Christina went above and beyond while caring for my pup, Mowgli. She sent me so many cute photos while I was gone and it really made me feel like he was being adored. When I returned from my trip, she had changed the sheets on the bed and replaced them with clean ones. It was such a nice touch and made it seamless for me to go to sleep after a long day of travel. I already rebooked her next visit!

McKayla was absolutely amazing while house-sitting and caring for my dog, Mable, and my cat, Kaiah. Mable is still a puppy with a ton of energy, so she can definitely be a handful, but McKayla was incredibly patient, attentive, and wonderful with her. She also took great care of Kaiah and made sure both pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. What really stood out was her communication. She sent so many photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pets were in great hands. She was always easy to reach, quick to respond, and kept me informed the entire time. Since she stayed in my home, I also appreciated how respectful and responsible she was. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I left it when I returned. Coming home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house made all the difference. I would absolutely book McKayla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and caring pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Connie was a new house and pet sitter for us. It can be a bit stressful when finding someone new; however, I didn’t have to worry one bit! Connie was easy to get to know quickly and can tell she’s passionate for all animals. She left me feeling confident that the house and pets would be in very good hands. Professional, compassionate with great communication! Thank you!!!

Recently traveled out of state, and had to scramble to find a sitter for my dog and cat. Having never used a service like Rover I rightfully skeptical. I am so happy I connected with Devynn, from the first moment I met her I felt at ease about the decision, and I could tell my dog Peggy, cat Stella felt the same. Devynn kept me posted with photos the whole time and was super communicative, it was very apparent she looked after them like they were her own! Thank you again Devynn 😊

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and exotics for many years. Well versed in pet care for any breed and kind of animal. Big fan and friend of all pets alike. I am currently an online college student, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your furry family members, with extra love! I have a very friendly but shy chihuahua who would be separated from your furry friend in my home. I can uphold any rules you may follow in your own home for your pets as need be.

Vanessa was a wonderful housesitter for my dog, Zoey. She kept in touch by sending pictures and texts daily. She followed all the suggestions and directions that were important to me and took very good care of my dog, Zoey. When I arrived home at 9:00pm, I noticed that she had cleaned and dusted my home and washed and remade the bed that she had used. I have already booked Vanessa for an upcoming trip next month. I would definitely recommend her if you live in the Bradenton area.

Jessica was so wonderful with our dogs while we were gone for 2 weeks. She stayed at the house as we had hoped, made sure to get them out of the house on walks, and shared great communication throughout the whole process! We could tell in the pictures she sent us, that she truly cared for the dogs. We would have her back in a heartbeat! Thank you Jessica!

About: I’ve always had animals around at home, through fostering, and from volunteering at our local shelter, so pet care is just part of my life. I’ve handled everything from goofy, high‑energy pups to shy cats who need a slow, gentle approach. My fiancée worked at the same shelter for years, so I picked up a ton of hands‑on tips from her too. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets like my fiancée’s sister’s Frenchie and Lab, lots of cats with big personalities, and plenty of shelter dogs who just needed a confidence boost. I’m comfortable with shy pets, excited pets, nervous pets, and the ones who need a little extra patience. I’ve also given medication, done enrichment, and helped pets settle in when they’re unsure. Whether your pet wants couch cuddles, a walk, or even a silly dog birthday party (yes, we’ve actually done one), I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every pet like family. I work from home, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I keep a steady routine with time set aside for feeding, walks, playtime, and check‑ins. Even on busy days, I make sure every pet gets attention and consistency. When I’m house sitting, the only thing I need to work from home is a spot where I can plug into a hardwired internet connection. I bring my own portable desk, cords, and equipment, so I don’t need anything else from you. It never gets in the way of pet care. I’m still around all day for cuddles, walks, and company. I keep things calm and pet friendly with cozy spots, enrichment, and plenty of supervision. I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities like shy, energetic, nervous, or pets who need medication, and I always go at their pace. In your home, I follow your routine closely so your pet feels secure. In mine, I keep the environment relaxed and predictable so they can settle in easily. My goal is always the same. A stress‑free, loving experience where your pet feels safe.

Michaela took great care of my babies while I was away for the weekend! I had to tell her the day she was arriving that one of my dogs needed meds as a result of an appt that morning and she happily administered her meds! She sent photos and updates and I never worried about their care while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Michaela for future services.

There isn’t enough room to express how amazing Nicole is! She went above and beyond to make sure this dog mama felt secure with leaving her animals! Pictures every day along with amazing communication. She even left holiday cards with pictures of our babies. Nicole is the only person I want to watch my “kids” from here out. My only concern is my animals might start to love her more than my husband and I.

My wife and I would highly recommend Ashlee. Sophie, our cocker spaniel, seem to be in great health and appeared to enjoy being around Ashley. She was prompt and sent photos of Sophie to us every day. Additionally, before we got home, she had washed her bed linens and they were fresh and clean in our dryer. The house was spotless when we got back as well. Once again, we would highly recommend her and plan on using her again in the future.
