About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was a baby. I've raised and cared for four family dogs over the years: Nala (Black Lab), Holly (Golden Retriever), and my current dogs, Lucy (Golden Retriever) and Millie (Black Goldendoodle). Through caring for my own dogs, as well as dogs for friends and neighbors, I've gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, overnight care, cleaning up accidents, administering oral medications, and keeping dogs on their regular routines. I've cared for dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs, and have experience with potty training, anxious or shy dogs, high-energy pups, and large breeds. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, active, and incredibly affectionate. I truly love spending time with dogs, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a happy, comfortable pup. My goal is to care for every dog as if they were my own while giving pet parents peace of mind through reliable care, regular updates, and lots of love. I currently have a part time job and am a student at the University of South Florida so I have a pretty open schedule, and plenty of time to play with your pups! I work Tuesdays and Thursday mornings as well as every other weekend right now :) During every drop-in visit, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I'm happy to administer oral medications, follow special feeding instructions, and care for pets with different energy levels and personalities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how they're doing and have peace of mind while you're away. I want every visit to be a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
“Great communication and made sure my kitty got the full play time! She was on time and made sure to ask questions so he would get the best care possible ! ☺️ Will book again when I get the chance”
“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.”
“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.”
“Jennifer is incredibly sweet and genuine. I knew right away upon meeting her that she has a compassionate nature and passion for animals. She was able to drop in for me extremely last minute, and even came over late at night to get a meet and greet in the day before taking care of my dog Heidi. She’s great with dogs and cats, and is extremely reliable. She sends the sweetest pictures and updates. I feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Katie is the best!! She helped us with drop in visits for Bailey. She was kind, considerate, dependable and sweet with our pup. We will definitely be booking her again!”

“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.”
About: I volunteer frequently at shelters/farms nearby and am trusted to watch my loved ones’ animals frequently. I have learned how to care for animals with disabilities through my volunteering and am comfortable with very specific instructions if your pet requires them. I do a lot of dog sitting for neighbors/friends including dropping in to hang out with their pets and taking them for nice long walks. I am currently in a period between graduating from a professional program and starting a fellowship so I am free to drop in frequently! I am available to come in multiple times per day if needed. I love to play with animals and keep them entertained with toys! I like to stay active and bring pets along for walks if that is what you would like. I give lots of attention and pets to all animals and feel that they deserve lots of affection.
“Marcus was great! He does great with teddy who can be a handful, is always communicative and sends lots of pictures and videos. He was even able to accommodate my last minute trip for the holiday with no problem! Have booked him before and will definitely be booking him again!”
About: Hi y’all! I’ve been caring for dogs and other animals since I was 10 years old. I grew up on a farm for several years of my life and I got to care for many different animals! Cats, dogs, chickens, goats, pigs, rabbits, and a pony. I’ve also helped family and friends with their farm animals and pets as well. Friends, neighbors, family, and some strangers have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, including energetic puppies and senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind while they’re away. My last dog Buddy was actually 15 years old and I learned to take care of him very well. He has since passed away but my experiences and memories with him has made my love of animals grow even more! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I work during the day, but I am available before work, after work, and on weekends. I work 7-am every morning and don’t usually know when I’m done because it’s based on how fast I clean my clients yards. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each pet’s needs while providing reliable, consistent care and attention. I love all animals so they will all be getting the love and attention they need and want from me. I could cuddle all day🥰 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to my surroundings and your pet’s behavior to ensure they remain safe at all times. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Khanh was great! She sent us pictures everyday, including of her food bowl, etc. Felt very safe and reassured with our cat in her hands. She was quick and communicative and would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl, and we got our first cat just a few years ago but they’ve seem to have fallen in love with me lol. My main concern is making sure your pet is happy and comfortable, doesn’t matter the situation. I’m very gentle with them and I always make sure to communicate or ask when necessary, I don’t want to assume and be wrong or not inform you if something happens. I am in college, I have classes 3 days a week, so I’m home quite a bit. I do not currently work so I’m typically free the remaining days. I volunteer/workout in my free time so I can be flexible! Just ask if a day/time works, I’ll do my best to accommodate! I’m in an apartment so I don’t have a lot of space inside. The complex does have a little fenced in dog area, and there are some dog parks in the area that I would be willing to go to if you have a more active pet. I don’t have anything toxic in the apartment, or in a place they could reach at least (medicines/rubbing alcohol, that sort of stuff). I also like going on longer walks, 20-30 min if the weather is nice.
“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!”
About: I’ve had a love for animals as far as my memory goes! I’ve gotten lucky enough to raise and care for just about every household animal you can think of. I had the pleasure of caring for my elderly childhood blue nose pit which has shaped my experience. From providing medicine to assisting with stairs, getting into cars, ETC. I love to cuddle with couch potatoes but also am very active and enjoy playtime! I work in office 8-5 Mon-Thurs and work from home on Fridays. I’ll be available anytime after 5 Mon-Thurs and can provide full time care from Thursday night to Sunday night! As a dedicated pet sitter, my primary focus is ensuring safety and trust for both you and your fur babies. I bring a blend of experience and passion to every pet care assignment. My approach is centered on maintaining a secure and comfortable environment in your home, tailored to your specific pet’s needs! I prioritize clear communication and will provide regular updates and photo check-ins so you can feel confident and connected when away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Temple Terrace
Kailia was so nice and flexible with her schedule. We made our booking last minute and made a further last minute reservation change. Kailia stepped up and really made our time away from home feel special as we knew we had someone truly reliable to take care of our girl.
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!
Madeline was absolutely wonderful with my two orange cats, Wall-E and Eva. She sent photos and updates every visit, followed all my detailed instructions perfectly, and I could tell she genuinely cared about their wellbeing. I was traveling for family emergency for 7 days and had complete peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Definitely going to book her for my next trip. Highly recommend!

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.
