“Brittany and her family were great! Luna loved being there as she got to play with the boys and Mia. She had lots of walks and plenty of time playing fetch, her favorite game. We know this because Brittany kept us up to date with lots of photos and videos as well as messages on how it was going. We have found our dog sitter for life! Thanks you Brittany!”
“Jennifer took care of Coco for three days and was excellent. Very attentive, loving, and responsible. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. Highly recommended!”

I am grateful for how well he cared for my puppies and the positive impact he made on all of our lives. Thank you, Bob ?”
“Wrigley seemed to have a good time socializing with Erin and Stephen's dogs. She was well taken care of, and she liked Stephen a lot. She had plenty of space to run and play in their fenced back yard. I don't know how they kept her out of their swimming pool as she loves to swim. We will definitely use them again for dog boarding.”
“Kathy and Roy are the nicest people you can have your pets with. They made my 2 dogs comfortable and send lots of pics and updates about them. Zoey and Charlee had the best time with them .Thanks again Kathy and Roy .”
“Superb service. Jeanne is so patient and loving to all the pets. She treats them all like family and her own. She is 24/7 and ensures your family pet is well taken care of during the entire stay . Jeanne is both knowledgeable on caring for pets and is a worth of information on maintaining the best treatment and training for animals. Without hesitation the best sitter found and highly recommend her service.”

“Angela took care of Lucky on very short notice and I’m so grateful she was able to help. She sent pictures and updates, made sure he was fed, and got him out for walks. Communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear Lucky was in good hands. I’d absolutely book with Angela again!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She knows dogs well and is super friendly and compassionate. I trusted her completely with my 3 fur babies while I flew home for the holidays. She even gave them all stockings with a toy, treat and blanket in them😊 So sweet! She kept me updated always with texts and pictures and I never was worried my whole trip. Her children are so sweet and loved on my fur kids and I was so glad everyone became good friends. I 100% recommend booking with Taylor if you are in need of fantastic sitter in Port Charlotte!”
“They took great care of our dogs. If we ever need a sitter again I would 100% go back to them. We loved how they updated us and kept us informed of how our dogs were doing!”
“Linda and her family once again took excellent care of our 2 dogs for several weeks. They are very patient and kind with our babies and always provide them with excellent care and lots of attention. We always appreciate that Linda sends us updates, photos and videos so we know how the dogs are doing and we never have to worry if they are being treated well. We know they are happy and comfortable and our dogs love to be with Linda. She is a 2nd mom to them now after taking care of them many times. We highly recommend Linda - she always goes above and beyond and truly loves animals and wants the very best for them, which she provides!”
“Monica has watched Lucy a few times and she is great about sending updates and pictures. This last stay she contacted me my Freshpet food was moldy. She went to 3,stores to find food for Lucy. In the middle of this I told her to just feed her some chicken. Monica insisted on finding the right food for Lucy. She was truly concerned about our dogs well being. I so appreciate her! ❤️”
“Robin P was the best person I could’ve chosen to watch my dog Spencer. Spencer loved being with her and she sent me videos and text daily to let me know how Spencer was doing! She treated Spencer like it was her own dog, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch Spencer for us while we were out of town! We have actually booked her again for the beginning of the year when we go on a cruise! Thank you Robin for doing such a great job with our fur baby!!”
“I don’t know where to begin with my review so, I’ll just start. From the moment we went to our “Meet and greet”, to the moment we returned from vacations Floyd and wife were wonderful. They sent us photos of Jax every day. It was reassuring seeing him playing and going on walks. It left my heart and mind at ease, so I could enjoy our family vacation. I HIGHLY recommend Floyd as a sitter. I’ll definitely use them again. Thanks So Much Floyd ??”
“This was our first experience with a dog sitter and Suzanne was phenomenal! She had great communication throughout the process, was very easy to work with, and was accommodating to all our dogs needs. Our dog, Rosie, was all smiles when we picked her up and it was obvious she was well taken care of during her stay. We have zero reason to use anyone else in the future. I would definitely recommend Suzanne if you need a sitter.”
“Marcella and Ty are an outstanding couple, very loving and skilled with the dogs, I was happy to find out they spent time doing some training with my very large and full of energy pups..their property is gorgeous with lots of room to run and play! Looking forward to doing some daycare as well as boarding. Highly recommend!!”
“Bentley seemed to have a wonderful time staying and playing with Bri's 2 dogs Captain and Nemo while we were out of town. We appreciated the initial meet and greet and photo updates,which gave us piece of mind that he would be and was well taken care of. From belly rubs to giving him his familiar treats, we appreciated it all. We will be back!”
“Dana accepted our request within a week of the stay, so we were so thankful she could fit us in last minute. Our cat is very nervous around new people and hides the first couple days but Dana let us know that she came out to eat and sit near her which doesn’t happen everytime. We felt a good energy the moment we met Dana and felt comfortable leaving our baby there with her. She sent us photos and words each day of the stay, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out again if needed. Thank you so much Dana!!!!”

About: I have had both cats and dogs My entire life. After 16 AMAZING years with my dogs Axel and Lugnut, I have found myself with an empty nest. I'm not quite ready to adopt another yet, it is just too soon. However, I would love to hang out with your dog (or dogs!). I have experience with dogs both big and small, young and old, and my sweet girl who just passed was deaf, so I have experience with special needs. I have successfully fostered high risk dogs helping them find their perfect forever home. 🐾 I am a stay at home caretaker for my father-in-law, so I can provide around the clock care for your sweet puppers. I am also quite active, and love to take walks, so your good boy or girl will think they are on vacation! I have an unfenced yard, and I live within a 3 minute walk to a large park. My neighborhood is quiet and is sheltered from busy streets. I would love to have your dog come visit!
“As you know, it's so stressful trying to find someone who will care for your pets like you do, but Shari was absolutely fantastic for us! I've never seen our two cats act so well adjusted coming back from time away like they have with Shari taking care of them- We knew we were in perfect hands when we met her- She really cares about pets and their well-being. --Great communication, professionalism, and showed great care! We couldn't recommend her more! Thx Shari-”
“We could not have been happier with Dana’s drop ins! We went on a trip and it was going to be the longest we had been away in a while so we were a little anxious about leaving our two cats . Dana sent pictures and an update every time she stopped by which was great. Our cats loved her and will definitely be in contact when we go out of town again . She also went above and beyond to bring in any packages we had received & offered to water our plants ! 10/10 she was great”
About: From new kittens to senior cats, I know that they are all special in their own way. With having my own cats for 8+ years and 4+ years of veterinary medicine experience, I’m confident in being able to handle the needs of your furry loved ones.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Rotonda
“We were very happy with the care Cosmo received from Barbara. She welcomed him into their home and treated him like their own. She’s very friendly and easy to communicate with. I will be using her again when the need arises.”
“Erin and Stephen were great and treated Scooby like their own baby. Great communication and always kept us up to date with video and pictures. Would use them again next time we're in the area.”
“We used Eva for our 2 Frenchie's and she was wonderful! Since this was our first time using her I was a little nervous, but she put me right at ease. Since we have a newly rescued pup we had some concerns and made us feel at very comfortable when we dropped them off. The pictures and video's convinced us they were in good hands and having a wonderful time and allowed us to enjoy ourselves for the day and not worry about the fur babies.”

About: I absolutely love dogs. I have owned dogs my entire life. My dogs were always well behaved.I can provide whatever care they need . (Medications etc)We are very active family, will let your pouch swim in the pool, go out on the boat, walks on the beach, if that’s what your fur baby enjoys I am retired, have one dog that is included in our activities. Dog care is part of my daily routine. Have only one dog, but an additional pup visitor would be enjoyed by our whole family, and treated as family I do not have a fenced yard, fortunately my dog does not leave the yard, but he is not left alone outside. I will insure the safety of your pup in our yard. I can let them go potty on a leash, I also have a long lead that they can use if you wish. I have a screened in lanai with pool also. I’d they use pee pads, that’s ok too, if they use pee pads or crate, it would require you to supply
“We are so grateful to have found Taylor to take care of our fur baby Bowser. He has really bad separation anxiety so he can’t be left alone. Taylor made sure he received lots of play, attention, and love. He seemed very happy when we picked him up. She sent lots of photos and was very communicative. We will be calling her again next time we need a sitter 🫶”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. It started with cats and then fell in love with dogs. I’ve raised and trained 3 female German shepherd dogs. I’ve since decided to try the yin to my yang and now have a male toy poodle. He is beyond spoiled and I take him everywhere. Gizmo is with me full time. Boozer is my boyfriend’s dog that is often with us too. Boozer and Gizmo prefer to be together versus separate. I can easily dog sit during the week. I currently work from home and Gizmo could use some company while I work. I generally like my weekends to myself but for the right situation I could be available. I have a covered patio and pool with access to fenced back yard for your dog to play. I would supervise the times they need to go out due to the pool.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets i’m currently working but i’ll make sure you and your furry friends have all the love they need, i’m basically available whenever i have time i have an big apartment and it has a very big yard with trees and stuff nice neighborhood pet friendly and i love pets of course
“Layla has a wonderful experience with Kimber. Layla has some special needs and Kimber was attentive a loving. Layla was so happy when I picked her up. Tha k you Kimber!!”
“Sophie's daycare time with Connie went perfectly. Sophie was happy on arrival and, though happy on my return to pick her up, seemed totally content to stay if she needed to. Connie's home is clean and as well-cared for as her canine clients. I'm so glad I found her on Rover and highly recommend her services.”
“Ana was amazing! We met her a couple days before and she and her dog Lex immediately connected with our pup, and then this morning when we went to drop our pup off, she happily trotted in the house to meet Lex instead of freaking out like she normally does when we leave her! She had a great day, we got a bunch of pictures, and she was clearly very happy when we picked her up. Very glad to have found Ana!”
“Bryanna took wonderful care of Gilda, my 10 month old English Cocker Spaniel, for two days this week. Bryanna communicated extremely well. She provides secure indoor and outdoor space, and lots of play activities. After the first day, Gilda was extremely eager to return to Bryanna’s care for the second day. And, after the second day, Gilda was exhausted from 2 straight days of play and activities. I will book again with Bryanna, and recommend that you book with her too. Have fun in Punta Gorda, while knowing your precious fur baby is being well cared for by Bryanna.”

About: I have done a lot of pet and house sitting over the past years. I also have volunteered at various animal shelters and walked dogs. I'm very intuitive to pets and their needs. I had 7 siberians (yes at the same time) so also am wise to high energy pets. I would consider negotiating outside my area to pet sit for a higher fee.

I can also transport. At this time I don't take pets in my home... it's possible in the future but not at this time......thank you for the option to do so

About: Hello Pet Parents, my name is Elianna Shaffer and I’m excited to make new furry friends. I grew up with two cats and a dog. Now, as a young newlywed, we have our own kitty named Milo. He is our sweet, fun-loving, all black Bombay. I love cats and hope to foster kittens in the near future. Although I’m more familiar with cats, I’m ready to step out of the box and take care of some canines. I’m looking to walk dogs, cat sit, and other services upon request. I have experience with pet sitting for family and friends. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and a bird. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!! I occasionally work at a Coffee shop from 7:30am-2:30pm. My schedule vary’s from week to week and I might be off as early as 11:30am depending on how busy the days are.

About: Your Pet's Home Away From Home with a Lifetime Animal Enthusiast I'd be honored to welcome your beloved pets into my home! My life has been devoted to animals, starting on a ranch where I gained hands-on experience with everything from horses, dogs, and cats to chickens and beyond. As a retired horse trainer and long-time dog breeder, I bring a wealth of knowledge in animal health, behavior, and communication. I've personally trained service dogs for mobility, and I'm passionate about helping dogs overcome behavioral challenges. With your permission, I can address specific training needs your dog might have, such as potty training, leash manners, or breaking other bad habits, ensuring their time with me is both enjoyable and productive. Rest assured, your pets will be treated as cherished members of my family during their stay. Our home is a calm, adult-only environment, providing a peaceful and safe space for your companions. I'm available at anytime to make sure your pet is well taken care of. I have dedicated my life to animals and I love it. With many years of dedicated experience across a diverse range of animals, I offer exceptional pet care grounded in health, compassion, and understanding. My extensive background includes not only general animal well-being but also specialized expertise in handling animals with specific needs and successfully training dogs and other animals through positive methods. We do not have any small children or any children. Just adults that love animals. I'm committed to ensuring every pet under my care feels loved, safe, and comfortable. My flexible availability means I can accommodate your pets' schedules and individual requirements at any time. For larger companions, I also have several giant crates to ensure their comfort if needed. Dogs will be crated at night only if they need to be. If your dog is potty trained and can be trusted being loose in a house overnight then they will not be crated unless the pet owner wants them to be crated. Pets always have fresh water and are fed as scheduled by the pet owner. We do board cats and they are kept in a seprate area of our home. We have a very large lani and pool. Your pets will never be unsupervised when they are in our pool area. I have a very large screened in lani that the dogs can run and play in. I do have a small fenced area for little dogs. I do not leave the dogs outside unattended due to risk of over heating, escaping, cane toads, poisonous snakes and fire ants. I walk the dogs as many times as they need to, to go potty. I've been told by multiple pet parents that other sitters just put their dogs out in a yard unsupervised and their dogs were attacked by other dogs. I'm always supervising your dogs.

“Wrigley seemed to have a good time socializing with Erin and Stephen's dogs. She was well taken care of, and she liked Stephen a lot. She had plenty of space to run and play in their fenced back yard. I don't know how they kept her out of their swimming pool as she loves to swim. We will definitely use them again for dog boarding.”
“Kathy and Roy are the nicest people you can have your pets with. They made my 2 dogs comfortable and send lots of pics and updates about them. Zoey and Charlee had the best time with them .Thanks again Kathy and Roy .”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job of caring for Buddy she is very loving and caring. I give her the highest review. You can confidently leave your pets with Jennifer and know that they are safe and well loved!”
“They took great care of our dogs. If we ever need a sitter again I would 100% go back to them. We loved how they updated us and kept us informed of how our dogs were doing!”
“Linda and her family once again took excellent care of our 2 dogs for several weeks. They are very patient and kind with our babies and always provide them with excellent care and lots of attention. We always appreciate that Linda sends us updates, photos and videos so we know how the dogs are doing and we never have to worry if they are being treated well. We know they are happy and comfortable and our dogs love to be with Linda. She is a 2nd mom to them now after taking care of them many times. We highly recommend Linda - she always goes above and beyond and truly loves animals and wants the very best for them, which she provides!”
“Monica has watched Lucy a few times and she is great about sending updates and pictures. This last stay she contacted me my Freshpet food was moldy. She went to 3,stores to find food for Lucy. In the middle of this I told her to just feed her some chicken. Monica insisted on finding the right food for Lucy. She was truly concerned about our dogs well being. I so appreciate her! ❤️”
“This was our first experience with a dog sitter and Suzanne was phenomenal! She had great communication throughout the process, was very easy to work with, and was accommodating to all our dogs needs. Our dog, Rosie, was all smiles when we picked her up and it was obvious she was well taken care of during her stay. We have zero reason to use anyone else in the future. I would definitely recommend Suzanne if you need a sitter.”
“Marcella and Ty are an outstanding couple, very loving and skilled with the dogs, I was happy to find out they spent time doing some training with my very large and full of energy pups..their property is gorgeous with lots of room to run and play! Looking forward to doing some daycare as well as boarding. Highly recommend!!”
“Dana accepted our request within a week of the stay, so we were so thankful she could fit us in last minute. Our cat is very nervous around new people and hides the first couple days but Dana let us know that she came out to eat and sit near her which doesn’t happen everytime. We felt a good energy the moment we met Dana and felt comfortable leaving our baby there with her. She sent us photos and words each day of the stay, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out again if needed. Thank you so much Dana!!!!”
“Our dog absolutely loved his stay at Lily’s house. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future. She made us feel so comfortable. He’s only six months old and she took impeccable care of him. We also appreciated all of the updates.”
“Krista provided excellent care for Bailey. He enjoyed his stay immensely and was a bit sad to leave since he had so much fun. Krista provided daily updates and was very accommodating when my flight got delayed. Highly recommend her services. Thank you, Krista!”

“Aliyana was absolutely amazing with my boy Kenai super attentive towards him and he had friends there too with her animals. She also sends pictures and videos throughout the day so your always in the loop of things. She took him out to play and on multiple walks and treats. I know this says five stars but she deserves more 100/100 Ladies and Gentlemen your pets deserve someone amazing and she is all that and some. Thank you for taking such great care of my boy.
