Holly and Jace were great, I’m going away for a work trip next week, so I scheduled them for a drop in visit before my trip so they could get acquainted with my 2 dogs. It gives me peace of mind knowing I can trust my babies with someone while I’m away!

About: My husband, Trevor, and I both grew up with dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, fish, and he even had several birds! Over our years together we have loved three dogs, a bearded dragon, and a turtle. We have also been relied on, and trust by, many friends and family members to take care of their pets while at work or away. We have an especially soft spot for dogs and are taking our unbeatable belly rubs full-time with drop-in care and walking for small to medium (up to 40lbs) dogs. Larger dogs will be considered if they are a companion to a smaller dog. I also provide drop-in cat and other pet care upon request. Pet care is my (Morgan) full-time job, so your pet will receive my full time and attention during each play-date or walk. I am available Monday through Friday mornings and and afternoons from 6am-3pm, with some evening availability on Mondays and Fridays from 5-8pm. Additionally, I am available all day on most weekends. Please reach out with your pet’s needs - I can’t wait to meet them! Tail waggin walks, play, and cozy cuddles await! Pet care is my full-time job, so you can rest assured your pup will be well supervised and cared for throughout the play-date. I am available Monday through Friday mornings and and afternoons from 6am-3pm, with some evening availability on Mondays and Fridays from 5-8pm. Go on - schedule that tail waggin walk or play-date! When you book a walk or play-date with me - you and your pet become family. You can expect the same level of care and respect as we give to our baby boys. Barker, our chunky frenchie, and Gus, our hilarious little chorkie, receive daily walks and playtime at the dog park and yard (weather accommodating). When the rain or heat keeps us in, Barker loves to chase a ball or play tug of war, while Gus enjoys scratches and a cozy nap! Whatever your pet’s speed - I am here to accommodate and ensure they receive the highest level of care, always.

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and have always had a special love for animals. I am patient, dependable, affectionate, and very attentive to each dog’s individual personality and routine. I am comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, puppy care, and senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your dog. I will treat your pup like family, keep you updated while you are away, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for until you are back home. I work from home, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to provide dependable pet care. I am available for walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I can also accommodate evenings and weekends with advance notice. I believe pets feel safest when their normal routine is respected. I will follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and daily care. I keep a close eye on each pet, provide plenty of attention, and will always communicate with you so you know your pet is safe and happy.

I stick to a schedule all the time. I'm also always all over the areas from Venice to Riverview, I can always do drop by, a quick walk. I'm flexible with my schedule to fit your pets needs, and any last minute bookings! I'm currently working at 2 jobs and still have free time for your pets! I work as a house cleaner and receptionist, I love staying active and just hanging out with animals. My desk job gives me 3-5 hours of an extended break Thu-Sunday. Outside of that I am I clean homes and offices around the Venice, Sarasota, and Bradenton Area. My family and I have 3 cats, Liam, Munchkin, and Sunni. We also have a chihuahua mixed, shes our oldest. I keep our pets on a feeding schedule and in charge of food and keeping it stocked. I am very strick about their feeding schedule and food quality. Before I even became a cat parent I did extensive research just trying to find the best quality and affordable food, litter, toys. I've always wanted the best for them and treat them as an baby. Our cats also love the outdoors so I also walk them, harnessed or off but they well enough to stay close when we walk. I've also taught Liam a few tricks for treats (he'll do almost anything for treats).

Hailey was absolutely amazing! I hired her to watch my two cats while I was away on a long trip, and she did such a wonderful job. She checked in every day, kept me updated, and made sure my fur babies were happy and cared for. I came home to two very content cats and a spotless space. I’ll definitely be hiring Hailey again for future trips. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Betty provided drop in service for my pup Roxie for for 30 mins a day for 2 weeks. This was my first time utilizing Rover. Betty has such a kind, sweet spirit and you can easily tell within minutes of meeting that she loves animals! She was also flexible with activities requests that were modified due to changing weather. Roxie was thrilled to be able to play fetch in the backyard or go for walks (if/when it rained) mid day every day! Betty was very responsive and interactive by providing pics/videos during her daily visit. I will definitely contact her again when future needs arise!

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.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I love training, walking, and loving on dogs of all kinds. I have taken care of a wide range of dogs from friends, family, and others. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with, take care of, walk, and love on your doggos. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet in my care. During dog walks and dog sitting visits, I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and treated like family. I follow each client’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise routines, and safety preferences. I keep water bowls fresh, maintain clean spaces, and ensure dogs are secure on walks using properly fitted leashes and harnesses. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet owners can feel confident and reassured while away.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Nokomis

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Nokomis on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,670 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Nokomis. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Nokomis 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 Nokomis 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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 Nokomis with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Nokomis. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
