About: While I’m just starting professionally, I’ve always loved dogs and have one of my own who means the world to me. Caring for my own pup has taught me patience, responsibility, and how much love and attention dogs truly need. I may not have formal experience yet, but I bring genuine care, energy, and a deep love for all dogs to every walk and playtime. I’ll treat your pup like family because that’s what they are. I’m excited to get into pet care not just as a job, but because it’s something I truly enjoy and feel passionate about. I’m a full-time college student and also work full time, but my schedule is very flexible. I’m usually available after noon most days, and sometimes before 3 PM, depending on whether I have an opening or closing shift at work. I’m committed to working diligently to fit in any and all pups that need me, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your dog’s needs with care and consistency. At home, my dog and I enjoy daily walks, usually twice a day, and we always make time for play before and after work. He’s truly part of the family and gets all the love and attention he deserves, and I believe every pup should have that same level of care. I’ll make sure they always feel safe and loved, I always prioritize each dog’s comfort, routine, and happiness as if they were my own.
“As a first-time Rover user, I am impressed with my experience with Melissa! I have two needy cats, one of them needing additional medical care due to being a senior. Melissa was prompt, thorough, and made sure my cats stayed as in-routine as possible while we were away for a couple of days. She would message me when she would arrive or leave and provided a full report card of their activity (including some amusing photos) during each drop-in, which gave me peace of mind. I would recommend Melissa to anyone needing pet care, and I will use her again in the future when I need someone to keep my lonely cats company while we’re out of town.”
“Lisa was amazing! This was my first time using this app and it far exceeded my expectations. Lisa sent us daily pictures and updates that made missing our kitty so much easier 💚 I felt like my cat was in the absolute best care possible and we are so grateful to Lisa. I can't recommend her enough! We will certainly use her again the next time we leave town. Thank you Lisa!!”
About: I have pet sit for about two years through family friends, I am reliable, responsible and fun! I enjoy helping my community with pet care! I work M-SAT, but once I am out of work I go straight to pet sitting when needed. I still fit it in my routine! I care for clients pets in their homes. I am good with their feeding schedules, as well as going on walks or outside and playing!
About: I have volunteered at pet shelters, boarded and babysat dogs, and have encountered all different types of behaviors. All of them need love and attention. I’m working part time remotely and have plenty of time to take care of pets. I am available everyday of the week to follow any schedule or routine that your pet might need. I can take pets on short or long walks, spend time with them, and adhere to any routine that your pet finds comfortable. I can keep you updated on your pets day as well.
About: I love animals and have been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life. Not only do I care for my two dogs (Gilbert and Bella!) but I have a lifetime of experience taking care of dogs and cats for my friends and family. I specialize in walking dogs and have experience walking in heavily populated areas, although I prefer to take dogs to parks and surround them by nature when I can. I am perfectly comfortable working with multiple dogs, but I am equally comfortable working with a single dog and keeping others from approaching if that is what the dog needs. Walking a dog is about what the dog needs, not what the people or surrounding dogs want. Sometimes that is a busy walk or trip to the dog park for socialization, and sometimes that is a quiet solo walk. Additionally, I am always prepared with snacks, water, and poop bags on my walks. I am also comfortable doing drop-in visits for some playtime, feeding, and/or a bathroom break. I am happy to provide the care that your pet needs! I work from home, part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule! I am happy to work with your pet in the early mornings, middle of day, or in the afternoon. I am available some evenings, but this fluctuates and might change day-to-day. I will always bring water, snacks, poop bags, and extra leashes & collars with me. I am happy to walk your dog by themselves or with other dogs. Similarly, I am happy to take your dog to a dog park for some off-leash exercise and socialization, but it is ultimately up to you! I am happy to accomodate whatever your pet needs.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years now. I love any animals, and am happy to help with yours!! I’ve also taken care of tortoises, bearded dragons, fish, hedgehogs, birds, and hamsters as well!! I work part time and am a full time student, I only go to school two days a week so I have plenty of free time during the weeks and between school and work to hang out with your pets!! I always be sure to keep eyes on your pets to make sure they’re not getting into anything and I take them out often, make sure they’re always fed and walked, and i love to play with them as well!!
“Amanda is such a wonderful cat sitter. She allows me to actually enjoy my vacations away from our beloved cats because she is so reliable, trustworthy, communicative, and connects with our shy, anxious kitties. They absolutely adore her and she takes the best pictures. My shy, skittish cat sat on her foot last visit!!! This is a big deal. I couldn't recommend Amanda more highly!”
About: Lifelong dog and cat owner! Trusted with shy pets and have consistently earned praise for building quick connections with lovely animals that usually dislike strangers! I’m currently working part-time at the zoo so I’ll have plenty of time to hang out with your babies and care for them! I can crate your pets if necessary, provide treats (that you’ve authorized), and give them plenty of attention! I’ll also adhere to all the rules provided for the care of your babies.
“Adriana was great!. She hit if off immediately with my three-month old Shihpoo, and her first visit had accompanying photos and a report of Roisin's activities. I will use her again!”
About: My first job, at age 12, was pet sitting/dog walking. I've had pets my entire life ranging from dogs and cats to rodents, fish, and reptiles. I currently have 4 cats. I have experience with older dogs and cats as well kittens and puppies. I've also spent years working in customer service so no request will be too much. I have plenty of time for walks and playtime. I can keep up whatever routine your pet is used to. I live near a dog park and can take your pup if they like to play with other dogs If your dog doesn't like cats, my cats can easily be kept separate in my room. They spend most of their day sleeping in there anyway
About: I am a dog lover looking to give you exceptional service! I have a 75lbs pit bull mix who is the love of my life. I love all dogs and would love to care for yours! I work as a server so my hours are short and very flexible. I’m good for drop ins and overnights as your pet will not be alone for long. I’m usually always with my pet. From morning walks, to breakfast, to midday cuddles, to afternoon walks, to dinner time, to late night cuddles. I’m typically against crating unless I am not able to supervise. I love just having the dog around and playing with them
“Great care again with Donna! She’s really winning over our shy kitty and the others already love her! Very thorough, caring and great communication!! Highly recommend Donna for your pet care needs!!”

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 Oldsmar 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Oldsmar choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Oldsmar with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
