6. viktoryia s.
“Viktoryia and her daughter are the best dog sitters ever! They watched my dog numerous times for several nights at a time, and took excellent care of him. He was always so excited to go to their house, which made it easier to leave him. They are very communicative and responsive and will send photo updates. They cared for my dog like their own. You could tell they really cared for and loved him. I highly recommend!!”

8. 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!


9. Michelle M.
“Your pets might love Michelle more than you ;) Michelle has a genuine love for animals and is a great communicator, reliable, and full of heart. I'd highly recommend entrusting your love ones to her, she will take care of them as if they are her own.”


10. Bailey B.
“I have 2 cats and 2 dogs and Bailey loves them all. I know one of the dogs can be energetic, but she always greets them with enthusiasm whenever she comes over. On our first meeting she brought a binder of paper and a pen so she could take notes on how I wanted my pets taken care of and the differences in their schedules and she made sure to write everything down and took wonderful notes. I had her stay over so the pets wouldn't get lonely and Bailey happily agreed. It gave me peace of mind that my pets were safe and so was my home.”


11. 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.”


12. Crysta R.


“We found Crysta to watch our two cats over Xmas and she was phenomenal. Communicative, friendly and sent great photo updates +tidbits. My shy cat came out of hiding for "pets" on her first visit. We hope she will be available for our next trip!”


13. Monica L.
“Monica absolutely loves dogs; she goes out of her way to show them the most love and affection while being accompanied by the cutest little dachshund of her own. You can trust Monica will take good care of your pooch while your away! Five stars across the bored for my experience.”


14. Katherine A.
“Katie is a great pet sitter! She pays attention to detail, communicates often, and really cares for my pets like they’re her own. I love knowing my pets are in good hands when she’s watching them :)”


15. Ruth S.
“Ruth’s taken excellent care of my dog Chloe when I travel out of town to see my grandchildren. She spoils Chloe walking and playing with her. Chloe loves and adores Ruth. I highly recommend her for pet care.”




16. Ashley N.

“Ashley is very calm, which is really important with a bulldog because you don't want them to get overheated. I could tell my dog liked her because she was very calm when I came home. All of this is very important to me! I would definitely recommend Ashley!”


17. Sam S.

“We loved working with Sam! She did a great job watching our cats. She was on time and respectful of our home. We highly recommend her!”

“She is a good friend who has came over and takes care of my pets when out of town. If it weren’t for her I wouldn’t be able to travel she’s always been super reliable for Me and I couldn’t thank her enough she’s so sweet and kind to Everyone even the animals she cares for. I love that about her Sincerely Lesliee”
