About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently share my home with four rescue pets—two dogs and two cats. One of my dogs is deaf, and both have anxiety, so I’ve learned that patience, consistency, and earning an animal’s trust are far more important than expecting instant affection. Because of my own pets, I’m especially comfortable caring for shy, anxious, rescue, senior, and special-needs animals. I understand the importance of sticking to routines, reading body language, and making each pet feel safe and secure while their family is away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll meet them where they are. I’m attentive to details, comfortable following feeding schedules and medication instructions, and I’ll send plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in caring hands. My goal isn’t just to keep your pets safe—it’s to make sure they feel loved, understood, and as comfortable as possible until you’re home again. I work full-time during regular business hours, so I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, as well as overnight stays in your pet’s home on select weekends each month. I keep my availability up to date on Rover, so you’ll always know when I’m available. When I commit to caring for your pets, you can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and respectful of your home’s routine. Because I offer care in your pet’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll carefully follow your feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and any house rules you have. I understand that every pet has different needs, whether they’re energetic, anxious, senior, or simply creatures of habit. I’ll treat both your home and your pets with the same care and respect I give my own. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and if I ever notice anything out of the ordinary, I’ll communicate with you right away so you always have peace of mind.

“Alyssa was amazing! both my cats were taken care of so well despite their medications, issues, and all the other obstacles that kept happening during this trip. I felt at ease knowing she was there with them while i was away. I will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you so much!”

“We were a little uneasy using the Rover app for the first time but needed a last minute sitter for our dog and cat. Linda was amazing and exceeded expectations. She took great care of our animals, communicated with us and followed up multiple times throughout the visit. Our dog was a little timid at first but quickly warmed up to Linda and loved the attention. Thank you and we will definitely book again ❤️”

About: As a recently retired Pinellas County teacher, I now have the flexibility to give your pets the time, attention and dependable care they deserve. I have owned dogs throughout my life and currently share my home with my two cats, Max and Mya. I especially enjoy helping pets stay happy and comfortable in their own familiar surroundings. As a teacher, I built my career on being dependable, patient, organized, and trustworthy. Those same qualities make me a caring and attentive pet sitter. I understand that every pet has its own routine, and I will follow your instructions carefully to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages at every visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and well cared for. I know how much our pets mean to us because mine are family too. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a recently retired teacher, I have a very flexible schedule and can often accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy keeping pets on their regular routines whenever possible and will work with you to provide dependable care that fits your schedule. Advance notice is always appreciated, but I will do my best to accommodate last-minute requests when I’m available. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay on their normal routine. When caring for your pet, I will follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines. I will treat your home with respect and your pet with patience, kindness, and plenty of attention. Safety is my top priority. I’ll always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure and will provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.

About: I have lived in a pet loving home nearly my entire life, from cats and dogs to fish and snakes. This passion has led me to volunteer at Pet Pal Animal Shelter, a no-kill shelter, and work at Dogism Dog Daycare & Training as my first job! These combined have blessed me with a wealth of experience taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I work full-time, until 5 pm, Monday through Friday. Weekends are almost always available for me. Keeping my schedule separated between my full time work and pet caring ensures that your pet will have my full attention! Being entrusted to care for a pet at a client's home is never something I take lightly. I have experience giving medication, managing high-energy dogs, and cleaning up after pet messes, all with respect for the spaces they and their owners occupy.

About: I own 5 dogs myself: 1 German Shepard, 1 Boxer, 1 chihuahuas, and 2 mutts. I also own a long hair cat who was a stray we found, and a 2 year old ferret. I know how to feed all these animals, do litter, take small and big dogs on walks as well as play with them to get the energy out that is needed. I’ve dog sat in the past and been doing it for a while. My family and I are involved with foster dogs, so I can be around many different breeds and be okay with them. I know how to clip nails as well as even bath them if that is ever something that is needed. I also can give a good brushing if needed with a long haired cat or dog. I’m very flexible with what I can do, I do have a full time job and in college, so as long as I can leave and come back after a few hours i’m basically there as much as needed. I have 5 dogs of my own at the house, would prefer for the dog not to come as the shepard doesn’t like new dogs, especially bigger ones.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 7 years, and it’s something I’ve genuinely loved doing from the start. I grew up helping my family with pet sitting we’ve all been on Rover so I’ve had plenty of hand on experience. I’m really comfortable with all kinds of pets, from playful puppies who need extra time and energy to senior pets who need a little more patience and care. I’m all about making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy while their people are away. I also used to run a small reptile rescue, so while dogs and cats are my main focus, I’ve picked up a lot of useful skills when it comes to handling animals with different needs and personalities Pet care fits really well into my daily routine! I’m a full time college student, but my classes are scheduled in a way that keeps my mornings and afternoons free. I’m available every day of the week before 5 PM, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, drop ins, feedings, and just spending quality time with your pet. I’m super flexible and can usually adjust my schedule to fit what your pet needs When I’m caring for your pet in their own home, I always follow your instructions whether it’s feeding, walks, meds, or special routines. I know how much it means for them to stay comfortable and happy in their own space. I treat every home and pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.

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.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid, and that lifelong love of pets is part of who I am. As a mother and pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and nurturing to care for your furry family members. I’ve raised and cared for both cats and dogs, and currently share my home with Penny, my lovable German Shepherd/Akita mix—so I’m very comfortable with big dogs. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. As a stay-at-home mom with a child in Kindergarten, I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to offer quality pet care during the week. I’m available on Monday through Friday from 9am to 2pm—perfect for midday walks, drop-in visits, or spending time with your pets while you're at work or running errands. I am also available for weekend care. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine, and I truly enjoy the break it brings to my day. I’m committed to providing loving, reliable care during those hours and making sure your pets feel happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and respect for their space. I always follow instructions carefully and make sure your pets stay in their familiar, comfortable environment. I’m mindful of routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs your pet may have. As a reliable and responsible caregiver, I treat your home with the same care I’d want for my own. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I work hard to ensure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

“Athena and Richi are kind, thorough, and great at what they do. At first I was hesitant about using Rover over word-of-mouth sitters, but they turned my opinion around after the very first booking. I’ve booked them several times now. They’re the best you can get, would recommend to anyone.”

About: I have a love for all animals big, small, young and old. I have 4+ years of professional pet caring experience and currently volunteer at an animal rescue weekly. I have managed a pet resort which included care for animals that were just there for the day or sometimes weeks at a time. The types of animals included puppies, senior dogs/cats, and dogs/cats that just need a little extra understanding and love. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own and they have taught me that every single animal is different and truly understanding them isn’t something you learn in a book, you gain that knowledge by listening to them…and their humans of course! I am currently volunteering at an animal rescue and during the week I work with children in the afternoons. Emergencies happen, plans change and I am more than happy to help ease the stress that can come with finding care for your animals. While taking care of a dog in their own home, I know it is their space and I absolutely respect that. I do not interrupt the routine, and will do things just as they are done in their home so it is stress free.

About: There has always been at least one dog in my house to take care of. I can assure you that your pet will be loved and cared for with the same amount I give my own at home. I am pretty flexible and can make time for you and your pet. I will play with and take care of your pet as if they were my own. I take my dogs for walks or run around with them outside, I feed them when it’s time, and give them their medication if prescribed any. They also get lots of treats and cuddles!

About: Hello! I’ve pet sat for a variety of pets for 7+ years with different weight and medical needs. I also used to work at a Veterinary Hospital in kennel and boarding services. Washing and nail clipping services are available upon request. I love pets and will treat them as my very own spoiled child with lots of pictures, love, and allowed treats. I’m available to petsit throughout the week. Dog walking will be limited during weekdays. Longer stays gets an extended discount. I request all pets to be on regularly treated with flea medication. Let me know if your pet is leash broken and if they’re socialized! There’s multiple dog parks around the west coast for Florida and I’d love to be able to get your lovelies the best care possible. If you have any further questions, please feel free to send me a message! I currently work from home 8:30 am - 4:30pm and can adjust scheduling when needed. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. I am unable to house pets in my home but am happy to make frequent visits or stay in the clients home if required. I take pet safety and care seriously as there's nothing in this world more precious than ensuring pet comfort and care.

“Jodie is an amazing pet sitter. She took great care of all our cats. We have elderly cats on different medicines and are finicky eaters. Jodie did great with their long and complicated schedule. Jodie also left the house cleaner than we left it. Jodie was great at giving daily updates with videos and photos which gave us great peace of mind while away on our trip.”

“Jennifer is excellent! She did the basics no problem- arriving on time, following the feeding schedule, playing, and sending photos. More importantly, Jennifer was very much tuned into our cat. She noted that our kitty might be having separation anxiety while we were gone. She also closely monitored food and water consumption, letting us know of any irregularities. Definitely highly recommend!”

Jackie D.

“She was so wonderful with my precious pet and she watered my plants. Definitely use her again. Great with my cat. Arrived early and did everything that my cat needed, including playing with him. Fantastic!”

About: I've been caring for animals all my life. Dogs, hamsters and birds were part of my household growing up. My purpose and passion is to care for animals in whatever capacity I can. From dogs and cats to birds, ferrets and reptiles. I have worked in the veterinary field for 30 + years. One of those hospitals was an avian and exotic hospital. I am a certified veterinary assistant although generally preferred the front desk aspect. I have chosen to leave that field and focus on pets in their home. I love pet sitting. I've been doing it on the side for close to 30years. I particularly love senior pets and cats. I love the close relationships I develop with the animals in my care. I will love and care for you pet as I do my own. This is my full time employment. I am available to drop in to your home as much as 2-3 times a day as needed. I do not board in my home and will occasionally be available for overnight stays. I will come to your home and follow your instructions to the letter. I will keep the space clean and tidy and care for a few plants as well. Your pet will receive lots of loving attention from me. Lots of snuggles if they so choose or playtime or just general company. I respect all pets boundaries.
