About: Been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I’ve had cats and digs growing up my entire life! I love to be active and walk and have free time and would love to be around animals I am Flexible all week and weekend when in town. I do travel often. Want to stay busy when I am in town and love animals! I can do whatever is needed. I have a fenced in yard and crate of my own. I only crate mine now when needed but that is not often as he is older. I only have one of my dogs with me at my home as my other dog is with my mother in my home town.
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.

“Wonderful walker who was chill around my energetic Golden and was able to manage his excitement. Carolina took great pics of Captain and really captured who he is on his walks, happy with a stick and running joyful. That let me know he enjoyed his time with Carolina and was comfortable with her — we will be rebooking!”

About: Hire me and your dog won’t be barking up the wrong tree! I’ve adored man’s best friend since I was a small child, and loving and taking care of other’s furry friends since I was 8 years old came easy to me. My years of experience have helped me be equipped at walking, bathing, cleaning up bodily waste, and wiping down dogs after being outside. Does your dog have a hard time not being distracted and pulling you every which way on a walk? No problem! I am capable of being stern and respectful with your companion in order for them not to get hurt by running off or be mischievous toward other individuals. Whether your dog is shy and skittish or disturbs the neighbors by being easily amused and barks when there’s too much excitement, I strive to create a calm and quiet atmosphere to gain their trust and to be respectful of their needs. If they require someone who can match their more bubbly energy, I also am more than happy to comply to this as well. When you’re away, there’s no need to worry since I will give as much affection as your pet desires while also making sure they are well fed and given plenty of water all according to their feeding plan and schedule. It would be my absolute pleasure to treasure your dog by being their pet sitter! I am free for most of the weekday during the mornings (starting at 7:30 AM) and some afternoons and evenings. If you need a carer earlier in the mornings, I will see if I am available to do so. I am currently not working anywhere else and have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I am flexible with keeping your pet wherever you need them inside or around your home. In the yard, a crate, or a room, I will accompany them and keep them in the place they need to be during and after the visit.

While we were gone our dog had a little accident and she cleaned it up for us and made sure there was not a stain left on our new rug! We would definitely recommend Emma and plan to use her services again!”
About: As a lifelong pet parent, I know how much trust it takes to hand your dog over to someone else. So I take that seriously. I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life and currently have a 7yo Cattle Dog mix and a quirky orange cat. I show up on time, follow routines carefully, and make sure every walk feels safe, positive, and fun for your pup. Pet care fits naturally into my week because I’m self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I’m also a mom to an almost 4yo, so I prefer to do most walks while she’s at school, but I can usually adjust my schedule when needed. I love staying active, and adding dog walks into my day is something I genuinely enjoy. I’ll care for your pets in your home by following your established routine and any specific instructions you leave. On walks, I keep your dog safely leashed, give them a good mix of structure and sniffing time, and make sure they come home happy and settled.
About: I've had pets in my home as long as can remember, I love animals. I love going on walks, playing ball or tug of war, or just a belly rub and snuggle. I treat every pet as if it were my own and enjoy figuring out what makes them tick. Your pet's peace of mind and happiness are always a priority. I would gladly provide updates and photos while you are away, rest assured they are in good hands. I am currently working part time and enjoy a flexible schedule. I know that we can find a schedule that works for all of us. I am an empty nester with a longtime boyfriend; we have been in Florida for almost two years and have recently settled in Sarasota. I have enjoyed getting to know different parts of the state and look forward to more exploring.
About: I’ve spent the last 15+ years caring for dogs — from my own family pets to friends’ and neighbors’ pups. Over the years, I’ve helped care for dogs of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. When my family got a puppy five years ago, I helped with basic training and routines, so I understand the patience and consistency that takes. I’ve also cared for older dogs who needed a little extra attention, including giving medications and making sure they stayed comfortable and happy. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and treat every one like my own. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or just some extra love and playtime, I make sure each dog feels safe, cared for, and loved. I work from home as a graphic designer, which gives me a really flexible schedule. I love taking breaks throughout the day to get outside, enjoy some sunshine, and go for walks — and having a dog along makes it even better! It’s the perfect balance of work and fresh air, and I always make sure each walk or visit fits smoothly into my routine so your pup gets my full attention. When I’m visiting a client’s home, I always make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for in their own familiar space. I take time to follow each pet’s usual routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles — so they feel secure and loved while you’re away. At home, I have a fenced yard and a safe, pet-friendly environment, which means visiting pups can enjoy fresh air and playtime when needed. My priority is always safety, consistency, and making sure every dog feels happy and relaxed.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have always loved being around them. I’ve helped family and friends with their pets over the years including daily walks, playtime, and feedings. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I currently work part time from home and have a flexible schedule to be able to walk or drop in to check on your pets I will ensure your pets safety by being cautious while walking them and making sure they are safe before leaving your home after drop ins
Sarasota Springs dog parents share their Rover experiences
By far, Penelope’s favorite! Kim was very sweet and communicative, sent me pictures the entire time. It is clear that she really values what she does and goes the extra mile to make sure the pup is happy and the owner has peace of mind. I will continue to book Kim every chance I get!
Jewels was wonderful. She did a meet and greet prior to the actual dog walking appointment. That really impressed me. She also faced numerous challenges with my condo complex and access. But she overcame them with no problems. She also kept me informed about everything with my dog. Cant say enough good about her. I highly recommend Jewel.
She was absolutely amazing with my girl! She went on a nice walk, played with her, and showed so much patience—especially in the beginning when my pup was scared and nervous. She was super professional, kind, and truly caring. I would trust her with any dog. Highly recommend Camilia!
