“As, usual, Stephanie and Elizabeth did a great job. They sent pictures and kept in contact. I just love that Toby is always smiling in his pictures. Thank you girls, so much. Until next time…🥰💕”
“I needed a sitter on short notice and Kym and Glen were happy to help. Their backyard is amazing and was a perfect place for Olive and the other pups to play. Olive immediately warmed up to Glen when I dropped her off, and I swear she seemed like she didn’t want to leave when I came to get her!! She came home with a new bandana and some cookies, which was such an unexpected and sweet gesture. I will definitely be using Kym and Glen again in the future!!”
“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.”
“Eve was great with our pittie! He can be a nervous guy, but she was patient with him and he came home happy and healthy. Eve also noticed some hot spots on his feet and gave me a recommendation on how to treat them - truly above and beyond what we expected :)”
“Our boy seemed very happy when we picked him up. Hope sent pictures throughout his stay and kept us updated. We had never left him with anyone besides family and close friends. We will definitely book with Hope again in the future.”
“Olga boarded Zachary for three weeks while we were on vacation. During that time, Zachary was treated like a member of her loving family. Olga sent regular videos and pictures of Zachary playing tag with her dog, along with a cute picture of him with her cat. When we returned, Zachary was well fed, happy, and healthy. Olga did some training during his stay with her and gave him a bath and a comb-out. I have no hesitation in recommending Olga for training or boarding. She is excellent!”
“We LOVED how Danielle took care of our Josie. I think Josie loved her, too! We got several notes each day, with pics and an occasional video. It was clear that Josie was truly enjoying her stay. Huge thanks go to Danielle for taking on our 75 pound, energetic lab. High recommendations for her - but leave room on her calendar for future Josie visits.”
“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!”
“We were nervous about boarding our dog the first time (mainly my wife) and Lisbeth was an absolutely fabulous person to trust our puppy with! She is a professional, caring, and responsible "sitter" and we will be lucky if she is available the next time we need her. Yes this is a lot of praise, but it's for good reason. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Felicia was wonderful with our girl, Josie, we would highly recommend and will take her back on our next trip. When she she moped after we left, Felicia worked with her to make her feel at home. This took a lot of extra time and loving which was freely given. Lots of healthy treats, brushing and long walks got her tail wagging and happy. We got lots of pictures and updates I could see how happy and content Josie was. So leave your furry friend there and know you’ll get care and attention and not have to worry. Her years of experience and compassion shows, this isn’t just a part time job for extra money, she enjoys it!”
“Great sitter! They've got kids and dogs at the house, and I think all that company made Cotti really comfortable — she settled right in. Easy to communicate with, no stress on our end. Would definitely book again.”
“This is the first time we have boarded Rosie through Rover and we couldn’t have picked a better person. We felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands and getting updates about how she was doing. Definitely recommend!!”
“Linda and Brian have the sweetest dog and my dog just loved them all. He normally is very anxious but he even fell asleep beside Brian and his cute new friend Carmi! I would highly recommend this place!”

“Stephanie & Elizabeth are the best pet sitters! My cat is very comfortable with them. They are great communicators and are very reliable. I highly recommend them!”
“I am extremely happy with the way Megan took care of my cat Reese while I was away. She wrote detailed messages daily and shared photos of them spending time together. I can tell Reese absolutely loved being with her! As a result, I was able to enjoy a stress free vacation knowing he was in such kind and capable hands. Megan will definitely be my choice for a pet sitter again!”
About: I am a retired RN who is currently without any of my own pets to love, so I plan to give my love to yours. I have been a pet sitter for Dogs, Cats, Birds, Rodents and Reptiles. As an RN I have many skills that transfer to pets and I use those on the pets I care for as well. I'm a keen observer and problem solver. I am available to do drop-ins, extended care in your home (with light housekeeping and plant care for additional fee). I am flexible in my schedule and can do long-term (more than 7 days) care if needed. I will be present for as much or as little as your pet requires. I've cared for animals from babies to seniors and can provide the appropriate level of care needed. I have administered injections, pills, topical treatments and wound care to pets. I'm here to care for your furry, feathery, scaly and shelly friends. One Caveat: Walking Dogs who are pullers is not my forte. If you have a large or Medium dog who is used to walking and can be corrected with gentle reminders is fine. I have no schedule limitations at this time. I can be available as little or as much as you need. For short or extended care. The first thing I do is have an in-depth meeting with you about your pet's needs while you are absent. Then I develop a plan based on their typical schedule for waking, feeding, potty, walking, sleeping and medicating. I will attempt to keep as close as possible to their normal routine. I am a gentle corrector unless the behavior or situation is dangerous to them or those around them. I give lots of cuddling and rubs if they want them and respect their need for space too. If they sleep with you, they'll sleep with me. I will follow your directions for their care as closely as possible. Basically, I'll treat them as if they are mine, but love them as if I was you.
“Sue is reliable and takes good care of my cat. She and her husband quickly connected with Liliya so she doesn’t even hide from them. I’m grateful I can rely on them when I must go away. Will definitely use them again!”
“Mckayla did an amazing job watching my cat, Panda! She sent lots of pictures, played with her, and gave clear updates that made me feel at ease while I was on my cruise. Thank you again!”
“Jennifer was great! She was able to come spend time with our 2 cats Buddy and Howard when our other rover sitter could not come last minute. She took great care of them and her son was also great playing with them and making sure they did not get lonely while we were away. I will definitely be requesting her again as a sitter. I would recommend her !”
“This is my first time using Rover. And also my first time using Jenn. She was fantastic! She sent me pictures, she sent me texts, she kept me informed. I loved having her! Hopefully she’ll be available in the future for me.”
“Michael was very helpful with my last minute cat sitting needs. He provided short but thorough updates each visit, and my cats definitely appreciated their playtime.”

“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.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid — so pets have always been a huge part of my life. Honestly, I'm at my best when I'm among animals. 🐾 I've run a small rescue shelter for stray animals, personally funding all of its operations out of my own pocket — from caregiver salaries to food and medications. As a medical doctor, I was also able to personally administer medications and vaccines to the animals under my care, strictly following the vet's recommendations. That hands-on experience means I know how to spot when something's off, keep animals calm and comfortable, and give them the attention they truly deserve. Whether your pup needs a good walk and some playtime or your cat just needs a calm, caring presence while you're away — I've got them covered. I treat every pet like my own, and I'd love to do the same for yours! 🐶🐱 I am currently available for dog walks and boarding dogs or cats as I work as a freelancer. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and I am interested in providing care while getting some physical exercise alongside. For boarding pets, I have a condo where your pet is more than welcome. We can do walks in my gated community. A dog park is across the street from my community if your dog loves running.
“We left our puppy for the first time with Paul. We were put at ease as he sent us lots of pictures to see how her day was going. Your dog will have great care! We highly recommend him for your dog!”
“Sarah and her family were great! She communicated throughout the day and send pictures! Obi was loved and spoiled from the second I dropped him off! Definitely will rebook with Sarah whenever I need daycare or boarding. Thank you Sarah!!”
“My dog is very timid with new people and except for an hour at the groomer, she had never been left with anyone else. Justin was willing to take her on short notice for an unexpected daycare need two days. Justin helped her feel safe and she came home with her tail wagging.”
“I believe our boys have found their new best friend! We have a couple of rescues and one of them is high energy, high anxiety. We really needed someone who could help him become more comfortable around other dogs—needed lots of patience! Tara is an answer to a prayer! We had two meet and greets with her dog, and we just picked them up from their first day of daycare. They did great and we are so happy to recommend Tara!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a natural connection to pets of all kinds. I grew up with Yorkies and cats, and today I share my home with two retired rescue greyhounds. I’ve also spent time around large breeds like English Mastiffs, so I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I bring a calm, patient energy that helps pets feel safe and comfortable—whether they’re shy, senior, or full of puppy energy. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel at ease while you’re away, and I’m fully committed to creating that sense of home and routine for them. From administering medications to taking gentle walks or simply being a warm presence, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals started at a very young age—I even worked at a veterinary hospital at age 14 as a dog trainer, which gave me hands-on experience in caring for and understanding pets. That early passion has only grown stronger over the years. Pet care is now a natural part of my daily life. I start and end each day with walks and quality time with my two retired greyhounds, so caring for animals is woven into my routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I genuinely enjoy every part of it. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need—whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Making animals feel loved and secure is something I take pride in, and it never feels like a task—it’s something I truly love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, and any special needs like medication or extra quiet time. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things tidy and consistent, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I take the time to get to know their personality and provide calm companionship, play, and affection based on what they enjoy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with soft spaces to relax, lots of love, and a routine that helps reduce stress. Whether they need extra snuggles, slow-paced walks, or a little patience, I meet them where they are—physically and emotionally.
“Charlie awas very responsive, and accommodating. His wife took Halo for a walk as soon as we arrived. Charlie sent pictures and updates on Halo. I would definitely recommend them.”

“Our little baby doesn’t get to play much with other animals and he had his first experience here and it went amazing. Tatiana was very caring. She provided amazing picture and video. We would definitely book with her again very soon. Thank you so much for being such a great help and provider for our little boy.”
“Donna and Michael made my anxiety of leaving my precious Luna in day care completely go away. They are such kind caring people that have a great love for fur babies ❤️ I am so thankful to have found them!”

About: Working Wonders K9 officially began in 2024 but its roots run deep into the heart and the history of Kenna the owner. Throughout her childhood, she trained her pet dogs in obedience and could often be found learning agility and tricks with them side-by-side! As an adult, this passion lead her to train her rescue dog, Luna, as a service dog after developing an autonomic nervous system dysfunction that took away her safety and freedom. Under the guidance of a service dog trainer, she began learning the basics of training a working dog and found a calling. After apprenticing with a training company and spending much of her free time researching dog body language, training methods and training techniques, she opened Working Wonders K9 with the goal of making service dogs accessible to disabled individuals and helping pet parents train and build a strong relationship with their dogs. She offers knowledgeable pet care as well as training and support in obedience and behavior modification. I currently am attending school full time and have my own dog training business where I help clients train their pets in obedience and provide solutions to problem behaviors. During the day I have plenty of time to devote to pet care and making sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve! I offer knowledgeable and experienced pet care in the clients home. I have a background in veterinary care and dog training and have devoted many hours to understanding dog’s body language in order to care for them better. I provide on leash walking and oversight in homes and backyards to make sure each pet is taken care of and gets the love and attention they need!

I love walks and spending time outside. I can feed them as needed. I will make sure to snuggle them with permission and send many pictures to you! If they are scared, I will make sure to back away and let them make the rules for safety for everyone. Your pet will be treated as my own<3

About: My name is Heidi and I am a kind, gentle and compassionate person who loves all animals and people. I stumbled upon this opportunity Just about 7 years ago and it is the best job ever!! I love getting to meet all different breeds and getting to know each dogs' personality but the best part is being able to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet while you are away. I am also a mother to an amazing son named Caleb who is 16 yrs old and absolutely adores all of the dogs we care for. Being able to share this experience with my son is probably one of the most rewarding parts of this job. He has learned so much about caring for dogs and about being compassionate for others. We treat all of the animals we care for as our own. I do work a full time job that consists of mostly night 4pm to 1am but also contains some morning shifts 10:00am to 7pm, I do have two full days off a week which is usually Wednesday and Thursday. We will care for your pets as if they are our own. Please let me know what their normal care routines are and we will follow them. We want them to be comfortable and loved during your time away.

“I needed a sitter on short notice and Kym and Glen were happy to help. Their backyard is amazing and was a perfect place for Olive and the other pups to play. Olive immediately warmed up to Glen when I dropped her off, and I swear she seemed like she didn’t want to leave when I came to get her!! She came home with a new bandana and some cookies, which was such an unexpected and sweet gesture. I will definitely be using Kym and Glen again in the future!!”
“Eve was great with our pittie! He can be a nervous guy, but she was patient with him and he came home happy and healthy. Eve also noticed some hot spots on his feet and gave me a recommendation on how to treat them - truly above and beyond what we expected :)”
“Jessica and Melissa were absolutely amazing in accommodating our fur babies on such short notice. They kept me updated throughout the entire process, sending me pictures and letting me know how the dogs were doing every step of the way. All the pictures they sent showed the dogs was having a blast. Thank you again for your kindness and excellent care!”
“Our boy seemed very happy when we picked him up. Hope sent pictures throughout his stay and kept us updated. We had never left him with anyone besides family and close friends. We will definitely book with Hope again in the future.”
“We LOVED how Danielle took care of our Josie. I think Josie loved her, too! We got several notes each day, with pics and an occasional video. It was clear that Josie was truly enjoying her stay. Huge thanks go to Danielle for taking on our 75 pound, energetic lab. High recommendations for her - but leave room on her calendar for future Josie visits.”
“Audrey and Karson were very kind and welcoming to our Golden girl and excellent with prompt communication. They sent regular photos of her which really helped a lot to know she was doing well with them. Overall, it was an excellent experience w and made it easier for us to be apart from her. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her board with them again!”
“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!”
“Lori has always been so great with Zoey. She’s is up to date with how she’s doing and sending daily photos of Zoey. A quiet, chilled environment which Zoey enjoys :)”
“Donna and Mike are great. They truly love taking care of your furry family members and share videos or pictures while you are away. Our Moxi always comes home tuckered our from playing with other friends while there.”
“Took fantastic care of our pup and you could tell in the pictures how happy she was. Her pup, Lulu , is as sweet as they come and very playful and tolerant. I will definitely use again and highly recommend.”

Your pet will have plenty of space, attention, playtime, and a cozy home-away-from-home while you’re away. I love getting to know each animal’s individual personality and routine, whether they’re energetic and playful or happiest relaxing and getting lots of attention.

I’m available throughout the week for boarding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home. I’ve set up a separate guest house specifically to provide pets with a comfortable, peaceful home away from home. My property has plenty of outdoor space for supervised walks, playtime, and exploring, while the guest house gives pets their own cozy space to relax indoors. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs, and I’m happy to provide plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay.

“Jackelyn was excellent. We did a visit prior to his stay. She was so warm and welcoming to both I and Russell. He took to her immediately. She allowed him to run freely in the house. I received pictures and updates daily. Jackelyn actually taught Russell to sit and lye down. We’re back together and he is kind of moping around. I’ve already talked about anther upcoming stay. I believe he’s found his second home. Thank you so much Jackelyn. 💕💕💕🐶🐩🐩”

About: I have a dog of my own who I treat like my child, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pup is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ We’re a dog-loving household—my parents live with me and absolutely love dogs too! My dad is home full-time, and I’m home most of the time, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My sweet dog is very friendly and loves making new friends, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for playtime and companionship. 🐾 With our fenced yard, plenty of walks, cuddles, playtime, and lots of love, my goal is to make your pup feel like part of our family while they’re here. I’m also happy to follow your pup’s usual routine and accommodate special requests whenever possible. Just let me know what helps your pup feel most comfortable! For everyone’s safety and comfort, I do require a meet & greet before accepting a boarding stay. This gives our dogs a chance to meet and helps make sure they’re comfortable together and a good match. I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and getting lots of love. 🐶💕 Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine since I have a dog of my own. 🐾 I’m home most of the time, and my dad is home full-time, so there is usually someone around to give the dogs plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Our days include regular walks, time outside in our fenced yard, feeding, playtime, and of course lots of cuddles! Having another pup stay with us fits right into our routine—and my dog is always happy to have a new friend to share his day with. Safety is very important to me, which is why I require a meet & greet before boarding to make sure our dogs get along and everyone feels comfortable. I’m also happy to accommodate special routines or requests whenever possible—just let me know what your pup needs!
