“They were so accommodating and took excellent care of our puppy while we hit the theme park all day. It was so easy and close by that I would give them 10 stars if I could. I highly recommend them to anyone!!”
“This is my dog’s second time coming to Haley and he is lowkey obsessed with her. She was very communicative to us and responded really quick. The photo she gave us of Jin was so cute! Definitely recommend.”
“Such a great experience leaving my pup with Hillary! She greeted us at the door with a big smile and hello and was so communicative throughout the night! She was sending updates and videos, without me having to ask. One of the best experiences I’ve had with a sitter. Thanks, Hillary, Loki can’t wait for his next day with you!!”
About: A big part of my childhood was fostering litters of kittens and learning how to take care of them with my mom. Growing up with more than 3 dogs in my house at all times all throughout my childhood has allowed me to gain knowledge of feeding schedules, being able to read a dogs mood alone and when interacting with others, and I’ve had the pleasure of learning how to take care of dogs with disabilities. I currently work part-time five minutes away from where I live, and my shifts are not excruciating long so I will be able to give your fur babies plenty of attention. I live in an apartment in south tampa with plenty of dog parks to explore! My roommate has two very friendly cats who like to sleep all day.
“Glad to have our first experience with Rover with them. They sent me updates and were really understanding that my dog is not yet fully house trained. Sherlock was worn out when we took him back, probably from playing with the other dogs at their home. Our dog was evidently happy with his stay. We are very satisfied!”
“She’s absolutely amazing. My babies loved her! She’s very informative and caring. I love that she kept me posted on their wellbeing and progress throughout the day while I was out working. Definitely recommend her as future use of service.”
“Marisol was amazing! Was able to accommodate a last-minute booking which really helped me out. She was very helpful and thoughtful, sent pictures and updates and was very responsive in communication. I highly recommend!”
“Carley was great! I had no doubt from the moment I met her and her sweet fur baby that my little guy would be fine. Clean and comfortable home, would book again if I’m back in the area.”
“Iyorima was amazing! Jin loved her and got used to her fairly quickly. I get paranoid pretty easily and she understood and sent me photos and text messages about Jin to calm me down. Jin was a happy boy when he was there and that’s all I care about.”

“We were happy with Duke's stay. Marcus was able to accommodate a last minute and late night daycare. He sent us pictures, and updates to let us know Duke was okay. When we arrived for pick up, Duke seemed relaxed, and not in a rush to get back home. Duke had several dogs to play with while there, so he came home tired and well behaved. We would recommend Marcus.”
“Chante is so reliable! Our plans had a last minute change and the morning of, Chante was able help us out and watch our girl for the day. Nola loves playing with Makeda and I know I can always count on Chante to be attentive and keep us in the loop throughout her care!”

I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
“My dog, Harlan, is a rescue we've had for a year. We recently had an event at our house that included over 30 adults and children who he has never met. I decided a pet sitter. Was a good option. Harlan was very nervous when we got to Christopher's house., but Christopher gained his trust quickly. A feat still not accomplished by friends Harlan knows well. Would definitely recommend.”
“We’ve had Rebecca watch my girl every week for the past month or so, and she has been the absolute best! She always makes sure Rani has ample time to play and have so much fun! It’s nice not having to worry about how she’s doing while I’m at the office ☺️”
“Buddy loved it at Trevor‘s house more than any other sitter he’s been with since we’ve been in Tampa. I think Trevor is his favorite so I will definitely be bringing him back. He took excellent care of buddy.”
“Makenzi was great! My dog had so much fun and was well taken care of. She was given her medication as directed. My dog loved running around in the backyard with the other dogs and got along great with the cats. Definitely recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Temple Terrace
We had Stephanie watch our small dog, Keelie, for several hours while we visited the Aquarium in Tampa. She communicated well though Rover, asking questions about any special needs for our dog. She did a wonderful job, meeting us at the door and again asks if there were any special instructions for taking care of Keelie. She only had Keelie for about 3.5 hours. she took her on two walks and gave her some treats. Overall, we were very happy with her care, and she was fairly conveniently located in the Tampa area. I would definitely use her again.
Annabel was amazing! She was able to take my dog at the very last minute and went above and beyond to be flexible, accommodating, and understanding. This was my very first time leaving my dog with someone, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made me feel completely at ease and took such great care of my dog. I’m so grateful for all of her help—thank you again, Annabel!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Temple Terrace commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.

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.
