“Stephanie was amazing with my girls. She took care of them. Sent a ton of pictures and went above and beyond with their care. I highly recommend using Stephanie for your fur babies.”

“10/10 for another stay with Stephanie! I got so many updates and pictures of my sweet babies while away! She went above and beyond! Always made sure they had fresh food and water and ample love!! Even did laundry before she left! Cannot recommend Stephanie enough! If you are looking for someone to not only care for your animals but also your home - book with Stephanie!”

“Absolutely phenomenal job Lydia and Emmitt watching our two dogs while we were away. Not only did they take care of our pups, but had to deal with our AC going out the 2nd day we were gone. They handled it in stride, all the while keeping us updated with pictures, walks, and coming home to a clean house and well taken care of doggos was more than we could of asked for. Highly recommend them for your pets needs!”

“Jason was so great with both dogs. One dog is so scared.. barks, nips. Jason was patient and caring, and soon they were buddies. Jason goes above and keeps house and yard clean. We’ll definitely call on Jason again.”

“Taylor and Bruno were fantastic taking care of my cat Shadow. He was happy and well taken care of. Shadow gets stressed when I go away and usually winds up with a bladder infection but Taylor took such great care of him that he had no infection and was calm and stress free. I highly recommend them to watch your fur baby’s.”

“Mary is wonderful. We have five pets, 3 cats, a dog and even a parrot - all with different needs and personalities. I appreciate her attention to detail and desire to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. She is kind, respectful of our home and a true animal lover. I have peace of mind that our animals are in good hands with her. We look forward to having her sit for our babies again in the near future.”
“It was a pleasure meeting David. We felt very comfortable leaving our somewhat high energy young german shepherd with him. He's not a super friendly dog with people but David was cool with that and won him over. Highly recommended!”

“Alyssa was incredibly communicative and loving to our pup, and when we returned, the house was just as we left it. It’s so special to know your baby is being so well taken care of. Will definitely rebook.”

About: I worked at a dog daycare as a Canine Coach and Lead for almost two years, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels in a fast-paced environment. I also have over 15 years of personal pet care experience, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. As a USF student with an active lifestyle, I enjoy keeping dogs engaged through walks, playtime, and attention while also making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means helping energetic puppies burn off energy or giving older dogs a calmer, more relaxed experience. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone, and I always treat every dog like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, especially over summer break while I’m home from USF. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, so dog walking, playtime, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing throughout the week. I do have a few trips planned during the summer, but I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings when I know I can fully dedicate my time and attention to each pet. Reliability and communication are very important to me, and I want pet owners to feel confident their dogs are in good hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while keeping the pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, or any special care needs. I have experience working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels from my time working at a dog daycare, so I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and reading animal behavior. I also believe communication and trust are extremely important, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for while they’re away.
“Christine was great with our two pups. She was punctual and treated Gracie and Steve as her own. She always sent us pics and text messages. We would hire Christine again. What a great sitter she was. Hire her you won’t be disappointed”

“Doug is such a caring person. He took amazing care of our dog and house for more than a week. Our dog absolutely loved him. Moreover he took care of our plants and fish. He also did a very beautiful sketch of our dog. He is so talented! We are highly recommending him!”

“I immediately felt at ease when I met Samouila. It’s difficult to find someone you’re comfortable taking care of your dogs, nevermind staying in your home! But I left feeling completely confident that my dogs and my home was safe. Highly recommended!!”

“Victoria was amazing! She went above and beyond taking care of care our pets, had great communication and sent many adorable pics. Would love to use her again in the future.”

“Hailee did a great job with our two dogs and cat while we were gone for almost a week. She responded to messages and kept me updated when I checked in. One of my neighbors met her outside with our dogs and said she could tell my babies loved Hailee which just makes my heart happy. When we returned, our house was just as I left it. Thank you for being there for us and our family on pretty short notice when our other sitter fell through. I think we ended up with exactly who we were supposed to.”

“Peyton was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier. Our dog Charlie is over 15 and blind, so requires some extra attention and someone to stay at our house. Peyton took great care of both Charlie and our home. She provided multiple updates and photos throughout each day which we really appreciated. Highly recommended!”

“Alexandra was a good communicator, punctual and above all kind and loving with my dogs. She sent lots of updates with photos and left the house clean. I will definitely hope to use her services again.”
Woodland Villas pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hi Megan!! I had a fantastic experience with you! 😍 This was my first time with a Dogsitter and I could not have found a better one. I went on a trip with my husband and let my two Weimaraners with her for several days and I felt so at ease. She was great with updates and got the best photos we have of the dogs so far!! I will absolutely book her again on next trips as now we have found our Girl! Thank you, Megan and we will see you soon! 💕💕

Melissa was amazing while we were out of town! Our pups need eyedrops twice a day and she notified us after every dose so that we knew they were staying on schedule. Loved the frequent photos and updates! Our return flight was majorly delayed and she was so helpful through that as well! We will absolutely use her services in the future!

We love Mason! He was absolutely amazing with our dogs. One of our pups is a feisty Chihuahua, and somehow Mason had him wrapped around his finger in no time! He was great about providing updates and keeping both dogs on their regular schedule while we were away for an extended weekend, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would definitely book Mason again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
