Briana S. is an excellent Rover drop-in. Our 3 small dogs sat in her lap and gave her kisses. She sent photos of her visit to us and we felt assured our pups were getting the care and attention we asked for. We won't hesitate to use Rover/Briana again.

Cyd Marie was awesome! This is our first time using Rover for our cats, and she has made it so easy. She communicated well with us, and was also sure to update us on the wellbeing. There was a small situation at our house while we were gone, and she was very willing to help out as much as she could, which we really appreciate. Our two cats are happy and fed, and we look forward to working with her again!

Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)

April was amazing. Very professional. Took care of any changes we had immediately. Our Animal kingdom loved her, and she loved taking care of them. She was always on time for her drop-ins and she checked in and checked out perfectly. She let us know of any issues, a and took care of them immediately. Such a pleasure knowing that we could relax knowing our pets would be well cared for. We were able to concentrate on our family. We will most definitely book with her again.

Tyler is an awesome pet caregiver! He has been doing drop in visits for our new puppy for the last few weeks and has been very helpful. He is trustworthy, has excellent communication, and goes above and beyond to make sure our pup is taken care of. He even gives our other dog love too while he’s there. He gives feedback after every visit and I can tell he is invested in our dogs happiness. Him and his wife, Sierra, are our first choice for a pet sitter due to each experience being great! I would highly recommend Tyler for any of your pet service needs!

About: I have helped old dogs in the water, making sure they can swim, or at least tread water, while ensuring they stay afloat. I have taken care of dogs from year-old puppies, to old ones who need a little assistance getting up and down. I am always ready to go on a nice long walk, or just stay in and relax. I am available for boarding daily, with little notice necessary. I am at home full-time, and am ready and able to take care of your open whenever needed. I have a yard with no fence, and live on a lake with a dock. I do have 2 cats, but are very used to larger animals, and friendly with dogs. They can be restricted if necessary. I can easily crate your dog, if and when it is needed. I am also very good with cats, and have no issues if they get nervous or frightened.

Tracy is a dog lover. She was my groomer for over 20 years and went through the deaths of 3 of my fur babies and cried with me. She would play with them and bring toys and treats, the dogs loved her. Bella is the last dog she cared for and Bella adored her. I would entrust Tracy with Bella's care when I would go on vacation. Tracy would allow Bella to sleep with her and treated her like her own. I highly recommend Tracy to care for pets...you will be pleased.

About: I have always been an animal lover and I’ve had dogs and other animals almost my entire life. I’ve personally had and cared for dogs of all sizes from a tiny teacup poodle (6lbs) to a huge labradane (125lbs) as well as all ages of dogs newborn-16 yo! I’m currently a student at Florida Southern College, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am also an Army ROTC cadet at Florida Southern, so walking my dogs and yours is a great way for me to stay active! Safety is always my #1 priority, I will always lookout for the wellbeing of your dog based on their specific needs. Each dog is unique and has their own routine which is important for me to follow to the best of my ability.

I’m so glad we chose Abigail to cat sit! She did such a great job and our cat loved her!! He’s usually pretty shy and hides, but he was out with her every day. We will definitely have Abigail cat sit next time we’re out of town!

Your pets will definitely be in good hands with Mickey. I have worked at SPCA Florida for 11 years and therefore tend to have special needs dogs at home. She has walked several of my dogs over the years. Mickey has also volunteered at SPCA Florida in many different capacities including dog walking, cleaning, off site adoptions, fundraising events, food assistance, and helping to transport both dogs and cats. In all that she has done for me, she gets a 5 star review!
