About: I'm a stay-at-home mom with a big love for animals and enjoy caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes! I love getting to know each dog's unique personality and strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and at home while you're away. I'm home most of the day so I can tend to your pup however they need. I will prioritize their routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I will be sure to care for your pet as if they're my own! We live in a safe, calm and quiet area with a lot of space for walks and a fenced doggy park for run and play.
About: As a devoted pet owner to my beloved Julie,I have gained invaluable experience in providing exceptional care and nurturing for animals. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the responsibilities and joys that come with being a pet parent. I’m available to take care of your pet in my home Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 7 PM, you need overnight stays: I offer overnight stays for pets that require 24. At my home, the safety and well-being of your furry friends are my top priorities. I understand that leaving your pets in someone else's care requires trust and assurance, which is why I have taken several measures to create a secure and comfortable environment. My home is equipped with a fully fenced backyard, providing a safe and controlled space for supervised playtime and exercise. This ensures that your pets can enjoy the outdoors while remaining within a secure boundary. To further enhance safety, I have installed cameras throughout my home, including the backyard. These cameras allow me to monitor your pets' activities and ensure their well-being at all times. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pets are under constant supervision, even when I'm not physically present in the same room.

“Buddy loved it at Trevor‘s house more than any other sitter he’s been with since we’ve been in Tampa. I think Trevor is his favorite so I will definitely be bringing him back. He took excellent care of buddy.”
“Very pleased with the accommodations!! Inside area is fabulous for pups to hang during warm days. Loved that someone was physically with him all day to monitor the pups while they played!! Thank you very much! We have a tired little pooch tonight!!”
“Joann is AMAZING!!! I am so so very happy I left my Mia with her. As a first time mom of a fur-baby, I’m still learning. Joann has been great with easing my concerns and providing me suggestions for Mia. We had a great “meet and greet” where I got to meet her, her mom and her little beagle. The family is lovely and welcoming! Joann answered all my questions, and she was so understanding when I had to cancel due to inclement weather. When I rescheduled and she watched my little Mia, she communicated with me and kept me informed. She sent me multiple pics during the stay. I felt so comfortable leaving my Mia with her. I absolutely will continue to book with Joann. In fact I’ve already scheduled an over night stay with her. I recommend Joann all the way!! (Thank you Joann- from Mia and Tasha 😊)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Greater Carrollwood
We had a great experience with Joy’ stay in Patricia’s house. From the moment we arrived, the check-in process was smooth and thoughtful, and it was clear that the environment was well set up for the dogs’ comfort and safety. She was very communicative throughout the day and sent us updates, photos, and videos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind as first-time daycare users. We could see that Joy was being well cared for and enjoying her time with the other dogs. We really appreciated the care, professionalism, and communication. We would definitely trust her with Joy again and would not hesitate to book with her in the future.
What an awesome experience I have had with Justine! She was super sweet and took both of my girls together without an issue. She provided me with frequent updates and was very accommodating when we were late for pickup. I am happy to have found her and will definitely make her my official dog sitter from now on!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Greater Carrollwood commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,773 sitters in Greater Carrollwood, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
