About: Hi! We’re Alexis and Ryan. We’ve both grown up with pets and have been around animals our entire lives. We’re currently raising three cats of our own, Simon, Charlie, and Bean, so we know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. We’ve always had a genuine love for animals of all kinds, and we’re comfortable getting to know different personalities, routines, and individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, we’re happy to adjust our approach to whatever makes them most comfortable. As pet owners ourselves, we understand that the little details matter. We prioritize clear communication, consistency, and making sure your pets receive the attention and care they’re used to while you’re away. We’re also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re doing well. We look forward to meeting you and getting to know your pets! Flexible during the week and 100% availability any time on weekends :) just let us know what you need and we will be able to accommodate your needs :) We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so we always make sure to follow their usual routines and any specific instructions you provide. Whether we’re stopping by for a visit, taking them on a walk, or staying with them, we want them to feel as comfortable as possible. We’re mindful of things like keeping doors and gates secure, making sure pets have fresh water, and paying attention to their behavior and needs. We also respect your home and are happy to send pictures and updates while you’re away. Our goal is to make the whole experience easy and stress-free for both you and your pets!
“My dog had a great couple of walks with Tracy! She sent great photos and updates while they spent time together, which made me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands. :)”


“Dan has been incredibly kind and patient with our pitty, who can be wary of strangers. He respects our dog’s boundaries and takes the time to listen when we explain his triggers and needs. Dan is also accommodating and quick to respond! We look forward to booking with him whenever we go out of town. Highly recommend!”

About: Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to have dogs as companions, which has instilled in me a deep understanding of animal care. As an ardent animal enthusiast, I have developed a particular fondness for cats, having personally adopted one. When entrusted with the care of others’ animals, I approach my responsibilities with utmost seriousness, treating them with the same compassion and attention I would bestow upon my own. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine. I currently take care of Pets on a part-time basis and have a few regular clients who leave every month for few days to two weeks. In their absence, I take over their pet sitting and housesitting responsibilities. I always enjoy starting the day with a meet-and-greet where I get to meet the parents and the animal. We then go over where all their food is stored. Their favorite spots are often their favorite toys, which are essentially their daily routine. I try to fit myself into that routine as easily as possible to make things easier for both the animal and the parents.
About: I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, crafting a schedule that includes their favorite activities—be it fetch, agility training, or just snuggling on the couch. I treat all animals like family! Due to hurricane Helene I am out of work and need something in the meantime until we can reopen ! I got to school for nursing 3 days a week Pet Care at My Home: When your pet stays with me, they enjoy a safe and loving environment designed to make them feel right at home: Comfortable Space: Your pup will have a designated area with cozy bedding, toys, and plenty of room to relax. I ensure my home is pet-proofed, keeping hazards out of reach. Daily Routine: I maintain a consistent routine that includes feeding, playtime, and potty breaks to ensure your pet feels secure and comfortable. Playtime & Exercise: We’ll enjoy regular walks, interactive play sessions, and even some fun agility games to keep them active and engaged. Socialization: If your dog enjoys the company of other pets, I offer supervised playdates with friendly, well-mannered dogs to promote social skills. Health & Safety: I monitor your pet’s health closely, checking for any changes in behavior or appetite. Plus, I’m trained in pet first aid, so you can rest easy knowing they’re in good hands. Pet Care in Your Home: Personalized Attention! If your pet stays in their familiar environment, I offer a tailored approach that ensures they feel comfortable and secure: Routine Maintenance: I follow your established schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime, providing continuity in their daily life. Household Duties: I can assist with light household tasks, such as watering plants or bringing in mail, so you can focus on your time away. Familiar Environment: Your pet will remain in their safe space, surrounded by their favorite toys and scents, minimizing stress during your absence. Daily Updates: You’ll receive regular updates and photos, keeping you connected with your furry friend and reassured about their well-being. Extra TLC: Whether it’s giving extra cuddles, brushing, or administering medication, I tailor my care to meet your pet’s specific needs. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is to provide a loving and attentive experience that keeps your pet happy and healthy. Let’s chat about how I can best serve you and your furry companion! Feel free to modify any details to reflect your specific approach and offerings!

About: I love animals, especially dogs! I enjoy working with small, medium, and large dogs of all kinds of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that I take very good care of as far as grooming, exercising, feeding, and of course..loving!!! One is a long haired chihuahua and the other is an australian sheppard.I work from home so I have flexibility during the week. I feel very comfortable around dogs and feel that I can properly take care of them. I really like this app because I know some people are very busy with work but still want to have pets so this is an awesome way to make sure the animals go outside as they need and get the exercise they need. I look forward to meeting your pup(s)! I work from home full-time so I can fit walks, feeding, & playtime easily into my schedule. I require a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure I am comfortable with your pet and vice versa. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs that will keep your pup company. A 3 year old australian sheppard and a 12 year old chihuahua.
About: I’ve been pet sitting, fostering, and volunteering at animal rescues since I was a teenager. I’m pretty comfortable with animals of all sizes. I also have experience administering medication, assisting during times of disability rehabilitation, basic training, and understanding special cases. I want to bring you here peace of mind knowing that your babies are being well taken care of and loved while you’re away. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I’m also typically an early riser so I’m happy to make whatever schedule you need work. In my home, your pet would be treated like one of ours. I will follow whatever rules you prefer but otherwise, they will be loved just like our own.

“Sarah does a great job walking Shelby. Sarah is very communicative and reliable. She is great at getting Shelby ready for her walk (putting on the dreaded harness!)”

About: I’ve always been the go-to person in my family and friend groups to rely on to watch and care for cats and dogs of all sizes for years! I’m super passionate about animals and love being able to provide pet parents with the relief knowing their babies are well taken care of. I currently go to school in the mornings, and work part time but I’m usually free weekdays after 1 pm and all day weekends for visits. I’m available for overnight stays any day. I’m unable to care for pets in my home, but I will gladly come to yours where they feel their safest to provide care and company for them.
About: Growing up with dogs, I love all dogs like my own!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Petersburg
Veronique, was timely and incredible with communication! She took great care of Jax during his walks! I accidentally locked the door incorrectly one day and she immediately reached out and waited for me to return home and still offered to walk Jax! I look forward to her caring for Jax again!

Danielle went above and beyond! I couldn't speak more highly of our experience with her. I felt like our pup was in the best hands and never worried about her under Danielle's care for one minute. Highly recommend Danielle - she is a true treasure inside and out.

Dan has been incredibly kind and patient with our pitty, who can be wary of strangers. He respects our dog’s boundaries and takes the time to listen when we explain his triggers and needs. Dan is also accommodating and quick to respond! We look forward to booking with him whenever we go out of town. Highly recommend!

I can't recommend Chloe enough. She's new to walking Simba, but she already went above and beyond — I forgot to schedule her for a day I was working, and she made time to fit Simba in anyway, even though it wasn't planned. That kind of reliability and care means everything, especially with a new walker. So glad I found her on Rover — Simba's in great hands."

Great experience! She took great care of my dog and was very considerate throughout the walk. I especially appreciated that she checked with me to make sure my dog was comfortable walking the full 30 minutes rather than just assuming. Would definitely recommend her!

Devin & Kylie were great. Our older dog who can’t hear, can’t see very well and usually doesn’t like strangers did really well with Devin &Kylie. They took Precious for 3 walks per day and fed her AM and PM. I was really apprehensive at first but would recommend them and use Devin & Kylie again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Saint Petersburg is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 6,977 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Saint Petersburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Saint Petersburg. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Saint Petersburg after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Petersburg. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 walker.
