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: 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 from home/remote so I can provide 24/7 care when booking stays in your home. Allow me to give your fur babies the attention they deserve while you’re away (: 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.

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.

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.

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’ve taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years. I have animals of my own and family and friends can rely on me to help watch their animals. I’m off every Monday-Wednesdays so it’s convenient to watch animals during the weekdays. However I do have a roomate that could help out as well. I live in a large neighborhood, perfect for walks or runs. I also have space for animals to play inside and I live close to a few trails I can take the dog(s) there as well.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Thonotosassa on Rover is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $19 per walk. walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 6,807 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 bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Thonotosassa after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
