“First time we've used Rover.com. Ashley was immediately responsive and made quick plans to get together with me to discuss the pet-sitting needs of Scruffy Miles and the G Pigs. She was also flexible about ensuring access to the animals during my absence. My house was left in excellent, clean condition upon my return which elevated my opinion of her services even further. And, of course, certainly appreciated the Rover cards which were natural, heartwarming, and instilled confidence my beloved animals were in very caring hands. Hope to use her again !!”
“This is our first time using the Rover service and Beth was a wonderful sitter for our 2 cats. She communicated and took photos of our babies daily. When there was an issue, she helped to get it corrected and made both our cats and us feel comfortable. She’s a great resource for those who travel”
“I cant say enough how grateful I am that I found Samantha to help with Esme while I am out of town. Esme can be a little sassy at times but I believe has grown closer with Samantha.. even if it’s little strides, it’s huge to me. It’s nice and a relief to know there is a friendly face for Esme to see when I’m not there. Samantha is very detailed in her notes and is always a pleasure to read about her visit with Esme. Thank you so much Samantha! You are a blessing!”
“Genevieve was awesome! So responsive and amazing with Lottie. It’s clear she loves animals and cares for every pet she watches. Will definitely use her again.”
“Lauren was wonderful with our shy kitties. They seemed very comfortable with her and none of them hid under the bed all week (has happened in the past). She sent good photos daily and is very responsive.”
“Maggie was great! She sent pics each visit and left updates on how they were doing. My 3 cats loved her. I’ll definitely try to get Maggie again for my next out of town trip. I was away for over 11 days! Never had to worry about my babies.”
“Jennifer was an excellent cat-sitter for my two cats while I was away for 9 days. Great communication, I felt comfortable knowing how things were going daily with each visit and she responded timely to my messages. I would definitely recommend her for your pets.”
About: I have been training and caring for animals of all sizes from dogs, cats, tiny fur babies (rodents etc.), and farm animals (mainly horses,goats,sheep,chickens). I previously worked as a behavior specialist and medical assistant at an animal shelter in Orlando for 3 years and have 3 years of professional dog handling experience at a boarding facility (also did grooming there as well.) You can trust I know how to properly and safely handle and care for your fur babies. I love all animals of all sizes but I definitely have a extra special place jn my heart for the big and fluffy ones! I Fun fact about me is a love to hike and train my German Shepherd and Pyrenees in my spare time. Currently helping care for a infant from 9-4; so availability is limited to weekend care or after/before work care. Also a good fit for people who's animals are used to them working full time. I'm available before 8am and after 5pm. My Professional knowledge along with my easygoing, calm, and Friendly demeanor/personality makes animals of all kind feel safe and comfortable around me and happy to have a new friend. I love walks, throwing ball in yard, training, or going to the park to make new friends, or for the feline like animals i love to give cuddles, play with the laser, and yummy treats. Whatever makes you critters happy will make me happy. For boarding in my home clients all dogs must be Crate trained.
About: I just moved to St pete and for the past three years I was working as an independent contractor for petwatchers LLC. I absolutely loved each and every pet that I worked with. I have worked with all kinds of pets and I am knowledgeable about feeding regiments, long walks in every single climate, overnight visits/ potty breaks, unfriendly animals, shy animals, super big and super tiny! Every visit includes a detailed report of what our visit consisted of and some pictures of your pet! I am good with administering medication and updating accordingly based on the clients needs. If you would like to set up a meeting to make sure I'm a good fit, feel free to reach out!! I am available 7 days a week and I do all kinds of pet sitting, whether that is walking, night/day, overnights, vacation visits, and anything else you need. I make sure that I understand the routine, guidelines and needs of the pet including safety concerns. I make sure I have the contacts and emergency just in case as well as create mutual trust with the owner.
About: Throughout my whole life I have always had a strong love for animals. Any time any of my neighbors went out of town I always stepped up to help out! Having a dog myself I know how much a fur baby means to their owner. You can expect the same level of care I give my dog to your pets. I currently work in a hybrid role and have control over my own schedule. I have lots of days I work from home but I do have days out in the market from 10-3. I am home at night and spend my free time with my dog! I live in an apartment but there is a dog park at the end of my sidewalk walk that’s great. I’m happy to go to your home as well. Whatever makes your pet the happiest and most at home.
About: What sets me apart is a combination of specialized, hands-on care experience and a commitment to personalized, stress-free care. I am trained in managing complex senior care needs, including medication administration, while also focusing on positive reinforcement training to help puppies build confidence and good manners. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels as comfortable as they do when you are at home. I am able to stop by as many times as needed everyday throughout the week (Monday-Friday) after 3:00Pm and able to stop by as many times as needed on the weekends (Saturday and Sunday) after 3:00Pm. Caring for pets requires prioritizing safety, building trust through communication, and maintaining a secure environment. Key actions include adhering strictly to routines (feeding, walking), securing hazards (cleaning supplies, small objects, gates), and keeping detailed records of veterinary contacts. Daily photo updates and maintaining hygiene ensure peace of mind.
“Can’t thank Elizabeth enough for looking after my furry ones. She goes above and beyond making sure everyone is taking care of as well as ensuring everything is tidy and clean. Truly appreciate all she does and will definitely want her to look after them again!”
“Randi was a lifesaver!! She was kind enough to jump in to take care of our two cats with a very short notice when our original petsitter became unavailable. She was wonderful with the kitties, and we cannot thank her enough.”
“Thank you so much Libby for taking such great care of my Dad’s cat while he was on his first vacation in forever!! He was so worried to find someone he could trust, and you did a wonderful job! We appreciated all the detailed updates and the time you spent with him. We will definitely be using you again! 🥰”

Kierra was absolutely wonderful taking care of Kiki! ❤️ It made me so happy to see in the videos how excited Kiki was every time she came to visit. Kierra didn’t just stop by to take care of her needs; she spent quality time with her, gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure she felt comfortable and cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Kiki was in such loving hands while I was away. I’m so grateful for her kindness and care, and I would absolutely recommend Kierra to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! 🐾❤️
Breanna was amazing! I received lots of photos of my cat and she took great care of him when I was out of town. She is very reliable and sent me text updates about him as well. My cat was in great hands with Breanna. This was my first experience with a Rover sitter and I felt so safe leaving him in her care. I would absolutely trust her with his care again in the future!

Maria is such a great Rover. She has great communication and always makes me feel like my cats are in good hands while I’m away. My cats just love her too! She is attentive and makes sure to spend time playing with them and loving them as if they are her own.
Jocelyn always goes the extra mile, she cleans up after our pets, gives them the love and attention they need. It’s like we never left! Also, she was so kind and thoughtful to bring in our packages when we were gone. Super courteous and a great communicator. Nice to have someone we can trust with our house and beloved cats while we are gone!
Jennifer was an excellent cat-sitter for my two cats while I was away for 9 days. Great communication, I felt comfortable knowing how things were going daily with each visit and she responded timely to my messages. I would definitely recommend her for your pets.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Gandy is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $1 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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.
