About: Since childhood I have always been the one tasked with taking care of the family pets and then the neighborhood pets. I am an attentive walker and can't wait to sit your pets! I do gig work so I am available to whomever reaches out first. I have used dog walkers for many years and would love to provide the same service back for others! I pay attention to details and any notes or directions you leave. I have reliable transportation and plenty of experience with dogs. No pet will be left unhappy in my care.
“Estefany is such a great care taker for Ellie. She is so kind, communicates well and often and genuinely cares for our pet. I highly recommend her to anyone who is willing to give her an opportunity to care for your pet.”
“Will definitely reach out to her again soon when I need help with my boy! Aliyah was quick to respond and I needed someone the day of and she was able to make it happen. She made this whole process really easy for me so I really appreciated that”
“Erin was great with my boy! She was super attentive to and provided updates throughout our time away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care for their dog while they’re away from home.”
“Nicol of course took care of our cats food, water, and litter needs, but the social time she spent with them was invaluable. One of our cats is very skittish and hides whenever anyone comes over, but Nicole was the first person he would come out to meet and be petted by.”
“Hillary made me feel comfortable traveling while she was taking care of my kitties! She checked in with me and always sent great pictures and videos. Thanks, Hillary!!!”
“My first experience on Rover...AJ is absolutely wonderful with my frenchie! Check ins are on time and so thorough, it is an absolute delight to know my fur baby is getting some loving and checked on while I am away. HIGHLY recommend 10/10 ✨️”
About: Throughout my entire life I’ve taken care of all types of animals big and small, from neighbors Great Danes to family rabbits, I’m able to handle animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to meeting your pet no matter the animal! ♡ I do work part time at Outback Steakhouse and also do pet care to help pay for all of my bills due to this I’m more busy on the weekends and tend to struggle booking around then but I will do my best to accommodate and be flexible for your fur and furless babies!!! In the past I have had animals that were both inside and outside as well as animals who were muzzle, and crate trained meaning I have experience handling both as well as experience walking a variety of dogs. Currently I live with my cat Nugget who I handle all daily care for!
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Jennifer went above and beyond—handling our dog’s medication during thunderstorms and fireworks with calm, attentive care. Jennifer was so in tune with our dog’s needs, even noticing an issue and handling it quickly and thoughtfully. We loved getting regular updates and came home to a happy, relaxed pup. Truly grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and kind. Highly recommend!”
“Bianca was a great sitter! Kind and communicative throughout the entire process and took good care of our fur baby :) Appreciated that she shared updates and pictures during each drop-in visit. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Danni was absolutely great! She made sure both of our cats had fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and plenty of pets, and provided detailed updates for each check in. We would be more than happy to book with her again!”
“Annalise was great! She took care of my cats while I was away and gave me peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and sent thoughtful updates with photos after every visit. It was clear she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after.”
About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, dogs that need medication, and dogs with seizure disorders. I also have a dog child that is a mini Goldendoodle, Clover, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home while going to school full time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that lets me give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to stick to their routine. I truly enjoy caring for animals, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ** I will consider long term pet/house sitting by request ** I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to medications, crate time, playtime, and any other preferences you have to help them feel comfortable and at home.
“Super easy going and easy to talk too, Our dog Remy loved her from the jump. She left Remy a stocking full of toys and treats for when we got back super sweet and thoughtful AND she fixed our dog food storage issue with a new dog food container, Kathryn is the bomb and we cannot recommend her enough!”
“I highly recommend Kailia! She went above and beyond during every visit with our sweet senior girl. Marley absolutely loved seeing her, and it was clear from the very beginning that Kailia genuinely loves animals. She kept us updated with detailed visit summaries and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Knowing Marley was receiving such loving, attentive care meant the world to us. We are so grateful for Kailia and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, she’s the one!”
About: I have been a pet parent for many years and understand that every pet is unique. I currently share my home with two Huskies and four cats ranging in age from 3 to 20 years old, giving me experience caring for pets at every stage of life. One of my greatest joys has been caring for senior pets and learning their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I understand that older pets often require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I also have experience with energetic dogs, independent cats, and the many different personalities that make our pets so special. I treat every animal as an individual and will provide the same loving, dependable care that I would want for my own pets. I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. I am able to offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting while making sure each pet receives individual attention and care. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my routine and taking the time to provide more than just the basics—making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their families are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets is a big responsibility, and I will treat both your pets and your home with respect. During visits, I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routines, provide meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, litter box care, and any needed medications. I will pay attention to your pet’s behavior and communicate with you through updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I believe pets are family, and I will care for yours with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own.
“I came back to one happy dog. He usually runs up to me so happy to see me, but he didn't this time (well, not as much). This tells me that he was taken care of as well as I take care of him. I chose the right person. I'm glad I gave Rover.com a second chance. She's my new permanent dog care provider.”
About: As a pet-parent to two kitties, I understand the stress it is to find someone trustworthy of taking care of your pets. I have been a reliable pet-sitter since I was 15 and send photo updates daily. I have experience in all sizes, ages and breed for either cats or dogs. I frequently take care of my friends' and relatives' pets when they are out of town. I work part time so I have a lot of flexibility. I am currently working part-time and can commute anywhere within the Tampa/Brandon area. I believe pet care is a top priority for all pet parents and I am dedicated to making it mine as well. Currently, I own two kittens who are my best friends. I found them on the street when they were 2 months and have nursed them to health since then and now they are hyper, happy cats. Therefore, I have experience in giving them all forms of medicine if needed.

Jennifer gave me complete peace of mind while I was out of state for my cat! She gave awesome updates in rover, spent time trying to get to know my very shy kitty, and left my apartment very clean. Great communication and super sweet person. Couldn’t recommend more
We are truly grateful for Hillary's wonderful care of our cats. She was so attentive to every detail we asked for and quickly gained their trust. We genuinely appreciate her helping us feel at ease while we were away. Hillary also shared very helpful information every single day.
Love love love Marie!!! She was so attentive and sweet with my cat, Sushi. She made sure to keep me updated, sent me pictures, and tidy up the house in the smallest ways! You can tell she loves being with animals and that she knows exactly what she’s doing. We can’t wait to see her again!
Brooklyn was a great pet sitter! She followed all of my instructions to a T, checked in on my cat, and tried to play with her as much as she could. She took care to go above and beyond what was asked of her, which I really appreciated. I will definitely book with Brooklyn again if she is available the next time I am out of town!
Victoria was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly communicative, sent lots of updates and pictures. She was so sweet, thoughtful, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell she genuinely cared for my cat, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Temple Terrace 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,683 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Temple Terrace. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
