“Anamika is absolutely wonderful! She has cared for Roscoe three times now, and she truly treats him like her own fur baby. She is professional, dependable, and provides such a warm, family environment. Roscoe is always incredibly happy when he stays with her and he even recognizes her neighborhood and gets super excited as soon as we turn onto her street!

About: I’ve cared for cats in a variety of settings, including having a cat growing up and volunteering with a local animal rescue. I’ve also cared for cats for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I understand that every cat has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow their lead, whether they enjoy playtime and companionship or prefer a little more space. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, litter box care, and other needs, and I’ll send photos and updates after each visit so you can feel confident they’re well cared for.

About: I’ve pet sit for neighbors for about 2 years now, and am particularly passionate about getting dogs the outdoor time and exercise they need. I love seeing how much joy and excitement it brings them. I work from home and typically take my own dog on 20-30 minute walks and want to extend the favor to those with less flexible schedules! I work full-time from home, so my schedule is extremely flexible! I am available during weekdays and weekends, and am usually up fairly early to take care of pups who need early-morning care! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I prefer to have detailed instructions so I can ensure care is provided properly. I also make it a top priority to leave the home the same, if not better, than I found it.
“Thankfully we found Michaela. Dependable and caring about our needs. Our boy is shy and she followed his lead to make him comfortable. We will be rebooking with her for sure.”

“My pup had the best time with Nancy, Coffee & family. The fenced in yard was great for her to run around off leash & I felt very comfortable leaving Winnie in Nancy’s care.

About: Taking care of pets has always been my utmost passion! I was an elementary school teacher in BROWARD county for over 25 years. In 2020, I made the difficult decision to take an early retirement from teaching in an effort to pursue my life long passion and goal... caring for pets in a loving, nurturing and trusting manner. Over the years, I have rescued several dogs, many of which had medical concerns that required me to attain proper medication administering (including syringe injections and overall health care). I am available to love and care for your pet/s when my services are needed. I cater to you and your pet’s most convenient needs. I am available to stay in your home or mine. If your needs don’t include overnight stays, I am gladly available to see your pets for feeding, walking and play times. I’m very flexible and am here to meet your needs. Hope to meet you and your fur babies in the near future! I have 2 dogs of my own that are great with other dogs. I enjoy walking, exercising and playtime daily and often. Love to spoil all dogs! (And cats too! 🐾)

I will absolutely use her again and I feel lucky to have found her! <3 Lots of updates and pictures!”
“Svitlana was wonderful with Gerda! She was kind, reliable, and clearly took great care of her. Gerda seemed comfortable and happy, and we felt completely at ease leaving her in Svitlana’s care. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

About: Caring for children has been my career for over 15 years. Working in education, I know that trust isn't given, its earned through consistency, communication and genuine care.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of experience caring for pets and four years as a sitter on Rover. ❤️ Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love getting to know each pup’s personality, quirks, favorite things, and routine. My dog of a lifetime was my Great Dane, who was truly my first baby. I was lucky enough to love him through every stage of his life, including his senior years, before we had to say goodbye. Because of him, I have an extra-special place in my heart for senior dogs and am very comfortable with the additional patience, gentleness, and attention they sometimes need. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own pets as well as dogs belonging to friends, neighbors, and many wonderful families I’ve met through Rover. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities—from playful pups who want lots of walks and attention to older dogs who are happiest curled up next to you getting some extra love. One of the biggest things I want pet parents to know is that your dog will be treated like part of our family while they’re with me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re safe, loved, and getting plenty of attention. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, whether that means walks, meals on a particular schedule, playtime, belly rubs, couch snuggles, or simply having someone nearby so they don’t feel alone. I’m also big on communication and love sending updates and pictures so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away! After four years on Rover, I’ve learned that every dog is different—and that’s one of my favorite parts of doing this. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with the dogs I care for and love when they come back and immediately feel at home. At the end of the day, I care for every dog the way I would want someone to care for mine—with patience, kindness, attention, and lots of love. Your dog isn’t just another Rover booking to us, they’re part of the family while they’re here! I work part-time and create my own hours so I am able to enjoy the flexibility to work around the needs of my clients. This allows me to put your pet first. My husband also tag teams things with me. He is a school teacher and helps out as his schedule allows. I treat each pet like they are my own. I have a large yard and live in a family and pet friendly neighborhood that is amazing for walks. While your pets will get everything they need, they’ll also enjoy the company of a 3 year old beagle mix that was rescued at a week old. She is incredibly friendly and will provide great company for your pet. I follow all directions to a tee and will ensure your pet feels at home even when you are away.
About: I'm an active, work from home dog (and people) dad with a fenced yard and breaks throughout the day to get all the two- and four-legged steps in. Happy to open our home to a few new furry friends to compliment our Aussie/Beagle mix and Jack Russell mix. We have a clean, smoke free home properly appointed for dogs with a fenced back yard and another Rover approved adult (my wife) as a work from home dog (and people!) mom too. Access to nearby greenways and a nice suburban neighborhood for all the walks and maybe an occasional run or two if your pup is up for it. I am a strategic business consultant with long blocks of uncommitted time throughout the day where I can provide walks and entertainment for your pup. Dogs are welcome to be my work buddies in our finished mother-in-law suite turned into an office above the garage. Ample access to the fenced backyard and a couple of built in playmates with our well-mannered Aussie/Beagle and Jack Russell mixes. We have a fenced yard with a doggie door leading from the main home. Dogs will also be restricted to the first floor of our home (no steps required for entry!) which is properly set up for pet care as we have 2 dogs of our own. My wife (also a Rover approved sitter) and I both work from home and are active people who love taking walks throughout the day.

Animals have always been one of the biggest parts of my life, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they’re safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away. While I welcome pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, I especially specialize in caring for energetic puppies, senior dogs, kittens, and cats that require medications or extra attention. 🐶 Energetic puppies receive plenty of walks, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, exercise, and one-on-one attention to help keep them happy and on their routine. 🐕 Senior dogs receive patient, gentle care with slower walks, extra comfort, medication reminders if needed, and lots of love and companionship. 🐱 I also love caring for kittens and cats of all ages, including shy cats, senior cats, and cats that require oral medications or specialized care. I understand that every cat has a different personality, and I’m happy to provide anything from active playtime to quiet companionship. Over the years, I’ve provided pet sitting, overnight stays, dog walking, boarding, house sitting, and drop-in visits for family, friends, neighbors, and clients.

I love to make sure all animals feel comfortable with me. I never approach without letting them sniff me and make sure to always give space when needed. I am always gentle and quiet around more shy animals until I gain their trust.
About: Its not rocket science. I love animals and provide a lot of petting and physical love, and physical activity compared to the other pretenders. Grew up in Sweden, army veteran. When dogsitting I have a hobby, I play bridge at city hall in cornelius, so sometimes id be away for as much a 4.5 hrs. I can also not play... I can't have a pet at my place save for a few minutes. All I can say is, I'll play with your dogs more than ladies do!
About: I have cared for and loved pets of all kinds all of my life. Cats, dogs, goats, rabbits, lizards and a bird. I am responsible and respectful. With age comes dependability and maturity. Plus, animals love me. I'm retired so everyday is a Saturday. I travel in a converted Sprinter van, but only a few times a year. I'm available unless already booked. I'll be happy to take care of your dog in your home and walk them in/around your neighborhood. Do they like dog parks? That can be arranged, too.
“Ashley has been great with Kimba! She always keeps me updated with pictures and messages and Kimba always seems to be well taken care of when I get home from work. Would definitely recommend her for your dog/cats care in the future she does a awesome job!”


About: Hi! I’m Victoria :) , a lifelong pet lover with 15+ years of experience caring for furry friends, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet! Cats and dogs are my specialty, and I take pride in providing the personalized attention every pet deserves. Whether we’re enjoying a walk, playing, or simply relaxing together, my goal is to make your furry family member feel safe and right at home. Thank you for your consideration and I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I have full time availability during the week - great for when you have to go to work and need someone to check in!! On weekends, I have part time availability in the mornings & evenings. I love to create an open space that your pet is familiar with! Keeping the same routines and providing extra loving if they get anxious is key when they are around new people. Allowing them to sniff and get comfortable without pressuring them.

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 8 years old, and that early bond is what started my lifelong love for animals. I've always enjoyed caring for pets, and I've done a lot more dog sitting in recent years. I recently moved to the area, and while I don't have a full-time job yet, I have plenty of free time, which means I can give your pets real, consistent attention rather than squeezing visits into a busy schedule. My own cavapoo is staying with my mom for now, so caring for your pets would genuinely be a joy for me, not just a job. My scheduleis very open and flexible. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits, and I'm happy to adjust my routine to meet each pet's specific needs. Whatever you need, no matter how small or unusual it might seem, I don't mind doing it if it helps your fur baby feel at home. My goal is simple: I want your pets to feel comfortable with me, and I want you to feel comfortable too. That means I'll take things at their pace, never rushing or forcing interactions, and I'll keep you informed every step of the way so you always know what's happening with your furry family members.
About: Caring for children has been my career for over 15 years. Working in education, I know that trust isn't given, its earned through consistency, communication and genuine care. While my professional background is with children, the same qualities I bring to families everyday are exactly what I'll bring to your dog: patience, attention to detail and a calm caring presence. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy dog and have complete peace of mind knowing they were treated like one of my own. My schedule offers flexibility, which allows me to fit pet care into my week while giving each dog the attention they deserve. Some days I’m available earlier than others, and weekends are generally more open. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can fully commit before accepting a booking. When your dog is in my care, they’ll have my full attention, plenty of affection, and dependable care every step of the way. I know that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. Whether your dog is staying in my home or joining me for a walk, their safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep routines as consistent as possible, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming environment where your dog feels loved, secure, and right at home. No other pets in the home. Non-smoking home. Plenty of space for walks and play. Only one family’s dog(s) at a time

“Anamika is absolutely wonderful! She has cared for Roscoe three times now, and she truly treats him like her own fur baby. She is professional, dependable, and provides such a warm, family environment. Roscoe is always incredibly happy when he stays with her and he even recognizes her neighborhood and gets super excited as soon as we turn onto her street! He eats, plays, and sleeps as comfortably as if he were at home. Knowing Roscoe is happy, loved, and well cared for gives me such peace of mind whenever I travel. We highly recommend Anamika—she’s awesome!”

The fact that she loves and cares for her own dogs helped me to know she is an absolute DOG LOVER!! I would absolutely recommend Lisa for dog sitting and boarding.”
