About: Hello! I’ve pet sat for a variety of pets for 7+ years with different weight and medical needs. I also used to work at a Veterinary Hospital in kennel and boarding services. Washing and nail clipping services are available upon request. I love pets and will treat them as my very own spoiled child with lots of pictures, love, and allowed treats. I’m available to petsit throughout the week. Dog walking will be limited during weekdays. Longer stays gets an extended discount. I request all pets to be on regularly treated with flea medication. Let me know if your pet is leash broken and if they’re socialized! There’s multiple dog parks around the west coast for Florida and I’d love to be able to get your lovelies the best care possible. If you have any further questions, please feel free to send me a message! I currently work from home 8:30 am - 4:30pm and can adjust scheduling when needed. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. I am unable to house pets in my home but am happy to make frequent visits or stay in the clients home if required. I take pet safety and care seriously as there's nothing in this world more precious than ensuring pet comfort and care.

“I always worry when I have to leave Stitch with someone but I know he is in good hands with Diane. He liked her a lot when they first met and played. She is great, reliable and always on time, someone you can trust with your furbaby.”

About: I am currently raising my second labrador retriever. Jackson is a highly energetic, friendly dog that loves his friends and loves to make new friends! Additionally, to raising my own dogs, I have sat for my friend's dogs for years both in my home and in their own home. I currently work from home and will accommodate all of your furry friend's needs as best as I can! I am currently working from home and have a dog of my own that keeps me busy! I have a very flexible schedule, and I do my best to accommodate all requests. My own dog is very social and friendly. I will always make sure your dog is cared for as I would care for my own. I do not charge extra for feeding, refreshing the water, or administering oral medication. My own dog has the run of the house - he either runs around in the yard or snuggles on the couch at his leisure.

About: I have lived in a pet loving home nearly my entire life, from cats and dogs to fish and snakes. This passion has led me to volunteer at Pet Pal Animal Shelter, a no-kill shelter, and work at Dogism Dog Daycare & Training as my first job! These combined have blessed me with a wealth of experience taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I work full-time, until 5 pm, Monday through Friday. Weekends are almost always available for me. Keeping my schedule separated between my full time work and pet caring ensures that your pet will have my full attention! Being entrusted to care for a pet at a client's home is never something I take lightly. I have experience giving medication, managing high-energy dogs, and cleaning up after pet messes, all with respect for the spaces they and their owners occupy.

“We were a little uneasy using the Rover app for the first time but needed a last minute sitter for our dog and cat. Linda was amazing and exceeded expectations. She took great care of our animals, communicated with us and followed up multiple times throughout the visit. Our dog was a little timid at first but quickly warmed up to Linda and loved the attention. Thank you and we will definitely book again ❤️”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid, and that lifelong love of pets is part of who I am. As a mother and pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and nurturing to care for your furry family members. I’ve raised and cared for both cats and dogs, and currently share my home with Penny, my lovable German Shepherd/Akita mix—so I’m very comfortable with big dogs. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. As a stay-at-home mom with a child in Kindergarten, I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to offer quality pet care during the week. I’m available on Monday through Friday from 9am to 2pm—perfect for midday walks, drop-in visits, or spending time with your pets while you're at work or running errands. I am also available for weekend care. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine, and I truly enjoy the break it brings to my day. I’m committed to providing loving, reliable care during those hours and making sure your pets feel happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and respect for their space. I always follow instructions carefully and make sure your pets stay in their familiar, comfortable environment. I’m mindful of routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs your pet may have. As a reliable and responsible caregiver, I treat your home with the same care I’d want for my own. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I work hard to ensure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

“Courtney took excellent care of my two cats, Chickie and Lars. Chickie needs daily meds, and Courtney had no problem giving them to her. She sent a picture of Chickie and Lars and let me know they were doing well. I would not hesitate to contact Courtney in the future to take care of my cats when away.”

About: I have an 12-year-old Dachshund who I’ve cared for since he was a puppy, and I’ve also helped care for my family’s pets over the years. I work from home, which allows me to give dogs the time, attention, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I enjoy walking dogs, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. My dog is very friendly, and dogs in my home are welcome on couches and beds. I also have small stairs and ramps by the couches and beds to make it easier for pups, especially smaller or senior dogs. I work from home as a Virtual Assistant, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I rarely leave the house except for quick errands, and even then I’m usually gone for no more than a few hours. My mother also lives with me, so your pet would never be alone. Our home environment is calm, safe, and full of attention. I take my own dog out for walks three times a day, and caring for animals is already part of my everyday rhythm. If I am pet sitting in your home, I can easily bring my laptop with me and continue working while still giving your pet plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I genuinely enjoy having pets around and love giving them affection throughout the day. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets receive regular walks, meals on their normal schedule, fresh water, and plenty of attention. Since I work from home as a Virtual Assistant, I’m able to supervise pets throughout the day and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep their routine consistent, whether that includes walks, feeding, playtime, or medication. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed, safe, and loved while their owners are away

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and would be happy to help take care of yours! I am comfortable with small, medium, large, and extra large sized dogs of all ages and have experience walking and pet sitting all sizes. I am an active person and thoroughly enjoy walking/swimming with dogs as well! My family raises seeing eye dogs for the blind, and working with such wonderful animals is a passion of mine. I understand that leaving a family member at home while you’re away can be difficult for both you and your dog, so I hope to alleviate some of that stress for you. Please feel free to reach out to me with additional questions. I am excited to meet you and your fur babies! I work from home and have a fenced yard! I can take frequent potty breaks and/or walks, and have the flexibility to be attentive to your pets needs throughout the day. I have a friendly black lab who loves everyone to keep your fur baby company. I also have a pool if your pup likes to swim!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for and training my own pets. My German Shepherd, Ayla, has given me extensive experience with training, routines, enrichment, understanding canine behavior, and basic behavior training. I’m comfortable reinforcing commands, leash manners, boundaries, and positive behaviors while keeping your pet’s normal training routine consistent. I’ve also cared for pets with different personalities, ages, and needs. As an ICU/trauma RN and Army veteran, I bring patience, reliability, attention to detail, and experience following specific care and medication routines. I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pet and your home. I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide drop-ins and walks throughout the week. I keep my availability updated and enjoy building relationships with repeat pets and their families. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll follow your normal routine and instructions closely, keep your home secure, and provide updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Kyla is phenomenal. She's quick to respond and is thorough and thoughtful with her responses. Incredibly sweet and our animals love her! She has the best Rover cards and getting pictures of my animals throughout the day from her visits are the best! 10/10, best Rover experience. Kyla is who you want to watch your pets!

Alex did a great job with my “kids” The doors to the house were locked … all 4 he would have used. The two water bowls were full and clean (no days of residue in the bottom ) Their dishes were clean and ready for the next meal . The cats litter boxes clean. For me it was having a stranger in my home that I was most concerned with… Alex came in, attended to the kids promptly, sent communication when needed and left the house. I am very pleased will use Alex in the future ☺️

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Tarpon Springs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Tarpon Springs on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 6,027 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Tarpon Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Tarpon Springs stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Tarpon Springs choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Tarpon Springs with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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 sitter.
