“Mia was great with our puppy! This was our first time using Rover and she put our minds at ease and was able to do a last minute meet and greet with us. She was timely and provided great updates and pictures of her time with him. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for them. Growing up, I was the person friends, family, and neighbors trusted to pet sit, and that’s continued into adulthood. I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained hands on experience caring for multiple dogs, understanding different temperaments, and maintaining a safe, structured environment. I have experience with large breeds and am comfortable handling big dogs, as well as administering medication when needed. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and I understand how important it is to keep them safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and work from home, which allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. Because I build pet care into my daily routine, I’m able to stay attentive, stick to your pet’s schedule, and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a calm, structured home environment and intentionally care for only up to two families at a time, allowing every dog to receive plenty of individual attention, love, and care. I offer complimentary meet and greets before every boarding stay so we can get to know each other, discuss your pup’s routine, and make sure we’re the perfect fit. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines. Your pup will enjoy supervised playtime in my spacious backyard, walks, enrichment, plenty of love and attention, and a calm home environment. If they get muddy or messy during their stay, I’m happy to give them a bath with your permission. I provide a clean XL crate and cozy dog bed for dogs that are comfortable using one, but I understand every dog has a different routine. If your pup normally sleeps in bed and you’re comfortable with it, they’re welcome to snuggle up with me at night. My goal is to make every guest feel as safe, loved, and at home as possible. You’ll receive photo updates throughout the day, plus a bedtime photo each evening so you can relax knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. If I ever notice anything out of the ordinary, I’ll contact you right away.
“This was the first time Alyssa took care of my cat, and she was awesome! My cat is usually shy around strangers but he took to Alyssa right away. Alyssa went above and beyond to make my cat feel comfortable and loved while also sending me lots of pictures and updates. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’m a teacher, so I’m very responsible and caring. I also love spending time with animals and I regularly help my clients and friends with their pets. I work remotely at the moment, so I’m pretty flexible. I can walk dogs a few times a day and spend plenty of time with them I am clean and I make sure the pets always have safe conditions. I follow the instructions and listen to what the specific pet needs.
“Our family was so very fortunate to find you on Rover. You’re caring and thorough! We truly appreciated your professionalism and the care you gave our Lilly. We loved the photos and enjoyed seeing what her experience was like for the day. We would highly recommend you to anyone and would definitely book you in the future if needed. Thank you for making our vacation a memorable experience even with traveling with our Lilly Bean! 💕”
“Stephanie is fantastic! The cats really seem to like her and we feel great leaving them in her care. She always sends pictures of the cats while we are away and it's wonderful to see those. She is always friendly, professional, and quick to communicate.”
“Amber is awesome. She took great care of our dog and played with her while we were gone. She updated us every visit and cleaned up her potty accident. Will definitely utilize her services again.”
“Last minute hero coming to help on Thanksgiving. Incredibly knowledgeable and competent with dogs- knew exactly what to do for our puppy. Lovely person, very kind and respectful of our home. Strongly recommend!!”
“Jennifer was wonderful! She has such amazing experience working with cats. My cat, Luna, had gotten a cut on her paw and I had to rush her to the vet before I left for vacation. Jennifer made sure to pay special attention to Luna to make sure she wasn’t limping or hurt. My cats were a little shy around her at first but they warmed up to her. I’ll absolutely hire Jennifer again!”
“Kelly is always amazing with our 3 babies! She shows them love, plays with them, and keeps us updated about the happenings at our home with detailed cards! She always sends us a plethora of photos which help us feel like we're not that far away!”
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.
“Colton did a great job!! One of my dogs is a big barker and Colton has a good touch with hyper dogs. He’s always on time and uses the 30 minute drop-in fully to servicing the dog. I would recommend him for future visits.”
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

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.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
