Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in McClellan Park, Sarasota, FL

“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!”

“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

“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!”

“Carolina was wonderful with our dog while we had to be out for the day. She showed up on time and took great care of our dog. I highly recommend her”

“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.”

About: Hi, I’m Nick. I provide structured, dependable pet care built around routine, supervision, and clear communication. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds and personalities, from working dogs like Brittanys and English Labs to rare breeds like the Swedish Vallhound, as well as rescued strays and foster animals. I adjust care based on temperament, energy level, and age, ensuring each pet feels secure and engaged. This range of experience has taught me how to read behavior, manage different energy levels, and maintain a stable environment for dogs that thrive on structure as well as those who simply need consistency and patience. My goal is simple: treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their companions are in good hands. Oh and lots of pictures :) Because I work from home, your pet is rarely left alone. I provide a stable, structured environment with consistent supervision throughout the day, ideal for dogs that thrive on routine and attentive care. Safety and structure come first in my home. I double check gates and entry points before every walk, use secure leashing practices, and maintain a controlled environment to prevent overstimulation. Whether caring for a senior cat or a high-energy retriever, I tailor each pet’s routine to match their age, temperament, and energy level to keep them safe, balanced, and comfortable.

“Tracy is top-notch. She has helped me out a number of times, is very reliable and Ginger loves her. As a cat Dad I am grateful and feel assured when I have to go out of town. Highly recommended and appreciated.”

“Kailea was very thorough in taking care of Bodhi, as well as extremely communicative and easy to work with. She clearly cared about Bodhi and his well being as soon as she met him. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Briana was excellent! We were on vacation for almost a month and she was dropped in everyday to spend time with our cat 💜 She was punctual, great with communication and I could tell comet absolutely adored her. Would definitely use Briana again and would recommend her. Thank you again Briana 😊”

Sibel Y.

“She was prompt and super kind! Quick response time. One of the days she came to visit our pet, the rover app was down, so she went out of her way to check in & send pictures through text. Awesome experience!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of any kind since I was 8. From playful puppies to senior sweethearts, I truly love caring for every personality and breed 🐶✨ I’m currently working a part time and have school until 4pm. I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pet💕. I’m available for onboarding during weekdays ( let me know ahead of time) and during weekends! I have an unfenced house. Have a medium size playful puppy, I’m able to crate if needed. There’s a dog park near by that have lots of space to play✨

About: I have thoroughly enjoyed taking care of different dogs from a variety of breeds and ages for most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family know that they can rely on me to care for their fur babies! I have also worked on a farm with a variety of different animals including puppies along with working for a dog walking company. I am a spiritual life coach in the process of expanding my business. I work from home and am my own boss which gives me a lot of flexibility in creating my schedule. I do have time slots when i'm working with clients but besides that I am able to be quite flexible based on your needs. I love to connect with the pets ahead of time to get to know their personality along with meeting the parents and seeing if i'm a good fit. I care for pets in my client’s home and learn what the pets’ essential needs are and what I should do when they demonstrate certain behaviors.

“Jessica was absolutely fantastic! Very attentive to my 2 cats, communicative, respectful, punctual and very sweet. I couldn't ask for a better cat carer while I'm gone to ease my anxiety of being away from my senior cats. I will definitely use her again if the need arises.”

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 :).

“She was awesome. Such a great dog lover. She was honest and let us know how Jenna was doing while we were on vacation. I recommended her to everyone I know.”

Sophia I.

“Sonja was amazing! She was available last minute on a holiday weekend and did great with making me feel comfortable (it was my first time using this service). She also took time to let my cautious dog warm up, my pets were well taken care of! Will definitely recommend her and be using her again! :)”

About: I bring skills and support beyond the basics. reliable, versatile, and here to make your life easier. Big communicator. Experienced, patient, tolerant and genuinely care. I am currently looking to do this full-time. I am someone who loves helping others in lots of ways. From pet sitting to bartending private events and babysitting or helping around the house, I bring reliability and get it done. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I find myself doing it often by just being asked ! In my home it is very peaceful and quiet but I am here enough to take on frequent walks and love to visit parks in the East Hill area or along the Bayfront. I will ask what your preferences are as far as how often we communicate or if you would like frequent updates and photos/videos.

About: Taking care of animals isn’t just a job to me, it’s a hobby! Giving them the proper care they need brings me happiness everyday! I’ve had animals since I was 5 years old, and I’ve learned so much as a I got older. Making sure they get enough exercise by going on long walks, being properly fed ,and giving them love and attention is my main priority! I will love your fur babies like my own and give them the best care they need. I’m currently working in a restaurant, so it depends on whenever you need me and how long you need me to stay, we can work around it! In your home I’ll first make sure your fur baby trusts me and gets used to me as I know I’m a new person in their home. I’ll make sure they’re properly fed with your schedule, bathe them if need be, taking them on walks every couple of hours, and giving them one on one attention. Their safety and health is also one of my main priorities. If I feel in any way they are in danger, I will take any necessary actions to make sure they are safe and well.

“Jackie is prompt, incredibly kind, and shows so much natural love to our little border collie Rusty. You can tell she deeply loves animals! Rusty absolutely loved to play, walk and give dog hugs! We also appreciated Jackie making time for us on short notice. We’ll definitely work with Jackie again and highly recommend her!”
