Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ellenton

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ellenton
“This is the first time we have boarded Rosie through Rover and we couldn’t have picked a better person. We felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands and getting updates about how she was doing. Definitely recommend!!”

“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!!”

“First time using Rover and Kym and Glen gave my dog a great home away from home. They regularly sent photos and promptly answered any concern that I had. I feel she the care she was given while there was top notch. Thanks to both Kym and Glen!”

“Linda was very patient with Monty and she provided a loving space for our dogs to feel at home. Once he settled down he was attached to Linda's side. Linda sent several photos and it was nice to see our dogs and Linda’s dog all getting along and clearly feeling at home. Thank you for taking care of our dogs and the assurance that they were well cared for allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation.”
“I am so grateful to have Eve caring for my dog! Bruce is very wary of new people but Eve is consistently patient and welcoming until he gives in and snuggles up to her. :) I know Eve will keep him safe and well-cared for. She is reliable, friendly, takes one dog at a time and works at home, so your dog will have company when they want it.”

“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.”

“As always, Jessica made it super easy to drop off and pick up! Wisco loves going there any time we have to leave her for a trip. And she always comes home exhausted, which means she’s getting all the play she could want.”

“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!”

“Great sitter! They've got kids and dogs at the house, and I think all that company made Cotti really comfortable — she settled right in. Easy to communicate with, no stress on our end. Would definitely book again.”

“Audrey and Joe were amazing! Very warm and lovely people. You can tell they really love dogs and they treated our dog like their own. We missed our puppy so much but felt comfortable because we knew he was in good hands!”

“Angela was so very kind, considerate, and respectful of our time. Meet and greet as well as drop off/pick up were a breeze. Absolutely felt 1000% comfortable leaving my baby with her and it looked like our dogs had such a great time together. Thank you again for letting Luna play with Bieber!”

“Stacia and her family were so sweet! Ghost was so well taken care of. I was constantly getting funny and cute pictures of my baby, Our dogs got along so well! Ghost will miss you guys! Can’t wait to book again🥰”

“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.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with three cats of my own, and I’ve created a comfortable space on my 5-acre property specifically with pet sitting and boarding in mind. Your pet will have plenty of space, attention, playtime, and a cozy home-away-from-home while you’re away.

I’ve set up a separate guest house specifically to provide pets with a comfortable, peaceful home away from home. My property has plenty of outdoor space for supervised walks, playtime, and exploring, while the guest house gives pets their own cozy space to relax indoors.

“This was my first time using Rover. Melanie has a calming and friendly personality which made me feel comfortable the whole time to trust her in my home with my cats. Her notes were well written and the photos she took showed my cats eating and her interacting with them. I highly recommend her to watch your cats while you are gone!”


“Angelina dropped in to meet the kitties and go over their routine. Then she nailed it! She handled medication twice a day, refrigerated food, and they lived having her play with them. Angelina is a great communicator and a fantastic pet sitter.”

“Jessica always takes such great care of our pets! She is very communicative and always goes the extra mile. We don’t worry when we leave our pets when we go out of town because we know they are in great hands. Highly recommend!”

“Denise was extremely patient dealt with two cats that never showed their faces and made sure the litters were cleaned and alerted me that the cats had not shown their faces so they had not eaten. I assured her I was OK with that one cat finally ate one meal and then the next day didn’t show her face again very patient very attentive.”


About: I’m a great cat sitter because I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I’ll give your cat the space they need while making sure they get plenty of love and attention. Whether your cat loves cuddles, playtime, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐱💕

About: Hi! I love cats and absolutely love to meet new friends! I had a cat of my own for 16 years so a good chunk of my life! I now have a 4 year old cat and she’s something else. I’ve always loved cats since I was little and quiet literally have everything cat related lol. I’m up for taking care of kittens all the way to senior cats! I know cats can be fiesty or scary to others but that doesn’t bother me! My cat beats me up on a daily so I’m up for a challenge! Cats like to choose when to give their affection to you so I’m okay with learning their ways :)
“Michael was very helpful with my last minute cat sitting needs. He provided short but thorough updates each visit, and my cats definitely appreciated their playtime.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since before I can remember. I have grown up around dogs and a few cats my whole life, and I truly love helping others take care of their furry best friends too! I am going into my freshman year of college locally this Fall 2026 and I would love to be able to work around my class schedule and my schedule with my sales job. I make sure pets have everything they need including their food, water, and whatever else their owners need me to give them. I take dogs outside for either a 10-15 minute walk a few times a day or, if you have a backyard, I’ll play with the dog in the backyard. I give both dogs and cats lots of pets and attention during my time with them and make sure I leave the house clean of anything the pets have done while the owners weren’t home. I make sure all the doors leading into the house are securely locked before leaving and make sure that nothing harmful to the pets is left within their reach.

About: I’ve had cats my entire life, so caring for them feels very natural to me. Every cat I grew up with was a family pet, and when I moved out on my own, I knew pretty quickly that my home didn’t feel complete without one. That’s when I found Levi, my one-eyed little guy who is now an extremely spoiled rotten little possum in the best possible way. I currently live with two cats, Levi and Romie, so I’m very familiar with everything from feeding and litter boxes to playtime, cuddles, keeping an eye on their routines, and learning each cat’s individual personality. Cats may be more independent than dogs, but that definitely doesn’t mean they don’t need care and companionship. In my experience, what they often want most is attention, just delivered entirely on their terms, of course! I also understand that some cats are immediately affectionate while others need time before they trust someone new. I’m happy to sit quietly with a shy cat, play with an energetic one, or give a professional-level amount of attention to the cat who decides I am now legally obligated to pet them for the next three hours. I’ll always follow their routine and let them set the pace.
About: We have taken care of multiple dogs at a time and grew up with a dogs as well. We have a cat Jen adopted five years ago as well. Jen currently works from home and can work from anywhere there is wifi. Our cat can stay at home and is pretty independent so we can focus on your pets while you’re away. We will follow whatever instructions that are left. We take great care in making the environment as normal for the pets as possible and will leave your home in the same, if not better shape than when you left it.
“Stacia and her family are super nice. She and her kids made sure my cats experience was beyond. They spoiled her so much I was afraid she wouldn't want to come home :) I did not worry for a second and had a wonderful (much needed) vacation. I recommend Stacia 150%!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ellenton
“Our little baby doesn’t get to play much with other animals and he had his first experience here and it went amazing. Tatiana was very caring. She provided amazing picture and video. We would definitely book with her again very soon. Thank you so much for being such a great help and provider for our little boy.”

“First time using ROVER and Kym as doggie day care. Experience was FANTASTIC!!! Easy to initiate ROVER and locate a dog care for your needs. Kym and hubby are excellent with your pets. Will definitely use them again and highly recommend them to others.”

About: I have had pets my entire life. With a range of dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, geckos, chinchillas, and fish. I take pride in knowing animal behaviors and being able to accommodate to all needs from puppies to seniors. I work full time but can work from home when needed. My husband is a stay at home dad. So someone is always at the house or near by. We have a large spacious home, with plenty of space to explore and find comfort. Our backyard is fenced in with a lock on the gate. Our neighborhood has sidewalks and paths and is residential so only local homeowners travel in and out the area. Very quiet and clean neighborhood.
“This is our new pup's second stay with Jessica and when we picked her up she seemed happy and tired. She obviously had a good time. Jessica is very flexible to work with and keeps us up to date on our dog's day.”


“Our miniature dachshund "Monty" went to Olga for daycare a couple of times. He liked her very much and was well cared for by Olga and her family. Unfortunately we aren't able to book her anymore cause we just moved. We wish Olga and her family the very best.”

“My dog is very timid with new people and except for an hour at the groomer, she had never been left with anyone else. Justin was willing to take her on short notice for an unexpected daycare need two days. Justin helped her feel safe and she came home with her tail wagging.”

“Charlie awas very responsive, and accommodating. His wife took Halo for a walk as soon as we arrived. Charlie sent pictures and updates on Halo. I would definitely recommend them.”

“Patti was wonderful with my pup. He's often skittish around new people as we suspect he was abused before we adopted him but he warmed right up to Patti and was giving her kisses by the end of the visit. Patti was professional, kind, and patient with Nova and I would 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy, experienced animal sitter.”

“First time using Rover and Kym and Glen gave my dog a great home away from home. They regularly sent photos and promptly answered any concern that I had. I feel she the care she was given while there was top notch. Thanks to both Kym and Glen!”

“I am so grateful to have Eve caring for my dog! Bruce is very wary of new people but Eve is consistently patient and welcoming until he gives in and snuggles up to her. :) I know Eve will keep him safe and well-cared for. She is reliable, friendly, takes one dog at a time and works at home, so your dog will have company when they want it.”

“As always, Jessica made it super easy to drop off and pick up! Wisco loves going there any time we have to leave her for a trip. And she always comes home exhausted, which means she’s getting all the play she could want.”

“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!”

My dad is home full-time, and I’m home most of the time, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My sweet dog is very friendly and loves making new friends, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for playtime and companionship. 🐾 With our fenced yard, plenty of walks, cuddles, playtime, and lots of love, my goal is to make your pup feel like part of our family while they’re here. I’m also happy to follow your pup’s usual routine and accommodate special requests whenever possible. Just let me know what helps your pup feel most comfortable! For everyone’s safety and comfort, I do require a meet & greet before accepting a boarding stay. This gives our dogs a chance to meet and helps make sure they’re comfortable together and a good match. I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and getting lots of love. 🐶💕 Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine since I have a dog of my own. 🐾 I’m home most of the time, and my dad is home full-time, so there is usually someone around to give the dogs plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Our days include regular walks, time outside in our fenced yard, feeding, playtime, and of course lots of cuddles! Having another pup stay with us fits right into our routine—and my dog is always happy to have a new friend to share his day with. Safety is very important to me, which is why I require a meet & greet before boarding to make sure our dogs get along and everyone feels comfortable. I’m also happy to accommodate special routines or requests whenever possible—just let me know what your pup needs!
“Stacia and her family were so sweet! Ghost was so well taken care of. I was constantly getting funny and cute pictures of my baby, Our dogs got along so well! Ghost will miss you guys! Can’t wait to book again🥰”

“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.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with three cats of my own, and I’ve created a comfortable space on my 5-acre property specifically with pet sitting and boarding in mind. Your pet will have plenty of space, attention, playtime, and a cozy home-away-from-home while you’re away. I love getting to know each animal’s individual personality and routine, whether they’re energetic and playful or happiest relaxing and getting lots of attention. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can see how your pet is doing throughout their stay! I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, so your pet will get plenty of attention throughout their stay. I’m available throughout the week for boarding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home. I’ve set up a separate guest house specifically to provide pets with a comfortable, peaceful home away from home. My property has plenty of outdoor space for supervised walks, playtime, and exploring, while the guest house gives pets their own cozy space to relax indoors. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs, and I’m happy to provide plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay.
“Audrey and Karson were very kind and welcoming to our Golden girl and excellent with prompt communication. They sent regular photos of her which really helped a lot to know she was doing well with them. Overall, it was an excellent experience w and made it easier for us to be apart from her. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her board with them again!”

“Joan was AMAZING with my diabetic cat. There are no words to describe how nice she was to me and my baby. It's been a very stressful beginning to what may be a long journey with diabetes. She put my mind at ease and I was comforted with her experience on handling the necessary insulin shots that he needed. She was also kind enough to stay with my cat on a night when he was having a hard time. She went above and beyond with making him feel at home. I can't thank her enough. I wish I could rate her 10 stars!!! :-)”

“Took fantastic care of our pup and you could tell in the pictures how happy she was. Her pup, Lulu , is as sweet as they come and very playful and tolerant. I will definitely use again and highly recommend.”


“Came down from Virginia with my wife and our 10 year old English bulldog to stay a couple months for the first time. Within 60 miles of arriving at our condo, we were told we needed to come back to Virginia for family memorial service. Not knowing anyone, we were very fortunate to meet Lioubov T on Rover who took amazing care of our girl while we flew home. We truly appreciate the amazing care she gave our girl. Definitely recommend!”

“Sky was really amazing and flexible. She took great care of my Pug and was very quick to reply every time. It was great to work with her and I could tell she really enjoys this.”

“Lori was incredible! I was new to Rover, but decided to give it a try. After meeting her and her entire family, I felt very comfortable leaving our dog. While away, I got several pictures of our pup. Lori took him on long walks and he rested in one of many nice plush dog bed that she had. I could tell he was having a great time! Our pup was very well taken care of!! I would highly recommend Lori. Our family will continue to book whenever she is available moving forward!!”

“Robert and Topher took great care of our dog, and even sent us pictures and updates. Will definitely book with them again in the future and have already recommended them to friends.”


“I recommend her 100%! She took care of Oviler with so much love and passion. Oliver was happy with her and she sent me pictures and updates frequently. I’ll definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Skipper had a wonderful time at their house while we were on a week long family vacation! They kept me updated with cute pictures of him every day. He loved the fenced in backyard and playing with the other dogs and kids!”
