About: I really treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to get to know their routines, what makes them feel safe, and what brings them joy—whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or just some quiet company. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I also recently raised and trained a puppy in the last 4 years. I am pretty flexible for the most part! I work a remote job so its easy for me to be here and there. Just really depends on your needs. It really just depends on what the owner prefers! I am all about sticking to routine to keep the pups happy and relaxed. I follow instructions very closely.
“Joy and Casey were AWESOME!!! They took such great care of my babies! Joy sent me updates the entire time, including pics and videos! I was very nervous to leave my babies with “strangers” but they made it very comfortable for me, and the dogs clearly love them both!! I will for sure be using Joy again.”
About: I have been around dogs and pets my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for animals of all ages and personalities. For the past four years, I have owned and cared for my French Bulldog, which has given me hands-on experience with daily care routines, attention to health needs, exercise, feeding schedules, and providing a loving, safe environment. In addition to caring for my own dog, I have frequently pet sat for friends and family members, giving me experience with different breeds, temperaments, and care styles. What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and ability to make pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I understand the importance of communication, consistency, and treating every pet like family. I am also attentive to the needs of both younger pets who require energy and structure, as well as senior dogs who may need extra patience, gentleness, and routine-focused care. I am retired and able to pet sit on almost any day of the week during daylight hours. I am open to walks throughout the day and overnight sitting in the right situation. I have a condo and regularly take my dog on walks throughout the complex. I walk her around the lake. She enjoys being outside and interacting with other dogs.
About: I have cared for 6 of my own dogs over the years, and I have cared for a number of other pets in my neighborhood with love! I have a part time job currently, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! There are a few weekends with limited availability, but I am remaining local, so I will be near to care for your pet! I make sure all the pets needs are taken care of, including food, water, potty, exercise and even occasional treats and cuddles! I love and care for animals so much, and I will treat your pet as my own!
About: I may be new to the Rover community but I’ve had dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 a golden retriever and a mini Aussie. I pet sit for many family members and friends in the neighborhood including both cats and dogs. I would love to get to know your furry friends! I currently am a college student home for the summer so I am free whenever to pet sit/pet walk. This is literally my dream job. I am willing to do anything that the owner needs for their pet. I love dogs and am very willing to do anything needed in your home.
“Layla was awesome, probably one of the best sitters we've had. You could tell Diesel had so much fun with her stay, with all the pictures and videos she updated us with. Would highly recommend and do it again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a little girl. They have always been part of my life, and I never had any complaints. I’ve had cats, dogs, lizards, turtles, etc! everyone around me knows my love for animals and asks me questions about their own pets if they don’t know something. My dream is to have a huge farm filled with a bunch of animals. Animals will always be part of who i am :) I currently have a full time job from Tues-Sat so I am available mornings those days, Sunday and Monday all day to care for your babies :) I always treat peoples pets as if they were my own, giving them the care they need if it’s food, cuddles, or walks! whatever the precious pet needs!
About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner for 10 years, I’m now embarking on a new chapter after 24 wonderful years in Chicago. Following a long career in advertising sales, I’m seeking a slower-paced, more fulfilling path — one that lets me combine my reliability with my love for animals. At 49, I bring maturity, responsibility, and genuine care to every pup I watch, ensuring your they are looked after as if they were my own. Also, the doodle you see in some pics is my amazingly chill, gets along with every living thing, sidekick Lambeau. So please note your dog(s) must be okay with other dogs. I'm currently taking some time off and won't be going back to remote work until the fall '26, at the earliest. So I'm very flexible with my time at the moment. I live in an apartment complex (2 bed / 2 bath) with a huge unfenced grassy area off my lanai, that Lambeau and I call our own backyard. I also live across the street from John Chesnut park, in the Tarpon Woods area so Lambeau and I spend lots of time at that huge dog park and/or exploring the various trails. So if you're open to that as well, I'll gladly take your pup(s) over there for some adventures.
About: I’ve loved and taken care of all kinds of pets for as long as I can remember. Family and friends often relied on me to check in and board pets while they were away. I have experience with cats, dogs (high drive breeds like Belgian Tervuren), and even reptiles! I’m currently available full-time for pet care, so I’ll have plenty of time to look after and focus on every pet! I’m available for boards Friday- Monday, and pick-ups/drop-offs after 4:30 pm. I have a fenced in patio and one friendly dog to keep your pet company, or separate if needed! There are many local parks I love to spend time at and a pool for pets to enjoy! Kitties will have their own safe and separate room for their enjoyment! I have a designated area for reptiles to accommodate enclosures and equipment. Every animal in my care will have their own safe place and care guide put together to ensure each member of your family is taken care of with all the love, effort, and attention they would receive at home.
“Stephanie did a great job taking care of our senior dog and our home while we were away. She provided updates and photos throughout her stay. I highly recommend Stephanie to take care of your fur baby and home.”
“Hailee house sat with our dog who has separation anxiety. Meaning she couldn’t leave the house. Not ideal for sure. This is the first time we had used a house sitter and we were a bit nervous. Everything went perfectly! We are so thankful for Hailee and will definitely use her again. Thank-you Hailee 🐕”
“First time using Rover and we hit the jackpot with Lily. She was fabulous! One of our dogs got ill and she handled his problems with flexibility and care. The dogs were fine when we came home after a week of travel and the house was spotless despite the many dog accidents we know took place. So sorry Lily had to endure what she did. She truly was awesome! We’ve already booked her again.”
“Laurel was beyond amazing with my 2 year old Pitbull name Hustle. She kept me updated every step of the way and made me feel like I never left him. I highly recommend Laurel to anyone that is in the need of a dog sitter for any type of dog. 5 stars and I will definitely will request again in the near future. Thank you so much!”
“Bethany was fantastic! She took care of Toby like he is her own dog. Toby takes medication twice a day and she administered his medication. She is reliable, responsible, thoughtful, patient and kind. We will definitely book her again.”
Westchase pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time booking with Rover and with Kristy. We booked her for over a week of overnight stays and she was incredibly compassionate and kind to our very shy & timid cat. We felt very secure being out of town knowing Kristy was at the house taking caring of it and our cat as if it was here own. Highly recommend.
This was our second time having Rylie look after our two greyhounds and once again she did a great job. The dogs clearly love her and she takes exceptional care of them. We also came home to a clean home and she had even washed the bed sheets and towels and put the new sheets on the bed ready for us to collapse into as soon as we got home! We very much appreciate the great care Rylie takes of our dogs and home and look forward to booking her again in the future!
Christine is always great with Cole - She did a great job with staying overnight with him. It was the first time we have left him since we adopted him. I was not worried at all while we were away and appreciate all Christine did to take the best care of our sweet Cole.
I had an unexpected emergency and had to fly out of town at the last minute, and she truly came to the rescue. She was incredibly attentive to my dog, Charlie, and kept me updated the entire time. It was clear he was comfortable and having fun while she was with him. I came home to a happy, relaxed puppy, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help during a stressful situation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
AnneMarie & Elyse did an excellent job! This was my first time to use Rover and have someone house sit and they put my mind at ease from the start. AnneMarie went above and beyond the call of duty. My dog and house were found in excellent condition upon my return home. I would definitely use them again if they were not returning to school.
Tania is wonderful in every way. Communication with me was always detailed and prompt and her care for Lucca was so loving. It’s obvious she is a doggie mom and that she truly enjoyed getting to know Lucca and spending time with him. I felt relaxed during my entire vacation and will definitely be using her in the future.
