“Iliana took very good care of my baby girl. She kept the house clean, communicated with me daily, and followed the instructions I left. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous to trust a stranger but I was pleased with the outcome and would use Iliana again.”
“Christian was wonderful! Very friendly and patient with our dogs upon meeting them. Was able to help us with last minute walking needs. We will definitely continue to use his services and would absolutely recommend to others 😄”
“Amazing peace of mind having Annaliese check in on my two dogs. I have shibas and they can be a little cautious with new people, but they warmed right up to her! She was helpful with a last minute booking I needed and was on time! Great sitter, i’d work with her again and recommend her to my pet parent friends!”
“Tina has been great with our nervous pittie :) she has great communication and always leave a detailed report card after the walks. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Thank you for all you do with Winnie! We can see how excited she is to see you and how sweet and gentle you are with her. We have seen a real impact with her mobility when we take her in her evening walks - she is so confident on the sidewalks now!”
About: I have over a year of hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, along with 5 years experience dog walking and pet sitting for clients. Working with animals every day taught me how to handle different temperaments and energy levels while making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need extra patience or specialized care. I’m comfortable and familiar with administering medications, following special feeding instructions, and keeping up with specific routines and care needs. Whether your pet enjoys lots of playtime and walks or prefers a calmer environment and quiet attention, I always try to make sure they feel relaxed and happy while you’re away. I make it a priority to provide dependable care, updates (photos and videos included), and plenty of attention so owners can feel confident their babies are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already have consistent experience working around dogs and structured care environments. I’m generally flexible throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, and I’m comfortable adjusting my schedule based on a pet’s needs. I’m used to early mornings, midday check-ins, and evening care routines from my time working at a doggy daycare, so I’m able to stay consistent with feeding, walks, and medication schedules. I prioritize reliability, so once I commit to a booking, I make sure I’m fully available and on time for every visit. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize following all instructions exactly as given to maintain the pet’s normal routine and comfort. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure before walks and that pets are supervised at all times. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can respond quickly if anything seems off or if they need extra reassurance. I also keep the environment calm, clean, and stress free, and I respect the client’s home by leaving everything as I found it. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and make sure owners feel confident their pet is safe and well cared for.
“Allison was great! Super friendly and communicative. My plans changed but she was super flexible and understanding and she was great with my hyper puppy. We would definitely have her back!”
“I highly recommend Ava! She was punctual, communicated well, and gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in great hands. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again or recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”
“Elizabeth was able to help me out when both my primary and back-up dog walkers were both out of town. Always on time and sent good updates. Would definitely hire her again.”
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Through pet sitting, rescuing, and fostering, I've learned that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, compassionate care. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a shy cat, or a senior pet, I make sure their daily routine stays as consistent as possible. I provide fresh food and water, clean living spaces, exercise, play, enrichment, and plenty of affection while always paying close attention to their comfort and well being. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. I work part time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care seven days a week. Whether you need daytime visits, overnight stays, or even late night check ins, I'm happy to work around your pet's routine to make sure they receive the care and companionship they need. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I understand how stressful it can be to leave a beloved pet, so I also make it a priority to earn and maintain your trust. I'll follow your pet's routine, respect your home, and provide the level of communication that makes you feel comfortable. Whether you prefer regular photo updates, detailed messages, or even video calls, I'm happy to keep you connected and give you peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies and senior pets. I’m patient, attentive, and take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level. I focus on creating a calm, loving environment and always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with pet parents through regular updates and photos. Pet care fits into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check ins to ensure each pet gets consistent care and attention. I’m home full time and able to be flexible, which allows me to give pets the time, patience, and routine they need to feel comfortable and at home. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine with feedings, walks, playtime, and affection. I focus on safety, cleanliness, and comfort in both my home and clients homes.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 13 years, ever since I got my own pup. I grew up helping friends and neighbors with their pets—walking, feeding, playing, and keeping them company while their owners were away. I truly love animals and treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog that needs extra care, I’m attentive, patient, and always reliable. I’m a college student at USF, so I have classes Mondays and Wednesdays. However, my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m always open to working out the best way to take care of your pets! I’m very attentive and gentle with pets, always following your instructions. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for as if they were mine.
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. **Please do not book boarding for the weekend if your pet cannot handle being alone for 12-13 hours (in regards to going to the bathroom), as I work every weekend** I am in college and I work full time. I typically work 3-12 hour shifts a week, but my class schedule is more flexible. Please just ask if a date/time works and I will let you know! 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.
“Chloe was fantastic, punctual and on time. Provided photos and updates on the walks. Made sure my pup had some play time day to day and kept her routine, highly recommend Chloe!”
About: I started caring for dogs by the age of 13. Since then, I have been a reliable and safe pet sitter. I have grown up and taken care of larger dogs, which is where most of my experience has come from. I have cared for little and medium-sized dogs. I love quality time with the animals. Pet-sitting isn't just about letting them out and feeding them; it's about quality time. All dogs have a unique personality, and I love learning about who they are. That way, even when you're away, they are not alone. Hi Tampa furry pet owners! I am transitioning to college within the next month! I will be a full time college student, but i have a lot of open time between classes and only have two classed per day. That being said, I have plenty of time in the in-between of other activities to spend time with the animals. I will be looking at getting a job eventually, but until then, I have a lot of time for your furry animals. I work and live my best life with a schedule, so its no hassle to add in a furry animal in the mix! In the client's home, I will make sure all doors and fences are locked before and after my time over at the place. Lights will be off unless told otherwise. It will only be me in your home with your pets for safety purposes. All rules and directions will be followed, and I am not hesitant to reach out and ask questions because your pet's well-being and safety is important to me.
“Lauren did a fantastic job with walking my pet and she made me feel at ease. I loved how well she communicated with me. The most important impact was how she interacted with my dog. Her calm spirit helped my dog so much! Thank you for helping my precious dog and our family. 💯 appreciated this wonderful experience using Rover for the first time.”
“Joycemar treats Heidi like she’s her own baby. Heidi is always so happy to see her! She spoils her so much and gives her all the love and attention she needs when I’m working my 12 hour shifts 🥰”
“Sophia is the best! She was so accommodating to my last minute request and showed up exactly on time. She took the best care of my sweet boy and was so patient with him! Sophia also took the time to take pictures/ videos and gave me a detailed update of how my dog was doing! I would definitely recommend her and look forward booking with her again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Temple Terrace
Jasmine has been AMAZING with taking my dog baby on walks during the week when I work! It has been such a help since I have longer work day. She is trustworthy and always gentle and caring of my dog. She goes above and beyond to even defend and make sure she is safe!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Emma was amazing! She responded on very short notice, took great care of Joy, kept me updated, and was so kind and attentive. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Joy was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!
Julianna was amazing with my English bulldog, Sabel! She communicated clearly throughout the entire walk, kept me updated, and made me feel totally at ease. Bulldogs can be a bit particular, and she handled Sabel with patience and care. I could tell Sabel was comfortable and happy, which means everything to me. I’d absolutely recommend Julianna to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and trustworthy dog walker. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.
Alexa was very kind and compassionate, and she knew how to communicate with my dog on his level, which was super important for me when picking a dog walker. My dog is very picky with who he trusts, but he gravitated towards Alexa because she made him feel comfortable. Alexa is also very easy to work with, and she was always quick to reply. If you want a reliable dog walker with a big heart for animals, Alexa is the way to go!

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 Temple Terrace. 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.

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 Temple Terrace. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
