“Anas and Tate were amazing with our doodle puppy, Toni, during our trip to Gainesville for UF graduation. After a last-minute cancellation from our original sitter, we were stressed—but meeting Anas put us completely at ease. He was kind, professional, and kept us updated with photos and videos. Toni clearly had a great time! We’re so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter.”

“Alexander and Josephine were amazing! This was our first time using Rover and they made the experience so easy and reassuring. They sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which we really appreciated. They were also incredibly communicative and accommodating when we had a change in plans, and they handled everything professionally and thoughtfully, which made us feel completely comfortable. When our return flight was delayed, they were very flexible with pickup as well. Josie clearly had so much fun with them and was very well cared for. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. We will absolutely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for wonderful sitters.”

About: I’ve been a dog-mom for the past 14 years. Recently, our dog crossed over the rainbow bridge and we want to love on some dogs the way our dog was loved. My husband and I work from home and often take care of our friends’ dogs. We have cared for puppies and senior dogs alike for many years. We are active and enjoy exercising and playing outside with dogs or just relaxing at home, depending on your pet’s needs. Both online teachers, we are organized and routine-oriented, and offer flexibility with scheduling. We currently do not have children or other animals in our home. We will take care of your dog as if it were our own. We are experienced in administering medicine and supplements as-needed. We will only watch one family’s dog(s) at a time to ensure your baby(ies) gets the attention he or she deserves. We have relied on Rover for many years in the past with our own dog so we understand the desire to feel comfortable with whom you leave your animal while you’re away. We hope you’ll choose us for your dog-sitting needs! Working from home, we have flexible schedules for pick-up and drop-off. We are able to spend lots of quality time with your pup! We have a neighborhood for walking dogs and live just a few miles from a dog park. We will ensure your dog gets the exercise or relaxation he or she needs.

“Mona was awesome with Oreo. He is a laid back kind of dog and she let him lay in the yard or in the house. She kept me up to date and sent pictures every day. He had such a great time, that when I came to pick him up, he hesitated a little. That is the sign of a good dog sitter. Thanks for taking such good care of Oreo.”

“Joshua and Lesley exceeded our expectations. This is the first time we’ve tried pet sitting outside of a boarding. As a family with a very loving but energetic dog we were skeptical if someone would give our pet the care and patience he needs. Joshua and Lesley put our minds at ease since the first day we met them. They are passionately driven professionals and have gained our trust for future sitting. Quick response times, regular updates and lots of pictures. This is the team to get. Your dog will love them.”

“Mohini is such a great sitter! She booked me even though it was last minute, and I got pictures/videos and updates everyday. Finnegan can be shy and was sad when I left him but she took the time to comfort him and I can tell he connected with her. On top of a beautiful and spacious home, she was really educated on doggie care. What I didn’t expect was Mohini to make me a handmade keychain of a dog that I will cherish forever! Thank you so so much!!!”

About: Well-cared for pets can truly make for a person's best friend. As a former pet store manager, lifelong pet owner, and person who cares, I've had the opportunity to work with critters of all backgrounds and ages. Lots of experience with senior animals across a range of challenges. I work out of the house most days from 7am-5pm, but my wife is home most days during the week with the exception of Thursday and Friday. It's important for a pet owner to feel comfortable and confident in the person trusted with their pets safety and well being. As such, especially when in someone else's home, the best practice is to listen! Owners know their pet better than anyone, so it's important not to assume that we as caregivers always know what's best. Within our home, we have a large yard with diverse terrain and are off a series on low-traffic streets. Animals that get along will generally have run of the interior and when applicable to owner preferences, access to exterior. For those who have animals with a pre-disposition towards escape, we also offer a complimentary air tag tracker. This way you can rest assured your pet can be located in the case of an emergency.

“Kelsey was excellent! Very kind, great communication, and very accommodating. She is a real pro and took great care of my cat sending me pictures of him throughout his stay. He is not well socialized with the other cats, despite this Kelsey was able to provide him the space and attention to enjoy his stay! I would highly recommend her, you can rest assured your pet is in good hands with Kelsey!”
