“Last week was my first week with Gina and I have nothing but positive things to say! My dog is a new rescue and she’s great with him. She does a great job and shares pictures daily. I’m super happy with the service.”
About: Experience with reactive dogs. Have worked with abused and neglected dogs as well. Caring of all pups and will treat like my own. I have also worked with dog behavioralists before so I’m capable to handle all types of dogs. I currently have a lot of flexibility within my days to walk, check-in, and play with anyone’s pups! Mornings, afternoons, and evenings can work for me most of the time. I care and respect any boundaries you put in place in your own home. I will follow all directions left for me. I can walk your dog, crate them, play with them, feed them, etc.
About: I have plenty of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and development level. I have grown up caring for dogs of my own. As an adult, I volunteered for a local humane society, caring for many dogs while preparing them for adoption. I’ve cared for senior dogs with health conditions and puppy’s that requires extra attention. I have been a foster mom to dogs of various ages in recent times and have two very friendly pups of my own that absolutely love other dogs. I work from home full-time, so I am available to give constant care and companionship to your pet while you are away. Lots of snuggles and potty breaks throughout the day to keep your pet content. I have a fenced in backyard that allows less active pets to soak up the sun. I live in an extremely pet friendly neighborhood that has plenty of trails for long walks for your pet.
About: Hello! I am very passionate about my love for animals and have many years of experience with taking care of dogs/cats. I have been on rover for 2 years and have been lucky enough to spend time with many dogs (please see pics for reference). I have two cats of my own and I understand that your pet is your child and deserves amazing care and affection. I am currently a nursing student looking to make some extra money and just spend some time with some fur babies! I am a student and have a pretty flexible schedule. I will ensure that my time with your pets is meaningful and that they get everything they need. They will be my priority in the time I spend with them 100%! If you were to welcome me into your home I would be very respectful of your belongings. There would be no need to worry! I’m very trustworthy, respectful and would do what I am asked and then leave :)
“Spencer was amazing. Great communication and went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was taken care of. I highly recommend using Spencer for any of your pet care!”
“We used Cynthia 3 yrs ago when my brother got married so when it was my sister's turn we knew exactly who we wanted... Cynthia. She had simply asked if anything had changed. She remembered everything (which was a blessing because we forgot to inform her... lol) She was excited to see Peach and Pepper again and I knew that they were excited to see her. Thank you Cynthia for taking such good care of your babies again. ❤️”
“Breanna is a good communicator. She also was quick to respond when I texted her. It was so nice to be able to take a day trip and know that our pup was taken care of.”
“Isabel was wonderful with our Holli! She provided us with pictures and a summary of each walk. Holli was excited to see her each day. We will definitely use Isabel again!”

About: Hello and thank you for taking time to read my profile. I have always loved animals, big and small. My personal experience started about twelve years ago with my beloved Doberman pinscher, Romeo. He passed at the end of last year but he brought so much love ever since I got him as a puppy. For now I have my fish tank friends but some day I would love to rescue my next pup! I am also currently fostering a torti cat whose owner was displaced during Hurricane Helene. Professionally, I have been offering drop ins and dog walks for friends and family for about the past year. I have experience with puppies, cats, animals with anxiety, special diets, crate training, and obedience training. I work full time but if you have wifi I am happy to work remotely at your home while I pet sit. Aside from that, evenings and weekends are open. I use an approach to know and understand my furry friend first. By meeting with you and your pet, we can discuss any special needs or how I can best help your pet enjoy their time with me. I do not use any corporal punishment ever. Behavior can be approached through positive reinforcement and redirection when needed. My goal is for both your pet and I to have a great time together in a safe environment. I am happy to communicate with you throughout my stay to keep you informed and at ease that they are in good hands with me.
About: With over 5 years of pet care and foster experience, I am dedicated to providing your furry friends with the love, attention and exercise they need. I have an understanding of various dog breeds and their specific needs, and will ensure each walk is safe and enjoyable. While I currently do not have any dogs, I have grown up with them throughout my life and have experience with several different breeds or all different ages. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate last minute requests and ensure that every pet receives consistent and loving care. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities is seamless because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they are well taken care of! I have a very spacious apartment with room for a large dog crate. My apartment complex is very dog friendly, there is a fenced in dog park as well as several walking paths that make dog walking very easy. I currently have no other pets in my home so I can provide all my attention to your pet!
About: Dogs have been part of my family since I can remember. I can’t imagine a life without them. I first started dog sitting for friends and family at a young age (13-19). While focusing on my career I took a break from dog sitting, before picking it back up to support close friends in NYC who always needed a hand - whether that be dog sitting for the weekend or popping in to check on their pup while they were at work. During my 5 years in NY I helped out with my in-law’s 6 dogs and now living in Tampa, I’ve adopted my own rescue pup. Maple is 2 years old and fully trained by me. She’s potty trained, knows commands such as sit, stay, lay down and even some fun tricks like high five and spin move. I’ve been working remotely for the past 2 years allowing me plenty of time to care for your pup! I’m also available at weekends and holidays. I have a large fenced in yard allowing plenty of outdoor play time or lazing in the sun. Additionally if preferred I can crate my dog, Maple, to allow for separate play times. Please note I only have one dog, Maple. On my profile there are two dogs listed, my sister-in-law’s dog Willow does not live with me.
About: I rescued my first dog off the side of the street when I was In college! I’ll love your pet like I love My own! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was A teenager and have trained several dogs in both Dallas and NJ - basic commands and basic social etiquette. I work in higher education so I’m free all summer long to give your pet the best care possible! My availability is open until mid august and then I only work till noon Mondays through Thursdays so I’m very much at home and hanging with the pups! I have A 6 year old black lab in house- so your pup will have someone to play with (and a crate full of bark box toys!) your dog will have a chance to utilize the turf dog park in my community, go on 1.5 mile walks, and have many potty breaks as I’m home all day and night! Marco is easy going and likes all dogs - he even shares the bed! I have A fenced in turf yard with space for the animals to relax. I live In a townhome. Please note- I live in a community with breed restrictions therefore, I am Unable to take in certain dogs for boarding (I love Them all, but have to follow the rules!)
About: As a dog lover for years, I have been used by friends and family to provide reliable care for their pups. I volunteer at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay as well. Back home I have a Westie and have had chocolate labs! I treat dogs as if they were my own child-it’s so important they feel safe and loved when their owners are away. I go beyond just basic drop in and feedings by taking time to learn about their routine and personality so I can provide the best care! I am a registered nurse but on my off days I am super flexible. I also love to stay active on my free days and enjoy going on walks! When caring for dogs I prioritize creating a safe and loving environment that resembles the comfort they’re used to. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly space. I also offer meet and greets to allow owners and pets to feel more comfortable and to make sure it is the right fit!

Taylor is a walker, so any dog she cares for will get plenty of exercise. I would have not hesitation in recommending Taylor a pet caregiver. Any dog would be lucky to have her.”

Rattlesnake dog parents share their Rover experiences
We just started using Maria as our previous walker was no longer able to walk Stella due to another job commitment. Maria‘s been punctual, compassionate and very tentative to Stella’s needs especially during the summer heat. Although Stella is a some moredjusting to her new walker, we think Maria is going to be a great fit. Thanks Maria 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
My doggy is very timid and shy when meeting new people. Sydney was absolutely amazing with agreeing to take her out for me very last minute and made my dog feel so comfortable! My dog warmed up to Sydney super quick. She took her on a walk and to the park to play fetch. She provided many pictures throughout the visit as well! I will definitely continue to use Sydney for future visits :)
Christina is seriously one of the best dog sitters/walkers we have ever encountered on this app. She is incredibly thoughtful and kind to not only our dogs but us. She is always on time and communications very throughly. My two dogs, a 8 month old puppy and 2 year old Bernese adore her so much. They cry and jump up and down when they see her hahah. I could not recommend Christina enough she is a great person and a friend!!
I would HIGHLY recommend Deanna! She is responsive, sweet, and very professional. Ever since she started walking my dog, Pippa has been visibly happier and calmer. She makes sure to give you daily updates and even helped my dog with recommendations when she had an upset stomach. Even cleaned up after my dog! She is an angel, and anyone would be lucky to have her taking care of their pet!
We are so grateful for Austin. From his response to our inquiry, to the meet and greet and him helping us out while we were away with dog walking he has been phenomenal. Extremely friendly, trustworthy, communicative, knowledgeable, and the list could go on- highly recommend Austin. We have two older doggos (15 yr old female 9 lb silky terrier & 13 yr old male 80lb lab, chow chow, boxer, staffy mix) with some medical issues (almost fully blind, arthritis, heart condition, our big guy had TPLO surgery and torsion surgery 8 months ago) and he was great with them. Our pups loved him and had so much fun with him. Our big guy is quite sensitive, high energy and dog reactive on leash and Austin had no problem handling him. Can’t emphasize the word trustworthy enough, we were able to take our trip without any worry as we knew they were in good hands. Thanks so much Austin!
Luis was outstanding in his care for our dog for a whole week. He came as scheduled, three times a day, fed her, gave her medicine, and walked her for long walks, as we requested. He played with her and they became friends. He sent us pictures of each visit. We came home to a healthy and happy dog. We highly recommend him. Very kind and trustworthy.
