“Tamara helped me all week with my French bulldog. She was very punctual and communicative. My frenchie is very sweet but he can be stubborn, Tamara was patient with him. I will book her again in the near future! Highly recommended.”

About: All my life I have enjoyed spending time with animals, learning their personalities, and helping with their care. I have volunteered at the Pet Resource Center in both the cat and dog play areas and cared for my own pets. I have taken care of cats for the last 8 years, having 4 and up to 5 cats in my care at any given time. I have also helped my friends and neighbors with their dogs including boarding at my house and daily visits while my friends were on vacation. I look forward to helping you with your furry friends and making them feel loved and special! I currently work from home and can be available in the mornings before 8am. I am also available after work 4:30pm and during lunch time I would keep your pet’s schedule as close as possible to their owners daily routine. Also, I would treat your home with respect and care if I am watching pets in your home and will leave the way I found it.

About: I do work with clients but I also work with the dogs. Every dog has its own lively hood that is important to cater. A dog doesn’t just need food and water, it needs companionship. Despite working a part time job, my availability is open for most days of the week. As long as I know the time frame, your dogs will be given the best care I can give! To help overcome any fear or anxiety about a stranger in your house, I do offer meet and greets to help provide a peace of mind.

About: Hi there! I’m Nick, and animals are my life. With years of experience in pet care, I've had the joy of looking after dogs, cats, and birds. I’ve handled everything from feeding and walking to playing and training for dogs of all sizes. When it comes to cats, I take care of their feeding, playing, and grooming. Plus, I’m pretty good at foundational puppy training and managing misbehaved dogs. My passion for animals drives me to provide exceptional care, ensuring every pet I look after is happy and healthy. I truly love the time I spend with animals and am dedicated to their well-being. I’m excited to meet you and your furry friends! I have a flexible and open schedule, allowing me to provide pet care services throughout the day. This is my full-time job, so I’m able to fully dedicate my time to caring for your pets. I make sure to give each pet consistent attention and engagement tailored to their needs. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening feeding, I’m available to fit seamlessly into your pet’s schedule. I will be offering pet care services exclusively at clients' homes, ensuring that pets are comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I always supervise pets closely and follow the specific directions provided by their owners.

About: I've always had a love for animals and understand that every pet deserves patience, kindness, and personalized care. Whether it's going for walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'm reliable, attentive, and committed to following your pet's routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while you’re away. Each day will include care based on your instructions, including meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for. I make sure they are fed but not over fed, have plenty of water and walks as well as taking them to a large open field near my house to run off all their energy and play fetch.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about 9 years old, and animals have truly been a lifelong passion of mine. I grew up on a ranch in Pennsylvania, where I gained hands-on experience with all kinds of farm animals as well as dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, and more exotic species. Growing up, I also helped rescue and care for animals until they were healthy and able to fend for themselves again. Today, animals are still a huge part of my everyday life. I have two 15-year-old long-haired Chihuahuas, a 130-pound Sulcata tortoise, and five Fennec foxes. I am also a USDA-licensed breeder of Fennec foxes, which has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for animals at every stage of life—from newborns requiring close attention and specialized care to senior pets who need a little extra patience and TLC. Because of my experience, I’m very comfortable around animals with different personalities, sizes, ages, and care requirements. I understand how important routines are and how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care. I work full-time as a Realtor, but I’m also a full-time animal mom! Since having so many animals of my own makes traveling difficult, I often find myself caring for friends’ and family members’ pets instead—and I genuinely love it. I decided to join Rover because spending time with animals is something that truly brings me joy. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and needs time to warm up, a senior who prefers a slower pace, or simply happiest sticking to their normal routine, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make them feel comfortable and cared for. Your pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re family, and that’s exactly how I’ll treat them while they’re in my care. ❤️🐾 I make my own schedule and have a great deal of flexibility throughout the day. As a Realtor, I’m frequently driving throughout the area for work, which makes it easy for me to incorporate drop-in visits, walks, feedings, and other pet care into my daily routine. My schedule varies from day to day, so I can often accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, and last-minute requests. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine whenever possible! I provide drop-in care for many different types of animals and understand that every pet has their own routine and individual needs. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, walks and potty breaks, playtime, crate or enclosure cleaning, litter boxes, and other routine care. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats as well as reptiles, birds, small animals, senior pets, newborn animals, and many exotics. I have extensive hands-on animal experience and am a USDA-licensed exotic animal breeder. When caring for pets in a client’s home, safety is always my priority. I carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, keep doors, gates, crates and enclosures secure, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life — three of them, all with different personalities and needs — so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I originally went to school for veterinary medicine before changing my major, but that never changed the love I have for furry friends. Walking dogs is peaceful and therapeutic for me, and I’m excited to finally turn this into a hobby and a service I can share with others. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simple companionship. I’m able to adjust easily to each pet’s needs, and I’m happy to follow their normal routine so they feel right at home. My goal is always to match the rhythm they’re used to and give them the same level of care and comfort they receive with you. My home has a screened lanai with a pool that is not fenced in, and I also have stairs inside the house. The main areas are tile flooring, with carpeted bedrooms for comfort. I keep fresh water bowls easily accessible throughout the home since I have dogs of my own. I’m always mindful of each pet’s safety and make sure the environment matches their needs, energy level, and mobility.

About: I have had dogs all of my life. Multiple at the same time throughout my life. Since moving to school I haven’t had a fur friend with me. Dog sitting seemed like a no brainer. I am a recent graduate from university of Tampa with a good amount of time on my hands and I love dogs. I figured why not fill up some of my time helping other take care of their fur children when they aren’t able to. I am many friends go to dog watcher and enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes. I’m fine with coming a few times a day for a walk or even just stopping by for some play time and feeding

“New to the area and I am VERY skeptical about strangers watching my dogs. Let me just say how thankful I am to have met Carolina! She has been such a life saver, and she spoils & treats my boy as if he is her own. She is Reliable, great at communicating, sends updates (photos) and overall a very sweet person. I will definitely continue to use her for all of my weekly walks/stays. Thank you for watching my Buddy ?❤️”

About: 3 things you should know about me 🐾 1. I’ll follow your instructions to a T — and I’ll over-communicate! I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, so you can expect plenty of updates, pictures, and check-ins about your pet. 📸 2. Your pet will get LOTS of love and attention. ❤️ I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable in their own home while you’re away. Whether that means playtime, cuddles, walks, or just keeping them company, I’m there for them! 3. Your booking also helps me spoil my own baby, Peanut! 🐶 Peanut needs toys and treats too, after all. 😂 So please let me be your pet’s new favorite aunt — I’ll treat them like one of my own! 🐾💕 I am currently taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule for drop-in visits. I can plan visits around feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving pets attention while their owners are away. Since I do online school, I am organized with my time and can communicate clearly about availability and visit updates. I will care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I will follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and house rules. I will make sure doors, gates, crates, and feeding areas are secure before I leave. I also have my own dog, so I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, care, and respect.

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.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
