kitties! I love all the animals! Can’t wait to meet them! I work a very flexible job! Would be able to go check on your babies throughout the day and stay over night whenever needed! :) I am a homebody so I am good to stay and hang out with your animal as needed! I can also do drop ins and come back and let them out late and back early in the am! We can take long walks or just let them have a sniff-ari 😉. I treat them like they are my own! I can also board your sweet babies with me at my boyfriend’s apartment! He’s doesn't have any animals so it’s a great place for animals if they need to be alone!
“Danielle is one of the best I've found on Rover! She was very communicative and so great with my Theo. She sent me tons of pictures and several updates throughout the day which made me feel so much more comfortable. I would definitely bring Theo over to stay with her whenever I am in Tampa again! <3”
About: Hi everyone! New to Rover after pet sitting from word of mouth and referrals back in North Carolina. I am flexible with pricing to start generating some bookings and reviews in FL! I have been pet sitting for over 10 years with all types of dogs. I have experience fostering dogs of all breeds and sizes, most which come from bad situations and need help with their confidence and training, so I am able to help potty train and work through other issues. I have one small dog, Nemo. Care would be private (only your dog and Nemo) safety is my first priority, and they will be watched at all times! My avalibility is set only for days that I will be able to be home 24/7. If other days are needed and your dog is good to be by themselves for any certain time, message me and I will be more available !! I work from home Monday and Friday and reserve my weekends for spending time with my pup. My dog Nemo has separation anxiety so I am normally home with him all day, or bring the dogs with me to a local restaurant or park to get outside and be active. This will be a private service, only Nemo and your dog. I am very attentive and will be able to send lots of pictures to you!
About: For the last 5 years, I co-managed a highly-rated Rover account and raised our family dogs for 7 years. Following a recent separation, I am starting fresh on my own profile. I deeply miss having dogs in my daily life, which means your pup gets 100% of my focus, a quiet home, and years of seasoned, professional pet-care experience! This fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home full-time, meaning I am always here to provide constant supervision, companionship, and a structured schedule. Because I work a standard desk job, having a guest dog in my home acts as a quiet, natural companion in the background of my workday. Having co-managed a high-volume Rover account for 5 years and being a dog owner myself for 7, I am incredibly accustomed to balancing professional desk work with regular potty breaks, structured play, and affection without any disruption to my focus. Your dog will never be left alone, and my schedule is perfectly set up to treat them like a VIP member of my household throughout the day. I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. I follow each owner’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. Pets are never left alone for extended periods, and I make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and regular bathroom breaks. I also provide updates with photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and at home during their stay.
About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. 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 love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. 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 can’t say enough good things about Michelle. My dog is super anxious, so I was really worried about leaving her in someone else’s care—but the minute Michelle opened the door, Mabel ran right in. It was an instant bond. Both Mabel and I could immediately feel Michelle’s warmth and kindness. I felt completely at ease knowing she’s an experienced dog sitter and that Mabel was in such good hands. When I picked Mabel up, she was calm and happy. Now, whenever we go back, Mabel runs straight through the door, so excited to see her—which says everything.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets pretty much my entire life! 🐾 As a college student, I miss my pets at home so much, so I’m excited to have the opportunity to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I also trained my Rat Terrier at home, so I have experience with basic training and understand the patience and consistency that comes with working with young puppies. I’m currently growing my Rover account and would love the opportunity to meet some new furry friends! ❤️ Whether you need someone for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting, I’d be happy to help. Feel free to message me with any questions, book with me, or share my profile with friends and family who may need a pet sitter! 🐶🐱 I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which means I’m home and available the rest of the week to give your dog plenty of attention, love, and care! 🐾 If you do need care on a Tuesday or Thursday, I also have two amazing roommates who absolutely love animals and would be happy to give your pup some extra attention while I’m in class. Your dog will never be left without someone around to care for them! ❤️ Our house is currently pet-free, so your dog will have our full attention without having to worry about other pets in the home! 🐶❤️ Our building is also pet-friendly and has a fenced-in dog park right on the property. There’s a nice sidewalk that goes all the way around the building, making it perfect for daily walks and getting some energy out! 🐾 It’s a safe, comfortable environment where your pup can relax, play, and feel right at home!
About: We love dogs! We lost our fur baby and miss having a four-legged fur friend around. We will treat your dog like our own. My husband has fostered over 20 dogs and we had our mix for over 8 years before losing her to lymphoma. Prior to that I had a Great Dane for 11 years. We have recently cared for friends and neighbors' dogs. I am recently retired and my husband works part time so we have plenty of time to shower your pet with attention and as many walks as they want! We have a fenced yard and are conveniently located steps away from a dog park if your dog prefers being social. We live in a beautiful, quiet, pedestrian friendly neighborhood.
“Matt was awesome! Very communicative with keeping me updated about everything. Took really good care of my dog while I was away and even brought my package in from the porch! Will definitely use Matt again in the future”
About: Longtime pet owner who loves animals and volunteers at the Humane Society. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to providing loving, dependable, and personalized care. I work full-time, so I have flexible availability in the early mornings, afternoons, and on weekends! Feel free to reach out anytime, and we can find a schedule that works for both of us. I pay close attention to your pet’s individual needs and care routine. Their safety, comfort, and well-being always come first, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care while you’re away.
“Brian was always on time and communicative! Our dog started showing signs of a stomach ache (which is not abnormal for her) but he let us know right away and kept us updated each time he saw her.”

About: My husband and I had a German shepherd for 13 years that we recently said goodbye to and have taken care of dogs/cats of all ages for friends and family. Great with seniors and big dogs. My husband grew up with 5 dogs in his household of all different breeds. Can administer medication and help with training if needed! I work from home twice a week and my husband is fully remote so between the two of us we will be home with your pup all day to watch them closely and ensure they are never alone. We live in a small pet friendly apartment in a walkable and pet friendly neighborhood. We have dog toys, enrichment toys, and dogs beds in the home but please bring your own if your pet prefers! We took our dog everywhere with us and know all the pet-friendly areas should your dog prefer spending most of their time outdoors.
“Shelby is amazing!! He’s great. I needed someone to walk my dog after surgery. Shelby was dependable, trustworthy, friendly, independent, and adaptable to our routine and household. Will definitely book again. Our household didn’t miss a beat thanks to his help.”
About: Hi! I bring experience from working at a dog boarding facility, and currently working for Woofies of South Tampa, a pet sitting/dog walking business! I’ve trained puppies, cared for senior pets and dogs that need daily medication. I also grew up surrounded by animals, including three family dogs and two cats. This hands on experience helps me provide attentive, reliable, and loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs! I want every pet parent to have complete peace of mind, knowing their fur baby is getting all of the love, exercise, attention, and care 😊 Having a flexible schedule allows me to make pet care my top priority. I customize each day to provide walks, meals, playtime, and loving care for every pet. I care for pets in their own home, maintaining their routine with feeding, walks, play, and affection to ensure comfort, security, and a stress free experience.
About: As the owner of a young (crazy) German Shepherd, I personally understand that high-energy and working-breed dogs greatly benefit from lots of physical activity, mental engagement, and confident care. I also understand how particular you may be about the person caring for your dog, because I feel the same way about mine. This is why I have a high standard of care for the dogs I take care of, and I pride myself on being dependable, observant, and attentive to their safety. I am especially comfortable with large, energetic dogs, but I’m happy to care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I offer walks/runs and drop-ins tailored to each dog’s energy level, personality, routine, and needs. I am available all day on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. I would love to see your pup routinely, but I also accept same-day bookings on these days! My availability on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays is limited to early mornings, which will need to be scheduled the day before at the latest! Your pet’s safety and your trust are my top priorities. If you so choose, I would love to have a meet-and-greet before our first booking, but this is not required! During walks, I stay attentive to our surroundings and provide extra space from unfamiliar dogs, wildlife, traffic, or anything else that could make your dog uncomfortable or overly excited. I will never allow your dog off leash or introduce them to another animal. Living in Florida, I always monitor the weather, pavement temperature, and your dog’s behavior and will adjust the intensity of our activity accordingly. For drop-ins, I will carefully follow all feeding, medication, potty, play, and home-security instructions. I’ll also send lots of photos and a detailed update after each visit so you know how your pet is doing!
“Ahmed took amazing care of my dog and made the entire experience stress-free. He was responsive, dependable and kept me updated with photos and messages. My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in good hands. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Small world!! we were both born up in New Jersey area. He’s a wonderful communicator. My dog immediately took to him. I’m so grateful I saw him on Rover.”
“Aubrey, thanks for being so sweet with Halo. We really appreciate that you give us from your time to take care of him last minute. Thanks for the communication and the professionalism. Hopefully Halo can see you again. God bless”

I am able to do walks, playtime, feedings, giving medication whatever is needed! I work in hospitality so I have a flexible schedule I am always free mornings and midday, and can let animals out late at night when needed. I currently live in an apartment with 2 dogs so only available for drop in visits. I cannot care for animals at my own place.

“I am so grateful for Chavelly for taking care of my fur baby this past weekend. She sent pictures and videos daily to show me he was ok and happy. Thank you Chavelly! I will definitely keep you in mind for any future services I may need with Rover! :)”
“10/10 recommend ! Took care of my best friend like her own. Sent me so many daily pictures and updates while I was away missing my girl. Couldn’t be happier :)”
About: Love and grew up with dogs my entire life! Have had multiple different breeds. We raised multiple puppies starting from 8 weeks old so I know how to encourage dogs well. If I was any animal… I would be my dog😋 I am available for dog walking and drop ins every weekend and weekdays 5pm and on. I love to walk and would love your furry friend to join me!! There are multiple dog parks in my apartment complex and many save neighborhood streets around me to walk on. I love the surrounding homes and so will your furry friend!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, especially French Bulldogs, and have experience caring for animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to hamsters, fish, and even horses. I also volunteered at a dog rescue in Chicago for about a year, so I’m very comfortable with dogs who are shy, nervous, need patience, or simply take a little extra time to warm up. I currently have a very friendly French Bulldog of my own, so I’m especially familiar with dogs who need a little extra attention or have health considerations. He recently had spinal surgery, which has given me firsthand experience with giving medication, following restrictions, keeping up with special care instructions, and being extra attentive to a dog’s comfort and mobility. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog wants three long walks a day and nonstop playtime or would rather curl up on the couch and get attention, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I genuinely love having animals around and treat every dog in my care like they’re my own. I work from home full-time, which makes my schedule extremely flexible and allows me to give pets a lot of attention throughout the day. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches while I’m at work. I’m able to take multiple walks throughout the day, accommodate different potty schedules, give medications or additional care when needed, and adjust my routine around your dog’s normal schedule. I’m also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and will do my best to make things as easy and convenient as possible for you. I have an elevator and potty area in my building so no need for stairs/going far! I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. My dog is extremely friendly and would love to keep them company, but I’m also happy to give dogs their own space and alone time whenever they need it. I’m able to completely separate a dog if needed and care for them that way! I’m very attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs, including medications, dietary restrictions, anxiety, or other special care. Dogs are welcome on the couch and in my bed, and since I work from home, they’ll get plenty of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. I’m willing to send photo updates throughout the stay, usually one update every 4-5 hours, so you can feel at ease knowing everything is going okay!
“They were so accommodating accepting our TWO doggos LAST minute as our sitter fell through. We had never used Rover before, but they made our worries fade quickly with consistent updates, write ups on how they are doing, and photos of our pups. They have a huge area the doggies can play and get their energy out, and took them on walks consistently. We will definitely be using again!”
“Aisha took such good care of Peaches. She always answered me back and sent me a picture while I was away for the holiday. When I picked Peaches up, she was happy and almost didn’t want to leave! I will definitely use Aisha again. Thank you!”
“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💫”
“Cassandra was excellent with Pepper. Great communication with daily updates and photos. My old girl was not stressed at all while I was away. Would definitely recommend Cassandra and will be requesting her again!”
“Shannon did an amazing job! She sent so many pictures and videos of my dog to keep me updated throughout the weekend. She even let my dog tag along to a doggy bday party on the beach, which made me so happy. Shannon was super communicative an flexible and my dog came home a happy girl”
“I can not say enough how amazing Viviana was!!!! She is clearly a dog lover and kept me up to date with pictures and notes on how my girl was doing. She took such great care of her and really spent a lot of quality time including playing a game to basically hand feed my dog because she doesn’t like to eat when not in our home! I was amazed and will definitely be using Viviana again.”
“Bella was so great with my pup Gino. She sent so many photos and updates while I was away and he came back to me happy and healthy. I will definitely be a return customer and can confidently recommend her to others!”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family’s pets on and off for the past several years while they’re out of town and I currently have a cat of my own! I'm a student at the University with classes Monday-Friday but I have breaks throughout the day and I'm completely available at night on weekdays and all during the weekends. I would make sure any gates are locked if letting the pets outside and that they’re properly fed throughout the day with enough water as well.
