“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter during my destination wedding! She took such amazing care of my dog, making sure she was always happy and entertained. She sent me constant photos and updates, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It was clear how much she cared for my dog, and I could tell they had so much fun together. I’m so grateful for her kindness and the love she showed my furry friend! Highly recommend!”
“Cristy is the best!! my little dog Mindy was very happy to stay with Cristy. I was especially pleased that Cristy sent me a couple of photos that showed how well Mindy was being cared for and loved. I am so thankful that I have become acquainted with the wonderful service that she provides. I know that at Mindy will be back as visitor.”
“Laurie was wonderful! Our pups had an absolute blast! She sent updates, videos and pictures throughout their stay. Reached out with questions and let us know any concerns. Will book with her again!”
“I am so thankful Sarah was able to watch my dog, Stella. She was incredibly knowledgeable and had a passion for pets. She sent many pictures and updates, which kept my mind at ease while I was away for 3 nights. Stella was in great hands and I would absolutely ask Sarah to watch her again!”
“My puppy absolutely enjoyed her boarding, she cried on her way home when I picked her up. Susan and her kids took great care of my puppy. She sent pictures and updates multiple times daily. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“Candace and Larry were absolutely wonderful with my lab! They communicated well with me and were extremely professional. I felt comfortable leaving him with them and would recommend them to everyone! He had a great time, too!”
“This is our second time leaving our two dogs with Sam, and I can honestly say it’s such a relief to find someone I trust to care for them when I have to go out of town. We usually try to bring them with us, but sometimes that isn’t possible, and it eases a lot of stress knowing we have someone we trust to take care of them like Sam does. We will continue to book with her in the future. Our dogs are always at ease when they’re with her, and I can tell that she takes great care of them as if they were her own.”
“So thankful for Christina and Oskar! They took great care of my baby Charley, gave us updates and sent pictures of how he was doing. They are very organized and detailed, making sure Charley had everything he needed and worked with him during his pickiness in eating.”
“Sophie had a wonderful time! I could tell she felt right at home from the moment she arrived. The updates and photos gave me so much peace of mind, and I felt completely confident that she was being well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in loving, capable hands while I was away. I would absolutely book again!🐾❤️”
“Caroline kept Koda for a week and sent pictures and videos at least once a day. Koda takes a little while to adjust to a new environment, which means he didn’t eat at first. Caroline went to the store and bought him chicken to add to his food, which got him eating. Not only did Koda have a fenced in yard to run around, but they also went on walks. I would recommend Caroline and will book her in the future knowing Koda will be well taken care of.”
“I can’t recommend her highly enough! She took wonderful care of my baby (my fur-child ❤️) and went way above and beyond what I expected. From day one, she sent me adorable pictures multiple times a day so I never felt out of the loop. She kept me updated. It truly gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pet came back happy, healthy, and clearly very loved. She’s the best I’ve ever used—hands down. I will 100% be booking her again and recommending her to everyone I know! Thank you so much for being amazing! 🌟🐾”
“Victoria was awesome and very sweet. She constantly gave me updates about my fur baby. Lots of pics. Pictures that made me feel that my dog felt very comfortable with her. Thank you so much Victoria. I definitely would/will be re-booking.”
“MJ is such a a caring and wonderful person! She took great care of our sweet Mielo. She sent pics each day and made us feel at ease. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her next time we go out of town. Thank you for taking care of my baby!”
“Douglania was a great host! I can tell Leo had a fun time, definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a person to care for your pooch. I would give her 10 stars if I could ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Thank you so much! 😊🐶This was Bono’s first time staying with her, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took such great care of him and kept me updated throughout, which I really appreciated. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear that Bono was in great hands. I’m definitely planning to book with her again whenever I need someone. Highly recommend!”
“Sasha was very caring for Dexter. She has so much love for animals and she’s awesome with communication and sending photos during the booking. Definitely using Sasha again she’s great!”
About: Hi, I am Tammy… I recently lost our beloved Great Dane, Blue after 7 wonderful years together. While our home feels a little too quiet right now, our love for animals hasn’t changed. I am opening our hearts and home on Rover to give other pets the same dedicated, high-quality care, comfort, and affection we gave our own. I have long backgrounds (30+ years) of dog ownership. I have attended many training courses (e.g., Sit Means Sit) and have full comprehension for the theory and application of training principles. I live in a child-free and pet-free home - your dog would would be my sole guest. My home is completely tiled on the first floor and accident proof. My home is fully dog-proofed for safety, quiet, and secure. My backyard is ample and unfenced, so we would provide regular, leashed access outside for potty breaks and walks as desired/appropriate. Dogs can expect to spend most time inside in the air-conditioning with access to the outdoors as needed/desired. I are not a farm, etc., where your pet would be primarily outside. I live in a wonderful, quiet, gated community. Several of my previous pets had special needs, requirements, etc., so I fully understand how critical those needs are. Whether your pup is an energetic fetch enthusiast, a senior dog who prefers slow strolls and cozy naps, or a dog with food allergies or specific dietary concerns, we follow your routine to the letter—including strict feeding and medication schedules. I would love to meet you and your fur baby! Feel free to reach out to schedule a Meet & Greet so I can ensure we’re the perfect fit for your dog's needs. I am available for long weekends only at this point - Friday through Sunday. If needed drop off also available Thursday evenings after 7pm. Pet care during this time would be my 100% focus. We have a large 2-story home in a safe, quiet, gated community. Our previous dog (Blue, the Great Dane) had severe allergies and strict dietary restrictions, so our home is dog-proofed, our yard is well-manicured to minimize allergens tracked inside, and the entire first floor is tiled in case of accidents. We are child and pet free - your pet would be our sole guest and 100% focus.
“Our boys seemed very happy to return (since initial stay) and all the photos & videos showed it. The updates are very much appreciated. I love that “home life” environment for them and a chance to socialize with others.”

“Jenna was so patient with our kitties. They can both be shy and she did great making them comfortable around her. Jenna goes above & beyond by cleaning up after our messy girls. Truly appreciate Jenna and will be booking again soon!”
“Andrew was a great fit right from the beginning. He has a great nature with animals and and our (not friendly at first) dog warmed right up to him. He was diligent about making sure our baby was taken care of and went above and beyond what we asked of him. We could not have been more at ease leaving for the weekend knowing our family member was taken care of and loved on. Andrew is exceptional and I will definitely use his services above anyone else.”
“Matt and Jamie took excellent care of our very particular little men. They went above and beyond and were proactive about informing us of any changes in and around the house or concerns that they noticed during their daily visits. We got great pictures and lots of comments about our boys’ behavior every day. Would absolutely book with again.”
“Morgan did a great job taking care of our outdoor neighborhood cats. She even managed to get pictures of them nearly every day. I can tell Morgan loves animals and genuinely cared about taking care of Vader and our sometimes porch cat Alexander.”
“Maricel showed up and showed out! I needed someone last minute and it was great that she had been here before and she remembered everything from the last time. She was very respectful of my place, showed up on time and sent plenty of pictures. Absolutely I would use her again.”
“Joy is an absolute JOY to work with. Her attention to detail is fantastic and you can tell she truly cares about animals. She took amazing care of my 2 kitty girls while my family was on vacation 🩷 I’m so grateful for her and the care she gave my babies while I was away. I look forward to working with Joy again in the near future!!”
“Stephanie has done a fantastic job watching our cat Opal and keeping an eye on our house. We have booked her at least three time so far and plan to do so every time we travel. She has excellent communication, is very flexible, and truly loves caring for animals. I give her my very highest recommendation. She's a true gem and wonderful pet sitter!”
“Shirley is the best. Not only is she an amazing person overall, but she’s the best pet sitter I’ve ever had for my 4 kitty cats. I was shocked that my one cat, who is usually terrified of new people, let her pet him on the second day! She really has a way with animals. You can tell she loves and cares for them deeply. While I was gone I got daily updates and pictures most days. Shirley really went above and beyond to care for my cats. She went over twice a day and hung out with them, let them out on the patio (which is their favorite thing ever). She even helped take out our trash and brought our mail in, which she didn’t have to do. I’ll definitely be a returning customer!”
“Caitlin is amazing! She responds super fast, and I hired her for a couple of nights to stay with my nervous kitty. She was able to bond with him which is tough to do, and sent me pictures and updates while I was away. I highly recommend Caitlin for house/pet sitting!”
“Megan is amazing! She went above and beyond for Remi and I. I appreciate her so much. Remi got super comfortable with her immediately and is happy to see her when he does. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“It was our first time leaving our cats, so we were naturally a little nervous. Laurie was absolutely wonderful! She kept us updated throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear they were well cared for, and they came home happy and relaxed. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book with Laurie again. Highly recommend!”

“If you are looking for someone to watch your pup, for whatever reason, look no further!!! Liliana is an absolute ANGEL!! Tanner goes to her about 4 times a week and to be honest, when I don’t have to work and he doesn’t have to go to her house, I sometimes feel bad lol because he LOVES going to see her!! Haha once we turn down her street, he is EXCITED!!! And that just warms my heart…can’t put a price tag on relief from knowing my boy is well taken care of and has the time of his life when he’s there!! Book with Liliana!! You won’t be disappointed!!”
About: Hi! I’m Victoria, a local Sanford dog sitter and proud dog mom to Leo, my toy schnauzer. I provide a safe, loving home environment where dogs are treated like family—not just pets. No cramped kennels or long hours alone. They’ll have the run of the house, plenty of outdoor time, belly rubs, treats, and all the love they could ask for. A brief Meet & Greet is required prior to sitting for all new clients to assure compatibility. I work remotely, which means your dog will have companionship and supervision throughout the day. Whether they’re here for a weekend getaway or an extended stay, they’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor breaks, playtime, cuddles, and individualized attention. I intentionally keep my boarding numbers low to create a calm, low-stress environment where every dog receives the care they deserve. We have policies in place to make sure dogs, who are escape artists, aren’t able to make a run for it, we space feeding time and walking time as research has shown eating prior to a walk and immediately after can cause bloating and other complications. It’s my mission your dog is safe at all times so you can worry less when your dog is not with you.

I’m currently working as a dispatcher part time. I can stay with pets or can bring them home with me. We can walk 3 times a day and i can stay with them overnight too. I live in an appartment but we have a big playing yard and walking trails. It’s a gatted community, But I can go to the clients home too.
About: I pet sit small to medium dogs in my home and yours if needed. I walk, exercise and play with them. Spend quality time with them. I do not cat sit in my home. I will go to your home and look after your cat. Litter change, feed and spend time with pet. As I mentioned, I do not sit cats in my house but I will visit your home and care for your cat in their environment.

“Laurie and Mark were SPECTACULAR!! They took such great care of my Tanner! They also introduced him to new things such as the pool, and chickens! Haha he had a blast playing with their dogs as well! Couldn’t ask for a better experience! Will definitely book with them again!”
About: Hi! I’m a mom and a lifelong dog lover who has grown up around dogs my entire life. I truly have a heart for dogs and believe they deserve a safe, loving, and fun environment while their owners are away. I enjoy spending time playing with them, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Your dog will be treated like part of the family, with lots of love, patience, and supervision. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Someone will always be home with your pet- either myself or my husband. We are flexible with drop off, but the latest time for pick up that we allow is 9pm unless arranged beforehand. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and receive lots of love, attention, and personalized care. I have a fully fenced yard where they can safely play and explore, as well as a covered patio where they can relax and enjoy the fresh air. Whether they're staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours, I'll do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and following their usual routine.
About: **New clients, please read below!** I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have a 14 year old Shih Tzu of my own that I have cared for since I was a teen. I frequently dog sit for family & friends and I have experience with all kinds of breeds. In the past, I have cared for small and large breeds as well as senior dogs & puppies! A dog’s safety and well-being is my number one priority. New Clients: I cannot accept same day requests as I require a meet & greet prior to booking! I currently work from home Monday through Friday. Due to my work schedule, the following is how I currently accept bookings; Drop-ins/walks: Midday or evenings (after 5pm) for weekdays. Weekends can be anytime. Boarding/day care: anytime, given that I’m available. I can be flexible, so if you need extra accommodations I can definitely work with you. A meet & greet will be required for any new clients to make sure we’re a good fit! I live in a pet friendly apartment in a gated community. There is a vast grassy area behind my building and I have a screened in balcony that is loved by many pups. I make sure to keep all pets within my view at all times. I can assure that your pet will always be safe & gets plenty of love and affection from me :)
“Sasha was wonderful with my puppy and so kind and understanding throughout the entire day. My puppy can sometimes be a handful and requires a lot of attention, and she ended up having an accident in her house even after a walk, which I felt terrible about. Sasha handled it with patience and was incredibly considerate about it, which I really appreciated. She was also very flexible and easy to work with, responsive, and great at communication. I felt completely comfortable knowing my puppy was being cared for by someone patient, accommodating, and genuinely good with dogs. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Mia! She is highly communicative, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Mia had an incredible day and came home happy and tired—which, as every dog owner knows, means she had a great time! Sarah also went above and beyond by accepting not one, but TWO last-minute bookings for me, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that Sarah genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Mia was so comfortable and happy with her. We’re both very happy customers, and Mia is already excited to go back tomorrow! 🐾🐾🐾 Thank you, Sarah! We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional Rover sitter.”
“Rachel did a great job taking care of Charlie. He was calm when I arrived to pick him up. Rachel reported that he ate his dinner with no problem and didn't bark once. Setting up the appointment was easy as was communication. Rachel provided a calm, safe, orderly environment for Charlie to relax and feel at home. And that helped me to relax, knowing he was well taken care of.”
About: Paws & Claws Pet Care of Lake Mary I am mom to an adorable 18lb pup who I raised using the positive reinforcement method. In addition, I've always had pets since I was young. On most days I am currently available for drop-in visits from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm Monday to Friday. On Saturday and Sunday I have more flexibility. In June 2026 my schedule changes to Thursday and Sunday with open flexibility and 9:30 am to 10:00 am on Monday to Wednesday and Friday to Saturday. Safety is a priority for me. For boarding, dogs must have updated vaccines, be clean, and free of fleas, worms, mites, etc. During boarding with more than one dog, I always make sure that the new dog gets along well with the other dogs before the pet parent leaves. It’s best to know your dog’s personality. If your dog shows signs that they do not respect other pets boundaries even during play then group boarding may not be the best fit. For everyone's safety, health, and happiness, if the dog does not get along then the pet parent may need to make back up arrangements. For best practices, parents should always have a back up option in case things don't work out or if there is an emergency. To prevent the risk of dogs not getting along, the pet parent can offer to buyout the sitter at their full capacity. Other best practices to consider: For pups who are sensitive to minor sounds, it may be best to book them with a sitter who lives in a house versus an apartment. For dogs who are prone to potty accidents or excessive drooling, it may be best to book them in a home that has wood floors versus full carpeting. Pups who don't like to share attention would match best with sitters who except one dog at a time. Pets who have extremely high energy may be happiest with sitters who have a fenced in yard for them to run around freely.
About: I had pets all my life. I assure you, your fur baby will enjoy my company with 100% attention. I have a big fenced in yard with plenty of room to play. I have experience with medical needs such as shots, eye and ear drops. Grooming and kisses are included. I work from home; therefore, I have eyes on the pets. I am a homebody and rarely go out unless it's a quick run to the grocery store. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play. I have a 3-year-old small chocolate lab named Easy P.Z. She is very well behaved and trained in a 2-week doggy bootcamp. P.Z. has been around many other dogs her whole life, will give any doggy guest a warm welcome and a great playmate.

“Morgan has been absolutely incredible with my two dogs. One of my babies has been sick and she has been so compassionate and patient with him during drop ins. She definitely eased my anxiety being away for the first time since he was hospitalized. I’d recommend Morgan to anyone looking for care for their dogs. Thank you for everything!”
About: While I may not have years of experience like some, my love for animals does not fall short. I have taken care of dogs, big and small. Some with dietary restrictions and rigid feeding routines and others with a more lax regimen. I have house sat/pet sat and stayed in the owner’s home on multiple occasions. I’ve taken care of four dogs of various sizes at once, done drop-ins to feed/change water and let the puppers out for friends and family members, and I’ve also stopped by to do something as simple as a quick walk. Whatever you need, I can do it! I can assure you that I will treat your pet as my own. I currently work full time at a law firm in downtown but I live in Sanford. I have a reliable car and I don’t mind driving. I can pet sit/house sit on weekdays but I have work so it would be morning care and evening/night. I can also take a midday break if needed. I am off on the weekends so I will be able to be there full time. Depending on the owner, I have put pets into their crates when leaving the house or at night for sleeping but I have also let them roam freely, if the owner allows it.
About: I am well versed on various training, dog sitting, boarding and walking methods for our canine family members. Gained hands on experience of training and handling with my 11 year old GSD. I personally researched for years and only then successfully trained my current 10 month old GSD, using my other 11 year old GSD as a control. I will offer free consults to clients in need of repeat services in order to determine the tailored needs for your dog. Always willing to go above and beyond for my love of dogs. Excel with all dogs and utilize communication with the client in order to fully understand the specific qualities, needs and wants of the dog in order to organize and manage effective walks/boarding/training. I have been living in the area for over 20 years and know all of the dog-friendly parks or areas that provide a clean and safe environment offering an array of enrichment. Knowledgeable in training and recognizing animal body language used to establish positive communication with the dogs. I can not only improve the lives of the dog, but also clearly communicate and empower the owner with training tips to continue effective conditioning for a well-trained dog. My remote position of over 5 years as a Sr Mortgage Underwriter was recently moved into the office (Tampa) and decided to take time off. Therefore, I am available 24/7 and mainly focusing on the transition into the Dog Walking/Boarding/Training business. *HOUSE SITTING SERVICE: Active as a less expensive alternative to booking numerous Drop-In visits with multiple dogs.

About: I am skilled in basic pet care, including exercising, sensory enrichment play time, feeding/watering, bathing/cleanliness, and administering medication.

About: I love dogs (as well as cats, lizards, and all kinds of animals)! Your best buddy will be well taken care of, pampered and loved while you're gone. I like playing with our quests and like walks with them. I currently have one cat. I have a nice size fenced in yard for quick pee breaks but we will most likely be taking them out for walks around the neighborhood often. I am usually available everyday of the week and are usually home most of the day. At times, with your permission, I would take your best buddy with us to local park walks, pet friendly restaurants, or local festivals. I’m semi retired and can take care of your pet almost anytime. I’m not usually gone from home long, but if I am I usually will take your pet with me I have a large fenced yard, with plenty of chances to run and play. I will be out in the yard wherever they are, so they are away safe in the backyard
“Julieth was amazing she came right when scheduled and took such good care of my babies. It’s so great to have someone reliable and clearly so in love with dogs to take care of my pups.”
“Athena is wonderful! My dog usually doesn’t take to people very quickly… But he did with her! She communicates really well and updates me with pictures every time she is with Bowie! Strongly recommend! Will use her again.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s needs, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, giving medication, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important pets are to families, so I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m also dependable, communicative, and willing to follow any special routines or instructions to keep your pet happy. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My daughter attends daycare during the day, which gives me plenty of time to focus on caring for pets, including walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and keeping them comfortable and happy throughout the day. I always make sure pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m patient, responsible, and understand that every pet has different needs and personalities. My goal is to make pets feel secure, loved, and stress-free while in my care.
About: I have always had multiple cats and dogs growing up, I have experience since 8 years old, bottle feeding, fostering, and caring for senior pets. I currently have 10 rescue animals of my own: 2 dogs, 5 cats, 2 bunnies, and 1 large turtle who lives in an in-ground pond I built in our backyard. I truly love helping care for animals and will treat your babies just like my own! I have a super flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Long walks, fetch out back, or a cuddle inside—I’ll make sure they’re well cared for and comfortable before I leave. I am always extremely cautious entering and exiting homes, so no worries about escape artists! I never bother an animal who doesn’t want affection and will be as patient as necessary to build a bond. I do my best to match the energy of your pet to keep them as comfortable as possible.

“Vanessa is amazing! Both my dogs absolutely love her and she is so responsive and caring with them. After their 1st daycare day with her the next day we started driving into the neighborhood and they got so excited because they knew they were going to see her. I’ll refer her to anyone who needs a dog sitter/walker.”
About: I have worked in a vet clinic setting that has allowed me to work with different types of animals of all ages. I have works from little dogs to big dogs to little cats to big cats. I always treat the animals like they’re one of us and make sure they are comfortable and happy. I always make time for my animals no matter the time I always work around and make sure everyone is happy. I’m open to work around my schedule in their schedule. The care that I give all animals does not change. I care for them all equally making sure they are all comfortable and they feel safe in their home either if it’s in my place or theirs.
About: I have had a dog myself since I was 10 and a cat since 15. Both were majority my responsibility. I have also pet sat for many friends and family with a multitude of different sized pets. Hi! I’m in town temporarily doing clinical placements and using Rover to help keep my bank account alive 😅 I’m reliable, easygoing, and take pride in doing a good job. Happy to help out while I’m here! I love all animals :) I can easily walk dogs, play with any animal, give them lots of love and pets, and provide great care for your babies. I will remain in constant contact with you and do everything the way you ask! I understand the importance of taking care of the fur babies , I’m here for what you need!
About: I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life and shared responsibility for taking care of them with my siblings. I now have my own fuzzball - Miso (Brown tabby cat). I also frequently watch my close friends, neighbors, and family's pets while they’re out of town or just need a little 'me' time away from their energetic gremlins - always being sure to give them lots of love while their person is away. I have helped my closest friend train her Husky/German Shepard mix puppy do simple commands like: sit, stay, paw and most importantly potty training. I do have experience with younger animals so I can help out with training and I of course have loads of patience, experience, and love to care for senior pets too! I have always loved being around animals, they’re such pure creatures that we are soo undeserving of a lot of times! Feel free to shoot me a message to discuss times and availability. Weekends I am typically completely free unless marked on my Rover Calendar! :)) I currently WFH so can be very flexible. I can work on the road, or simply bring my work with me where ever I go. Just looking to pick back up some side jigs - mostly ones I find joy in, and this is definitely a big one on my list! I have an apartment that is near a small dog park and other parks in the area as well. I have a younger cat that is still adjusting to dogs but doesn't mind keeping to herself on her kitty castle (cat tower/tree) or in a separate room.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter during my destination wedding! She took such amazing care of my dog, making sure she was always happy and entertained. She sent me constant photos and updates, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It was clear how much she cared for my dog, and I could tell they had so much fun together. I’m so grateful for her kindness and the love she showed my furry friend! Highly recommend!”
“Cristy is the best!! my little dog Mindy was very happy to stay with Cristy. I was especially pleased that Cristy sent me a couple of photos that showed how well Mindy was being cared for and loved. I am so thankful that I have become acquainted with the wonderful service that she provides. I know that at Mindy will be back as visitor.”
“Laurie was wonderful! Our pups had an absolute blast! She sent updates, videos and pictures throughout their stay. Reached out with questions and let us know any concerns. Will book with her again!”
“I am so thankful Sarah was able to watch my dog, Stella. She was incredibly knowledgeable and had a passion for pets. She sent many pictures and updates, which kept my mind at ease while I was away for 3 nights. Stella was in great hands and I would absolutely ask Sarah to watch her again!”
“My puppy absolutely enjoyed her boarding, she cried on her way home when I picked her up. Susan and her kids took great care of my puppy. She sent pictures and updates multiple times daily. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“Candace and Larry were absolutely wonderful with my lab! They communicated well with me and were extremely professional. I felt comfortable leaving him with them and would recommend them to everyone! He had a great time, too!”
“This is our second time leaving our two dogs with Sam, and I can honestly say it’s such a relief to find someone I trust to care for them when I have to go out of town. We usually try to bring them with us, but sometimes that isn’t possible, and it eases a lot of stress knowing we have someone we trust to take care of them like Sam does. We will continue to book with her in the future. Our dogs are always at ease when they’re with her, and I can tell that she takes great care of them as if they were her own.”
“So thankful for Christina and Oskar! They took great care of my baby Charley, gave us updates and sent pictures of how he was doing. They are very organized and detailed, making sure Charley had everything he needed and worked with him during his pickiness in eating.”
“I can’t recommend her highly enough! She took wonderful care of my baby (my fur-child ❤️) and went way above and beyond what I expected. From day one, she sent me adorable pictures multiple times a day so I never felt out of the loop. She kept me updated. It truly gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pet came back happy, healthy, and clearly very loved. She’s the best I’ve ever used—hands down. I will 100% be booking her again and recommending her to everyone I know! Thank you so much for being amazing! 🌟🐾”
“Douglania was a great host! I can tell Leo had a fun time, definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a person to care for your pooch. I would give her 10 stars if I could ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: Hi, I am Tammy… I recently lost our beloved Great Dane, Blue after 7 wonderful years together. While our home feels a little too quiet right now, our love for animals hasn’t changed. I am opening our hearts and home on Rover to give other pets the same dedicated, high-quality care, comfort, and affection we gave our own. I have long backgrounds (30+ years) of dog ownership. I have attended many training courses (e.g., Sit Means Sit) and have full comprehension for the theory and application of training principles. I live in a child-free and pet-free home - your dog would would be my sole guest. My home is completely tiled on the first floor and accident proof. My home is fully dog-proofed for safety, quiet, and secure. My backyard is ample and unfenced, so we would provide regular, leashed access outside for potty breaks and walks as desired/appropriate. Dogs can expect to spend most time inside in the air-conditioning with access to the outdoors as needed/desired. I are not a farm, etc., where your pet would be primarily outside. I live in a wonderful, quiet, gated community. Several of my previous pets had special needs, requirements, etc., so I fully understand how critical those needs are. Whether your pup is an energetic fetch enthusiast, a senior dog who prefers slow strolls and cozy naps, or a dog with food allergies or specific dietary concerns, we follow your routine to the letter—including strict feeding and medication schedules. I would love to meet you and your fur baby! Feel free to reach out to schedule a Meet & Greet so I can ensure we’re the perfect fit for your dog's needs. I am available for long weekends only at this point - Friday through Sunday. If needed drop off also available Thursday evenings after 7pm. Pet care during this time would be my 100% focus. We have a large 2-story home in a safe, quiet, gated community. Our previous dog (Blue, the Great Dane) had severe allergies and strict dietary restrictions, so our home is dog-proofed, our yard is well-manicured to minimize allergens tracked inside, and the entire first floor is tiled in case of accidents. We are child and pet free - your pet would be our sole guest and 100% focus.
“My dog had a great time with Karla and Victor! They provided pictures and reports from his stay, and he enjoyed the walks and backyard time. Enjoyed our vacation knowing he was enjoying himself too. :)”
“Brett and his girls did an amazing job taking care of my dog. Brett sent photos throughout the stay and I felt confident that she was in great hands and being taken care of like she was there own. I will definitely be asking them again in the future.”
“Andrea was so amazing. Not only did she make me feel at home when I brought my pupper over, she also fully described to me what the visit would be like and where Maizie would be. She sent me photos every day and her pups were so friendly with my girl. As an anxiously attached pet parent, Andrea made it so I could relax on my trip and knew Maizie would be okay. Thank you so much, 10/10 will be booking again”
“Luke was great with my dog Oscar and I received nice photos and a video of Oscar during this overnight stay. I knew Oscar was in good hands with Luke watching him. If I’m in the north Orlando area again for work I would definitely have Luke watch Oscar again if he’s available. Thank you Luke!”
“So thankful for Catie and the kind and patient way she cares for our little furbabies. Our babies love her! And we have peace of mind knowing they’re happy and safe.”
