Dog Boarding in Northeast Macfarlane, Tampa

“Kristin and her loving family were a complete godsend for my two senior dogs and me! As a new Florida resident working from home, I faced the jarring predicament of leaving my fur babies behind for the first time—with my entire support system over 3,000 miles away. After a recent sitter horror story, I was anxious about finding someone trustworthy. Kristin’s exceptional communication, endless affection for my dogs, and frequent updates (FOMO!) put me at ease immediately. Her thoughtful care, attention to my dogs’ needs, and warm, cuddly family made it clear—they weren’t just being watched; they were being loved. Seeing them so happy truly filled me with gratitude. If you’re a fellow Tampa newcomer or simply hesitant about entrusting your pets to a new sitter, let Kristin’s own fur babies be the proof of her deep love and understanding of animals. Their easygoing, respectful, and welcoming demeanor reflects the care and compassion they receive daily. Thanks to Kristin, I was able to fully relax and be present while celebrating the birth of my nephew—something I never thought possible with my usual separation anxiety (haha!). I cannot recommend her enough!”

“If only I could rate 20+ stars this is the sitter that deserves it. We are in complete thankfulness for Cece. She took care of Nico as if he was her own. I was able to travel and enjoy my 11 day vacation feeling at peace, knowing my baby was being extremely well treated; she was a huge part of me being able to enjoy my vacation. Cece send me videos and pics daily, she communicated anything regarding Nico. She goes above and beyond. I am so happy we found her. We love her and are extremely happy with the services. Will definitely book again without any hesitation. Thank you❤️”

“Maxine is wonderful! I was nervous about the idea of dropping off my fur baby with a stranger for a week but Maxine really cares about the animals she dogsits. From the moment I started texting her I knew she was the one I could feel comfortable leaving my Bella with. Not only did she give Bella her meds and keep up with her feeding schedule and potty breaks, she loved her as if she was her pet. She cuddled with her and took several super adorable photos and shared them with me throughout the week. I would absolutely call Maxine again to look after Bell for me and know she was loved and taken care of. This route is 1000× better than using a boarding service especially for my pom that needs love and attention. Bella enjoyed her time with Maxine. Thank you for everything, Maxine! 😍 ❤️”

“Ashleigh was an absolute life save watching our dog Juneau! We had a trip planned for months & our dogs were going to stay with a boarder. However, June tore her ACL 2 weeks before our trip. I had never used Rover before but Ashleigh was perfect & put me at ease! She took the best care of June, sent a lot of updates, & kept her safe and happy! She was also very flexible as I had to ask her to watch Juneau an extra day. We can't thank her enough. Highly recommend her far all your fur baby needs!”

“Jocelyn was awesome!! My one dog is older and needs a lot of care, and my other dog is particular on who she likes. They both loved Jocelyn. They were in very good care. I will be using Jocelyn again”

“Matt watched Luna for 10 nights while my family and I traveled for the holidays. Luna was well taken care of and came home happy and healthy. We would definitely consider using Matt again for overnight pet sitting.”

“Estephan did an excellent job of looking after my 1 year dog Mocha. Due to work, I asked him last minute if he could take my dog the same night, and he was able to accommodate my request. Mocha seemed to have a blast with Estephan and his children. 10/10 would book with Estephan again.”

“Ariel and Shenesys are always incredible but really went above and beyond for Rocky while I was out of town. It was his first time staying overnight somewhere and they made sure he was comfortable! They are so communicative and Rocky loves being with them! I am very thankful that I have found them on rover.”

“Mikayla was great with Carter and Brady! She was very communicative throughout their stay, sending regular updates and pictures. I really appreciated her flexible with my schedule and the dogs loved their walks and came home happy and tired. I will definitely be booking again :)”

About: I absolutely love pets; I've had a dog for almost all of my life, and I currently can't afford one, so taking care of ur fur baby is the next best thing. I've trained my dogs in the past as well so if there's anything you'd like me to practice with your pup, I can! I have a flexible job and take online courses so I'm able to give your dog whatever's needed; constant pets, scheduled meals, or lots of walks! We keep no hazardous or dangerous materials anywhere where a pet could reach them. I'm able to walk your pet multiple times a day and can keep them crated or out and about around the apartment.

“Benny was so happy to get to stay with AK a second time. She is super caring of our senior dog with special dietary/medicine needs and separation anxiety. Thank you, AK!”

“My regular one was unavailable and I needed one last-minute. I found Roger, who is only 1.2 miles from my home. He immediately agreed to sit Binx and took good care of him while I was away. He responded to texts fairly quickly and was very gracious when I returned a bit later than the agreed-upon pickup time, which I appreciated. I know when my dog is comfortable somewhere new and I could tell right away Binx was at ease in Roger's home. I would recommend Roger as a pet sitter.”

“Rachel was everything you would hope for in a dog sitter!! She sent us a daily photo of our Murphy girl, was super responsive when we had questions and very flexible with pick up and drop off times! Murphy had so much fun staying at her house and we will definitely be reaching out to have Murphy stay again! We are so thankful to Rachel for taking great care of our girl, we were able to actually relax on vacation knowing Murphy was safe and happy.”

“Virginia was a WONDERFUL sitter—if I could give more than 5 stars I would! ⭐️ This was my first time using Rover, but won’t be my last! I expressed my anxieties of being away from Bij on a work trip, and she eased them all. I got regular and often updates—she truly treated and loved Bij as if he were her own. And her fur baby is just as precious—Cozy and Bijou became best friends! From letting him sleep in a bigger bed, to sharing all Cozy’s toys, to regular walks and playing all the fetch he could handle—Bijou was on a vacation! Virginia is kind and communicative, and I will happily be booking with her again! ❤️”
