“Evelyn treated Stella like her own: was eager to check on it, noticed ailments and resolved them. She communicated on the dot and left no room for any mishaps. I'll be having her take care of Stella again at the earliest time available!”


2. Simone S.
“It was my first time using Rover for a last minute booking while traveling. Simone was great! Thank you so much for easing my mind while enjoying my time away!”


3. 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!


4. viktoryia s.
“Viktoryia S has shown tremendous care for a dog that had cancer. Not everyone has the patience and the love for animals to give a sick dog the attention it requires in its last days as Viktoryia has. I would definitely recommend Viktoryia to anyone who needs a pet caregiver.”




5. Kim S.


“Kim has taken care of my Dachshund for four months, three days a week. She is always on time and always stays at least 30 minutes. She is very good at reporting in after each visit. Her love for my dogs has really shined through. I would 100% recommend her!”


6. Craig & Karli F.

“Craig and Karli were awesome with my dog Koda! They were punctual and played with her, took her on short walks. I very much appreciated the photos and comments while I was away. Highly recommended!”


7. Michelle M.
“It's not an exaggeration to say Michelle is the biggest dog lover on the planet! This will be the perfect job for her. She is accommodating, friendly and trustworthy with your fur babies. Michelle has excellent communication skills and is reliable. I highly recommend her for your dog walking services.”




8. Nicole L.

“I love that I can get away and trust Nicole with our home and little Bailey. She communicates well and goes above and beyond to make our little guy comfortable while we are out of town. She is especially great with dealing with all his senior citizen needs and notifying us of anything. I appreciate the extra kindness she provides and I always go on vacation with a sound mind that Bailey is in good hands.”


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.”


10. Jillian R.

“Awesome sitter for my pup. Communication was great and my puppy seemed very happy! Will be using you again!”

12. Shannon G.

“Shannon was awesome taking care of our sweet boy! Very communicative and you can see her genuine love for animals. Will definitely be using her again!”




13. 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!”


14. Rita Z.
“Rita has been a wonderful reliable addition to my dog walking team. She is punctual, easy to communicate with and cares deeply about the animals she is responsible for. Vivi loves her!”


15. Kristin M.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Kristin for anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dedicated pet sitter/walker. Kristin has taken care of our dog on multiple occasions, and we couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and attention she provides. She is very punctual, responsive, and ensures that our dog is not only well-fed and exercised but also receives plenty of love and affection. Our lab adores her and we feel comfortable leaving her knowing she is in good hands and is happy when we return. I highly recommend Kristin to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“I set up the appointment with Erin as an opportunity to meet and have an initial interaction. She immediately was focused on building a connection with my Bentley and by playing and interacting was already picking up on nuances of Bentley and showed a genuine interest and affection. I wouldn't hesitate to have Erin spend extended time with Bentley knowing he would be well taken care of. Think he's missing her already!”
