“Eve. There is so much to say. She is perfect in every way. A lot was happening in my life and she was steadfast in being there for me and for Olive Forever, the Greyhound. I needed additional days at the last minute and am so grateful that she was available, I would book her anytime for any reason if Olive needs someone to care for her when I cannot. Olive clearly fell in love with Eve.”
“Stephanie and Elizabeth are absolutely the best when we must leave our dear dog for travel! We never have a second thought about the care he is given! It’s so obvious how much they love animal and kind they are. We are always so excited to see Cooper when we get home, but he is not as excited to leave Stephanie and Elizabeth 💗He is really very fond of them and is always so excited to see them!”
“Frances took such great care of my fur babies! I felt 100% confident leaving them with her. They were free to have full reign of the home as if they lived there. They also had a nice big back yard to explore if they wanted. She gave them extra perks like watermelon on a hot day (we talked in advance about treats) and a cooling mat to lie on. Don’t look any further! You’ve found a gem 💎”
“Beth was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of Thor and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and treated him like part of her own family. Thor came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and excellent communication. We would be delighted to book with Beth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“I used Rover for the first time and was honestly a little skeptical because of past experiences. However, my original sitter had an emergency and recommended Rover, so I decided to give it a try. After reading countless reviews, I came across Alyssa and felt comfortable enough to book with her and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I met her, I felt at ease leaving my baby in her care. She was incredibly sweet, very communicative, and always responded promptly with pictures and videos whenever I checked in. What really stood out to me was how flexible and accommodating she was, especially since this was a last-minute booking she truly was a lifesaver. Most importantly, when I picked up my baby, she was so happy and comfortable. She didn’t seem anxious or like she was trying to rush out, which meant everything to me. I would absolutely book Alyssa again anytime I’m visiting Sarasota. Thank you so much, Alyssa!”
“Nicholas and his family took great care of Suzy! They sent frequent updates and pictures and gave us peace of mind she was safe and happy while we were away. Will definitely recommend and book again!”
“James took such great care of my dog Fletcher for a 3 night stay! I got daily updates with pics and James had Fletcher happily waiting for an easy quick pick up! My dog LOVED playing with James' dogs. HIGHLY recommend James!”
“Cindy and Steve did a great job watching Bodie our Golden Retriever over Christmas. They were very flexible on drop off and pickup times. We got regular photo and video updates. They have a lovely home and a large fenced in play area and also walked Bodie regularly.”
“Sofia says she loves dogs and it shows in her work! She is kind, fun and honors her commitments to the letter! If you're looking for a bright energetic care giver for your dog, be sure to call on Sofia!”
“This was our first time using Alicia and our 11 year old dog had previously been going to another lady for several years. His first night with Alicia he was a little sad and unsure but he acclimated quickly. Alicia was very responsive to us when we reached out and made him feel safe and secure.”
“Lori and Jim took wonderful care of our pups. Both were amazing, gentle, and loving with our two dogs. Lori was very responsive and thoughtful to send us frequent updates on our pups. We highly recommend Lori.”
“Nancy was great. She gave me updates about my dog pictures and texts. If I called to check up on him, she was able to answer the phone she had toys and was very sweet. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Audrey and Joseph are always the first place I check when I need a sitter! They do a great job of making my pup feel welcome and send daily photos. Trust them 100% with my fur baby.”
“Joan was incredible. From the moment we arrived Captain felt at home. She took him on walks. Sent us updates with pictures every few hours. We highly recommend her! We will definitely be booking her again.”
“Kendal and Demardre went out of their way to be flexible and understanding when I had to cancel last minute because of an emergency. Our meet and greet beforehand made me feel truly at ease, and Clifford was instantly comfortable and happy. Their kindness and professionalism really stood out, and I’m looking forward to booking with them again soon!”
“Jewel was so kind and detailed taking all the info I had for Luna since she is Diabetic and on special diet. Has a fenced in yard and walks the dogs. She brought out her two precious little princesses to meet Luna and they were so adorable. Her detailed text with pics of Luna’s daily events made my day. Thank you so much Jewel. I can see Luna was super relaxed since picking her up and her usual cry whining just didn't happen. It usually takes her three days to get chill again when I leave her. Thank you and your pups for her great stay away from home. 💖 You were the perfect pick for Luna.”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From iguanas and hamsters to cats and dogs, I’ve cared for just about every kind of furry, scaled, and whiskered companion along the way 🐾 I’ve especially spent most of my life caring for dogs, so understanding their personalities, routines, and needs comes naturally to me. I currently have a 14 year old dog who is truly my pride and joy, and caring for her has only deepened my love and patience for animals. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets with the same attention, affection, and care I give my own. Your pets won’t just be looked after, they’ll be genuinely loved 🤍
“Awesome cat sitter! Indika was great; she came to our home consistently and sent great pictures. I could tell my cats were in great hands. Will book again when we leave town. Our cats really liked her! Thank you!”
About: I’ve been a dog mom for over 18 years and love caring for pets of all ages. I currently have two of my own, including a tiny 3-month-old Chihuahua, so I’m very used to puppy schedules, potty breaks, and routines. I work from home, which lets me give attention throughout the day, whether I’m hosting pets in my home or staying in yours. I follow each pet’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable, and I send updates so you always feel connected. Travel fee: If your location is 8 miles or more away, I charge a small $8 travel fee. I always confirm before adding it. I work from home, so I’m always around and able to give attention throughout the day. I take natural breaks for walks, potty time, and play, and my afternoons and weekends are usually open which makes scheduling easy. I have a fenced yard and a calm home where dogs can feel safe and relaxed. When I care for pets in their own home, I treat the space with respect and follow their routine so nothing feels unfamiliar. I pay close attention to gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and comfort items, and I always check in with updates so you feel comfortable and at ease.
“Kaitlyn has cared for my dog and cat through both check-ins and overnight stays, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She is reliable, punctual, communicative, and always provides great updates and photos that give me peace of mind while I’m away. She’s also been able to help on short notice, which I greatly appreciate. Her kindness and genuine care for my pets truly set her apart. I highly recommend her!”
“Amanda is incredible . Punctual, friendly, honest, attentive and my cat loved her. Most definitely will be the sitter I use from now on. So glad I found her. She sent photos and updates which put me at ease while I was away.”

About: you would like to have Peace of Mind abut your beloved pet - you are in the right place! I had dogs and cats as long as I can remember. I love animals, and will care for yours as well as for my own. I will spoil them, but not more then you like me to do it. Puppies and seniors, large and small - everybody is welcome. As long as your dog or cat likes chihuahuas (not as a snack) and OK with cats. I am working from home, so your pet will never feel abandoned. We do not have small children.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid — so pets have always been a huge part of my life. Honestly, I'm at my best when I'm among animals. 🐾 I've run a small rescue shelter for stray animals, personally funding all of its operations out of my own pocket — from caregiver salaries to food and medications. As a medical doctor, I was also able to personally administer medications and vaccines to the animals under my care, strictly following the vet's recommendations. That hands-on experience means I know how to spot when something's off, keep animals calm and comfortable, and give them the attention they truly deserve. Whether your pup needs a good walk and some playtime or your cat just needs a calm, caring presence while you're away — I've got them covered. I treat every pet like my own, and I'd love to do the same for yours! 🐶🐱 I am currently available for dog walks and boarding dogs or cats as I work as a freelancer. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and I am interested in providing care while getting some physical exercise alongside. For boarding pets, I have a condo where your pet is more than welcome. We can do walks in my gated community. A dog park is across the street from my community if your dog loves running.
“Hudson had such a great time with Sidney and her crew! Hudson enjoyed playing with her other dogs and you can tell Sidney cares a lot for the dogs she takes on! Sidney was kind and responsive, and was very flexible with a short notice booking. We will definitely be re-booking for daycare in the future 😊”
“Larissa came over to watch my pups during fireworks and it was such a huge relief! My dogs clearly love her and feel comfortable with her and I deeply appreciate the care she takes with them.”
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for several years and truly understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. As a pet owner myself, I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I have real-life experience caring for my own animals and helping friends and family with theirs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of different temperaments — from energetic pups to independent or shy cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time and create my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, including afternoons and evenings. Because of my flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard with grass for safe outdoor play and live within walking distance of a dog park for extra exercise (with owner approval). Inside my home, pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. I can easily follow specific feeding schedules, crate routines, medication instructions, or litter box preferences. For cats, I ensure litter boxes stay clean, provide enrichment and playtime, and respect their space if they prefer quiet companionship. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
“Kym and Glen have been wonderful caring for my dog during my long work hours! It’s clear they truly love animals, and my dog is always excited to see them. They provide a safe, fun environment and keep me updated with photos and messages throughout the day. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such good hands. I highly recommend Them for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“I cannot say enough about my experience with Beth and her husband and their home, little dog and cats. I felt so at ease around their kindness. The best part is that my dog was more vibrant and playful after two days with them. They were keen to follow instructions and just be a loving presence for Zushi. That’s what we needed most! I will be booking with them again. And highly recommend them.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a natural connection to pets of all kinds. I grew up with Yorkies and cats, and today I share my home with two retired rescue greyhounds. I’ve also spent time around large breeds like English Mastiffs, so I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I bring a calm, patient energy that helps pets feel safe and comfortable—whether they’re shy, senior, or full of puppy energy. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel at ease while you’re away, and I’m fully committed to creating that sense of home and routine for them. From administering medications to taking gentle walks or simply being a warm presence, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals started at a very young age—I even worked at a veterinary hospital at age 14 as a dog trainer, which gave me hands-on experience in caring for and understanding pets. That early passion has only grown stronger over the years. Pet care is now a natural part of my daily life. I start and end each day with walks and quality time with my two retired greyhounds, so caring for animals is woven into my routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I genuinely enjoy every part of it. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need—whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Making animals feel loved and secure is something I take pride in, and it never feels like a task—it’s something I truly love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, and any special needs like medication or extra quiet time. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things tidy and consistent, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I take the time to get to know their personality and provide calm companionship, play, and affection based on what they enjoy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with soft spaces to relax, lots of love, and a routine that helps reduce stress. Whether they need extra snuggles, slow-paced walks, or a little patience, I meet them where they are—physically and emotionally.

About: I’ve previously worked as an assistant dog trainer in all levels of the AKC Canine Good Citizen program, handling both puppies and reactive dogs. I also trained a dog to pass the Assistance Dogs International public access service exam and have volunteered at animal shelters.

I pay close attention to body language and surroundings, keeping walks low-stress so every dog feels secure, enriched, and understood.

I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. What sets me apart is my calm, compassionate approach and commitment to maintaining your pet’s routine. I build trust, follow instructions carefully, and communicate with regular updates and photos so you have complete peace of mind. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible and present throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, with plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’m able to maintain your pet’s normal schedule and provide consistent attention, check-ins, and care throughout the day—not just mornings and evenings. Pets are family to me—my dog is my entire world. I care for every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I follow routines closely, keep a calm and safe environment, and provide constant supervision since I work from home. I’m attentive to each pet’s comfort and always share updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease.

“Eve. There is so much to say. She is perfect in every way. A lot was happening in my life and she was steadfast in being there for me and for Olive Forever, the Greyhound. I needed additional days at the last minute and am so grateful that she was available, I would book her anytime for any reason if Olive needs someone to care for her when I cannot. Olive clearly fell in love with Eve.”
“I used Rover for the first time and was honestly a little skeptical because of past experiences. However, my original sitter had an emergency and recommended Rover, so I decided to give it a try. After reading countless reviews, I came across Alyssa and felt comfortable enough to book with her and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I met her, I felt at ease leaving my baby in her care. She was incredibly sweet, very communicative, and always responded promptly with pictures and videos whenever I checked in. What really stood out to me was how flexible and accommodating she was, especially since this was a last-minute booking she truly was a lifesaver. Most importantly, when I picked up my baby, she was so happy and comfortable. She didn’t seem anxious or like she was trying to rush out, which meant everything to me. I would absolutely book Alyssa again anytime I’m visiting Sarasota. Thank you so much, Alyssa!”

“Jeffrey and Stephanie are fantastic dog sitters — I couldn't recommend them more highly! From the very first meet-and-greet, they were warm, attentive, and clearly dog people through and through. They kept me updated with photos and messages throughout every stay, so I always knew my pup was happy, safe, and having a great time. My dog absolutely adores them. It's such a relief to have sitters I trust completely — they treat my dog like family. Highly recommend booking with them!”
“Dr Hope and Scott are amazing dog loving people. I did not ask for walks because they have a great backyard and it is huge to let my dogs get the exercise they need for the 4 days. They are happy to be home but they enjoyed their time there. This won’t be the last time we will book with her.”

Thank you, Leigh and family, for taking such wonderful care of our babies!”
