“Betsy was very loving with my dog, Lucy! She communicated with me the entire time I was away, which I really appreciated! Her dog Frida, is now Lucy's new best friend. Betsy has a nice fenced backyard that the dogs were able to run and play out there. She also sent me picture updates and I could tell that Lucy felt right at home. I HIGHLY recommend Betsy and Frida as your next Rover option!”
“My dog is super high anxiety and he was so calm around Lisbeth on the scariest day of the year (4th of July). Normally we can’t leave Richie home alone because of his separation anxiety but with it being the 4th of July, he definitely couldn’t be alone as he is terrified of fireworks. Lisbeth was great and has such a calming energy about her that she was able to keep Richie chill all night long. I would recommend her to literally anyone. She’s great with animals; they just love her and you can tell and she loves them too!!”
“My dog stayed with Karlee for 4 nights recently and he had such a great time! She brought him on multiple adventures including the beach and made sure to send many pics and update me daily. I would highly recommend Karlee for dog watching and sitting!”
“Stephanie and Elizabeth took great care of our two pups for almost two weeks. They sent us regular photos and always responded quickly to messages. We will definitely use them again!”
“Ranae is amazing! I will definitely be a repeat client. She was very good at making sure our baby was comfortable and happy. She also checked in with me at least once per day, with photos, to let me know how things were going. I highly recommend her.”
“Michelle did a terrific job for MIllie and myself. Both Millie and myself were experiencing separation anxiety, and Michelle did a great job for both of us.. Lots of photos and email dialogue reassuring my wife and I that Millie was doing fine. Truthfully, I think Millie missed being there and took a little time readjusting to being home. Will definitely try and book Michelle when we back in Florida next year.”
“Eve was outstanding! She pampered our Ginger more than we’re do including letting her sleep in her bed! She’s the first non-family dog sitter we had, and will be happy to use her again.”
“Akira had a wonderful time with Abigail. I got lots of pictures and videos whilst Akiras was there. She was immediately super comfortable and catered to. Akira will definitely be coming back 😊”
“Rebel had a good time and enjoyed having other dogs around him. We usually like to see where our dog sleeps, eats, and plays, but were not allowed inside the sitters home. This was a little disappointing to us but we do understand that it may be disruptive to the other dogs. For that reason, we cannot accurately rate the home environment. We truly appreciate Hope taking care of Rebel while we were away.”
“Kym & Glen kept our 7yr old mini schnauzer for 3+ days while we traveled for family! As soon as I met Kym, I felt very comfortable and knew he would be well taken care of! & he was!!! They even let him sleep with them!! Additionally, they are very responsive & send many photos! 10/10 & would recommend! :-)”
“Our dog spent the weekend with Janette, and we couldn't have found a better 'home away from home' for her. This is an oasis for any dog: a large, fenced yard provides plenty of room for exercise and entertainment, and her dog is great company for visiting canines. This is a true pet paradise, and we'll be recommending Janette's pet-sitting services to our friends. ”
“Charlie is the absolute best!! My Piper was right at home and I got so many updates and photos. He was flexible and played with her so much She came back home nice and tired. The best feeling after traveling. Highly recommend Charlie!”
“We could not be happier with the treatment Skipper received from Olga. She sent us daily pix and he looked so happy. When we picked him up he was clean and frisky. We will use Olga absolutely.”
“What a wonderful family, and our sweet dog came back happy, healthy, and unstressed. I will definitely reach out again to have them dog-sit. Karson was so thoughtful to send us pictures showing how she was adjusting, since this was the first time she had ever been left with someone. Thank you!”
“Elisa was absolutely wonderful while taking care of my pup. I loved getting videos and pictures throughout his stay with her. It was obvious he was well loved and cared for while at her home. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Linda and Brian cared for our Rue girl for two weeks while we were out of the country. It’s impossible to put into words how much we appreciate the love and care that was extended to our baby. She made fast friends with their sweet dog, Carmi, and Linda sent daily pictures or videos showing them having so much fun together and then napping together from exhaustion. Linda made the time to meet us well in advance of caring for Rue and really listened to what Rue needed, including walks, being brushed, the ability to have her crate to sleep or take breaks in when she wanted, and following her feeding schedule. Linda allowed Rue free rein in her home, and even made time for her to relax on the lanai to people and bird watch; something she loves to do at home. Rue had an amazing time, and this allowed my husband and I to really enjoy our vacation knowing she was having the time of her life too. We wholeheartedly recommend Linda for pet sitting services. I don’t think you’ll find anyone as wonderful as Linda and Brian out there! (Thank you so much for everything, Linda!)”
“He has experience in taking care of a high energy dog, at first I was cautious as I dont know how yoki will be with kids 10 under, but he did ok. Jarrad was trying to figure out how to work the apps but eventually was able to send photos. Will see him next time!”
“Tara is AMAZING! Our pup boarded with her full time for a week while we were out of town. Professional, caring, reliable, and communicative, just to name a few of her wonderful care giving qualities. Lots of pictures and communication every day. Even on short notice and on top of that our pup started going into a heat cycle while in her care. Tara kept us updated and made sure our pup was safe, loved, and cared for. Could not be happier with this experience and I highly recommend Tara!”
“Amanda and her kids did a great job watching our dog, Hans, and treated him like a part of their family. He loved cuddling with her daughter and husband. We plan on using them again soon.”
South Bradenton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Eve just watched our Great Dane for two weeks, and she was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met her, it was obvious how much she genuinely cared about animals. She made sure our dog always felt comfortable, loved, and completely at ease while we were away. Our Great Dane absolutely adored her, which says everything. Eve treated her like family, gave her tons of attention, and went above and beyond to keep her happy and settled into a routine. She also sent us constant pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax knowing our baby was in such great hands. We could not have asked for a better experience and would trust Eve again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive with their pets!
Gabrielle is fantastic! She took over the care of our dog at the last minute due to an unforeseen situation. She sent pictures, videos, and updates throughout the day. She took care of him as though he were her own pet or child. In fact, I am not sure he was ready to leave! She gave him a bath just before we picked him up. He went on multiple walks throughout the day. He was never left alone (she works from home). And her place is spacious, particularly the terrace! I will definitely use her again!! Best service we have ever had!
Karlee did an absolutely amazing job caring for my dogs, Atlas and Jaxon, this weekend. Atlas can be a bit of a difficult dog at times, but she handled him with so much patience, confidence, and care, it truly put me at ease. She also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which meant a lot and helped me feel completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Both dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved while they were with her. It’s not always easy to trust someone with your pets, especially when one can be a little more challenging, but Karlee exceeded my expectations in every way. I’m so grateful for the attention and care she gave them, and I would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!
Jessie picked up and dropped off our dog exactly when she said she would. She came with a checklist of questions that inspired our confidence in her. She sent daily (beautiful) photos of our dog and told us how much her family enjoyed spending time with our dog. Highly recommend!
I wish I would have found Charlie and Lisa sooner. I felt comfortable with them the first time we met and RD made himself right at home at the meet and greet. They were very attentive to him and his needs. Sending pictures and updates made me feel at ease because it was the first time I left him with strangers and I could tell he felt right at home. I will definitely use Charlie and Lisa again and I would not hesitate to recommend them highly to anyone who wants their fur baby in good hands and well taken care of. You will not be disappointed!!
I had my dog, Brier, stay with Pamela for the very first time. Prior to the stay, we did a meet and greet at her house and I could quickly see how much Pamela loved animals. During his stay, Pamela sent me videos of Brier playing with her dog. He was so happy and tails a wagging. Best Rover experience to date. Brier will be so happy to go back and I will know he is in great hands!!!
