“Elizabeth was an absolutely amazing petsitter for our cat. Having a very social kitty meant a lot of anxiety on our part leaving him for a week. Elizabeth absolutely eliminated that anxiety for us. Leo took to her right away and it was very obvious that she just has a way with animals. She took great care of him during the week and provided us with wonderful updates on him complete with adorable photos. She even reached out when our Litter Robot was giving a strange signal to make sure it was working okay. We came back to a happy and healthy little guy and I can’t thank her enough for that! We will be reaching out directly to her first in future whenever Leo needs care. Thank you, Elizabeth!”
“When our Jed met Jaritza, it was love at first sight. Our Jeddy knew she was there to take good care of him as she did. I felt very comfortable since the day they met and she did a great job making sure he had his play time and a long walk. She went above and beyond by agreeing on my daughter’s request of putting some milk and cookies for Santa 🎅 on Christmas Day 🎄. Thank you Jaritza for your kindness.”
“She was recommended to us by our previous pet sitter who moved away, and we couldn’t be happier. She was able to accommodate a same-day drop-in when we were in a pinch. She did everything we asked and went above and beyond, and she sent lots of lovely pictures! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and currently have two beautiful doggies, tiger and Hazel and they are super friendly! We have a 5 acre fenced property with a pool so they will enjoy their stay with us! My hubby says I cannot have any more dogs so I am now offering to sit and walk other friendly dogs. My two dogs love having friends and play dates at our house! Daily I wake up at 6am and let them out and feed them and let them hang out until I leave for work around 9:30am and when our teenagers get home around 2pm they get let out again and hangout until I get off at 6 or 7pm. They get fed again and have playtime and then bedtime is around 9pm. My doggies do great on that schedule and they are very active and love to hangout with us on the pool deck area. I have three kids, Karin is 21, Natalie is 18 and Gus is 16 and they all love animals! We also have chickens and goats and we all take care of them as a family. I care for my pets inside of our home, we also have a huge kennel we built that has a built in water spout and a fan. The kennel has a roof and is shaded year round. We also let them inside and on the screened in pool deck. They have crates also which I will use from time to time but for the most part I let them free roam in the kitchen or living room and use a doggie gate to section them off so they dont get into anything. They usually just follow me around and watch me cook dinner. :)
“Kelli was awesome with the dogs. She visited them twice and gave them long walks and a little jog. She also gave us updates of her visit and how the dogs were doing. We will definitely use Kelli again and we highly recommend her!”
“I feel so lucky to have found Brittany to check in on our cat, Wilson, while we were away! Great communication with lots of pictures and videos. Wilson was well loved and the house was tidy when we returned. Highly recommend Brittany for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I have cared for pups big and small, young (8 weeks) and old (13 years), sassy and chill! I love them all, and so far - they all love me too! I am also a photographer, so what better than receiving stunning photos of your babies while you are away! Self proclaimed belly rub expert! With two school aged children - week days between 9:30am-3pm are the best for my schedule at the moment. Available most weekends! I like to spend a fair amount of time with my clients because I believe social interaction and comfort is so important! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, so creating a safe and comforting environment comes naturally to me. I make sure my furry friends always have fresh food and water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention while also respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. Some pets love immediate cuddles, while others need time to feel comfortable, and I’m happy to meet them where they are!!
“100% RECOMMEND!!! We just moved back to WC/Zephyrhills area (sooner than planned) & our prev dog sitter ghosted us less than a mo before we were lvg for ~3 wk int'l trip. Alhough a family member would be staying @ our home we still wanted someone just for our fur babies... we were blessed w/ Shasta! She was all in for a meet/greet in our home. After a great ph convo, we invited her husband too bc w/ the length of time gone, we wanted her to know the pups wouldn't mind some more company. Shasta is an excellent communicator, she truly loves animals (they're not a $ to her) & she really works w/ you to accommodate needs/requests. This was our 1st drop-in & Shasta made it the BEST (2x a day). I can give so many examples, but for me it boiled down to: Her connection to our boys, her flexibility & her willingness to be on camera (lol). I hv medical needs & my panic disorder gets pretty intense when traveling w/out Gio. This was huge to me, Shasta gave consent to the streaming cameras we set up in the pupsters main areas. This allowed me to stay connected & grounded w/ a video or live view, so that my mental/physical health stayed in check. Most ppl don't understand the enormity of this gift. Also, when I saw the pure excitement oozing from our boys when Shasta (& hubby) were w/ them, playing & loving on them, no one could ask for more than that sight. Having a trained nurse w/ your kiddos... +BLESSING!”
About: What sets me apart is the amount of time and attention I can give each pet. Since I work from home, pets in my care receive frequent potty breaks, companionship, supervision, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to follow owners' instructions carefully, so pets feel safe, comfortable, and love while they're away. I pride myself on being reliable communicative and treating every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with my own pets, from their puppy stage until their current senior years. In addition, I have administered daily oral, intravenous, and eye medications to my pets. I currently work from home, so your pets can sit with me all day. They will have consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally around my workday without interfering with my job and will rarely be left alone. Pets will receive attention, exercise and care from morning through bedtime. I have a fenced yard, an older male Shih Tzu, and a young male Tuxedo cat. I am reliable and will communicate with pet parents as requested. Frequent updates and photos will be provided. I have experience with my own pets with giving medications, recognizing signs of illness, and reading pet body language.
“We were so happy to be able to have Meagan do check-ins with our cat, Bean, again! Bean is usually extremely shy but warmed right up to her, and we feel so much better having to leave her knowing that she is well taken care of!”

I look forward to meeting you & your furbaby!! 💞 I spend everyday with my two cats, along with working a few days a week at a veterinary clinic where i’m learning more and more each day on how to provide optimal care for animals. I have an additional room in my home to provide a private space for your pet which is completely sanitized after each guest. I provide treats of all different types for everyone’s pallet and dietary needs. I have a reliable source of transportation to ensure I can be there for your loved one. I have multiple sizes of leashes for walks, crates for any anxious or needing pets and plenty of toys and time to keep them entertained.
“I would give Doris a 7 STAR rating! We had a vacation planned and a family member who normally watched our wonderful fur babies, experienced a personal emergency and was not able to dog sit for us. Last minute we turned to Rover. We had never utilized Rover before, being a little apprehensive...of course we all love our dogs as family!!! We reviewed Doris P. profile, seeing she was in close proximity to our house. With less than a week notice (until our vacation) Doris responded immediately letting us know she was available. Wow, is all I can say! She was GREAT with them both!!! Doris sent many pics of them smiling and the largest baby playing catch with a ball, it was quite obvious they loved her too! We greatly appreciated her being willing to come with such a short notice...she literally saved our vacation!!! Much Thanks Doris!!”
“Tiffany was AMAZING!! She cared for our kittens and was so careful with the doors so they didn’t get out. She kept in touch with pictures and texts! Will be calling in her for our next trip!!”
“We had a last-minute situation and Haley came to the rescue! She did an excellent job taking care of our dog Yori and cat Tilly. We're grateful for her flexibility and the peace of mind she provided. Highly recommended!”

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 Dade City 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
