“Monika took fabulous care of our 3 pups. She was very caring, responsible, and sent lots of pictures. We couldn’t have been happier with how everything went. We’ll definitely ask her back to care for our fur babies again.”


“Janiellee is AMAZING. I am so glad I found her for my anxious dog. She was willing and able to do the meet and greet to go over everything, taking time out of her day. She was prompt and prepared on the day of dog sitting and was able to handle the two anxious dogs with no problems. The house was well maintained and she was respectful. I cannot say enough nice things about her. We plan to use her in the future and feel comfortable with our experience in our house with our dogs.”


“Haley took care of our pets and we appreciated all the photos while we were away. It allowed us to feel at ease knowing they were ok and she was able to spend some time with them, especially our pup who cannot be left out of the cage when alone.”


“I hired Rebecca for House Sitting and she went above and beyond in terms of time spent with pups and at the house, was so very accommodating. She sent pics plus updates and walked them also and spent time outside in the yard. Exceeded my expectations. I have 2 senior dachshunds who love attention and snuggles -and really still have a lot of energy. They weren't wound up with pent up anxiety when I returned home or stir crazy to me, which is often the case after I've been away -- Instead they were perfectly content, resting and maybe even hoping to see Rebecca! I've already mentioned pre-booking for future weekends if she'll have us!”


“Lee was great with my pups! He earned their trust very fast and spent a lot of quality time with them. He sent me many photos and videos, and updated my constantly so there was never a worry when I was away! I will 100% book again. :)”


“Mary and Connie are amazing! They are kind, loving and thoughtful people this shines through from the moment you meet them. My Vanella Beans is very sensitive to people if she doesn't like or trust someone she will bark and BARK; not the case with Mary and Connie she was relaxed and calm following them around. That was the PAW of approval I needed. I had forgotten about the holiday prior to leaving and needed to refill a script for Nella and didn't get a chance to pick it up, however Connie was great and stopped by the vet and picked it up for me! Both made sure to text with pics and updates on Nella. As many of you are aware when you travel getting home can mean the start of more work after a long trip. Not the case everything was clean!! Sheets had been laundered and back on our bed, floors swept, dishes done, house dusted! BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! Thank you so much Mary & Connie!”


“Whitney was fantastic! My dog never cuddles with sitters, but he did with her! He felt so comfortable with her and she shared many updates and photos! Highly recommend!!!”


About: I recently graduated USF with an animal biology degree and have been around animals since I was little. I have been petsitting for several years. I have experience fostering puppies and kittens for the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. I was also a puppy raiser for Southeastern Guide Dogs. I have my own pets as well. So I have experience with all different animals and ages. I have a very flexible schedule. I am typically available any times throughout the week and most weekends. Let me know what times you would need and I am happy to accommodate. I am able to take your dog on however long of a walk you’d like. I can play fetch/games or cuddle with them. Whatever they need.

“Michele was great. I was a little nervous because Angel just lost his brother and is having separation anxiety. She was very good with him ans stayed and comforted him. We will definitely use her again.”


“Rochelle was very communicative and friendly! She sent multiple photos through out her stay which was appreciated. She did exactly what was asked and took great care of our dog. Thank you Rochelle! :)”


“Becky is a Doggy sitter SuperStar! She is extremely attentive to my fur babies. She keeps me regularly updated with pics and videos which makes me feel so secure when I am away. We just absolutely love Becky!!! She has a sincere love for pets, I am so thankful we found a responsible and friendly as Becky!”


“Niko is AMAZING! We needed a dog sitter very, very last minute. Niko was so accommodating! Our big boys are a handful. They love to jump, give kisses and sit in your lap. It can be overwhelming for some, but not Niko. He came in and instantly connected with both of them. We received updates and lots of photos! We definitely will work with Niko again.”


“When Melanie came to the meet and greet, the dogs were all over her. They loved her. She also charmed me and my girlfriend during over meeting. She sent us photos and a video while we were gone and we could see they were very happy. A lovely young lady that I will use over and over!”


About: I grew up assisting my mom with her petsitting business and I always knew I would work with animals. I started volunteering at my local animal shelter right out of high school, and went on to work at the SPCA full-time as an animal caretaker for several years. I started my own petsitting business in 2020. I provide care for animals of all sizes and species. I offer overnight stays, multiples visits per day, and in certain cases will bring dogs to my home. I have experience medicating animals such as giving insulin shots, “pilling” cats/dogs, etc. I work from home, so my schedule allows for full flexibility when it comes to petsitting. Your pets will always have my full attention while they’re in my care. If I stay at your home, I would follow whatever routine your pets have. I live in a gated townhome community with my boyfriend and our two very dog-friendly cats, Butters and Owen. Your pup would get several walks a day and is welcome to sleep in bed with us.

About: Hi, my name is Alyssa and I have over 10 years of pet care experience. I’m currently an ER nurse and love to take care of pets in my free time! I have a golden retriever of my own who enjoys lots of long walks and play time. I have a fenced yard, perfect for playing fetch or getting some energy out. I have experience in puppy training and crate training! I can do drop ins or boarding in my house and am super flexible! Let me know how I can take care of your fur baby :) I currently work 3 days a week as an emergency room nurse. My significant other is home when I am not! I am free on all my days off :) I have a golden retriever of my own who would love a friend/friends! I have a 2 story home with a fenced yard, perfect for play! I can easily crate train and work with puppies if needed! I can let them out to potty and feed whenever needed.

Palm River-Clair Mel pet parents share their Rover experiences
Casey was amazing! Our dog Bailey isn't usually friendly with new people but Casey had not trouble caring for her. During the meet-and-greet, Casey listened carefully to all our instructions and followed through perfectly. She also sent us pictures throughout her stay, and it was clear Bailey was happy and comfortable. Casey is amazing at what she does-we've already told her we'd love for her to watch Bailey during our next vacation, and we've recommended her to a couple of other families as well!

Chey was fantastic with my dog. She took really good care of her. Even though she watched her for two days, she took her on multiple walks, played fetched with her, took her to a dog park, and even put out her splash pad for her enjoy. I would recommend her again and will be using her in future.

Malik was INCREDIBLE!! Not only did he accommodate my request on short notice, but he was happy to help. He gave me updates during the stay, sent the cutest pictures of the pups, and was attentive to the dogs needs. To top it all off, the dogs absolutely LOVED him. I would 100% book again!

Kasella was extremely cummunicative with me and patient/loving with my baby girl, Zoey. I can not thank her enough for how much she put my mind at ease. This was my first time leaving her with someone other than family and friends and I would definitely use Kasella's services again!!!!!!

James took care of our boy Argo while we visited family during Christmas. He is trustworthy and kind and will take great care of your pet. He stayed in my house overnight and I found everything exactly as I left it. He even brought in mail & packages which we really appreciated. I would recommend him and would use his services again.
