“Ana and the staff were all so sweet and caring- I could not have asked for a better experience for my baby! This was the first time I have left my little Pomeranian, Nalla, and I was certainly nervous at first but right when I dropped her off my worries were immediately eased. The set up was wonderful and all of the staff were extremely competent and kind! I will certainly be returning with Nalla and would highly recommend Ana to everyone!”
2. Barbii M.
“My big pups always love staying with Barbii! If you want a peace of mind while you're away from your pets, Barbii and her assistants (Major and Loki) will make sure your babies will be happy and cared for!”
3. Brenda L.
“Brenda and her family provide exactly what I was hoping for. Instead of being home all day by herself, my dog is taken care of by kind dog lovers. She also gets to socialize with another small dog. I can tell my dog enjoys being there. She runs right up to Brenda to greet her when we arrive. And when I pick her up, she is not desperate to leave. Highly recommend.”
4. Mona B.
“Mona was amazing with our dog! Jones was with her at doggy day care for three days and every evening Jones came home happy and the perfect level of tired. Mona was kind, understanding and sent lots of pics. I will definitely use her services anytime we can get on her schedule! I highly recommend!”
5. Yendrek A.
“Yendrek is an excellent caregiver, he will do his job outstandingly and you will notice when you go pick your pet up. I was surprised by the body language I noticed in my puppy when I went pick him up. He was quiet and it seemed to me that he connected with Yendrek despite the short period of their interaction. Honestly, I felt that my dog was happy and comfortable which is a priority to us as pet owners. Yendrek said that he was happy to take care of my dog, that he took him on a walk several times a day and that he gave freedom to my pet to move around their apartment. It is not what he said only, I noticed this in my dog when I went pick him up. If you are traveling or working extra hours and need someone to take care of your puppy for some days, I would say that this is your best opportunity.”
6. Kathleen D.
“Dear Rover Team, I have known Kathy for nearly 15 years and I feel confident that I can highly recommend her to you. Kathy has been an animal lover her whole life and she understands their needs. She cares deeply for animals and goes the extra mile to make sure they are happy, safe, and healthy. You can trust Kathy with your pet because she has sound judgment, outstanding problem solving skills, and a loving heart. Whenever I have needed help with my pets, Kathy is there for me. I believe you can rely on her to handle any situation with your pet because she is knowledgeable, steady, and kind. Sincerely, Marilyn B.”

“Grace is awesome with our beagle! She always sends great pictures and spends lots of time with our favorite little guy.”
9. Brandon R.
“Brandon has been looking after my dog for 3 years (overnights at his house). He is our first choice dog-watcher, and has been available every time. We have no worries leaving Liberty with Brandon- we know she'll be well cared for. I love that Liberty is allowed on the couches and beds- it's like her home away from home! Brandon is great about sending pictures, and Liberty always looks happy and relaxed. His two dogs Tiki and Bourbon are well-socialized and adorable. I would recommend Brandon to anyone.”

16. Ashley T.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life! I currently have two dogs and a cat! I have experience with puppies/kittens and senior animals. I love bonding with any animal I meet and especially enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood. I’m extremely flexible and available last minute for the most part. I’m excited to have the privilege of working with you and your pets! I am currently a full time student. But my classes are online so I am very flexible. I live right here in downtown Gainesville and I can commute just about anywhere in town. I am local so I don’t do too much traveling for holidays so I will almost always be available during those times or on a whim! I have a fenced in yard for my dog but I also walk my dogs as well for enrichment and exercise so I am definitely ok with either option!

“Trinity was great. Flexible with me adjusting my schedule. She was very prompt with communication and sent lots of pics and updates through the day. On day 2 Oakley was excited to see her again!”
18. Darby E.
“Darby was wonderful! So accommodating and willing to watch our pup on late notice and adjust to very early morning drop off. She was a great communicator and our pup had so much fun with her and her lovely dog, they became best friends quickly! She was willing to put up with our crazy pup who is still young and learning a lot and she did so with grace and patience! Will be using again!”
19. Lauren H.
“Lauren is so great with our nervous dog and we are so happy to have found such a great dog handler and sitter. Our baby gets to play with other dogs and live her best. We’ve booked Lauren many times now and will continue to do so in the future - it is priceless knowing your baby is in great hands!”
