About: I've worked at a pet store for three years and was a manager of said store for one of those years. I've worked in and volunteered at veterinary clinics. I've also volunteered and interned at the Humane Society of Pinellas. I work well with not only cats and dogs but exotic animals, such as reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish, and small rodents. All in all, I'm a huge animal lover! I work part time and I am also a full time student, so Monday - Thursday mornings 7am-11am work best for me. I am able to do feedings, walks, and medications for your pet(s). I'm experienced giving animals their needed medication. I enjoy walks and exercise in the morning, which is how I take care of my parent's dogs. I've also helped to take care of their chickens. I also have exotic animals and I am experienced with working with them professionally as well.

“Brook is absolutely wonderful! She is deeply caring and observant and took the time to absorb the peculiarities about my elder dog, Maya, before spending time with her. Brook picks up on and reports the little things - how active Maya was; whether she was in the mood to sleep or play; how many times she went potty. She also sent pictures and updates and was very responsive. 10 out of 10!!”

About: Hi! I’m Reagan, I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life. Along with life experience, I added 6 years of experience in Veterinary Medicine as a technician caring for a multitude of breeds, personalities, and ages! 🐾 My background has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, body language, and recognizing subtle changes in a pet’s health or demeanor. I have a special appreciation for puppies who are still learning and developing, senior pets who need extra comfort and patience, and animals who require individualized or specialized care. I’m comfortable working with pets who have unique needs, different temperaments, or require a little extra time to feel safe and comfortable. I believe every animal deserves compassionate, attentive care tailored to their individual personality and needs. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication assistance, senior care, or simply some extra love and companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my priority! ❤️🐶🐱 I work mostly full time at a Veterinary Clinic. I am available for weekly drop-ins or walks, or as needed, I am here for you and your pet. My schedule can change week to week and I can update my availability weekly. Mostly, I am available Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sundays. Tuesday- Between 6-7 AM and After 5pm Wednesday- Between 6-7 AM and After 12pm Thursday- All Day Sunday- After 12 pm Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! With 6 years of veterinary experience, I understand the importance of monitoring behavior, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and handling pets safely. During drop-in visits and walks, I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s usual routines, ensure doors and gates are secure, use appropriate leash and harness safety, and keep a close eye on their surroundings. I’ll respect your home, provide patient and attentive care, and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your fur babies are in good hands while you’re away! 🐾

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a teenager and have experience as both a lifelong pet owner and a sitter. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. From small, cuddly pups to high energy Australian breeds who need plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, cuddles, and making sure each dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I would prefer drop ins and “pet sitting” in your house most of the day if needed, but would currently not be comfortable staying overnight. I am an early riser and can be there very early however , or whatever day time routine would be most comfortable for your dog :) I am currently not working more than 10 hours a week with contract work, so my hours and schedule are very flexible. We are also new to Florida, and are looking to buy a house soon, so this will fill up my time with something I love doing while helping earn some extra income. I know how important your fur babies are to you! My husband and I have a little dog and a big fluffy cat and they are basically our children! I would treat them with just as much love and care as my own animals, and I hope I can bring my little dog with me to play when allowed!

About: Hi! I’m 28 years old, I’ve been happily caring for pets for 10+ years, I have some experience as a kennel technician at a veterinary hospital. I am home full time so I am always available. Something you and your fur babies will love about me is how attentive and kind I am. I will care for your babies as if they were my own so you can feel great about leaving them with me and knowing they will have a good time and they themselves will feel comfortable even while you’re away. I do not have any animals myself, however I do have children so your babies must get along with small children. I live in a friendly neighborhood and have a large fenced yard for lots of play time! I’m currently working part time and spend the rest of my time at home, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with and care for your fur babies. I live in a friendly neighborhood and have a big fenced yard for lots of play time! Also happy to go on walks or car rides anytime!

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for animals and a background in veterinary care. I’m comfortable working with dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including pets who are anxious, nervous, or need a little extra patience and reassurance. I’m experienced with walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, basic medication routines, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine and personality so they can feel happy and secure while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give every pet plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. 🐾🤍 Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, so caring for other pets naturally fits into my routine. I’m used to building my day around feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I have three cats and two dogs of my own, so I understand how important consistency and keeping a pet’s normal routine can be. I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual schedule and needs, whether that means a quick potty break, a long walk, medication, or simply some extra love and cuddles while you’re away. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. 🐾🤍 I care for every pet as an individual and always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep their pets’ normal feeding, walking, playtime, and medication schedules as consistent as possible. I’m very experienced with giving medications and comfortable caring for pets with different needs, ages, and personalities. I also treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll keep things clean and secure, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾🤍

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages, not to mention I have experience with reptiles, amphibians, and fish. I’m available at most hours of the day to provide regular walking, feeding, or even playing with your pets. I’m currently enrolled part time in community college, so I’ll have a lot time available to take care of any pets. Any time from 7:00 AM to 10:00PM will work for me. In areas close to me, I can easily check in at least twice a day. I’m also open to staying overnight if there’s a pet that can’t be left alone for long periods.

About: Not only do I have 20+ years of experience with cats and dogs of all sizes (and ages!) but I'm also very comfortable with all types of reptiles, fish, birds and horses! I've been lucky enough to have tons of animals in my personal and professional life and it seems like such a gift to be able to get paid to spend time with God's creatures. I'm currently working remotely and I have tons of free time. I'm available all day every day at the moment and I'd love to spend my time with your pets! I have a one bedroom apt with two cats which I know is not ideal for most animals but I'm confident that I would be able to make them very comfortable!

“Jodie is an amazing pet sitter. She took great care of all our cats. We have elderly cats on different medicines and are finicky eaters. Jodie did great with their long and complicated schedule. Jodie also left the house cleaner than we left it. Jodie was great at giving daily updates with videos and photos which gave us great peace of mind while away on our trip.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, both cats and dogs, so being around animals is just second nature to me. I had my last cat for 18 years, so I understand how much they’re part of your life and how important it is to trust the person caring for them. Right now, my schedule is very flexible as I work from home full time. I also have a fenced yard and a friendly, golden retriever, so dogs that enjoy being around others have space to play and a built-in companion. At the same time, I’m mindful that every pet is different and I adjust based on their personality and comfort level. I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to dedicate the time, attention, and care throughout the day and week to your fur baby. I’ve had pets in my whole life, cats and dogs, large and small. I genuinely enjoy being around them. I currently have a friendly golden retriever, who gets along well with other dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I do my best to keep things consistent within their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s in my home or during drop-ins, I focus on making sure they’re safe, cared for, and getting the attention they need.

About: I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that pets are family, I treat every pet in my care with patience, kindness, and plenty of attention. I have always had pets in my life ever since I was a child, I can't imagine a life without them. My husband and I of 26 years have always had a dog and a cat in our home, our 2 kids grew up with them as well. We are now empty nesters and our recent family dog Tank passed last year at 17 years old. Oh how we miss him! We currently do not have a dog, but do have a cat named Cali. She is 12 yrs old, has her own space and typically does not interact with the dogs. Our son and his fiance have two dogs (Corgi and Golden Retriever) that we have taken care of when needed since they were puppies. Neighbors and friends have also relied on us to watch, check in with, feed, walk and play with their pups and kitties. We have a fenced back yard with pool, our grand pups enjoy the sun shelf to cool off and occasionally jump in. We live close to the Pinellas Trail as well which is great for early morning and evening walks. I am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I'm happy to follow your pet's usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and lots of cuddles! My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and loved while you are away. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pets to learn more about how I can help. I recently retired from my full time job of 30 years, looking to stay active while enjoying my love for animals by caring for pets. I live in a home with a fenced back yard. I'm happy to follow your pet's usual routine, making them feel safe and loved.

Alex needs to rule the world because it could use a little heart and kindness. My kitties adored her and made a new best friend! Her notes were very thorough and thoughtful.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
