“Shawna was excellent with checking in on our two cats! She is very communicative and followed our notes perfectly. It was comforting to know our cats were checked in on and cared for while we were away.”


“Kristal did an amazing job watching our kitties! We were extremely thankful for the daily check-in notes and photos. We highly recommend Kristal and look forward to using her services in the future!”


“Our cat is usually very very shy and would never show herself to people other than family, but Kati was able to befriend her during her short stay, which was a relieve for us. She made sure our cat had some nice company while we were away and we would definitely ask Kati to take care of our cat again on a different trip.”


“My cats always hide. Mallory is so great that one actually came out to investigate. She took care of them and even watered my plants. I will happily work with her again.”


About: I've worked for a dog walking company, wrangled ferrets, and outsmarted wily cats. With nearly a decade of pet sitting experience I'm ready for just about anything your furry friend can throw at me. I'm adept at problem solving and can meet your pet where they need me to be. I have experience administering medication and coaxing the anxious and stubborn out of their shells. I am free most days in the morning and the afternoon if you need a walker quickly. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to work with clients to meet their needs. I will follow any instructions clients give for how much freedom they want their pets to have. I usually like to keep them in sight or in an enclosed area like a fenced in yard when not out on a walk. I like playing and keeping them entertained or sitting quietly together if they're tired. It mostly depends on the energy levels and temperament of each individual.

About: New to Rover, not new to pet sitting! I have been pet sitting since the early 2000s, starting by taking care of my neighbors, friends, and families pets as a first job. Now, it’s something that brings me great joy outside of my day job. I work remote, so I’m fully available to check in & help with your fur babies 7 days a week at any time. During my spare time, I volunteer at a cat sanctuary that specializes in re-socializing abused cats. This has given me experience in proper medication administration, baths, and behavioral rehabilitation. I’m a pet owner myself & know how stressful it can be to leave your fur babies at home with a stranger. Let me help so you can stress less! I work full-time, permanently remote with a flexible job & hours. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings whether it be for spontaneous trips or weekly scheduled visits. Pet care not only fits into my day to day life & job, but it’s what brings me joy! Safety & trust are my top priorities myself. Having two pets of my own at home, I understand the stress of having someone new visit your animals. Let’s chat about your expectations & needs per pet before visits begin. I promise to follow your rules to a T to ensure all steps are followed & everyone is safe.

“Teena was great with my senior, special needs cat. In addition to taking care of the feeding and litter box, she spent quality time with him, playing and brushing him. I'm not sure he was actually happy to have me home again. ;) Thanks so much, Teena!”


“Valerie is the best! We needed someone to look after our rabbit for the weekend and she was a huge help! She was a fast responder and provided us with pictures of the little guy each day so we wouldn't miss him too much. She was even nice enough to bring in our packages for us!!! Highly recommend Valerie.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with a Bachelor's degree in Animal Sciences and hands-on experience caring for pets in both shelter and clinical settings. I started my journey working at a local animal shelter, where I cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments. Now, I work at an animal hospital, where I spend my days caring for boarded cats and dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications and handling special feeding protocols. I also understand that not every pet is easygoing, and that’s okay! I’m comfortable working with pets who may be reactive, anxious, or need a little extra patience and care to feel safe and secure. I work from 7:45 AM to 1:30 PM most days and 12:00 PM to 7:00 PM on Fridays, so I’m available for pet sitting, walks, and visits outside of those hours. Weekend hours may change depending on my work schedule for the week. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet care needs! When caring for your pets in your home, I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, medication, and exercise to ensure they’re getting the care they’re accustomed to. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or snuggles on the couch, I make sure to create a comfortable and safe environment for your pet. I’m also always mindful of the spaces I am in and am more than happy to clean up any messes made! If there are any special needs or behavioral concerns, I’m happy to work with them to ensure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you're away.

I'm also planning on turning my love for animals into a career with marine biology at The University of Tampa! Here for the Summer!!

I have a beautiful park nearby to walk your pup in a dog friendly environment. I follow Cesar Milan and use his techniques with trust, love and respect.

“We thought WE were cat whisperers until Hailey took care of our two Siberians over a ten day vacation... also staying overnight at our home. From day one to our return Hailey communicated with us consistently, providing updates videos and photos. We came home to two happy, healthy kitties. Would highly recommend her to anyone as long as they don't conflict with our vacations! LOL”

We have three pet friendly kids to keep your pet happy and loved and a half fenced yard. Our home is about two thousand square feet and we will go on lots of walks! I have owned several dogs, cats and reptiles over the years. My fiancé has experience with rabbits as well. This is more about having pets around us than making extra money.

Hannah cared our kitty Edison for 21 days while we were on vacation. Hannah is such a natural with cats and Edison got comfortable with her from day one. The regular photos and videos with Edison she shared with us made our vacation more fun and less worried. We will definitely ask for her help again next time.

My cats always hide. Mallory is so great that one actually came out to investigate. She took care of them and even watered my plants. I will happily work with her again.

Deidre is an awesome cat sitter. Our kitty Edison ("MiMi") was hiding from her during first few visits. We were thinking Edison and Deidre might never meet face to face during the 10-day drop-in visits. They ran into each other on day 4, but still kept some distance. The next day they became best friends. 😍 Thank you, Deidre for taking good care of MiMi!
