“Adrianna was awesome. Great communication when she was coming and going, gave plenty of updates and photos and did everything she said she would! Would definitely recommend and book again.”
“Annalise was great! She took care of my cats while I was away and gave me peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and sent thoughtful updates with photos after every visit. It was clear she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after.”
“Allison continues to be WONDERFUL. She is so communicative and thoughtful. She truly feels like a partner in the process. I feel 100% comfortable with Allison checking in on our senior dog. I will use her time and time again and so should everyone else!”
“My little boy and I live Arianne!! She is sweet, compassionate, and reliable while creating a playful setting for Jasper. He feels important and valued with her. He gets ecstatic if I even mention her name and waits by the front door for her whenever I do...in hopeful anticipation for her visit. It is the sweetest thing ever! ❤️ We are very thankful for her!! ?”
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.
“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!”
“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!”
“I reached out to Cat the night before our family’s Christmas trip, hoping and praying she could help us after our sitter canceled last minute due to illness—and she was an absolute Godsend! She responded to our inquiry promptly, and even though we didn’t have time for a meet-and-greet, I felt completely confident in trusting her with our fur babies. Cat was exceptional in every way. She communicated with us daily, providing updates and adorable photos of our cats, and followed the feeding and care instructions perfectly. She even went above and beyond by bringing in packages from our porch, which was such a thoughtful touch and not something we had expected. The best part? When we returned, our cats acted like we had never been gone! They barely cared we were home—just asking for dinner before retreating, perfectly content. This reassured me that Cat gave them all the love and attention they needed while we were away. We are so thankful to have found Cat on Rover and will absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter!”
“My boyfriend and I went out of town for a week to visit family and could not have done it without Tyson. I felt so confident my babies were in good hands. He sent me pictures everyday and kept me updated on both of them. He was very good about being consistent with his times to make it easy for my babies to stay in a somewhat routine while we were gone. Thank you Tyson and I appreciate you more than I can express in words. I’ll definitely be keeping him in mind for my next trip out of town.”
“Sarah has become a regular in our lives! She is so great with my pup and takes such good care of her. I feel such a relief knowing Sarah spends time with our girl and I don’t have to worry about her while I’m gone. And Sarah always goes above and beyond if her schedule permits — to the point that I had her just hang out with our puppy for two hours for no other reason than to keep an eye on her because our pup had to wear a onesie. 😂”
About: Hi - I'm Sveta! I am a senior at NYU and I’ve been caring for pets my whole life! I had two dogs growing up - a Yorkie and a German Shepherd - and I also currently have a Tabby cat. My experiences have taught me how to care for pets of very different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and spend quality time with their pets. I truly love all pets and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away 🐶💛 I’m currently a student at NYU, so while I do have classes throughout the week, they’re spread out in short portions of the day. I am home majority of the day so your pets are never left alone for long periods, and I’m able to give them plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day 😇! I live in a very safe, quiet high-rise apartment that’s wider than most NYC apartments, giving pets plenty of space to relax, play, and nap throughout the day! 🎾 The building is fully secure and pet-friendly, with a completely enclosed, fenced grassy area on the 30th floor where dogs can safely run around, get fresh air, and unwind. I’m also located near Bryant Park and the West Side Highway piers, which are perfect for walks and runs in beautiful, open spaces 🌞 The building is home to many other pet families, creating a friendly and welcoming environment where pets can socialize safely. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities!
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.
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.
“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!”

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!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lutz on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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.

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.
