3. Nicole L.

“Nicole was absolutely amazing. Words cannot express how grateful we are for Nicole to accommodate her time for our puppy Mimi’s needs. Mimi loved meeting with Nicole, and their adventures and pics showed how happy and well taken care of Mimi was in Nicole’s care. Nicole took the time to send us updates and pictures on her time with Mimi. Her pics were way better than any I have taken. She was very flexible with her time and was always on time for pet sitting. What an amazing experience we had meeting and working with Nicole, and Mimi just absolutely loved Nicole. Highly recommended, your fur baby will be in the best caring hands.”

“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. Maggie D.
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!


7. Isabelle W.
About: I am an Animal Studies and Environmental Studies double major entering my senior year in the fall. I have had pets my whole life, both dogs and cats, and have experience caring for both. I have more than two years of experience working in doggy daycare and more than one year of experience working in doggy boarding. I am comfortable with all breeds and all sizes and am also comfortable administering medication as long as instructions are provided. I am currently out of school for the summer. While at school I was employed to a doggy daycare, but while home for the summer I am unemployed. I have a grant to do research on beach nesting birds for the summer and will receive more details on the schedule for that in coming weeks, but was told the hours are flexible, so they can work around your needs! I will play with, cuddle with and love on your pet as much as you would like and don’t mind taking them on adventures to the park or the store! The only thing I lack experience in is bathing, otherwise I am open to help your pet have as much fun as possible while you’re away. I am also comfortable with helping you with anything you need done while you’re away, such as watering plants or checking the mail. Please let me know how I can help you :)


8. Emma M.

“Emma was fantastic with our 8 year old dog while we were away for Thanksgiving. She provided multiple pictures and updates during her drop in visits and gave her lots of love. We were hesitant to leave our baby but Emma immediately put our minds at ease and I’m so happy we decided to give Rover another try. Thanks again Emma!!!”


9. Carolina V.

“We were gone for about a week and a half and Caroline took very good care of Choncey and communicated very well 🤍 would definitely recommend!”


10. Paige S.

“Thank you!! Paige did an awesome job with my two dogs and one cat. I would use her again and recommend her service to anyone.”


11. Carolina T.

“Carolina was very communicative, took the time to understand mine and Digby’s needs, and gave my sweet old kitty on walks in the backyard and beyond. She took great pictures and gave thorough updates. I would definitely recommend her to anyone seeking care for their pet!”


12. Simone S.

“Simone helped with mid day visits while we went to Japan. I never met her before our trip but was immediately confident we could trust her with our girl and full access to our home, She always sent lots of pics and she had the initiative to brush/ groom our pup while we were on a 2 week vacation. She was very timely allowing me to relax and enjoy! She always communicated any concern and immediately responded if I messaged her. Highly recommend!”




13. Ashley N.

“Ashley is very calm, which is really important with a bulldog because you don't want them to get overheated. I could tell my dog liked her because she was very calm when I came home. All of this is very important to me! I would definitely recommend Ashley!”


14. Rylee L.
“Rylee dog sat my 4mo old puppy at my home over a long weekend. I could not recommend her more! She took the effort to get to know my puppy and her personality, quirks, and needs. I felt safe and comfortable leaving my pet with her, and came home to a happy well cared for pup!”


15. Gina T.
“Gina loves kitties, cats and dogs. I would love seeing her out with her dog Elly in the park. She also watched our cat when we were out of town for a few days.”
