About: My home has never been dog-less. We grew up with labs and mutts. I currently have a 4 year old rescue gremlin. I have fostered 14 dogs. I have a weakness for the pitties and big drooly dogs. I volunteer with a dog rescue, Wags and Walks, so I have experience with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. Just let me know your pup's routine. I will tailor my walks to your dog's needs.... exercise, potty breaks, socialization, etc. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. Thanks for checking out my profile! I hope to meet your pup soon! I WFH so am pretty flexible with times I can swing by. Im mindful of hot florida afternoons and won't walk your dog on concrete if it means burnt paws. I'll treat your pup like my own! Your house will be locked up while we're walking and your pup will be brought back safely.
“Rachel did a wonderful job hanging out with our orange cat, Henry. She is very responsive and sent us plenty of pictures and updates. Henry has a new friend for life!”
About: Hi! I'm Madison, and caring for animals has been a lifelong passion that turned into a career. I earned my degree in Marine Science and Biology and have several years of professional experience caring for animals through wildlife rehabilitation. I've worked with animals of all personalities and needs, so I understand the patience, responsibility and attention to detail that quality animal care requires. Growing up with both dogs and cats—and now having two cats of my own—I know that pets are family. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for while you're away. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm not new to caring for animals. My goal is to earn your trust by providing dependable care, direct communication and plenty of photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member! I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable care and spend quality time with your pets. I'm happy to work with your routine to ensure they receive the attention, exercise and care they need while you're away. I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
“Zach is wonderful with Louis. Louis is recovering from surgery and Zach is gentle and kind with him. He has helped us when given little notice, too. Highly recommend him.”
“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!”
“Samantha was phenomenal with James. So many detailed updates and photos that I loved seeing when I was on my travels. I know Samantha took great care of my son with how we was acting when I got back home. I would not hesitate to book her for any pet sitting needs! She’s the best”
“I have 2 45+ lbs dogs who can be a hassle when being walked , but constance had no issue handling them. She didn't even flinch when first meeting my dogs and they started barking/howling. She is punctual, is quick to respond to messages, is very polite/friendly, and really works well with dogs.”
“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”
“Sara did a great job of taking care of our pup while we were away. She checked in on our dog multiple times a day, took her on long walks, and was very prompt with her visits. She provided multiple photo updates and our dog looked like she was very well taken care of. Will definitely use Sara again in the future! Thank you!”

I couldn’t be more happier with Samantha taking the time to drop in and check on Esme while I was out of town! Samantha was very understanding and emphatic to my situation especially when my plane was delayed and offered to come by again if needed. Esme slowly seemed to have really taken to Samantha which I was so happy with and Samantha being extremely patient with Esme. Samantha also video chatted with me so Esme didn’t get too depressed while I was gone but after watching the 2 of them together on the videos Samantha sent and my home cameras, it doesn’t seem it was needed too much! 🩷 so so grateful! Thank you so much Samantha 😊😊 you helped calm my nerves and Esme’s! If I ever happen to go out of town and in need of a pet sitter, I would def use Samantha again and would recommend her to anyone that has a pet. 😊
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

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.
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.
Took care of my cats and hedgehog over the holidays. Allison was a great communicator and took care of them well. One of my cats is very outgoing and the other is more shy -- I was surprised how quickly my shy one started playing with her and wasn't afraid at all. Wonderful, thank you.
Ellie was fantastic! Our dog is sometimes stubborn on the first few days we are away, but she was so patient with her while we were gone. She hand fed her, tried treats and multiple other suggestions we had until she got her to eat! She sends lots of photos/videos and even got our grumpy cat to accept pets from her! We couldn’t have asked for a better babysitter for peace of mind while we were away.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gandy. On Rover:

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
