“We really appreciated Samantha's help dropping in on our cat while we were out of town. She was very communicative and went the extra mile of helping bring in the mail and removing a blaring fire alarm that had a dead battery. She provided photos so we had peace of mind that our kitty was okay. Thanks again!”

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats of all sizes, and every animal is family to me. I work from home, so your babies will always be well cared for. My teenage daughter loves them just as much as I do. I work from home so your fur babies will be cared for around the clock. All of their needs will be taken care of in a timely manner and lots of time for cuddles! I do not have any animals currently as our “old man” recently passed over the rainbow bridge. I have a large fenced backyard for your dog to run around and play in. I love to go for walks and play with them in the backyard.

About: Animals have always been attracted to me and felt comfortable with me. I have a few months experience in a vets office and over 1 year now as a private pet sitter. I work part time at a brewery, and have plenty of availability to watch pets. I can come to your house multiple times throughout the day and even stay over night if that’s what you prefer 😊 I usually like to set up a meet & greet and take notes on each pet to have as much information about them before my stay.

About: I've volunteered at a variety of animal shelters in Hillsborough/Pasco county walking dogs of all different sizes, shapes, and conditions. I really enjoying being outside with the animals and getting to experience all the different types of personalities dogs have. I'm only free on the weekends since I work the weekdays. That allows me to spend all the required time with no distractions to take care of your pet(s). Currently I cannot take any pets into my home. However, I was raised well and understand common scene so I will always respect the homes of my clients

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, and I’ve always been very hands-on with the pet care at home. I am a trusted pet babysitter amongst my family. I value the pet’s mental health and happiness especially while their owner is away. I am a part-time college student, and I work at a catering company with a highly flexible schedule, so I can work around your needs. I try to encourage a stress free environment by sticking to your pet’s normal routine while you’re away, making sure that they’re happy and healthy, as they would be under your own care.

About: Hi, I'm Johnnie! I have a background in Human Services and Counseling, so attentiveness and genuine care come naturally to me. I've helped look after family and friends' pets and understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home. I specialize in house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I show up on time, send regular photo updates, and treat every pet like my own. Looking forward to meeting yours! 🐾 Your pet is my top priority throughout the day and even at night no matter what! If I eat your pet eats if I go out for a walk most certainly your pet will be walking with me! Your pet will always align into my schedule perfectly synced. In my home I only hope that I am provided a thorough explanation of what type of care and personality your pet has so that I may adjust myself accordingly. Having the supplies needed to care for your pet is also a huge relief and is appreciated. In your home (should you allow me to) caring for your pet in your home is right next to caring for your pet in the president's own house, I'll settle for nothing but giving my best for you and your pet.

About: Hey everyone! I'm Magy , I have previously worked at a pet store for 1-2 years, was in FFA my duration of high-school, and also grew up with a variety of animals such as cats dogs, reptiles big and small, amphibians , and farm animals. I have opened up my home to helping others with thier pets and look forward to meeting yours too! I have been doing petcare part-time, I do have a flexible schedule and can do extended pet care as well and/or travel to your baby. Care is located in a well maintained and clean home with a fenced backyard. I am also particular of making sure each pet sticks with thier diet and medications as well. Guaranteed they will get alot of undivided attention-if they like that lol they all have thier own personalities. 😄 I mostly do boarding. I work remotley from home. The only times I'm not there is for usual things like pickup/drop off my daughter at school and typical errands like groceries. Specific care is dependant on the needs of the pet such as medicine, times of walks, and feeding time. Our environment is clean and relaxed.

About: Ever since I was little my family has always owned some type of animal. We’ve owned 4 English bulldogs, a cat, a hamster and 2 ferrets. Now, I myself own a 1 year old miniature dachshund named Franklin. I love taking care of all animals and making sure they get the proper care they need and more. I currently work about 30 hours a week. My schedule isn’t the same every week so depending on what time and days I work, I set aside time to make sure I can come and take care of any pets that need it, whether it’s on my days off, or before or after work. In my clients homes all pets will have clean fresh water and will be fed given the directions of the owner. The pets will also get plenty of exercise whether it’s playing in their backyard or going on a walk. Along with playing inside with their toys. I also make sure that pets feel comfortable in their own home and will make sure they get lots of love and attention.

About: You want your pet to feel happy, safe, and comfortable at home while you’re out of town? You’ve got it! 🐾 I’m Estefania, a certified veterinary assistant/technician, professional dog groomer, and longtime animal lover with 17+ years of hands on experience. I coordinate dog adoptions through our nonprofit organization and also work independently to educate, rescue, rehabilitate, and advocate for homeless pets and animals in need. I’m experienced with all kinds of pet care needs, including administering medications, wound care, preparing special meals, and making accommodations for pets with medical, behavioral, or special needs. I’m also backed by local veterinary resources when something outside the normal scope of pet sitting comes up. For our Sarasota area sitting, I’m fortunate to have my longtime friend Jen Semro joining me. Jen is retired and has been caring for pets since the 1980s. She lives a quiet, peaceful lifestyle and has always had a genuine love for animals. She enjoys photography and resin art in her free time and is the perfect person to provide calm, consistent companionship. Jen will be the primary sitter and will handle the day to day care, while I remain involved and available to provide my veterinary technician knowledge and additional support whenever needed. Together, we bring decades of combined pet care experience and a very personal approach to every animal we care for. We intentionally keep our pet care small and personal rather than taking on a large number of animals at once. Our goal is for your pet to receive genuine attention and maintain as much of their normal routine as possible. We can accommodate pets who need extra patience, special routines, medications, senior care, or simply a little more love and reassurance. For house sitting, we’ll accommodate our schedule around your pet’s needs so they can stay comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. We’re happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and being cared for. About us: 🐾 Animal lovers 🐾 Veterinary assistant/technician experience 🐾 Professional dog groomer experience 🐾 Jen has provided pet care since the 1980s 🐾 Experienced with senior, special needs, nervous, and challenging pets 🐾 Rescue and rehabilitation experience 🐾 Reliable and safety focused 🐾 Personalized, low volume care 🐾 Local veterinary resources and support Why I love caring for animals: As far back as I can remember, I’ve had a fascination with animals. When I was about 9 years old, I became involved with Cat Tails and More, a local nonprofit organization, where I began learning how to work with and understand dogs on a deeper level. That early experience grew into a lifelong passion. Over the years, I’ve learned how to build amazing relationships with animals while also helping their people better understand them. Whether it’s a goofy pup , a nervous rescue, a senior who needs extra care, or a pet who simply wants someone nearby, I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal as an individual. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! ❤️🐾 Whether I’m at home or in your home I follow /adapt to each pets usual routine so that they feel as nothing has changed . I have a fenced yard and friendly dogs to keep your dog company . I prefer not to crate but I will if necessary. I have many references from clients who ask me to stay in their home.

About: I have always adored animals. I care for them like they are people and do my absolute best to make sure they are happy, healthly, and 100% comfortable. That means going the extra mile in care. For example taking an extra 20 minutes to let them run around play before being left alone until I return or the owner makes it home. I have two pets, a two year old english cocker spaniel and a seven your old cat. So I am not afraid to clean up any messes. I have watched family friends, friends, and been hired by others in my community to care for their pets. I will treat your pet like family, because they are apart of your family. I will make any accommodations you need for your pet, just let me know what you need! I currently work full time 8:30-5pm with a one hour lunch break, which means during the week days I am available after 5pm. But on weekends I am available around the clock. To ensure your pets safety I only will do things that you allow and/or feel comfortable with. If we go outside in an unfenced location, your pet will remain on his or her leash. I typically try to take pets to the park, but I always about this ask this before doing so.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic dogs to various cat personalities. Growing up with a range of animals, including dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, ducks, and bunnies, I developed a deep understanding of their needs. My experience includes walking, feeding, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m reliable, flexible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a calm companion or an active playmate, I’m here to ensure they feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule as I currently don't have a job. My bouquet business allows me flexibility, giving me ample time to care for pets daily. I can establish routines for feeding, walking, and playing, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve while I work on my floral creations. This balance keeps me engaged and provides a fulfilling routine. In my clients' homes, I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment for their pets. I always take the time to check for any hazards and follow their specific routines and preferences closely. I approach each pet with patience and kindness, helping them feel relaxed. I also like to keep pet owners updated with messages and photos, so they know their pets are happy and well-cared for. Building that trust is really important to me!

I literally am so thankful for Sydney! I get so nervous leaving my cat home when I travel for work and other things in my life. He loves attention and gets really sad without it, and I was really worried about having to leave him again. Sydney was so reassuring, very detailed and making sure she knew exactly what needed to be done and did it right, and gave me so many updates! Just currently reviewed cameras of her playing with my cat as well and I can tell how happy he was and safe she made him feel! (he is a scaredy-cat lol). Absolutely 1000% recommend her! I even rebooked her for another extra day. Truly cares and loves your animals like her own and really good working with adjustments and changes if needed too! Very honest and upfront girly too. Thank you tons Sydney!

My mom cats love Kyra! She took care of them while I traveled internationally. She sent daily updates and photos, and even got reclusive kitty to warm up to her. This gave me comfort as I was worried about leaving them for 9 days. A minor emergency occurred at my house and Kyra notified me immediately so I could have it taken care of. I can’t recommend Kyra enough!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Spring Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Spring Hill is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $9 and $26 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 November 2026, there are 3,841 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Spring Hill. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spring Hill. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters 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 sitter.
