About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds my entire life! I helped my family foster dogs of all ages and sizes (up to 23 at a time) since elementary school. I haven’t met a doggy I didn’t love! I’ve cared for dogs by administering medicine, grooming, wrapping injuries, and more. I love going on runs and playing catch if your furry family needs some exercise as well! I work full time, but have a lengthy lunch break and free evenings after 5pm. I would be happy to drop in for an early morning visit as well. I don’t currently have any pets in my own home, but in my family home I am responsible for feeding, administering medicine, walking, cleaning up after, playing with, and giving head scratches!
“Tina was phenomenal! She took great care of our kitties while we were overseas. She was so communicative and caring, and our babies clearly loved her. We are so thankful to have a found an amazing sitter for our kitties!”
“AJ is like a cat whisperer! He is compassionate, professional, and highly communicative with all creatures of our home. We are always comforted in travel knowing we can safely and reliably leave our kitties and their medication needs in AJ’s care.”
“Karla took wonderful care of my two cats, administering the medication for my one kitty who was on crate rest after an injury and making sure he got attention and chin scratches. She also helped my shyer cat fee at ease and start to come out of his shell more, which is great to see. Would highly recommend Karla to anyone and am so thankful for her attention to detail and steady communication throughout the visit.”
“Patrick saved the day for us, filling in to take care of our cats when their usual sitter had an emergency. He was extremely communicative and took great care of them. We will definitely rebook!”

“Samantha took great care of Sheba. Was on time and provided details of what was going on. She was even able to extend the time I needed her on a last minute notice. I will definitely use her to take care of Sheba and would highly recommend her to others”
“Marisa is the absolute best. I’ve never been happier with a sitter. She is so good with my very anxious dog who takes awhile to warm up and my kitties all love her too! She went above and beyond. Even accepted a last minute drop in request because our flight was delayed. Highly recommend! I hope she’s available every time I need a sitter. Thanks SO much, Marisa!!”
About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I would love to walk and love on your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I love walking in and seeing the smiles when they know they get to go for a walk! I’m a local PreK teacher so my schedule is usually free after 3:30 on weekdays, but my weekends are usually wide open! Growing up I always had animals in my house so I’m very comfortable with messes they make or medicine they need, so if your babies need that too I’d be more than happy to help! If you’re looking for someone to have your pets feel comfortable and happy all day, even while you’re away, I’d love to be that person! I'm currently a PreK teacher at a local elementary school, so my weekdays are open starting around 3:30 pm! On the weekends, I usually hang out at home or around town, so my schedule is pretty flexible! In your home, I promise to follow whatever makes your pets the most comfortable! Whether your dogs like to lounge on the couch or feel more content in a crate, I'll do whatever you'd like!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Carrollwood
Anessa is by far the most amazing sitter I’ve ever had. My cat Nunu warmed up to Anessa instantly by her calm demeanor. Anessa was incredibly patient and respectful of his boundaries. Instead of forcing interaction, she simply stood still and let him come to her on his own terms.She took such great care of him, followed all of my instructions carefully, made sure he was fed, and spent time playing with him. I also really appreciated all of the pictures and updates she sent throughout the visits. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. You can truly tell that Anessa understands animals and genuinely cares about them. She went above and beyond to make sure my shy little guy felt safe and loved. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive pet sitter!
Tina is amazing! She is so great with our three kitties, and we have been so grateful knowing they are in good hands when we travel. We even had a kitty that needed some meds, and she was so great with making sure he took them and stayed on track. Can’t recommend her enough!
Alyssa is great. My pets take to her very well. She really engages and interacts with my fur babies and ensures she’s mindful to accommodate any requested needs for either of my cats. She’s punctual reliable and communicates well. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with her!
Meghan was absolutely wonderful with Livy. Before her scheduled visits, she took the time to come by for a meet-and-greet and carefully learn Livy's routine. She really went above and beyond to make sure she understood Livy's needs and that everything would be as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately, Livy decided she wasn't particularly interested in making a new friend—we recently moved and she is out of character. Meghan handled it with so much patience, kindness, and good humor. She even joked that Livy reminded her of Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada, which honestly couldn't have been more accurate and gave us all a good laugh. Regardless of Livy's icy demeanor Meghan knows that she has modeled for brands so she made us a photo of Livy on a magazine cover!!! It was included with the most beautiful thank you note; please do not thank me; THANK YOU for everything that you did! Throughout the entire experience, Meghan was thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared about providing the best possible care. Even if your pet is a little aloof or has a big personality like ours, you can trust that Meghan will treat them with patience and compassion. We're so grateful for everything she did and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her! I am not sure how 'Miranda Priestly' feels but I sure hope that Meghan will return!!!
Jordan was amazing as always! She took great care of our new puppy and our cat who she has cared for before. She is great at communicating and takes amazing pictures to let us know everything is going well. I can’t recommend her enough, we can tell our pets love her too!
Marisa was absolutely phenomenal with our two cats! We have honestly never seen someone care for them the way she did. She treated them like they were her own and always made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She even stayed longer than scheduled if she felt they needed a little extra attention, which meant so much to us. Her communication was 10/10. We received thoughtful updates, plenty of photos, and always felt completely at ease knowing our cats were in such great hands. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond, Marisa is the one. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Jessica was amazing! She came twice a day for a week to care for my cat, Luna, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She sent lots of pictures and updates of my little buddy playing, being fed, and getting plenty of love and attention, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Jessica even brought Luna extra treats and toys, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about Luna and treated her like one of her own. I would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Carrollwood on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
