About: I love all breeds and adore all dogs. I have raised three family dogs (20-30lbs) from puppies to ages 2, 3, and 15 human years old! I have lots of experience in temperament, basic training, enrichment, and cooking. Throughout my day I take care of my own dogs, run errands, and complete house chores. On days that I have work, I make sure my pups are settled and prepared before I leave. My house is in a gated community perfect for dog walks, and a 15 minute walk to the closest beach. I have a fully equipped kitchen where I cook my dogs food and downstairs+backyard space to explore and relax in.
“Brittany and Stephen are very caring and did great with our 2 older pups. We appreciate them and they have made our pets feel safe and comfortable. We would recommend them to anyone for dog sitting or daycare.”
“Chewy had a blast on his first visit. Claire is amazing!! Thank you so much for the great care and status report. We are so happy Chewy has new friends and mom and dad feel so comfortable leaving him!!”
“Cassandra did a wonderful job taking care of Moses, our 7 month old Boxer puppy for the entire day. It was our first time using Rover and we were pretty nervous about it. She has an amazing set up for her dog visitors inside and out. She is a responsible and kind, dog loving person. We feel lucky to have found her.”
About: Hello! New rescue mom, available for part time pet sitting and/or boarding. I have a very friendly 16 year old puggle, so I require that your doggy is great with other dogs. I have a very comfortable home, steps away from the downtown Gulfport. Why I love dog sitting: I prefer doggies to humans most of the time! Some call me a dog whisperer- I am instantly very close and make sure to have a bond with each and every animal...I understand separation anxiety can sometimes be challenging so I do my best to treat doggies like lil human beings- making them as happy and comfortable as possible! I make sure every animal has individual attention, care and love while mommy/daddy are away. Meet my pets Harmony. About my yard I do not...I have a small back porch, but I generally walk my dogs 2-3 times a day, and take them to the dog park to get exercise. If I watch your pet during the week, I work from home and can stop over frequently to let them out mid-day. I love taking long walks too! [If your doggie can keep up with me ;) ] I work remote and happy to take the pups out as often as necessary and love taking walks or to a dog park if that is your preference. I stay and work from home and attentive to the dogs needs and they are welcome in any area or on my furniture, and welcome to sleep with me or their doggy beds or crates.

I love all dogs big and small, so I can handle a few different dogs on a walk. I'm fine with any activity level, dogs who like to nap all day or dogs who need to be taken out multiple times. I am also the worlds biggest cat person as I currently am mom to 3 cats, Sasha, Isis, and Frank!! I do absolutely wonderful with cats and am very good at taking care of them and understanding their needs, their boundaries, and their social cues. I've also had bunnies, fish, turtles, and birds as well so my love for animals goes deep and I have experience with a lot. I understand how important they are to us so I would take care of any pet like they are my own and will make sure they are given lots of affection I work from home so I can take care of pets every day. I wake up at 7 am to begin taking care of my cats. I have availabilities 7 days a week. I can take 2-3 pets on for boarding at a time, depending on size.

About: I have been caring for dogs most of my life and love every dog as if they’re my own. I have experience with all life stages and personalities - whether your dog is high energy and needs lots of playtime or is a senior who just wants to relax and be loved on. I am used to medication management, special diets, mobility challenges and bottle feeding. My adult dog, Olive, is always looking for a new friend to play with. I also foster puppies from time to time, so there may be lots of new friends for your pup to interact with while they’re here. I tailor my care to match animals’ personality and routine. My goal is to make them feel safe, happy and well-cared for while you’re away. Whether that is day care during the day or a long-term trip, they will be in good hands. I am fully remote and will be with your pup(s) all day. We will have plenty of outdoor play time during the day and always make time for afternoon naps. There is a nice 3 mile walking path by my house, so if your dog is very active and likes to walk or run, I would love to bring them along. For less active dogs, there will always be a comfy spot on the couch for them! I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room for them to explore. My dog, Olive, loves to run around back there. There are also cooling mats on the back porch if your dog likes to sunbathe.
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.

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!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Pete Beach
If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would! Finding someone you truly trust to care for your baby is incredibly difficult, but Emma and William exceeded every expectation. They didn’t just watch Brisket, they treated him like he was part of their family. Throughout the day, I received multiple updates and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, he even had a personalized treat bag complete with a hand-drawn picture of him and a sweet little necklace! The best sign of all? He came home happy, content, and completely exhausted from all the fun he had. It was obvious he was loved, cared for, and had an amazing time. We will absolutely be bringing Brisket back and cannot recommend Emma and William highly enough. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our little guy! ❤️🐾🥰
Brittany and Stephen were really great. I was a bit concerned because my Chiquita is a senior dog and has cataracts. Scooter on the other hand is very energetic even at 14. I'm very happy with the care they provided. The "kids" looked happy and ready when I picked them up! Will definitely use them again!
Amanda's place is a perfect setup for dogs and Duran loves staying there, whether it is for a few hours or a few days while I am traveling. She has a nice fenced backyard for the dogs to play and sends me pictures throughout the day. He has made many new friends there and is eager to jump out of my SUV and run inside whenever I am there to drop him off!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Saint Pete Beach commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
