About: For the past 7 years I have been the go-to pet caretaker in my neighborhood, treating every dog like a member of my own family. Dogs have been members of my own family for the last 22 years. Your pets safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I promise to send plenty of photo updates so you can enjoy total peace of mind. I am currently working from home which give me the flexibility to be available anytime Monday- Sunday. I can do house visits for walks and check-ins. I live in a house with my husband and 1 1/2 yr old Yorkie. Our Yorkie loves other dogs and loves to play. We do not have a fenced in yard, however we have a beautiful neighborhood to walk in set far back from any main roads. I'm experienced with premium nutrition and happy to accommodate complex feeding and supplement schedules. Whether your pet is on a traditional diet, human-grade fresh food, or a precise freeze-dried raw regimen, I understand the importance of exact measurements and strict food safety handling.
“Nicholas took excellent care of our dog, Max. He had the best time on his walk, and he was all smiles and wags when we got home. We highly recommend, Nicholas!”


About: Hi! My name is Regan and ’ve been caring for dogs and cats for years through friends, family, and neighbors. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m very active, so your dog will get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including puppies who need structure and older dogs who need a slower, more patient approach. I pay close attention to routines and any specific instructions to make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also prioritize communication, so you’ll always get updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands!! :)) I work fulltime, but have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I will be available every 4-8 hours during the day for walks, drop-ins, and visits during weekdays. I build my day around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and care based on their routine. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment for every pet in my care. I have a dog at home and am very comfortable managing routines, energy levels, and safe interactions. If needed, I can easily separate or crate dogs to ensure everyone stays comfortable. My dog’s name is Fiji, he is a 40lb bernedoodle and he gets along well with dogs from 8lbs-80, and his bestfriend is a kitty cat named Rumpy! If you need any more information on him and how they may interact together, I would be happy to share that with you :) My apartment complex also has a private dog park and a dog bathing area, so dogs get secure outdoor time, exercise, and the option for cleanup after play. (If your dog is not comfortable at dog parks, there are more private exceptions options we can do). I always supervise interactions and tailor care based on each dog’s personality and needs. For cats, I create a calm, low-stress environment and respect their space while still giving them attention and care at their own pace. I follow all feeding schedules and instructions closely, and I provide regular updates and photos so you always feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I have several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience. My care includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to feel at ease while you’re away, so I always treat every pet as if they were my own, keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable I am currently looking for some furry friends to take care on my daily basis, I am pretty flexible with my schedule so let's talk about how we can create a secure bound for the loved ones Currently I only offer my services in the client's home since I don't have enough space where I am, I will make sure that your pet is as safe and well cared for as if its owner were taking care of it!
“Hillary has been amazing with my Boston Terrier, Titus! She’s been walking him for about a week and absolutely crushes it — she gets him a ton of exercise and usually covers around a mile and a half in just 30 minutes. She’s super reliable, clearly cares about what she does, and Titus always comes back happy and worn out (in the best way). Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Kiara is incredible! She helped us last minute and even when there was a mishap with our key, she was accommodating and resourceful and found a way to make it work! We are beyond grateful for her and her kindness. we will definitely be working with her again!”

“Tammy is AMAZING!!!! My dog Athena, absolutely LOVES her. She sent me multiple pictures everyday. Tammy also changed up Athena’s walk each time to keep her interested. One night Athena got sick and Tammy immediately jumped into action as well as calling me. That night, it really felt like she truly cared about her and wanted to help however she could. It made my trip a lot easier, knowing that Athena was in good hands. I am incredibly grateful to Tammy for everything she did and I look forward to using her again in the future.”

About: I got my first cat when I was 5 and as I grew up we adopted more cats, and rescued a dog. My last few roommates have had dogs (a husky, lab mix, and mutt) that I’ve helped take care of as well. I worked for a local veterinary company for two years so am familiar with some general practices and urgent cares in the area as well. I am currently in grad school for social work! My schedule varies day to day, I have classes on Saturday mornings and an internship 2 days/week. During the school year, I teach part-time for a nonprofit. In the summer I primarily do rover for income, so I have more availability during these months! I live in a neighborhood with a dog park and sidewalks that are great for walks! Happy to walk 30+ mins or more depending on what your pup is used to!

“Kessel loves being walked by Katie! She is very professional, courteous, and thorough when it comes to watching my pup (she even offered to go make sure he was okay during a storm!). She also sent great pictures of Kessel during his walk. Would recommend and will be using her in the future!”

“Apollo loved Isaac and he did such a great job with him. Isaac made sure not to keep him outside for too long in the Florida heat, but if the walks were short would make sure to play with him inside. He also went above and beyond by making sure Apollo had his cone on and would check his stitches as they were healing. Couldn't have gone any better!”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and always try to make visits fun, safe, and stress-free. I’m very dependable, detail-oriented, and comfortable following feeding schedules, potty routines, medications, and any special instructions. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I recently moved to St. Petersburg in April and am currently in the process of finding a job, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to dedicate a lot of time to pet care and adjust my availability as needed to provide reliable visits throughout the day and week. I provide care in clients’ homes through drop-in visits and dog walking only. During drop-ins, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks, and receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I always follow any specific instructions closely so pets can stay on their normal routine and feel comfortable while their owners are away. For walks, I focus on safe, enjoyable exercise that matches each dog’s energy level. I like to let dogs take their time outside and really enjoy their walk—sniffing and exploring their surroundings because I’ve learned that sniffing is basically their way of “reading the newspaper,” and I think it’s important to let them engage with their environment. I always keep them safe on leash while making sure they get a fun, relaxed, and enriching walk.

“Kimi was such a huge help on such short notice! My dog is very shy at first but she was very patient with him to ensure he warmed up to her. You can tell she has great love for dogs and truly cares! Definitely recommend.”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and have been entrusted with many friend’s dogs over the years. I have cared for all types of dogs from puppies to elderly dogs. As long as you have a list of how to care for them, I’ll follow all your guidelines! I’m currently in-between jobs and looking to dogsit full-time while I look for my next job. I’ve got plenty of time at home to care for your dog! I live on the first floor of an apartment complex with an outdoor balcony. I can walk your dog as often as needed. They are allowed on the couch!
About: Growing up we had two Husky’s so I grew used to all the shedding and puppy talk then later into my teenage years we got two pit bull/lab mixed pups that were just so full of energy I loved going on runs or walks with them. Throughout college my roommate was a pet trainer at Petsmart so I had alot of time around her and the pups she’d train. I love dogs and would one day like to have one of my own, but I enjoy sitting in the meantime! I live 5 minutes from my job, where I work M-TH, 8-4 and coming home throughout my work day is not an issue at all. There’s a beautiful lake on my work property, where I can take and walk pups throughout the day. I live alone in a one bedroom apartment in a very dog friendly complex. There are no other animals in my apartment and no children, I have a whole setup for pups including a bed, water bowls and toys.
About: I am an animal science student with a concentration in animal behavior and wellbeing. In the agricultural community, I raised and showed an award winning rabbit. Last semester, I was an animal care intern at Columbian Park Zoo. I have nearly a decade experience working in pet care. In addition, my family fosters animals. I am seeking employment in pet care to fill my spare time with a furry companion. I have a flexible schedule in the morning and evening during the week. I am available Thursday-Sunday for weekend stays. When I was in third grade, my family opened our home to foster animals. Throughout the last 11 years, we have cared for animals with parvo, double ear infections, malnourishment, etc. The foster organization trusts us to nourish these animals back to health and prepare them for their forever homes. When I visit client homes, I spend quality time with animals providing them with enrichment. I pride myself on reliability, my clients trust and depend on me to care for their beloved pets. In addition to my experiences, my coursework focuses on animal behavior and wellbeing which helps enhance my services.
About: I am a long-term dog owner and have trained 3 dogs starting at a young age! I have been dog sitting for around 10 years for dogs of all ages- from 10 weeks old to 15 years! I am comfortable giving medications and picking up any accidents! I am a medical student who studies at home so open to spending most of the day with your pet! I enjoy spending time outside so happy to go on as many walks as needed! I can align my schedule with your needs:) I am not able to care for your pet at my home. I live in an apartment that would not be great for having pets over!
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels through a background in veterinary medicine and personal care for my own dog, as well as helping friends with pet sitting, walks, and drop-ins when needed. I’m very comfortable following detailed routines, including feeding schedules, and medication instructions. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Because I work from home full-time, I’m able to provide consistent attention throughout the day, especially for mid-day walks and check-ins. I’m also very reliable with communication and happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make sure your pet feels relaxed and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I work from home full time so my daily and weekly schedule is very flexible. I am also available on weekends. I can be available in the mornings from 7 to 9. I can be available mid day from 11 to 2. I can be available in the evening from 5 to 7. I am not currently offering pets to stay at my residence at this time. I am only offering services at the clients residence. This may change in the future if needed.
Gandy dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lia is amazing!! She was super flexible and able to help me out with a very short notice request. It’s hard finding good, reliable, trustworthy help and after chatting with Lia, my mind was instantly at ease knowing I was leaving the care of my sweet pup in her hands—highly recommend!

Lauren is awesome! She took such great care of my dog on her walks. My dog warmed up to Lauren so quickly. I was nervous that she wouldn’t want to walk with someone she didn’t know but she could tell Lauren was great with animals and would take the best care of her.

Samantha was great with my little girl, Nina. Nina can be very shy with new people and she warmed up to Samantha immediately. All my walking requests have been short notice and Samantha has gone above and beyond to accommodate my schedule. She is a fabulous choice to care for your fur babies!

Tammy is AMAZING!!!! My dog Athena, absolutely LOVES her. She sent me multiple pictures everyday. Tammy also changed up Athena’s walk each time to keep her interested. One night Athena got sick and Tammy immediately jumped into action as well as calling me. That night, it really felt like she truly cared about her and wanted to help however she could. It made my trip a lot easier, knowing that Athena was in good hands. I am incredibly grateful to Tammy for everything she did and I look forward to using her again in the future.
