“Tyler was so kind and great with communicating to me about each visit! He always texted me before he arrived to walk my dog. My dog loved him and Tyler sent me the best pictures too! He left me notes so that you knew what all had happened during the visit! I would recommend him to anyone!”



“She’s a phenomenal and very trustworthy dog walker. I just moved to the area and was nervous to find someone that could check on Letty multiple times a week, and sometimes last last minute. Ruth has been amazing and has been very trustworthy. She always sends me pics from their walk. Letty also loves her and is super excited to see her everyday!”


“Briana is very responsible and accommodating. She responded quickly and was willing to work with me and my dogs. One of my dogs is very nervous around strangers but she’s been super patient with him and I could tell he’s warming up to her. I would definitely recommend Briana.”


About: Here is $20 off your first booking!!! KYLIU82403 I have two dogs of my own and am looking forward to taking care of your best friend!! I have a fully fenced in yard with a dog pool and what feels like a million toys! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and really enjoy taking care of them. I will keep in contact with daily pictures and good communication. I am on a set schedule for work but also work 10 minutes from home and can go home if needed.

“Ashley was awesome. She was very clear with her availability and very punctual for the scheduled walks while we were away. She's full of energy and that's what my lab needed. We will be definitely using her services again in the near future. I like that we received pictures and also showed the trail, length and time of the walks through the app. We highly recommend Ashley!”


About: I have always been an animal lover, and have been watching pets for family and friends for about 5 years. I am available for both in and out of home services, and I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I currently have one cat, but when I pet sit, it's generally pups! I'm familiar and comfortable with any size and breed, as well as accommodating to any special dietary or medication needs. I am currently a commuter student at the University of South Florida, so my schedule is very open! I have full availability Friday-Sunday, have class from 3:30 pm-6:15 pm Monday/Wednesday, and have class from 2:00 pm-4:45 pm Tuesday/Thursday. Maintaining open and frequent communication with pet parents is top priority for me! If a client desires frequent updates or photos of their fur babies I will be more than happy to provide them. I also follow feeding and medication regimens very strictly. Additionally, pets will get outside time as much as possible, and cats will get their litterboxes cleaned routinely. Of course, everybody will also get lots of love, pets and belly rubs! In terms of overnight stays, I do everything in my power to leave the home exactly as it was when I arrived. I also have no problem doing some light cleaning if requested!

About: I've breed chihuahuas an I've also rescued newborn kittens an bottle fed them. Also any animal that I find or see I feed an try to care for them. Pet care is my life an I take care of my furbabies all day. I love to rescue or help any animal in need. ❤️ I treat them like my babies or furry children. I will feed an walk or entertain any animals purposes. Safe an loved at all times.

About: I’m patient and attentive when it comes to animals and their individual needs. I’m physically capable of engaging in any animal-related activities, and I stay observant to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also adapt easily to each animal’s personality and preferences. As a college student without a current job, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time throughout the day and week to care for pets. This fits well into my routine and gives me the opportunity to focus fully on their needs. I provide a safe, loving environment, follow routines closely, offer regular potty breaks, playtime, and ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

About: I completed a four year veterinary program in high school on top of being a lifetime animal lover who tries to gain as much general animal information as possible. With this I have basic skills and knowledge on how to handle dogs professionally. At college, I am my dog’s full time caretaker as well as taking care of three dogs total at home. I love dogs of all sizes and ages! I plan on working part time for the summer, but whenever I am not working I am available! My weekly schedule cannot be known until my job posts when I work but I will be able to communicate specifics. I will comply to and rules and regulations that the owners put in place for their animals. I cannot work out of my own home but am more than willing to pet sit or do drop in at the owners home, where their dog will more likely be at home.

“Rachelle was so responsive and made me feel so comfortable! It is my first time ever using Rover & I’m glad that she was available. Definitely will be using her services again! Highly recommend!”


“Cassidy was very accommodating, flexible and kind with my fur babies. It was their first time left alone all day in a very long time and my first time using the app and Cassidy was patient with my new navigation of this process and tender hearted to my lonely doggie. Warmed my heart that she sat with my girl and encouraged her to eat her meal even though she was missing her momma. I even needed to add an extra walk when my day went unexpectedly late, and this was no issue.”


About: I have loved and cared for my own pets plus those of friends and neighbors. It's been one one of the most rewarding things that anyone can do. I am very happy just being home with my pets. We are not worthy of their love. I welcome the chance to help you care for your fur baby. I am a personal trainer so I have the flexibility to set my own schedule. My weekends are for the most part open, especially during the summer. My pets are my babies. I have cameras strategically placed to help me keep and eye on them at all times. I make sure to take a head count and take lots of cuddle breaks.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for dogs has always come naturally to me. I began my journey as a pet lover with my first dog, Hanna, who was by my side for 14 wonderful years and taught me the true meaning of loyalty and unconditional love. Later, Kira came into our lives unexpectedly, bringing even more joy and companionship to my family. Over the years, I have also taken care of the dogs of friends and family, gaining valuable experience with different breeds, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s providing daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply giving them comfort and affection, I take pride in offering the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own pets. I believe that every dog deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved, and my lifelong connection with animals allows me to create a warm, trustworthy environment for any pup in my care I am currently a student and work part-time, which allows me to have flexible hours. At the moment, I am available from Wednesday to Friday and on some Saturdays When caring for dogs, I make sure they have plenty of exercise, fresh water, and a clean, safe space. I pay close attention to their routines and adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. I believe in giving them affection and gentle care so they feel happy, comfortable, and Loved


About: I have had animals in my house all my life and have always loved taking care of them! I grew up with cats and when we finally got our first dog we were inseparable. I went off to college and got my own animals to take care of for a couple years but I recently moved across the country with my husband and we had to leave our little friends behind with our families. My late childhood dog had gotten older as I was going off to college and lost her hearing and sight, so I'm well prepared to take care of animals that need a little extra attention! I'm hoping to help people in the area out with their little family members! I love to walk dogs, play with cats, and just hangout with all types of animals. Im currently working from home and doing some online schooling. This allows me to be super flexibly for a job with Rover. I can tend to your pets needs 24/7. Because of my situation, your pet will almost never be left alone and will be well taken care of and loved! I do not have any pets of my own currently and will only be taking one family at a time. I have a huge yard outside my apartment unit and a fenced in dog park that is not too far of a walk away as well!

About: Growing up we always had pets and learned how to take care of them. Over the years I have had two ferrets and two large dogs (not at the same time!) Recently I have been doing more pet and house sitting and volunteering for the SPCA. For the SPCA I have walked dogs of all breeds and sizes and helped with adoption and fundraising events. My schedule is very flexible right now. I am talking online classes and can adjust my schedule as needed. That frees me up for walking, drop in visits or sitting. When house sitting, I respect your home and your wishes as a guest. Share with me all the details about how to best care for your furry family members so that I can make the time you are away the most comfortable for them. Currently I am not available for day care or boarding.

About: I have owned dogs since was 9/10 years-old, and enjoy playing with dogs and love keeping them occupied espically puppies. For puppies, I like to help potty-train them by offering treats to understand that "outside is where we use the bathroom not inside". I also pay really close attention to due to possible getting into things. I watch out for things that could possibly hurt your dog. As a dog owener myself I will treat your dog as if it was my own dog at home, giving all the attention and play time there hearts desire. I’m currently working part time so I am available during select times. I also know what it is like to need a caregiver for your pets while you are away on a business trip or just a quick get away from reality. I live in an apartment complex where everyone keeps to themselves but as for any home I would treat it as if it were my home and how I would want to make sure things are in the right place

I can't imagine how bad his infection would have got if she had not been so attentive. She even emptied and washed his litter box. Next time I need a pet sitter Mickey will be the first person I call.”
