About: I’m a kind, calm, reliable, and caring person who absolutely loves animals, especially dogs! 🐶❤️ I have about 4 years of experience dog sitting, doing check-ins, and caring for pets in their homes. I grew up around animals and have always loved taking care of them. During college, I regularly helped friends and others with their pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll always treat your pet with the love, patience, and care they deserve! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty open availability! I am available any week day, will let you know if any days do not work for me! I am open for weekends and any week long stays. I provide pet care exclusively in the comfort of your home, so your pets can stay in their familiar environment while you’re away. I’m available for overnight house sitting, daily check-ins, walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, medication administration if needed, and general companionship!

About: Animals are my life and I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. Seeing an animal happy and well cared for is one of my greatest achievements. I have adhered to strict feeding schedules, performed light grooming responsibilities, and am capable of administering medication as needed. You will return with a happy pet and a clean home free of any pet messes. Exercise is an important part of your pet's long term happiness and health, so I provide leashed walks, and play dates at various locations such as the beach, nature preserves, and parks. Friends and family have always relied on me to feed, walk, bathe, and entertain their fur babies. Pet care is my full time profession, I'm available throughout the day, evenings, weekends, as well as holidays for all of your pet care needs. I live in a condo community and have a friendly Shih Tzu/Chihuahua mix dog that loves to have visitors. We have a community beach that allows dogs on the beach, which is great for those dogs who love the water!

About: Hi I’m Cassandra. I grew up with dogs and cats of various sizes and breeds! I have experience with dog training and behavior as well. I have trained 2 Belgian Malinois. I’m the girl at the party who just plays with the dog (or cat) the whole time.

Just ask and I’m happy to work around your schedule as needed! I have a fenced yard and caged pool.

About: I’ve always helped out with animals in my community. I volunteered at a dog kennel in highschool, and my neighbor growing up traveled a lot so I would feed and walk his dog every morning for nearly two years along with caring for my own dog. I work from home partially, and have a part time job in the weekends. My schedule changes frequently but I have plenty of spare time and am always willing to make arrangements for work. I do not offer in home services, but I am comfortable pet sitting or caring for your pets while away! I love long walks, and chilling on the couch so no matter how high or low energy your pet may be I’m willing to accommodate what’s best for you and them :).

About: Hi! I've been taking care of furry friends since I was 11! I’m kept on my toes by my 1 year old mini dachshund, Koda, who I've raised since he was a baby. I also have experience with senior care through my little old man, Hawkeye. I'm a current law student and young professional and I would love to help others who need some pet lovin’ worked into their busy schedules! There's no puppy too energetic, sleepy, or playful!! My pup has separation anxiety so I am very familiar with pets sometimes needing a bit of extra care. When your furry friend is with me, they will be my #1 priority and receive all of my attention and love! I'm currently in law school, and working part time, and would love to work with you to find how we can work pet care into our schedules! I have a fully fenced back yard, and gates that can be used inside my home. I have a friendly, if not sometimes shy, mini dachshund that loves playing with smaller dogs especially or just sleeping on the couch all day! We’re both comfortable with and enjoy any level of play.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, so I know all the responsibilities that come with having a pet! I also volunteered at an animal shelter for a year. I’m very comfortable with puppies or kittens and giving oral medication! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I have 2 pets. I will make sure your pet gets the same level of care and attention I give my own! I’m not enrolled in any classes this semester so my schedule is usually open! I will take care of your pet as if it were my own, which means getting the best care! I will respect the house rules, and you can expect the home to look the same if not better once you return home.

About: I've been pet/house sitting since 2020 and have taken care of elderly dogs, young dogs, dogs with pacemakers, dogs that don't do well on the leash, cats, bunnies, chickens, reptiles, fish and orchids. Starting in July, I’ll be wide open and available days, nights, weekends, and weekdays. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so I’ll have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and attention. I’m open to pet sitting at our home or yours. We have one pup who is here part-time (joint custody) so if your pup needs to be the only one, we can make that happen. We have a fenced-in yard where pets can safely play and relax. I typically plan for two walks a day plus time outside in between, but am more than happy to tailor a schedule that fits your pets needs.

She kept us updated the entire time and sent pictures during her visits, which we always looked forward to. When we came home it was clear they were happy and well taken care of. We would definitely use her again! Thank you!! 😊”

Our 7-year-old American Bulldog has always been a challenge to find care for. Until now, the only person we trusted to watch him was my brother-in-law. Our dog gets protective and anxious when we leave, and because of his size, many people are understandably hesitant to come into our home without us there. Dan went above and beyond by taking the time to meet our dog several times before our trip and doing a few trial visits to build trust. His patience, kindness, and calm demeanor made all the difference, and he ended up being the perfect fit for our pup. Knowing we had someone we could truly rely on gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We no longer have to stress about leaving town, and that is priceless. Dan is amazing, and we couldn't recommend him more highly. We can't wait to use his services again in the future!

I cannot recommend Tessa highly enough! From the moment we first reached out, her responsiveness was exceptional. Appointment requests were always answered within minutes, making scheduling incredibly easy and stress-free. One of our biggest concerns was having someone we could truly trust in our home—and this sitter exceeds all expectations. She respected our space, kept everything tidy, and we always felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such capable and reliable hands. What truly sets Tessa apart is her remarkable attentiveness to our dog’s special needs. Our aging Weimaraner has a unique diet and medication schedule and some specific behavioral quirks, but Tessa took the time to learn every detail and made sure our dog felt happy and safe. We regularly received thoughtful updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while away. If you’re searching for a quick-to-respond, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter, look no further. Our experience has been nothing short of outstanding!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Saint Pete Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Saint Pete Beach is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $52 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,088 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Saint Pete Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Saint Pete Beach choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Saint Pete Beach with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Pete Beach. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
