“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!”
“I am so grateful for Elisa and the amazing care she gave our dog! She’s reliable, kind, and clearly love animals. Our pup was happy, safe, and well-loved. We’d definitely trust them again and highly recommend their services!”
“Ducky had such a great time while we were away. She was able to accommodate us last minute. I felt super confident with her care. Was worried he would be sad but he had an absolute blast. Would use her care again in future”
“Riley was happy and well cared for. Abigail provided pictures and regular updates. She showed love and affection towards Riley and asked the right questions about feeding and walks etc. We will definately be using her again!”
“Beth was amazing. We have probably never felt at such ease when leaving our puppies behind when we travel. She updated us daily and sent pics of them having the time of their life. Highly recommend and will use Beth again when we travel. 🐶💯”
“Betsy was very loving with my dog, Lucy! She communicated with me the entire time I was away, which I really appreciated! Her dog Frida, is now Lucy's new best friend. Betsy has a nice fenced backyard that the dogs were able to run and play out there. She also sent me picture updates and I could tell that Lucy felt right at home. I HIGHLY recommend Betsy and Frida as your next Rover option!”
“She sent lots of pictures and was very accommodating with sh l schedule for pick up and drop off, as well as a meetup to make sure the dogs got along with her dogs. Plenty of space for the dogs to run around and play outside including a nice shaded area with a koi pond. Thank you for taking care of our dogs while we were away for the weekend.”
“Second time my dog has stayed with Fran and it was another wonderful experience. She takes such good care and I love the photo updates she sends. Thank you for taking care of Madi!”
“Cheri is so caring and knowledgeable about animals, dogs in particular! So thankful that we found her to care for our 4-legged baby. Our pup had a great time with Cheri, and we received photos of their time together. Cheri was flexible and super responsive; our dog came home clean and happy; and we highly recommend Cheri!”
“THE BEST! Lisbeth took the best care of my old man. 15year old Jake (cat) takes medicine twice a day. Lisbeth's Vet Tech skills were why I chose her, but there were even more things that made us glad Jake was in her hands. It was a last minute booking, and then we requested to come later. She was kind and accommodating throughout the hosting, including letting us come early to pick him up. Lisbeth responded quickly to every text, and she was always cheerful. She sent me a picture of my Jakey-Boy so I could see he was content. He had never been boarded ever, so I had worries, that were needless. If you are deciding who to choose to take care of your fur baby, look no further. You have found the best choice!”
“Kendal is an amazing dogsitter. It’s always a little nerve wrecking to board your animals but she was always quick to respond to any text messages and provided plenty of pictures. I highly recommend her to any dog parent. You can tell she has a genuine love and compassion towards our four legged fur babies. Thank you so much Kendal! 😊”
“What a wonderful family, and our sweet dog came back happy, healthy, and unstressed. I will definitely reach out again to have them dog-sit. Karson was so thoughtful to send us pictures showing how she was adjusting, since this was the first time she had ever been left with someone. Thank you!”
“Karlee did an absolutely amazing job caring for my dogs, Atlas and Jaxon, this weekend. Atlas can be a bit of a difficult dog at times, but she handled him with so much patience, confidence, and care, it truly put me at ease. She also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which meant a lot and helped me feel completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Both dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved while they were with her. It’s not always easy to trust someone with your pets, especially when one can be a little more challenging, but Karlee exceeded my expectations in every way. I’m so grateful for the attention and care she gave them, and I would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Dr. Hope is the first sitter that has completely put my mind at ease. I know my doggies are well cared for while I’m out of town and they are always excited to go there. I highly recommend her!”
“Ranae is amazing! I will definitely be a repeat client. She was very good at making sure our baby was comfortable and happy. She also checked in with me at least once per day, with photos, to let me know how things were going. I highly recommend her.”
“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!”

“Kim was great. She gave detailed visit information each time and plenty of pictures. ❤️ She brought her own toys to play with our “kits” which was very nice knowing they were entertained while we were away. We will definitely use Kim for our future “kit” care.”
About: I had cats growing up and loved them so much. One of my children was allergic to them so I have missed playing with them. I'm an empty nester with a longtime partner now so that is no longer and issue.
“Caroline took great care of my very old kitty, Cody. She kept me up to date with notes and pictures which eased my worry, as this was her first time taking care of him. Cody was happy to see her and I could tell that he was very relaxed by her twice daily visits. We will definitely use Caroline again when the need arises.”
About: Ive always had a love for cats and dogs. I am more than happy to take care of my friends cats when they are away for vacation. I also find lost/stray cats, i either adopt, find a home or reunite with their owner. I connect with a cat based off the their personality, i know each have their own liking and personality
“Bailey is wonderful! She is very knowledgeable about cats and had no problems giving our elderly cat his meds while we were gone. We can tell he felt very comfortable with her. She even took him on a walk outside on his leash! Bailey is very communicative and sent us so many great pictures- we were so relieved to have her there and knew he was in good hands. We will definitely re-book her!”
“This was the first time I used Sky to house and cat sit for me and I am very pleased. First of all, she came to my house to meet us and to discuss my cat's daily routine. She was very professional and attentive, and also gentle when approaching my cat. While I was away, Sky sent me a photo of my cat every day, along with a description of what they did that day, both of which I really appreciated. When I came home, I found everything very clean and in good order, including the litterbox and all of her dishes washed and ready for use. My bed was also freshly made, another very kind thing to do for me! I highly recommend using Sky as a pet sitter and a house sitter, you will be happy you did!”
“Stefania was the absolute best! So kind and attentive to our cat… although we took our dog with us on our trip, she also met him during our “meet & greet” …showed love to both! We not only recommend her to others, we hope she’s available for our future needs!!”
“Elisa was very good with Hopi and kept him for 3 days without any other pets. He seemed very well cared for and met his needs. He was comfortable enough to sleep with them!”
About: I am conscientious, non-smoking, loving, caring, and trustworthy professional who understands the dedication and commitment required to look after your fur baby/babies. I have owned pets for more than 20 years and they all have always been spoiled rotten :). Growing up with pets and having my own as well, I became familiar with many pet conditions. If your furry baby has any medical needs I will assist in every way possible to make him/her comfortable. After my fur-baby passed away, I have chosen to fill the void of having a pet by looking after other people’s pets. While you are away, I will literally adopt your pet for the time it is with me and will treat him/her exactly as I would if it were my own. Your baby/babies will have fun with me and my son who loves animals more than anyone I’ve ever met (including critters and reptiles which are his specialty). Your baby/babies can watch TV with with us, sleep in bed or investigate things in and outside the house when out walking. I know that each pet has their own personality and style. I will adapt to exactly what your pet needs. My aim is to make your furry baby happy and provide the attention he or she ever wants and needs! I am a real estate agent for Coldwell Banker. Although I have to leave for house showings from time to time, your fur puppy will not be left home alone the whole time while I am gone. My 18 year old son will walk the pups to make sure they are not alone for long. I live in a townhouse with lots of trails around. I enjoy walking, so frequent nature walks will be a part of the routine. I have a very large back patio the dogs like to go on and absorb the sun. I always follow the same routine you do as I want your baby to feel at home.

“SO MANY GOOD THINGS I COULD SAY!!! My boyfriend and I look at our two dogs, Hope (almost 2) and Zeus (3 months), like they are children. Our girl Hope can be an escape artist at times and is very active, so we have a collar for her with gps and tracking of her steps. With that being said, in the past I have not re-used some people off rover because Hope simply would not move the entire time!!! At Donnas, Hope and Zeus both ran and ran (after all I could tell). And had an absolute blast. Her yard is fenced in so no dog could get out, even our little lunatics. She knows so much about dogs I have never felt so confident with leaving our babies with someone before. Hope and Zeus will be back!! Truly a gem!”

I have had cats and dogs before I would bend my back for them. I dont like dogs in cages I enjoy sleeping with then and letting then be free. I would rather have then trained. But if not just bring pads for them I could help with the training. I'm a honest loving person your dogs will love to be with me and my son. I have a big parking lot in the back where they can play freely and I'll walk them in the area
“I contacted Justin on the same day that I was in need of his doggie daycare services. Justin was wonderful with my baby Cargo. He was extremely patient with me. He met every need that Cargo needed as well as taking care of all my requests or concerns. He brought cargo to the dog park twice and sent me pictures. If and when I go back to Longboat Key, Florida I will contact Justin to take care of my Cargo again.”
“Jewell is a jewel! She took perfect care of my 15 year-old 10 lb fog. She is attentive, understands dogs, caring, and even after our first visit, I know I can trust her with my little old soul Zorro completely.”
“I cannot recommend this puppy sitter enough! They took amazing care of my puppy while I was visiting the area. So accommodating, kind, and flexible with my travel schedule — it truly made all the difference. My puppy was clearly well cared for and happy, which gave me peace of mind throughout my stay. I’m so grateful for Cheri’s help and would definitely book again!”

“Beth was a wonderful host for Teddy. He can be very anxious on his first visit, but Beth obviously knew how to handle him and make him calm. She opened her home and sent a picture as they sat together. He was so relaxed on the ride home, I could tell he enjoyed the day with Beth and Snickers! Thanks Beth for going the extra mile!”
“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.”
“Nicholas is our new favorite sitter! His relaxing easy going personality is a perfect fit for our two pups. I tell them on the way there that they are going to spend the day AT THE GREAT BIG YARD! So much room for activities! So many sniffs and smells and sights and yard to check out. Then, especially since it's summer, plenty of snoozing on the couch or cool tiles. Nicholas has been agreeable with some time changes and is super responsive when I have a question. We're new to Rover and will likely not look any further for a sitter now that we've found Nicholas and The Great Big Yard! Thank you, Nicholas!”

“Daelia took such good care of my baby! She was communicative, followed instructions, and sent photos. She even took care of her in the days following her spay surgery. Thank you again!”
“Jewels was wonderful. She did a meet and greet prior to the actual dog walking appointment. That really impressed me. She also faced numerous challenges with my condo complex and access. But she overcame them with no problems. She also kept me informed about everything with my dog. Cant say enough good about her. I highly recommend Jewel.”

I understand that every pet has a unique personality, your pet's comfort and safety will always come first.

About: Hi! My name is Mak, I’m 18 years old, and I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I currently have two German Shepherds of my own, which has given me a lot of hands-on experience with energetic, intelligent, and high-maintenance dogs. I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic routines, and making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and giving them the attention they need. I’d love the opportunity to care for your dog like they’re one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently take care of two German Shepherds. I’m already used to feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and making sure dogs get attention and structure throughout the day. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s easy for me to make them a priority and keep them comfortable, active, and well cared for. I care for pets by making sure they stay on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. I also understand how important it is to be patient, keep a clean environment, and make sure each pet feels relaxed and cared for like they’re my own.
About: I grew up in Michigan always being around animals of all kinds. I was a part of 4-H for 12 years and have owned and taken care of horses since I was practically 5 years old competing in various equine competitions. My family always had indoor-outdoor cats that I loved dearly and my grandma owned a farm that I helped run. I have dog sat for several neighbors throughout my life since I was never fortunate enough to have one of my own. Luckily now I am an aunt to my brother's dog Odin who I have cared for. Today I reside in Florida with my furry friend Kaiah who is a beautiful long-haired cat that is very outgoing and spoiled. She loves car rides and goes everywhere with me. She even has a special bowl for her favorite treats. The reason why I made a rover is because I know what it is like to worry about the care of my pets while I am away! It breaks my heart that I could not bring my horse with me to Florida however I know my mom loves him and that he is getting the attention he needs. I want to be a motherly figure in your pet's life and provide comfort and quality time while also making sure they have been cleaned up after. Dogs, Cats, and Horses are my specialty. I enjoy fitness and spending time outdoors so if you are looking for someone to stop by and walk your dog, or play with your cat or exercise, brush and feed your horse please do not hesitate to contact me. I currently have a relaxed full time job where I can work from the comfort of my home, in my office, or anywhere with WIFI. I travel occasionally for work but am flexible if booked in advance. I think cleanliness is important! no one wants to come home to a stinky litter box and or a pile of poop. I think its important to make sure that dogs are being walked until they have went to the bathroom and that litter boxes are being cleaned out daily. Secondly, I think its important to make sure water is fresh and food is provided on a schedule or in my case the cat food bowl is always full (I let my cat eat whenever she is hungry and she is very healthy). Lastly and most importantly no matter what animal it is they need play time and attention weather it be a walk or a playing fetch at the park or playing with your cats favorite wand toy. Cleanliness Nutrition and Love !
About: I have years of experience with dogs big and small, reptiles and pocket pets. I have a 11 month Coonhound mix that I rescued from Nate’s and I spoil him everyday.

The last 3 years I had a Boston(Sailor) with Epilepsy and would give medication around the clock and experienced with recognizing and handling seizures. Your loved pets are my new family. I’m currently part time and have a flexible schedule. Lots of my mornings and afternoons are free to take care of your pups needs like meals, medication, play time and walks. Or just to have the company of another! I have a friendly playful dog that can keep them company and play. I enjoy going to the park when the weather allows it so we can get fresh air and exercise. I like to leave the tv on nature channel with relaxing sounds to keep them comfortable if I’m not around. When it seems they are getting board I like to give enrichment toys filled with yummy healthy treats. And I’m the cuddling type if they allow it.

About: I have experience working with elderly and sick dogs so I am used to administering medicine. I had two dogs before I moved out of my parents a teacup chihuahua and a mutt named buddy. Felipe is 13 and buddy is 6. I have experience working at a dog shelter in San Diego California when I was 13-14. I am open to all breeds and all sizes. Both of my dogs were from the spca so I’m used to untrained pups. I will treat your dog like they are my own. Trips to the dog park regularly if boarding and regular walks and attention. I am a piercer at a tattoo shop and my partner is a tattoo artist, we have revolving schedules. Usually the pup would only be left alone 1-2 hours at a time, when i go to work and he comes home right after i leave. We are both animal lovers so being on rover is a nice way from preventing us from getting our own dog. I do stay in apartment but we make sure to go on regular walks around the neighborhood. There is a small fenced in area i like to take them too as well.

Besides dogs, I also specialize in barn animals and exotics such as horses, birds, snakes, and fish!

About: I have always had a special patience for animals, and always found myself able to work with them, however challenging and especially however loving they can be.

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!”
“Eve. There is so much to say. She is perfect in every way. A lot was happening in my life and she was steadfast in being there for me and for Olive Forever, the Greyhound. I needed additional days at the last minute and am so grateful that she was available, I would book her anytime for any reason if Olive needs someone to care for her when I cannot. Olive clearly fell in love with Eve.”
“We have had our border collie Willow in daycare/boarding since we moved to the US in February from the UK and I have never really been happy with it. We decided to take a chance on Lori & Jim after seeing the fantastic review and it’s fair to say we were not disappointed. They were great doing a meet and great when I first reached out to them and wanted to get to know all about Willow’s. I felt really comfortable dropping her off there and Willow was really excited to be there too. Lori sent multiple updates a day and Willow had the best time. I’m so pleased we have found somewhere she loves to go and we can trust to look after our baby. Thank you both for providing a home from home for our Willow 🐾”
“Lisa, did a fantastic job taking care of our little guy. She provided detailed information to us while we were away and also sent us many pics. We will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you !!”
“Michelle is wonderful. My dogs were very well cared for during their stay with her. She is a great communicator and a very caring sitter. My dogs and I look forward to benefiting from her generosity in the future.”
“Steve and Cindy took great care of our pup when we were away for the weekend! They sent adorable pics of the kids and dogs playing together. Our pup seemed right at home! Definitely will use them again!”
“Tina was great with my boy Iverson. She was extremely patient and understanding when it came to his puppy tendencies. She took a ton of pictures for me and gave me some great feedback on how he did during his stay overnight.”

I have two large labs that are friendly and well trained. A daughter who loves animals and my husband is an iron worker. I have been trained with proper leash handling skills and dog behavior.
“Stephany came very highly reviewed and for good reason! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process from booking through pick up and took fantastic care of our dog. She didn't miss a day of photos and provided consistent updates, which is always a great relief when entrusting someone to care for your loved one. She provide Rex his own space so that he could have quiet and solitude when needed, but also ample play and outdoor time. Rex left a happy and healthy boy. Can't recommend her enough!”
“Deborah did a fantastic job! She communicated to advise if all was going well. Was very professional and in my opinion, is an expert in dog sitting. She has several dogs and is well equipped to manage a dog. Was pleasantly surprised how easy the process was and how my Lola enjoyed the stay. Great experience and will definitely use her service again!!”
“Katerina was fantastic; she was always responsive, professional and accommodating. Her son was also very lovely and took great care to make sure Finn was happy and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Katerina, and I look forward to booking her again in the future!”
“Nicholas was so awesome with my skittish girl. She takes a while to warm up to people but he didn’t give up and gained her trust quickly on our weekend away. He shared so many photos and videos to keep our minds at ease. Great sitter!!!!”
