“Brittany and her family were great! Luna loved being there as she got to play with the boys and Mia. She had lots of walks and plenty of time playing fetch, her favorite game. We know this because Brittany kept us up to date with lots of photos and videos as well as messages on how it was going. We have found our dog sitter for life! Thanks you Brittany!”
“So glad we met Taylor! Leaving our little girl Soleil with her felt like leaving her with a sweet friend. I knew she was in good hands surrounded by love. It was great to receive regular updates while we were away to keep our minds at ease. Thank you for your help Taylor!”
“We had a great experience with Jennifer Watching our 2 senior dogs. I received lots of photos and a video of them. They seemed so content. I would definitely recommend Jennifer to anyone needing to board their pets with her!!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog, Rocky, with Bryanna, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From our first meet and greet, it was clear she’s a true animal lover. She listened carefully to all of Rocky’s care instructions and remembered every little detail. Her home is super pet-friendly, and Rocky felt comfortable right away. While we were out of town, Bryanna sent daily updates and tons of adorable photos, which really put us at ease. She even got Rocky to eat his food every day — something he never does when we’re away! For the first time, I didn’t spend the whole trip worrying about him, and that means everything. Bryanna took such wonderful care of Rocky and treated him like her own. We’ll definitely be booking with her again and recommending her to our friends and family!”
“We will definitely use Floyd again. He really made our babies feel at home. He sent pictures every day which made me feel at ease. Our babies were nice and clean when we picked them up and showed no signs of mistreatment. Thanks to Floyd and look forward to using him again ❤️”
“Monica is a professional and knows animals (dogs) well. Her home is set up impeccable; she considers how to make your babies as comfortable as possible. Indulging there needs to truly make them feel at home. She even put this Dog Mom's nerves at ease by sending updates and photos throughout their stay. I'm definitely booking with Monica again hands down.”
“Angela was super sweet and I loved the photos of my cat while we were gone! My cat hasn’t ever stayed with a stranger for that long without us and he was a little mischievous with some hiding spots but Angela handled it very well by giving him his time to come around to her. Highly recommend!! :)”
“Couldn't have gone better. Ana was kind, caring, responsible and so considerate of my dog and myself. He had such a good time. Ana sent me pictures every day and let me know how he was doing. He really had his own fun vacation. She even sewed up his favorite toy that I'd left for him all coming apart. I'm so happy and will definitely take my dog to Ana again in the future. I think this is her calling.”
“OMG! As a 1st time user to Rover, we were nervous to leave our pups with a stranger + other dogs. We arranged a meet and greet, just to make sure. No issues what-so-ever. Our pups didn't bark or growl once; which is common for them with strangers___was a great 1st meet. Many pictures and videos were sent to reassure us. They played the entire 2 days, were comfortable enough to chew on bones and snuggle at night. She allowed Captain to hide when loud noises scared him and Biscuit to snuggle close at bed time.They both passed out cold for hours after getting home, not from stress, but from fresh air and playing. We will use her again and again”
“Tony was wonderful with our dog, Louie. He kept in regular communication throughout Louie’s stay, which gave us peace of mind. We felt comfortable and confident leaving our dog in Tony’s care and would use him again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs of different sizes and kinds since I was 10. Worked with fostering rescues and adopted my latest family member Princess. It taught me the needs of different dogs and to be patient and caring despite their background. My partner and I love dogs. We have a lot of love and kindness to give. 😊 I work at home. Giving me and my partner time to care for furry guests. He just helps me but I will be the primary caretaker. I treat them as my own. I dedicate time to play with them, take them out for a walk, and provide adequate meals if required.
“Kimber and her family were wonderful caregivers for our puppy Raven she had fun with their dog I loved that she kept in touch with me and let me know how my puppy was doing we definitely will be using Kimbers services again soon thank you so much Kimber. Tina B. ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️5 stars”
“Jeny was so great, she sent me pictures and videos the whole time we were away and you could tell our dog. Oliver, was well cared for and had so much fun! We will definitely use her again! Thank you so much Jeny!”
“Robin is an absolute angel! She watched our dog Buddy for 10 days, and was amazing with him. Buddy is a rescue and a very nervous little guy, so Robin had us bring him over for short little stays with her prior to our vacation, so that Buddy could get adjusted to us leaving him for a period of time. She truly cares about the pets she watches, and I felt like she cared for Buddy as if he were her own. Robin kept us updated on how he was doing, and included photos. We missed Buddy terribly while we were away, but we knew he was in safe, capable, and loving hands. I would recommend Robin to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and would not hesitate to book with her again. Five stars is not enough! :)”
“Teri was wonderful with our boy Maverick. She exceed our expectations. We were comfortable and felt secure that our boy was in good hands. We travel quiet often and will be using her again!”
“Donna and her husband were very welcoming and have a beautiful pet friendly home. They seem to have several regular pups they tend to and really enjoy it! Our Leroy was with her for 3 days. He came back happy and healthy. I would recommend her to anyone and will use her again in the future. Its kind of like Leroy has grandparents to visit now! Thank you Donna!!!”
“Jessica, was the best sitter EVER! Our Peanut loved staying with her. It was a great experience that I was very nervous about leaving our dog. She loved him just like he was her own. Communicated with us everyday and sent photos of him everyday. Quick replies and communicated right away. We love Jessica. We are planning another stay for Peanut with her again soon! Don't hesitate....she is the best!”

We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. She stays with our dog every year for 10 days straight, and the peace of mind she gives us is priceless. From daily walks to consistent routines, she truly treats him like her own. She sends us pictures and videos every single day, which we love, and it’s obvious from Max how happy and comfortable he is with her. You can genuinely tell she enjoys what she does and has a real love for animals. He absolutely adores her, and we never worry when he’s in her care. Reliable, caring, attentive, and kind. We are so grateful to have found her and wouldn’t trust anyone else. Highly, highly recommend!
Taylor was absolutely amazing! She knows dogs well and is super friendly and compassionate. I trusted her completely with my 3 fur babies while I flew home for the holidays. She even gave them all stockings with a toy, treat and blanket in them😊 So sweet! She kept me updated always with texts and pictures and I never was worried my whole trip. Her children are so sweet and loved on my fur kids and I was so glad everyone became good friends. I 100% recommend booking with Taylor if you are in need of fantastic sitter in Port Charlotte!
Conan had another great stay with Chris and Laura and their crew! We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that he was in good hands. They welcomed him into their home and showered him with TLC, snuggles, and trips to the dog park! Thank you Chris and Laura!
Gill did an amazing job with my little fur-baby. She is very contentious and caring. In the last 3 years I've had Bailey, I've only been away from him for a couple of nights and knowing that he was well taken care of gave me total piece of mind. She kept me informed and sent a bunch of pictures so that I could see he was doing well. I'd highly recommend Gill to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
