About: I’m a nature boy at heart, I love the outdoors and all sorts of adventures. From simple sidewalk trips around the block. To open field exploration that knows no bounds. When I am taking a pup for a walk it will always be a fun time. I’m available most days within minutes. Any question or concern regarding your pets care under my supervision can be answered. I’m very flexible with my schedule so I feel confident I’m a good fit for most good boys and girls out there who need a new buddy from time to time. Any rules and procedures that you lay out will be followed. Once I get comfortable with your pet I’ll treat them just like my own and provide anything I can to make sure they receive the best care while waiting for you to come home.
About: Hi! My name is Jada and I love caring for animals! Over 20 years experience, I’ve taken care of many family and friend’s little loved ones while they’re away. I’m experienced with giving medication, health conditions, specific diets and needs. I know the stress and worry you may feel when it comes to needing an extra set of hands to care for your animals, and finding the right fit! I would love to ease your mind and dedicate my time and effort to meet your pets’ needs! I look forward to helping you! Any questions please message me, thank you! I work varying hours during the week/weekends, so I work around those hours on here 🙂 I will update my schedule as often as I can for availability! I have an 11 year old dachshund mix named Boat. He was diagnosed with a heart condition a few years ago and has since required a special diet and activity limitations. I have a fenced in yard he goes out in and do 1-3 daily walks depending on his activity level and temperature outside. DOGS and CATS! I’m able to walk, play, pet, pet sit, feed, check in on, give medication, clean and replace potty pads or litter boxes, brush, bathe- whatever works best for you and your pets needs!

“Lisa did an amazing job with my babies! It’s not easy finding someone who can deal with a diabetic cat but she did great! She sent lots of pics and videos so I could see that they were well cared for. Even my shy cat warmed up to her right away. I will definitely be using Lisa again! Highly recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Westchase
Kelly is a true gem! We were a bit nervous about leaving our cat at home while we traveled but we found Kelly on Rover, asked her to stop by for an introductory visit and were convinced she would be a perfect fit. She kept us posted about her daily visits and took some great pictures of our cat 'in action'. We highly recommend Kelly if you are seeking a caring and capable pet sitter!
This is the third time Trinity has taken care of our cats, and as always, she is awesome! She is punctual, responsive and very loving to our pets. I highly recommend Trinity! We are very grateful to have met her through Rover and will definitely reach out again when we need cat-sitting services.
Without a doubt the best sitter we have ever had. When your skittish kitty cannot get enough rubs from day 1 it is clear that your sitter is an animal lover. Bethany's daily pictures spoke louder than words showing our 2 kitty's enjoying Bethany's rubs with her lying on the floor next to them. Our kitties are older with gastric issues and accompanied vomits, but Bethany assured we come home to a spotless home. We highly recommend Bethany to take care of your animal friend/s The only issue we foresee is that your pet/s might be sad when you return home and Bethany leaves.
Stephanie is punctual, caring, attentive and respectful of our home. She followed our care instructions. We received great photos and report after each visit. She has a calm and reassuring demeanor that our shy cat began to open up to her by the end of our vacation. It is not easy to welcome a stranger into our home but Stephanie exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!
Sherri did a wonderful job caring for our pets! She was such a lifesaver being able to help out at just a short notice. First time meeting her and I felt like our animals would be in good hands and they were! I recommend Sherri if you want a reliable and caring person to watch over your pets, 100%! :)
Donna was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while caring for our sweet kitty, Mimi. Not only did she shower her with love and attention, but she was also incredibly flexible and accommodating while we were dealing with a construction crew working in our home. Donna handled everything with kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. Her daily notes and photos were wonderful and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every update that Mimi was happy, comfortable, and truly loved. We had complete confidence knowing our kitty was in such caring hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family. Thank you, Donna, for taking such incredible care of Mimi!
We had a great experience with Gracie caring for our three cats. She was trustworthy, responsible, and very attentive throughout the entire stay. We appreciated the updates and could tell our cats were well cared for and comfortable while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such reliable hands. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

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.
