“Tracey was great! She helped us out with a last min stay and took such great care of our dood, Miko. She sent plenty of updates and photos, and he came home happy, tired, and clearly well loved. So thankful for her flexibility and the care she gave him. Would absolutely book again!”
“Needed a sitter on short notice while our apartment was being fumigated, I was so grateful for Jennifer taking them in while I was at work. She's very kind, gentle, and caring, providing perfect care for both our sweet kitties. One of our cats had a bit of irritation in her eye from some dirt, and she was able to give her the eye drops we left with her. Absolutely will book her again if/when I need a sitter, you can tell how much she loves what she does.”
“Graham had a wonderful time with Lindsay & her warm/caring family. We reached out a few days before 4th of July (and our wedding) panicked that Graham’s original sitter was busy. Lindsay was quick to respond, asked questions to ensure Graham’s stay was comfortable, and was very tentative to his needs (kindly keeping in touch and making accommodations to ensure that Graham was well taken care of). When my husband picked up Graham, Lindsay’s daughter sent our little pup home with a cute one-of-a-kind drawing and hugs. Lindsay and her family did not just pup sit for us - they treated Graham like family (and that makes us very very grateful). Graham looks forward to his next stay (and next time his little sister Pandora will join) ?”
“Bailey is our go-to person for Nero! She takes excellent care of him and always keeps us updated. We are very grateful to have found someone we can trust and count on whenever we need someone to watch him. ❤️🐕🦺🐾🦴”
“Mrs. Tara was absolutely amazing with our baby Kora! She was so kind and attentive, and had no problem accommodating Kora’s special needs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Kora was in such great hands. Her communication was great — she kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Stephanie was amazing with our fur baby Kobe! I would highly recommend her to anyone who chooses to board with her. She sent me multiple updates consistently throughout the day (with pictures) and reassured me that’s everything was going great! ♥️ I would definitely rebook with her! Highly recommend booking with her when you leave for your next trip!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Tammy as our dog sitter for the first time. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease by prioritizing Milo’s safety and well-being. She was extremely attentive and caring, ensuring everything was handled with love and professionalism. We especially appreciated her frequent updates and photos, which kept us reassured and connected while we were away. Tammy went above and beyond to make sure Milo felt comfortable and cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter — we will definitely be using her services again!”
“FRIDA IS A LIFESAVER!!! I have been dealing with housing repairs and she has been so helpful and flexible with watching and letting him spend nights. She’s truly great at what she does and such a sweetheart. She sends pics and updates throughout the visit and always responds fast. Milo loves going and we love her. Thank you again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Kelsey is hands down THE BEST! I've always had dogs but never needed a sitter. I had week long trip coming up and for the first time in 40 years I found myself searching for someone to care for my Benny. Kelsey was quick to reply to my inquiry, offered me an abundance of reassurance and took all worries off my shoulders. We communicated effortlessly before, during, and even the day after my trip when she made sure Benny settled back in at home. I received adorable pictures, videos and updates throughout Benny's stay. Thank you Kelsey!!!!! I look forward to reaching out the next time Benny needs a friend to hang out with. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ (10 stars)”
“Amy did a fantastic job! We had a very last minute trip and the day of she accepted our puppy. She took sooo many pictures and videos. She did exactly what we asked at night time because our pup gave separation anxiety. Our pup seemed SO happy but also worn out from play with their dogs (who seem so sweet). We will definitely be hiring her again for future boarding.”
“I’m so happy and relieved that we found DeAnne!! She is a lifesaver when we need to travel and a godsend for our pups! DeAnne is an animal lover and will take the very best care of your babies while giving them a home away from home with lots of love! ❤️🐾”
“Tiffany did a wonderful job with our Evie. She sent regular updates and pictures throughout the week. Her home was very tidy, and she made a special space for Evie. When we picked her up, her kitty box had been cleaned, and all of her belongings were well organized. Evie is very shy, but she seemed to do well at Tiffany's home. We will definitely use her again, and we recommend her highly.”
“My dog links could not tell me if he liked his stay with Jess but he was not to eger to leave or get in car which tells me service was good. I will use this service again in the future Ed”
“I would absolutely give Melinda & McKenna 10 out of 5 if I could! Melinda was so responsive setting up a meet and greet with the introduction to her home. I immediately felt such great connection! Gracie Mae was welcomed for a long weekend stay. Sweet Eli was so welcoming and such a great companion. From the pictures you would have thought they were kindred spirits. The communication, updates, pictures throughout the weekend certainly put my curiosity to ease immediately just after the first day ! The love of their home to your furry baby is above and beyond! I’m looking forward to the next getaway and I know Gracie will be looking forward to her next stay! This is truly a spa retreat filled with so much love! Melinda & McKenna you are the best and thank you for the abundance of love!”
“Gretchen & Marc are the best! They care for you fur baby like it was their own. They are very concerned for the well being of your pet. Cotton had a great time and can't wait for her next visit.”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Sushma take care of my two dogs, Bubba and Yogii, and I can't express how thrilled I am with her service! From the moment we met, I could tell that Sushma has a genuine love for animals. She took the time to get to know both of my dogs, understanding their unique personalities and needs. Throughout the duration of her pet-sitting, Sushma was incredibly attentive and responsible. She followed my instructions to the letter, ensuring that Bubba and Yogii were fed on schedule, took their daily walks, and received plenty of playtime. I loved receiving regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing that my pups were in excellent hands. Sushma’s warm and friendly demeanor made it easy for my dogs to bond with her. They seemed so happy and content when I returned home, and I could tell they had been well cared for. It’s clear that Sushma is passionate about her work and goes above and beyond to provide a nurturing environment for the pets she looks after. I highly recommend Sushma as a pet sitter! Her professionalism, kindness, and love for animals have truly made her a standout caregiver for Bubba and Yogii. I will definitely be reaching out to her for future pet-sitting needs! Thank you, Sushma, for taking such wonderful care of my furry family members!”
“Dahlia took amazing care of Oscar. She was loving and kind to him and provided us regular updates with tidbits of daily activities. I could tell Oscar had a great time with her.”
“Goldendoodle Queisha took wonderful care of our 6-year-old Goldendoodle. We really appreciated the updates and the stress-free boarding experience for the day. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”
“Yuwadee is great. This was our first time leaving these pets with her and she was wonderful. Our 2 rescue pups are a little high need and they seemed to love their time with her. She took great care of them and sent lots of photos.”

“Bailey did an amazing job with my cats! She asked plenty of clarifying questions during the meet-n-greet and provided updates while I was gone. My cats especially appreciated that she took time to play with them when she stopped in. Even my camera-shy cat made several appearances for her. :)”
“Liberty did an amazing job taking care of our kitty, Hermione, while we were on vacation. She is caring and so meticulous with everything we asked of her - and Hermione instantly fell in love with her! We will definitely connect with Liberty next time we need help with our sweet girl.”
About: bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with animals, especially cats, that truly sets me apart from other sitters. I grew up helping at my parents’ dog boarding facility starting at just 10 years old, where I was actively involved in cleaning, feeding, and caring for a wide variety of animals with different temperaments and needs. In addition to that experience, I’ve personally owned and cared for several cats throughout my life, giving me a deep understanding of feline behavior, routines, and comfort preferences. I’m confident working with cats of all ages, from energetic kittens who need patience and guidance with routines, to senior cats who may require a gentler approach, medication support, or extra attention. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior, which helps me quickly notice if something seems off and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable. My goal is always to create a calm, clean, and stress-free environment where your cat feels secure while you’re away.

We walk and exercise them frequently, and feed them 2-3 times per day. Lots of treats and love as well!
About: I’ve had a cat all of my life from early childhood to present day. I love playing with them but I also know to look for signs when they start to get overstimulated and how to healthily get that energy out of them.

“My dog had an incredible experience at Ryan’s. It was the first I have used this service. I was a little nervous, but was immediately put at ease by Ryan’s, kind calm demeanor. He has a beautiful home with a nice back yard for dogs to play in and his dog are sweethearts. I could not have hoped for a better situation for my pup.”

About: Animal lover by nature, my connection with animals started as early as I can remember. I carry a deep reverence for them, often connecting more easily with animals than humans throughout my life. I’m trained in wildlife rescue and experienced with all types of animals, and I’m also trained in reiki for animals. My own family includes cats, a dog, a frog, a fish, and a snake, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and care needs. I move with calm awareness and responsibility in every situation, and I treat animals like family, your pet is guaranteed to be cared for with true intention, presence, and love. I work from home and create my own schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my routine around their needs, whether that’s playtime, feeding, or quiet companionship. I also have a basement apartment space if a pet needs a calm, separate environment away from other animals. In addition, I have a fenced yard on a 1/4 acre lot located on a dead-end road, which provides a safe and quiet space for walks and outdoor time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to keep the animal comfortable and stress-free. I pay attention to feeding schedules, walking routines, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. I move with calm awareness, making sure the pet feels safe and at ease in their own environment. I also keep the home clean and respect the space fully while I’m there. My goal is to maintain consistency for the pet and give the owner peace of mind knowing their animal is cared for with intention and attention.
About: As lifelong dog lovers, we know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. We had two sweet dogs of our own for 14 and 12 years, and they were truly part of our family. Spoiled , loved, and very well cared for. We understand that every dog deserves patience, attention, safety, and lots of love while their owners are away. Your pup will be welcomed into our home like one of our own, with plenty of care, affection, and a comfortable environment to help them feel safe and happy. Pet care naturally fits into our daily routine because we genuinely enjoy having dogs around and caring for them. We’re home every day and used to structuring our days around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. Our home is calm, safe, and pet-friendly, and we understand the importance of consistency and routine for dogs while their owners are away. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I do my best to keep things consistent and stress-free for them while their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a calm, clean, and welcoming environment with plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and affection throughout the day. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I’ll respect their space while making sure their pets stay comfortable in their familiar routine and environment. My goal is always to care for every pet as if they were my own.
“Ben has been going to Yui’s home for many years now. We are so grateful for her special attention to his care. He’s getting older (almost 15 years old) and he always receives a good report. It’s been great to have such a reliable sitter to trust when we need to leave town for a few days.”
“Patricia absolutely saved the day when we had a family emergency and asked her to watch Mina on short notice. She responded promptly and did everything to make it an amazing afternoon for our Shih Tzu! She sent tons of photos, kept us updated, and bent over backwards to help us out. Her energy was calming and reassuring in what was a very stressful time for us. We are so grateful and would book her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve had all pets from, kittens, puppies, geckos, chameleons, fish, and birds! I love spending time with animals and Id love to spend time with/ take care of yours! 🤍 I have full time availability as a SAHM and would like to devote my time to helping pet owners in the Gainesville and the surrounding areas, to give their fur babies the love and attention they deserve while you take care of your priorities! I have grown up around many animals from kittens, to dogs, to even horses and have been taught the proper way to approach and handle dogs who may be shy, or have a temperament towards new people. I am also very cautious with the temps outside when walking dogs to insure their paws are not burned in the or picking up mud with the unpredictable GA weather. Your babies would we treated as one of my own 🫶🏼
About: I have loved dogs my entire life. Growing up being an animal lover, some of my best memories are with my dogs throughout my childhood. Since then, I have always had dogs, and can’t imagine my life without them. I’ve helped friends and family throughout my life care for their dogs - sitting, bathing, walking, etc. We have two dogs of our own, Ollie (a two year old goldendoodle) and Layla (a 12 year old papillon.) We have had both of our dogs since they were puppies, so we are familiar with puppy training as well as the special care that senior dogs need. We consider them members of our family, and I have always hated boarding them at traditional kennels. Leaving them with a trusted sitter has given us such peace of mind when we go out of town, and I hope to provide that same peace of mind for you. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I will be able to have your dogs out with me during the day, and have them sleep comfortably in their crates at night or when they’re unsupervised. I will also be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and walks. We have an acre of open yard and a semi-wooded space to have plenty of supervised playtime. We have plenty of room inside and out to run and play! When your dogs are unsupervised, they will be safely in their crate in our large, open, finished basement. I provide boarding for indoor crate trained dogs, who are up to date on all vaccines including Bordetella, are house/potty trained, and on flea/tick prevention. They also must be friendly with other dogs and children.
“Our dogs’ first visit with Yuwadee and they seemed to throughly enjoy it. They were able to run outside and play with her dogs and relax indoors. Very happy to have found Yudawee for future pet sitting”
About: As someone who personally has an animal with special needs I understand the kind of care they need! I also have experience working with animals of all ages. Along with working with animals of all ages I have both volunteered and worked at a local Humane Society. Working there entailed feeding, cleaning, and providing medical care to both cats and dogs. As a student who only works a part time job I am back and forth between campus and my house all week. With an older cat I frequently drop by my house throughout the day to check on him. Because of this I would be able to provide the same care to your animals as well. I live in a quiet neighborhood near several large parks. Because of this I will be able to not only walk dogs in my neighborhood but take them to surrounding parks to walk and play! Along with taking dogs out my home is equipped with cat friendly furniture,scratchers and enrichment.
“Great experience! Recently my dog stayed several hours with DeAnne. She took excellent care of him. He’s now scheduled for two nights of boarding. I’m very happy to have found DeAnne on Rover.”

I’m home full-time, which means your dog will get plenty of outdoor breaks, playtime, and all the love and attention they deserve.

I've worked with rescues handling the worst abuse and fight cases, so I guarantee I can easily manage caring for any family pet. My earliest animal-care work dates back to the 80's, when I was full-time care-giver for 9 dogs, 7 cats, and 3 horses, all for one employer! Here in the Atlanta area, I helped run adoption events for FCAS, finding homes for 100's of dogs. In my own house, we've fostered over 20 dogs in the past 3 years, saving them from over-crowded shelters, and helping them find new lives. I know animals. I especially know dogs. And I love them.
About: Ever since I was 8 I've been responsible for caring and training many pets and dogs of my own. I've dogsat for multiple neighbors all the way through college and after. I'm a huge dog lover and will go to great lengths to care for your pet. I’m a college film graduate working part time. I spend as much time as I can outside or surrounded by animals. I live with a malshi dog, cat and my husband’s rat terrier mix. I'm kind of a dog nerd so chances are I've already read up on your breeds specific qualities. I'm friendly and love to be active whether it's running on a hiking trail or playing catch in the yard with your furry friend. Let's get in touch and I'll try my best to help you in any way I can. Thank you for your time, CJ (: I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding every day of the week except Sundays I have a large backyard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your small - medium dog if needed
About: I have been taking care of dogs since 12-14 years old. I grew up surrounded by all types of dogs and cats and have developed a huge love for them. I am currently a part-time college student and receptionist looking to make some extra money! I will have a free schedule until August when school starts. I will watch and care for your dog at any hours. If needed, I can crate your dog or stay at my place. I have a fur baby of my own who is sweet and loving.
About: I’ve had pets growing up all of my life and still have one to this day. I love all animals and enjoy watching them be happy and playful in a great environment! I’m a teacher so I’m available during holidays and all summer long! My schedule is predictable otherwise I work from 8am-4am, so apart from that I’m free to take care of your pet needs. I have a cat in my home and she is friendly to other animals! I have plenty of toys and a nice open field in my neighborhood to take dogs for walks/ play with them.
About: Animal lover by nature, my connection with animals started as early as I can remember. I carry a deep reverence for them, often connecting more easily with animals than humans throughout my life. I’m trained in wildlife rescue and experienced with all types of animals, and I’m also trained in reiki for animals. My own family includes cats, a dog, a frog, a fish, and a snake, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and care needs. I move with calm awareness and responsibility in every situation, and I treat animals like family, your pet is guaranteed to be cared for with true intention, presence, and love. I work from home and create my own schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my routine around their needs, whether that’s playtime, feeding, or quiet companionship. I also have a basement apartment space if a pet needs a calm, separate environment away from other animals. In addition, I have a fenced yard on a 1/4 acre lot located on a dead-end road, which provides a safe and quiet space for walks and outdoor time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to keep the animal comfortable and stress-free. I pay attention to feeding schedules, walking routines, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. I move with calm awareness, making sure the pet feels safe and at ease in their own environment. I also keep the home clean and respect the space fully while I’m there. My goal is to maintain consistency for the pet and give the owner peace of mind knowing their animal is cared for with intention and attention.
About: I have 5 years of professional animal care. I’ve worked in Veterinary offices and many shelters. Animals are a huge part of my life and I love being around them. I’m great with any kind of animal big or small and any species. I am a down to earth girl who loves animals more than anything. All animals are welcome. Every animal is safe and happy In my care, and I will love them and treat them as my own! I am home full time all day every day and I’m here to help with your babies.

I have a fenced in backyard for lots of running around! If your dog requires walks we live in a very big neighborhood that I walk daily with my daughter

“Kelsey is hands down THE BEST! I've always had dogs but never needed a sitter. I had week long trip coming up and for the first time in 40 years I found myself searching for someone to care for my Benny. Kelsey was quick to reply to my inquiry, offered me an abundance of reassurance and took all worries off my shoulders. We communicated effortlessly before, during, and even the day after my trip when she made sure Benny settled back in at home. I received adorable pictures, videos and updates throughout Benny's stay. Thank you Kelsey!!!!! I look forward to reaching out the next time Benny needs a friend to hang out with. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ (10 stars)”
“Amy did a fantastic job! We had a very last minute trip and the day of she accepted our puppy. She took sooo many pictures and videos. She did exactly what we asked at night time because our pup gave separation anxiety. Our pup seemed SO happy but also worn out from play with their dogs (who seem so sweet). We will definitely be hiring her again for future boarding.”
“I’m so happy and relieved that we found DeAnne!! She is a lifesaver when we need to travel and a godsend for our pups! DeAnne is an animal lover and will take the very best care of your babies while giving them a home away from home with lots of love! ❤️🐾”

“I would absolutely give Melinda & McKenna 10 out of 5 if I could! Melinda was so responsive setting up a meet and greet with the introduction to her home. I immediately felt such great connection! Gracie Mae was welcomed for a long weekend stay. Sweet Eli was so welcoming and such a great companion. From the pictures you would have thought they were kindred spirits. The communication, updates, pictures throughout the weekend certainly put my curiosity to ease immediately just after the first day ! The love of their home to your furry baby is above and beyond! I’m looking forward to the next getaway and I know Gracie will be looking forward to her next stay! This is truly a spa retreat filled with so much love! Melinda & McKenna you are the best and thank you for the abundance of love!”

“Yuwadee is great. This was our first time leaving these pets with her and she was wonderful. Our 2 rescue pups are a little high need and they seemed to love their time with her. She took great care of them and sent lots of photos.”
“Ryan and his family are lovely people and took excellent care of my dog. They have a young Aussie who was also sweet and my dog came back to me very relaxed and happy (and very tired after all the fun!). Ryan offered to bathe my dog after he got dirty on a hike, which was very thoughtful. He sent frequent photos and kept me in the loop with everything, which put me at ease after having a poor experience with a previous Rover dog sitter. I couldn’t recommend this family enough! Thank you Ryan and family!”
“Rene was fantastic with our 2 pups! Got daily updates and the pups looked like they had a great time and felt like family 😊 highly recommended and will book with Rene again!”

I truly appreciate her professionalism and the genuine care she showed for my pets. I will definitely be using her services again in the future.”
