“I have used Fran a number of times to take care of my cat. She is caring, responsible and I know Carlisle is well taken care of . She sends me daily updates with photos which is much appreciated. She is an excellent petsitter that I highly recommend.”
“Wonderful doggy stay!! Sends lots of videos and pictures so you feel at ease that your little fur baby is well cared for. Really great drop off system. Highly recommend!! We won’t go anywhere else.”
“Viktoryia was amazing with my dog! I just moved here and had to travel immediately for work, and Viktoryia was so accommodating. Even when my dog had an upset stomach, she went above and beyond to take care of her and help the problem. Not to mention, my dog has a very strict medication schedule that she handled with no problem. I would 100% recommend her!”
“She did an amazing job taking care of my boys. I definitely recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a sitter. The moment I met her and dropped them off, I knew they were in great hands. I received pictures and videos throughout their stay. We have already rebooked for next month.!”
“Team Stephany did a wonderful job boarding Penny! Good feedback daily and I could tell Penny was having a wonderful time with Minnie. Would highly recommend and will hopefully use their services in the future. Thank you!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Oh my gosh—our fur babies had an absolute blast! Leslie’s home is honestly more fun than our own 😂. We’ve finally found our pups’ new vacation spot. They always have company, and every animal is treated like one of her own children. We felt completely at ease knowing they were so loved and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Nick was an amazing host to scout for 10 days. This was my first time boarding a dog so I was not sure what to expect, but Nick went above and beyond to keep me at ease while I was out of the country by sending multiple photo/video updates every day and notes about scouts behavior and integration with the other animals.”
“Steve and Cindy were great. Especially coming in at the last minute as I needed to go to the hospital. They kept my neurotic baby safe and sound and I would definitely recommend them!”
“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!!!”
“Leslie is a dedicated and responsive dog sitter! Her updates are thorough and frequent. And photos are great. My dog Fiona was very comfortable with Leslie and her cuddly Pug. Leslie really understood Fiona and I highly recommend her dogsitting!”
About: Highly reliable I offer plenty of love and affection for your dog with undivided attention and personal care. I have always owned dogs and know first hand how to care for them. My open schedule allows me to keep your pets routine. I’m retired and looking to help take care of your dog. I do not have a dog of my own right now which makes boarding in my home flexible. Daily walks are also flexible in my schedule. I have a first floor condo with lanai in a pet friendly community. There is also a dog park in walking distance. I am also available to come to your home for daily walks and feeding/walking.
About: Let me love on your furry friends! I've grown up with dogs all of my life and am frequently dog sitting for my family/friends. I enjoy taking them on walks, giving them treats and making sure they feel loved. My home is a safe place with a large fenced in backyard for them to run around. I also have a stroller if your pet is elderly but would like to get out for some fresh air. I am happy to take photos/videos so you can see how well taken care your dogs are. There is also a dog park down the street if your furry friend has extra energy it needs to get out. I will tailor your dogs visit to meet their needs. I work full-time but am close enough to work that I can come home on my lunch break for a potty break. I am home on the weekends and evenings. I have a large fenced in yard for your pup to run around and a 12 year old mini dachshund of my own. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, as I want them to feel comfortable and at home. Feel free to bring your own dog beds, blankets, and toys.

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.

“Kathy what is just super. She was here on time each day, and fed Winston, took care of him and played with him. She also sent us pictures every day, which was very reassuring.”
“Nicholas was communicative, and was available to help care for our fur baby in a last minute, emergency scenario. He was flexible with pick up/drop off times, and he went the extra mile and helped get our fur baby into a crate when he didn’t want to. Very thankful for his help during a challenging time.”

Coco requires extra feedings and medications and Stephanie was happy to accommodate us with those extra needs. If you're looking for someone dependable and caring Stephanie is your person!”
About: Growing up will all kinds of pets taught me early on just how much I truly loved animals. I have experience not only from caring for my own pets in the past but also pet sitting for friends and family over the years. I understand how worrisome it is leaving your furry best friends behind when needing to travel and ensure you I will provide nothing but the best care and update you every step of the way. If you are a previous client and see my calendar shows as unavailable please feel free to message me - as sometimes I do block off dates of tentative plans and may in fact be available! I work remote from home M-F. Generally speaking my schedule is extremely flexible. I am home all day other than going to the occasional appointment or gym for about 1-2hrs. Weekends don’t have a schedule however I obviously will be around as needed when scheduled to care for you pets. I tend to think of animals more highly than people. I ensure their safety in any way possible from basic common sense to special requests from owners.
About: I’ve lived with and loved cats for as long as I can remember! Having owned and cared for many cats over the years, I understand that every feline has a unique personality—from the 'social butterfly' who needs constant chin scratches to the 'shy wallflower' who needs plenty of space and a gentle touch. I’ll treat your cat like royalty and send you plenty of photo updates so you can see exactly how they’re ruling the roost while you're gone!
About: Caring for cats is all about understanding their unique personalities and needs. From my years of experience, including caring for my own beloved British Blue, Lulabelle and my orange Tabby, Pumpkin. I’ve learned that every cat deserves personalized care and a gentle touch. Whether it’s providing extra TLC for senior kitties or simply making sure each cat feels safe and cherished, I’m here to make every purr count.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Vamo
“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!”
“Stephanie is very sweet. She took us in last minute and provided great support to Gru. He had good time at their place and seemed happy. She takes great care and provided every update about Gru and also informed us that he skipped a meal. Thanks Stephanie!”

“This was the first time I took a chance to reached out to someone here on Rover to watch my dog, Noah. Was not sure I was going to take a chance even after reading all the great reviews that Kinga had. I am so glad we did because from the pictures she sent me throughout the day, it was obvious she totally spoiled him, but more importantly, she treated him as if he were her dog. I have already put in a request to have her watch him again.”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 10. I raised 2 liters of puppies with my family. Neighbors and friends have looked to me to take care of their dogs because of how much I enjoy doing it. I am currently home for the summer before I move and start my full-time job in August. I have lots of free time and love spending time with animals. I would be more than happy to take care of your pets whenever you need it! I'm very high energy, but also very tidy and would watch over your pet and home very nicely. I have my own dog who I have raised on my own, I have also walked and watched dogs consistently since I was in high school.
About: Hi, I'm Miranda, a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience in pet care, including in-home sitting and drop in visits for cats and dogs and even the occasional exotic fish or bird. Based in North Port, Venice and Sarasota areas. I believe pets thrive best in their own familiar environment—free from the stress of kennels or boarding facilities. That's why I specialize in personalized, overnight in-home pet sitting, ensuring your furry family member gets the love, exercise, and routine they crave while you're away. I've fostered many rescues in my home. I have skills in everything from oral medication administration to basic behavioral training. Whether it's daily walks in the neighborhood, playtime with toys, or cozy cuddle sessions on the couch, I tailor my care to your pet's unique personality and needs. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can stay connected! Past clients rave about my reliability and the peace of mind I bring. When I'm not watching fur babies, you'll find me at the beach, hanging out with my 2 rescue pups or adventuring. Ready to book a meet-and-greet? Message me! Let's keep your pet happy, healthy, and home—where they belong! 🐾 Looking for a reliable sitter in Gulf Gate? I work locally Mon–Thu and can easily swing by for drop-ins before, during, or after my workday. I’m also happy to stay at your place! I’ll be out of your house during the day for work, but I make it a priority to come home at lunch to check on your fur babies and make sure they’re doing great. I’ve been a dedicated animal lover and sitter for over two decades! My journey began on a Colorado ranch where I looked after everything from pups to poultry (and the occasional iguana). Since then, I’ve spent years fostering dogs and building a loyal base of repeat clients who trust me with their homes and 'fur babies.' You can count on me to provide the same love and care I give my own pets, while always leaving your home exactly as I found it—clean and tidy

“Team Stephany did a wonderful job boarding Penny! Good feedback daily and I could tell Penny was having a wonderful time with Minnie. Would highly recommend and will hopefully use their services in the future. Thank you!”
“Oh my gosh—our fur babies had an absolute blast! Leslie’s home is honestly more fun than our own 😂. We’ve finally found our pups’ new vacation spot. They always have company, and every animal is treated like one of her own children. We felt completely at ease knowing they were so loved and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Nick was an amazing host to scout for 10 days. This was my first time boarding a dog so I was not sure what to expect, but Nick went above and beyond to keep me at ease while I was out of the country by sending multiple photo/video updates every day and notes about scouts behavior and integration with the other animals.”
“Steve and Cindy were great. Especially coming in at the last minute as I needed to go to the hospital. They kept my neurotic baby safe and sound and I would definitely recommend them!”

“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.”
“Pamela is the best sitter we could ask for. Every time we go on vacation, Nico gets one too. He’s always so relaxed and happy being with Pamela and her family , you can tell he’s genuinely loved and cared for, not just watched. We never worry when he’s with her, which as dog parents is honestly the biggest gift. Can’t recommend her highly enough. Nico (and we!) are always so excited for his next stay with her.”
“Asya and her family did such an outstanding job taking care of my pups. She sent so many great pics and videos and I was so amazed at how my dogs were so integrated into her family. It is clear they were very well cared for. Definitely will use her again!”
“Alyssa took good care of Leo and was very communicative throughout his stay. I appreciated the photos she sent with each update as well! We will use her again.”
“Our dog Hart had an amazing time at Morgan's house! He had a short visit and then a longer, 5 day visit. Morgan did a great job of pairing him up with dogs his size and energy level that he could run around and play with. He got lots of play time and even got his paws wet in the kiddie pool which was a first! He was well cared for and happy! Morgan is very good at communicating and sending photos. We would highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“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!!!!!!!”
“Luna is very shy, he had no issues meeting before hand to make sure they got along. Luna warmed up so fast and had no issues over her stay. I can not thank him enough!”
“Lucca our 11-year old cavalier has never had a pet sitter that wasn’t immediate family. Kelli offered to meet before our vacation and we were comfortable from then on. She asked extensive questions about his care & handled his somewhat complicated medication and food schedule like a pro. So happy to have found Kelli. She is very trustworthy and gave excellent updates every day. Lucca was so loved while we were gone & his transition back home after 5 days was seamless. I will be contacting her soon to help again. :)”
“Haley has been my constant companion since my husband died. She is getting old and is anxious around other dogs so I needed a pet sitter without other dogs or young kids. Ray and his son took great care of Haley, sent me daily texts and photos, took her for walks and rides and I think that she enjoyed staying with them. I will definetely board Haley with Ray again.”
“I cannot recommend Katarina enough. Teddy unexpectedly developed GI issues that required a strict diet and extra care, and Katarina handled everything with such patience and professionalism. She kept us updated constantly, giving us total peace of mind. We are so grateful for the extra effort she put in during a difficult situation—she is a true 'dog person' and a total lifesaver. Highly recommend! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy!”
