“Yaritza took great care of our dog! He’s very nervous when meeting new people but he instantly loved her! She always sent us photos of him and updated us on how he was doing. She even sent some photos of our cats! We will definitely be using her services in the future!”
“Allison was fabulous with my Rico. I was worried because of his fear of fireworks but she followed instructions and kept me informed of his behavior on her visits. She was personable and easy going and in turn I was able to enjoy my mini vacation. I will definitely book with her again.”
About: I understand the need for in-home care for your fur babies. It’s hard to leave them and to have to worry about them being taken care of. I love to spend time with your dog(s) so they get the love they need when you are gone. I work full time but I am flexible for afternoon (lunch break) visits and evening visits. If morning care is needed, please discuss in advance to see if it will work for both of us. Weekends are also available any time of the day unless I am out of town. My in home service goes beyond just walking and feeding your dog(s). I enjoy having the time to play and provide extra love to your dogs while you are away. Most visits are 20-30 mins on average. I will take pictures and send updates to you so you know your fur baby is happy and cared for. I myself had my Chihuahua for 16 wonderful years and although I don’t have any pets right now, I really enjoy caring for yours! I also love caring for cats too.
“Tyson was amazing as always. He communicated with me every day. Our pets really challenged him this time but he pushed through with no issues or complaints. Thank you Tyson!”
“My cat Jasper loved his check in visits with Adrianna! She was communicative and went the extra mile during the visits, I felt very comfortable with Jasper being in her care and can tell that he was happy and well cared for ☺️ Thank you Adrianna for all that you do! ❤️”
“Stephanie is top notch! I highly recommend her for anyone needing a very responsible and caring pet sitter. She went the extra mile in every way. I was able to relax and enjoy my getaway without any worries. Stephanie kept me up to date on each visit with lots of pictures and the Rover Card details. When I returned every thing was immaculate and my fur babies were so well taken care of! Thank you Stephanie for the extra attention and caring so much!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, learning how to do it on my own when I was nine. I’ve grown up with golden doodles, cats, shizus, Rottweilers, Pomeranians, and retrievers. I have also taken care of, outside of family history, husky’s, pit mixes, and labs. I have also dealt with torn Iris splinters and all of the above. Always find time for the little guys. It’s what my mom always told me. I’ll always find time to check in on the animals as well as make sure everything is and accounted for. I will always make sure that the house remains clean, and the animals are taking care of for food love and of course bathroom. I will ensure that the animals are safe and stay in the premises (exception of indoor-outdoor cats).
“Camron took awesome care of my boys while I was away. Shows up on time and showers them w love. Gave a thorough update so I could enjoy my evening out without worry. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I am a great pet caretaker! I am a clear communicator, organized, flexible, and responsible sitter while giving your pet a loving and playful atmosphere! My animal caretaking experience ranges from Big Horses to small bearded dragons. I love all animals and admire their behaviors & cute quirks! I will ensure your pet receives the best care as I am attentive to detail to a pet’s needs. I also take any clients outside of Rover if preferred. I’m a newly graduated student! I will be going into college in the fall, but i am not staying on campus! I fit pet care into my schedule by filling up my free time whenever I don’t work or have an event. I treat pets with care, kindness, and love! I am flexible enough to pertain to a pet’s needs and looking to grow my experience profile! I’m a quick learner and eager to learn of the different types of care animals need! I have a dog of my own who i’ve taken care of since she was 2 months.
“we are so glad we found you. It makes us feel so much better to know Sasha is able to play for most of the day. We haven't been puppy parents in a very long time. we appreciate you. Thank you!”
About: I grew up with dogs and they were my best friends. Now I have a huge house with a screened backyard, dogs can run around and have fun. I don’t use crate. I have small and big dog beds if you can’t provide one with no charge. Dogs are also welcome to sleep with me in my bed too. I am currently a full time student, my class is remote so I have time to cook and walk dogs per client request. For me taking care of dogs is not work but a pleasure. I have screened backyard and anywhere outside of the house I will make sure the leash is on. Their safety is my priority. They always have clean water and food. I usually wash dog bowl daily.
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and have owned six dogs over the years, with four currently! I have been surrounded by animals every day and it has given me hands-on experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels! My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to be available for pet care whenever needed. I can accommodate a variety of schedules, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute requests. When caring for pets in a client's home, I will focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care requirements. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while respecting both the pet's needs and the client's home. I can also provide regular updates and photos if the owner requests so!
About: Hi! 👋🏻I am a young healthcare professional who loves spending time with animals in her off-time. Current cat mom of a sweet senior boy🐈. I have cared for my cat for 15 years and I have experience fostering kittens before that. I have periodically done pet sitting for friends and neighbors for 10 years. I would be delighted to keep your furry baby some company by playing with them, feeding them, walking them, or cuddling them while you are away! I have dog experience as well (I have had 2 dogs over the past 10 years), however I do prefer cats🤫💕 I am a 4th year medical student who will be working full time in Tampa come mid-June. Until then, I pretty much have full availability! I have been using my free time to spend time with friends and family, but I would love to start using it to take care of animals and make a few extra dollars until my actual paychecks start rolling in. I am more than happy to do home visits and spend as much time there with your pet as you request! However, I cannot bring them to my home because my cat is a diva and does not do great with other cats.
About: Hi, I am Neli and I have been taking care of dogs for most of my life. I have helped family and friends with their pets while working and traveling. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I look forward to getting acquainted with your pets and helping you take care of them. My flexible schedule allows me to spend as much time with your dogs as needed. Thank you for considering me for your pets’ needs. . I have a flexible schedule during the week and I am able to check on your pets throughout the day. I am also available occasionally on weekends. I currently do not have a dog so I am looking forward to spending time with your pups and loving on them. It would be greatly appreciated. 😉
About: I have been boarding dogs with rover for 3 years now and have had experience with all kinds of dogs. I have had dogs my entire life as big as a St Bernard and as small as a pomeranian so I am familiar with many breeds and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs. I recently lost my dog to cancer so no dogs currently live here. I work from home as a photographer so I am home most of the day to give attention to your dog. I would never leave the dog alone for more than a few hours. I typically have a few dogs at a time most of whom are regulars at my house that keep to pretty regular routine. I have a fenced in yard and an older dog that will keep your dog company throughout their stay. Your dog would have access to most of the house throughout the day. Can keep up with any training you are working on including crate training if you want but I do not require a crate in my house. Parks and walking paths are nearby for exercise. I will send updates throughout their stay so you know they are being cared for properly. I prefer doing a meet and greet if possible so we can make sure it's a good fit and you feel comfortable leaving your family members with me.
“Cat is always on time and SO good with our kitty. She goes above and beyond to spend time with our cat, rescuing her toys and keeping us updated while we are away. Having Cat has made traveling so much easier!”
“Wendy has been an absolute lifesaver for our family!! I contacted her last minute because we had a death in the family and had to be out of state for a funeral and she didn’t hesitate to help!! She treated our kitty like he was her own ❤️ was in constant contact with me and went above and beyond anything I was expecting! I am so grateful for her! I will definitely book Wendy again very soon!”

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!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,275 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lutz. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lutz stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lutz. On Rover:

- 97% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
