About: Hi my name is Carole. I had a petsitting business many years ago when I realized how difficult it was asking friends to take care of my menagerie all the time. Loved loved loved petsitting and all the interesting pets (and their owners) I met over the years. I recently retired and thought PERFECT this is what I want to do again! I currently have three dogs and a cat. But in the past I’ve had every animal you could think of…Potbelly pigs, sugar gliders, hedgehogs, Caiman gator, chameleons, goats, turkeys, ducks… I love animals! I have been involved with dog shows over the past 40 years ( do not currently show at all). Did mostly obedience and agility. And was very involved with our breed rescue group. Let your pet stay home with loving and compassionate care for your pet in the comfort of a familiar and safe environment. I am available anytime, as I said I am retired 😊 and home all the time. And able to travel… have a place out of state you need pets and home looked after? For boarding in my home…I have two separate fenced yard’s. A total of about a half an acre. Very secure and landscaped. The big yard has gardens and a ditch that dogs love to sniff around. And a small yard in case your dog doesn’t want to be around my dogs 😊. I also have a doggie door that goes out to a fenced in small area. I have three medium size dogs that are extremely mellow couch potatoes and get along with all dogs! For overnight stays or drop in visits in your home… Again I will try to keep them on their regular schedule and work with you for whatever you need for your pet!

AJ was professional and friendly and took time to meet my new rescue dog before starting service. AJ took extra care of my dog, providing lots of care for him and communicating with photos and updates after their visit. I would highly recommend AJ!

Brighton, CO, 80601

About: I've been caring for dogs for 5+ years and have 3 years of professional boarding experience through Rover. My 3 year old Border Collie mix, Lyra, has been my best teacher. she's helped me learn how to manage high energy personalities, read canine body language, and understand what different dogs need to feel comfortable. Through working with various dogs and their families, I've developed a good eye for spotting anxiety triggers and helping nervous pups settle in. I'm a full-time architecture student at CU Denver with flexible availability for house sitting and dog walking. Since I split my time between Denver and Brighton, I can provide care in the Denver metro area. When I'm not in class, I'm fully available to give your pup my undivided attention, whether that's multiple potty breaks throughout the day, mid-day walks, or just hanging out on the couch during study sessions. Safety is my absolute top priority, which is why I believe in honest, open communication from the start. I know all dogs have their quirks, and that's completely okay! What matters is that I know about them upfront so I can create the safest, most comfortable environment for your pup. Before any booking, I'd love to chat about: Your dog's history with other dogs (any past incidents, even minor ones?) Triggers or situations that make them anxious or reactive Food, toy, or space guarding behaviors Crate training comfort level Any protective tendencies around their people For pullers, I encourage positive reinforcement with treats and such, it makes walks way more enjoyable for both of us! I'll send you daily photo updates so you always know your pup is happy and safe. My goal is for you to feel like you're leaving your dog with someone you completely trust.

About: Hello! My name is Kate, and I am a senior at the University of Northern Colorado! I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, guinea pigs, and more. I currently own four dogs and a disabled cat, giving me firsthand experience with pets of all sizes and special needs. I've cared for dogs ranging from a three-legged Chihuahua to an Irish Wolfhound and am comfortable administering medications, following special feeding instructions, and managing prescription diets. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand the importance of providing safe, reliable, and loving care for every pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I am already responsible for caring for my own pets. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days and times, with the exception of Tuesdays from 12:00 PM–3:00 PM and Thursdays from 11:00 AM–2:00 PM when I am at work. Outside of those hours, I have full availability and can provide reliable care, walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication administration, and plenty of attention for your pets. I care for every pet according to their individual needs and routine. In a client's home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and attention, and receive any medications or special care they require. I also help maintain their normal routine to keep them comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own and ensure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have had animals in my home my entire life, so pet sitting isn't anything new to me! I have been all over the place in terms of pet care including newborn puppies, senior pets, and those with specific diets. I was also an intern at an animal hospital a few years back, so I know a thing or two about administering medications. I am a full-time college student, so I may not always be available in the mornings, but I am willing to stay overnight and check on pets regularly. Whether your pet needs a walk, bath, brush, play or cuddles, I'm here for it! I am studying at CU Denver and my classes are mostly in the morning and mid-day. I have Fridays and Saturdays off which works great if you're to looking to take a weekend trip! I typically keep animals where I can see them to avoid accidents in the home. To ensure the safety of your pets and your house, I will make sure to lock the doors after I leave and at night time. I always pick up after myself - you'll never know I was there!

About: I’ve helped family and friends care for their dogs for years, including walking, feeding, bathing, and taking them on hikes. I currently live with three Great Danes that belongs to my cousin and I have helped care for them for the past nine years. We also used to have Chihuahuas, and we have two cats, so I’m comfortable with both big and small pets. I’m patient, active, and love making animals feel safe and cared for. I’m currently in nursing school, so I spend a lot of time at home studying and have a flexible routine. I’ve also been wanting to get out of the house more, so pet care is a great fit for me. I’d love to help care for your pets, take them on walks, and possibly bring them on hikes if that’s something they enjoy. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I pay close attention to their needs, routines, and personality, and I’ll follow any instructions you provide. I’ll treat them like family and keep you updated while you’re away.

About: With a lifelong passion for animals, I bring years of experience in caring for dogs and other pets. Growing up, I had two dogs, one of whom was a trained service dog, both of whom sadly passed away when I was 12. Today, I am the proud owner of two energetic young dogs, Bleu (2 years old) and Frankie (1.5 years old), as well as a social and playful 1-year-old cat who loves interacting with both dogs and people. I understand how important your pets are, and I would love the opportunity to care for your fur babies as you would, ensuring they receive the attention, love, and care they deserve while you’re away. Let me help provide you with peace of mind, knowing your pets are in great hands. Contact me today to discuss your pet care needs! I am currently a full time student at front range community college, but I make time for the furry friends! My schedule is very open. I have a fenced yard with two furry dogs and one fluffy cat. I do daily walks as well as training to stimulate their mind.

About: *PLEASE READ* For House Sitting visits my dog Bucky will need to accompany me while im living nomadically. Feel free to ask any questions or concerns you might have about this and please take a moment to view some of the photos in my profile and read some reviews to get a better idea of the type of work we do with all creatures great and small! Every job I've done so far he has been with me with no issues. Meeting Bucky will undoubtedly answer some more difficult questions you might have about the quality of my pet care. Dogs are social animals and as humans we tend to spend so much time training them to be good we can forget we are the architects of their entire reality and to take time to just let them just be dogs. They're loud messy and impulsive. When we choose patience over frustration and offer comfort to a creature that cannot speak our language I feel that is engaging in the highest form of stewardship. A true non transactional act of service. I am currently living nomadically as a way to take my dog Bucky on his retirement journey of sorts. He DOES NOT have to participate in any tasks you hire me for but you can always opt in to that for free. **Please note that I cannot exclude my dog for over night stays at your location. Only walks and check-ins ect. My nomadic lifestyle is very much to your benefit, as it gives me a flexible schedule and the time and ability to focus on what you and your pets need. If you need a pet sitter for overnight or long-term care but aren't sure about having someone live in your home, that's fine! I just find a place to park. I am genuinely signed up for this because I would love to do it. All of it. Help me with Bucky's retirement journey by letting me help you take good care of your pets!

About: Hi! My name is Amanda! I am a Registered Veterinary Technician, and making sure pets are happy and healthy is my number one passion! I have been working in the veterinary field for 20+ years including some years in emergency and specialty medicine. I began pet sitting many years ago before college, I love taking care of pets on a regular basis and getting to know their favorite things and places to go. I always go above and beyond when I take care of your pet and home while you are away and always make sure to keep you updated with pictures and text or written notes about each stay or visit so you can know how your pet is doing! I have a vast amount of experience with medications, orthopedic care, senior pet care, pets with neurological disorders, post-surgical care, and so much more. I am upfront and honest about my schedule in advance so that you know what to expect. I am working as an emergency technician currently and my hours can vary. With planning, I can ensure I’m available to help out where I can! I routinely check your property for any damage to fences, open gates, or dangerous debris. On walks I make sure to have a well fitted harness or collar (harnesses are preferred) to prevent your baby from slipping loose in the event they get startled or spooked.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Tampa

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,269 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Tampa. 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 Tampa. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Tampa.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Tampa. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

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.

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