“This was my first time Rachel took care of my dog, and I will definitely book her again. She took so good care of Snum. She understood my dogs sometimes weird behavior and worries (thunder, rain, wind etc.) she kept me informed every day, and she even cleaned my kitchen! I never worried for a second leaving Snum and my house in her care.”

“Angela did a wonderful job. She was reliable, communicative, sent pictures and did awesome with our 3 animals. We returned to a clean house and happy puppies. 😊 we'll definitely be making her our regular sitter when we head out of town. Thanks Angela!”

“Jen has been so kind to our two animals. She has been great with their special needs of pilling and monitored feeding. When I returned home after my dog and cat spending a week with Jen, they were happy and healthy. 10/10 I will rebook with Jen.”

“Laura was fantastic. She was easy to communicate with and took really great care of Yogi. He has separation anxiety but when I got home, Yogi was calm, happy, and had been well cared for. The house looked exactly how I left it, and Yogi was relaxed and clearly had a great time. It’s not easy to find someone you can trust with both your home and your dog, but Laura earned that trust. She’s responsible, kind, attentive, accommodating, and trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking her again.”

“Rhoda is such a kind and reliable sitter! She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My pup was well cared for and I will continue booking with her.”


“Amy was awesome! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, but our pup seemed to have a nice weekend! Amy was incredibly easy to communicate with and left the house in great condition--she even washed the sheets for us! I wouldn't hesitate to use Amy as a sitter again!”

About: I’ve been taken care of animals since I was born. It started with fish, and soon became ducks. Then I had to have a cat, and now I also have four dogs. Additionally, I have plenty of experience from dog sitting for my neighbors since I was 13. Currently I have an open schedule. I’d like to get a part time job in the near future. But for now I can attend to your furry friends needs whenever. When I watch furry animals my goal is to always make sure they are healthy and happy. I approach all situations calmly no matter the severity of the problem. This is definitely important when it comes to caring for pets. I’ve had my fair share of my own shoes eaten, so I understand how frustrating it can be, but I also know that getting very mad and screaming at your pet does absolutely nothing. I am very caring, and I love to make sure my pups are spoiled. I will do the same for yours.
“Ayala was amazing with our dog and left our house exactly like we left it!! She was very attentive to our dog and made her feel relaxed and safe in our house! She also went above and beyond helping us out with watering our yard and plants! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Karen is phenomenal! She took such great care of our dog while we were gone for 5 days. She provided us with fantastic communication, very trustworthy, kind and fantastic with pets! We highly recommended Karen 😁”

“Sydney is great! My almost 16 year old, medically complex, dog was in good hands with her. Sydney was able to provide wound care and medication management for Zoey and took great care of our home. We will definitely be booking Sydney again.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for multiple-dog households, providing both pet and home care for families during long weekends and extended trips. My responsibilities include feeding, walking, administering medications if needed, and maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for the pets. I take pride in treating every dog as if they were my own—keeping them happy, healthy, and loved while their owners are away. I currently am a graduate assistant at the university of tampa in the exercise and nutrition sciences masters. I only work about 4 hours a day during the week and have night classes on tuesday. But i can come and go as I please with my job they are very flexible with everything. I treat all animals with respect and owners with their homes. I will keep the animals at there homes and walk them around there unless the owner say otherwise to take them out somewhere else.
“Patricia is kind, thoughtful, and wonderful with my dogs! One of my pups is a very nervous girl but on the first night she felt comfortable climbing under the covers to sleep with her new sitter. I was provided many updates and pictures, and she responded quickly when I reached out to her. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing that my girls were very well cared for. We will be seeing Patricia again & again!”

“Ambria was great! She watched our dog for the past two days, and she did an amazing job! She was reliable, caring, and made sure our pup was well taken care of and happy. We truly appreciated the updates and the extra attention she gave. It’s clear she loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

Sahily watched our Cavalier King Charles rescue this weekend while we were out of town. Riley is new to our family after being rescued in July 2025. I was very nervous about leaving my sweet Velcro dog because he’s very apprehensive when I leave him. I knew it was essential to do this eventually, but I must admit I almost canceled my weekend plans. Sahily provided comfort, tenderness, and reassurance to Riley . She communicated to us regularly with photos and videos of my sweet pup, quickly alleviating my anxiety and apprehension about leaving him. She ensured he was active, fed him on schedule, and gave him with lots of love which helped reduce Riley‘s separation, anxiety. I will undoubtedly let Sahily take care of Riley again. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Sahily to watch your precious dog or other animals. She is the best!

Ayala took great care of our pups and home while we were away. Zoey has complex medical needs (almost 16 yrs old!) with wound care, medication administration, and wears a neck cone. Ayala took excellent care of her and her needs. Would definitely book her again!

Jayden was awesome! She watched our two sister pups for two weeks and did not miss a thing. Walked and fed them on time, every time. She left the house better than she found it and the girls were happy to see us but we could tell they were not stressed but happy. Great job!

Gretchen watched our dog and cat over a long weekend and did a fantastic job. Our pets loved her company, she was a great communicator, and she kept our house super tidy! 10/10! I can’t recommend Gretchen enough and we hope she is available next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you Gretchen for taking such good care of our pets!

Blair took wonderful care of my dog Ollie while pet sitting this past weekend. I received sweet pictures and updates about him while I was away and my house was well kept and clean upon my return as well! Highly recommend to anyone around the Tampa area who needs a quality dog sitter while they’re away!
