“Kierra Was so kind to the dogs, very attentive and followed every direction we gave her to the fullest extent. Highly recommend, was able to help us out super last minute. We could’ve have asked for a better dog sitter.”
“Isaac is fantastic! We were first time Rover users, and I tend to be a worrier, but after the meet and greet my worries went away. He took great care of our girl, Callie, and provides such detailed notes. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Very happy I came across Constance’s profile as I needed a last minute walker without a meet and great, her reviews and repeat customers helped me feel comfortable about having her care for my dog and cat and she did a great job! Good communication and lots of photos, I will definitely have her back. Thank you again Constance :)”
“Excellent, trustworthy, reliable, and absolutely knowledgeable about dogs!!! I feel super safe with my pups in his care!!! I absolutely recommend!! 14/10 would recommend!”
“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!”
About: I have 8 years of personal and professional experience working with dogs and cats. I enjoy working with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels. I’m currently working from home, so I have great flexibility when it comes to taking care of your pet. Whether your pet needs morning, afternoon, or evening walks or drop-ins, I’m your go-to sitter. I’m very attentive to all pets’ behaviors, ensuring they feel as comfortable as possible even when their family is away. I also review each pet’s unique needs before any visit to make sure they get the specialized care they deserve.
About: I grew up on a small farm with chickens, goats and dogs. I've taken care of my familys animals and sat for neighbors. I had a job feeding and caring for horses and was a trail guide for a little while. I drive for Uber so I pretty much make my own schedule. I'm pretty easy going. I'm pretty used to taking gigs as they come so last minute stuff isn't too big of a deal. Very flexible. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s routine including feeding, walks, medication, and playtime. I always make sure to communicate clearly with pet parents and respect their preferences. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are my priorities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and attention to detail.
About: Hi fur moms and dads! I'm Marinella and after 15 years of having two energetic terriers on my hands, I find myself with an empty dog nest and plenty of time to care for your kiddos. I love actually spending time with animals when I watch them and after having senior pets, I take instructions pretty seriously. Whether it's an overnight you need or just a walk when you get delayed during your day, I'm your girl. I do have a kitty at home so for boarding, your pups would have to be very friendly with cats. Right now, I’m unemployed so I am able to care for your pets as long as I’m in the area. I wake up very early most days: 6 am at the latest. I’m not a big sleeper so if your pet needs attention at 2 am, I’m okay with that! In my home, the pets would have to be comfortable with a condo. I have a screened patio and I live on the first floor. There’s plenty of grass and open space for walking in the complex. At your place it’s totally your call how you want me to handle your pet.
“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!”
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: Hi! I’m Michelle, a caring and reliable pet sitter based in St. Petersburg. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pet like part of my family. I offer drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and cat care, making sure your furry friends get attention, play, and love while you’re away. I always send photo updates so you can relax, knowing your pets are happy and safe. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I work remotely Monday to Thursday. I can make dog walks happen or have your dog come stay with me for more love and attention at my apartment! I have a 2 bedroom apartment with one cat and a nice apartment complex to walk dogs near north gandy beach. I will care for your pet like they’re my own with lots of love and attention to your pet’s needs.
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!
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.
“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 have had dogs all my life, thankfully. Ever since I was born, I either had dogs of my own or have had them closely in my life. From the time I was born until I went to college, our family always had dogs, and my mother was a member of the National Springer Spaniel Rescue League. She would drive anywhere in the country to pick up and rescue abused dogs when needed, and she taught me from a young age how to care for, nurture, heal, and raise pups. After moving to Florida years ago, I have always had dogs around me, as some of my closest friends have the best pups. I make sure they always get extra love on the daily, and a birthday cake every year! I have lived with them each at different times, and have always loved the experience. I travel at times for work, so I have held off on getting my own until I know I can provide the best environment and schedule for them :) I request dog bars locally with my friend's dogs and we always have such an incredible time. Puppies, older dogs, those with trauma or anxiety - I know them all very well and easily cater to each dog's specific needs. As long as we have open communication, I can be flexible with my schedule while caring for your pups. Dogs are not just pets; they are a part of and an extension of your family! So in my eyes, they require just as much thought and care as a family member. Any special needs, requests, etc, we can talk through and make sure every detail is taken care of! Each dog has a unique personality, much like we do. Trust is established slowly upon meeting them for the first time, and on their time - that means that whether they are quick to warm up and play, or just need a minute, I am well-versed in that and here for them in its entirety. I am very comfortable with taking care of dogs in their home environments. Let me know if they have favorite spots, walking routes, toys, treats, etc, and I will make sure each visit is personalized :)
About: I've had all kinds of pets growing up- fish, cats, and dogs. I understand how important companions are to everyone. They're part of our families. I've helped take care of my family's pets as well as my friends' pets since I was in elementary school. I will treat your pets as though they're my own, with the same love and affection you'd give them. I work part-time and get my schedule up to 2 weeks in advance, meaning it's easy for me to make time for your pets! Taking care of a pet helps me better create a schedule for myself, so watching your pet helps me just as much as it helps them. I'd like to treat your pets with the same love and respect that you have for them. I will walk, feed, play, or bathe them as much as you'd like me to. My pets are allowed on the furniture so conversations about the boundaries your pet can have is important to me.
“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!”
About: I live in the Tampa Bay Area and would love to help you out with your animals! I have had pets of my own my entire life and have been professionally walking and sitting dogs for about 5 years now. I am a pediatric registered nurse so I will treat your pets with love and care. I am capable of helping you out with anything you need whether that be walks, a pet sitter, or another task you might think of. I have dealt with certain medicine and sick pets as well so if that is the case, I'm your girl! I am very flexible and understandable. If you have specific requests, I will happily accommodate to provide the care you're wanting for your pet. I have always loved animals as well as helping other people, Rover allows me to do just that. Can't wait to meet your pet! I am a pediatric nurse so other than the days I work I am available! I also keep my calendar updated that way clients can see when I am available. I put pet safety first and I will also be respectful of your home. I make sure to keep great communication between the owners and myself through out my service.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gandy
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.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gandy. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Gandy.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gandy. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
