“We are so happy we were able to book Kylee last minute for our 4 months old kitten! She showed up promptly at each scheduled drop-in and took care of everything Pixel needed while we were away. Litterbox cleaning, feeding, so much play time and cuddle sessions plus plenty of treats to keep Pixel quite happy! We also got a ton of photo updates with each visit which helped ease some of my worry about leaving our kitten home for the first time but she made sure to communicate consistently and we had nothing to worry about. We will definitely book Kylee again int the future!”

“Kelsey did an amazing job with my cat. She listened to directions, showed up consistently, and gave very good care...She put effort in to provide him a safe friend while I was away. She also did a few extra things that were above cat sitting. I felt lucky to find her, highly recommend.”
“Linzey was so good with my three boys my cats Especially my one that has cardiomyopathy he takes medicine for He ended up getting real sick, while I was away on a cruise Linzey did everything she could to get him to an emergency hospital because he was in critical condition Even though I didn’t have great service she did everything she could to inform me and she let me know at the hospital what was going on If it wasn’t for her he wouldn’t have made it. She was great with my other two cats as well. I will definitely be using her again”
“Sydney does an amazing job taking care of my dog Bronsan while I’m at work! He always has a fun time hanging out with her. She does a perfect job showing up on time to his walks and does great communicating with me. Even recently, she protected my dog from an unleashed pitbull attack so I don’t think it gets any better than that. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Armando was absolutely amazing with my dogs over the holidays. He truly went above and beyond, taking the time to brush them, making sure they were comfortable and happy, and even responding promptly and kindly when there were a few accidents in the house. It was clear he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after, not just doing the basics but treating them with real attentiveness and compassion. Having that level of care and reliability gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t recommend Armando more highly.”
About: Hi, I'm Mike! I'm 26 years old, a Florida native, and a lifelong animal enthusiast! I grew up on a farm outside of St. Augustine, FL, where my family raised all kinds of animals. Naturally, some of my closest companions were our dogs and cats! Between growing up with approximately 30 family cats, raising litters of kittens, and showering our senior cats with affection during their golden years, I've had a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals at every stage of life. I've also lived with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls! My experience includes caring for litters of puppies, energetic adult dogs, and senior dogs who needed a little extra help navigating furniture, doorways, and everyday activities. I've yet to meet a dog that I couldn't win over with enough treats, walks, and belly rubs! One thing I take particular pride in is my ability to read animal body language and recognize when a pet needs attention, reassurance, or simply a little space. I believe every animal has its own personality, boundaries, and comfort level, so I always approach new friendships with patience and let the animal set the pace. While I absolutely love spoiling animals with affection, I also understand the importance of consistency, structure, and respecting the rules and routines you've established in your home. I'm confident handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I believe in providing a balance of affection, positive reinforcement, and dependable care. I'm comfortable caring for animals with a variety of needs, including administering oral medications such as pills and medications mixed into wet food. I've also had exposure to injectable medications and have observed them being administered, although I do not have hands-on experience giving injections. I understand the importance of following owner instructions, maintaining consistent care routines, and making sure every animal receives the attention and care they need. Above all, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they're in good hands! I currently am attending college 4 mornings a week at St. Petersburg College. I also work in the Grand Central District 5 days a week. When housesitting, I will make sure to spend my free time at the house and go to my own house once or twice a day to take care of my own cats. When walking a dog or just stopping in, I will do so on my way to and/or from class and work, depending on the schedule of the owner/animal. I prefer a written schedule that I can refer back to so that I know what the animals are asking for at what times. I try to take a dog out every 4-6 hours, whether it’s just in the yard or on a walk. When I work, I make sure the dog is taken out/walked right before I leave and as soon as I get back after work. If the owner has poop bags or a shovel, I am happy to clean the backyard before the owners return home.
“Colleen spent amazing quality time with my Kitty. I can tell just looking at the photos that my cat enjoyed her company and found her as a safe person to be around! Thank you Colleen!”
About: I've grown up around animals my entire life and was raised on a farm, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I've been around all kinds of animals and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I'm currently working a full-time job but have availability after/before work. I do not work weekends! My typical work schedule is 9-5 Monday-Friday. I care for all pets by constantly giving them attention and love! I am a big walker/ runner, so I will definitely get your pets' steps in if needed!!
“Outstanding pet sitter! She will love and care for your pets like her own. Reliable, communicative, and great with all kinds of animals. I had no worries while I was out of town, as she sent me daily updates on my tortoise. I highly recommend and will absolutely rebook with her. Your pet will be in great hands!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs my entire life and absolutely love being around animals! I’ve trained multiple dogs over the years, and I’ve even attempted to train a few cats—but that’s still a work in progress. 😸 I enjoy taking the pups for walks and runs, playing fetch at the dog park and giving them all the love and attention. You can find me playing “Where did the red dot go?” with my feline friends and also giving them all the love and attention. I have experience with drop-in visits and in-home pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routes. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time taking care of animals. I enjoy being active and already go on plenty of walks and runs. Adding a dog would just making my walks a lot better! I follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeing, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I’m respectful of your home, and make sure everything in clean and locked up before I leave. I also update you with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and taken care of. 🐶😺
“Emma is amazing! I have 3 dogs that can be a handful alone but are even more so when they work as a team. She saved our holiday trip by being able to take the dogs on short notice and absolutely crushed it after our normal sitter had to cancel. I don’t advertise often but in this case Emma is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
“Sam did a wonderful job watching my two cats. She even got my shy boy to come out from hiding. It made me so happy to know he was being taken care of too. Will definitely use her again. Thanks!”
“Thankful to have found Joli to watch Bear whenever we’re in the St. Pete area! She’s always responsive and sends updates and photos while we’re out. I fully trust her with our high maintenance little wiener dog!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tierra Verde
This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't be happier. Alyssa was super prompt during the booking and greeting process and as soon as we met her we knew we made the right choice. Our cat McKenzie was very well cared for, and with each passing day and photo updates, we could see him change and become more and more comfortable. Final day, flat on back, paws up, just totally relaxed. Thank you, Alyssa for a wonderful experience for all of us.
We are so happy we were able to book Kylee last minute for our 4 months old kitten! She showed up promptly at each scheduled drop-in and took care of everything Pixel needed while we were away. Litterbox cleaning, feeding, so much play time and cuddle sessions plus plenty of treats to keep Pixel quite happy! We also got a ton of photo updates with each visit which helped ease some of my worry about leaving our kitten home for the first time but she made sure to communicate consistently and we had nothing to worry about. We will definitely book Kylee again int the future!
Lexi is a lifesaver! We needed someone asap and she went above and beyond to help. She instantly became our go-to caregiver for our dog and we feel blessed to have found her. From the start, our dog was so excited to meet her as if he's known her forever. Our dog is very friendly, but every once in a while he meets someone and it's as though he/she is a long lost friend. Lexi is one of these people. A new friend to our Oakley and our family for sure!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Tierra Verde is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,332 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tierra Verde. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tierra Verde. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters 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 sitter.
