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.

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.

“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!”

“Ivy is the best- such a great rover experience! I can tell she really put in the time and care for Cowboy :)”

“We were in a pinch during a volleyball tournament in St. Pete, needing someone last-minute to care for our two big golden retrievers (both over 100 pounds!). Mary was a lifesaver! She responded immediately on Rover, and from the first phone call, it was clear how experienced and caring she is. She even took the extra step of meeting our pups the day before to ensure everything was smooth. While we were away, she kept us updated with photos, videos, and messages, giving us total peace of mind. Mary was kind, professional, and thorough. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Five stars all the way! We’d absolutely trust her again next time we’re in town!”

“As always, Marlene is absolutely fabulous with our cats - they know and like her (which is hard to achieve!). She’s reliable and meticulous and we love the pictures she sends. 10/10 she is our go-to sitter when we travel.”

About: I grew up on a farm and have always owned pets, so I don't know a life without animals in it. I currently care for five senior pets. This allows me to connect with all animal personalities and treat them like family. I am able to adapt entirely to your dog's unique routine, whether that means managing high-energy play sessions, reinforcing basic training, or providing the gentle, patient, and specialized care that senior pets truly need to feel safe and secure. I just moved to the area and have a highly flexible schedule. Because I manage my own daily routine with plenty of adaptability, I can easily accommodate mid-day walks, strict feeding schedules, and extended playtime. Safety and open communication are my absolute priorities. I will strictly follow your specific household rules, crate routines, and feeding instructions to keep things consistent for your pet. I am highly proactive about environment awareness during walks, ensure all doors and gates are fully secure, and provide whatever you need so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away.

“Ali was incredible! She was very accommodating of my consistently-changing requests. And even more, she was awesome with our very big and energetic lab Riley. She quickly became his friend and made sure he was very well taken care of. Thank you, Ali!!!”

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: If you need someone to give your animal attention or let out some energy, I’m your girl. We can go for a walk, a run or throw the ball in a park. Just let me know what level of activity you wish them to have. I always bring water for the pups and will try my hardest to bring them back happier and exercised. I have all the patience for them to smell as many things as they want. Please message me for any questions big or small. Happy to do a meet and greet! I’m currently back in Tampa to help my parents out. Taking some time in between contract jobs. I often travel for work like Alaska, yachting or even Antarctica. So this is a fun thing for me to do while I am helping out family. I’m a great companion for a high energy dog who wants to run. I have also worked with families that need someone to watch their pet because they had surgery and can’t stay home from work to be with them. If possible I volunteer at animal shelters when I travel.

“Paul was super attentive and fantastic with our animals. You can rest assured that your pets are in great caring hands. Paul was responsive and sent updates and photos. Would love to hire them again for any pet sitting needs.”

About: I truly love animals and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means going on long walks, sticking to a routine, or simply providing companionship. I currently work evenings, which means I’m available during the day before 4 PM, 7 days a week! I understand that many pet owners need a reliable dog walker or pet sitter while they are at work, so my schedule works especially well for daytime walks and check-ins. I am also available for pet sitting throughout the week, including overnight stays. I care for pets by making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. I can maintain specialized feeding schedules and meals, provide walks and exercise for dogs of all energy levels, and make sure pets get plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day.

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.

“Cassandra helped me through a rough moment that I really appreciate. She was communicative and helpful. I waited years to use rover and this was my first time - right when I got a new puppy. She was great!”

“Thank you, Amy, for dropping in on Rasta. He was fed, let outside, and in the presence of good company! 🤗 Every time I tell him she will be checking in, he definitely gets excited, which helps me feel less guilty about not being with him for extending periods of time. 🥲”
