“Carolina did a drop-in visit for my 12-year-old cat. She was very communicative and sent cute pictures of Digby. I would recommend her to anyone needing a drop-in visit for their fur babies (:”


2. Evelyn R.

“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!”


3. Rebeca S.

“Rebeca is very accommodating and kind. She treats our pup as if it were her own, and she does a very nice job. My wife and I would highly recommend her services!”

“We have used Simone multiple times to take care of Luna and we couldn’t be happier! She’s always on time, she cares for Luna, lets her get energy out, and obviously really loves animals. Highly recommend!”


5. Bailey B.

“Bailey came and did a meet and greet with my pups. They took to her immediately as they can tell she truly loves animals. She took notes for our coming visit and implemented her tasks wonderfully. I got picture updates on how they were doing for the day and when one of my pups had an accident in the house, she cleaned it up perfectly. Highly recommend her and will be using her services again. 😃”




6. Nicole L.

“Nicole was absolutely fantastic with our Meadow! Her communication from the beginning was prompt and thorough. Although I probably had an excessive amount of instruction, she followed through with everything. She was very easy to work with and an obvious animal lover. Meadow warmed up to her and was glad to see her every visit. We will definitely book Nicole again! Thank You!”


7. 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.”


8. viktoryia s.
“Viktoryia and her daughter are the best dog sitters ever! They watched my dog numerous times for several nights at a time, and took excellent care of him. He was always so excited to go to their house, which made it easier to leave him. They are very communicative and responsive and will send photo updates. They cared for my dog like their own. You could tell they really cared for and loved him. I highly recommend!!”

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!




14. Kimberly G.

“Honestly, I can’t say enough about how great Kimberly is She took care of my kitty for a week and I could see from the pictures she was sending me how happy Snowbelle was! She’s not the easiest cat in terms of being very very shy. Somehow, Kimberly got her to come out and be with her. I will always use her when she’s available.”


15. Shannon G.
