Doggy Day Care in 17th Street, Sarasota, FL

“SO MANY GOOD THINGS I COULD SAY!!! My boyfriend and I look at our two dogs, Hope (almost 2) and Zeus (3 months), like they are children. Our girl Hope can be an escape artist at times and is very active, so we have a collar for her with gps and tracking of her steps. With that being said, in the past I have not re-used some people off rover because Hope simply would not move the entire time!!! At Donnas, Hope and Zeus both ran and ran (after all I could tell). And had an absolute blast. Her yard is fenced in so no dog could get out, even our little lunatics. She knows so much about dogs I have never felt so confident with leaving our babies with someone before. Hope and Zeus will be back!! Truly a gem!”

“Cal loved his time at your house. I'll definitely rebook!”

“Denise was great with our dog, Milo! She communicated with us throughout the stay and sent pictures to keep us updated. You can tell that Denise loves animals and we felt that Milo was in good hands with her.”

“Leslie was so kind, warm and accommodating! My dog came back exhausted from having such a fun day! She updated me throughout the day with pictures and messages about how he was doing which I loved! We will definitely use Leslie again!”

“Callie took great care of our special needs pup. Our golden retriever has epilepsy and she was able to administer his medication properly 5 days in a row. She sent updates and was kind to us and our dog. We would definitely book with her again 😊”

“Harry had a fun and safe time with Cameron and his three goldens. He was walked,fed and we were provided with photos. Nice fenced yard for the dogs to play and the home was very dog proof. Harry and Murphy took a particular liking to each other. Thanks for the great care.”

“Franchesca was Amazing. She took my last minute request. She’s good with communication and sent me photos and updates. I definitely recommend her. Thanks Again, Franchesca :)”

“The most AMAZING doggy sitter! Tori is beyond attentive, caring, and nurturing to my puppy Dolly. She truly treats her as her own and updates me through the day with TONS of pictures and videos.”

“Jean has taken care of my Mutt Mota almost regularly. He never fails to give her the attention she so much desires and never fails to stay overnight to ensure she’s will taken care of!”

“Mindee has been caring for and walking dogs for many years. She’s comfortable with both large and small dogs, has trained puppies and watched senior dogs as well. I’d recommend her to anyone in need of pet care.”

“Rachel was awesome! We were in town for a business trip and she helped us out last minute so that we didn’t have to leave our pup in the hotel room by himself all day. She was very communicative and sent us picture updates throughout the day. Drover had a wonderful experience! Highly recommend.”

“Christal did a great job wearing my pup out! She took her for a walk at the park and to lunch. Loved how many pictures were sent! Will definitely be rebooking in future”

“Ashley was great! Our pup is only 4 months and I wasn’t sure how this was going to go. However, she came home tired every day which is a great sign! This morning we didn’t drop her off and she was waiting at the door- looks like she was hoping to go back! She will be back for sure. Thank you!”

“Deborah had been caring my special needs dog for a few months. I trust her to take him to the dog park, knowing that she watches him closely. I highly recommend her as a loving, warm, gentle and soft spoken person to care for Levi.”

“Finn had a great time with Lexi and Honey?? She was super kind and welcoming, and had a great space for the pups to play and relax…we will def be back!! Thank you Lexi!!”

“Buckshot lovesssss Tallie! He’s always so excited to be there. He literally jumps out of the car and bolts to her when we arrive. She’s hands down amazing. Aways my number one favorite!”

About: I have a gentle, caring, kind, & patient demeanor. Since it’s just me, have no pets of my own, & live in a place with a fenced-in backyard, my house is ideal for boarding, and I love any opportunity to housesit! I have a lot of love to give, so please be assured that your pet will receive plenty of affection & attention!! I work from home, so I’ll be here with your dog the entire time. I enjoy any opportunity to walk dogs as it gets me out more! I always take them to the big park behind my street, that’s ideal for walking, as well as a bigger neighborhood nearby. My house has a screened-in patio/porch area in the front, which I leave the door open to all day, so dogs can go in & out. Additionally I leave the door to the backyard open all day, so that they can come in & out as they please. I find dogs love it ! they can be in the house, in the front screened in patio watching birds, or also outside in the backyard if they want. I absolutely love any opportunity to host dogs & am familiar with several different types of breeds & mannerisms, as well as have experience administering meds if needed. I work from home & have a flexible schedule, so my availability is pretty open during the weekdays. Weekends are often open availability also, as I appreciate being in the home & being able to be present with your pet. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or last-minute vacation needs! I keep my house very clean, always vacuum/mop/disinfect after each pet I take in. Im a non-smoker, live alone, & have no pets of my own. Please always feel free to contact me with any questions you may have! I can only take in one dog at a time in my home for boarding, but I can house-sit up to 3 dogs at a time. I happily provide plenty of attention, love, & playtime. I love any opportunity to take them out on walks, as I live near a park & across from Indian beach/Sapphire shores neighborhood, which is a nice walking neighborhood. In the occasion that I may need to leave the home for an hour or so, I do appreciate when owners are able to bring a crate for their dog.

“Carol (my mom) is truly the most loving, kind, selfless & thoughtful person you will meet. She has a natural way about her that puts both people and animals at ease. She has immense love for every living being and you can feel it in her presence. Growing up, my mom treated our cats like they were our siblings, and she was always the first to get a call whenever friends or neighbors were going out of town and needed dog-sitting coverage. I’m so happy that Rover is giving her the opportunity to care for pets again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life. From my families, to my neighbors and to my friends, they have all asked me for help. I am working part time right now, and I set my own schedule. So, I can work any time, any place. Let me know what works best for you. I always try to treat the animal with the upmost respect. They are living creatures and deserve the best treatment possible. I am very friendly to them and let them build trust with me first.

“Thank you, Tamara for being so kind, understanding, and communicative while our boys stayed with you! I appreciated the updates and photos so much. We look forward to booking another service with you soon!”
