“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!!”

“Steve and Cindy were great sitters for our dog. They are super easy to work with and did a great job keeping us apprised of how much fun our dog had with them. Would totally recommend.”

Sandy J.

“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: I have always had a dog in my life since I was born but my caretaking journey started when a little corgi entered into my world. She was an escape artist, food fiend, she couldn’t be left for too long and she battled anxiety her whole life, but she brought me the most joy. She taught me attentiveness, and limitless love. She recently crossed the rainbow bridge so I have been missing the presence of my fury friend but am excited to hang out with doggies again!!! Skills include: puppy care, senior care, special needs. During the school year, I am a grad student and my weekends are usually free. I have class 9-5:30pm tue-fri with a 2 hour break 12-2pm everyday. Mondays are always free. I appreciate a list of instructions specifically stating your pets schedule and needs. The more detailed the better:) I love to take videos and pictures to keep you updated through the process. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your baby with a stranger.

“First time using Stephanie and Elizabeth. They were referred to us and we are so grateful. The pictures and updates really helped to know that our pup was cared for like family.”

Jen L.

“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!”

Stephanie D.

“We left our shy dog with viktoryia for 3 weeks when we were out of the country. My dog is a rescue and while a sweet girl, she only likes one person - me. She did very well because Victoryia has a way with dogs. She sent some pictures and videos and I could tell my shy little dog felt right at home. Your dear dog will be in good hands at this lovely rover home.”

Bernice J.

“The best sitters I’ve ever experienced!! They sent pictures and videos of our little pup multiple times a day, he was constantly getting exercise during his visit, and they even taught him “paw”! We can tell our pup had a great time with them and on top of that they were very communicative and flexible. Cannot say enough good things! 🫶”

Autum D.

“Leslie was incredible and so helpful with Milo. We had the unusual request of having her take him after our wedding ceremony and she did amazing. Highly recommend!”

Gabriela C.

“Eve gave me a lot of confidence at our meet and greet that she is a responsible long-time dog parent. As a boarder, Eve was communicative and caring, sent lots of photos and updates, and was very attentive and available. Eve was around most days to spend with my dog, this was the situation my dog really needs. Eve was sitting for my dog during a snowstorm and the bad ice storm and sent me updates about this, as well. She even gave my dog an oatmeal bath, which was above and beyond. When I came to pick up Sweetheart, it was clear they had really bonded. She didn't want to get in the car! Will book again.”

Jacob O.

“Elisa was wonderful! Astro loves her! She sent me updates and pictures from their activities. When I went to pick Astro up he walked around the house as of it was his home.

I’m very attentive, gentle, and communicative, so you can feel completely at ease while your pet is in my care.

I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as slower senior pups. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time for your pets! I’m currently available all day (including early mornings) until evening, Monday-Saturday for walks or check-in visits. I currently have Bo, a senior pitbull, who is super chill and has no problems with other dogs. I also recently got a Belgian Malinois puppy named Darth Vader! Mercury, my brother’s 6 year old Australian Cattle dog, loves to play and I take care of him on occasion. We have a large patio and pool that dogs can enjoy laying in the sun or swimming! I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!

Siempre procuro que reciban atención, cariño y un trato seguro experiencia I work at home so I am avalaible to watch them and be aware of them, I can make sure to take care of them the best way. I Have a huge backyard thats fenced, I have enough space to place mini houses for the dogs and for them to have their own space and I have currently no pets so It would be a safe enviroment for dogs who do not enjoy being around other dogs

I am currently working full time but I am available most late afternoons and evenings, including the weekend! I am very trustworthy and have excellent time management skills. Communication in advance is key and I respond quickly to messages. My service will focus mostly on walking your dogs since the condo I live in doesn’t allow me to board pets with me, unfortunately. But I look forward to meeting and caring for your dogs on their daily walks!

“Taylor did very well with Teddy. He is a little skittish, but she was able to get him to trust her. I will use Taylor again when I have the opportunity to go out to dinner or to a ball game. She was very attentive to the dog and played with him to make him feel more comfortable.”

Emily H.

About: I am a dedicated and dependable pet care provider with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals independently. I have grown up around pets my entire life and have cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, rats, fish, and turtles. This diverse background has given me strong instincts, adaptability, and a deep understanding of individual animal needs. I currently own a cat who is a cherished companion, and caring for her has reinforced my commitment to providing patient, attentive, and high-quality care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone else’s beloved animals. My goal is to ensure that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether through daily care, companionship, feeding, or maintaining routines. I take pride in being reliable, gentle, and attentive, and I am passionate about helping pet owners feel confident and at ease while they are away. I work as a server, so my schedule can vary from week to week; however, I typically work evening shifts from around 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. This makes me most available for pet care during morning and early afternoon hours (approximately 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM), which works well for daily visits, walks, and check-ins. I am happy to accommodate overnight pet sitting, and I always communicate my work schedule in advance to ensure it aligns with both the pet’s routine and the owner’s expectations. Clear communication is a priority for me, and I strive to make sure every pet receives consistent, reliable care while their owner is away. I understand that every pet and owner has unique needs, routines, and expectations. I am committed to working closely with pet parents to ensure all care requirements are met, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. Whether a pet thrives on a structured schedule or prefers a more flexible, relaxed routine, I am happy to accommodate what works best for both the pet and the owner. My goal is always to provide consistent, attentive care while making the experience as stress-free and comfortable as possible for everyone involved.

“Thank you for the last minute booking!! Teagan was on time&friendly. I would definitely recommend!!”

Olivia C.

About: I've had my fair share of childhood pets since I was born, from cats and dogs to reptiles and birds. Every pet I've ever met holds a special place in my heart, and I'm hoping your fur-baby will be next! I work full time, but I have after 2 o'clock off every day, which leaves more than enough time to check on your pets! I've worked with free-roaming dogs, fenced in yards, and crate-trained dogs. Relatives of mine have left the care of their dogs and cats to me more than once. I ensure that dogs are walked at least twice a day, and fed at their regular times.

“Susan was wonderfully patient with our very fearful dog. She worked to gain his trust and now he is happy to see her and go for a walk with her. Very glad we found Susan!”

Gretchen S.

About: I’ve grown up with many animals for years, but it all started with my first dog Luna when I was 6! She’s now very old and my mom and I do our best to treat her with care and patience. We’ve had times where we’ve had to take her to the vet, give her medicines, and adjust her diet to benefit her health. She’s been on my side all my life, and so have I! Whenever I could, I would hug and kiss all of my animals to show them that neglect is not a part of this household. I often walk her afterschool and I always let her sleep with me when she wants (she has the attitude of a queen)! I sometimes would pull out her old toy and play with her, but gently enough not to strain her! Regardless of the circumstances, I’ve given every animal all the care I could. Not only does it help them, but it makes me happy! To see an animal enjoying my company has to be one of the greatest feelings in the world, and that connection is better than anything! Due to college, I am only available for the last half of Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday! But, I will be updating my availability if anything pops up and I’ll openly talk about scheduling with clients ☀️☀️ How I care for pets all depends on the environment and their needs! Living in a small home with limited grass space, I often times take all of my animals outside and chill with them! I’ll walk my dog on the sidewalks of my neighborhood’s, let my birds feel the breeze in their cage, and let my cats explore the space freely!

About: Hi, I'm Cristine! I am a dog lover who adopted a Jack Terrier/Dachsund mix named Rocco, who is currently 4 years old. I work from home everyday and enjoy walking my dog and spending time with him at home or at the dog park. I have grown up most of my life with family dogs and I've watched numerous family/friends' dogs while they've been out of town. I can handle almost any dog sitting/walking needs. Rocco loves having dog company. He gets along great with any dogs that he meets. Being a dog owner, I understand the predicament when going out of town and needing someone to watch Rocco. I, like most other dog owners, would prefer my dog in a loving and fun environment instead of being boarded in a kennel. I'm willing to send pictures and updates as requested. I can't wait to meet your pooch !!!

About: Been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I’ve had cats and digs growing up my entire life! I love to be active and walk and have free time and would love to be around animals I am Flexible all week and weekend when in town. I do travel often. Want to stay busy when I am in town and love animals! I can do whatever is needed. I have a fenced in yard and crate of my own. I only crate mine now when needed but that is not often as he is older. I only have one of my dogs with me at my home as my other dog is with my mother in my home town.

About: I've had pets in my home as long as can remember, I love animals. I love going on walks, playing ball or tug of war, or just a belly rub and snuggle. I treat every pet as if it were my own and enjoy figuring out what makes them tick. Your pet's peace of mind and happiness are always a priority. I would gladly provide updates and photos while you are away, rest assured they are in good hands. I am currently working and enjoy a somewhat flexible schedule. I know that we can find a schedule that works for all of us. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet. I am an empty nester with a longtime boyfriend; we have been in Florida for almost 4 years and have recently settled in Sarasota. I have enjoyed getting to know different parts of the state and look forward to more exploring.

“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!!”

“Steve and Cindy were great sitters for our dog. They are super easy to work with and did a great job keeping us apprised of how much fun our dog had with them. Would totally recommend.”

Sandy J.

“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!”

Stephanie D.

“The best sitters I’ve ever experienced!! They sent pictures and videos of our little pup multiple times a day, he was constantly getting exercise during his visit, and they even taught him “paw”! We can tell our pup had a great time with them and on top of that they were very communicative and flexible. Cannot say enough good things! 🫶”

Autum D.

“Eve gave me a lot of confidence at our meet and greet that she is a responsible long-time dog parent. As a boarder, Eve was communicative and caring, sent lots of photos and updates, and was very attentive and available. Eve was around most days to spend with my dog, this was the situation my dog really needs. Eve was sitting for my dog during a snowstorm and the bad ice storm and sent me updates about this, as well. She even gave my dog an oatmeal bath, which was above and beyond. When I came to pick up Sweetheart, it was clear they had really bonded. She didn't want to get in the car! Will book again.”

Jacob O.

“I can’t say enough great things about Tara and Justin! They took such amazing care of my two girls while I was away. Tara is incredibly compassionate and experienced—she made sure my dogs felt comfortable and right at home from the start, giving them the time they needed to adjust to a new environment. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my girls were happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. Tara and Justin truly care about the pets they watch and go above and beyond to treat them like their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable pet care!”

“We were thrilled with the level of love and attention our senior lab Cooper received during his stay with Tina. She was a super communicator and sent lots of great pictures and videos of his stay as well as gave thorough details of how he did while he was there. Bonus, Cooper's long lost twin is her dog Tahoe :) they had the best time together and should we have the need for a dog sitter for Cooper again, we won't hesitate to contact Tina. If I could give 10 stars I would! Thanks again :)”

“Nicole and her family were wonderful with my pug and French bulldog! They are a true dog family and Nicole has prior dog experience that was very helpful in terms of gauging behavior, interaction with other dogs, and any individual needs. They gave them lots of playtime as well as breaks/rest, asked good questions, and shared photos & videos. Nicole has a large fenced-in yard that my dogs loved tearing around in. Their family also were able to help on short notice when I had a family emergency out-of-state, which made a huge difference. Thank you SO much for caring for my pups!”

“Mylena is amazing! My dog Tessa has never been around children and let her know I was worried about that and she put me at ease the morning of drop off. This was my first time putting my animal in boarding before. Mylena texted me EVERY day with pics and updates. My heart broke leaving her for 2 weeks, but I knew she was in great hands. I will ALWAYS go back when I need a pet sitter. Thank youuuuu so much for making my girl feel right at home. Highly recommend!!!!!!!”
