About: Hey, I’m Gabby! I live in a cozy apartment in downtown Tampa with a private fenced park - plenty of space for walks and playtime. I work from home, so I’m around all day to hang out with your pup, give them attention, and keep them company. I recently lost my soul dog, Romeo, and I understand how much your dog means to you. To me, pets are family, and I treat them like my own. Your pup’s safety is my #1 priority, and I’ll provide them with a safe, loving environment while you’re away. I also help out with a local dog rescue in Tampa, so I’m experienced with all types of dogs (puppies to seniors, big to small, low energy to high energy) and can handle meds if needed. I just want your dog to feel at home, whether that’s playing, cuddling, or just hanging out. I remember when I needed pet sitters in the past I was so nervous and would do all my research to make sure my sitter was safe and experienced. I can ensure you that with me, your pups will be well taken care of, loved, and safe! I work from home, so I can provide around the clock pet care 24/7. Let me know what your pets schedule is like and I will maintain it. Your pets safety and happiness are my top priority. All safety measures are taken to provide a safe experience for everyone. This includes complete supervision, proper fitting gear, safe walking routes and other measures to ensure the well being of all.

“I left Thunder with Taylor for about a week, and she was fantastic! She kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, and he came back happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her”



“Marco was fantastic on Lukas first day care! I could work very relax because of Marcus took care of my furry son. When Lukas came back home slept around 3 hours. Its a Siberian Husky and very hiper lol. thank you Marcos, Lukas had a great time with you and your family. I recommed Marcos 100%.”


“This was my first time leaving Josie with a sitter, and I was honestly a little nervous about how it would go. But Allie was amazing from the start. She was super communicative, sent me the sweetest photos and videos, and made sure I felt totally at ease. Josie had the best time playing with their dog, Peanut. It was obvious Josie was having a blast. She even crashed for a nap with Peanut like they were old friends. I loved that Josie felt safe and happy, it means so much to me. I’m so grateful for their care and would absolutely book with them again.”


“Danielle is the best dog sitter out there. I left my puppy there without any issue and every time I picked her up she was as happy as she can be. She’s truly an amazing sitter. Highly recommended.”


About: I’m a business owner who lost my dog June 22, 2025 after 17 years. Not ready to own another dog quite yet so thought this would be a great way to still be around dogs. I work from home and have a small fenced in area. I’m able to be with your dog essentially the entire day and hang out! Small fenced in area, plenty of toys, doggy steps, ability to go on the couch or bed and a crate but prefer to not keep dogs inside a crate unless owner requests for whatever reason.

“Ariel and his girlfriend are so amazing with Rocky! He had such a great time with them for daycare and I felt so comfortable with them from the first day we met. Ariel is very communicative sending updates and pics throughout the day! I will definitely be rebooking!”


About: I've owned two dogs and a cat for the past 17 years. Unfortunately we're a pet free family at the moment so we're eager to fill the void while we take our time to find the right dog to add to our family. We do have a small child who will be at home some days and all nights/weekends, but she loves animals and plays very gently. Making sure you feel comfortable while you're away is something I strive for. I can guarantee a picture and status update at least daily so you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands and is living it up! Last thing to note is that I am active and plan on being active with your pet. If your dog likes/needs walks, I'll make sure they get out and about and have plenty of opportunity to burn off some energy. I work from home and have limited engagements during the day, so the majority of the time I'll be here hanging out with your pet. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run and play. I've got a young daughter who may also be around during the day, and will be around in the evenings and on the weekends. We live in a nice walkable neighborhood and I like to get out and walk, so I'll make sure your pet(s) have plenty of exercise and attention.

About: Hi, I’m McKay—lifelong dog-lover, proud pup parent (George, Golden Retriever, 80 lbs), and now working from home full-time. With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I create a loving, structured, and fun-filled atmosphere in my apartment home. I work from home Monday - Friday and am available for drop in visits, daycare or boarding for your fur baby. As a dog mom myself, it's easy to incorporate another pup into my day-to-day. I’ll treat your fur baby just like my own: - Constant attention and supervision while working remotely - Frequent potty breaks (every 4–8 hrs) and daily walks/playtime in safe neighborhood or fenced area - Positive reinforcement and gentle handling - Regular photo updates and open communication so you’re always in the loop

“So fortunate to have found Rachel. She has a cozy comfortable place for my two dogs. Her two cats and one dog are so sweet and friendly. I’d recommend her a hundred times.!”


“Grace was great and we had happy pups! We had a last minute booking as something came up & her communication was prompt from our 1st talk & throughout the day she cared for our dogs. Will be bringing my boys back!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. I worked as a kennel assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience feeding, walking, bathing, and monitoring the health of multiple dogs at once. Outside of work, neighbors, friends, and family have regularly relied on me to care for their pets. I’m experienced with high-energy puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special care needs. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like my own. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 2 PM. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddle sessions, I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pet the attention they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with access to a secure courtyard and a dog park just steps away—perfect for safe play and exercise. I have two friendly dogs who love making new friends, so your pup will always have company! I can crate your dog if needed, stick to any routine you provide, and keep you updated with photos and messages. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities when pets are in my care.

Christopher A.
“I have had the privilege of knowing Chris for over 20 years — first as his finance professor at the University of Tampa, and later as a close personal friend. Over the years, I have come to know him as an exceptionally trustworthy, honest, loyal, and compassionate individual. Chris has a lifelong love for dogs. He cared for two beloved Westies for many years, with his last companion living to the remarkable age of 17 — a testament to the exceptional care, attention, and affection Chris provided. Sadly, his last dog recently passed away, and while he is not yet ready to bring a new one into his home, his heart for animals remains as strong as ever. Walking dogs through Rover is a perfect way for him to share that care and dedication with others’ pets. I can say with complete confidence that any dog in Chris’s care will be treated with kindness, patience, and genuine affection. He is the sort of person who goes above and beyond, and his responsible, dependable nature ensures that both dogs and their owners can have full peace of mind. I recommend Chris without hesitation — he would be a wonderful addition to the Rover community. Sincerely, Jay Wheaton”

He's a 95 pound dog and she walks him at least 3-4 times a day ensuring to get his energy out. She's also great with communication and answers all my calls/texts within a timely manner. Cherry on top is that my dog loves her pup George! All around 10/10- highly recommend!”

Oakford Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Emily was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. My dog seemed to really love her— when I picked him up, she left the room for like 2 seconds and he got so excited to see her come back, which isn’t something he always does! She had him all day while I was at work with no issues. I’d definitely recommend her!

I know that someone takes good care of Max based on his behavior. Gina took care of my dog twice this week for the first time ever and Max was very happy to see her the second time. That told me everything I needed to know about her as a dog sitter. I totally recommend her.
I’ve taken toby to Austin multiple times for daycare and will continue to do so. Toby always leaves tired which I love and all the videos Austin sends of Toby makes me so happy. I would recommend him to anyone and I am glad that I finally found a Rover sitter that I trust!

Miki was so sweet to Maggie. Upon arrival she immediately bent down to pet her and make her feel comfortable. She sent plenty of photos and checked in quite often. This was a last minute booking and was so happy to be able to drop her off within 20 minutes of booking. She is close to work for me so I will definitely be using her again in the future.

Bruno had so much fun playing at Gracen’s house! She was very nice and make pick up and drop off pleasant and easy. Bruno got into some water playing in the backyard and she even gave him a bath. Gracen was wonderful! We will definitely have Bruno go back to play with Bentley!
