“Ashlee was wonderful with our 17 year old toy schnauzer. She is so calm and Bella was very comfortable. Great communication throughout. Will definitely use her services again”
“We were super happy with Marlene. This was our Cat, Tula's first few nights without us, other than an over nighter, when we were gone for less that 2 days. Marlene really cared about making sure Tula got adequate attention and treats before she left. I recommend her to anyone looking for a drop in sitter.”
“Kristen was AWESOME! She took care of my 2 kitties for 3 days and kept me informed all along the way. The Rover platform has live communications when visits are happening which is nice to have that piece of mind. Kristen followed up with pics and updates letting me know that all was well. Very happy with this service and loved working with Kristen. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies! Heather”
“Mary is the best. She communicated with us and sent us lots of pictures of our Cat Ray!!! She went above and beyond to help us with plants and clean up, check mail and brought in our trash. She is very professional and sweet. We have peace of mind knowing she was taking the best care of our boy. Thank you Mary you are the best!”
About: I have always had pets in my home, like dogs and/or cats, when I was in highschool many family friends and neighbors trusted me to pet sit for them while they would be away for a week or two. I would stay and play with the pets, feed them, and provide fresh water every day, go on walks, and keep in touch with the owners. I am in college and I work in a lab that cares for crested geckos where I feed them, and look at their environment levels (e.g. humidity) to make sure they are healthy! Caring for animals always brightens my day and I would be happy to care for your furry (or not) babies whether you are at work, or going on a trip! For the summer I am not in school, but I am doing participating in my lab for internship credits with this my schedule is pretty open on weekends and weekdays so I would be able to spend time with your pets however long they want or need! I would be able to do home visits, including drop-ins, staying etc. Whatever you feel comfortable with. I would follow what your pet needs like what kind of food, if there is any medications, any kinds of routines they have, etc. What I provide will depending on what the pet needs, like if they are an older dog or a couch potato I can do a slow walk or just chill and be a couch potato. Or if they are a very active pet I will dedicate play time or outside time. I would also be in contact with the owner if anything alarming occurs or even just a picture of your pet.
About: I am new to the Saint Pete area, and looking for a side job to keep me active and busy! I have some experience with training, puppies, and 10 years experience with a rescue who had behavioral issues with other dogs. My dog passed before my move and I’m hoping to stay connected to other dogs as my apartment here doesn’t allow me to have one of my own! I work remotely and can be somewhat flexible with my schedule to do visits during the day. I mostly spend the weekends around st pete so pretty open availability on the weekend! I am not able to bring your dog to my home, but I am more than happy to go to your home during the day or at night to let the dog(s) out on a leash or in a fenced in yard.
“Alison is amazing with our pitty, Sadie has always had anxiety issues and with only 2 drop in visits Sadie is giving her kisses and warming up so much to her. We are so thankful we have found Alison to be part of our babies life's”
“My fiance and I were out of town for a week, and Lisa came to check on our 2 cats twice per day while we were gone. She absolutely exceeds my expectations every time! She sent videos and pictures daily and made sure our 2 boys were safe and sound! Cannot recommend Lisa enough, she is THE BEST!”
About: I grew up with two dogs that filled my life with so much joy. I just want to give that to your dogs even if it’s just a walk, a check in, or even a long term service. I have open availability to care for your fur babies. I do have a part time job but will be able to schedule around those few shifts I have a week. My priority is your animals! I am very adamant on keeping all dogs on leash unless in a gated backyard or at a dog park dependent on how they interact with other dogs and owners wishes.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve had dogs of many different breeds my entire life, which has given me a deep understanding of their personalities and needs. I also worked in a shelter, where I cared for over 50 dogs, so I’m comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and special situations. I’m patient, attentive, and truly committed to making every dog feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs extra care, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I structure my day to make sure pets get regular walks, feeding, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I’m flexible with my schedule, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s needs—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I also make sure to dedicate quality time so pets feel comfortable, safe, and not alone. Caring for pets isn’t just something I fit in—it’s something I genuinely prioritize and enjoy every day. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I always follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean, comfortable space where they can relax and feel secure. I give them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their individual personality and energy level. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I’m very respectful of the home, keep everything clean, and make sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also pay close attention to behavior and health, and I’m comfortable caring for puppies, active dogs, and seniors who may need extra patience and care.
About: I own 2 cats myself and have taken care of/lived with a large dog before (German shepherd). I have more experience with cats but have taken care of multiple types of dogs. I am open to animals that may have some disabilities as well. I have experience taking care of blind dogs/senior dogs! I am located on st Pete beach but am open to the surrounding Tampa Bay Area. I work full time but it is a late/evening shift so I can be available during the day as well as nights after work. I like to care for pets based on the how the owners would like them to be cared for. I would appreciate some instruction and background on pets so I can understand them better.
About: All my life i’ve just loved animals. They bring so much joy and happiness into someone’s day. I believe that I can take great care of your precious pup whenever your in need. My family and I currently have 2 french bulldogs myself, one full of energy and my other is very relaxed and down to earth. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to take care of them while you are away on vacation or just out of town and enjoying yourself. Don’t worry tho, You came to the right person!! I’m a student at the University of Tampa! I’m best available Tuesday/Thursdays. However through discussion I’d possibly be able to make Monday/Wednesday/Friday work. Especially through the first two weeks into the semester starting Jan 19th to February 2nd! I currently have a 2 French bull dogs who are two are just 2 different characters! One is less maintenance, living to sleep and hang around all day while the other is super rambunctious. He loves belly rubs, frequently gets bursts of energy w/ the zoomies , loves treats and lots of attention so my family and always do our best to keep him active and in shape; Walks, Carrides, Jazz Music, Tv and Activities with toys tend to tire him right out. With a puppy, I know it can be a struggle but with the right methods, everything will slowly fall in to place. We of course always make sure he is well fed and constantly taken out.
About: As a dedicated pet lover with a unique edge, I stand out from the rest through my exceptional skills and experiences. With a needy yet lovable cat of my own, I understand the importance of catering to pets' specific needs. My feline friend has taught me the art of adventurous exploration, including leash walks and a constant need for companionship. Growing up with dogs has instilled in me a deep appreciation for canine companions, and I've honed my abilities to provide top-notch care for both dogs and cats. Whether it's training energetic puppies or offering gentle care for seniors, I bring a well-rounded approach to pet sitting that ensures tails keep wagging and whiskers keep twitching. Due to circumstances I am recently unemployed so my schedule is wide open and available to come watch your pet as much as you need! My approach to caring for pets is adaptable to both my own home and my clients' homes, based on the specific service required. When pets come into my home, I create a comfortable and safe environment that mimics their usual routines as closely as possible. This includes designated feeding times, regular walks, playtime, and cozy resting spaces. For dogs, I often take advantage of nearby parks or walking trails to ensure they get their exercise and mental stimulation. My own cat's love for exploration has inspired me to offer leash walks for dogs who enjoy outdoor adventures. In clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining the familiar surroundings that pets are accustomed to. I follow any provided schedules for feeding, medication, and playtime meticulously. This helps alleviate any stress or anxiety pets might experience while their owners are away. Whether it's ensuring litter boxes are clean, fresh water is available, or administering necessary medications, I am thorough and attentive. Additionally, I'm more than happy to accommodate any special requests, such as specific dietary needs or grooming routines. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a seamless experience for both pets and their owners, whether they're staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own homes. This consistency and personalized attention contribute to the overall well-being and happiness of the pets under my care.
“We have had two male tabby cats (litter mates) for 12 years. We lost one just before Courtney was to care for them recently. I made her aware that we lost one of our babies and she spent extra time bonding with our surviving cat. He has never been by himself before and I worried about that. She was wonderful and our kitty did very well! Courtney is great!”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs my whole life and love being around them! I have watched several of my friend's dogs and also volunteered at a couple of shelters so I have experience with different breeds and all sized dogs. I am a full time college student but I am flexible outside of my class schedule. When I'm not at school, I am home and willing to take care of your pet. I am also open to set schedules if that is easier. I live in an apartment complex that is very close to a dog park. I have one roommate who also loves animals and does not hesitate to show them love. I am a full time college student but on my own time outside of doing homework and being in class, I am eager to spend time and take care of your furry friends! Any pet I am watching will receive unlimited amounts of love and attention as well as any other specific needs your pup requires. I am happy to open up my space to your animals!

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.

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.
