“So kind and a great communicator. Thank you for caring for Bonnie Bella with love. We look forward to seeing you in the future as our entrusted partner when my family and I are away.”

“Lillian was absolutely AMAZING!!! My dog was with her 5 days and could not have been happier. Daily pictures sent once or twice a day, her house did not smell like dog, and het back yard was perfect for Baxter. I picked up a very happy, healthy and cery clean dog…she even gave him a bath. Shes the best!!”


“Cristy was so lovely and took amazing care of my senior pug! She was very welcoming and flexible to my scheduling adjustments, and sent the perfect amount of photo/video updates on my boy while I was away. He normally takes a minute to adjust to a new location, but he was totally fine and trusting with Cristy. She also has the sweetest little dog, and her cat is very calm and personable!”
“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!”


“Laurie fit us in at the last minute and was wonderful. She communicates quickly, confirms times, and was willing to accommodate us. Lainey (0ur dog) is a social dog who loves being outside. With Laurie’s pack, she was happy. She came home and slept all day! Would definitely use again.”

“Sam and her family have been absolutely amazing with our dog. I cannot recommend her enough. We travel quite often and finding her has been such a huge relief knowing our baby is so well cared for. Another very positive thing is that there is always an open line of communication and updates throughout his stay with her.”

“Susana was great to work with. She was so sweet to our puppy. I felt very comfortable with her watching him for a week. She sent daily pictures and videos. We will definitely be using her again! Overall a wonderful experience!”

“Susann and her family took wonderful care of Gracie. She sent pictures of their adventures - including a 3 mile hike on a trail. Gracie slept quite a bit on the day I picked her up, so I know she had lots of fun and attention while at Susann's house.”

“Treasure has watched my dog, Trip several times and is great with him. Communication is easy and she always sends lots of updates and puts me at ease. Highly recommend!”

“Caroline and her family were very kind and patient with our husky, with it being her first time staying with someone else. She kept us updated on how our pup was doing with plenty of pictures. Definitely couldn’t recommend her more!!”
“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.”

“An amazing family to leave my furbabies with! They were attentive and welcoming to my boys, great pics and fun walks with them. Can’t thank them enough for the love and care.”

“MJ was amazing watching my pup, the photos proved she felt comfortable in her home, even playing with her doggies! Will definitely be contacting her for future sitting, and so should you!”

“Luke took care of our two little doggos and also my in-law’s dog. Though there was some complexity with drop off due to the home being in a gated community, Luke kept in touch and was quite flexible about adapting to changes in our schedule. We were traveling for a funeral and his kindness and accommodations were very much appreciated. The doggos came home happy and clearly well cared for.”

“Chopper had a great time with Sasha. He got to make a new friend which made his time so fun! This was Chopper’s first long stay away from home and I felt extremely confident that he was in good hands.”

“Juan provided services for us for our nearly 1 month vacation overseas. We needed someone reliable, caring and attentive, Juan fit that hat perfectly. Thanks to Juan and his superb dog boarding we could be practically a world away and still get regular updates/pictures. He also took care of our newest addition to our family, our puppy Chewie who was not even 6months old and provided him loving care while also giving him structure to learn and grow. Thanks again we will be using Juan in the future.”

“Joanna is great. It was such a relief knowing our dog was in safe, loving, and attentive hands while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her service!”

“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.”


“Brianna was wonderful. Felix felt super comfortable with her and that’s a huge thing for a cat and for us as parents. Everything we asked was taken care of by Brianna!”

“I can’t recommend Sarah enough.. we have 2 kitty’s that are not easy to deal with. But Sarah took care of our cats in our home while we were away and gave me reassurance with each visit that everything was OK so that I could actually enjoy our mini vacation. My husband and I have never used a service license before and was very hesitant. She made us at ease and gave us the peace of mind that we could actually enjoy our time away and not worry about anything at home”


“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.”


“Summer did a great job taking care of our two cats while we were gone. She was very responsive and made sure to send pictures showing all she had done. Definitely will book again!”

“We always feel completely at ease knowing our cat is in such good hands while we’re away. Sabrina gives her lots of love and attention, and it’s clear she truly cares. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she brings!”


“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.”

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.

“Joy took exceptionally good care of our 2 cats for nearly a week while we were out of town. She won over our very shy kitty with consistent kindness and her favorite treats. She didn't just feed and clean their litter boxes, she interacted with them, and kept them company. I will definitely call on her for our next out of town trip!”


“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!”

“I had to travel out of state for a week. Douglania dropped in at my house every evening as I had asked, to feed my cat Clove, change out her drinking water, clean her litter box and to play with Clove as well. While I was away I received many photos, videos and updates every day of Clove and I could tell Clove was very happy. It gave me peace of mind to know that Clove would be checked on every day and given some love. Douglania took great care of my cat Clove and I would for sure use her services again in future.”

“First time, but it definitely won’t be our last! So glad that I could find somebody trustworthy and reliable to watch my Angel when we are out of town. I received so many pictures and updates and felt safe and relieved the whole time I was away. For reference, I have 105 pound great dane and and she had so much fun!”

“Douglania is an exceptional professional. Having used pet resort/daycare facilities, I MUCH more prefer the direct care of someone I can do a meet and greet with, someone I can feel out and know that person will have my 2 pups under direct care while our family is away. Every appointment with Douglania, we have not been disappointed! We will continue to use and recommend her to all of our friends. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups!”

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.
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.

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.

“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!”

“Would definitely leave Meeko with Juan again, he sent videos throughout the day and was very accommodating to my schedule, also you cant beat the yard space that he’s got so that doggos can play freely 🙂”

“Our furry son Barrett had never been away from us until he stayed with Candace. We were a bit nervous, but things went great! Candace and Larry are wonderful people, and Larry is a great groomer. Barrett came home shiny and he smelled amazing! We highly recommend Candace and we will definitely be bringing our dog back in the near future.”

“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.”

“Don’t even know what to say except THANK YOU! First time using rover and interviewed others before meeting Kim. Once I met her and her pups, I knew Hudson would be in great hands.

About: Hi there! I’m Hailey — a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter based in Sanford, Florida. I’ve grown up with dogs of all kinds, from energetic Boxers and Labradors to gentle Shih Tzus, Golden Doodles, and even Pitbulls. I also have a sweet cat of my own who’s been part of my life for nine years, so I understand how much love and attention our pets need to feel safe and happy. I offer dog walking, pet sitting, house sitting, and drop-in visits, always prioritizing your pet’s comfort and routine. I prefer to care for pets in their own home so they can stay relaxed in a familiar environment. I’m also experienced in administering medications: topical, oral, and even injectable. You can count on me to make sure your pet’s health needs are handled with care. While you’re away, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own: watering plants, cleaning floors, doing light laundry, and keeping everything neat and cozy for your return. You can count on me for reliable communication, regular photo updates, and genuine love for your furry family members. I’d love to meet you and your pets soon! 🐾 I am not currently working. I do drop in visits 4 times a day or I am able to spend the night with the pups. When I usually stay at the owners house I will have them write out instructions on how they want their animal taken care of and I will do just that as well as send pictures to make the owner feel more comfortable.

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 :)
“Here's a revised version of your review with some enhancements for clarity and flow: --- Sasha was wonderful! I was initially nervous about leaving my dog with someone unfamiliar, but as soon as Sasha met him, she showered him with love, and he was very happy. He didn’t even notice when I left! I felt a huge relief knowing he was in good hands. Sasha was incredibly kind and even sent me pictures, which made me even happier. I would absolutely choose Sasha to care for my dog again.”

“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.”

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. Unable to stay overnight. I am available from 7:00am - 11:00pm daily.

“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: I have experience with dogs of all ages from puppies to seniors, and I can even administer medications, if needed. To me this won't just be another job or a check-in, I want to get to know your dog, cuddle them, and have playtime with them for enrichment. Puppies each have their own personalities and I have taken care of pups with challenging and sassy personalities, including my own 6 month old coonhound who is super independent. I can train puppies, so if you are working long hours and need help with potty training, crate training, or mastering basic commands such as sit, I would love to help you with that while I'm there! My schedule is currently open for the entire summer, Monday through Sunday. If I am needed early morning hours or late evening hours, I am also open to discussing this. During in-home check-ins for dogs, only with your approval, I will give your pup treats for training purposes. Typically I will use single pieces of your dog's kibble to motivate them in learning commands. When it comes to cats, if you are hiring me to take care of your cat while you are gone for work or a trip, I will treat them as an indoor-only cat, no exceptions.

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 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

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

Most days and nights, I am available to board several animals. I am very flexible and receptive to your pets’ individual needs, and can accommodate most requests (bathroom break at a certain time, feeding schedule, med schedule, etc.) Please let me know if there is a special request and I will do my best to honor it. Your pet will be cared for like my own Mr. Winston! I treat pets like family members. I am a loving caregiver, as evidenced by my own care of my dog, Winston. Your animal will be cared for as if they were mine. If anything, they may even be spoiled a little during their stay!

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 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.

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.

“So kind and a great communicator. Thank you for caring for Bonnie Bella with love. We look forward to seeing you in the future as our entrusted partner when my family and I are away.”

“Lillian was absolutely AMAZING!!! My dog was with her 5 days and could not have been happier. Daily pictures sent once or twice a day, her house did not smell like dog, and het back yard was perfect for Baxter. I picked up a very happy, healthy and cery clean dog…she even gave him a bath. Shes the best!!”


“Cristy was so lovely and took amazing care of my senior pug! She was very welcoming and flexible to my scheduling adjustments, and sent the perfect amount of photo/video updates on my boy while I was away. He normally takes a minute to adjust to a new location, but he was totally fine and trusting with Cristy. She also has the sweetest little dog, and her cat is very calm and personable!”
“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!”


“Laurie fit us in at the last minute and was wonderful. She communicates quickly, confirms times, and was willing to accommodate us. Lainey (0ur dog) is a social dog who loves being outside. With Laurie’s pack, she was happy. She came home and slept all day! Would definitely use again.”

“Sam and her family have been absolutely amazing with our dog. I cannot recommend her enough. We travel quite often and finding her has been such a huge relief knowing our baby is so well cared for. Another very positive thing is that there is always an open line of communication and updates throughout his stay with her.”

“Susann and her family took wonderful care of Gracie. She sent pictures of their adventures - including a 3 mile hike on a trail. Gracie slept quite a bit on the day I picked her up, so I know she had lots of fun and attention while at Susann's house.”

“Treasure has watched my dog, Trip several times and is great with him. Communication is easy and she always sends lots of updates and puts me at ease. Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“Luke took care of our two little doggos and also my in-law’s dog. Though there was some complexity with drop off due to the home being in a gated community, Luke kept in touch and was quite flexible about adapting to changes in our schedule. We were traveling for a funeral and his kindness and accommodations were very much appreciated. The doggos came home happy and clearly well cared for.”

“Leslie and James are amazing! They took great care of our dogs and sent pictures of all the fun they were having. I will definitely be using them again for any dog sitting needs!”

“Catherine was awesome! She was very communicative, sent plenty of photos and videos, and definitely spoiled my babies! She was a positive energy from beginning to end! My babies loved staying with her and was able to get comfortable within the first night of staying.”

“Im always so happy leaving my dog with Douglania, shes been taking care of our dog everytime we leave town for over a year. We have been doing day care aswell with her and my dog really believes thats her second home. My dog is alway happy when we get to douglanias house and also when i pick her up. Thank youu for taking care of my baby Cora. :)”

“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.”
“Karla and Victor were so great with my goldendoodle Ace! They took such amazing care of him while I was away on a cruise. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in loving and responsible hands. They kept me updated with photos/messages and treated him like he was part of their own family. I would absolutely trust them with Ace again and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch your pet. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my boy!🐾”

“This was my first time booking with Jim. I had a great experience. Jim had a meet and greet before the stay which made me feel comfortable to meet him and see where Finley would be staying. Jim watched Finley for three nights and took great care of him. He was very responsive and sent photo updates. I'll be booking with Jim again and would highly recommend him.”

“Andrea took amazing care of mars! She sent over tons of photos and was very flexible with my schedule. Mars felt very at home by the time I came to pick him up :) definitely planning on requesting Andrea in the future!”
