4. 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!”
5. Krystal K.
“Krystal has been our occasional dog walker when work is too crazy but more frequently our dog sitter when we are gone. She does an amazing job with our dog and oddly enough our cats love her…….they aren’t really “peopley cats”.”
6. Craig & Karli F.
“Awesome as always!”
7. Michelle M.
“It's not an exaggeration to say Michelle is the biggest dog lover on the planet! This will be the perfect job for her. She is accommodating, friendly and trustworthy with your fur babies.

9. 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!!”
10. Nadya H.
“Our family has known Nadya since she was a young girl. She grew up in our neighborhood and was a good friend of our oldest daughter. She has always had a love of animals, which included her family dog Travis. She even worked at the local Humane Society for a short time. We hired her several times over the years to watch our pets when we were on vacation. At that time, she was responsible for 1 dog, 1 cat and 3 guinea pigs. Our favorite memory is when she sent us a video of our dog opening up her wrapped treat on Christmas morning, while we visited family in Florida. It was hard to say goodbye to Nadya when she moved to a different state. Rest assured, your furry friend(s) will be in very capable hands with Nadya.”
11. 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.”
12. Amber S.
About: Hello, I'm Amber and the current dog mom to three big old babies, 13yo goldendoodle Maxwell, 11yo pit mix Tank, and 9yo pit mix Tyson. All three are rescues. I've fostered a mama and puppies, as well as three Fospice dogs too! Through this app, I've also cared for puppies, huge dogs, hyper dogs, old dogs, tiny dogs, medical dogs, and more. I've had three Fospice dogs, so I'm somewhat experienced in senior dogs and medical dogs. Breeds do not scare me, nor does size. I have also fostered a new mama dog with her three newborn puppies, so I'm familiar with puppy care as well. All of my dogs are receiving some type of medication or supplement. The only thing I've never done is injections, but those don't scare me. If you can teach me, I can handle it. I LOVE spending time with dogs. Once I meet them and can get a feel for their needs, I have no problem meeting those needs. Some just need cuddles and attention, some need stimulation, some need both.... whatever they need is what I can do. I've been on this app for over two years officially but cared for my own dogs and friend/family dogs for over a decade. Also I have no problem checking your mail, watering plants, etc if that's something that makes your life easier!
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. Rita Z.
“Rita has been a wonderful reliable addition to my dog walking team. She is punctual, easy to communicate with and cares deeply about the animals she is responsible for. Vivi loves her!”
15. Erin F.
“I set up the appointment with Erin as an opportunity to meet and have an initial interaction. She immediately was focused on building a connection with my Bentley and by playing and interacting was already picking up on nuances of Bentley and showed a genuine interest and affection. I wouldn't hesitate to have Erin spend extended time with Bentley knowing he would be well taken care of. Think he's missing her already!”

18. Joshua W.
“I have know Joshua almost his entire life and can vouch for his integrity, honesty, timliness, willingness and that he is an overall-nice guy that loves animals. He has dog/house-sat for us in the past and is already scheduled to help us again. Do not hesitate to hire him!”
19. Kimberly G.
“Kimberly is awesome!! She has been taking care of Annie for over a year and she always does such an amazing job. She always leaves us detailed feedback on how the visit went and we feel so comfortable her taking care of Annie! She’s the best! 5 stars !!”
20. 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!
