“This was my first time using a dog walker, and it was a great experience! She was reliable, professional, and took wonderful care of my dog. Communication was excellent, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pet was in good hands. We would definitely recommend her and will happily use her services again.”
“Melissa is doing a great job with Amelia. Amelia is nervous about walking with someone new and Melissa is very confident and patient with Amelia which both Amelia and I appreciate very much!”
“Mia has been such a dependable and caring walker for both my boys! I trust her completely with both of my dogs! Thank you Mia for being such a great dog walker for our family!”
“Christine began walking my 10 month pup this week. She's been wonderful! Christine is very punctual, notifies me when the walk is complete and sends pictures. Christine is very caring and I'm sure my pup looks forward to their walks!”
About: I have had a pet in my home since I was born. The first dog I remember was Ginger, then PJ, then Sparkie, then Jenna and Millie, Anja and Argus, then Bonnie and Clyde, and now we have our very friendly buddy, Gustav. They ranged from a miniature Schnauzer and Jack Russels to Rottweilers and German Shepherds. My closest friend's dad bred and trained German Shepherds while I was in high school. I was surrounded by a pack most of my life and loved it. I owned a local pup friendly pub for 14 years and made it a point to great every dog that came in. I am hoping for the chance to see some of those dogs again! My current schedule is very flexible, so I can focus on the pet's care when they need it. I understand that different pets require different things at different times and I am able and willing to accommodate with a bit of forewarning. I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly 10 month old puppy who loves new company. He and I go for walks around our neighborhood daily and we do outings to the park a few times a week. I have 2 cats that are indifferent to dogs and they have their own separate space so they can be alone if they want. I deep clean the litter boxes at least twice a week and would be happy to do the same for your kitties at your home. (Access to a hose outside is very helpful for this) I have room for crates and pets are not left outside unattended. I am very vigilant about picking up poop and want to keep a clean yard for the pups to play in.
“Jillian is amazing! My boys love her… even the one who can be standoffish warmed up quickly to her. She’s incredibly reliable and thorough in providing updates on walks. I’m super grateful she’s available to take care of my pups and highly recommend her for any pet care! She’s awesome!”
About: For me, the joys of pet ownership came a little later in life. I grew up in a home with my parents and 3 older brothers. My mom deduced that a house with four boys and a grown man didn't need any more animals! In the 90s, I worked with the local Humane Society and was overwhelmed by love and empathy that I felt for the animals waiting for adoption. Since then, I've jumped at any chance to walk or care for the pets of my friends and family. There's nothing like the feeling I get when a shy or frightened animal lets its guard down and begins to trust. It melts my heart! My wife and I currently live with Molly Mae. She's a gorgeous 14 year old Chihuahua / Italian Greyhound mix and she's a walking, licking, mood-lifting machine! I’m currently creating artwork from my home studio where I can keep my Molly Mae with me all day. I make my own hours and can respond to pet sitting calls and bookings any time of day. I live in a quiet, gated community which is ideal for walking dogs safely. The surrounding neighborhoods are quiet with very little traffic. I have also had many mural jobs where I have been granted access to client’s homes and businesses and have earned a solid trustworthy reputation.
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was a child, and my love for animals has only grown over the years. In August 2023, I welcomed two cats into my family, which has given me firsthand experience caring for both dogs and cats and understanding their unique personalities and needs. Over the years, I've helped neighbors, friends, and family by caring for their beloved pets while they were away. Whether it's feeding, playtime, walks, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand that they often need extra patience, compassion, and attention. I'm comfortable administering medication, assisting with mobility, and providing specialized care, including changing diapers when needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining the routines they're familiar with. When it comes to walks, I'm happy to get outside no matter the weather. Rain or shine, hot or cold, I'm committed to making sure your dog gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they need. As a non-smoker with a flexible schedule, I'm able to accommodate a variety of care needs and provide dependable, attentive service. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently not working, so this would be my full-time job! I am extremely flexible and am able to move things around in my schedule to fit your needs. Happy to work around your schedule! At this time, I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes through house sitting and drop-in visits. I believe many pets feel happiest and most comfortable in their familiar environment, where they can stick to their normal routines and experience less stress while you're away. My priority is always your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being. I carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and household rules. I'm comfortable crating dogs when needed, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, and providing any additional care your pet requires. Whether your dog enjoys multiple walks throughout the day, your cat loves interactive playtime, or your senior pet needs a little extra patience and attention, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, enrichment, and companionship while maintaining the routine they're used to. I also understand that inviting someone into your home requires a great deal of trust. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own. You can count on me to be dependable, communicate regularly, and send photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, calm, and loving experience for your pet while giving you complete peace of mind during your time away.
“Martha is amazing! Wiggles is like velcro to here mama and she happily went with Martha and got excited when I told her Martha was coming. She was also gracious in accepting me as a client when I had covid, very kind and brave. I highly recommend Martha for walks or boarding. Thanks Martha!”

“Rebecca was awesome! She left my a very detailed note of what my dog did before, during, and after the walk. She took a very cute photo and I can tell she gave great care to her. My dog can’t wait to see Rebecca again, we’ll definitely be using her in the future and referring her to my friends!”
“Adriana has made me feel so much more comfortable getting a brand new puppy. I had no idea the work it would intale. Because of work schedules finding her is a blessing and she texts me tips and advice. I plan on scheduling her as much as I can!!!”
“Regina is a very experienced dog walker/pet sitter. Her professionalism is apparent from her first visit. She is not someone who walks dogs to make a few bucks...this is a business she takes very seriously. My dog very much enjoys her daily visits and is very excited when Regina arrives. She makes us aware of any concerns she may have with my dogs heath or if there is any concerns at my house during the visit, which gives me peace of mind. I recommend Regina to anyone looking for a professional and reliable caregiver for their pet.”
About: Being a Registered Nurse, I know how important it is to care for patients. However, pets need the same caring environment that a patient gets. I am a genuine, nurturing, pet lover of any animal. Our pet(s) are not only a "furry" animal in our homes, they are what bonds families together and bring joy to each and every one of us. I have over 10 personal years of caring for pets. I've had dogs from the size of a yorkie to a great dane, cats, & fishes. There is no stereotyping here whether you are a fish, cat, bird, dog and etc. I am open to walk ins and walking your pet(s). I am also trained at administering medications (no injections). Each and everyone of our pets deserves to have unconditional support, care and love. Our pets are family and not just a part of the family. I work full-time with a rotating schedule, so I’m most available on weekends and one weekday each week. Feel free to reach out—I do my best to accommodate requests whenever possible! I understand following detailed instructions on how to care for your pet(s) is key. I am strict with maintaining proper exercise and diet with my own dog to provide longevity, therefore that same respect will be given to your pet(s).
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, and I’m very protective of my own girl, Niya. I know how hard it is to trust just anyone with your dog, so I treat every pup with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me. I recently moved and I am new to Clearwater / Tampa area and my schedule is very flexible. I am also open to working with your schedules. Your pets needs are very important to me. I can do walks, play time, feeding and anything you may need you may ask and we will work something out.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Palm Harbor. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Palm Harbor. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
