“Carly provided an exceptional level of care, both of our elderly dog and our home. We didn’t have one worry while we traveled as she followed every request in a most conscientious manner. Our dog was so happy to have personalized home care from Carly, a true animal lover.”


About: I tested myself with my first dog at age 12, now with both sisters starting to become seniors, I have had experience with all age groups of dogs and cats. On top of that I have pet sat many dogs including 7 bull dogs at a time, which required much attention due to their high maintenance nature. I would mainly be doing this in the mornings and afternoons, as I have part time job and a student. But I am open to some weekends. I make sure my dog is walked on a daily basis both day and night making sure she lets everything out before going in, I also stay on top of feeding and taking care of her.
About: I have a cat at home. I grew up raising an old lab and a young energetic cockapoo. My sisters also had 3 dogs (golden retriever, yorkie, english spaniel), 5 cats, and 8 chickens that I pet sat frequently. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds and ages and love caring for all of them 🫶 I am in Tampa on a clinical rotation for part of my Doctorate or Physical Therapy program. I had to leave my cat at home while i’m here so i miss my baby! I love cats and small dogs and would love to help take care of yours while i’m missing mine! I am a vegetarian and could never imagine hurting an animal much less a pet. I care for all pets like they are apart of my own family.
“I had such a great experience with Kiran! She kept me updated throughout the day and sent lots of pictures of Franklin, which I really appreciated. It gave me so much reassurance seeing how happy and comfortable he was. She was very responsive and even accommodated having a friend pick him up, which made everything super easy. She took him on long walks, played with him, and made sure he was entertained and well cared for the entire time. It truly gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while I was away on vacation. I would absolutely book with her again.”

“Jen has been so kind to our two animals. She has been great with their special needs of pilling and monitored feeding. When I returned home after my dog and cat spending a week with Jen, they were happy and healthy. 10/10 I will rebook with Jen.”

“Ryan was an absolute awesome sitter for our little Luna. He was very accommodating and came a little early per our request to bond with Luna and give her time to feel comfortable around him. She seemed very comfortable and happy and wanting to play. Ryan was very respectful and helped also keep things tidy , bringing in our packages and mail. We definitely will book with Ryan again for our next trip.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind my whole life, with a special passion for large breeds. Growing up with my own large dogs and walking neighborhood dogs throughout high school and college has given me hands-on experience with all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with dogs — especially the big ones who need plenty of exercise and attention. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight sitting, or just some quality playtime, I’m committed to keeping your dog happy, safe, and well-cared for. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m available every day until 2pm, plus evenings and weekends for boarding, drop-ins, or walks. Whether you need morning playtime, midday check-ins, or full overnight stays, I can work around your schedule to keep your dog happy and well-cared for. I prioritize leash safety and secure handling on every walk. With years of experience, I’m confident walking large and even reactive dogs using proper techniques and equipment to keep everyone safe. Your pup will receive calm, attentive care in a supervised setting. I’m experienced with all sizes and personalities.
“Hope was great and took excellent care of Rocky. She was responsive, easy to communicate with, and made sure he had a great time. Rocky is basically a little trash panda, but she kept a close eye on him and made sure he didn’t get into anything he shouldn’t. I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I’d definitely book with her again.”

“Ambria was amazing at watching my dogs over the holidays! She checked in multiple times a day, sent lots of pictures, and the dogs seemed really happy/well taken care of. She left the house spotless and I am looking forward to using her in the future!”

“Avery was absolutely amazing! Our dogs loved her and she left our house incredibly neat and clean. I would absolutely suggest her to everyone and I plan to use her again!!”


“Blair took wonderful care of my dog Ollie while pet sitting this past weekend. I received sweet pictures and updates about him while I was away and my house was well kept and clean upon my return as well! Highly recommend to anyone around the Tampa area who needs a quality dog sitter while they’re away!”

“Jenna did a great job communicating while taking care of our dogs! It was clear she spent a lot of her time with them making sure they were comfortable while we were on vacation. Would definitely recommend her to dog sit!”

“Jordan was fantastic! She took excellent care of my beloved Teddy, and also handled a construction project going on while at my house. I have nothing but great things to say about Jordan and plan on using her services again.”

“We can't say enough good things about Patricia! We have booked her several times now and our 3 dogs absolutely lover her. She stayed at our house and did a fantastic job caring for all the dogs especially the one with special instructions. We were pleased to see that our dog's hotspot had improved while gone reaffirming that Patricia took great care of the dogs. We received lots of photo updates while gone and the dogs appeared to be having as great of a vacation as we were. Thank you Patricia!”

April was amazing! Our Bella dog was well cared and hardly missed us! April learned her schedule, her favorite activities and even rotated her walks so that Bella wasn't out in the heat of the day. April kept us posted - a challenge due to the time delays and internet challenges, but we thoroughly enjoyed the pics and videos she shared. April also managed our home in our absence and went above and beyond - helping us navigate and AC issue from oversees. Additionally, we came home to a clean house, some homemade treats and a lovely personal note. I highly recommend April to anyone looking for a solid, reliable and capable adult to care for their home and pets.

Carolina went above and beyond! She did amazing with our three energetic herding dogs and they absolutely loved her. She sent tons of videos of her playing with them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also left the house in great shape, and we came home to three happy, content pups. Highly recommend her! We will definitely be contacting her again in the future. Thank you so much, Carolina!

Hailey was absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She recently house sat for me while caring for my two dogs, Archie and Griffin, and she exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met, Hailey was warm, professional, trustworthy, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She took exceptional care of Archie and Griffin, giving them so much attention, affection, and excellent care while I was away. She also provided updates and photos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Not only did Hailey take wonderful care of my dogs, but she also looked after my home with the utmost respect and care. I returned to a spotless house and two very happy, relaxed pups—a true testament to the love and attention she gave them. It is such a gift to be able to travel knowing that both your pets and your home are in such capable and caring hands. Hailey went above and beyond in every way, and I would not hesitate to have her house and dog sit for me again. If you’re considering Hailey, book her with complete confidence—you and your pets will be incredibly fortunate to have her!

Hope is the best! She house sat in our home for a 3-night stay and it was a fantastic experience working with her. She arrived early, handled our stubborn and blind senior dog with patience, and our home was in perfect condition when we got back into town. On top of all that, there was an unexpected A/C outage during her stay, which she never once complained about and she helped fix!. We are looking forward to working with her again soon.

Patricia was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and the whole process was great. The meet and greet gives you a chance to interview each other to make sure you have a good fit. My pup seemed very happy and Patricia provided lots of pictures throughout her stay.

David stayed with our boys this weekend and he was wonderful. Stayed in touch and kept us informed. Was the perfect houseguest and we came home to happy fur babies and a house that was in the same condition that we left it in. We will be using David again in the near future and I am truly happy that we found someone so caring and genuine.

Highly recommend! We had a unique request that she was very open minded to. We had a big party and wanted someone to attend to the dogs with us around. Elena is so sweet and incredibly flexible, even moving them around to quieter space so they stayed calm and out of the way during the arrival of guests. She was nice, very reliable, and got the job done perfectly. I look forward to her sitting for us again.

Alexandra did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our two golden retrievers during our 10-day vacation! From the start, she was incredibly communicative and kept us updated with tons of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She spent so much time playing with them, keeping them happy, active, and loved. She even asked permission before treating them to pup cups, such a thoughtful and considerate touch! It was clear our dogs were having the best time and were in wonderful hands. We came home to two very happy pups and a stress-free experience. We highly recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive house sitter/pet sitter!

Averi helped with a last minute booking, which I was super grateful for. While she was house sitting, the fire alarm went off and she carried my dog and his stroller down nine flights of stairs like a superhero. Everything went wrong during my night out, but she handled it like a pro.
