Pet Sitting Gandy-Sun Bay South

About: I have been dog sitting since I was about for about 7 years for neighbors and friends. I have also walked my elderly neighbor's dog for them when they were unable to. I am currently working full time but I love to go on long walks in my spare time! I enjoy being outside and meeting new fur babies. Depending on how you request, I could meet you at your front door or come into your home to retrieve your fur baby to take them on a walk. I do understand that living in Florida where is mostly hot and humid and some dogs cannot handle the heat or become exhausted easily. However long you request to have your dog walked I will bring a water bowl for your pet to stay hydrated. :) I am currently working full time but I am trying to open up my schedule more by the end of summer. But I am currently available on the weekends and some days during the week. I can be flexible to just message me and I will let you know! Walking your dog around your neighborhood where your fur baby is familiar is important to me! I will make sure your fur baby has plenty of water and time to enjoy themselves on our walk. For drop ins I will sit with your baby as long as is needed. Making sure they get cuddles, stimulation, meds, and just some human time.

I love all pets and I’m always careful to make sure to follow directions, ask questions if needed, and give your pet the best care needed!

I always try to make sure any pets in my care are always given a healthy and safe environment while enjoying some exercise and of course, lots of love and treats!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and have two dogs of my own that I absolutely adore. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets, so I joined Rover to help other pet owners feel at ease while they’re away. I’m reliable, caring, and happy to make sure your pup gets lots of attention, walks, and love! I am currently available full time on the weekends (Friday to Sunday). During the week I am available in the mornings and afternoons (Monday to Thursday). I understand how important safety and trust are—not only when it comes to your pets, but your home as well. As a fellow Rover user, I know how much peace of mind matters, and I'll always treat both with respect.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family and deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pet as if they were my own. Because I work from home, I have the flexibility to provide your pet with plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to stick to your pet's normal routine, whether that means regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods, and I'll be there to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. My flexible schedule also allows me to accommodate last-minute bookings and provide dependable care when you need it most. I believe in keeping pet parents updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet by providing reliable, loving care in a safe environment.

About: I have a cat at home. I grew up raising an old lab and a young energetic cockapoo. My sisters also had 3 dogs (golden retriever, yorkie, english spaniel), 5 cats, and 8 chickens that I pet sat frequently. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds and ages and love caring for all of them 🫶 I am in Tampa on a clinical rotation for part of my Doctorate or Physical Therapy program. I had to leave my cat at home while i’m here so i miss my baby! I love cats and small dogs and would love to help take care of yours while i’m missing mine! I am a vegetarian and could never imagine hurting an animal much less a pet. I care for all pets like they are apart of my own family.

About: I rescued my first dog off the side of the street when I was In college! I’ll love your pet like I love My own! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was A teenager and have trained several dogs in both Dallas and NJ - basic commands and basic social etiquette. I work in higher education so I’m free all summer long to give your pet the best care possible! My availability is open until mid august and then I only work till noon Mondays through Thursdays so I’m very much at home and hanging with the pups! I have A 6 year old black lab in house- so your pup will have someone to play with (and a crate full of bark box toys!) your dog will have a chance to utilize the turf dog park in my community, go on 1.5 mile walks, and have many potty breaks as I’m home all day and night! Marco is easy going and likes all dogs - he even shares the bed! I have A fenced in turf yard with space for the animals to relax. I live In a townhome. Please note- I live in a community with breed restrictions therefore, I am Unable to take in certain dogs for boarding (I love Them all, but have to follow the rules!)

“Spencer was the first dog sitter I used on Rover. He provided excellent service, both caring for Athena and communicating very well. I highly recommend his services!”
