About: Hi! My name is Isabel and I truly love animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family and I treat every dog like part of my own family. I provide a safe, calm and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy walking, playing and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I always send photos and updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness and comfort are always my priority. During the week I am available in the mornings and early afternoons (8 AM – 4:30 PM). I attend classes from 5:30 PM to 8:15 PM, but I am available again in the evenings after that if needed. On weekends I have more flexibility and can work mornings or afternoons. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. When I stay in a pet owner’s home, I follow their routines and instructions carefully to keep their pets relaxed and happy. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, just like they were my own.

“Raquel was amazing with my dog! She was so patient with my dog (who is completely blind) and most importantly I could tell she genuinely liked her! I have already re-booked her and would honestly be heartbroken if she was ever not available.”
“Shayla has been absolutely amazing with my dog! I’ve had to make a few last-minute requests, and she has always been so accommodating and comes through for me every time. She’s reliable, caring, and very communicative, which I really appreciate. I love that she keeps me updated and sends pictures during the walks—it gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is being well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust and feel completely comfortable leaving my fur baby with. I highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I’m a college student at UT and I have experience taking care of both dogs and cats. I can help with walks, feeding, refilling water, litter boxes, and drop-in visits. I’m also happy to spend time with them so they’re not alone while you’re away. I’m reliable, easy to reach, and good about sticking to your pet’s routine so everything feels normal for them. I pay attention to what each pet needs and make sure they’re comfortable and taken care of. I can also send updates or pictures if you’d like. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m always willing to work around what you need. I’m a college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m usually available during the day between classes and most afternoons/evenings, as well as weekends. I can do walks, feedings, and check-ins, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I take pet care seriously and always try to make sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I follow any instructions you leave closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and routines. I’m respectful of your home and will keep things clean and secure. I pay attention to how each pet is acting so I can make sure they’re doing well, and I’ll reach out if anything seems off. I also make sure doors are secure and pets are always supervised during visits.
“Yvonne was extremely patient and loving to my 3 fur babies. She was able to calm my doggies, and they trusted her enough to let her take them for a walk. We will definitely use her again.”
“Christian was wonderful! Very friendly and patient with our dogs upon meeting them. Was able to help us with last minute walking needs. We will definitely continue to use his services and would absolutely recommend to others 😄”
About: All my life i’ve just loved animals. They bring so much joy and happiness into someone’s day. I believe that I can take great care of your precious pup whenever your in need. My family and I currently have 2 french bulldogs myself, one full of energy and my other is very relaxed and down to earth. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to take care of them while you are away on vacation or just out of town and enjoying yourself. Don’t worry tho, You came to the right person!! I’m a student at the University of Tampa! I’m best available Tuesday/Thursdays. However through discussion I’d possibly be able to make Monday/Wednesday/Friday work. Especially through the first two weeks into the semester starting Jan 19th to February 2nd! I currently have a 2 French bull dogs who are two are just 2 different characters! One is less maintenance, living to sleep and hang around all day while the other is super rambunctious. He loves belly rubs, frequently gets bursts of energy w/ the zoomies , loves treats and lots of attention so my family and always do our best to keep him active and in shape; Walks, Carrides, Jazz Music, Tv and Activities with toys tend to tire him right out. With a puppy, I know it can be a struggle but with the right methods, everything will slowly fall in to place. We of course always make sure he is well fed and constantly taken out.
About: I have over a year of hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, along with 5 years experience dog walking and pet sitting for clients. Working with animals every day taught me how to handle different temperaments and energy levels while making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need extra patience or specialized care. I’m comfortable and familiar with administering medications, following special feeding instructions, and keeping up with specific routines and care needs. Whether your pet enjoys lots of playtime and walks or prefers a calmer environment and quiet attention, I always try to make sure they feel relaxed and happy while you’re away. I make it a priority to provide dependable care, updates (photos and videos included), and plenty of attention so owners can feel confident their babies are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already have consistent experience working around dogs and structured care environments. I’m generally flexible throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, and I’m comfortable adjusting my schedule based on a pet’s needs. I’m used to early mornings, midday check-ins, and evening care routines from my time working at a doggy daycare, so I’m able to stay consistent with feeding, walks, and medication schedules. I prioritize reliability, so once I commit to a booking, I make sure I’m fully available and on time for every visit. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize following all instructions exactly as given to maintain the pet’s normal routine and comfort. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure before walks and that pets are supervised at all times. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can respond quickly if anything seems off or if they need extra reassurance. I also keep the environment calm, clean, and stress free, and I respect the client’s home by leaving everything as I found it. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and make sure owners feel confident their pet is safe and well cared for.
“Joycemar was more than I could've ever expected. I was at peace and enjoyed my trip out of the country knowing Kai was in good hands. I received daily updates and videos. Will definitely book with Joycemar again.”
“Sophia is the best! She was so accommodating to my last minute request and showed up exactly on time. She took the best care of my sweet boy and was so patient with him! Sophia also took the time to take pictures/ videos and gave me a detailed update of how my dog was doing! I would definitely recommend her and look forward booking with her again in the future!”
About: Coming from a family that loves animals, I’ve always been around and taken care of pets. My experience has been walking/petsitting for family and friends, mostly dogs but occasionally cats. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I have a very flexible work schedule. I am currently a student in flight school, which only requires short daily in-person commitment, so I am very flexible with timing. Most of my studying is done online so I am able to care for your pet at any time it is convenient for you. I am unable to provide care in my own apartment due to its size, but I am very clean and respectful of clients homes when visiting for care. I am a great communicator and will respond quickly as well as follow any requests or instructions you make.
About: I have been around animals my whole life. Growing up, we mainly had cats and dogs, but in recent years we have expanded to fish, birds, and frogs! At the moment, my family has 2 cats, 2 parakeets, and about a million fish. I started pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors as a kid, and now I try to pet sit whenever I am home from college. I am also the primary care taker of my little home zoo. I’m currently home for the summer, and I have really flexible hours! I have several vacations planned for the summer, so I do not currently have a job lined up, which means more time to play with your pets! I am currently not able to care for your pets in my home as my cats are not very accepting of new animals. At your home, I will work with you to learn what is best for your pets! If you have a fenced in yard, that’s great! If not, no worries.
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, and pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy! 🐾 I recently moved from Kentucky to Tampa, and I’m so excited to meet all the amazing pets (and their people!) in my new community. Whether your pet needs some extra love, playtime, walks, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’d be happy to help. I can’t wait to make some new four-legged friends here in Tampa! 🐶🐱❤️ I’m currently pretty flexible and would love to work with your schedule! I’m available for pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m happy to discuss specific days and times based on your pet’s needs. Just a friendly note that I currently don’t offer pet sitting in my own home. I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in their familiar environment and routine.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palm River-Clair Mel
Dwayne is an awesome choice when it comes to taking care of your fur baby! Sometimes life happens, and I was incredibly grateful that Dwayne was available for a last minute booking. He already remembered the specific care Kingston needed and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done exactly the way I wanted. He was always punctual with walks and meals and gave extra attention to my senior Doberman, Kingston. It’s clear that Dwayne genuinely cares about the pets he looks after, and that peace of mind is priceless. There’s nothing better than coming home to a happy, relaxed, and well cared for pet. I highly recommend Dwayne to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Kingston gives him two paws up! 🐾

The average cost for Dog Walking in Palm River-Clair Mel on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 River-Clair Mel. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Palm River-Clair Mel.

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. 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Palm River-Clair Mel. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
