“Kristen went above and beyond for my Bruno! And she did it on short notice and a holiday none the less. Couldn't be more thankful for her dropping in. I will ask for her again!!”

“This was our first time having Debbie take care of our new kittens and their first time with having a sitter. Everything went so well! Debbie was caring, patient and communicative which I appreciate. She was even able to get our skittish little girl to come out and spend time with her. Thank you for taking such good care of the babies, Debbie. Would definitely recommend!”

“If you are trying to find someone to trust within your home and with your precious animals then Jeana is the one to choose! I booked her last minute and she was available and eager to take over. Sent images / updates twice a day and not only took care of my cats but my home as well! Anything you need just communicate and she will get it done, I never thought I would find someone so trusting and kind and the fact that she left a card for us when we came home was a whole new level! Thank you again for watching my fur babies and we will 100% be rebooking!”

“Cassie took great care of my best friend. Communicated flawlessly and followed all directions. My cat is always terrified of strangers but she seemed to love Cassie immediately! Thank you!!”

“Brandi is always amazing with our dog! She handled his medication schedule perfectly and made sure he got everything he needed while we were away. We got regular updates and pictures. Super reliable and attentive — we’ll definitely book again!”

“Adriana was great!. She hit if off immediately with my three-month old Shihpoo, and her first visit had accompanying photos and a report of Roisin's activities. I will use her again!”


“Christine was wonderful with Gizmo. Even though it was their first time meeting, he warmed up immediately to her. It was a drop in visit for an hour but when we came home he was playing with her and it almost seemed like he didn’t miss me at all! I’m sure he is looking forward to spending more time and doing some overnights with Christine.”

About: Please read through all of my profile before submitting a request as I have specifications that your dogs may or may not meet. Also please note that puppies are an addition fee of $20 that will get adjusted after we communicate. I am a semi retired certified dog trainer and have been training and boarding for 20 yrs. I worked closely with rescues and animal shelters and was training director for a shelter in southern California. I require a mandatory meet and greet before accepting new dogs, but there could be an odd exception. I generally only have one dog at a time, although may take two dogs maximum, if I think they are a compatible match. I am rarely gone for more than two hours at a time. All adult dogs must be spayed/ neutered. Puppies under 9 months should be crate trained and would need the crate brought with them. My border/husky mix is a playful boy but is also respectful of older dogs who dont want to play. I have a pool they can swim in. Your dog will always be supervised when outside. I am happy to work on training while boarding if you wish. Thanks, and I look forward to meeting your kids! NOTE: I no longer take in Bully breeds or mixes of the breed due to homeowner restrictions. Also I would need to reject any dogs that show aggression so please be upfront I will know immediately with my experience. I'm retired so home most of the day so we get to play and cuddle most of the daytime and night. It's up to them where they want to sleep. Padlocks on gates. Safety is my number one priority. I worked many years in animal shelters and as a trainer and know exactly how to keep them from getting out and lost.
“Olga took great care of our cats. She’s very reliable and responsive, which made our time away from home free of headaches. We absolutely loved the pictures we received every day, which was one of our trip's highlights.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dunedin
Mia was amazing! She assisted in all we needed for our cats while we were gone for the week. Even when I would reach out to ask questions regarding the cats she always answered quickly. My husband and I loved the daily updates and pictures of the cats. It made our day every single time. We will definitely be rebooking with Mia moving forward.

Christine was punctual, efficient, and spent extra quality time with Weechee. Weechee tragically lost his Kahu without warning in April. He usually will barely eat the first time someone cares for him. Christine not only played with Weechee, but had him join in on a daily yoga session which helped keep him calm and form a special bond with her. I highly recommend her as your pets temporary Kahu!

We faced the unfortunate reality of my German shepherd getting sick while in Kristen’s care. She was fantastic, saw to his needs, and cleaned up and all messes. I feel that she charges far too less on Rover for all she does and has done for me. If you ever need a pet sitter, I recommend Kristen be your first choice.

Kadence did a great job for me. She's a lovely person and really seems to care about our animals. They came rushing out to meet her when we first met her last week, which is a good sign because Harris is very picky about who he likes. I'll definitely use her again.

Another great experience with Alex. Our kitties miss her already. Alex does a great job with our gang and even got our shy girl Tribble to at least come out of hiding and watch the boys play with the feather stick. Tribble participating is another thing! Alex shows up early, checks in on the app, and she brought in packages that showed up that we thought we stopped and let us know they were there. She was concerned about something being wrong with our gas fireplace and sent pictures. Turns out nothing was wrong just an old fashioned pilot light system from the 90s but we most definitely appreciate her checking on it. Alex sends lots of pictures and spends time playing with the kitties. When we have out pre trip meetup to go over things our big guy meets her at the door and sits on her lap the whole time she is here. We highly recommend Alex. You will not be disappointed!

Courtney was phenomenal! We had such detailed notes for Jax, and she flowed them great. She sent constant detailed updates, gave lots and lots of chin rubs and provided the care and relief we needed to be able to go away. It’s scary introducing an 18 year old cat to a new person per the first time and we felt safe and comfortable leaving him in her wonderful care. We will certainly use her services again if we ever get another weekend away.

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!
Went out of town for long weekend, Olga stopped by once a day in the afternoon to check in with my cat Dixie. Sent back pictures and info. everyday. Cat seemed very happy in photos. Just got home little while ago, Dixie seemed fine, like she was well taken care of. Would be very confident for Olga to watch my pet next time I go out of town !!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dunedin is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 6,419 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dunedin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
