“Marley was a wonderful choice to keep our 8 year old Havanese, Buddy. She is very considerate and caring. Buddy stayed with her for 5 days and we received pictures along with an update just about every day. We will leave Buddy with Marley again in August and at Christmas, if we go away for the holidays.”

“I cannot say enough great things about Francis! She watched my senior dog, Madi, for a week while I was on vacation. Just before I dropped her off, Madi had been scratching and developed an issue with her eye pressure and had to start eye drops. Francis welcomed her with open arms. A few days into her stay, Madi needed a follow-up vet visit, and Francis took her in and handled everything—including her meds and eye drops—with so much care and attention. Madi is also on heart meds and requires extra support, and Francis went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well looked after. She sent me daily updates and photos of her relaxing on the couch or exploring her big backyard, which gave me so much peace of mind. I knew Madi was in loving, capable hands. Francis is kind, thoughtful, and clearly has a huge heart for animals—she had a senior dog herself so she understands. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Madi stay with Francis again. You are amazing, I can’t thank you enough!”


“We were so Happy to find Kathy & her husband Roy! They have him all the special loving that he needs and kept us updated with daily reports and pics to keep us connected w our dog Jack while we were away. Beautiful, clean home. Loving and attentive couple! Thank you both for all you do!! Todd, Michelle & Jack?”

“Sam was everything I was hoping for my fur baby! She treated her like her own. They had backyard adventures and lots of walks, cuddles and all kinds of fun times with Gus and the kitty. I felt confident that Fern was being taken care of and did not worry about her on my trip. Sam will be my go to if I have to leave town again!”

“Linda is quick to respond, easy to talk to, friendly and, most importantly, my dog was comfortable and at ease with her (and Larry). She updated with photos and I picked up a happy pup. Thank you!”


“Thank you to Ray and his son for watching our dog over Thanksgiving. We really appreciated the daily updates especially for our dog who can be very anxious. They even got her a couple new toys to play with.”

“Huge thank you to Viktoryia for hosting my anxious little terrier while I was on a business trip. Her dog, Coco, took my dog under her wing. My dog had the run of the house which was wonderful as she insists on snuggling with her humans on couches / beds or wherever they happen to be. Thank you, Viktoryia!”

“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!”

“Heather took great care of our goldendoodle, Biscuit, who enjoyed her dogs, as well as her pool! Biscuit enjoyed swimming with “Leo” and was happy to be able to sleep with Heather. They took a walk in the neighborhood as well, which is always a good thing for Biscuit. Biscuit came home well exercised, and had some nice long naps. We look forward to booking with Heather again soon!”

“Cherolyn is wonderful with Simba- she is so happy to spend time with him and I know he gets so much love and attention from the updates she provides. He also comes home tired which is a great sign that he has lots of playtime when he is there. He also squeals with delight and excitement during the car ride when he realizes he is going there. I couldn’t ask for more in a sitter!”

“Corinne was so kind and loving with my dogs! She treated them with such care . I am so thankful for her. She sent updates with pictures which made me feel so at ease, knowing they were in excellent care with her. My dogs were happy there and so well taken care of! Would 1000% ask her to watch my dogs again. Thank you!!!”

“Jewell is a true jewel!! My nervous pup flourished with her and her sweet pups. My dog is a singlet and isn’t around dogs a lot !Jewell’s pups welcomed her into their home and became great friends with my pup. I appreciate the socialization she received while staying with Jewell. We will be using her again. She is amazing, her home setup is perfect. Jewell is fantastic for nervous dogs. Highly recommended!”

“Finn really seemed to have a great time at Morgan’s! She sent plenty of pictures and updates. He was able to get out and stretch his LONG legs! We will definitely be using Morgan again!”

“Marcela is such a gift to the pet community and our family! My dog is not the easiest, he has lots of quirks, and Marcela truly understood his needs and eased my anxieties. The videos she shared with me daily looked like my pup was in a slice of heaven on earth. So grateful to know I have a safe place that I can trust to leave my dog; a place he enjoys as well! Thanks so much, Marcela!!”

“Merve was absolutely wonderful with our dog — hands down the best experience we’ve had with a sitter. She was always prompt with her communications, took the time to understand all the unique things our dog needs for care, and was super warm and caring for our dog. Plus, she consistently proactively provided picture and video updates so we knew all was good. Would highly recommend Merve!”

“Our dog Sammy loved his stay with Linda and her family. They sent us photos and videos updates daily, making us feel so relieved and happy. Their dog Jachik is also so friendly and loving. We would love to work with Linda again in the future! ❤️”

“Anne does a wonderful job. My chihuahua Sookie came home relaxed and did not have tear stains all over her eyes like she did with the last sitter. Lots of updates and pictures.”


“We had our pair of dogs stay with this family and they treated our dogs very nicely. A mature Golden retriever and a young and energetic aussie Sheppard. They exell at comunications, and are willing to go the extra mile. Highly recommend.”

“We are so glad we got Tracy again to watch our cats. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of and happy. We won't hesitate to ask Tracy to watch our babies next time we go out of town. Highly recommend her!”


“Aimee was very kind and professional! She showed up on time and did a meet and greet with me and our pets. You could tell she loves animals. She came on time for the visit and also stayed the whole time and sent updates. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Angela W. Is wonderful! I’ve used her services 3 times now and she has taken excellent care of my cats and gave me peace of mind while traveling. I will continue to ask her to help when needed. Great job!”

About: Cats have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently own four cats and have experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and temperaments. Friends, family, and clients often call me a "cat whisperer" because I have a special ability to connect with shy, fearful, and independent cats, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every cat is unique and respect their individual needs, routines, and boundaries. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers a quieter approach, I provide patient, compassionate care tailored to their personality. I have experience with feeding, litter box maintenance, administering basic medications, playtime, companionship, and monitoring for signs of stress or illness. I genuinely love animals and treat every cat as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your feline family member feels secure, happy, and well cared for while you're away. 🐾❤️
“Sharon is very conscientious & responsible. Communication was great on the front end & during our trip. Most importantly, our cat Roscoe was quite happy, as evidenced by the photos Sharon sent & his demeanor when we returned! Sharon also kindly watered our outdoor plants, which looked better when we returned than when we left. She also left our home immaculate. Great pet sitter!!”

About: Hello 👋 My daughter and I love caring for other fur babies and loving them as if they are our own. We know how important it is to your pets to give them the proper attention and play they deserve. I’ve grown up with rabbits, cats, and dogs. My first job in 5th grade was walking “Mike” the dog daily and I’ve continued to care for other pets over the years. I work throughout the week with flexibility to walk pups in the morning and evening. Weekends completely off to go on adventures with your fur baby. We love traveling to parks, dog beaches, and even for pup cups! I have a fenced in yard with artificial grass that dogs love to spend time sun bathing. A doggy pool so they can cool down in the Summer’s heat. A large dog park minutes away by foot so your loved one can socialize and run around with other dogs as well. If they choose not to do a dog park then plenty of space to be walked around the neighborhood taking in fresh scents.

“Anna B. is the best! We are so fortunate to have found her through Rover. Anna took good care of our cat while we were gone for the week. She took care of his needs and constantly updated me with photos and messages. While taking care of him, my cat needed veterninary care. She did not hesitate to bring him for an exam. Anna is a kind and compassionate person who loves animals. You will not be disappointed if you choose her to take care of your pet. The next time we go out of town, we will definitely call upon her services. We couldn't ask for anyone better for the job. Thank you Anna for taking such good care of my fur baby.”

About: I have been pet sitting all types of animals for over 20 years and love sharing my big backyard and pool with them.

While I do prefer medium sized dogs and up, smaller dogs can be accommodated however, depending on their size, they may not be able to freely run the entire backyard at this time as there are fence renovations in progress and a small, smart and determined tiny pup might find an escape route.

“Anne was an excellent day care sitter for Teddy. She used facetime for our meet and great. She asked all the right questions to understand Teddy's needs. She made her home very inviting for Teddy to have an enjoyable stay. She was good about sending updates and pictures for our comfort. She even gave good suggestions on food and other experiences. We recommend her and will request her again.”

“Corrina does a wonderful job with Teddy! He is high energy and has separation anxiety but she is able to settle him down and has him sitting on her lap and calm upon return. She is a very nice person and has a comfortable way. Her pet Romey is a very calm loving dog who takes Teddy in stride. We highly recommend Corinna as a sitter in her home.”

They took such great care of my little man and put my mind at ease with pupdates. Hope they’ll be available for us next year! Thank you so so much, Carol and Butch!”

“I had to go down to Carson City last minute and couldn’t find a sitter. Kari was incredibly sweet and I’m thankful she could take my pup at last minute request. She took him to the nearby grass area and sent pictures and videos of him playing. He seemed to be having a great time and was tired when we picked him up to take him home. She had plenty of toys for him to rummage through, as well. I highly reccomend Kari to anyone.”

Since I currently work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day and have a flexible schedule for walks and visits. I’m very active and love getting outside, so I’m always happy to go on walks, play, or just spend some time keeping your pet company. I’m also more than happy to follow their usual routine, whether that means a long walk, some playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply having someone around. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and will make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves to be treated with love, respect, and patience. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide care that’s tailored specifically to them. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in caring hands.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and have started taking care of them since I was 12. I live with and help care for 2 dogs currently and have spent my entire life caring for family pets. I currently have a full time job Monday-Friday, so I’m looking for weekend care for dogs. On the weekends I am completely free for care. I have a fenced yard at my apartment, and have been walking my dogs multiple times a day for over ten years. I believe getting them proper outdoor time and exercise is very important.
About: My husband, Trevor, and I both grew up with dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, fish, and he even had several birds! Over our years together we have loved three dogs, a bearded dragon, and a turtle. We have also been relied on, and trust by, many friends and family members to take care of their pets while at work or away. We have an especially soft spot for dogs and are taking our unbeatable belly rubs full-time with drop-in care and walking for small to medium (up to 40lbs) dogs. Larger dogs will be considered if they are a companion to a smaller dog. I also provide drop-in cat and other pet care upon request. Pet care is my (Morgan) full-time job, so your pet will receive my full time and attention during each play-date or walk. I am available Monday through Friday mornings and and afternoons from 6am-3pm, with some evening availability on Mondays and Fridays from 5-8pm. Additionally, I am available all day on most weekends. Please reach out with your pet’s needs - I can’t wait to meet them! Tail waggin walks, play, and cozy cuddles await! Pet care is my full-time job, so you can rest assured your pup will be well supervised and cared for throughout the play-date. I am available Monday through Friday mornings and and afternoons from 6am-3pm, with some evening availability on Mondays and Fridays from 5-8pm. Go on - schedule that tail waggin walk or play-date! When you book a walk or play-date with me - you and your pet become family. You can expect the same level of care and respect as we give to our baby boys. Barker, our chunky frenchie, and Gus, our hilarious little chorkie, receive daily walks and playtime at the dog park and yard (weather accommodating). When the rain or heat keeps us in, Barker loves to chase a ball or play tug of war, while Gus enjoys scratches and a cozy nap! Whatever your pet’s speed - I am here to accommodate and ensure they receive the highest level of care, always.

“We were so Happy to find Kathy & her husband Roy! They have him all the special loving that he needs and kept us updated with daily reports and pics to keep us connected w our dog Jack while we were away. Beautiful, clean home. Loving and attentive couple! Thank you both for all you do!! Todd, Michelle & Jack?”


“Thank you to Ray and his son for watching our dog over Thanksgiving. We really appreciated the daily updates especially for our dog who can be very anxious. They even got her a couple new toys to play with.”

“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!”

“Heather took great care of our goldendoodle, Biscuit, who enjoyed her dogs, as well as her pool! Biscuit enjoyed swimming with “Leo” and was happy to be able to sleep with Heather. They took a walk in the neighborhood as well, which is always a good thing for Biscuit. Biscuit came home well exercised, and had some nice long naps. We look forward to booking with Heather again soon!”

“Finn really seemed to have a great time at Morgan’s! She sent plenty of pictures and updates. He was able to get out and stretch his LONG legs! We will definitely be using Morgan again!”

“Marcela is such a gift to the pet community and our family! My dog is not the easiest, he has lots of quirks, and Marcela truly understood his needs and eased my anxieties. The videos she shared with me daily looked like my pup was in a slice of heaven on earth. So grateful to know I have a safe place that I can trust to leave my dog; a place he enjoys as well! Thanks so much, Marcela!!”

“Our dog Sammy loved his stay with Linda and her family. They sent us photos and videos updates daily, making us feel so relieved and happy. Their dog Jachik is also so friendly and loving. We would love to work with Linda again in the future! ❤️”


“We had our pair of dogs stay with this family and they treated our dogs very nicely. A mature Golden retriever and a young and energetic aussie Sheppard. They exell at comunications, and are willing to go the extra mile. Highly recommend.”

“Morgan took good care of my boy! I could tell from the daily pictures that he was doing fine throughout his 1 week stay. I highly recommend Morgan for overnight dog boarding.”


“Carol took such great care of Farley. He had a wonderful time and to be honest I’m surprised he came home with us, he loved hanging out with her and her husband so much!”


“I am a first time Rover user and booked Kelly for our 11 year old hound mix, Bruno. She was a great communicator and kept me updated on how he was doing with texts and pictures. He did great and I am happy to use Kelly for our future trips.”


“Suzanne’s attentive care and regular communication through videos and pictures demonstrate a genuine commitment to Buddy’s well-being. It's reassuring to find a sitter who treats your dog as part of their own family. Highly recommend Suzanne for her excellent service and loving approach to Buddy and I will gladly use her again.”

“Stephany did a phenomenal job keeping our French Bulldog. She communicated throughout the day with pictures! She genuinely loves what she does. Highly recommend her. She has heart of gold.”

“Tara is a saint! I don’t know what I’d do without her! She’s watched my 2 doodles several times, but this time she literally came and picked them up spur of the moment when I was sick! Shes the best and a life saver”

“Barley loves staying with Michelle and Dane. Michelle is amazing with pictures, videos, and updates. They are also great with accommodating last minute changes in travel time.”

“Deborah is very attentive and caring. She spends a lot of time at home with the dogs she has and is very good at timely communication. She is pleasant and trustworthy. Thank you.”

“Nicholas is very friendly and communicative. He sent regular daily updates via photo and video of my cat. My cat warmed up to the space within a couple days and was way more comfortable there than we would’ve been at a kennel. Highly recommend for a safe and comfortable place for your pet!”


“As always Marybeth & Russ we’re absolutely wonderful with Angel. They provided daily updates and treated Angel as their own. She was excited to go back and we will definitely be utilizing Marybeth and Russ again! Thank you for taking such great care of Angel!”
