“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

“Incredible and the best of the best. Caroline took care of my baby while I was out on a quick trip and reported my cats habits and shared pics. She is thorough with her visits and truly cares for your pet as if it were her own. Definitely booking again!”

“Sky has been really great with my baby Jerry! I love my dog so much and I can tell she truly cares about him and animals. She is super responsive and dependable. I had an unexpectedly long day at work this week and she was able to come twice a day on short notice. Thank you so much Sky! 🫶🏻”


“Nicole did an excellent job taking care of our dog and 2 cats. She displayed excellent dependability and true care and affection for our pets. She went above and beyond keeping us informed and level of attention to detail. Highly recommend!”

“Kimberly does a great job as a pet sitter for my two year old cat. I have added drop-in sessions close to the day of drop-in and Kimberly has accommodated them. My very shy cat trusts Kimberly so I can leave home knowing Liliya is safe and cared for. I’m grateful to have found her on the Rover app.”

“Kailea took excellent care of our three doggos! We were visiting Sarasota, but will definitely contact her again if we need pet care on future visits. Thanks, Kailea!”

About: I’ve had cats growing up and have pet sat big doggies, kitties, bunnies, chickens, and more! I’m so excited to show your fur babies some love! I am currently working as an acting apprentice at Florida Studio Theatre. My schedule changes week to week so I can have flexibility in times! I’m happy to take care of whatever your animal’s needs are. I’m happy to give them water, food, pets, or whatever else they are needing.
About: I have provided pet care services to dogs and cats of all ages and needs. From walking the neighbors dogs to watching their cats at night, I am ready for whatever care your animal needs. I am also equipped from the personal care of the dogs and cats my family and I rescued from baby to senior. I can’t wait to meet your pets and make them feel at home! I generally work 9-6 weekdays but my schedule fluctuates week to week and is flexible on weekends. I am happy to provide care before and after my work day. Let’s find a time! I will provide a safe environment in the home for the pets maintaining whatever feeding and bathroom schedule they are on. I love playing with animals and just keeping them company :).

“10/10 recommend! Laney dropped in fed and played with my cats she even got my shy cat to play too. She sent photos daily and I felt so comfortable with her as a sitter. I will definitely be booking again! ❤️”

About: We always had 2 dogs, my responsibility.As an adult I have had rescues and purebreds. I walk 4 to 5 miles a day and a dog makes it a learning experience. Fully retired. Snowbirds here through April 1. Have come to Sarasota last 13 years. Took the leap to be here Oct through April. We have a new puppy a Westie named Wallace who loves it here. I would provide walking services only since we are in an apartment downtown. Would prefer to work downtown area. There are so many parks and great locations to walk.
“Tracy is top-notch. She has helped me out a number of times, is very reliable and Ginger loves her. As a cat Dad I am grateful and feel assured when I have to go out of town. Highly recommended and appreciated.”

“Abry is fantastic. She helped us out on short notice and our pups loved her. She is professional and provided our pups with love and special attention. Highly recommend her-”

“Sonja was amazing! She was available last minute on a holiday weekend and did great with making me feel comfortable (it was my first time using this service). She also took time to let my cautious dog warm up, my pets were well taken care of! Will definitely recommend her and be using her again! :)”

“Grace is amazing! She was so intentional with our puppy and communicated so much! She’s the first person to watch our puppy and she made me so comforted! Thank you so much”

“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!”

“Jose and Alexis are so great!! Very responsive & reliable. Always sending photos and ensuring my dog was comfortable and had fun. They play, walk, run, jog - anything you need. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. In high school, I fostered dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Since 2017, I’ve also had a dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility, structure, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need stimulation to more laid-back pets who just want companionship and consistency. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Real estate gives me a flexible, self-managed schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m often out and about locally, which makes drop-ins and walks convenient. I can accommodate mornings, midday visits, evenings, and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
“Thank you thank you thank you for taking such awesome care of our Roscoe. We appreciate your flexibility, communication, extensive detail, and lots of pictures. Heidi administered as needed medication appropriately and was very detailed in her reports. All signs say our boy loved her. We were able yo focus on our trip, knowing he was well taken care of.”
Saint Armands pet parents share their Rover experiences
I have used Kathy & Bill W. a few times. They are fantastic with the cats. They even accepted my very late (Christmas & new years) request. I will recommend them to my friends that have pets. It is wonderful not worry about my fur children when I am away, and this time I was gone almost two weeks. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Thank you

Maggie was absolutely amazing with our animals! She went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pets adore her and always get so excited when she comes to the house! She’s caring, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. I highly recommend Maggie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and passionate to care for their pets!
Maggie was absolutely incredible! I was so lucky to have found her. She was so patient with my pups and their anxiety with my being gone. It looked like they warmed right up to her. She communicated daily and took pictures. They had a few accidents and Maggie was so pleasant about everything. I would definitely recommend her.
