“Leticia was so wonderful yet again! We so appreciate having her come and look after our little pup. She always takes some of the best pictures and gives him so much love!”
“Shayla was amazing with my fur-baby! She followed instructions as directed, communicated daily, provided prompt responses, and arrived on-time for scheduled check-ins and walks. For example, my dog is given multi-vitamins twice daily and Shayla followed those instructions. She was flexible with her schedule: as I needed to add check-in services and accommodated my last minute requests. She showed some much love and patience towards my fur-baby during my extended trip with lots of hugs, belly rubs and play, which added the comfort my fur-baby needed. I would highly recommend Shayla to anyone who is seeking someone who is truly passionate about caring for your pet, has excellent communication skills, and is extremely reliable. We look forward to booking Shayla again!!”
“We CANNOT say enough good things about Maya!! Maya took great care of our pups + did me a huge favor and took out dinner from our freezer when I had forgot! 😂 We absolutely LOVE how many extra pictures she sends, and how she plays fetch with both our pups every time she comes over!! We will be recommending Maya to our friends & will be/already have booked her again!”
“Jordan was amazing with Fritz! She left detailed reports and sent great pictures of Fritz! We are so glad we chose her to care for Fritz and would definitely book her again in the near future 😊”
About: I’ve lived and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, all being from shelters. As a vegan I believe in animal rights and welfare and will always treat your animals the same way I’d treat a human. I am starting the summer semester at USF but I think it’s important to stay active and I think this is a great way to. I’ve recently moved from Texas and I’m missing my babies so a little quality time with some puppies or cats would be great Scheduled feeding and potty breaks are welcome and playtime is always guaranteed. I always make sure that my pets have enough water so I will do the same for yours.
“Matthew was fantastic! He stopped by and took care of our dogs while we were were out of town for a day. He let them out, fed them, and made sure they were happy. He sent great photos and kept us updated the whole time. Super reliable and easy to work with, we’d recommend!”
“Victoria was absolutely wonderful. I was so happy with the care she provided and I completely trust her with my dogs. From the very beginning she was professional, kind, and clearly experienced with pets. My dogs adore Victoria. They were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. She followed all of our instructions carefully, kept them on their usual routine, and sent regular photo. That gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly loves dogs. I will definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Victoria!”
“Melissa was awesome! We had to reschedule on short when things changed and she was so flexible and great. Reliable and our pooches appreciated her drop in! Certainly will schedule more wi the Melissa and would recommend her as well.”
About: I have always been around dogs since I can remember. My mom got me my first dog when I was 8 years old and from there I have been in love with dogs. I’m currently working from home which gives me time to dedicate time spend with your fur baby and play with. My schedule most of the times is pretty flexible. I have a french bulldog that is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. He loves to play ball and spend time running around. I do have a dog park near my apt which is most of the times empty.
“Nakisha took very good care of my cats. She communicated with me numerous times. She also sent pictures so I knew they were doing well. She also allowed them time to sit out on the back porch. Very profesdional”
About: I believe dogs are family and should be treated as such! I would love to spoil your furry friend! I’m punctual and detailed when it comes to any job. I work a full-time job. I am available in the evenings/nights and weekends. I could even make some early mornings work. If times are flexible, please let me know! I take care of pets by knowing I’m in their environment first. I make sure they are comfortable before overstepping my welcome. Walking, feeding and spoiling them with lots of love are ways I personally take care of my dog.
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals in a veterinary class I attended for a couple years. I enjoy being there for their needs. I work part time so I have days where I can gladly be with them and even after work I’d love to be with them too. I would have the clients pet stay in areas where the owner wants and need for it to be. I’ll keep them in the right area. Play and care for them while cleaning anything they do.
“Gosh I missed my puppies; even though I watched them on the camera almost every night while we were gone. Yvonne did an awesome job taking care of them. She doesn't overexcite them on her first visit, she lets them get to know her. She wears like-minded clothing each visit so that they recognize her and that keeps them from being stressed. She sits on the floor with them, she talks to them, she takes them on walks (if you've included this) she plays outside with them. She seen that I had packages at the door and brought them in. How awesome is that? She has watched bleu and si twice now and they just love her! We owe her a load of thanks!!”
About: We have experience working in dog daycares and have been doing dog care in and outside our home for the past 3 years. We love dogs and pride ourselves on giving them the family experience. We follow all owners rules while they are in our care but they will be treated like our pets, members of our family. We have a large fenced in yard and are experienced keeping active dogs entertained and properly exercised. We currently have 4 rescue dogs. We have a large house, climate controlled dog care building and multi-fenced yard so if your dog doesn't like other dogs, keeping them separated is not a problem. We are almost always available and can be flexible with your schedule and needs. We are able to take last minute requests for any services offered. We have an acre and live in a quiet neighborhood. We love walking dogs, playing fetch and tug a war. Your dogs will get lots of love under my care.
“I can’t be more grateful to Nattalie for her care. She was absolutely amazing in every single way and gave me ease will traveling. My dog was happy and loved her. I will definitely keep using her services A+”
About: Apart from my experience of over 10 years of taking care of dog/cats/etc. My genuine value is in your fur baby. I provide a service where your fur baby is in the safest and most caring hands. I make sure that every visit is a comfortable and fun and safe environment. I can provide references from most, if not all my clients. I am a person of my word and have never had any incidents during a visit. I care for each fur baby as if they were my own. During their stay, I provide 3 if not more walks during the day, cuddles, love, endless playtime, and park visits, so your fur baby doesn’t have time to be sad and miss you their wonderful parents. My services include a more one on one quality time and care. I am very flexible, and can provide 24/7 care. I am able to provide all the care and play for each fur baby. Taking care of fur babies is my part time passion. I do live in an apartment. I have a big space for them to explore and sniff away. I have a couple parks near by that I like to visit and provide tons of play time! I do take visits with other dogs/bookings if both parties have agreed because your trust and their safety comes first.
“Danielle was absolutely amazing! She came to check on my cat Kiki on Christmas day and even brought her couple of toys! Danielle called me and even send me pictures of Kiki when she came to visit to show me everything was ok with her! Kiki loved her and played with her despite the fact that she is very skittish around new people. We will be definitely booking Danielle again!”

Nakisha was amazing! She was always on time and very dependable. She even stopped by before the scheduled dates to meet the dogs, which gave me peace of mind before my trip. I left detailed instructions, and she followed everything perfectly without needing to reach out. If you’re going out of town and want someone reliable so you don’t have to worry, Nakisha is the perfect dog walker. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Once again, Sherri has taken great care of our dog Pico. Even on short notice, she has been very accommodating. With all of my health issues, it is hard to make plans too far out, so her flexibility has been very valuable to us. Pico seems to like Sherri as well. 💜
Kyra did an amazing job caring for my high energy senior, Zelda while I went away for a few days. She sent update pics and videos each drop in visit she did. Would recommend Kyra 10/10! Very sweet and apparent she is a dog lover like me. Just to give some background, I’ve been a professional dog trainer since 2007 and I’m particular about how my dog is cared for and Kyra met my expectations 😊

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gibsonton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Gibsonton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Gibsonton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
