“Annayah took such good care of our labradoodle while we were away for a week! We especially appreciated the responsiveness when booking as our original dog-sitting plans fell through just days before our trip. Our dog had never been away from us and he showed no signs of anxiety or stress when we picked him up, he got right back into routine at home. Would definitely book with Annayah again next time we have a chance to travel.”
“Lauren is awesome and knows how to take care of dogs. She took care of our buddy for two nights while we were away. She’s a police officer and trains K-9 unit dogs for Osceola County. Would definitely recommend.”
“Sharon provided a YUGE safe space for the pups to play - having a privacy fence surrounding her entire property! My pups loved it there and were safe, well cared for and, when I arrived were in the good company of a few other well behaved dogs. Drop off and pick up was easy and Sharon is a really nice person. Next trip to the area I'll surely engage Sharon to keep my doggos. Kudos to Sharon AND I fully recommend her to anyone wishing their pups a non-stressful stay while traveling.”
“Our cat, Penny was very well cared for by Carissa! He was happy keeping his same routine and Carissa was very willing to provide all he needed. I would not hesitate to use Carissa again!”
“We were happy to find Jolene as it was nice to know that our dog would have some cat and dog company whilst we were away. As an older boy traditional dog boarding wears him out. He just wants to nap in peace with a like minded companion. Upon meeting Jolene I felt confident that Sampson would be comfortable and well looked after. We enjoyed the photo updates provided during our absence. I believe Sammy dog enjoyed his time. Thank you. Jolene. It was lovely to meet you.”
“I was happy to intrust Carly with my pup. She was communicative and sent pics of my puppy everyday. She did an amazing job and I can tell she loves fur babies. Thank you Carly for taking care of Sadie!”
“Rachel was an awesome dog sitter for the weekend! We have never used rover before and were apprehensive with leaving Sadie with a stranger, but she made the experience fantastic. She provided regular updates and photos, and Sadie was as happy as can be, and got plenty of exercise and fun with Rachel's kids. We will absolutely be relying on Rachel again for dog sitting!”
“Fen was great! She sent multiple updates and photos of our dog Quincy and made sure Quincy was comfortable. Our dog has really bad separation anxiety but Fen made sure he got a lot of walks and was comfortable during his stay.”
“Anna took amazing care of Tango! He is 14.5 years and very anxious, when I picked him up he was calm and the picture of health. This is the first time I have left him with someone and it hasn't taken a day for him to adjust to being back home. What a difference Anna made in our Rover experience. Will book again and highly recommend!”
“Shelly took AMAZING care of our dog Bella. She kept us updated with messages and pictures every day, which put my mind at ease, since this was the first time leaving Bella in someone else's care. Thank you Shelly!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. As an adult, I have two dogs of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, as well as dogs with allergies, food sensitivities, and special dietary needs. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual routine, personality, and comfort level, and I’m happy to follow specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications, or other care needs. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m a stay-at-home mom and full-time online student, so I’m home for the majority of the day and have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I have open availability during both weekdays and weekends and can easily work walks, playtime, feeding, and potty breaks into my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own who are very different in breed, size, and age, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. My home has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time and play. For care in your home, I’m generally available on weekdays from 9:00 AM–1:30 PM while my three children are in school. For services provided in my home, my schedule is much more flexible. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs to help them feel safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through my own pets as well as helping family members. I currently have a chocolate Labrador Retriever and a Shiba Inu, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve also cared for my parents’ dogs, including one with diabetes that requires insulin injections. I’m experienced with administering insulin and understand how important it is to follow medication schedules and care instructions carefully. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just wants companionship and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, boarding, and pet care during most weekdays and weekends. I always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and will communicate clearly about my availability before confirming a booking. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I’ll take the time to follow your care instructions closely and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether we’re out on a walk or spending time together at home, I’ll always keep your pet’s safety in mind. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so you can expect regular updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, kindness, and the same attention I give my own dogs.
About: I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I am also open to providing care for cats. I am happy to assist with any needs your pet may have. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important pets are to their families, and I will treat your pets with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own. I am currently a full time student working in public school. I leave around 7am and I get off at 2:00/2:30pm Monday-Friday. I am available to walk or do drop ins after 2:30pm. If I am house sitting/dropping in I may have to arrive/leave sooner depending on how far you are from me. On the weekends I work from 6:50am-11:30am and 1pm-5pm. I have three dogs at home so if you are looking to board you will need to bring your dog to my residence to make sure they can be around my dogs. Your dog has to be able to stay in a crate for 4-6 hours while I’m a work. My grandparents will give them a bathroom break in the afternoon. I will follow your schedule, including feeding times, walks, and any required medications. I am committed to giving your pets attentive care and plenty of affection.

Josh was great with my pups! He was attentive, easy to communicate with, and made them feel right at home. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were comfortable and well taken care of while I was away. I really appreciate him taking such good care of them and would definitely will rebook on our next adventure! The meet and greet was a great idea and I'm glad he asked if we wanted to do that! Thank you so much!
Everything went great! My dog stayed for 3 days and was so happy. Communication was great, and I loved getting pictures of him enjoying his time with the other dogs. He looked very comfortable and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend them and book with them again! 🐶❤️
Daniel has taken care of my senior baby a few times with the last time being 30 days while I was out of the country. My baby has some health issues and Daniel made sure to give her all her medications as prescribed. He sent pictures and updates. She feels comfortable with Daniel and that gave me peace of mind being so far away. Daniel is friendly and kind and easy to work with.
Kristine made the whole experience easy and reassuring. We dropped our dogs off at her place, and she kept us updated with plenty of messages and photos while they were in her care. She was friendly, punctual, and fair, and we could tell our dogs were in good hands. We’d happily book with Kristine again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter!
Brandi is a genuinely caring and attentive pet-sitter! She accepted our pittie as a client, (most pet sitters won’t), and followed all my instructions to the letter. She communicated and sent pics throughout their time together. She gave Molly extra attention when she was anxious during thunderstorms. We feel confident in Brandi, as she works as veterinarian tech. But it’s really her kindness that won us over! We will definitely use her again!
Debra was the most awesome dog sitter imaginable. Our dog Salsa was comfortable with her from the start with very little separation anxiety, which made us feel so comfortable on our trip. Debra stayed in touch and sent pics so we knew Salsa was happy and adjusted. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Julia was great. We are Rover newbies and Julia was very helpful. Good communication while our dog Felix stayed with her and she provided frequent updates and pictures. Felix had such a good time he slept the day he came home :-) Will recommend Julia to anybody looking for somebody to look after their dog.
Digna and Joseph provided updates and were helpful to our anxious 9 year old that fears thunderstorms and a variety of sounds. Her anxiety is expressed by barking and running around. They were patient and understanding. Love that they are home with my aging pup. Digna is very expedient in her communication. Would definitely recommend!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
