“I needed a last minute sitter and Elizabeth came through. My dogs looked happy when I came home and I was able to enjoy my evening knowing my dogs were well cared for. Highly recommend.”
“Carson was great at keeping me posted on my cats. She provided ample photos of them and made sure they were okay. She was a great communicator and always informed me when she would be there for them, and she reached out with questions if anything came up”
“AMAZING! My two kittens love her! Brit is super flexible and went above and beyond. I received photos every visit and a cute summary about how my babies were that day. Thank you so much! Will definitely be asking for her again and recommending her to friends!!!”
“We had a great experience with Alexis! She took wonderful care of our cat and followed all of our instructions perfectly. We really appreciated the updates and photos, they gave us peace of mind while traveling. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to others!”
About: I grew up around countless different species of dogs, whether it be the ones I had growing up or other peoples. Every shape, size, and breed i’ve ever encountered I fell in love with instantly. Taking care of dogs is something that comes so naturally to me being that they have been apart of my life for so long. I can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently working, but it’s always either all morning or all night, leaving me with a whole half of the day for me to take care of any dog in need! My schedule is posted weekly and I will be able to notify you of my availability for the following week every Thursday. I am very open to taking any preferences or suggestions for anyone interested in my assistance, and I will go out of my way to care for your pet as best you see fit!
“Kara was awesome! We just moved and were not excited to leave our girls so quickly, but had a family wedding in another state. She was thorough and we had no worries about how they were doing with all the updates. We greatly appreciate her care of our ladies especially all the walks they got!”
About: I've been caring for animals all my life. Dogs, hamsters and birds were part of my household growing up. My purpose and passion is to care for animals in whatever capacity I can. From dogs and cats to birds, ferrets and reptiles. I have worked in the veterinary field for 30 + years. One of those hospitals was an avian and exotic hospital. I am a certified veterinary assistant although generally preferred the front desk aspect. I have chosen to leave that field and focus on pets in their home. I love pet sitting. I've been doing it on the side for close to 30years. I particularly love senior pets and cats. I love the close relationships I develop with the animals in my care. I will love and care for you pet as I do my own. This is my full time employment. I am available to drop in to your home as much as 2-3 times a day as needed. I do not board in my home and will occasionally be available for overnight stays. I will come to your home and follow your instructions to the letter. I will keep the space clean and tidy and care for a few plants as well. Your pet will receive lots of loving attention from me. Lots of snuggles if they so choose or playtime or just general company. I respect all pets boundaries.
“Teresa is outstanding. We are very confident when traveling that our cats are shown love and affection, and that their needs are met. It was the little things she did for them/us is why we will continue to utilize Teresa. We highly recommend her.”
About: I grew up as an animal girl, we always had at least one dog at a time. I watched our neighbors dogs and farm animals growing up My work days are short and my schedule is flexible. Dogs are free to roam when I’m gone if trained or I’m happy to crate them if needed. Let me know where they sleep and I’m happy to arrange. My home is fully pet-friendly and nothing reachable for them to get into. I also live right next to a trail for long walks off the hot pavement.
“I highly recommend Sarena if you need someone to take care of your pet’s needs while you're away! She is very caring and goes above and beyond to ensure are met! Also, she is very easy to communicate with with! I will surely book with her again!”
“Avery was great. wonderful communication from the start. Appreciated time with meet n greet- and attention to my pup. I was in Clearwater for sisters surgery and Avery was very flexible given the unknowns in this crisis. Was great with my dog and I’d highly recommend!”
“Jennifer watched our cat Ozzy while we were out of town the week of Christmas and she was fantastic! Oz is very used to having us home all the time so leaving for 5 days was hard for us and him but Jennifer’s daily updates with pictures, to let us know his mood and that he was doing well was so reassuring. Would definitely recommend Jennifer as a sitter!”
“Alex needs to rule the world because it could use a little heart and kindness. My kitties adored her and made a new best friend! Her notes were very thorough and thoughtful. As well as great photos of my boys. I will definitely hire her again and will recommend her to friends as well as the Rover app. as it makes being away from my kitties a little easier knowing they’re in trusted hands”
About: Hi everyone! I’m Jessica. I’ve had pets all my life all types from reptiles to dogs cats ginnie pigs and birds. I love animals dearly there like my children. I currently have two dogs my own a miniature Yorkie and a American bulldog frenchie mix. I also train dogs if anyone would like 30 min training sessions. I understand how busy life can be and how much we care for our little beings sharing a life with us need all the love affection and time as well through our busy schedules. I’m Prior active duty military of 8 years of service so I know all about busy schedules . I trained and was certified dog handler with the U.S. Military. Feel free as well to text and any questions i am more then willing to help answer. I am from Florida and I am currently living in Clearwater. I know the ins and outs. Please don’t hesitate to contact me. Have a wonderful day everyone. I currently go to dog grooming school and do Rover time. I am available 24/7. I am also available to pick up and drop off your pets or take them to park or nice walks. Both of my current dogs are fully trained. I have scheduled eating times and play times and I have all the time in the day to give your pups all the loving according to each of their individual needs. My frenchie/bulldog mix is on medication and much older so I can also take care of dogs with disabilities, older age, or in need of specific assistance.
About: With over 18 years of dedicated house and pet sitting experience, I provide high-quality care that gives you complete peace of mind while you are away. My clients frequently note that I leave their homes even cleaner and tidier than I found them. Because I work remotely, your pets will enjoy consistent, full-time company throughout the day. I choose not to have pets of my own so that I can remain fully flexible and available for your needs. Whether your pets love active playtime or cuddling on the sofa (house rules permitting!), they will receive abundant attention and affection. Since I work remotely, I can take as many breaks as needed to feed, walk or play with your pet. I don't have any obligations at home that would prevent me from being available and attentive to your pet. I take care of pets in their home, as I think it's less stressful for them than going to a strange, new place. Whether it is just walks and play visits or I'm staying overnight, I spend lots of time interacting with them.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Clearwater is $20

Kara was awesome! We just moved and were not excited to leave our girls so quickly, but had a family wedding in another state. She was thorough and we had no worries about how they were doing with all the updates. We greatly appreciate her care of our ladies especially all the walks they got!
Julia was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She kept him active with multiple daily walks, played plenty of fetch, and closely monitored his food and water intake. We returned home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed pup. We are so grateful for her excellent care and will definitely book with her again!
Avery was great. wonderful communication from the start. Appreciated time with meet n greet- and attention to my pup. I was in Clearwater for sisters surgery and Avery was very flexible given the unknowns in this crisis. Was great with my dog and I’d highly recommend!
Emily has made the entire experience effortless. She’s punctual, responsive, and genuinely invested in Tycho’s well being. The photo updates are always appreciated and give me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet!
SYDNEY and Mario are besties after 2 30 minute visits. I couldn't be more happy and grateful for Sydney. She was punctual, came in a moments notice and very in tune with a playful Chihuahua's real needs of calm assurance being unsure in a completey new environment.
Theresa was fantastic , on time arrivals for taking care of our two dogs. She took her time with the feedings and walks. Our dogs looked relaxed when we got home. . Would highly recommend her to anyone needing this type of service. Will use her again for our upcoming trips. Pete $ Cat
Justine took such great care of my little man. He is a high energy dog with a medically restricted diet. It is very important to adhere to his feeding instructions. She did an amazing job caring for him and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable when he had some separation anxiety! Such a relief to have a dependable and trustworthy person to care for my boy!!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clearwater stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Clearwater choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Clearwater with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
