“We had a marvelous meet and greet in which David stayed for a very long time to answer a lot of questions and hear about our animal crew. Which was much much appreciated. He arrived on time for our house stay. Was met by a very crazy dog. It was our first time leaving her overnight and she knew it and acted out. David was an absolute champion. Went above and beyond to get her calm down and assure us that everybody would be fine. Including our very old cat. Both of our crew were happy and the house was in great shape and we had a wonderful time. David sent pictures and updates and a Nice goodbye when he left. We were so happy we've already booked him for a week. We highly recommend David. Many thanks David for all you did.”
“Megan was a pleasure to meet and she spoke highly about the Rover service and helped answer questions I had, as this was my first time using. I Highly recommend, Megan and the Rover service. She sent photos and took great care of my ESS, Ghia. I will always request her first - and I was very happy with the Rover service too.”
“Can’t thank Sandy enough for taking such good care of my pups while I was gone. I get really nervous about new people watching them but after I saw Sandy interact with them I could go on my trip without constantly worrying & that means so much! Definitely booking again :)”
About: Hello my name is Courtney!! Let me share some things to you about me. I am hard of hearing person, having a dogs to care for bring the joy out of me. They know how to cheer you up. That all make me smile. It doesn’t matter what breeds, gender, or size to me. What matters to me is to make sure they are taking care of with full of love and care. I have 3 girls. Range from 12 to under 1 year old. I look forward to take care of your babies. On plus side I am deaf myself. Being disabled and unable to hear does not stop me loving animals. :) Right now I’m a full time mom with my youngest one. We pretty much stay home. Would love to get out of the house to see doggies. I can always make it work :) I have a full fenced yard where I can always play throwing toys, ball, even some splash of water spray if the dogs like water. There’s a small park around the corner that I can take them to. If it’s a client home I follow what client do to their pets :)
About: I began watching dogs in my neighborhood about two years ago and have LOVED it since. I do all breeds and sizes! I am capable of watching multiple dogs at once if needed! Despite me working part-time in Mount Dora and in Clermont, neighbors and I have always found a way to work around it, whether I come right before/right after a shift or just simply depending on their dog’s own capabilities. In Mount Dora, I am typically only gone for about a maximum of 5-6 hours, while Clermont may be a little over 8. When watching inside the homes of my clients, I ensure to keep attentive focus on the dog(s) at all times. I ALWAYS use a leash when letting them out unless it is already a fenced in area. On walks, I use caution and stay alert with other possible dogs walking. I try to keep distance if I know a dog is reactive by either moving to the other side of the street or simply turning and walking the other direction.
“Jennifer had a challenging sit with our cat and dog. We were gone for 8-9 days. She stayed with them and took on the challenges of our geriatric cat and reactive dog. She came to visit several times before our trip. It was important to her that things go well. Within several days, our dog was sleeping with her. She has a calm, kind, and trustworthy aura. Leaving our animals was going to be very stressful, but it wasn’t. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our pets were being taken well care of. Would and probably will use her again. Thank you so very much Jen.”
“Karrie went above and beyond her call of duty. I always call text and let er know when I am leaving and same when i get back. when she had not heard from me she text and did not get an answer. The air terrific in orland had been shut down and we were in a holding pattern due to the storm that was over Orlando. She went back to my home fed the babies, storming too bad to walk them at the time. Then she came back to walk them, and I had just gotten home. My babies were just as happy to see her as they were me. She loves my babies and treats them like they were her own. If you're looking for someone to trust and take care of your pets like you do, she is the one. I will not use anyone but her. I will reschedule my plans so that she takes care of my babies. I was very nervous at first, now no worries at all.”
“I am thrilled to share my positive experience with Linda for the second time! Once again, she exceeded my expectations while taking care of my fur-babies. Linda is incredibly attentive and truly understands my dog's needs. She provided regular updates, shared cute photos and videos that made my time away so much easier. It was clear that my dog felt comfortable and happy, which is all I could ask for. Her dedication to ensuring my fur-baby was well cared for means the world to me. I can't recommend Linda enough! I have already booked her two more times.”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I currently live on a farm with cows, pigs, chickens, cats, and my very sweet bloodhound/border collie mix dog. I’m currently in between jobs at the moment, so I have plenty of time and energy to devote to walking and playing with your pets! I strive to follow your regular routine(s) with your pets as closely as possible to make their time away from you less stressful on them.
About: I have taken care of and have had pets since I was a baby. I actually was born into a house that already had a dog. I have the most experience with dogs but I have also had, and have taken care of cats. I love to be interactive with pets, take them on walks, and give them lots of pets! I am a true animal lover through and through and I can’t wait to make a new furry friend. I have personally been a pet sitter for family & friends for many years but decided to try Rover to make some extra money. I work full-time in Lake County. I will service Lake, Marion & Citrus counties. If you’re local to my job I can break free on my lunch break to let your trusted companion outside. I am home in the evenings during the week and weekends I am open. I am looking to pet sit for others only. Please contact me about my rates if you have any questions-I am flexible! :) I’m not looking to sit pets in my home at this time but whatever safety protocols you have for your pet (fence, gates) I will ensure they are watched carefully. I will follow all care instructions to a T!! Your pet is my pet!
“Linda was amazing. Rocky loved her. We came home to a spotless house. Rocky ate for her, he normally doesn’t eat when his human dad is away. We were very happy with Linda’s care of Rocky.”
“Kaylynn was one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. She was able to dog sit on short notice. From the moment I met her, I felt confident that she would take excellent care of my 2 dogs. She kept me informed of how things were going which eased my anxiety about leaving our dogs. Our home was in immaculate condition when we returned and our dogs were very well care for. I will definitely rebook with KayLynn for any future needs!”

⸻ David did an amazing job caring for our pets and house sitting while we were away. He took excellent care of our dogs—one who is incontinent and another who had just had surgery and staples removed. He handled everything with patience and responsibility, gave our pup her meds as needed, and made sure all four of our dogs got their walks. He also looked after our cat and kept everything in order at the house. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such good hands. Highly recommend David!
David (who actually prefers the nickname "Jack" ) was absolutely phenomenal with our dogs! We have 2 small dogs, one-is very social but the second is very skittish and reluctant to be around people and typically hides in a corner somewhere until the person leaves. She was skittish & shy with Jack at first, but what a difference in just a short time! She was walking around him with her tail up & sleeping next to him on the living room chair! He was very patient and attentive with both of our dogs. Neither lacked for attention. Jack was very flexible for our needs & schedule. We had him stay inside our house for two entire days and was able to feel comfortable with him the entire time. He listened closely to what we expected and followed through without hesitation. He sent us a picture of our dogs and a text during the day to update us on our dogs while we were away to help aleve our worries being away from our babies. Even then, I still touched base with him during the day to check in and give him our updates and he was always quick to respond. I highly recommend Jack and would not hesitate to use him again! Thank you very much!
