Ari was great! Bert was so excited to meet her—he immediately brought her a toy before heading out on their 30-minute walk. She was very mindful of Bert being a pug in the hot weather and brought him back a little early, which we truly appreciated. He came home happy and exhausted! We’re already planning to use Ari again in just a few days. Highly recommend booking her!

About: Raised in Minnesota barn life, I learned hands‑on care for birds, small mammals, and horses. Now serving St. Pete, I offer reliable dog walks, gentle leash training, enrichment, medication administration, and attentive puppy, senior, and/or specialized care. My partner and I share life with two dogs, Betty and Zuko, and a cat, Grapes, and you’ll often spot our little fam swimming at Fort DeSoto or strolling through Sawgrass Lake Park. I offer early, late, or multiple daily visits and can do overnight stays with advance notice. My schedule is flexible most days and weekends; I am unavailable on Wednesdays. I primarily provide care in your home so pets stay in familiar surroundings. I follow provided routines, secure doors/enclosures, perform a quick safety check each visit, and administer oral meds exactly as directed. I send regular photo updates and will contact you should any concerns arise.

About: I grew up in a house with three Siamese cats, and animals have been a constant in my life ever since, from living with roommates in multi-pet households to volunteering with adoption agencies. My own cat Leona (a Siamese Tortie) keeps me well-versed in the particular needs of vocal, opinionated animals! I'm detail-oriented, a frequent communicator, and I take great photos, so the updates you get won't just be reassuring, they'll be worth saving. If you're looking for someone dependable in the St. Pete area, I'd love to meet your pet! I'm an active person who goes for long walks daily, and I would love for your dog to be my walking partner! My schedule is flexible, which means I can provide consistent weekly walks or accommodate your needs when something comes up. I know exactly the level of care I'd want for Leona when I'm away, and I bring that same standard to every client. That means more than just showing up. I make sure food and water bowls are clean, playtime is engaging, and affection is offered on your pet's terms. I'm a frequent communicator and will send photo updates and notes each visit so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: Hi, I’m Kim! I’m a 30-year-old lawyer who works from home and has a deep passion for caring for animals. I have two wonderful dogs of my own and have fostered several dogs over the years, giving me plenty of experience with different breeds and temperaments. With over 15 years of pet care experience, I offer overnight sitting, daily walks, and plenty of love and attention for your pets while you’re away. I’ve also cared for cats, including newborn kittens that needed nursing, so I’m comfortable providing specialized care for pets of all ages. Whether it’s daily walks or extended overnight stays, your pets will feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I work from home on MWF so I am very flexible with dog walking availability! As far as overnight stays in my home, I do not have any day limitations. If dogs are crate trained, I will leave them in the crate if I am leaving the house just to make sure they feel safe. I have a closed in backyard. For new dogs, I will keep them on the leash the first time they are down there just to gauge their temperament.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. I grew up with small and large dogs. I currently have two labs that I have raised for years. One of my labs has had multiple ACL surgeries so I have experience administering medicine and caring for an animal post surgery. I am a realtor and have a flexible work schedule. I am able to tend to your pet before, during and after work. I will do what I can to work with you to ensure your pet is being tended to in a timely manner. I have two friendly dogs who love to play with other furry friends. I also have a couple of crates available if you prefer your dog to be crated at various times throughout the day.

About: I know how important (and relieving) it is to find a sitter on Rover you can truly trust. With two pets of my own at home, I understand how much dogs become part of the family and how important it is to know they are in caring, responsible hands. I have also cared for older foster dogs during hurricanes, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing comfort during stressful situations. As a law student away from home, I do not currently have the time to care for a dog full time, so I see Rover as an opportunity to share some of the love and care I have for animals with your pets. I am reliable, responsible, and committed to making your dogs feel safe, cared for, and loved while you are away. Currently, I have a very flexible schedule. I can walk dogs multiple times a day and also pet sit for a few hours or check in as many times as needed! In your home, I would care for your dog by not only learning where all of their important items are, but also understanding their individual preferences, whether that’s where they like to rest, their favorite toy, or behaviors they may show when they are missing you. I know how important consistency and comfort are for pets while their owners are away. You can also count on me to respect your home, follow your routines closely, and remain communicative throughout my time with your pet so you always feel informed and reassured.

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.

Karen has been dog walking for my handsome ol' man Chewbacca for a while now. It is easy to tell he is happier on the days she comes over. She is also thoughtful to get helpful feedback on how he is doing for the day, which is important as he is older and has had some illnesses. Karen also spends the time to give attention to my cats as well, including photos. I'm lucky to have her to take care of my Chewesph!
