About: I've always had a way with dogs and all animals, since I was a child. My positive energy and kind spirit brings animals close to me. Through out my entire life I have walked dogs of friends, family and neighbors, just for the fun of it! Dogs bring me joy and spending time with them on walks is my favorite thing to do in my spare time. Seeing their faces light up when they see Miss Laura coming, knowing they are going on an adventure, brightens my day! Fresh air and exercise is the best recipe to a happy pup! Allow me the opportunity to help out with your fury friend when life gets hectic and a long walk cant fit into your daily schedule. Thank you and have a great day! I have an open schedule for the most part and taking walks is part of my daily routine, spending it with an animal would be great! I will be just walking dogs but safety and trust is important, as I will ensure safe places to walk and proper clean up in residential areas and or parks.
About: I’ve been able to take care of some of my family member’s pets over the years. From bigs to small dogs, my love and care does not vary. I’m currently working towards a certification in Veterinary Technology at St. Petersburg college online. I schedule most likely always free because I don’t have to commute to school. I always follow any directions left my the owners, no matter what. I never do anything more or less because I don’t ever want to overstep any boundaries.
About: My love for animals started at a young age! 🤍 I began caring for cats when I was 15, when I had a cat of my own. At 19, I welcomed my very first dog, a beautiful Siberian Husky with the prettiest blue eyes! 🐾 Over time, I started walking my neighbor’s dog and helping family members care for their pets whenever they traveled or needed an extra hand. What started as something I genuinely loved eventually grew into professional pet sitting. I understand that pets are family, and I want every pet parent to feel comfortable and confident knowing they’re little (or big!) furry friend is receiving love, attention, and care while they’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friends! 🤍🐶🐱🐾 I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your furry friends! 🐾 I’m available for boarding, pet sitting, and doggy daycare, and I’d love to make your pet feel right at home while you’re away. Whether you need someone for a few hours, a full day, or an overnight stay, I’ll make sure your fur baby receives plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always a priority, and I want you to feel at ease knowing they’re in loving hands. 🤍🐶🐱 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities. 🤍 I’ll make sure they have fresh water, regular meals according to your instructions, plenty of opportunities for potty breaks and exercise, and lots of love and attention. I’ll also respect your pet’s routine, follow any special care instructions, and make sure they’re in a safe, comfortable environment. You can feel confident knowing your furry family member will be treated with patience, kindness, and care. 🐾
About: I've been taking care of large and small dogs since i was 10, as well as exotic animals such as hedgehogs and ferrets. I'm one of the main care takers for 2 great danes, one being a senior, and a miniature dachshund. I'm not currently working anywhere, I have a completely free schedule besides caring for my animals. I'm free most days except days to recover since I am disabled. I love playing with my fur babies, whether it's fetch or tug of war. I can run around with them for brief periods of time and crate them if needed. I give pets many kisses and love unless the owner specifies otherwise.
About: Hello! Thanks for stopping by. My name is Alyssa and my husband’s name is Aaron. We have 2 wonderful children. We do not currently have pets, but we’ve previously had 2 large dogs together and multiple pets before being married. I am a Certified Dog Trainer. I’m turning a passion into a career and I cannot be more excited! I love animals and would love to help you with yours when you can’t. We have experience with puppies and senior dogs. We can also administer medication. My husband just started his own business so I have time to myself to look after your fur baby(‘s). My kids adore animals as well and would love to tag along if possible. But I can always come alone if kids make your fur babies nervous. My goal is to keep your doggy or kitty in the same routine they’re use to. Leaving your pet can be hard, but hopefully I can make it a little easier on you, knowing they are well loved and cared for with me! We love going to the dog park near our house, if you would not like us to take your dog with us, just let us know! Otherwise we can walk on the trail or go on some hikes. Or just lounge around the house and rub some bellies! We prefer to kennel/crate for safety and comfort. Being in a new environment can be a lot for an animal and having the safety of a den like crate adds a lot of comfort and safety!
About: Hi there! I’m a Registered Nurse (I’m a care taker by nature!), and fur mama to an English Golden Retriever and a German Shepherd. I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child and have volunteered at my local animal shelter. I also grew up in Michigan with 3 beagles, and 3 cats! I don’t consider taking care of animals “work” because if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life! There’s no bigger worry than wondering if your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I’m here to help ease that anxiety, sending you lots of photos and updates through the day. I treat each and every pet as they are my own. I’m looking forward to giving all the love and snuggles to your fur family! I work 3 days a week as a Registered Nurse working 12 hour shifts. If you are scheduled to have your dog at my house during any of my working days, my husband will be home all day those days to accommodate your pup! I have a full fenced, very large backyard to keep your pups safe and plenty of area to play. Please see photos attached to profile for reference of yard! I also have a large dog crate to utilize if your dog requires to be crated for nighttime. *** Please note: if you are booking an in-home drop off at my house, I only accept large dog breeds due to my German shepherd only “liking” being around larger dogs.

My hours very based on my job and when I have my baby’s with me I live in a house with a fenced yard, I really am only interested in dog walks but your dogs are safe with me(: I love long walks and I’m happy to take any kind of dog for a walk
About: I treat every dog like they’re my own, giving them love, attention, and care no matter their age or personality. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I make sure they feel safe and happy. Pet care already fits naturally into my routine because my dachshund is a big part of my day. I’m used to planning my schedule around walks, feeding times, and quality time, so adding another pup just feels like more love and fun in my week. I care for pets with the same love and attention I give my own dachshund. That means regular walks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and plenty of cuddles. I make sure their space is safe and comfortable, and I keep them happy, relaxed, and stress-free whether they’re at my home or theirs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fruit Cove choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter 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.
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.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
sitters 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 sitter.
