“Will recommend her hands down. Great with my dog, and he is not a tiny one. Very affectioned and patient with him. Very flexible with schedule. I am glad she takes care of my pup.”

“Carlo was a great help for me with my new puppy. He was very helpful and attentive to my puppy and was grateful for him being available last minute. I will definitely be rebooking him again!”

“Sarah is great! She’s so good with our girl, and I can tell she treats my puppy like her own. She communicates the whole time and even sent me some pictures during her visit. I can tell Sarah is exactly the help we needed for our attached pup and we will definitely continue working with her. Highly recommend!”

About: I have 17 years of veterinary care experience as well as years of pet sitting for pets with special medical needs. I’ve worked with a plethora of animals, and am experienced in many different types of veterinary medicine. Ive worked with bottle babies of all species as well as seniors. Animals are my life and I co-parent 8 wonderful souls. My goal is to make your pet just as comfortable as if you never left. I’m currently working at a very flexible avian and small animal vet in Lutz Florida . My availability can always change based on your wants and needs. I will accommodate your fur baby how ever you deem fit in the comfort of their own home. If there are any special requests I am happy to oblige.
About: With over five years of professional zoological animal care experience, I’ve worked with a wide range of species of animals, including reptiles, birds, and both large and small mammals. In addition, I have over two decades worth of experience caring for domesticated animals like dogs, cats, hamsters, etc. Animals have always been a part of my life; as an only child, my childhood dog was my best friend & I was hired for the first time by my neighbor to pet sit her cat when I was 8 years old. Caring for animals is my passion. While I had to leave my zoo job to pursue a more stable career, I’m eager to fill that void by spending time with animals whenever I can! Whether they have fur, scales, or feathers, I enjoy hanging out and getting to know their personalities all the same. From training puppies and bottle-feeding newborn kittens to deworming goats and nursing elderly animals, I’ve done it all. No matter the species, size, or stage of life, I’m your go-to animal expert! Pet care fits seamlessly into my current routine. I have a flexible schedule and full availability, which allows me to dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. Because I’m not juggling another full-time commitment, I’m able to accommodate a variety of schedules, including weekdays, weekends, early mornings, evenings, and last-minute bookings when possible. Your pet’s needs will be a top priority, and you can feel confident knowing they’ll receive consistent, attentive care. I prefer watching pets in their own home, with a new person, the less factors we have to change the better it is for your pet. I do like the discuss expectations, special requirements, and any important info before hand. I will (with your permission) send you pictures, videos, and messages regularly to keep you in the loops about your pets!
About: I have worked in the Pet Care industry for 15 years. My previous positions include: Veterinary Technician - Veterinary Technician Assistant - Kennel Technician - Grooming Assistant - Veterinary Receptionist Taking care of animals brings me joy, so it never feels like a chore, it’s something I look forward to! I stay in close communication with pet parents by sending updates and photos, so they can feel relaxed and confident knowing their pets are safe and happy while they’re away. As a pet-sitter and walker, your pet's safety is my number one priority. My home is puppy-proofed and spacious to allow for cage-free roaming (under supervision of course). My approach with pets is tailored to their individual personality. They are in safe hands with me and will receive lots of cuddles and attention for the entire duration of our time together! :)
“Jake was absolutely amazing. This was our first time ever leaving our dogs, so we were understandably nervous, but from the very beginning he made us feel completely at ease. It was clear right away that they were in great hands. Jake took the time to play with them and give them attention so they never felt alone, which truly meant everything to us. You can tell he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after and treats them like his own. His reliability, kindness, and attentiveness exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would 100% trust Jake again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker.”

About: I have years of experience taking care of animals of all ages! I have experience giving specialized medications, helping with senior animals and helping to train puppies! I give all my love to animals as if they are my own! I work 8 hours a day 5 days a week but go in late and come home at a decent time so your pets will have plenty of human contact! I am ok with animals sharing the bed with me! I spend all my time that I am not working at the house I am pet sitting at! I will be cuddling your pets as much as they let me! I also will walk till their heart is content! You never have to worry about your dog sleeping alone because I love night time cuddles!

About: **I will run 2-4 miles with your high-energy dogs for an additional rate! I am a distance runner and know some dogs want to do the same. +$5 for a 2 mile run (30 min), +$10 for a 4 mile run (60 min). Feel free to message for more details :) - For all furry friends with regular bookings, I always make sure to get some laps in during their walks when they want to so have some fun and get nice and tired - I grew up with large dogs and currently have two crazy cats of my own, and am comfortable with pets of all sizes! I've cared for animals in all periods of life from fostering puppies & stray kittens to caring for a medically complex senior dog. Working in healthcare is a plus because a mess never scares me! I'm currently working part-time completing clinical rotations 3-5 days per week, and am mostly working overnight or mid shifts. This means I am free every morning consistently to care for your pets. I understand the most important thing when interacting with a new animal is learning how to read their body language and show every pet with respect. I understand everyone is different, and can adapt my interactions with them to make them the happiest and most comfortable.
About: I’ve been taking care of my friends and families animal's since I was around 14 and I’ve also always had pets in my household. I have two cats now that I take of. I am currently available to care for your furry friend on weekend and weekdays as well as most holidays. I work some during the week. I live in an apartment complex but there is plenty of places to walk dogs on leashes around the apartment complex and lots of parks near me as well. I have two young cats and they don’t mind other animals.

“This was my first time booking with Rover, and I’m so glad I chose Elisha! She made the process so easy and was very communicative in helping me book my dog’s first walk. My dog is still a puppy and can be a little shy and nervous at first, but he warmed up to her so quickly, which put me at ease. Elisha also kept me updated during the walk, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely be booking with her again, and I’m so happy my puppy has a new friend!”

“Alyssa was fantastic with my energetic German Shepherd! She handled his high energy with ease, providing long, engaging walks that left him happy and tired. Reliable, caring, and great communication. Highly recommend!”


“Ivette did an amazing job walking cumbia, Cumbia tends to be very shy and is sometimes frightened by unfamiliar elements, so it was very valuable that Ivette worked on her confidence and had a lot of patience with her.”


“Jessica was amazing with my dog, Iggy. Nice long walks with plenty of pictures and videos for me to see. Jessica is lovely and I will definitely be looking to use her services if I need them again. 10/10.”
“Jess was able to help us out last minute while we were out of town. She was very patient with our puppy and made him feel comfortable. Very professional and kind we will be using her again!”
