Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sanibel
“Olga truly is the best!! Sets the bar HIGH! But more than that, our Finn loves it when he is there! We have never seen him excited for anything other than his ‘dad’ well…. We pulled up to Olga’s house and is excitement was super obvious and couldn’t be contained…. And when he comes back home, he seems better than when he left us. His breed is full of energy… and Olga still loves him and cares for him so well. THANK YOU”
“Charlie loves going to Sandra's house. And I love taking him there. She is flexible and accommodating to my schedule. She seems to truly care about Charlie and isn't at all overwhelmed with his excitement level.”
“There are no words to describe how more than 100% satisfied we were with Tom & Lyndsay, they are very nice & caring people. We went to their house before our booking for a meet & greet with our boy Ralphie, & we knew immediately they were our new dog sitters. Their house is extremely clean & beautiful, & completely set up to accommodate our beloved fur children. They do not believe in using pet cages (as most pet sitters do) & they treat them like their own dogs. We felt so at ease knowing our boy was in the care of loving hands. They sent us messages & pictures showing us our boy relaxing on the sofa as if he were at home, & I'm sure he felt right at home as well. I highly recommend them if you are looking to leave your fur child in the very best hands of loving care. Thank you very much Tom & Lyndsay, you guys are truly the very best of the best!”
“It was so hard to leave Stella for such a long period, but immediately relieved when the pictures and videos started coming in. Stella had a blast. She fit right in with the family.. I think she actually looked better picking her up than when I dropped her off. I could tell she had been brushed and combed, well taken care of.”
“Carla and her family were amazing with Sky! Sky was so happy in the pictures Carla sent to us. Thank you so much for taking great care of her. See you again in a couple of weeks. ❤️❤️”
“I never give anyone 5 stars, but Karen and her husband are amazing!! Cole had the best time. We received many videos of him playing. He was very well taken care of, and we will definitely be using their services again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From the moment I dropped them off, I felt confident they were in great hands. Throughout my weekend trip, I received regular updates and plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was friendly, communicative, and clearly cared about my dogs’ well-being. The photos showed them looking comfortable, relaxed, and happy, and when I picked them up, they were happy and well cared for. It’s obvious she treats the pets in her care with kindness and attention. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again in the future!”
“Melisa was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Leo! She spent so much quality time with him….playing, walking, and really making sure he felt comfortable and cared for. I could tell he was happy and well loved while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. It means a lot to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and Melisa truly did that. I would 100% trust her with Leo again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🐾💛”
“We were so nervous to leave our dog for the first time but Destini was absolutely wonderful! We felt better knowing she was going to be with him most of the time and sent us lots of picture updates that we loved getting!!! We will definitely use her again”
“I'm so glad we found Krista to care for our dog while we were out of town, she took great care of him! My dog usually takes some time to trust people but he warmed up to Krista right away, it was obvious to me too how much she loves and knows about dogs. Her communication was wonderful and she provided me with an update and photos each day, which I really appreciated. She has a very lovely and clean home with a nice fenced yard. I highly recommend Krista to take care of your”
“Emily, Aaron, their two boys, and their little Yorkie were super to deal with. They have a wonderful home, and yard, set up very nicely for my dog Snoogums to visit. I felt very comfortable with the arrangement. They sent me photos throughout the stay, with my dog playing, going on walks, sleeping. and playing. I felt comfort while on my trip with their communications. I would definitely repeat with them while away on my next trip. A definite A+ Dale & Snoogums”
“When we read all of these impossible reviews we thought to ourselves no one can be this good. And all honesty we have come to realize that every Star that Claudia has she earned it. She is the Dog whisperer in flying colors. Our dog is 12 years old and he does not want to stay with anyone. She was able to win him over and he actually did not want to leave her. Even though the bonus was our little 5-month-old puppy who is so lovable that he'll make you fall right in love with him in just in the first two minutes of meeting him. We were really worried about that 12-year-old who never stays with anyone. Claudia is top-notch and I must say she keeps you up to date with pictures and texts and these dogs are overwhelmed with patience, love, and understanding. Along with toys and treats etc. She and her family will be the only one taking care of our dogs from now on.”
“Jessica is amazing! She was able to watch my kitten on short notice and took such good care of her. Jessica checked in with updates, photos, and a video throughout the day. As a 1st time Rover user, this was greatly appreciated because I was nervous about having someone new watch my baby. Jessica's caring nature and love of animals shines through. Will definitely be using her again the next time I need a sitter for my fur baby!”
“Cesar was amazing with Hershey! From the moment we met, I could tell he genuinely cares about animals. He kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, and Hershey looked so happy and comfortable. It meant a lot knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Cesar and would absolutely trust him with Hershey again. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby! 🐾❤️”
“Jada was very kind, responsive, and kept us updated on our dogs’ daily activities. She sent us pictures throughout their stay and, most importantly, kept them safe and made sure all of their medications were given on schedule. She keeps her availability updated, and we were so grateful that she was able to take our dogs on short notice. We also loved that she has a fenced backyard and friendly dogs for ours to play with. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with Jada again!”
“This was our first boarding experience using Rover. We are very pleased with the ease of the reservation system. From coordinating a “meet and greet” with Jill to drop off and pick up we are very pleased. Jill sent a photo of Mocha while we were away. All seemed to go very well and we will definitely request Jill to keep Mocha for us when we have dog sitting needs!”

“Beth is amazing, our communication was great, she perfectly follow all my requests. Very professional! She made me feel safe and secure!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED HER… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ a huge thanks from me, kyra and Minnie Pearl?”
About: I have taken care of/walked dogs since I was 7. I’ve grown up with dogs and have never lived without one in my home. Many neighbors and friends trust me with their pets to either walk or care for them from either a day at a time or weeks. During the week I have sports and school but weekends are reserved to make sure the care of your pet(s) is received properly and carefully I am more than happy to play with any pet to ensure he/she is happy and healthy while I care for them. If you have special requests, I can make it a priority to fulfill them.
“This was our second time having Kat watch our 3 kitties and she was amazing, just like the first time! She has gotten to know each cat and their personalities and quirks, and she shows so much care and concern for them, texting right away if anything seems off about their behavior or eating habits. I love knowing they're in such great hands while we're away, and it's so nice knowing we'll come home to a clean house and happy cats! Kat also administers medication to one of our cats and supplements to another, and I feel great knowing I can trust her with this. I highly recommend Kat!”

“Olga was absolutely wonderful with Ruth and very accommodating to my unpredictable schedule at times. Ruth was newly adopted and had a couple issues, so I wanted to make her transition to her new life as easy as possible.

About: I have over 40 years’ experience caring for pets. I've often watched friends and family dogs.

I have plenty of free time and I’ve always enjoyed getting out for a dog walk in the early morning and late afternoon. I'm committed to loving care and safety for my clients' pets. I always enjoy long walks with the energetic fast pace Rovers. I'm always cautious to have them on a proper leash and collar or harness during their walks.

Tell me your dog's needs and habits and I will do my very best to make them feel right at home.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, not just pets, but family. I grew up around dogs, volunteered with the Humane Society throughout college, and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs needing extra medical care. One of my huskies developed diabetes and eventually went blind, so I became very comfortable administering medications and injections, following strict routines, and giving patient, loving care. I lost my sweet Shih Tzu after 17 amazing years together, and now I have two spoiled pups of my own, Gracie and Lily. I truly understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every animal like they are my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available most weekends, with weekday availability on many days as well. I’m happy to work with pet parents whenever possible and always do my best to accommodate schedules, routines, and special care needs. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, energy levels, and personalities so each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I live in a very dog-friendly area in Fort Myers with plenty of space for walks, playtime, and exercise. I always prioritize safety, supervision, communication, and making sure your pet feels at home.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and currently have a dog named Cash and a cat named Teddy. I also previously cared for an English Mastiff, so I’m comfortable with both large and small animals. Being a huge animal lover, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering lots of attention and affection, and keeping pets calm and happy in their routine. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always keep owners updated for peace of mind. 🐾 I work from home, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. My routine includes morning walks around 8 AM, feeding, and usually time outside for exercise, whether that’s a walk or a trip to the dog park. I’m very hands-on with animals and make sure they get both structure and plenty of affection. I also have my own pup, so I’m experienced with daily care, routines, and keeping pets happy, active, and comfortable in a home environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home or yours, I make sure the environment is clean, pet-proofed, and calm. I keep doors and gates secured, watch pets closely during play, and follow their routines exactly as you describe to help them feel safe. I’m experienced with puppies, cats, and multi-pet homes, so I’m always careful with feeding times, introductions, and energy levels. I give constant supervision, lots of reassurance, and make sure every pet has their own comfortable space to relax. You can expect clear communication and regular photo updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe.

Whenever I am needed I am able to drop what I’m doing and do what I need to for anyone and their pets! I am a loving fun person! I will do whatever is needed to take care of your pet. I love walks and playing outside with dogs.
About: I have two large-breed dogs, one is a three year old Cane Corso mix and our other girl is almost ten (a Lab mix)! Both are rescues from the south, so I have a lot of experience working with anxious dogs, puppies, and some senior care. I grew up with large black labs, so I've had dogs in my life, for my entire life! I run my own business and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule. I can also take your dog for a longer hike, snifaris, and more! I do not host other dogs in my own home, but I would be sure to have a consultation with the client ahead of any pet sitting to go over routines, expectations, feeding schedule, etc. It's not fair to expect a dog to adjust to your schedule when you are the newbie in their life!
About: I’ve taken great care of animals my whole life from as small as hamsters to as big as horses! I love dog sitting for friends and family! I’m a full time server/bartender, however on the days I have off I love to stay busy so with my free time I would love to hang out with some furry friends:) I have a safe neighborhood to walk your furry friends as well as I love going to the dog parks and I have a ton of friends with dogs who would love to meet new friends.
About: I am a huge animal lover looking to make some extra money. My family has 2 longhaired dachshunds, Lucy and Bailey. I am very responsible and will take care of your pet as if they were my own! Having recently graduated from PA school, I pretty much have open availability right now. I am pretty flexible and am available most weekdays/nights and weekends. I will provide plenty of potty breaks, play time & feedings. I will do my best to make your dog feel as safe & comfortable as possible!
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. I am a dog mom to an adorable Aussie! I’ve raised and trained two puppies (my own dog and a golden retriever puppy). I absolutely love puppies and providing them with a routine. You can rest assured your pup will be in a good home! I don’t have experience with senior dogs or dogs with special needs so please keep this in mind! I make pets priority. I will take your dog for a long walk in the neighborhood. We can play in the backyard as well. If you prefer, I can take them to the beach as well! Just say the word! I live on Sanibel Island. I am happy to walk your dog in the neighborhood, play in the yard or pool, or even go for a beach walk! Your dog will get plenty of exercise and potty breaks!

“Charlie loves going to Sandra's house. And I love taking him there. She is flexible and accommodating to my schedule. She seems to truly care about Charlie and isn't at all overwhelmed with his excitement level.”
“There are no words to describe how more than 100% satisfied we were with Tom & Lyndsay, they are very nice & caring people. We went to their house before our booking for a meet & greet with our boy Ralphie, & we knew immediately they were our new dog sitters. Their house is extremely clean & beautiful, & completely set up to accommodate our beloved fur children. They do not believe in using pet cages (as most pet sitters do) & they treat them like their own dogs. We felt so at ease knowing our boy was in the care of loving hands. They sent us messages & pictures showing us our boy relaxing on the sofa as if he were at home, & I'm sure he felt right at home as well. I highly recommend them if you are looking to leave your fur child in the very best hands of loving care. Thank you very much Tom & Lyndsay, you guys are truly the very best of the best!”
“It was so hard to leave Stella for such a long period, but immediately relieved when the pictures and videos started coming in. Stella had a blast. She fit right in with the family.. I think she actually looked better picking her up than when I dropped her off. I could tell she had been brushed and combed, well taken care of.”
“Carla and her family were amazing with Sky! Sky was so happy in the pictures Carla sent to us. Thank you so much for taking great care of her. See you again in a couple of weeks. ❤️❤️”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From the moment I dropped them off, I felt confident they were in great hands. Throughout my weekend trip, I received regular updates and plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was friendly, communicative, and clearly cared about my dogs’ well-being. The photos showed them looking comfortable, relaxed, and happy, and when I picked them up, they were happy and well cared for. It’s obvious she treats the pets in her care with kindness and attention. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again in the future!”
“We were so nervous to leave our dog for the first time but Destini was absolutely wonderful! We felt better knowing she was going to be with him most of the time and sent us lots of picture updates that we loved getting!!! We will definitely use her again”
“I'm so glad we found Krista to care for our dog while we were out of town, she took great care of him! My dog usually takes some time to trust people but he warmed up to Krista right away, it was obvious to me too how much she loves and knows about dogs. Her communication was wonderful and she provided me with an update and photos each day, which I really appreciated. She has a very lovely and clean home with a nice fenced yard. I highly recommend Krista to take care of your”
“When we read all of these impossible reviews we thought to ourselves no one can be this good. And all honesty we have come to realize that every Star that Claudia has she earned it. She is the Dog whisperer in flying colors. Our dog is 12 years old and he does not want to stay with anyone. She was able to win him over and he actually did not want to leave her. Even though the bonus was our little 5-month-old puppy who is so lovable that he'll make you fall right in love with him in just in the first two minutes of meeting him. We were really worried about that 12-year-old who never stays with anyone. Claudia is top-notch and I must say she keeps you up to date with pictures and texts and these dogs are overwhelmed with patience, love, and understanding. Along with toys and treats etc. She and her family will be the only one taking care of our dogs from now on.”
“Cesar was amazing with Hershey! From the moment we met, I could tell he genuinely cares about animals. He kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, and Hershey looked so happy and comfortable. It meant a lot knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Cesar and would absolutely trust him with Hershey again. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby! 🐾❤️”
“Jada was very kind, responsive, and kept us updated on our dogs’ daily activities. She sent us pictures throughout their stay and, most importantly, kept them safe and made sure all of their medications were given on schedule. She keeps her availability updated, and we were so grateful that she was able to take our dogs on short notice. We also loved that she has a fenced backyard and friendly dogs for ours to play with. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with Jada again!”
“This was our first boarding experience using Rover. We are very pleased with the ease of the reservation system. From coordinating a “meet and greet” with Jill to drop off and pick up we are very pleased. Jill sent a photo of Mocha while we were away. All seemed to go very well and we will definitely request Jill to keep Mocha for us when we have dog sitting needs!”
“Erika (and her daughter!) were absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Covey. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout his stay, and it was so clear that they both genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. They treated him like family — playful, loving, and attentive to all his little quirks. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’d trust Erika and her daughter with Covey anytime and can’t recommend them enough! 💛🐶”
“Carrie was absolutely phenomenal. She took such amazing care of my doggy, and went above and beyond. Great communication and great care. I cannot thank her enough.”
“Tia was great! She watched our 3 dogs (Husky mix, Lab mix, and Dachshund) while we were gone on vacation over a week. I received updates and photos during their stay letting me know my dogs were doing good. Tia having a fenced in backyard was a huge plus for me since my dogs are potty trained, I refuse to have my dogs in a kennel all day. If you want your pets to feel at home while you are away then reach out to Tia for sure, thanks Tia!”
“Nina is wonderful! I get pics and updates of my pup all day long and I know he gets attention and love all day long. I highly highly recommend Nina, especially if you are a nervous dog mama. He/she will be in great hands!!”
“Ross was amazing with our dog!! Sent us so many updates and I felt completely at peace being away from her for the weekend. Definitely my favorite sitter and I can tell Dolly had a blast!”
“It was our first time using Natasha and Gaspare to board our miniature Daschund and it was a wonderful experience. They kept me updated every evening with news of Lady and with pictures which was great. They even bathed her for me before picking her up. I feel comfortable in recommending them and plan to use them again going forward.”
“Diana was great taking care Dexter. Everything great. We received daily pics and videos of Dexter. He also got a grooming while there. Thank you so much for your great service.”
