Anas and Tate are the best! They took great care of Kaine and Lyuba like their own. We appreciate the cute pictures and videos to keep us posted. There's nothing like confidence and assurance that your dogs are safe, comfortable and loved when you're away from them and that's what Anas and Tate gave us. So thank you so very much. We truly appreciate you.

Jamie and Kyle were the best dog sitters we have ever used! They loved our dogs like they were their own. I can’t say enough good things about them and I could tell my dogs were comfortable staying there when I went to pick them up. I will 100% use them again and would recommend them to anyone!!

About: (¡Español es mi primer idioma, por si se te hace más cómodo/fácil hablarme en español!) • SATURDAYS ARE FOR FREE!! As a seventh-day adventist I observe the Sabbath, so I do not charge for Saturdays. However, I challenge you to use that money to help someone in need!🙏🏻 Drop off by Friday night: 100% off Drop off on Saturday 7am-11am: 50% off Drop off on Saturday 12pm-5pm: 25% off • There is an extra $5 charge for high energy dogs (meaning dogs that require constant/frequent attention, supervision and/or stimulation). Right now I'm preparing myself for a professional certification so I'd rather not be constantly interrupted and this is the condition I can provide to help you out. • 8 nights or more are $23/night (first adult dog) • 1 dog + 1 cat $30/night • $17/day (first dog) for 3 days or more of weekly daycare. Daycare is closed on Saturdays. • I encourage last-minute bookings! If your pet is socialized there shouldn't be any problem. In any case we'll talk about the details and I'll see if I can help you out💪🏻 • Important! Please, let me know of your pet's misbehaviors before booking. I'd really appreciate your honesty, especially if it's a last-minute booking. • Both my apartment and the surrounding neighborhood are very quiet and peaceful. There's a lot of green areas AND a small dog park where they can walk (or run) freely! • Your pet will be part of the family while they're here! They'll receive frequent attention and love if they need it or simple constant caring company if they just want that. • Cats are more than welcome! We love cats too—especially my mom. And don't worry about my dog; he has been surrounded by cats since birth, so he simply ignores them. I occasionally need sitters myself so I know how hard it is to find one that's not painfully expensive AND that you're comfortable with. That's why I want to provide the experience I'd love to receive myself: an affordable care for your pets IN COMBINATION with the most approachable and relaxed atmosphere for you as possible, ESPECIALLY if you're going away for weeks and if you have multiple pets! Let's face it. You're only looking for someone who'd simply be there and take care of them because there's no other option. You'd do it yourself if you could! So shouldn't you find sitters that make you (and your wallet!) feel at peace with leaving your loving companion behind? That's why I'm here to help! A pet parent for pet parents =) I am at home every day, all day long—except when I go out for groceries, which takes no more than two hours. Aside from that, I stay present and keep myself busy in the apartment. I cook, exercise, read, and am currently also studying for a professional certification. I don't have any visitors, nor do I go out for anything else. I moved in a few months ago. Here there's only my dog Mylo, my mother and me. • All of your pet's physical and emotional needs will be met—that is my absolute priority, including their absolute safety. • Regarding male and/or bigger dogs, since my dog is a bit picky at first with some of them, it may be necessary a 5-10 minute 'Parallel Walk' at the meet & greet. We'll just walk around the pond in front of the apartment 1 or 2 times. It’s the safest way to make sure both dogs are 100% comfortable before they share a home. Only then we'll know if I can accept your doggie. • Hey, we all want this to work out but if the dogs don't like it, well....that's why we do the meet and greet: to know if the choice fits everyone involved and choose accordingly🙏🏻 • I would NEVER intentionally harm an animal. I'd never lay even a finger on pets (to discipline them) that do not belong to me. • I never give human food to pets. Occasionally, I share certain fruits with my own dog (specifically those that are safe and non-toxic for them) or, occasionally, a boiled egg; aside from that, nothing else. BUT, your pet will strictly follow the diet you specify. • I clean the bowl and pour fresh filtered water daily. • I have set my account available to no more than 2 pets at a time; however, if you wish to ensure that your pet is the *only* one in my care (other than Mylo I mean) during their stay (for your own peace of mind), I can arrange it for a small additional fee. It is worth noting that, regardless of the number of pets present, I guarantee that I can manage their interactions appropriately, as I am always at home. • If the pet has socialization issues to the point I'm not able to serve other pet parents, that might incur in additional fees. • I operate with complete transparency, and my mission here is to serve you—to be your assistant and EXACTLY the help you're looking for right now. I'll provide as regular communication as you need and pictures of your blessing daily. My goal is your peace of mind and their comfort! • I encourage you to ask me whatever else you need to know!

Michelle is the best! We are incredibly particular about who we entrust with taking care of our precious fur baby, and we felt confident and safe with Michelle from the get-go. She was very proactive about learning our dog’s habits, schedule, and temperament so that she could ensure to make things as comfortable for her as possible, while also providing a fun vacation. We loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay, and our dog seemed very happy. Would definitely board with Michelle again, and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

About: I have been in and out of the animal industry for a few years now. I have worked in a doggy day care, a humane society, a vet’s office and a dog training facility. My animals are my babies and I will treat yours just the same. Pet care is just so natural to my daily life. My pets are all I have so anytime I’m not working, my time is spent with my babies. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly great dane who loves to just run around and be silly. I free feed my girls, but have my dog on a feed schedule.

About: I've grown up around animals my whole life. For most of my life I had a minx cat named Milo that I rescued as a baby from under an abandoned home who was a real life Garfield and just the most chonky loving boy ever. After he left us a stray (Oliver) wandered into our home as I began college and made himself welcome in our home keeping my mom company and knowing we needed the support, he decided to keep going on his journey to explore after a couple years but we have always remembered our two boys. Ive looked after plenty of my family cats from Siamese breeds to ragdolls. Some of my sons and I’s favorite activities is to visit the cats at Petco and show them love. I guess what sets me apart is my respect and fascination at getting to know each cats personality. From chunky, cuddly, food stealing Garfields like Milo to curious, green eyed, alley cats who act as if they understand what you are saying like Oliver, i believe each cat is unique and special.

About: Growing up, not only did we always have the typical "house dog'', but my father also raised beagle dogs as a hobby. At any one time we might have as many as 15 dogs at the house. And I loved every second of it. I'm 37 now, and my passion and love for animals have stayed the same. I have a lot of experience caring for older dogs and am very comfortable working with younger pups as well. We believe in play, healthy eating, and a lot of love and attention. I have two part-time jobs, one of which allows me to work from home. Otherwise, I am only away from the house from 1 PM to 4 PM Monday through Friday. I have a .5-acre fenced-in backyard/sideyard in the middle of Gainesville. It's truly a special place for a pup as we have a small pond, as well as plenty of toys and balls to play with. We can feed the dogs either once or twice daily depending on your preference. Fresh water is changed daily. Depending on the weather, should it cooperate, we will spend time in the morning outside and then, once again in the evening. Should the temperature get too high (let's be honest, it's going to be hot!) then I will move the dogs inside the 350 sq ft Florida room to stay cool. They're welcome to free roam in this area as it is a dog-safe area when I am not in the house, otherwise, they will have more access to the rest of the house. If your dog requires medication or special treatments of any kind, I am happy to oblige, so long as I can receive detailed instructions on said procedures. *I do have a dog of my own, Luna, who is a 6-year-old Golden Doodle. I also have 2 children, aged 6 and 9 who will be staying with me every other week. My dog and children all love other animals, but please feel free to notify me if you're concerned about this in any way. **Luna is up to date on all of her shots and is regularly treated for heartworms and fleas/ticks.

I have had issues with my schedule on a few occasions as of late, and she has been flexible and so helpful when I've had to make adjustments. We miss her when she is out of town!

About: ☀️ Summer Safety Advisory ☀️ Due to Florida’s extreme heat and humidity, dogs are at serious risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke in as little as 10–15 minutes of exertion during peak sun hours. Because of this, all walks during late spring through early fall may be shortened or adjusted for safety and replaced with enrichment-based activities, shaded sniff time, or indoor play when appropriate. Your dog’s health and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I provide thoughtful, enrichment-focused care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is not just to “get through” a visit, but to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a background in wildlife sanctuary rehabilitation and have served as an adoptions director, which means I’ve worked hands-on with animals of all temperaments, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications ( just not injections), managing multi-pet households, and supporting shy, anxious, senior, or special-needs pets. My approach to pet care is informed by ongoing education in dog behavior, body language, and force-free, reward-based training. I pay close attention to stress signals, pacing, and environment, and I adjust each visit accordingly. Whether your dog needs structured activity, calm companionship, or space to decompress, I aim to meet them where they are. 🦴 Bonus Enrichment Option I also manage one of Gainesville’s top-rated private Sniffspots, The Zoomie Zone, located in Midtown. This fully private, reservation-only yard is ideal for dogs who benefit from off-leash play without the pressure of public dog parks. Many clients choose to incorporate Sniffspot visits into walks or drop-ins as a way to provide safe zoomies, sniff-based enrichment, or low-distraction decompression time. If you’re interested in adding a Sniffspot visit to your booking, feel free to ask. Returning clients can also receive discount codes for independent bookings. Whether we’re heading out for a structured walk, enjoying shaded sniff time, or keeping things low-key indoors, I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care you can trust. 🗓️ Schedule and Booking Process To make sure every booking is safe, smooth, and a good fit, I require a free 15 minute meet and greet for all new clients. This takes place at the location where care will happen and helps ensure your pet’s comfort, safety, and compatibility with my services. -Exceptions Cats and puppies under 5 months do not require a meet and greet -Returning clients can fast track bookings Please schedule your meet and greet at least 72 hours before your first requested booking so we have time to coordinate properly. After your initial meet and greet, you are all set for future bookings. If you move to a new home or apartment, you are welcome to schedule another meet and greet so I can learn the new setup. 🚶‍♀️ Dog Walks and Drop Ins I batch dog walks and cat drop in visits into efficient routes using flexible time windows. This allows me to reduce travel time while still providing thoughtful, attentive care. Dog care windows Standard visits typically occur between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM Morning visits may begin as early as 8:00 AM Evening visits are available for dogs who need extra flexibility Cat care Preferred visit window is 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM If medications or strict timing are required, I adjust visits to meet those needs Dogs are typically prioritized earlier in the day due to restroom needs, but all pets receive the same level of care and attention. 🐾 Premium Boarding Boarding is a high end, in home service designed for clients who want a fully hands off experience. At this time, boarding is available only to dogs who already have an established walk or drop in routine with me. This helps ensure your dog is comfortable with my home, routine, and resident pets. While boarding with me, your dog will -Live in home as part of the household -Be the only boarding guest, receiving one on one attention -Receive daily enrichment and engagement -Enjoy supervised access to my private Sniffspot for play, sniffing, and decompression -Enrichment may include -Food puzzles such as West Paw Toppl meals -Nature walks or hikes in San Felasco, weather permitting -Field trips to quiet recreational fields when no other animals are present -Most dogs return home happy, fulfilled, and ready to nap. 🚨 Behavior Expectations and Safety The safety of my personal pets is a top priority. Dogs boarding with me must be comfortable around cats and respectful toward my personal dog. If a dog shows aggression toward any resident pets, boarding may be ended immediately. In these cases, care will be converted to drop in visits at your home for feeding, potty breaks, and companionship. 🚗 Premium Pick Up and Drop Off For added convenience, I offer a luxury pet transport add on. I can personally pick up and drop off your dog along my daily walking route No handoffs needed, simply leave your dog at home This service is priced to reflect the time, travel, and personalized care involved ⛔ Important Booking Policies -One free meet and greet is included for new clients -Additional meet ups should be booked as a walk or drop in to cover time and travel -All pets must be listed on your Rover profile prior to booking -You have 48 hours after the meet and greet to confirm your booking before the time slot may be released -House Sitting and Drop In services follow a 7 day cancellation policy If you have questions or special circumstances, I’m always happy to talk things through. In my home, pets and plants are family, and every animal in my care is treated with the same level of respect and attention. I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. Some thrive on companionship, others prefer play, structure, or quiet encouragement. My goal is to be a steady, calm presence your pet can rely on while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or hosting them for a field trip at The Zoomie Zone, I focus on creating a safe, enriching, and low stress environment that supports both physical and emotional wellbeing. During each visit, you’ll receive a detailed update through the Rover Card, including notes on meals, potty breaks, mood, and anything noteworthy from our time together. Occasionally, if your pet gives me a particularly great moment, I may also send a favorite edited photo directly. Unless something truly needs your attention, I won’t interrupt your vacation, work trip, or conference. I aim to be both your pet’s advocate and your peace of mind while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority for both your pet and myself. If a pet displays aggression, severe anxiety, or behavior that creates an unsafe situation, I will still ensure their basic needs are met, including food, water, and potty breaks. However, I may shorten a visit to avoid escalating stress. This policy is in place out of care and caution for everyone involved. 🛏️ Crate and Confinement Requirement for Boarding For boarding stays, dogs must be comfortable with crate use or confinement behind a baby gate or similar barrier. This is a non-negotiable requirement. At night and during times when dogs are not being actively supervised, boarding dogs are safely confined. This allows my personal pets appropriate rest and space, and ensures all dogs remain safe when I am asleep or briefly out of the house. Crates or gated areas are used as calm, neutral spaces rather than punishment. If your dog typically uses a crate, pen, or gated area at home, please let me know their routine so I can keep things as familiar and low stress as possible. If a dog is not currently comfortable with any form of safe confinement, boarding may not be the right fit at this time. I’m always happy to discuss alternatives or help determine whether a gradual transition would be appropriate.

About: I had dogs all growing up. I’ve helped pet sit for friends where I walked, fed and spent time with their animals and always enjoyed the experience. I’m not working right now so I have full availability and access to my schedule. My time and hours are flexible. I have plenty of time and energy to pet sit. I live in an apartment that is pet friendly and can take as many walks as needed and offer a lot of time spent at home with your pet.

About: I’ve been a dog-mom for the past 14 years. Recently, our dog crossed over the rainbow bridge and we want to love on some dogs the way our dog was loved. We have cared for puppies and senior dogs alike for many years. We are active and enjoy exercising and playing outside with dogs or just relaxing at home, depending on your pet’s needs. Both online teachers, we are organized and routine-oriented, and offer flexibility with scheduling. We currently do not have children or other animals in our home.

We hope you’ll choose us for your dog-sitting needs! Working from home, we have flexible schedules for pick-up and drop-off. We are able to spend lots of quality time with your pup!

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, recently lost my first dog I owned on my own due to sickness. Work from home 3 days a week and home on weekends. I’m an active sitter who believes dogs thrive with frequent walks, playtime, and structure, not just being let outside. Whether your dog loves long walks, backyard zoomies, or relaxed companionship, I tailor care to their energy level and routine. I currently WFH 3 days a week and in office 2 days a week. Home on weekends, with an almost 2 year old human (attends daycare during week). I go on frequent walks or runs, spend plenty of time outside. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run or relax. I can easily crate your fur bay if needed. Love cuddles and company if they are the cuddly type.

Although Puddin is 7 years old, this was her first time ever of being cared for in someone else’s home. We have always before had a house sitter in our absence. Nina went above and beyond expectations, picking up Puddin at my office once…and keeping her very late twice when I had after-work meetings. Her communication was excellent and Puddin was happy to see her each time. This was a good experience and I am grateful for how flexible and gracious Nina was for what was needed to make Puddin feel secure and my wife and I feel confident in Puddin’s care during a week when my wife needed to be away at a conference. Thank you, Nina!

Today is the first day on our own again and we already miss Courtney. What a gift it was to find her! It was so cute to see her talk to Lucy all the way when walking, to pick her up or redirect her when she was being stubborn-Courtney displayed genuine concern and affection for my Lucy and myself during the four weeks she was employed. She is absolutely the first person I will call if I need help with Lucy again. I have no questioning about courtney’s ability to care for animals or her character. She is such a sweet soul and is welcome to remain our friend forever!! 🐾💕 THANK YOU

The nice lady came over with treats and took us outside. It was raining. We didn’t get to play in the mud. When we came back inside she dried us off. It was like a massage. Then the nice lady played with us and our toys. She took all these pictures of us for our moms to see. We know our moms are so happy we are well taken care of. Thanks for playing with us.~ Kya and Karat

Brooke was great with our Labrador, Wimby, and she did an outstanding job. Wimby isn’t the easiest dog to walk—he’s strong, full of energy, and can be a handful—but Brooke handled him with total confidence and care. She was always on time, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. We really appreciated her professionalism and how quickly she built trust with Wimby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and skilled dog walker!

About: I have had a dog since I was a kid and taken care of friends' dogs too. I love animals and will make your dog my own. I am not doing this to make money (that is why my prices are lower than most) but to teach my daughter responsibility. She loves dogs and all the money is going to her as she is my little assistant. I currently work full-time, but will take your dog on long walks (if desired) and give your little boy/girl lots of love and attention. If needed, I can come home during the day to let your dog out. I have a fenced in yard and a walking trail by my house. Also, lots of room and a kid to take care of and love your pup.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, including Great Danes, Huskies, German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and Blue Heelers. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Over the years, friends and coworkers have trusted me to help care for their pups, whether that means walking, bathing, providing a safe and fun place to spend the day, or simply giving them the attention and exercise they need. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I also have experience with essential training and care routines, including potty training, basic obedience, and crate training. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure each pup feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Whether your dog needs a reliable walker, a playful companion, or a calm and structured environment, I’m here to help! I work from home and create my own schedule, which gives me a great deal of flexibility and reliability when it comes to caring for your fur babies. My availability is generally very open, and I’m always happy to stay in full communication—providing updates, answering questions, or checking in whenever you need. I do have two kids who are active in sports, so there may occasionally be a soccer game on the weekend or a practice during the week. That said, I plan my schedule carefully to ensure the pets in my care always receive the attention and consistency they deserve. If you happen to see limited availability on certain dates, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly. I’m often able to adjust my schedule or make accommodations to help meet your needs! Your pup will feel right at home here! We have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, as well as kennels/crates available if needed to match your dog’s routine and comfort level. We also have two playful and friendly dogs who are great with both kids and other pups. They love making new friends, whether that means running around the yard, playing together, or relaxing inside. (And yes—zoomies around the house do happen from time to time!) Of course, any interaction with our dogs is always based on your comfort level and your pet’s needs. Our home is a loving, relaxed environment where dogs are treated like family. They’re welcome to snuggle on the couch, get plenty of exercise, and enjoy a consistent routine. Feedings are typically twice a day, with the occasional well-earned treat. While your pet is in my care, I’ll stay in close communication with you—sharing updates, photos, and reassurance so you always know your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Hello! I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old and have lots of experience taking care of both family and friends’ pets. I also have experience with cats! While I’m saving up to adopt a dog of my own, I’d love to give your pet lots of love, care, and comfort! I’m currently a graduate student with a part-time job, so my schedule varies during the week. Most days I’m home for at least a portion of the day, but occasionally I may be out for longer. My Saturdays are always free! I always make sure pets are well taken care of and will be upfront with my availability to ensure I’m the right fit for your pet’s needs. My boyfriend, who I live with, is available to help if needed - he also has lots of pet experience! I live in a townhouse without a fenced yard, but I have plenty of space to walk dogs in a safe area. Given supplies, I’ll make sure pets are fed, walked, played with, and given lots of love!

Anas and Tate are the best! They took great care of Kaine and Lyuba like their own. We appreciate the cute pictures and videos to keep us posted. There's nothing like confidence and assurance that your dogs are safe, comfortable and loved when you're away from them and that's what Anas and Tate gave us. So thank you so very much. We truly appreciate you.

Jamie and Kyle were the best dog sitters we have ever used! They loved our dogs like they were their own. I can’t say enough good things about them and I could tell my dogs were comfortable staying there when I went to pick them up. I will 100% use them again and would recommend them to anyone!!

Michelle is the best! We are incredibly particular about who we entrust with taking care of our precious fur baby, and we felt confident and safe with Michelle from the get-go. She was very proactive about learning our dog’s habits, schedule, and temperament so that she could ensure to make things as comfortable for her as possible, while also providing a fun vacation. We loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay, and our dog seemed very happy. Would definitely board with Michelle again, and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

About: I have been in and out of the animal industry for a few years now. I have worked in a doggy day care, a humane society, a vet’s office and a dog training facility. My animals are my babies and I will treat yours just the same. Pet care is just so natural to my daily life. My pets are all I have so anytime I’m not working, my time is spent with my babies. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly great dane who loves to just run around and be silly. I free feed my girls, but have my dog on a feed schedule.

Vanessa accepted my last minute request and was very responsive. I was unsure if my dog would get along with other dogs, but she made me feel at ease and reassured me that it would be fine. She sent me a couple of pics and a video of him playing. I would definitely bring my dog back again.

Caitlynn is absolutely amazing! She was very responsive, kept me updated on Sage throughout my trip and sent pictures. didn’t have to worry if she was okay. This is my second booking on Rover. The first time was a nightmare, but I’m glad I gave it another shot. I will definitely be open to booking with Caitlynn again for sure.

Shalom did an amazing job watching my dog, Carti, while I was away for work. From the beginning, she was professional, communicative, and made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent regular updates and pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that he was having a great time. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Carti and treated him like one of her own. When I picked him up, he was happy, well cared for, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time with her. I would absolutely trust Shalom to watch Carti again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Shalom!

About: I not only grew up around dogs, but I’ve worked in animal shelters and a pet resort, where I was responsible for the needs of dogs and cats. I earned 44 hours of volunteer work at the Humane Society in St. Thomas, U.S.V.I., where I gave tours to potential dog owners. I worked at Pet Suites and LifeLine, where I ensured all pets received their food and/or medicine in a timely manner. I have fostered dogs for Angels Among Us and found homes for all of them. I also take an interest in dog training. I’m not a licensed trainer, but I enjoy teaching dogs manners and tricks. I’m currently working part-time, so I’m free all day on weekends. On Tuesday-Thursday, I work from 9am-5pm. Unfortunately, I don't have a car, but if your pet needs to go to a vet in an emergency, I'm able to bring them in an Uber or Lyft ride. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with other dog neighbors. There’s a lot of grass surrounding the complex. While at work, I prefer letting dogs roam unless they need to be in a crate.

Repeat customer! 😄 such a great family, everyone pitches in to care for the dogs. And they don’t take more than 2 dogs at a time which I love. I never have to worry about my boys when Stephanie has them. Thank you again!
