About: I’m an experienced dog sitter and active foster with a deep understanding of dogs who benefit from patience, consistency, and thoughtful, attentive care. Through fostering, I’ve worked with a wide range of personalities, including dogs adjusting to new environments, managing anxiety, or coming from uncertain backgrounds. I offer overnight boarding in my home, drop-in visits, and walks. My approach is calm, structured, and intentionally low-volume, allowing me to provide a higher level of individualized attention and a predictable, low-stress routine for each dog in my care. When dogs stay in my home, I’m intentional about introductions, supervision, and maintaining a peaceful environment. I limit the number of dogs I care for at one time and thoughtfully consider temperament and compatibility to ensure a safe and comfortable experience. I’m experienced with administering medications, supporting crate routines, reinforcing training cues, and following detailed care instructions. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and subtle changes, and I communicate proactively with updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog is social and energetic or more sensitive and routine-oriented, my goal is to provide reliable, attentive care in a calm environment where they can feel safe, settled, and genuinely well cared for. Additional Note on Care Options: For dogs who are comfortable around other well-matched dogs, I offer a social boarding environment with thoughtful introductions and supervision. I also offer private, solo care for dogs who require or prefer being the only dog in my home. As this option reserves my full availability and limits additional bookings, a premium rate may apply. If your dog has specific preferences or sensitivities, I’m always happy to discuss the best fit to ensure an exceptional experience. Extended In-Home Care: For in-home visits or daycare sessions exceeding 8 hours, an additional fee may apply to reflect the extended attention and reserved time. This ensures every dog receives consistent, high-quality care throughout the day. I currently run my own business and have a flexible schedule that allows me to work from home or out of the house as needed. Because of this, I’m able to prioritize pet care throughout the day and provide reliable walks, drop-ins, and attentive supervision. I have a fenced in yard at my home, am able to walk dogs as needed and take care of dogs for drop in visits at any south Tampa home.

About: My first ever pet was a bunny when I was 8 years old, and after that I just loved having pets! I have had a family dog for 7 years, which we adopted from the SAFE Foundation in Jacksonville, FL! Porkchop has been a constant motivation for me and has made me such a dog-lover(especially big dogs!) Porkchop is an old man now, so I have experience with senior dogs. I also have experience with timid, shy, and also very hyper dogs! I can provide walks multiple times a day, I live near a big walking path next to the bay, so I am able to give long, quality walks.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Serena Is Wonderful! Serena has been amazing with our Lab, Rebel, and we couldn’t be happier with her! She’s incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and Rebel absolutely loves his time with her. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and brings such a calm, positive energy. One thing we appreciate most is how dependable she is — Serena is always willing to step in and help whenever we need extra support, which has been such a lifesaver for us.

We would absolutely recommend Serena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker — we’ll definitely keep using her!”

Fairoaks dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ahmad was a true savior to step in with minimal notice and do a 23 day booking when Nena's primary caretaker had a medical emergency. Completely professional, great communication and every picture I received of Nena...she was smiling ear to ear! Nena was in great spirits when I finally got home after a long and difficult trip, I knew she was in good hands!

Bre was absolutely great! I had a scheduling issue with my original plans, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She adjusted the schedule to fit my family’s needs, which took a huge amount of stress off my plate. It was clear she genuinely cared about helping everything go smoothly. I really appreciated her communication, reliability, and willingness to work with us. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and understanding dog sitter/walker.

I have been using Kelly on and off for about a month or so. She is great ! She communicates really well and is always so good with Lucy. It’s always hard to be away from your animal but knowing someone is there and treats them like their own makes it all the more better . I will definitely continue to re use Kelly to help Take care of Lucy !

Valerie was wonderful! We left our 10yr old german shephard at home with a friend for 6 days. The friend spent the nights but needed to go back to St Pete to work during the day. That was when I discovered Rover and Valerie, and I'm so glad I did. Valerie was always on time, communicated well, and adjusted the activity to what my old boy needed. I highly recommend her services!

Anthony has been a godsend with my sweet boy, Finn. He’s always happy to see him and cries when he leaves because he wants more of his time! He’s great at updating you with photos, taking new routes so they stay engaged, and I feel like he really cares for him! So happy I booked him to walk my boy when I’m at work!
