About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was seven - first for my family’s two energetic beagles, then for other dogs in our neighborhood. Each dog I’ve cared for gets all the tender, loving care that they could ask for! What You Get: Peace of mind that your dog is getting loved and spoiled What Your Dog Gets: Two play buddies, a 0.25 acre lot to run around, and lots of pets and cuddles If you’re going on vacation, your dog deserves one too! I’m a stay at home mom with the perfect amount of time to care for your pet. Available on weekday and weekends, and very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times! I have a large, fenced in backyard, lots of toys, and two friendly dogs to keep your dog exercised and highly entertained. For overnight stays, we ask that your dog be crate trained. If they’re more comfortable sleeping independently in their own bed, we’re happy to accommodate that!
“Jennifer took fantastic care of my cats! They warmed up to her immediately, which speaks volumes about her kind and gentle nature. She is incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and a natural with pets. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter, and I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“Colton was very kind and caring and responsive. Watching my two big playful pups. He let me know when he was coming and going every stop I had scheduled. I'd definitely recommend him”
“Amazing! Needed a last minute check-in for our little pack and she took care of our babies, made their meals, took them for play, and tucked them back in. She took a bunch of photos and they looked so happy. Will absolutely book again.”
“Victoria was wonderful. I was sent photos of him and I could quickly determine how he was feeling and doing. My Dewey needs love and touch he loves to be held and just near you and she provided all that and more. When I returned Dewey was calm and welcoming. Such a relief to know he was in good hands..”
About: I have had dogs, birds, hamsters, rabbits cats, ferrets starting around age 10. I love all animals and will care for yours as if they were my own. I have two cats. A Torti and a Tuxedo. I also have 4 parrots. I love them all equally and have a special and individual relationship with each one so I understand how to care for different personalities and needs. I keep the birds separated in the house for safety and comfort and spend time with them all so they feel special as their personalities require it. I would care for your babies the same way. If crate training were part of your pets need I would follow accordingly. I would care for your pets in your home. I Would pop in and spend time with them for as long or frequent as as requested
“Trinity was amazing! While I was home for Thanksgiving she did two drop in visits a day for 5 days to check on my cat Jax. Was very communicative and sent me updates each visit as well as photos and videos. She even offered to complete tasks that were not on my list of things to do while I was gone which was greatly appreciated! Definitely will be using Trinity in the future!”
About: I've pet sitted up North for years, a recent move South has me looking to do the same. Dogs and cats were what I did most but I've had a wide variety of pets myself. I am waitressing currently, so I do shift work. It gives me a lot of free time to do this. My kids are grown so I have more time to spend with fur babies. I have stayed at several peoples homes over the years and hung out/walked/played with and kept safe their fur babies so they could travel without worry.
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
“Kelly is always amazing with our babies! She takes great care of them and we feel good knowing that they are happy while we are away. She really cares about our cats in a way that we know they are loved while we are out of town! She follows all of their care instructions accurately, spends time playing with them, gives them cuddles, and gets the cutest pictures 🥰 thank you so much Kelly for allowing us to feel comfortable going away from our babies knowing they are in capable hands❤️❤️”
About: I’ve grown up around all types of dogs and have over 10 years of experience dog-sitting, walking, and providing in-home care for different breeds, including German Shepherds, Dobermans, Corgis, Labs, Doodles, Pomeranians, and more. I enjoy keeping dogs happy and entertained through walks, playtime, and basic training. Most of all, I give every animal I care for plenty of love, attention, and patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I have a flexible lifestyle, and can be available to take care of any and all dogs from 8AM-8PM, or other times if that is what is needed. Before I moved out, I had two corgis that I took sole care of. Now I have taken in a Pomeranian that I care for. Before I got to Florida, I babysat two labs at least one weekend every month. This included feeding, walking, giving medicine, playtime, training and endless hugs and kisses. As well as taking care of the labs, I cared for a German Shepherd for years that I trained, walked, fed, gave medicine and took to vet appointments. I know how and what to do in a lot of different stressful situations with dogs and all different habits and personalities. Most of all, I love all dogs and treat them all as my own.
About: On top of being a vet assistant for almost 10 years now, I have my own 5 pets that I take care of, each with their particular set of needs. I know all about having a specific routine so I’ll make sure things are done exactly as requested! I have two crazy pit mixes at home, but I also had my family Yorkie that I would take care of up until she passed back in 2025. I also have 3 cats, one of them being special needs (CH, IYKYK). I currently work 10 hour shifts, Monday-Thursday as a vet assistant. I normally go home during lunch anyway to let my own dogs out, so I could always try to accommodate extra time to let your dogs out as well if needed. Since I’m very limited on time during those days, I’d have to be relatively close to my job (10-15 min) to be able to provide midday care for everyone. Weekends (including Friday) I have more flexibility though, as my boyfriend would be home to take care of my pets while I take care of yours! I know a pet’s home is the most comfortable environment for them, so I will do my best to keep the comfort level while you are away. I can walk wherever/however long they need, provide adequate play, and just spend as much time as possible so that they never feel alone. I can also do any additional tasks around the home, such as light cleaning and taking care of any plants you may have (watering, etc). I’ll always make sure to tidy up before your arrival, that way you have more time to decompress without worrying about cleaning up after me :)
“Melissa was fantastic! She came 3 times a day. She kept in touch, sent photos, asked questions, and cleaned up some mishaps that I felt bad she had to take care of. Very professional and caring about taking care of our 3 little dogs. They had never had a stranger come in before so sometimes weren't very cooperative but she handled everything very well while we were away. We would hire her again.”
About: I have raised three children, several cats and three German Shepherds. I love animals and believe they are the fur babies of the family. I will love and protect your pet while in my care. I am newly retired, my schedule is open and available for any care needed. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s). Thank you! I will take care of your pet like family and ensure the safety of your pet and and your home. I am cautious and dependable.
“Daria is reliable and so friendly! Her love for dogs is evident and she cares for my pup so well. She updates me with messages and photos. Definitely will be a repeat customer! Thank you, Daria!”
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Oldsmar is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,207 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oldsmar. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oldsmar. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
