About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable handling puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, shy pets, and animals with special routines or medication needs. Because I’m home full-time, pets in my care receive constant supervision, companionship, and personalized attention throughout the day. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for like family. I understand how important routines, patience, and trust are when caring for animals, and I always treat each pet as if they were my own. I work from home full-time, so your pets will have constant supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, which allows plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding routines, cuddles, and any special care your pet may need. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-ins during both weekdays and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals are never left alone for long periods of time. Since I’m home 24/7, I can closely monitor behavior, maintain routines, and give pets lots of attention and reassurance. I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep fresh water available, and can accommodate medications or special instructions if needed. Fully insured through PCI!!!!!!!!
About: I’m not just your regular pet sitter, I’m a cool pet sitter! Welcomed with love, I’ll care for your animals like they are my own. My routine is pretty simple and usually revolves around the care of my child and your pets! I work from home as a social media manager :) I’ve cared for animals all my life from dogs and cats to exotic pets and farm animals, and have knowledge on how to keep your pet safe in my home and on walks.
“Ashley has been walking my pup for almost two years and she is incredibly reliable. She informs me if my pup is acting oddly and also goes above and beyond to give her a second walk if I have to stay late at work. My pup and I highly recommend Ashley!”
About: I have been around and taking care of dogs since I could walk. I love all kinds and sizes of dogs. I will always put your dogs interests ahead of me when I take care of them. Making sure they are let outside, feed, fresh water, loved. Also if you’re interested in a dog lover look no further. If your dog gets dirty or has a mess I’ll clean up. If you need plants watered I’ll take care of it. If you need light cleaning around the house I’ll take care of it(like vacuum only if provided) bring in the mail. If needed to take you dog to their favorite place if able to or if your dog wants to just snuggle on the couch is awesome as well. I like being able to help whenever I can. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I love dogs. If I get into a good routine with your dog all the better. I provide in your home service from walking or if you have a fenced in yard I’ll play with your dog outside. I provide safety by knowing my surroundings and knowing what your dog is capable of.
About: I’ve taken care of pets ranging from young adult to senior age. I rescued a feral kitty with major injuries, worked with Tampa Bay Humane Society to take care of her health concerns, and officially adopted her in 2024. I have experience with caring for pets with seizures, needing diaper changes, having specific dietary needs, and more. I’m available any time, currently I have a lot of free time so I’m able to give your pets the attention they need even on short notice. I have a cat in one hole and multiple dogs in another and I give them whatever they need to be happy with me, in my clients home I do exactly as is needed
About: What makes me different? I'm reliable and have my own transportation. I have a rescue cat and a long haired German Shepherd that are both treated very well. I've almost always had dogs and cats of all kinds! I also once owned a horse where I did dressage, show jumping and eventing. I understand what it feels like to leave your animals in someone else's care, and I also feel it's important to leave the pet owner informed along the way. I am comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, large breeds and cats of all kinds. I can provide walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box care, basic brushing, routine oral or topical medication when clearly instructed and can provide plenty of attention. I understand that good pet care is about much more than putting on a leash or filling a food bowl. Pets have routines, rules and individual needs. I'm comfortable following detailed feeding and walking schedules, caring for pets who are sensitive to the Florida heat, adjusting activities for puppies, seniors and pets with physical limitations or other special considerations. I'll follow the routine you establish for your pet rather than changing what already works. My Army background taught me the importance of being dependable, following instructions and showing up when I say I will. Those qualities matter even more when someone is trusting me with both their pet and their home. I've lived in the New Port Richey area for six years and am active in my local community and city government. I make my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility for walks, feeding, potty breaks and drop in visits throughout the day. I intentionally keep my service area small, so I can spend my time caring for pets rather than driving all over Pasco County. I especially welcome families in the Gulf Harbors and Sea Forest neighborhoods as well as pet owners west of US 19 and downtown New Port Richey. I don't like seeing a pet sitter who lives so far away from the pets in their care. Send me a message if you'd like to meet me and where I could meet your furry family member! I am retired and active, so I can easily accommodate when you need pet care. I love to care for pets and walking dogs is a favorite activity. If your dog doesn't walk, I can also happily push a stroller:-) As a former military officer, trust is SO important to me. I have used Rover myself for about 15 years on and off for my own pets, especially when I was new in town and did not know anyone. I've been lucky to always have a good experience, so plan to offer the same security that your pet is in good hands!

“Meet & Greet went great! Rada is was so nice! 10/10 recommend. She was so friendly with the dogs right off the bat, sat right on the floor and got to know them. Walks seem to have gone great! Booked relatively last minute and she was super accommodating/ flexible. Right on time as planned and dogs seem so happy / content which is all I can really ask for. Knowing they are taken care of the way I would take care of them, or even better, is such a relief. Definitely planning to book more frequently.”
About: Ever since high school, I’ve been caring for pets and dog walking for family, friends, and neighbors. What started out as helping people in my neighborhood turned into something I truly love doing, and have continued all throughout college. Working with animals has always been a passion of mine, and pet sitting helps me do what I love while making some extra income as I transition into my post-grad life. Your pet’s safety and well being are always my top priorities. I do my best to stick to your pets routines and am happy to send you plenty of photos and check ins so you have peace of mind while you're away. Send me a message and I’d love to set up a meet and greet! I am currently available on weekends for pet sitting and dog walking bookings. My schedule is flexible so feel free to message me for any inquiries! Whether your pet wants to play, run around, or cuddle, I am happy to adjust to their needs. My top priority is always to make your pet feel most comfortable and taken care of!
About: On top of having pets from the age of 5 and being expected to tend to their needs, I worked locally as a pet sitter in Chattanooga for a Happy Hound Pet Sitting. I am pet first aid certified Being a full time student, flexibility in my work schedule is key. I love to spend my free time outdoors and with animals so combining the two to make extra income while finishing my degree is a win-win! Plus getting to be around cute animals gives me that extra boost of serotonin when I’m especially stressed out after a hard day of classes! I have four animals in my home already and while I do have a fenced in back yard, my cats are a bit territorial if they don’t know you, though they are never aggressive. My dogs are incredibly friendly and love meeting new friends. I anticipate that if I am at a clients house I will always ensure that the pup is leashed prior to leaving the house. If in the backyard I will ensure any gates leading out are closed and no holes that could manage escape are seen
“Ashley was amazing with our pup. She had great communication and was such a help to us as we needed a walker last minute. Our dog loved her and is very thankful she was able to walk and hang out with him. Thank you so much!!”
“Carly is very thorough and makes sure she knows everything about the care of your pups! She was excellent with communication and truly cared about my pups! Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have experience caring for dogs belonging to family and friends.

I work full time as a front desk receptionist, which will vary from 6-8 hour work days. I have a lot of time before or after my shifts to care for your fur babies, and i would be more than happy to help how I can! I will happily come to you and follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Elfers. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Elfers after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elfers. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 walker.
