“Jenna was absolutely incredible with our 4 year old pup Otto! He is quite the walker and she went above and beyond for him, keeping him on his regular routine and more! She gave him lots of love, playtime, and attention, and spent tons of time with him which we really appreciated. She is a true dog lover! She also gave us lots of updates and pictures it helped us feel so at ease while we were away. Our dog looked like he had the best time, we will be booking her again in the future for sure. So happy to have found Jenna!”

“The dogs and I were very happy with Bonnie. They communicated often and took good care of them. We’ve already booked another service with them!”

“Abigail was once again amazing with our dogs while watching them in our home overnight. She is always quick to respond and provides plenty of info.”

Adam M.

“Rhoda was wonderful with my boy Benny! He clearly was content and happy, she communicated with texts & photos regularly & took great care of all while house sitting. Will definitely request her again!”

“My fiancé and I travel for work nearly every week and have had multiple Rover sitters at our house over the past 6 months. Emma is BY FAR our favorite gal. She takes fantastic care of our pups/kitties and is always diligent about cleaning up before she leaves, washing the sheets/towels before she leaves and even vacuuming the floors with our rumbas! She is very communicative while we’re away, sending lots of photos and updates, and is always quick to respond. We adore her and are so grateful to have her as one of our recurrent sitters!”

Melissa F.

“Ana is very responsive, and during her stay, communicated daily with pictures. She also arrived on time and even offered to stay longer, if needed. I came home to happy babies and a clean house. She was also very intentional at leaving some lights on so we would not come home to a dark house. I would absolutely hire Ana again for future services and would highly recommend her if anyone is looking for trustworthy sitter.”

Angela L.

“Madison was great again! Takes great care of our boys and we love the pictures and updates! Will definitely continue to use her and I recommend for anyone who needs good care and wants a stress free trip away from their pups”

“Nusa watched our Shih-tzu Charley for several hours while we went to dinner. She was very sweet - and sent us several photos during the evening updating us on everything. Charley was very happy - and we were able to relax knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!!!!”

About: I am a huge animal lover and right now have a lot of time to give affection and care for pets with busy parents. I am a college student and a mother to a Boston terrier and a little boy who loves to play fetch and take naps with dogs. I've taken 5 vet classes, worked at a vet clinic, and am currently working at a doggy daycare. So, I have plenty of experience when it comes to taking care of dogs. I've learned what to do if a dog gets hurt or needs CPR and the signs a dog gives off when tired or to hot and what their body language means. I have an animal science certification and a AG associates certification. I've had dogs as pets all my life so I know how to take care of a dog’s daily needs. I also know how to administer medication and give pets sub Q fluids. I’m not a dog trainer but I can teach basic tricks and house train if needed. I can also do basic grooming needs (nail trim, ear cleaning, baths, deshedding). I am taking most of my classes online so I will be home almost 90% of the time and available to give attention to your pet. I also live with my parents, sister, and son(husband is currently away in the army) who are also animal lovers so there will be plenty of people to give love to your pet. If you have any questions regarding my services feel free to ask. I’m a full time student but only have classes 2 days a week for 3 hours so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I have plenty of space in my home to pet sit and have a fenced yard big enough to run and play. So far I have only done house sitting for family friends who’s pets I’ve previously met but am comfortable with taking care of new pets as well.

“Isabella is amazing! Booked a last minute home-sitting due to a family emergency and she was response and came right away! My puppies ended up having multiples accidents and she was so kind to clean the mess up for me! She was attentive, caring, and my babies absolutely love her! She sent me multiple pictures and kept me completely updated of everything. From a first time experience for my dogs and myself, we have to say Isabella is phenomenal and I recommend her to anyone! Can’t wait to book her again for my future travels! Thank you again! ❤️”

About: As a worker for the Humane Society of Tampa Bay, caring for all animals is my greatest passion! That is what makes the purrfect pet sitter! I truly care about all animals and understand their needs. Growing up on a farm, I have become comfortable with all sorts of animals including Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, Chickens, and even Pigs! I also have experience with little ones who require extra care when fostering kittens. I am good with feeding dogs medications and remembering special directions. I am currently extremely flexible as I have a part-time internship and take mostly online classes for USF! If you need me there I will make it happen for you and your animal. I am comfortable pet sitting overnight if that is needed, and I am comfortable with large animals as well. You can count on me :)

“Ryenne was amazing with our 3 large dogs, one being a senior dog who needed extra assistance. Our youngest boy Sam fell absolutely in love with her. She did house sitting for us for six nights. I have a Ring doorbell and was three time zones away, but could always see on the camera, how much love an attention and outside time she was giving them. They didn't appear to miss us at all 🤣 as a matter of fact, when we got home, I think that Sam was quite sad she was gone. She also took great care of our home as well !! Anytime I need a drop in or house sitting again I will not even look for anyone else. Also, she is a very personable, sweet kind young lady who pays great attention to detail. So if you're looking for someone to do dropping or house fit, you couldn't pick a better person !!! Thank you again Ryenne ☺️💜”

“Jayson did a great job watching my fur babes! He sent us lots of photos and updates without even needing to ask. I felt comfortable and reassured that my pups were well taken care of while I was away. Would def rebook and reccomend.”

About: My husband and I own a rare breed cat and we also have several reptiles, all of which need special attention. Everybody's on a different diet and need specific care. I'm currently going back to full-time school 7:30 to 2:00 everyday during the week. I will be able to tend to them three times a day and available to stay the night. I work 8-hour shifts on the weekends but will still be able to tend to them three times a day. Note: I have an 8-hour block where I cannot tend to the animal. Animals need attention. Especially if they're home by themselves for many hours. I don't just sit there, I like to interact. Give them the attention they need. If your animal has separation anxiety, I don't mind sticking longer with them while I get some studying in. I'm also comfortable with administering meds. Love to send you selfies with your fur babies....or scaly babies.

“Jhana did a great job taking care of our pets! She stayed at our house and walked our dogs, administered medicine, and even watered our plants. She communicated with us to let us know how our pets were doing. We’ll definitely hire her again!”

“Thank you Tina for taking such good care of my boys! I know they were in great hands and being well taken care of. Tina is always a great communicator and my dogs always are super excited to see her.”

“Daphne was amazing with my two kitties! She came on time, played with them and updated me daily with pictures, leaving me feeling relieved while on vacation knowing they are in good hands! She was so respectful of my home and truly went above and beyond. I would definitely use her again and recommend her services!”

“We have worked with a few different dog walkers and they have all been fine but we’re a 1 time thing. We went away this weekend and Kaitlyn was amazing with our dogs. It will definitely be a regular thing. We have 2 large dogs, 1 is very particular and can get protective around people he doesn’t know. Kaitlyn took the time before we left to come over and meet the boys and made it a priority to get to know the dogs. By the time we came back (3nights) they were sleeping with her and checking the guest room to see if she was there the next night. Her communication was on point, sending pictures and letting us know how the dogs were doing throughout the weekend. Such peace of mind having here with the dogs. We will definitely be working with Kaitlyn again!”

Katrina S.

“Olivia watched my Carly over the 4th and did a wonderful job. I felt very at ease throughout the day with the updates she sent me and for taking extra time to love on my Carly during fireworks since my dog is not fond of them. She didn’t have to stay an extra hour to make sure she was calm but she did and that extra effort is so appreciated. Will definitely be booking Olivia again in the future for any pet sitting I may need.”
