About: I offer a safe and fun place for your dog(s) to visit while you’re away. No meet and greets are required if I can accommodate your booking request, however, if you prefer to have a meet and greet prior to making a booking for boarding, I ask that you please book a drop-in visit so that I can get to know your pup 😊 I have always had a dog growing up. Your pupster will be in loving hands with our family! Traveling? I have weekends available. If you need weekday service let’s talk to see if I can accommodate you and your pup! We’re a pretty active family and the pups are generally free to roam. I have a fenced backyard and my neighborhood has plenty of sidewalk space. Your pup will be loved on by me, my 6 year old, and our pup from the moment they enter our home. Don’t be alarmed if your pup is spoiled by the time you pick them up :-)
About: I like to work on tricks, patience, and leash pulling while dogsitting. I am not a certified dog trainer but just like to help give dogs structure while in my care to hopefully build or keep good habits for their owners. I am comfortable with providing medications to both cats and dogs orally or with food- no injections. I always leave your home cleaner than I found it, wash my linens, and do basic home cleaning so when you return home you can focus on your fur babies and relaxation! I am currently working a full time position Monday through Fridays 8am-4pm. I can let dogs out before and after work and depending on your homes distance from my office, I can offer a quick lunch time potty break or walk. I treat every animal I come across with the same care and love I have for my own. I am the kind of woman who gets excited seeing any kind of animal while out and about and has to stop the owner to see if I can say hello to their fur baby!☺️ Animals fill my cup up and I hope I can do the same for them. Snuggling with my fur babies is my favorite pastime.
About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, horses, cattle, chickens, ducks, sheep, and pigs. I started showing animals at my county fair when I was 9 years old. I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life until I moved to Florida this year to live with and help take care of my grandpa. It would be a blessing to find some new animal friends to love on! I am currently working full time the the Lido Beach Resort as the Front Office Supervisor. My schedule is 3 PM to 11 PM so my mornings are free. If needed, I am also more than happy to swing by after my shift to walk/check on pets. I am unable to board pets at my house at this time, but I do not take going into other homes lightly. It is an honor that I treat with the utmost respect.
About: I’ve been a dog mom for over 18 years and love caring for pets of all ages. I currently have two of my own, including a tiny 3-month-old Chihuahua, so I’m very used to puppy schedules, potty breaks, and routines. I work from home, which lets me give attention throughout the day, whether I’m hosting pets in my home or staying in yours. I follow each pet’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable, and I send updates so you always feel connected. Travel fee: If your location is 8 miles or more away, I charge a small $8 travel fee. I always confirm before adding it. I work from home, so I’m always around and able to give attention throughout the day. I take natural breaks for walks, potty time, and play, and my afternoons and weekends are usually open which makes scheduling easy. I have a fenced yard and a calm home where dogs can feel safe and relaxed. When I care for pets in their own home, I treat the space with respect and follow their routine so nothing feels unfamiliar. I pay close attention to gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and comfort items, and I always check in with updates so you feel comfortable and at ease.
About: Ive been taking care of animals since I was about 13. These animals range from cats, dogs, fish, and hamsters/ guinea pigs. I also have experience with senior pets as well. I currently work part-time but, I have plenty of time to care for any animals under my watch. I do not work Fridays-Sundays so, these days will be open for time to love and care to the animals. I have two sweet and small dogs named Lady and Maple who will keep you pet company. I also have a very large back yard although it is not fenced in. There is about 3 neighborhood dog parks all within short walking distance with plenty of space for you pet to freely run around.
About: I’ve cared for all sorts of animals, from chickens to cows, to bunnies, dogs, and chinchillas. I love them! I’m home every day and have plenty of time to spend with your babies. I am in my second year of medical school at LECOM Bradenton. I am home during the day when I am not in class, and love walks to exercise (having your pup would be a plus!) I like to walk 3-6 miles a day but will adjust to your needs. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play. I love walking around the neighborhood. I enjoy playing frisbee and tug of war - with lots of experience.
“Catherine is FANTASTIC! Levi fell in love immediately! She stayed and played with him. Fed him and loved on him. He was so relaxed when we got home. Priceless. Thank you Catherine!!”
About: Hey I’m Kenzie, I work at a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant and also in kennels taking care of dogs and cats. I’ve been working in animal care for over 5 years now I’ve worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility and vet hospitals and I moved down to Florida recently from North Carolina. Currently taking care of your pets is my full time job so my schedule is always open and I’d love to get to know you and your fur babies!

About: Hi! My name is Amanda! My family and I have been. On Rover for over 3 years now. We currently both work outside of the home full time, with flexible schedules. We have four kids (16,15,13,8) who love dogs and help us a ton! They are all receptive to dogs and know when to leave them be due to the dog being nervous or to cuddle them when they are comfortable. We have a large fenced in yard and have experience with giving medication as well. We look forward for the chance to care for your pets while you are gone! My job is flexible. I work close to home full time with frequent opportunities for breaks, so I am available during a wide variety of times needed. While boarding I have opportunity for a number of walks a day. I have a fenced in yard. If I care for multiple dogs, I introduce them slowly, and always feed separately, to avoid any issues. There is opportunity for blended play/snuggles as well as 1:1.
About: I’ve always had a love for dogs and I’d love to love on your dog! My dog is my heart. I love him so much and would love to share the love. Right now I don’t have a schedule so I can work any hours. I can walk, board, or just come over for a free snuggle. I will follow your instructions exactly because I know how we love our fur babies. I’m pretty lenient with my boy. He can get on furniture and in the bed. I figure why have them if you’re not going to love on them! Consider my services please!
About: I have worked with dogs in the grooming industry and the veterinary industry. I have experience and certified in Fear Free, trained to read and properly handle animals body language. I take care of my grandparents dogs often and have a dog of my own. I currently work from 8-4 Monday through Friday. I am able to feed your fur babies and take them for their evening walks. I am completely free on the weekends for drop-in, extended visits, or over night stays! I prefer to take care of animals in their own homes to reduce the stress. A slow introduction is a must, especially as a new person in their environment. I follow feeding instructions to a tee as well as any other instructions left. Play time and walks are a must!

Kaitlyn has cared for my dog and cat through both check-ins and overnight stays, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She is reliable, punctual, communicative, and always provides great updates and photos that give me peace of mind while I’m away. She’s also been able to help on short notice, which I greatly appreciate. Her kindness and genuine care for my pets truly set her apart. I highly recommend her!
Where do I begin ? Lola is truly a wonderful dog walker. She is always on time, incredibly dedicated, and genuinely cares about my dog’s well-being. She’s flexible, helpful, and consistently makes sure my dog is safe, loved, and in a clean, comfortable environment. Having Lola has been such a relief—especially during emergencies when I can’t get home in time. Knowing my dog is treated like family gives me total peace of mind. I honestly can’t say enough good things about Lola, and I would recommend her to anyone who loves their dog like a family member. Thank you LOLA YOU ARE AMAZING

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bradenton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bradenton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Bradenton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
