About: I am a passionate animal advocate dedicated to rescuing, fostering, and finding loving homes for animals in need—especially those waiting in kennels. Every day, I work tirelessly to share resources and connect animals with the families they deserve. In addition to rescue work, I have a deep love for spending time with dogs. If you choose to have your dog stay with me, you can expect a highly personalized and attentive experience. I care for one client at a time, ensuring full-time companionship and individualized attention. My home is truly animal-centered. Dogs enjoy a crate-free, free-roaming environment with access to a full acre of outdoor space and 6ft fence to explore and play. We also share our home with multiple cats, so visiting dogs must be cat-friendly. Animals are at the heart of everything I do, and I would love to learn more about you and your beloved companion. Doggie Day Play is Here – Come Join the Fun! Let your pup enjoy a day filled with play, love, and personalized care. Why Choose Me?

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.

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!

About: Hi! If you’re looking for someone who will love your pet like their own, you’ve found the right sitter. 🐾 Animals have always been part of my life—I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and just about every animal you can imagine. The longest I’ve ever gone without a pet is only a year or two, so caring for animals truly feels second nature to me. I’m also a certified dog trainer with past experience working with shelter dogs. While I’m not offering formal training, I’m very comfortable reading behavior, reinforcing routines, and helping pets feel calm and confident during their time with me. I always respect your house rules and your pet’s unique needs. Most importantly, I focus on making your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m a big cuddler, and if your dog loves exercise, I’m a runner who’s happy to help them burn off energy too! My goal is for you to relax knowing your pet is in kind, capable, and loving hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work remotely, which allows me to bring my work with me and be present with your pet throughout the day. Most days, your pet will have plenty of companionship, attention, and flexibility built into my schedule. I do have occasional in-person tutoring and aerial classes during the week, usually totaling no more than 3–4 hours on weekdays, though those hours can vary. I’m also in the National Guard and attend drill once a month, but I do my best to keep my availability updated so there are no surprises. If you’re looking for constant care or someone with your pet 24/7, I’m happy to accommodate with at least two weeks’ notice. Overall, pet care is a priority for me, and in most cases, your pet will get the majority of the day spent with me—being loved, cared for, and kept company. I offer all my services in your home, so your pet can stay cozy in their familiar space—no stress, no big routine changes. 🐾 I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving plenty of love, cuddles, and attention throughout the visit. I follow all instructions to a T—whether it’s feeding, playtime, exercise, or special routines—so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and safe. If I ever cared for pets in my home, I’d make sure it’s safe for everyone, including my cat Luna and my grandmother. But for now, your pet stays right where they belong—at home, loved, and in good hands.

About: Hi! I bring experience from working at a dog boarding facility, and a pet sitting/dog walking business (Woofies of South Tampa). I’ve trained puppies, cared for senior pets, and grew up surrounded by animals, including three family dogs and two cats. This hands on experience helps me provide attentive, reliable, and loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs! I want every pet parent to have complete peace of mind, knowing their fur baby is getting all of the love, exercise, attention, and care :) Having a flexible schedule allows me to make pet care my top priority. I customize each day to provide walks, meals, playtime, and loving care for every pet. I care for pets in their own home, maintaining their routine with feeding, walks, play, and affection to ensure comfort, security, and a stress free experience.

About: I have hands-on experience fostering rescue dogs, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, ages, and needs. I regularly pet sit for friends and family, including both dogs and cats, and I’m confident with daily care routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and providing consistent attention. I also have CNA healthcare experience, which has strengthened my reliability, patience, and attention to detail. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety and comfort. I currently live in a pet-free home, which allows me to board animals in a calm environment without other animals getting in the way. With a flexible schedule and 24+ hours’ notice, I’m able to accommodate a range of pet care requests including boarding, sitting, and drop-ins. I prioritize reliability, communication, and creating a calm, consistent experience for every pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and attentive care in every booking. As a responsible dog owner, I’m confident handling dogs of different temperaments and enjoy taking them on regular walks. You can feel assured your dog will be safe, cared for, and well looked after with me.

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.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I went through the vet program in high school where I learned how to professionally take care of unfamiliar dogs. I have also owned my own pups too. For my services i also have the additions of baths and training which can be arranged and the meet and greet. The baths include nail clipping/grinding, teeth cleaning and ear cleaning. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry friends while they are in my care. Safety is the main priority. When it comes to walks, drop ins, and house sitting I make sure to leave your home and your pet exactly how I found them (or better!) When your pets are in my house I never leave them alone uncrated or without water.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Thonotosassa

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Thonotosassa on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 6,789 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Thonotosassa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Thonotosassa. 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. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Thonotosassa.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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 Thonotosassa. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
