House Sitting in Bellevue Terrace, Sarasota, FL

“We recently moved to Sarasota and needed to find a dog sitter we felt comfortable with. We knew immediately that Kim was that special person and our pups love her. She is everything you would hope for and then some! We even had an emergency at our home while she was staying and she immediately jumped into action to mitigate any further damage to our home. She is amazing!”

“Victoria was amazing with our dog while we were gone. Our older dog unfortunately passes away a week before we left town and we couldn’t change our plans so we were so worried about our younger dog. Victoria gave her lots of love and attention and made sure she was kept occupied a lot so she didn’t get sad. She even brought her dogs over to play with her and brought them to our dog park. We couldn’t have been more grateful to her for taking such good care of our baby. We would recommend her 100%”

“Delia was fabulous and truly went above and beyond for our fur babies (1 lab and 2 cats). She was flexible, responsive, and sent updates regularly. Most importantly, my dog, Macy absolutely loved spending time with her!! I could see all the love come through in the pictures that were sent during the week we were traveling. Thank you, Delia! We cannot wait to work with you again. ❤️”

About: I’ve had cats growing up and have pet sat big doggies, kitties, bunnies, chickens, and more! I’m so excited to show your fur babies some love! I am currently working as an acting apprentice at a local theatre. My schedule changes week to week so I can have flexibility in times! I aim to make your furry friends feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I’m happy to give them water, food, pets, or whatever else they are needing.

“Extremely grateful for Carolina. Worked around my schedule last minute to watch my dog in my house for a week. Dependable, responsible, and trustworthy. Added bonus of also being very communicative. Highly recommend”

“We can highly recommend Jill after she stayed with our rambunctious terrier for six days! He loved her! She took him on long walks and gave him lots of love and attention. Jill was great at communicating with us and was so understanding when a problem came up on our end. She took great care of our home and left it spotless!”

About: I was the proud dog mama of two adopted dogs with medical issues. I know how tough it is to go out of town and find someone responsible to follow medication schedule or make a nervous dog feel at ease. I am patient, responsible and never met a dog/car i didn't love. Your babies are in good hands I have a lot of freedom with my current job in which I have 3 day weekends to play with your beloved puppies and/or cats. I will abide strictly by owners rules for their babies, ie, medicine, walks, sleep in the bed and extra play time! I'm here to make sure your pet is safe and loved!

“I can not say enough great things about Libah. She made my trip so much better because I had no worries about leaving her with my boy Journey. She provided daily pictures and messages. Some days there were multiple communications. She was absoluty great. I would without a doubt, would without hesitation use her again. Trust me if you are looking for a sitter, she is the one you should go to!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Erin took amazing care of our two golden retrievers while keeping our home spotless. She was punctual, organized, and thoughtful in every way — from brushing the dogs and vacuuming up their fur to sending just the right number of photo updates so we always felt connected without being overwhelmed. Our pups clearly adored her and were relaxed and happy when we got home. It’s such a relief knowing they were loved and well cared for. We’d welcome Erin back anytime and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

About: I have had dogs for 11 years and have been volunteering weekly at my local humane society since March of 2025. My chihuahua is a senior and my other dog I have had since she was a puppy so I understand the difference of care dogs require at all stages of life. I'm currently working part time and in college full time so I am free on weekends to hang out with your adorable doggies! I am working on revamping my schedule so I can eventually be free during the week for your pets. We will be having lots of snuggle time and playtime in your home. If just relaxing inside, we may watch Bluey together. I will be taking pictures of your pets to later send to you of the fun we are having. I treat all dogs as if they were my child so they will be loved and cared for while you are gone.

About: I have provided pet care services to dogs and cats of all ages and needs. From walking the neighbors dogs to watching their cats at night, I am ready for whatever care your animal needs. I am also equipped from the personal care of the dogs and cats my family and I rescued from baby to senior. I can’t wait to meet your pets and make them feel at home! I generally work 9-6 weekdays but my schedule fluctuates week to week and is flexible on weekends. I am happy to provide care before and after my work day. Let’s find a time! I will provide a safe environment in the home for the pets maintaining whatever feeding and bathroom schedule they are on. I love playing with animals and just keeping them company :).

“Kailea was amazing and sweet with our girls. She made sure to occupy their time with walks and snuggles. She had great communication and asked questions when needed. You can tell she has a big heart and cares. We will be asking her to watch the girls again.”

“Fabrice was absolutely great for our short trip out of town! The pups loved him, he was punctual and in regular communication, and was very personable and kind. The house was better than when we left, when we returned! We look forward to using him again for future travels and would strongly recommend anyone considering his services!”

“Ruth was amazing with our dog and cat. She was prompt and very communicative throughout the visit. Our dog required eye drops and medicine and she was able to administer them with no issues. She also cleaned up after the pets and ensured our sheets were clean and ready for us when we came back home on a late flight. Lastly, she even coaxed our very shy cat out from hiding! We appreciate her professionalism and taking such great care of our pets!”

About: I've been pet sitting privately for over seven years and added energy healing (BioEnergetic Synchronization Technique) to my repertoire last year. You can read a few testimonials on my site and I'd be happy to share more of my glowing reviews or put you in touch with one of my regulars! Animals take to me very quickly, and I absolutely adore them! I have many regulars who reach out to me before anyone else because they feel complete peace of mind when I am with their pets. I know how important that is and love to provide that with an abundance of photos and updates. I have done BEST energy healing with several animals this year, curing digestive issues and easing separation anxiety as well as other emotional and physical issues. I specialize with past trauma! I signed up here with Rover a few years ago but due to a tech glitch, my profile was inactive. It is live now and I can't wait to take excellent care of your pets and home! I only do live-in work at this time because it is better for the animals. I'm a writer, life coach and energy healer and I mostly do that remotely, so I provide lots of time and companionship as well as love. I stick to whatever schedule and routines the animals are already used to, unless otherwise requested. I am very sensitive to animals' needs and catch on very quickly if anything isn't right with them.

“We were away for 10 days, and Stephanie stayed at our home to care for our dog, Lexington. She was thorough, reliable, and had excellent communication—sending daily photos and updates. Lexington was so happy and well cared for, and our home was in perfect condition when we returned. We can’t recommend Stephanie enough!”

About: Growing up, I always had pets: dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, fish, guinea pigs, and birds. I loved animals, and I still do. My home is very clean, not just for myself but for them as well. Pets have always been a soft spot for me, and I make time for them every day. I can’t remember a time without furry friends in my home! I’m observant and attentive to every pet’s personality. I make sure they feel comfortable in their favorite spots, whether it’s their bed or a special corner in your home. I follow all instructions carefully from meals and treats to medications and routines to give your pet the care they deserve.

“Ashlee was a wonderful dog/house sitter for my two dogs, Sherman and Maggie. She checked in everyday with updates and went above and beyond to ensure we came home to a clean house and happy pups after our trip. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been around many different breeds and personalities of dogs since I was a baby because my family has always been involved in rescuing animals. This experience has given me a deep understanding of what each pet needs. I graduated from high school in May 2025 and completed technical college in October 2025, specializing in automotive technology. I’ve always loved working with my hands, whether I’m fixing up my truck or taking on a new project. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, where I feel most at home and energized. For the past four years, I’ve worked closely with kids, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to different personalities and needs. While I’ve loved that experience, I’m ready to explore new paths that challenge me in different ways and allow me to expand my abilities. I’ve spent my whole life around rescue pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, and other animals. I understand that every pet needs time to adjust to new people, so I always respect their space and let them warm up at their own pace. I make sure each pet gets the right amount of attention, whether that means going for a walk, playing, or just relaxing and keeping them company. When I care for pets at the client’s home, if there is a fenced yard, I enjoy spending time outside with them—sitting, playing, and simply being outdoors. Some pet owners do not have yards or prefer walks, which works perfectly for me because I love being outdoors and staying active. I also make detailed notes about each pet’s daily routine to help them feel comfortable and get used to me as their new caregiver. I drive a lifted vehicle and always bring doggie stairs to help any pets that can’t quite make the jump up. I also keep the doggie stairs handy in case of emergencies or if pet parents ask me to take their pets on a car ride.
