About: With over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, I bring a deep love and understanding to each animal I look after. From playing with energetic pups to providing extra care for senior dogs, I offer personalized, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. Your furry family members will be in trusted, caring hands with me. Working from home allows me to offer flexible pet care throughout the week. I’m available for both weekday and weekend services, adapting my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a daily visit or extended care, I can provide consistent and attentive support for your fur baby. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and welcoming environment with a fully-fenced yard, cozy beds, and plenty of toys. I provide flexible care with options like beds in my workspace for pets needing extra comfort and both large and small crates for those who feel more comfortable with their own space. I take regular breaks during the day to take pups out for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. My 6-year-old chihuahua mix loves new furry friends and will happily run around with other playful pups. My young child happily helps with animal responsibilities while also understanding the importance of respect and boundaries for all animals. Velcro dogs who prefer constant companionship are especially welcome to snuggle on the furniture and stay close.
“Rez had such a good time! We are very happy we went with Rover and Elena and her family. We received constant updates and were very well communicated with. Will definitely be leaving our baby with them again!”

“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!”

“Chante is so reliable! Our plans had a last minute change and the morning of, Chante was able help us out and watch our girl for the day. Nola loves playing with Makeda and I know I can always count on Chante to be attentive and keep us in the loop throughout her care!”

“Burphee enjoyed himself and felt safe with her. She was extremely caring and made sure I was comfortable with the whole process too. I highly recommend.”

“Haley was awesome..... she was ready and waiting for me when I dropped off the dogs and picked them up. She gave me all kinds of feedback on the dogs and it looks like they got PLENTY of exercise... the pictures and videos were great! My dogs are going back to her this evening and through the weekend and I'm very they will be with someone that I trust and know she will take care of my pups.”

“Pamela was fantastic!!! She was flexible with pick up / dropoff times. Very communicative. Sent updates on Oscar throughout the night and included a very detailed report at the end. Highly recommend, we hope to see you again soon 🥰”


“Virginia was wonderful! She did an amazing job sending videos and pictures throughout the day, which made me feel so reassured. My puppy absolutely loved playing with her pup, and he matched her energy so well. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was happy, engaged, and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Virginia!”

“Stephanie was amazing with my puppy Waylon! I had a last minute concert after just moving to Tampa and was so relieved to find someone I could trust. She kept me updated the entire time with photos and videos which gave me so much peace of mind. Waylon had the best time playing with Rory and came home happy and tired which made my next work day so much easier. I will definitely be booking with Stephanie again!”

“Madisyn is the best! My dog Steven has been going to her for about a month and he absolutely adores her! She has three dogs so Steven always has friends to play with, and she even takes them to the park and sends pics and videos. He comes home happy, exhausted, and cleaned so well I'd never have known he was playing outside if I hadn't gotten videos. Highly recommend her!”

About: I accept same day bookings but there will be 2 dollar upcharge for my non-repeating customers the first time. I have a full time job currently I work 8am-5pm. On the occasions that I can not make your animal at all times but you still would like to book my wife has all the same credentials as me and can stop in also. During the summer my walking price is a bit elevated than drop in due to the weather. I’m currently working 7-3:45p Monday through Friday in office, so on weekdays I’m only available after 430p. My weekends are usually pretty open from morning to evening. My wife currently has THURS AND FRIDAY and after noon weekends in my home we have gates to keep taller dogs out unnecessary areas, and also a lot of brain games to keep dogs interested. I love going on walks and short runs with my own dogs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
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. Not to mention i have been around dogs my whole life, my mom had 3 growing up. i realized that although im able to make money from this, it doesn't feel like a job to me at all because i absolutely love animals and i feel good taking care of them. i can say that i have found my passion in the process. i provide 5 star service and keep great communication with the owners. i am very trustworthy, and have many references to support my claims which are available upon request. i love what i do and if you allow me the opportunity to show you, i will provide great value to you and your pet’s needs. i am able to fulfill custom requests as well. anything else you would like to know just ask me, i am very transparent and personable. Thank you for the opportunity! God bless. i left my former job in 2019 to become a full time pet caretaker. my schedule is flexible, and i will most likely be able to meet your availability needs. i have set up my home to be a very safe and pet-friendly environment, they have space to roam around inside and outdoor availability as well. 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.
“Makenzi was great! My dog had so much fun and was well taken care of. She was given her medication as directed. My dog loved running around in the backyard with the other dogs and got along great with the cats. Definitely recommend!”

“Very friendly and helpful! They asked to meet the pups prior to the stay, which is a plus! Helpful with drop off time and pick up. Very reliable and communicative. The pups were happy and healthy upon return. Thank you so much!”

“Matt was all things you look for in a dog sitter—responsive, flexible, caring, etc. Our dog Lily clearly loved her time with him too! Grateful to Matt for the peace of mind while Lily was with him.”

About: I ensure that you will be overly satifised with your experience with me as your pet sitter. I do everything as I am told, and even willing to help out with things in the house when I am there if needed. If you forget to do laundry or do the dishes before you have left, those are things I can do for you as well with no hesitation! I've had experience caring for dogs for 6 years and counting. I've cared for small up to large dogs, more than one at a time as well. I make sure the dog/dogs get everything they need as well as love and even cuddles! I treat them just like family,as if they were my own paw-some dog. :)
“Such a sweet person and will make sure you get updates of your dog!! She took such good care of my puppy I recommend her 100% with how caring she is to anyones dog!! She treated my puppy like her own!”

East Tampa dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lynne and Chuck were both fantastic, and I’m thankful they were available to watch my puppy. They have an amazing fenced-in yard and they only take one client at a time which made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy with them. They were quick to respond to messages, and they sent picture updates on how Ludo was doing that day. I would recommend them to anyone looking for kind and experienced care for their pet.

Stephanie was amazing with my puppy Waylon! I had a last minute concert after just moving to Tampa and was so relieved to find someone I could trust. She kept me updated the entire time with photos and videos which gave me so much peace of mind. Waylon had the best time playing with Rory and came home happy and tired which made my next work day so much easier. I will definitely be booking with Stephanie again!

Allison was amazing with our dog, Honey! She watched Honey two days in a row and was incredibly communicative the entire time. She sent lots of pictures and videos, which made us feel so comfortable knowing Honey was having such a great time. Honey got along perfectly with Allison’s dogs and came home happy and completely exhausted from playing so much! 12/10 experience — we will absolutely be rebooking with Allison in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own!

Raquel is beyond amazing. I’m hesitant to leave a review because she is so incredible, we don’t want her to get too busy for us. Just kidding. She has become a part of our family and daily life over the last few years - with our last angel dog, Hank, to our spirited puppy. We joke we co- parent with her and couldn’t have a dog without her. We are so grateful for her love, care and support of our dogs that I thanked her in my masters graduation speech because it truly takes a village. We couldn’t speak more highly of her and we think Carl sometimes comes home bummed he can’t stay with his other mom and all his friends. She is truly meant to work with animals and it shows. Thank you.

Madisyn truly went above and beyond. My puppy had a hurt paw at the time, and she took such great care to keep it clean and make sure she was safe and comfortable. She was very attentive and sent great updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for the care she provided and would absolutely trust her again.

Crystal was amazing with my puppy! She spent two full workdays with Scout while I had to be in the office, and since Scout is only 12 weeks old and full of energy, that’s no small task. Crystal handled everything so well and made me feel completely at ease. Scout was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. I would absolutely recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

Kerry is the best! She updated me several times throughout Scooby’s daycare stay with pictures. He had an amazing time with his friend Tony too. Scooby did not even want to play tug of war when we got home which told me all I needed to know about his day. I will be requesting Kerry again for sure.

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.
