“Samantha and her family gave my Riley lots of love and attention, even taking her to an event they went to!! She took her on walks and gave her lots of play time with another pup she watches during the week. I will definitely be booking again so Riley can get lots of loving when we go out of town!!”

“Angel is a fantastic sitter for my fur baby. She understands his needs and makes sure that my pet is well cared for, comfortable and happy. She really enjoys being with him, taking him for many walks and providing the best care possible so that his visit is fun and healthy. She is the best pet sitter I have ever met and would not trust anyone else with my pet.”
“Sonia took such good care of Tilly. She sent many photos and videos so I knew how she was doing. She went on a walk with other dog friends and was definetly spoiled. We will definetly be leaving Tilly with Sonia again.”

“Lauren was great. Comet adjusted well and had a great time playing with her golden retriever Colton. In fact I don't think he really wanted to leave when I picked him up lol. Thanks again for a great stay.”

About: I once had 13 cats I cared for. I now have a dog and a cat of my own. I enjoy spending time with animals. I can host up to 2 dogs a night in my home. I have a large yard they can play and do their business in. I have a crate they can use if needed or they can sleep on the couch or floor. If you prefer I can come to your home and sit with your animals, I would need to leave a few times a day to come home and care for my own pets. I can administer any needed medications. I have cared for sick animals in the past. Currently can work with my laptop anywhere there is an internet connection. Happy to sit with your pets or stop by for visits several times a day. If they are brought for boarding I can give them breaks as often as needed. I can crate your dog if needed at night. I can walk your dog. I have a large yard for your dog to play in.
“Mel was great, very friendly, and my dog Maze was very comfortable in her home. Her dog Maverick was fun playmate, they hit if off in a few minutes. Having a fenced in back yard for the dogs to run and play safely was a huge plus! We will definitely be rebooking when the need arises. Thanks Mel!”

About: Hi! I’m a veterinary technician with over two years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. Caring for animals isn’t just my job—it’s my passion. As a pet owner to three dogs and two cats, I understand how difficult it can be to leave your furry family members with someone else. That’s why I strive to provide the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own pets. My veterinary background allows me to confidently recognize signs of illness, administer medications when needed, and provide attentive care for pets with special needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is in experienced, caring hands. My schedule allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m available Monday through Friday before 8:00 AM and after 5:00 PM, making me a great option for early morning visits, evening walks, or overnight care. On weekends, I have open availability and can accommodate a variety of scheduling needs, whether it’s drop-in visits, dog walking, house sitting, or extended care. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible to ensure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. My pets are a huge part of my family, and I care for them with plenty of love, attention, and enrichment every day. Whether we’re playing, going for hikes, swimming, exploring new places, or spending time socializing, I make sure they stay happy, healthy, and fulfilled. I believe every pet is unique, and I will provide the same level of care and affection to your furry family member. Whether your pet enjoys curling up for cuddles on the couch or prefers long walks, playtime, and other high-energy activities, I’ll tailor their care to their individual personality and needs. Most importantly, I will always respect your wishes, your pet’s routine, and your home, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was in middle school (11 years ago). I have taken care of dogs, cats and even an axolotl once! I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities and I am willing to accommodate them. I have taken care of pets from a variety of ages from old dogs to freshly born kittens! My schedule is currently flexible and I stay home most days of the week. I am willing to doing weekends on occasion or if needed. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard with plants, giving pets a secure and enriching space to explore and play. I currently don't have any pets of my own — my sweet beagle passed away. So your pet will get my full, undivided attention while in my care. Every animal is different, and I want your pet to feel right at home: if you have specific routines, feeding instructions, or accommodations your pet needs, just let me know and I'll make sure to follow them closely.
“Andrea was very accommodating and responded quickly with my last minute same day booking. She welcomed my fur baby to her home like he was already part of her family. It was my first time booking on Rover and with Andrea, and I am pleasantly happy about her taking great care of my dog. My dog even became buddies with her dogs and that was nice. I found her to be a nice person when I met her and I am happy that I found her on Rover. I look forward to booking with Andrea again in the future and I would 100% recommend her. She is great to work with especially on last minute notice.”

“Gen and her family are incredibly kind, caring, and wonderful! I booked Layla with them for a week, and they took such great care of her. I felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands, and it was clear that she was well loved and cared for. I would definitely book with Gen again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy home for their dog!”


About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. At 67 years young, I have the patience, reliability, and genuine love that pets deserve. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, giving belly rubs, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I take that responsibility to heart. I’m home full time, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to stick to your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes regular walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply lots of love and cuddles I have a fenced in yard with a pool. For pets that do not know how to swim, I prefer to stick to just walks rather than time in the back yard to be sure they are safe.
“Mary is a sweetheart! I had a death in the family and she took care for my little one for a few days. I got daily updates on how he was doing. He was well taken care of with lots of play time and snuggles. I will be using her services in the future and I highly recommend her as a dog sitter 🙂”

About: I work as a teacher at a farm a few days a week and I work from home the rest of the week. I also am a homeschool mom so I am home mostly ! I consider myself a homebody and have the ideal setting to just be able to love on your dog all day every day. They won’t ever be lonely and they will be able to have all their needs met 24/7 I both work from home and on a farm as a teacher a few days a week. I am home mostly days of the week with the exception of stepping out to run errands if need be and for a few hours weekly to teach at a farm. We have a huge fenced in yard and the ideal situation for your dogs. We lost both of our dogs last year sadly and unfortunately due to cancer and not only do we miss having dogs, but our son greatly misses having dogs here as well. We are dog lovers and we can’t wait to have the opportunity to love on yours !!!
“Ace had a wonderful time with Maria M. Maria, thank you for taking such good care of Ace. Everytime I saw pictures he was smiling and that says a lot. I will definitely request you again. What a wonderful experience. Thank you Thank you Thank you!”

About: Animals have always been part of my family. I bring 30+ years of professional horse-training experience, along with years of working with dogs through training, fostering, and adoption. I earned my degree in Animal Science Equine Studies in 1986 and previously worked as a veterinary technician with large and small animals. Caring for my dog Sam through heart disease taught me how much careful medication timing and attention to individual needs matter. I can discuss your dog's medication routine before booking and follow agreed instructions. Your pup will receive patient, loving care tailored to their personality and needs. Caring for animals is part of my daily routine, from morning barn chores to meals, walks, yard time, and quiet companionship. I offer overnight care and dog daycare at my ranch. Before booking, we'll discuss your dog's routine, drop-off and pickup times, and any care needs so we can make sure the stay is a good fit. My home sits on 12 private acres with a secure fenced backyard. I share it with three friendly, spayed female dogs, so I welcome dogs who are comfortable with other dogs. A meet-and-greet helps us check that everyone is a good match. Guest dogs stay leashed on walks, with distance and pace tailored to their needs. During horse-feeding chores, they stay in the fenced backyard behind the barn, separate from the horses. Indoors, there are comfortable places to rest, including couches and dog beds. We'll discuss feeding, medications, and any special needs before the stay.
“Kim and her family was fantastic with my two boys. She was also very flexible with me as I was a lil extra in wanting to stop by and take them out since I was visiting my family in the area and couldn’t keep them with. The pups seemed very happy and entertained. I will definitely be back again.”

100% of sitters in Welaka can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Welaka home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Welaka.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Welaka sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
