“Haley was amazing! She was so understanding and accommodating with our very very shy puppy. She was wonderful with making him feel comfortable even when he was trying to hide. She also kept us updated throughout the day with pictures which we loved! She was the first Dogsitter we’ve had since our pup is terrified of everyone and everything but she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about everything!”

“Carley was great! I had no doubt from the moment I met her and her sweet fur baby that my little guy would be fine. Clean and comfortable home, would book again if I’m back in the area.”

“Madisyn and her boyfriend welcomed Libby. When I picked up Libby, it looks like she was having a good time with the other dogs. Would definitely recommend and bring my dogs back.”

“Absolutely the best! Cash had a great time at Virginia’s and she took amazing care of him. Sent tons of photos and updates, which was super appreciated! Will definitely be requesting her again when we need a sitter.”

“They were a dream team taking caring of my puppy! Very knowledgeable and are extremely easy going. They’re in such an accessible area too. My pup can be pretty clingy but she was a bit hesitant to leave. Cannot recommend them enough!”

About: I have 3 dogs, one for 12 years and they are all so particular. I more than anyone else understand how difficult it is to find the best care for your furbabies when you have to go out of town or out of country. All my dogs have different diets and quirks so I have become accustomed to understanding my pets and their needs. Not only am I the best rubs giver but I love play time, which I think is important for pets and their overall happiness. I work from home in a spacious apartment close to many dog parks and Riverwalk where we could go for walks. I also love going to Cypress Point Park Beach for plane watching and would often bring my own doggos. This fits perfectly into my schedule as I work from home. I care for pets by treating them as if they're my own. There is no other way to care for animals that is acceptable to me. I care for them based on their needs and preferences as animals have personalities and that is something that should be considered and respected. Normally people would say they "child proof" their home but I dog proof mine lol
About: I'm very good with the little ones at home. I like to teach them new tricks and give them love and companionship, which is what our best friends need. I have plenty of time to provide love and companionship for your pup. I love playing with them and teaching them new tricks. I love dogs and treat them as they deserve, like a member of my family. I love puppies more than anything, I love spending time with them and teaching them new tricks. I am the kind of person who will treat your puppy as he deserves, like a member of the family. I will take care of your little one as a member of my family because that's what they deserve. I will give them lots of love and good company.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, from childhood adventures bringing home stray dogs to years of raising and training my own. Over time, I’ve learned how to meet pets where they are; whether that means patient guidance for a curious puppy or gentle support for a senior dog who moves a little slower but still loves to be loved. I’m especially experienced in senior care after spending nearly 9 wonderful years with our 14 year old boy, Zeke. Supporting him through his golden years taught me the importance of attentiveness, comfort, and encouragement — every tail wag was worth the extra care. When it comes to training, I’m the designated puppy whisperer in our home. I’ve always taken the lead on obedience work and new-dog transitions, with a calm, consistent approach that builds trust and good habits. Above all, I believe pets thrive with love, patience, and positive energy — and that’s exactly what every animal in my care will receive. I work from home full-time so daily walks, playtime, and cuddles are already part of our routine. Caring for pets feels second nature. Our late pup, Zeke, taught us how much consistency and love matter, so every pet in our care gets that same steady, gentle attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. We have a fenced backyard for safe play, and I’m attentive and present throughout the day. A crate is available if needed, and our playful Frenchie, Fig, loves keeping other dogs entertained. Every pet is treated with care, patience, and love.
About: I am a dedicated dog sitter committed to providing love, care, companion and tail-wagging adventures for your furry friend in your absence or when needed. I am currently working part time from home, so I have the time to sit and keep your puppy company and provide good care. .. In-Home Pet Sitting: I Create a comfortable and safe environment for the pet. I stick to the pet's regular feeding and walking schedule. I engage in playtime and provide companionship and administer any required medications as well as keeping the living space clean and tidy. Client's Home Pet Sitting: I familiarize myself with the pet's routine and preferences. I try to follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding and exercise. I ensure the security of the client's home. I communicate regularly with the pet owner and provide updates. And I try to be attentive to any specific needs or health concerns.
“Calix was an amazing sitter! Great at communicating, sent plenty of pictures, and was super understanding when I was running a little late. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. Will definitely book again!”

“Chante was great! We needed someone to watch our 6 month old puppy for a couple of days of daycare and our pup had a great time! She played all day in Chante’s large fenced in backyard with Makeda and came home happy and sleepy! Chante was super accommodating of our schedules and super quick to respond throughout the day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their pups!”

“Cynthia was super accommodating and made finding a trustworthy, dependable sitter such an ease! She was very kind and attentive to my pup Maya, spending extra time to make sure she was comfortable and cared for. I’m so grateful to have found a sitter like Cynthia and highly recommend her!”
“Amanda and Matthew were excellent! When I dropped Xoey off, Amanda was welcoming and invited me to see her home where Xoey would be staying. Their pup is just the sweetest and got along great with mine! I could tell they provided great care to my baby and I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again next time we're in the Tampa area!”

“Mindy had a great time with Jenna while I went to the Patriots-Bucs game. Jenna sent me a couple of pix and a video of Mindy playing. She then brought Mindy directly to my hotel. This was my first time using Rover and I’m extremely satisfied. Mindy will be seeing Jenna again soon!”

“What a wonderful sitter!! My pup had such a great time and made a new bestie!! Caroline is super sweet and attentive. She sent lots of pictures & videos which gave me peace of mind while my girl was away. 10/10 would recommend”

About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting since 2015, it started out looking after my neighbor’s 2 dogs and before i knew it, the good word spread around in my neighborhood and i became the local pet sitter, everything grew after that.

There is also a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. i am very respectful when entering other people’s homes and i view it as a privilege that they trust me in their home. i mind my own business and only do what the owner asks of me. i treat other’s homes as i would want mine to be treated.
About: I’ve had multiple dogs in my house all throughout my life and love taking care of them, I currently have a mini golden doodle who loves his little life! I recently left my job so I have ample free time to handle pet care. I am free all throughout the week, at all points throughout the day. My schedule is as free as it gets and I am looking to spend it with dogs! I live in a condo but we have a dog park within walking distance and a big open field I take my dog to. If you need your dog to stay here, my girlfriend and I love having more dogs in our space. For me, it’s all about making the dog feel comfortable and giving it all the attention that it needs. If I am watching your dog or walking your dog, that will be my only focus!
About: Growing up in a dog-loving family, I’ve been surrounded by wagging tails and wet noses my entire life - and I wouldn’t have it any other way! What started as a childhood love for saying “doggie” has blossomed into genuine expertise in canine care and training. I specialize in positive reinforcement training for both energetic puppies learning their first lessons and wise senior dogs who deserve patient, understanding care. Working from home means I’m always available to give your furry family member the attention and love they deserve. Your dog will have an instant playmate in my 3-year-old labradoodle, Rory, who’s always ready for a game of fetch or a friendly romp. Our spacious, securely fenced backyard provides the perfect safe haven for outdoor adventures, zoomies, and sunny afternoon naps. When you choose me, you’re not just getting a pet sitter - you’re gaining a passionate dog advocate who treats every pup like family. I understand that leaving your beloved companion requires complete trust, and I’m honored to provide that peace of mind while you’re away. I work remote so I’ll be available to walk the dogs as much as needed. I walk Rory at least 3 miles daily so there will be plenty of exercise I have a pet friendly home and a huge fenced in back yard for the dogs to play and roam whenever they want to! Rory loves company.
East Tampa dog parents share their Rover experiences
Mindy had a great time with Jenna while I went to the Patriots-Bucs game. Jenna sent me a couple of pix and a video of Mindy playing. She then brought Mindy directly to my hotel. This was my first time using Rover and I’m extremely satisfied. Mindy will be seeing Jenna again soon!

Madisyn was such a great dog sitter! I was visiting Tampa for the Sunday NFL game with patriots vs buccaneers and needed a last minute daycare visit till the game ended. She was able to accommodate me last minute and take care of Pintxo and even took him on a walk before I picked up and he slept on the 3hr drive back home! I will definitely use her again if I’m ever in the area again!

Gabby was absolutely amazing with my dog, Winnie. She has a kind, out-going personality that put us both at ease from the beginning. Winnie did not miss me at all. Gabby is very active and took Winnie for a long walk and out for treats. Winnie came home happy and tired.

Emily was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. My dog seemed to really love her— when I picked him up, she left the room for like 2 seconds and he got so excited to see her come back, which isn’t something he always does! She had him all day while I was at work with no issues. I’d definitely recommend her!

I highly recommend that you use Isis! She provided excellent care to my dog and was great at communication. Rigby has separation anxiety which makes it hard to leave her but it felt good knowing she was in good hands and the photos Isis sent put my mind at ease. Their dog Bluey is a total sweetheart as well.
