About: I've taken care of dogs for the last eight years, including puppies and energetic dogs. I've got lots of toys, treats, and time to give your best friend :) and honestly I love dogs so much I would do this just for the joy of seeing dogs. I'm free all day every day! I just graduated, so my summer break is devoted completely to taking care of your pup. I'm flexible with super early or very late pick ups or drop offs, and I don't mind doing walks or drop ins at any hour! I usually play a lot with the pup, or take it on a walk. I love a good cuddle session, or even just hanging out together on the couch. Personally I feed my dog every morning and evening, and provide plenty of time in our fenced-in backyard to explore and run.
“Carolina was amazing! She communicates very well, she’s prompt, she sends the best pictures of my fur babies, and took extremely good care of them. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for her help again.”
“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.”
“Great sitter!! Pleasant. Communicative and personable. Very flexible with her schedule. Always checking in and checking out! — sent a lot of pictures. Highly recommended. Will use her again!”
About: I have various experience with all sorts of animals, including large farm animals. As a current owner of two dogs and one cat, I’m comfortable with them all and want to help your animal feel loved and cared for when you are not able to be there with them. I love getting down on the floor to rub puppy bellies and getting cats to play. I will do my absolute best to make sure your pet(s) are having a great time while you are away and provide them any comfort they may need. From cuddle bugs to loners, I’ve dealt with them all and know how to alter my approach to best suit your fur babies. I guarantee they’ll love me in no time and be beyond excited to see me on my next trip! I’m a server so I have plenty of time during the day to stop in and play with your pets to ensure they are feeling loved while you’re away! By staying in your home, I can make sure that your pets feel safe and at ease, rather than making them come into a new unknown environment.
“Kailea was very thorough in taking care of Bodhi, as well as extremely communicative and easy to work with. She clearly cared about Bodhi and his well being as soon as she met him. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Nicole is the best! She made me feel very comfortable leaving the pups in her care. Very responsive, great communication and caring for the dogs. I think they enjoyed her company, and will not hesitate to rebook. TY so much for everything.”
“Emma did a fantastic job. Totally exceeded my expectations and did everything I asked beforehand. The daily updates she provided assured me that my cats were being taken care of. Not only does she ensure that there is food and water, she makes sure they got enough loving which means the world to me. 10/10”
About: I have thoroughly enjoyed taking care of different dogs from a variety of breeds and ages for most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family know that they can rely on me to care for their fur babies! I have also worked on a farm with a variety of different animals including puppies along with working for a dog walking company. I am a spiritual life coach in the process of expanding my business. I work from home and am my own boss which gives me a lot of flexibility in creating my schedule. I do have time slots when i'm working with clients but besides that I am able to be quite flexible based on your needs. I love to connect with the pets ahead of time to get to know their personality along with meeting the parents and seeing if i'm a good fit. I care for pets in my client’s home and learn what the pets’ essential needs are and what I should do when they demonstrate certain behaviors.
“Kathy was a great pet sitter. I enjoyed reading her updates and seeing the pictures of my cat and my tortoise each day. Kathy gave my cat Misty the affection she craves so she wouldn't be so lonely while I was away. Kathy also picked up fresh lettuce for my tortoise since I was gone for too long to be able to provide enough of it ahead of time. I would be delighted to have Kathy care for my pets again in the future.”
“Highly recommend Nevaeh! I felt more at ease using this app for the first time and leaving my pups overnight. She provided updates and included pics every drop in. Would 100% use her again 🤍”
About: Growing up, I always had pets: dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, fish, guinea pigs, and birds. I loved animals, and I still do. My home is very clean, not just for myself but for them as well. Pets have always been a soft spot for me, and I make time for them every day. I can’t remember a time without furry friends in my home! I’m observant and attentive to every pet’s personality. I make sure they feel comfortable in their favorite spots, whether it’s their bed or a special corner in your home. I follow all instructions carefully from meals and treats to medications and routines to give your pet the care they deserve.
“Briana was amazing!! not only did she take care of my kitties, she brought in my mail, brought in my trash cans and cleaned up new kitten, disasters!! I will 100% user again for future trips!”
“Danielle has been doing weekly drop-in visits with my dog Toby for almost a year now. She has been a pleasure to work with and someone I can always count on. She communicates promptly, is very friendly, and gives constant updates on how the visit went. I highly recommend trusting Danielle with the care of your pets.”
“I highly recommend Christina for her exceptional care and attention to detail. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My cat was calm and well cared for when I returned. Everything was neat and orderly in my house. She brought all my mail and packages inside as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Kim was wonderful with our kitty Sofia! Sofia met her every time at the door and was so happy to see her. Sofia ate very well and was very well taken care of by Kim. I would highly recommend Kim to drop in and spend time with your kitty ❤️❤️”
Sarasota Springs cat parents share their Rover experiences
Hailey was amazing taking care of my two kitties. One of them takes medication and she did everything asked. Chaz is very weary with other people. It took a couple times and Chaz was happy to see her. She was also quick of responding to me when I wanted her to add some medication to my other cat. I’m new to this and glad I decided to go with her. I will use her in the future. She was so very nice, thank you Hailey!
Nicole was awesome. She handled every one of my care requirements. She connected very well with my cat, he's usually slow to warm up to new people, but he warmed up to her right away. She was reliable, and easy to communicate with the whole time I was away. Highly recommend.
Meara was absolutely amazing! I have a lot of cats that are high maintenance and she took great care of them. She sent lots of photos and the cats always looked happy in them. We even have 1 cat that needs medicinal cream rubbed on her ear every night and Meara didn't miss a day. I would absolutely recommend her!
