“Evelyn took care of my beagle Tuti, in three occasions I left him with her, and I saw how sweet, caring and considerate person she is, In the last time he stayed, he was sick, and he wouldn’t eat, but she’s very compassionate and able to handle any difficult situation. I was more than pleased with her service”

7. Maggie D.
About: Hey there! My name is Maggie and I just moved to Sarasota from Denver, CO. I am also a dog mom to my sweet 3 year old pup, Frankie, as well as my boyfriend’s dogs, Bear and Regan. I absolutely love animals, especially dogs, which is why I love Rover! I’d love to walk, play, feed, or just hang out with your dog anytime. I have experience living and taking care of both big and small dogs, but no matter what size, I love them all! I am currently looking for a job, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am in town most weeks and weekends, aside from the occasional weekend getaway. I have a fenced in backyard, which is where our 3 dogs love to play. I also love to get some exercise myself, so we are a big fan of walks!
8. Mindee M.
“Mindee is everything I wanted for my dog. Mindee is competent, comfortable and friendly with Coco. I feel totally comfortable sending her off for a walk even though Mindee is brand new to her. We feel fortunate to have found her.”
9. Helen W.
“Helen is a true dog lover. She is able to work with all sizes of dogs. She has worked with a trainer and has a very good understanding of animal behavior and how to work with difficult behaviors. Helen taught me that the dog walk is not just bonding/training time between dog and walker but also an exciting sensory experience that is very important in very dog’s day. She is very dependable no matter what the weather is like. If the dog will go out she will too! She will be an excellent addition to Rover.”
