“Diana was wonderful! This was the first time leaving our English bulldog, so we were nervous. But Diana put us at ease, she sent pictures daily and had great communication with us. He looked so happy in all the pictures. We will definitely be using Diana again!”
“Alway a great experience. Every time we leave Dexter with Kendall and Matthew is peace of mind for us. Dexter really enjoys staying with them and we know he's going to be safe.”
“Kayla was such a wonderful sitter! I recommend her to those who have trust issues with their fur baby being away from home. She will change that fear into a positive experience. By the end of the first day, I knew I chose the right sitter for my baby. Kayla provided multiple pictures and updates throughout the entire time she had my baby with her. She was very accommodating and followed my instructions to a tee. I will definitely keep Kayla and her husband as my sitter for many more care sitting in the future. Thank you Kayla!! You were awesome!!!”
“Sarah is amazing! She has taken Kaiser in twice now while we’ve been out of town and he has such a good time and well taken cared of. She consistently provides updates and pictures which is really nice too. I would highly recommend Sarah for watching your pup!”
“Julia did great with our senior dog Bo! She was responsive and sent pictures throughout the stay. Since she is a vet tech, Bo was in great hands during his stay. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Yara and her family were so friendly and Oreo fit in well with her crew. She sent pics throughout the stay and kept us updated and was extremely responsive for dropoff and pickup.”
“My girls had a great time with Madelyn! They got daily walks and plenty of time outside. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos. My girls will be back :)”
“Wow! What an incredible boarding situation Robert provides! He took care of my dogs, including one very senior guy and didn’t flinch at his list of needs. My dogs came home happy and healthy. Robert sent pics and updates daily. It was the first time in a long time I traveled and had zero worries. I’d give him SIX stars if it was an option! Thank you so much.”
“Ainla took great care of our dog. She was very communicative during our stay, providing lots of pictures and videos. When we picked our dog up, we could tell that he had bonded with Ainla and that he had a fun time during his stay. We definitely recommend Ainla and would be happy to work with her again!”
“Reymun was responsive during the booking process, super friendly when we did the meet-and-greet, and took excellent care of our boy. He followed all our instructions and provided an update with pictures daily. Our dog is quite big, super strong, and has reactivity issues and Reymun was able to deal with all of that. Would absolutely book him again in the future”
“It’s like Judith said in her bio. The dogs didn’t really miss us. The love and affection they received was quite evident. Our pets were happy to see us, but looked and acted as they longed to stay longer. Thank you sooo much for the love, attention, texts, and pictures!”
“Andrea took such good care of Forrest! She is so sweet and attentive. I especially alpreciated that she kept me updated all weekend with photos and videos. You can tell her love for animals. Will be rebooking!”
“Jessica was an attentive and communicative host! I left my dog in her care and have no doubt she was treated as a family member. Jessica kept me updated about my dog's behaviors and eating habits while I was away and sent photos and updates regularly. She answered all my questions and happily gave me a tour of her home so I could see where my dog would be staying. I would be glad to have Jessica as a pet sitter again and will recommend her to others as well. Thanks for everything!”
“He was an amazing sitter for Diamond and truly went above and beyond! He made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. He kept me updated with pictures every day, was very communicative, and even made her little treats. He made me feel completely at ease knowing Diamond was in such great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking with him again if I ever need someone to watch Diamond. I highly recommend him!”

“Colette was amazing with my pup! I received daily pictures and updates on how he was doing so that I could feel assured he was happy and having fun. She even noticed some ear inflammation and treated it with drops to ensure it didn’t get any worse. I knew my pup was enjoying his vacation as I enjoyed mine. I would definitely recommend Colette and will be contacting her myself for future visits!”
“This was our first time to ever leave our dog for more than a day so we were worried how he would adjust. However, it went splendidly with Zai and her family! She eased my worries with photos of Fraser happily hanging with them and Zai gave me regular updates. It is comforting to know we have a second home for him so maybe we will travel more!”
“Highly recommend! She was fabulous in every way. Gave updates on how our dog was doing, was flexible when we needed to extend our trip, and most of all loved on our dog. Her energy is calm and confident - a great fit for dog sitting. She truly gifted us with peace of mind while we were away. Will 100% use her again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs, cats and even horses since the age of 9. From drop ins, dog walking, overnights and even puppy classes I have worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have potty trained, crate trained, and taught basic commands to both puppy and adult dogs. I have cared for senior dogs and have experience giving meds and care for post surgery/medical procedure. From the time I was a child I have loved being trusted to care for neighbors and friends animals while they were away. No animal is off limits as I love them all! I look forward to meeting and working with you and yours! I am currently staying at home while my husband works so my schedule is very open. Every day of the week is a possibility for drop ins or overnight care. I live in a home with plenty of space to crate your baby if they stay the night, ensuring their safety and ours. I currently own a 75lb goldendoodle who loves playing with other dogs. My neighborhood is incredibly dog friendly and is lined on a paved circle perfect for walking dogs. I usually do an AM and PM walk to allow dogs to potty, along with intermittently taking them out throughout the day. Most play time happens inside where there is a much lower risk of escape or overheating.
“Kelly was an excellent cat sitter and took great care of my cat while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and made sure my cat was comfortable and well cared for at all times. Communication was clear and timely, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would absolutely trust Kelly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.”

I grew up on a farm taking care of all the animals from horses, cows, pigs, chickens , dogs , cats , turkeys etc. I’m very patient with animals who take more time to get to know new people who come into their lives and I love my senior animals who take a little longer on our walks :) I just moved to Florida from Arizona.

About: Hello! I am a teacher looking to love on animals and make some money to help pay for my wedding! I have cared for many kinds of animals/homes over the years and pride myself on building close bonds with dogs and owners alike! As a pet parent to 2 dogs and 3 cats, I know how important it is to be able to leave your fur babies with someone you can trust. My former teachers, neighbors, and family members have all entrusted me with their dearest pets with satisfaction guaranteed! I am a teacher with summers off so pet care is currently my full time job! I can arrange my schedule to include twice or three times daily care minimum. I am also experienced in working with medically fragile dogs and cats who may need extra care! I make sure that the animals not only have their basic needs met, but also give them plenty attention and love…if they want it! I also respect that each animal is unique and may want solace over snuggles. I take the time to bond with every animal and figure out what they actually need.

“I have a senior dog with special needs. Kate asked intelligent appropriate questions to evaluate if she and Matthew would be a good fit to ensure my dog was not a risk to himself, their home, or other dogs, and how to best meet his needs by understanding his behaviors. Once we agreed to a trial day care day. I was impressed with the care provided and my dog was very comfortable and happy being there. Kate sent photos and updates and was quickly responsive to my questions. Their dogs and teens are good companions to the client dogs, the house is dog-friendly in comfort and safety with all non-chewable temptations stowed away, and their spacious fenced yard provides stimulation and exercise. With a dog-friendly pool, they are hitting the pet resort level for my Boykin! They have earned our trust and respect as dog care providers, and we are grateful to have found them!”

About: I have owned or cared for my own dogs my entire life. Having lost my senior 'Stanley' last year I find myself longing for a dog's company and spirit. My own dogs have lived long lives - two for 18 years, one for 17 so I know how to give meds and care for their special needs. Stanley's petsitter recommended I try Rover - so here I am! I can come to your house, or bring your dog here to my 1/2 acre fenced in yard, with a dog door to the house and lots of time to share with your pet. I am retired and in Tallahassee or the vicinity walking or meeting up with friends. I have lots of free time to share with your pet. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard and a dog door to the house. I have a pool. I can come to your house if needed, or care for your dog here.
About: I grew up around animals of all kinds — dogs, cats, cows, pigs, and more — so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have two spoiled pups of my own, Milly and RJ, and I treat every pet in my care like family. 🐾 I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy time outside. In the evenings, we enjoy walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog loves most. I know how important routines are for pets, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I’m dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! The dogs get plenty of opportunities throughout the day to go outside, play, explore the fenced-in yard, or relax inside with me while I work. In the evenings, we have more time for outdoor play, walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog enjoys most. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, and supervision. 🐾 I will care for your pet like they’re one of my own! 🐾 I know how important routines and comfort are for animals, so I do my best to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets in my home will receive lots of attention, love, supervision, and cuddles throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and pets are welcome to relax inside with me just like family. Treats are always given with owner permission, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions or preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. We adopted Frankie in June 2025. He’s very dog friendly. Frankie is about 45 pounds. He is pretty energetic and can play rough so we’d do best with dogs his size or larger that match his energy and play style. We are a pretty active household. We like to spend time in the backyard and go for walks around the neighborhood or on the trails. I typically work from home so your dog won’t be alone for long. We have done a lot of training since getting Frankie. I’ve become very knowledgeable on training and dog behaviors. I am certainly no expert, but you can trust will we care for your fur baby as if they were our own. If there are behaviors or training you are working on, I will be happy to continue that during their stay. Contact me for any additional information! I primarily work from home so I have the flexibility to accommodate most needs. We tend to walk in the morning and evening with a midday potty break and play. You can trust I will follow any and all care instructions you provide for your dog. You know what’s best for them and I understand the importance of that. I will be sure to follow your typical routine so your dog is as comfortable as possible.
“Aylee was absolutely wonderful with Peaches! She accommodated us on very short notice, which we really appreciated, and she was incredibly communicative and friendly throughout the entire stay. We felt confident right away that Peaches was in great hands. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for. We would recommend Aylee to anyone and are already looking forward to bringing Peaches back in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old, so I’m very experienced with their needs and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every dog like my own. Being a student athlete has taught me responsibility, consistency, and time management. I plan my days carefully, so I always have time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I treat every pet like my own and follow their regular routine with feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also create space for crates in my apartment so pets feel safe and comfortable.
About: I trained canine assistance dogs for 9 months and have over 25 years of experience. I’m very good with all types and personalities when it comes to our furry companions Working on switching my career path right now since there is a shift to corporate medicine in animal hospitals and as support staff I lost the feeling of being supported, or properly compensated myself. I recently started watching my neice from 6-4 Monday through Friday. Sometimes I will do delivery driving at night, but only if that is ok with you! I also have my medical marijuana card. Despite that review that says I agreed not to, I have never negotiated this. I’m an anxious, insomniac with cyclical vomiting syndrome. Some days I would not be ok without it🥺 I apologize if that does not work for anybody, but one must take care of themselves before they can care for others. This actually isn’t lucrative enough with my schedule. I ONLY do this because animals are my passion!!! Feel free to ask me any questions at all! I really am an open book! I have a 3/3 townhouse set up with lots of room for walks. Unfortunately there is no fence, but it is a very pet friendly environment.

About: I am new to the business of dog walking and dog sitting, but I have been around dogs the majority of my life. Growing up my family had three dogs, and currently I have a seven year old rescue dog, named Arya, whom I had adopted in 2019. I have lived in Tallahassee for almost 8 years now, so I am very familiar with the area. Looking forward to this experience! While I used to be employed as a TA at FSU when I was a graduate student, I am currently unemployed and searching for research positions as a biologist. My days consist currently of job applications, so I hace a flexible schedule. My own dog is a mutt, mixed with pitbull and Rottweiler, so I know there is no such thing as "a bad breed." I will treat all dogs with the same love and care.
“I’m so grateful for Kelly! She’s helped me out twice in a last-minute pinch and was incredibly reliable, responsive, and kind. Lucy was well cared for and happy, and I had total peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors pets for many years! All types of animals as well.

About: About My Experience I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals, raising and caring for a wide variety of species. I don't just love pets—I understand their unique behaviors, diets, and routines. From energetic dogs to sensitive exotic animals, I treat every pet in my care with the same patience and love I give my own. Dogs & Cats: Lifetime experience with various breeds, tempers, and energy levels. Why Choose Me? Because of my diverse background, I am uniquely equipped to handle multi-pet households. If you have a dog and a tank full of fish, or a cat and a rabbit, you don't need to hire two different sitters. I am detail-oriented, highly reliable, and comfortable following strict feeding, medication, or habitat instructions to keep your pets safe, happy, and thriving while you are away! I am pretty flexible. I am a football coach at Colquitt County so I’m usually there from 8AM - 12PM but I’m free most of the rest of the day so I’m happy to pop in and check on your babies when you’re away for long hours. I have a fenced in yard at my home. I’m super careful with my pets and I always walk the dogs on leashes. I don’t let them roam and I’m respectful of other people and animals.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family for years now and figured it’s time to branch out the business. I live alone, have a large back yard and a nice park nearby my house. I would pet sit at times when I am available to and take on pets in a manner that makes logistical sense for me and my schedule. I check on them and look for any signs of obvious discomfort or distress. Make sure they have time to use the bathroom/clean litter box and water. Most animals will try and communicate to you what they need, so it’s good to follow the routines they have at home and interpret what they need and at what time.
About: I’ve cared for a variety of dogs since I was a kid. I worked at a kennel previously and have experience bathing, feeding, administering medication, and walking dogs. I have a Labrador Retriever that I regularly bathe, clip his nails, and clean his ears! I also have a cat as well. I have experience caring for many other animals too! I just graduated and would love to work out house sitting, drop in visits, or walks within my schedule and responsibilities! Most weekends I am available too! I prefer drop-in visits, or to stay at your home. I have experience doing both. I am open to different things and routines, so just let me know!
About: I’ve been a dog and cat groomer for 4 years. I grew up on a farm taking care of all the animals from horses, cows, pigs, chickens , dogs , cats , turkeys etc. I’m very patient with animals who take more time to get to know new people who come into their lives and I love my senior animals who take a little longer on our walks :) I just moved to Florida from Arizona. This will be my full time job for now until I am able to save up to start my own mobile dog and cat business and hopefully be able to provide grooming services to all my lovely clients I am very reliable and flexible. I have always been the neighborhood help for pet care when my neighbors went on vacation. I’ve helped with feeding their farm animal and their indoor animals . I always follow the instructions giving to me and I always show up on time !
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other large and small animals since I was 10. I have also worked in a vets office which has only increased my knowledge and care giving skills for all types of animals. Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me anytime any day of the week to care for their furry friends. I am currently working with Rover full time so I will have time to play with your pets any time of the day with no worries that they will get the care they deserve. although I live in a apartment, I am more happy to take her for a friend for a long enjoyable walk or hike so they get the enrichment they need. If staying at your home, I can be flexible with any care instructions given. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible!
About: One of my biggest joys in life are animals. Every chance I get, I look after the pets of family and friends. I have been watching my grandmas 2 dogs when they go out of town for about 2 years. I have friends who ask me regularly to look after their furry friends for days to weeks at a time. Ive dealt with puppies, animals in need of medication, and non-Potty trained animals. I have stayed night at houses or just stopped by regularly depending on what you prefer. I have worked with pit bulls down to chihuahua's. Aside from just pets I also volunteer at a horse rescue which had an abundance of animals and i have learned a great amount from that experience. Not to mention I have 6 animals of my own (4 cats, 2 dogs) whom I love dearly. I currently work Part-Time at ALDI as a Store Associate. We stay relatively overstaffed therefore i get a maximum of 20 hours a week, leaving me with plenty of time with your pets! Safety is always number one when it comes to all pets im responsible for. I prioritize the wellbeing an an animal as i do myself. For example, At my house we have a fenced in yard for the dogs to play but when my dog was a puppy, she would jump the fence. Therefore i would prioritize letting her out with a leash in the back yard to prevent her from getting harmed off our property.
About: I have five cats and a dog of my own. I love exploring new trails and finding new places to walk. I also have experience administering medication to pets. I grew up with a dog that needed lots of medicine. I have plenty of experience with injections, pills, and liquids. I will treat your baby like my own. I truly miss the animals I watch when I inevitably have to leave. I hope you will trust me with your baby soon! I currently work part time and I am in nursing school. I can try to make any booking work with advance notice. Please reach out and we can make it work! I am very careful with making sure harnesses are on and safe. I make sure the water and food bowl are full and nothing is out that is dangerous.
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life and worked with many shelters to provide assistance with animals. Training to become a vet at my college of Florida State University. Pet care fits into my daily routine all the time. Love putting animals first and don’t have much for the summer since all my classes are online. I respect the clients home and make sure whatever I touch or use I put back into the same place in which I found it. I would give clients animals respect and excitement to bring joy to being taken care of

“Sarah is amazing! She has taken Kaiser in twice now while we’ve been out of town and he has such a good time and well taken cared of. She consistently provides updates and pictures which is really nice too. I would highly recommend Sarah for watching your pup!”
“Julia did great with our senior dog Bo! She was responsive and sent pictures throughout the stay. Since she is a vet tech, Bo was in great hands during his stay. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Yara and her family were so friendly and Oreo fit in well with her crew. She sent pics throughout the stay and kept us updated and was extremely responsive for dropoff and pickup.”
“My girls had a great time with Madelyn! They got daily walks and plenty of time outside. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos. My girls will be back :)”
“Wow! What an incredible boarding situation Robert provides! He took care of my dogs, including one very senior guy and didn’t flinch at his list of needs. My dogs came home happy and healthy. Robert sent pics and updates daily. It was the first time in a long time I traveled and had zero worries. I’d give him SIX stars if it was an option! Thank you so much.”
“Ainla took great care of our dog. She was very communicative during our stay, providing lots of pictures and videos. When we picked our dog up, we could tell that he had bonded with Ainla and that he had a fun time during his stay. We definitely recommend Ainla and would be happy to work with her again!”
“Reymun was responsive during the booking process, super friendly when we did the meet-and-greet, and took excellent care of our boy. He followed all our instructions and provided an update with pictures daily. Our dog is quite big, super strong, and has reactivity issues and Reymun was able to deal with all of that. Would absolutely book him again in the future”
“Jessica was an attentive and communicative host! I left my dog in her care and have no doubt she was treated as a family member. Jessica kept me updated about my dog's behaviors and eating habits while I was away and sent photos and updates regularly. She answered all my questions and happily gave me a tour of her home so I could see where my dog would be staying. I would be glad to have Jessica as a pet sitter again and will recommend her to others as well. Thanks for everything!”
“He was an amazing sitter for Diamond and truly went above and beyond! He made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. He kept me updated with pictures every day, was very communicative, and even made her little treats. He made me feel completely at ease knowing Diamond was in such great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking with him again if I ever need someone to watch Diamond. I highly recommend him!”

“Nilanie is an absolute gem! She's sweet, patient, and so good with our cats. From our very first meeting, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our babies in her care. Highly recommend her to any pet parent looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”
“Colette was amazing with my pup! I received daily pictures and updates on how he was doing so that I could feel assured he was happy and having fun. She even noticed some ear inflammation and treated it with drops to ensure it didn’t get any worse. I knew my pup was enjoying his vacation as I enjoyed mine. I would definitely recommend Colette and will be contacting her myself for future visits!”
“This was our first time to ever leave our dog for more than a day so we were worried how he would adjust. However, it went splendidly with Zai and her family! She eased my worries with photos of Fraser happily hanging with them and Zai gave me regular updates. It is comforting to know we have a second home for him so maybe we will travel more!”

I’ve cared for pets of all breeds, shapes, and sizes, handling everything from walks, feeding, bathing, and playtime to litter cleaning and providing attentive companionship. Through this hands-on experience, I’ve learned how to adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that means keeping up with a playful pup’s energy or providing gentle, patient care for older pets. Beyond meeting their daily needs, I focus on building trust and creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment so every pet feels at home while you’re away. My dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals shine through in the care I provide.

About: I grew up around animals of all kinds — dogs, cats, cows, pigs, and more — so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have two spoiled pups of my own, Milly and RJ, and I treat every pet in my care like family. 🐾 I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy time outside. In the evenings, we enjoy walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog loves most. I know how important routines are for pets, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I’m dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! The dogs get plenty of opportunities throughout the day to go outside, play, explore the fenced-in yard, or relax inside with me while I work. In the evenings, we have more time for outdoor play, walks, fetch, or whatever activities your dog enjoys most. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, and supervision. 🐾 I will care for your pet like they’re one of my own! 🐾 I know how important routines and comfort are for animals, so I do my best to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets in my home will receive lots of attention, love, supervision, and cuddles throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and pets are welcome to relax inside with me just like family. Treats are always given with owner permission, and I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions or preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.
“Alicia is the best pet sitter! This was the first time we left our dog, Luna, with someone else and Alicia eased all my worries. She’s very experienced and laid back, which helped me feel confident that Luna would be well cared for. She sent photos daily and kept me updated on how Luna was adjusting. Alicia also spoiled her with long walks and snuggles (her two favorite things)! Alicia’s dog, Maggie, was very sweet and friendly as well and the two dogs were playing and snuggling together after just one day. I would highly recommend Alicia and will definitely use her again.”
