“Tabatha was absolutely purrrrfect!! She went above and beyond, not just feeding and cleaning up after our kitty, but also sending us adorable updates and photos. It was clear our Ollie was treated like royalty with plenty of playtime and cuddles. Coming home to a relaxed and happy kitty was such a relief – we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We will definitely be booking with Tabatha without hesitation!”


About: Hello, my name is Andrea and I would love to care for your furbaby! I’m originally from N. Kentucky and moved here 11 years ago. I volunteered with the Pinellas County Animal Shelter caring for dogs. Some of my duties included walking dogs, playing with them in the play yards and assisting potential pet parents. I am a reliable person who follows through and is trustworthy. Thank you so much for your consideration. My schedule is flexible therefore giving availability mornings, afternoons and evenings. I would like the opportunity to meet you and your fur baby. Thank you I am interested in walking dogs therefore I will not be boarding at my house. Please select another Rover employee that offers boarding. Thank you

“Amanda was reliable and flexible. We came back early and she switched her time for Charleys final visit. She spent time inside and out, as Charley enjoys sitting outside in her stroller, birdwatching, and she was understanding with the occasional hisses of Charley feeling unsure.. Definitely will call her again!”


About: I have been a pet sitter and dog walker for about 4 years now. I provide many services including, dog walking, feeding, overnight care, and keeping an animal with a separation anxiety company. My schedule for the summer is somewhat flexible, to do drop ins or walkings. I do have a job and internship but I’m willing to work it out to make sure your pet gets the best care he or she needs! - Dog walk - Playtime - Feeding - Keeping an animal company who might have separation anxiety - I also have a parrot and tortoise at home, so I have experience with those animals too.

“Amy was awesome with my two rescue doggos. She stopped in, took awesome photos, spent some time with my girls and even cleaned up a small mess they had made. Amy has been great from start to finish. Definitely recommend. Will be using her any time I need to be away.”

Dates you need not showing as available? Send me a message only & ask! PLEASE read my profile and REPLY TO QUESTIONS BELOW.... I need all of this info before I'd accept a booking, thanks! ** 15+ years house/pet sitting experience **Friendly, down to earth, & conscientious, I've been told I put people (and animals) at ease **Many repeat pet/housesitting jobs over the many years I've been doing this ** I love dogs AND cats, and have a good amount of experience with both **I have owned a home independently for 17 years, & I care for yours not as mine, but as YOURS -- as you request and with the extra special care and concern I believe one should give when responsible for other people's property ** Responsible, professional, service oriented - I operate an online business and treat pet / house sitting the same as those clients. My background is in education/corporate training and customer service supervisory roles ** Non-smoker, no drugs. No drinking also no problem ** Clean, neat, detail oriented - all will be in order as you left it, or better, when you return ** Plant/yard/pool care (etc.) also fine, just ask ** I have a questionnaire/ checklist I use to gather vital info and instructions, which many clients have commented impressed them and was very useful **QUESTIONS: please answer in your message**: -- Tell me a bit about your pet(s) personality and needs (need to know quirks, walk/play preferences, do you have a yard for breaks or not, etc.) -- Their habits, schedules (potty break timing? are their feeding times are set? or flexible? where do they sleep?

And I'm very happy to answer any questions, of course! Many thanks - Shannon PS: I do work a later schedule so my hours may differ than most - if your dog is on a set routine/early morning schedule, it may not be a good match. I work from home, online, so I'm there a lot. Your pets might actually be tired of me at some point, being a home body, too! See notes at top of profile also. I care for your pets as close to how YOU care for them and the instructions/suggestions you give me as possible (knowing I'm not you & will likely do some things different of course) Safety is a top priority of course! This means entering through a "pet catch" area if possible (like a garage or porch), or at least being VERY careful in & out of the door, esp if your pet likes to try to bolt out! Please bring up any particular needs, considerations and /or concerns in email or when we chat.

“Katy took care of my three dogs for the weekend while I was out of town. She was quick to respond and kept me updated with photos and notes about how they did throughout the weekend. The dogs were so happy and well cared for! It was comforting to know my pups were in great hands while I was away. Thank you, Katy! We look forward to seeing you again :)”


About: Growing up will all kinds of pets taught me early on just how much I truly loved animals. I have experience not only from caring for my own pets in the past but also pet sitting for friends and family over the years. I understand how worrisome it is leaving your furry best friends behind when needing to travel and ensure you I will provide nothing but the best care and update you every step of the way. I work remotely so generally speaking my schedule is extremely flexible. I am home all day other than going to the gym for about 1-2hrs. I tend to think of animals more highly than people. I ensure their safety in any way possible from basic common sense to special requests from owners.

“The pets love Mary Anna and she did a great job. She went beyond my basic request to just let the dogs out by giving the pets extra attention and play time. Will be using her again!”

“Took great care of my boys!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets of all ages and breeds for almost 5 years for neighbors and family friends. I have experience staying overnight with pets, stopping by for check ins, and taking pets on walks and to the park. I have experience with sitting multiple pets, with behavioural and physical issues. I am currently attending college in the mornings, so I have time for walks at lunchtime, and can hang out with you pet in the afternoon/ evenings/ overnight. I don’t offer boarding, but if you let me know what your pet enjoys, I’ll make sure they have lots of fun staying at your house. Lots of walks, playing outside if you have a fenced in yard or nearby dog park, and indoor playing and cuddling.


About: I love animals and treat them like my own. I hug them, hold them, kiss and play with them. I previously had hundreds of animals on a farm in Seminole Fl. From ducks, chickens rabbits ,cats and dogs, to goats, pigs, cows and horses. I like to make them happy because it warms my heart and makes me happy! I'm very patient, compassionate, hardworking, trustworthy and loyal to people and pets. If your pet is with me they will be safe and loved. I have been a homecare person for an elderly family member and have taken care of my friends animals when they have gone out of town. They have all said how clean I keep their home, and it looks like it did when they left.

“Cami was great!! The Pongo and Jazz loved her and she took great care of them. With all the great Rover feedback, pictures and status reports, we had great piece of mind while we were on our trip. We’ll be doing it again with Cami! Thank you so much”

Shannon T.

“If you're looking for someone to take care of your dog or dogs for any period of time Shannon is the one you want to hire. She came in and took care of our two dogs and our house for five days back in June and we could not have been happier. The dogs took to her instantly and Shannon is very meticulous when it comes to details of the care and need of your specific dog. She's spends the time to find out how you do things rather than just coming in and doing things her way and we were really at ease leaving our two dogs with her. We don't entrust our dogs to just anyone and we would hire her again should the opportunity and need arise. Highly recommended.”
