“Abby has been such a blessing to us this Christmas! We Spent the holiday in Hawaii and we didn’t worry even for a second about our babies. Abby sent pictures of them being the happiest doggies ❤️ She even stayed an extra night because our flight was delayed. We came home to a clean house and happy, healthy pups. I can’t really say enough good things! Super sweet, trustworthy and reliable. We will look to book Abby first the next time we go out of town ?”
“Molly is the most amazing sitter and took care of my 2 dogs and cat for a week. They absolutely love her!! My mind was at peace while I was out of town because I knew she would take care of my babies like they were her own. ?”
“I lucked out finding Kim at the last minute. She was able to take care of the dog with a two day notice which was amazing. She kept me updated throughout the stay and even left me a note at the end that wrapped everything up so that I didn’t have any questions about how it went. I would most certainly recommend her but also book her again myself. I’ll already Recommended her to neighbors and friends.”
About: I've grown up with a large variety of pets my entire life, ranging from dogs (big, medium and small), cats, fish, beared dragons, chinchillas, and hamsters. Therefore I am very comfortable when it comes to handling varying types of pets and their personalities. Currently a full time college student and also looking for a part time job, but all my classes are online so my availability is pretty flexible. I walk 2 of my dogs daily as well as play with them in my backyard for at least 15 minutes a day since they are younger and need the enrichment. I also feed all my pets daily and provide them with clean water and litter boxes for those who use it.
“Rabekah was fabulous. Responded quickly and professionally to all communications, very sweet with our dogs, and went above and beyond in so many ways. We have one difficult dog that she won over quickly, and was patient with any additional needs. Will definitely book again.”
About: I've taken care of my childhood dog until her passing as well as many dogs, small-medium, and cats for the past few years. I just moved to this area and walking around different towns has become a big hobby of mine! I work in downtown Sarasota and I’m able to run out here and there for drop ins, I usually spend my lunch break taking a walk through town and I’m free on weekends! I’m big on phone-less walks except for pictures, with all the wildlife around and the heat in Florida I really like to be focused on my pet and check on their behavior and what catches their eye during walks
“Tracy was wonderful with our dog and cat. Our dog is blind and anxious and she administered all his medications and helped him feel at ease. She took wonderful care of our home and even left it cleaner than when we left!”
“This is the second time Victoria has watched our dogs, and they love her! We are so thankful to have found her so we can go away and not have to worry about the dogs. She’s the best!”
“Cannot convey the level of gratitude we have for having Libah stay at our home with our 2 pups. They are definitely not the easiest so her confidence and communications allowed us to enjoy our journey with out concern. They were excited to see us but were so content when we returned. I cannot say thank you enough to the level or professionalism, honesty and trust we had. THANKS Libah!!!!”
“Kinga dog sat for us for over 1 week. She was amazing. She provided daily updates and communication. Our dog absolutely loved her. She put our minds at ease knowing our dog was being well taken care of. She left the house in spotless condition. Thank you, Kinga!!!”
“Words cannot explain how grateful I am for finding Sumintra. I had never used this app before but she made it exceed my expectations. She was very caring with my babies, she was always communicating everything to me and sending pictures and videos. It made me feel so peaceful and calm. I recommend Sumintra 100%. Eternally grateful.”
“The best decision we could have made! I had never left my baby with anyone before, and I did it with Mauricio. He's incredibly good, and communication is excellent. I recommend him 200%. THANK YOU!! I'm sure we'll be back.”
“Usually I travel with my German Shepard and Doxie but this past Christmas break I knew I wanted to travel without them but I was skeptical about leaving them with anyone else. I reached out to many people on Rover but after meeting Danielle I felt comfortable making the decision to having her stay at our home to house sit and watch both dogs. Needless to say, she did not disappoint. I received many updates and pics that let me actually enjoy my vacation instead of worrying or feeling guilty. I would highly recommend Danielle!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for years. Ive been a pet owner for over 60 years. Grew up on a farm and had lots of animal duties. Have experience with small, medium and large dogs. Experience with giving meds. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to cats, so can't babysit your cat babies. I am retired and available most of the time days and evenings. I am on the North side of Sarasota. I can help with in a 10 mile radius. Also longboat key, St Armands and Bird key. I am familiar with crating. I can watch your babies in your home, stop for potty breaks, play time or walking. I have a fenced back yard and a shihtzu for a playmate. I am open to day care or coming to your home.
About: Our daughter moved in her 5th year of college with Atticus. By the time she was ready to move out he wouldn't leave. That started our adoption process for Piper so he would have a companion. Then came Luck-E Layla and finally Stella. We both flew for the airlines and transition into real estate. Working from home it was easy and therapeutic to have the pups by outsiders in our offices. Moving to a dog friendly town like Sarasota was a blessing in disguise. Dogs know and you will to when we meet your pup how much we love our pups and yours to I'm semi retired and work from my home. Our flexible lifestyle creates an easy situation for clients. We are here to make your pet feel comfortable when you are away. We have a fenced back yard but are located near multiple dog parks. In the client's home we will go over instructions for the pet twice not to leave any thing to guess.

Sabrina is fantastic! She is professional and responsive and my fur babies (2 cats) absolutely loved her! I highly recommend! One of my cats has a medical condition so of course I was worried about leaving him with anyone, but he was so well taken care of by Sabrina. Couldn't have asked for anyone better.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Laura to care for Ralphie and Rue while we were away. Leaving our dogs with someone is never something we take lightly, but from the moment we met Laura, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Laura was wonderful about keeping Ralphie and Rue on their normal routine, making sure they got the attention, care, and companionship they were accustomed to. She took the time to understand their individual personalities and needs, and it was obvious that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with them. Knowing they were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away gave us such peace of mind. Laura also took exceptional care of our home. She was thoughtful, respectful, and conscientious about everything, and we came home to find our house in perfect condition. It was such a wonderful feeling to walk through the door and know that everything had been cared for so well. Most importantly, we came home to two happy, content dogs — and that really says it all! We are so grateful to Laura for taking such wonderful care of Ralphie and Rue and for giving us the peace of mind to truly enjoy our time away. Laura is warm, responsible, trustworthy, and genuinely caring. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay with Ralphie and Rue again, and we are already looking forward to the next time we can have her care for them. We highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone they can trust wholeheartedly with their pets and their home!
We had an amazing experience with our Cyndee! She stepped in on short notice to care for our two girls for over a week, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She sent regular photo updates that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and it was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When we returned home, the house was spotless—everything was exactly as we left it. She went above and beyond, and we truly appreciated the care, communication, and professionalism she showed throughout our trip. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and caring pet sitter, and we would happily book with her again!
I had Kyle watch my three cats and puppy while I was away on vacation. He did an amazing job and managed all the animals well. He kept me updated with photos and made sure my puppy got outside and active while i was gone. When I came back home everything was clean and the animals were happy. I would recommend Kyle to house sit and pet sit!
Cassie cared for our dog Cooper at our home while we attended our son’s wedding. She kept in constant communication and sent many photos. We were so happy to see Cooper relax and even cuddle with her. Knowing she stayed with him put us completely at ease. We highly recommend Cassie and will definitely contact her again for future travel.
The moment Mary walked into the yard both of my dogs sat at her feet in total comfort ( they can be picky). She is a total delight to get to know and to work with and to take care of your fur babies. She’s very responsible, communicative, conscientious. I will ask her to pet sit again and again. I highly recommend Mary as a dependable pet sitter.
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.
