“Ryan was an absolute awesome sitter for our little Luna. He was very accommodating and came a little early per our request to bond with Luna and give her time to feel comfortable around him. She seemed very comfortable and happy and wanting to play. Ryan was very respectful and helped also keep things tidy , bringing in our packages and mail. We definitely will book with Ryan again for our next trip.”
About: As a cat parent, I know the struggle that parting on trips brings. I have found they do best at home where they are most comfortable with a trusted caretaker. I am in college but rather flexible so I can help you on a case by case basis. My schedule changes due to the nature of classes but if you reach out I can almost certainly help! I offer walks, drop bys and overnights for clients in which I care for your animal and leave with no trace evidence of me ever having been there. Besides the happy animal!
“Allison, did an excellent job! She is proactive and immediately stepped in and helped us on short notice. She was reliable and excellent with our 3 dogs and even cleaned the house before we came home. Our dogs were well taken care of!”
“Katherine was absolutely amazing and made our vacation a lot more relaxing knowing our fur baby was well taken care of. Would highly recommend her and would love to use her services again.”
“She did a great job keeping me updated on my dogs. She responds quick help ease the stress of leaving my dogs . my 2 frenchies seem to enjoyed their time with her. Thanks again.”
“My Ruby girl had an excellent time with Rhonda, getting spoiled with walks and extra love over Christmas. Rhoda went above and beyond the call of duty and even took care of some household stuff. She communicated with me often and sent lots of pictures. I had such peace of mind knowing that Rhoda was caring for Ruby so well. I cannot say enough good about her!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a little girl. They have always been part of my life, and I never had any complaints. I’ve had cats, dogs, lizards, turtles, etc! everyone around me knows my love for animals and asks me questions about their own pets if they don’t know something. My dream is to have a huge farm filled with a bunch of animals. Animals will always be part of who i am :) I currently have a full time job from Tues-Sat so I am available mornings those days, Sunday and Monday all day to care for your babies :) I always treat peoples pets as if they were my own, giving them the care they need if it’s food, cuddles, or walks! whatever the precious pet needs!
“Christian is fantastic. He stayed with our two dogs for the first time and right away, made me feel at ease. He is quick to respond, very cooperative, polite and it’s evident he really loves animals. I would recommend Christian to anyone in need and will definitely ask him to return!”
“Could not have asked for more from Patrick! He was extremely easy to work with and did a fantastic job watching my dog Koda for 8 nights. He sent frequent updates with pictures, videos and even went above and beyond to give Koda a bath. He was very responsive and made me feel so at ease. I will definitely book with him again!”
About: Pet Care Experience I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover since I was a child, giving me a lifelong passion for caring for pets. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and safe. What Sets Me Apart What makes me different is my genuine love and dedication to every pet I care for. I treat each animal like family, paying close attention to their unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s providing extra comfort to senior dogs or ensuring medications are given properly, I focus on dependable, compassionate care you can trust. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a mom to a 2-month-old and a part-time student studying to become a medical assistant, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around both my responsibilities and the pets I care for. I’m already used to maintaining a consistent routine, which helps me stay organized and dependable for feedings, walks, playtime, and medication schedules. Caring for pets blends seamlessly into my week, and I make sure each pet gets the attention, love, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets in your own home by keeping their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while making sure your home is respected and kept clean. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and can administer medications when needed, always making sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I stay attentive to any changes in behavior or health and keep you updated for peace of mind while you’re away.
“I will definately be requesting Victoria in the future. She always kept us informed about our pups while we were away and very responsive with all of our questions. I couldn't have asked for a better fit for our family!”
“Michael took amazing care of my pups. He even put my meals that delivered away and took my garbage out. I recently moved to FL from TX and was anxious finding a new sitter. I highly recommend Michael and will be using him moving forward for my furbabies”
“Layla was awesome, probably one of the best sitters we've had. You could tell Diesel had so much fun with her stay, with all the pictures and videos she updated us with. Would highly recommend and do it again!”
“Rylie was wonderful taking care of our home and babies while we were away getting married. She handled everything great and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy because we knew she had everything handled at home. Would highly recommend working with her for house sitting or drop in visits.”
“Mark was an amazing dog sitter! He treated my dogs like his own, so I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing he was there with them. He kept me updated while I was away with pictures and videos. Mark even offered to cut my dog’s nails for me when I mentioned one dog made it difficult to do. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!”
“Jill was fantastic! My dogs were very relaxed around her, so that gave me peace of mind. She kept me updated every day and I could see the kids were having a good time. Thank you, Jill!”
Greater Carrollwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mark took great care of our senior dog, Milo, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. He communicated regularly, kept us updated, and followed all of our instructions carefully. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. We felt comfortable knowing Milo was in good hands. We would definitely book with Mark again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.
If we could give Madison 6 out of 5 stars, we absolutely would! She takes such amazing care of our girls, and it’s obvious from how excited and comfortable they are with her every time. This was also the first time we’ve ever had someone stay overnight with them, and Madison was an absolute rockstar. Knowing Khione and Mimsy were so well cared for gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter, and we honestly wouldn’t choose anyone else. We can’t recommend Madison highly enough!
I can’t even begin to explain how amazing Rico was during our 2 weeks away from our beloved pup. I’ve read reviews saying “my dog might like Rico more than me” and I agree😂 Our dog definitely built a strong bond with Rico. He would send updates, report cards, and pics/videos DAILY! He didn’t just dog sit but he spent time training, nurturing and caring for our boy. He was very thorough and even asked questions that I didn’t think of! Very trustworthy, reliable and professional. 100/10 recommend (but beware your dog may not want you to come back😂) !! Signing up for training sessions ASAP. He’s awesome!
Casey was absolutely amazing with my dogs, Hank and Lola, while I was out of town for Thanksgiving. He was reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what he does. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in such great hands. He followed all care instructions perfectly, kept me updated, and went above and beyond to make sure Hank and Lola were happy and comfortable. I came home to two very content pups, which says it all. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Casey again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Trace gave Pretty Kitty all the love & attention she craves. I was very pleased with her attention to specific instructions: meds & routines. I received daily photos of PK showing how content she was. Trace also gave thoughtful care to my home. I will definitely like to use Trace again!🐾
Laura was fantastic. She was easy to communicate with and took really great care of Yogi. He has separation anxiety but when I got home, Yogi was calm, happy, and had been well cared for. The house looked exactly how I left it, and Yogi was relaxed and clearly had a great time. It’s not easy to find someone you can trust with both your home and your dog, but Laura earned that trust. She’s responsible, kind, attentive, accommodating, and trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking her again.
Could not have asked for more from Patrick! He was extremely easy to work with and did a fantastic job watching my dog Koda for 8 nights. He sent frequent updates with pictures, videos and even went above and beyond to give Koda a bath. He was very responsive and made me feel so at ease. I will definitely book with him again!
Jenna was a gem. She did a fabulous job for our dog Ernie and our cat Schmotz. She was able to win the cat over to be able to give his medication’s intradermal on his ears. No one but me has been able to do that. She gave lots of belly rubs, and lots of scratches and for pets that never had a pet sitter before to stay in the house. They were in love with her. The house was clean like we had never left. The animals were happy to see us, but I know that they were very happy with Jenna. She sent pictures and videos and I could tell how happy everybody was. I would highly recommend Jenna to sit for your fur babies. I plan on using her again.
