“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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”
“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Sarah took in my 3 dogs for 2 nights. I’m really grateful that she did. It’s difficult to get time away when you have 3 dogs at home. I’m glad that she can provide this service for us and the dogs had lots of playtime. Thanks, Sarah!”
“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!🐾❤️”

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 currently working a part time job my typical work week is only 1-2x per week about 6am-3:30pm. I am flexible on the price per day while I’m working If you have to hire somebody else to let the dog out midday. I am flexible on price depending on the tasks I have to complete before and after work. I have three dogs and a big backyard with a pool if your dog is friendly and likes to play with other dogs, I would love to bring them over to my house. 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.
“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!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“Lori and her daughter took care of our 15 year old cat and we were extremely impressed. They spent quality time giving Lola attention and went above and beyond. They communicated quickly and really put us at ease leaving our girl. We are really lucky that we found Lori!”
“Sarah was GREAT! She is very quick to respond, helped us adjust our visits, and took great care of our Rosie! She even helped trouble shoot our auto feeder. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been around cats my whole life and have cared for family cats for years, so I know every cat has their own personality and how wonderfully bougie they can be! Whether they want to play, cuddle, or simply have their space, I’m happy to care for them on their terms. I’ll make sure your cat gets the love, attention, and routine they’re used to, and I’ll treat them like one of my own while keeping you updated with photos and messages.
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.
“Thanks for dropping in and checking on my cat Clove. I’m sure she was happy for some fresh food, clean water, a clean litter box and for some playtime with you. Gave me the peace of mind. Thanks as always for the great service.”

“Caralin was absolutely excellent taking care of our pets while we were away on vacation. My girlfriend and I are overprotective pet parents and have trouble leaving our loved ones home while away; Caralin went over above and beyond with her care of them and truly impressed us with the care and love she showed to our pets. We would be happy to hire her again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to family and friends. If you’re like us and worry about your pets while away, you can trust Caralin to make sure they’re happy and taken care of.”

About: Caring and responsible animal lover with lifelong experience raising and caring for dogs and cats. Passionate about providing safe, loving, and reliable care for pets.

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: **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 :)
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.
“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!”
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.
“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’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for a wide range of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also worked in a dog kennel where I helped manage and care for 25+ dogs, which taught me how to stay calm, attentive, and handle different energy levels and personalities. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is playful, shy, high-energy, or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to follow their routine and give them the attention they need. I take pet care seriously and always aim to be dependable, communicative, and respectful of your home and your pet’s needs. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My daily routine is super pet-friendly—I do all my homework from home, so your pet will have company and attention throughout the day. I also work out in my garage, which means I’m never far away and can easily take breaks for playtime, walks, or cuddles. I’m homebody at heart, so your furry friend will always have someone around to keep them happy, safe, and loved. In my home, I treat pets like family—giving them a cozy, calm space where they feel safe and loved. I keep a consistent routine with plenty of playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles, and I always follow any special instructions you provide. When I’m in your home, I care for your pet the same way I would my own—respecting your space, keeping things tidy, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their feeding schedule, going on their favorite walking route, or giving belly rubs just the way they like them, I make sure they feel right at home.
“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!!”
“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.”
“Carmin was a superb Doggy Day Care host. I can see why she's booked all the time! Aside from the dogs enjoying themselves, she's a great communicator—always prompt in returning messages, and sending lots of photos, as well. We hope to see her again—if she has an open date!”

I’m experienced with walking, feeding, bathing, administering medication, and providing love and attention to animals of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’ve also helped with basic training and understand the unique needs of different breeds. Family, friends, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets as if they were my own.

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've always felt more comfortable with animals rather than people. I've worked with horses off and on for years. I like dogs more than most people. I feel comfortable around dogs that many people are afraid of. I take a cautious approach to dogs and let them get comfortable with me before petting them. I enjoy letting cats be themselves and slowly come out of their shell. I'd like to think I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable around me. I'm eager to help you with your pets. Monday through Friday, I'm available from 4pm until midnight. On Saturdays and Sundays, I'm available from 7am until midnight. I love to take dogs for walks. I take my dog for a walk every day to my apartment's dog run where we play for at least 30 minutes. If your dog is staying overnight with me, I can make sure to take your dog to the dog run when it's cooler, right before sunset. I can watch cats in my apartment, too.

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.

“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've taken care of pets my whole life, including giving meds, changing diapers for those in heat, taken care of pets is cathartic for me and I love them. I'm a retired law enforcement professional looking to help make a difference for families knowing their pets are well-cared for and loved while their parents are away. Since retired, I have all the time in the world to do something more fun! I will do whatever your pet may need and want. I'm patient and kind, and know the feeling when having to drop fur babies off at someone house. I want to make sure to earn your confidence! Whatever instructions are given, I will provide exactly. I also try to play with them, walk them, ensure they feel safe. I have a safe non-smoking home with a great lanai to look at the conservation areas, and make sure there are no impediments to their safety and happiness.

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.
“Alexa was an excellent pet-sitter. She was punctual and responsive, and took good care of our dog. She kept us informed with regular messages and pictures, which was very reassuring. Alexa followed our instructions carefully, and even spent some extra time playing with our dog after the walk. We highly recommend hiring Alexa for your furry babies - you won't be disappointed.”

“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.”
“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.”
“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 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!”
“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!”
“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”
“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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!”
“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 was my first time using Rover and a pet sitter. Brian was amazing. He sent me updates and pictures several times a day, and my pups looked very happy. The best part of Brian’s service is that he works from home so my pups were with him all day. It made me feel good knowing that my pups weren’t in a kennel all day like they would be in at the pet resort I used in the past. I highly recommend Brian. He’s the best!”
“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.”
“Carmín was amazing! She is an excellent communicator and very responsive answering our questions and correspondence promptly. She kept us informed of how our pet was doing throughout her stay, and even sent us pictures that allowed for us to have peace of mind during our getaway. At pick up time, she had Zoey’s things ready and even had a checklist to make sure we left with everything we had dropped off. We appreciated every moment of our experience doing business with Carmin, from the initial contact, to the meet and greet time, and to the first visit to her home. The fact that she only accepts one family pet at a time gave us great peace of mind. We highly recommend Carmin, and will be using her again. Thank you, Carmin.”
“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! 🌟🐾”
