About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I would love to walk and love on your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I love walking in and seeing the smiles when they know they get to go for a walk! I’m a local PreK teacher so my schedule is usually free after 3:30 on weekdays, but my weekends are usually wide open! Growing up I always had animals in my house so I’m very comfortable with messes they make or medicine they need, so if your babies need that too I’d be more than happy to help! If you’re looking for someone to have your pets feel comfortable and happy all day, even while you’re away, I’d love to be that person! I'm currently a PreK teacher at a local elementary school, so my weekdays are open starting around 3:30 pm! On the weekends, I usually hang out at home or around town, so my schedule is pretty flexible! In your home, I promise to follow whatever makes your pets the most comfortable! Whether your dogs like to lounge on the couch or feel more content in a crate, I'll do whatever you'd like!
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 20 years and absolutely love dogs! I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day. I have a very friendly doodle who loves having another dog around. To make sure every guest gets lots of individual attention and feels comfortable in our home, I only care for one visiting dog at a time. I also have children, so visiting dogs must be friendly and comfortable around both kids and other dogs. I welcome dogs under 50 lbs who are house-trained, non-aggressive, and not destructive or prone to chewing furniture or household items. My goal is to provide a safe, relaxed, loving home-away-from-home where your dog can feel like part of the family while you’re away. I work from home, so your pup will rarely be alone and will enjoy plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and companionship throughout the entire day. I provide a safe, loving home with constant supervision. I work from home, take one dog at a time, and have a friendly doodle. I will try to follow your schedule as closely as possible.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 2 years, but truly my love for animals started as a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and even pets with special needs. My goal is always to make your furry family member feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m available on weekends and weekdays. perfect for boarding, walks, or drop-in visits. I love making time every day to care for animals, so your pets will always get the attention they deserve. I provide a safe and loving environment with a fenced yard and my daughter loves pet. I’m happy to crate your pet if needed and always supervise outdoor playtime. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure every pet is treated like family, with lots of love, play, and cuddles.

I’ve always loved being around animals and taking care of them, and I’d love to give your fur babies some extra love, attention, playtime, and of course lots of cuddles! i work part-time, so i have a pretty flexible schedule! my schedule is random every week which is why i cannot do recurring services but I’m usually free around my work hours and have plenty of time to hang out with your pets, take them on walks, play with them, or just keep them company while you’re away! When I’m taking care of your pets in your home, I’ll make sure they’re comfy and get to stick to their normal routine as much as possible!

About: After some time away from Rover, I’m excited to be available to help members of the community with the needs of their pets! Proud dog mom to a 5yo Mini Bichpoo and 1yo Medium Golden-doodle. I will treat and care for your pet with love, patience, and attentiveness. For dog walking appointments; I am available Mondays, Saturdays, and Sundays. For dog sitting appointments; I am available Monday-Sunday unless otherwise booked. My availability will be updated a month in advance to reflect any block out dates.

This includes proper feeding, hydration, meeting hygiene needs, safety from environmental hazards and appropriate play and exercise.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve worked professionally with dogs for over 12 years. I actually got my start through Rover, which led me into working at a pet resort, then into dog training, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Along the way, I earned my degree in psychology, which gave me an even deeper understanding of behavior, communication, patience, and creating trust — not just with people, but with animals too. I’m especially good at reading body language, helping anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining routines that keep pets happy and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or just wants calm companionship and cuddles, I tailor my care to their personality and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always make sure owners feel updated and reassured with communication and photos throughout the stay. Pet care is something I genuinely love doing, and I’m excited to provide a safe, reliable, and positive experience for both you and your pets 🐾 As of right now I am unemployed and looking to make any extra money so I’m pretty open and available! Can do drop ins, walks, doggy day care at home, or house/dog sit! I’m very well versed in animal behavior and safety. So it’s easy to anticipate things I need to pay attention for according to each dog I’m with.
“Jasmine was AMAZING!!! She took wonderful care of our sweet baby while we were out of town! Loved getting the updates and pictures from each visit! Highly recommend and would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and I’m super comfortable with all kinds of dogs and cats. I’ve watched playful puppies, easygoing adults, and sweet senior pets who just need a little extra care. I can stick to feeding routines, give potty breaks as often as needed, go on walks, play, and of course give them plenty of love and attention. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own while you’re away! ❤️ I have open availability, so I’m able to make caring for pets a priority throughout my day. I enjoy structuring my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well‑cared for every single day. I like to care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine; with a lot of love, patience, and attention. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow your routine as closely as possible, like feeding times, walks, and any little habits your pet is used to. I keep their space clean, give them plenty of playtime and cuddles, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’m currently cat mom to Pasha and previously raised two dogs, Noah and Cocosparklechannel, so I know firsthand how much a little consistency and attention means to a pet when their people are away. I’m here for walks, sitting, and everyday care, making sure your dog gets exercise, company, and a routine that feels familiar even when you’re not home. My schedule’s about as open as a golden retriever’s heart. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, whenever your pet needs me, I’m probably free. If you need a sitter, just reach out. I’ll make it work. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first, whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I treat every house like it’s my own, respecting the space, sticking to your instructions, and making sure everything is exactly how I found it. If your pet stays with me instead, my home is a safe, comfortable environment where they’ll get my full attention and plenty of love. Either way, you can trust that your pet is looked after with the same care and responsibility I’d want for my own.
About: Hey, I’m Hayden! I’ve always been the person friends call when they need someone to watch their pet, and I genuinely love it. I have my own dog and cat at home, so I’m used to the different routines, the zoomies, and the snuggles. I’m also a Certified Veterinary Assistant (CVA), so I’m comfortable handling meds and keeping an eye on any health needs. I’m in the Tampa area and happy to help with drop-ins or overnight sits. I’ll stick to your routine, send updates, and treat your animal like my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I currently work part time, so I have a pretty open availability. Specific days may vary, but that can be discussed! I can always work around my schedule for your fur babies. I'm very flexible when it comes to schedules your animals follow. I typically do 3 visits a day, including feedings and walks/playtime, but I am more than flexible to work with you!

My mom is a veterinarian so i’ve grown up surrounded by animals and known animal information all my life. Both of my parents are animal lovers, so of course I am! I love animals so much i have a huge space in my heart for all of them. A lot of people tell me that i love them too much or look at me crazy when i cry over a dead grasshopper or plan my fish a burial service if they have passed instead of flushing them, but it really is just true emotions haha! I will care and love your animals just like my own, i would really love to stay with them and make them feel comfortable :) I work a full time job, monday to friday 8am to 5pm, i take an hour lunch break at 12 pm! i can stay with your pets throughout any day, take care in the morning, if close enough, come and care for lunch time and then straight back after i get off! my job is pretty lenient with accommodations for schedules so please ask if anything different is needed, and i’ll do what i can :) Typically when i pet sit for my clients, i will make sure they are taken care of at the times you need, if needed to be given a good walk i will walk them because i love to walk! I play with them! Anything and everything to make your pets feel at ease and comfortable while you’re away! :)
““I’ve never felt so at ease leaving my dog. The care was exceptional — walks, meals, meds, cuddles — everything was handled with so much heart. The photo and video updates were the highlight of our trip. If you’re looking for someone who treats your fur babies like their own, look no further. Simply outstanding!””
“Deborah went above and beyond while watching our fur baby. We were extremely satisfied and would highly recommend her as your sitter. She took adorable pictures and was in constant contact with updates.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, bunnies, guinea pigs and birds! I love animals and have been pet sitting for over ten years and hopefully many more. My vast experience with different species of pets helps me to adapt and problem solve in any situation. I’m happy to communicate with you and help care for your pets! I am a college graduate and I currently have one dog with my family; she is the highlight of our lives! We make sure she is in good health with her diet and veterinary visits. I have cared for many pets for my friends, family and neighbors throughout the years. I love to see animals thriving in their environment and when responsible, help out with that to the best of my abilities. In our home our porch is screened in for our dog to go outside and sunbathe, we take her for walks, and have specific food for her diet!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lutz
Sara was great with Beau! When she unfortunately couldn't make it to an appointment, she even offered a discount for the next time around. She followed instructions and fed and walked him with no issue. Sara also reached out to ask if Beau had any particular walking areas he'd like to avoid and was available last minute. We'd work with her again!
Jordan was amazing! We booked her on very short notice the same day we left for the weekend, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive. She took wonderful care of our dog, Bella, and sent a detailed care card with updates and pictures after every visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. During one of her visits it was raining and Bella doesn’t like the rain, so couldn’t get her evening walk. Rather than just leaving it at that, Jordan came back later to try again so Bella could get her walk. That extra effort really meant a lot to us. Even though we only booked care for Bella, Jordan also took the time to play with our cat during her visits, which was such a thoughtful bonus and truly appreciated. Jordan was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, especially on such short notice. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!
Juliana provided wonderful care to my three fur babies while I traveled out of town. Within minutes, all pets felt comfortable enough to seek attention and stand next to her. I received pictures and communication throughout the entire booking. I highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lutz is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,061 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lutz. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lutz choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 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 Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lutz with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lutz. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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 sitter.
