“Stephanie is the best sitter I’ve had the pleasure of hiring. She is timely and responsive and spent extra time each day with my 2 cats. I will definitely rebook and highly recommend her!”
“Arianne was great. She was doing drop in visits to medicate my cat while I was out of town. My friend I share a home with is elderly and I didn't want to try to do the medication. Arianne was prompt, followed our instructions so the cat could be confined upon her arrival and took time after to say hello to our dogs, including a grumpy old Chihuahua. I definitely plan on using her for future trips.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and truly enjoy spending time with them. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, administering basic care, playtime, walks, and giving plenty of attention and affection. I believe every pet has their own unique personality and routine, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel happy and secure. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, quiet environment, I’ll provide patient, dependable care tailored to their needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pets with the same love and respect I’d want for my own. I’m currently new to the Tampa area, looking to make extra money! My work schedule is From 9-6 occasionally work from home so we can always negotiate between those times, weekends im typically free!

“Camron was an absolute lifesaver on our recent trip! She was fantastic with Raina and made sure our cats felt loved, too. She asked all the right questions about their routines, which immediately showed how much she cares. It's so reassuring to have someone you can trust completely with your pets. Thanks, Camron!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and professional pet sitter providing reliable, high-quality care for dogs, cats, and small animals. However I have been taking care of animals for decades. During my time working for a professional pet sitting company, I was honored to be recognized as “Pet Sitter of the Month” multiple times, and the company itself was voted Best of the Bay for pet sitting. These experiences reflect the level of consistency, trust, and care I bring to every pet I look after. In addition to my professional background, I have lifelong experience caring for animals, having been around and responsible for pets since I was young.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lutz
Yaritza has taken care of my dog several times, and she has always done an excellent job. I have nothing but positive things to say about her. By now, I would definitely consider her a regular, and I always feel comfortable knowing my dog is in great hands with her.
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!
Rachel has been a true blessing whenever we need a sitter for our German Shepherds. She is comfortable with this breed and larger dogs, which puts us - as well as our dogs - at ease in our absence! Rachel is our first contact when we need a sitter, as she’s extremely professional, very responsive, and leaves wonderful notes/photos!
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!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
