“Heather is the best. She takes such loving care of my little dog and has helped with his interaction with other dogs including small outings. I just appreciate her so much.”
“She took excellent care of our standard poodle and our kitty while we were away. Great communication and she also administered medication to our cat. Not an easy feat. Would definitely recommend her and have her sit for us again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, lizards, fish and turtles. I love taking dogs on walks and to the dog park if that’s something your pet would enjoy. My schedule is flexible and I can make taking care of your pet in your home close to his or her regular schedule work for all of us. I can meet with you at your home to meet your pet(s) and discuss the care instructions at your convenience. I will ensure that you feel comfortable in choosing me.
“"Rocco had a great stay! He was well taken care of and we could tell he was comfortable and happy. Communication was easy and everything went smoothly. Would book again. Thanks so much!"”
“Our cavapoo, Lexi, always has a great time with Bob and Marissa. They take wonderful care of her and give her attention and love. This is our second time leaving Lexi with them and we feel very comfortable. Last time we went out of the country for over two weeks and Lexi pretty much had her own vacation with Bob and Marissa too. We get several updates and pictures every day, which is fun to see.”
“My puppy was well cared for and in loving hands. I received frequent updates throughout his stay and the personalized letter and polaroid picture was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. I highly recommend their services!”
“I felt very secure with Linda taking care of my dog over the weekend. My dog immediately took to her and was happy and affectionate towards her when he returned also. I know he got a lot of snuggle time which he needed.”
“This was our first time using the Rover app. My husband and we were nervous leaving our boys (two boxers). Jennifer b. Was amazing, our boys took to her immediately. She gave our dogs so much love and took them on walks and sent videos and pictures to put our minds at ease. I would highly recommend Jennifer b. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“We are so grateful for JD and Magdalena! We were provided great photos throughout our dog’s stay, and he returned one happy pup! Would highly recommend! Thank you for everything!!”
“Christina J. has given us peace of mind when we leave our sweet 10-yr-old cockapoo with her. In recent years he has developed separation anxiety. Knowing he is safe and happy with Christina J. means the world to us. She is sweet, patient, loving and we could tell right away that she loves all dogs.”
“What an wonderful experience my Pyper had. It was like she was on vacation. She felt right at home, loved all the attention, activity & love. The photo/ video updates were invaluable to me. I was referred by a friend who has used their services & am so happy we now have the opportunity & pleasure to use them as well.”
About: Lifelong experience with dogs. Growing up I have owned both lab and pitbull type dogs, but that is just my personal ownership. I have cared for puppies and older dogs, and have cared for all my dogs into their senior 14 plus years. Friends and family have used me as their most regular dog sitter for their loved ones. I've ranged in babysitting dogs from a larger size like boxer, lab, pitbull, goldendoodles, to as small as bichon frise, pugs and French bulldogs. I work from home the majority of my days so when I am sitting dogs are always supervised by me and have my full attention. I live near a nature reserve so I enjoy taking pets on long (or short) walks around the neighborhood and we also have a community dog park if you enjoy letting your pets play there. I really just enjoy dogs of all ages and sizes and am honored to be so trusted watching people's loved pets. I currently work from home so I am available to supervise pets full time in my apartment. I typically work from 8-4, but can take frequent breaks for feedings, potty breaks, play time and anything else your pet may need. I do go to the gym in the afternoons, but I am away from home for a max of an hour and the gym is right in front of my community within walking distance if needed to get back home quickly. I am available for weekday and weekend boarding as my schedule does not change often, so your pet will have my full attention while they are at my home. I am surrounded by nature and am also close to several trails if your pet likes longer walks. I live in a pet friendly community and also have access to a community dog park that we can easily visit if you like. Pets are allowed on my furniture and I am a big fan of all snuggles. In my home I have space for 1-2 dogs. I have an open area to place a crate for your dog as well a bed or any other accessories your pet will need. I'm home full time so whatever feeding/walking schedule you have your pets on I will be able to accommodate for them.
“Our two Frenchies love going to Norma's for daycare so naturally when we needed to board them we chose Norma! Norma gives the dogs so much love and she sends photos throughout their stay! One of our Frenchies was on medication and Norma gave her the meds daily as instructed! I know they can't wait to go back to Norma's again! I highly recommend Norma if you want your pups loved and well taken care of!”
“Tuany was wonderful with our dog! She sent lots of updates and pictures and took great care of our puppy. Highly recommend booking with her! Will definitely have her watch my dog again.”
“Angie is AMAZING! My family and I couldn't be more satisfied with the way she cared for our pet. You can tell how much she really loves animals from the moment you meet her and you will feel confident in booking a stay with her. She cares for you pet like she does her own(: so happy I have found someone I trust, that is so loving and passionate!!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Noemi. Her home is immaculate and she gave our dog lots of opportunities for exercise at the dog park, walking and in her fenced area. Will definitely use her again.”
“Alli was great. The frequent pictures and updates kept me updated and it was clear Bella was having a wonderful time. The frequent walks and outside time were a bonus for me very active fur baby!! Definitely would recommend and I have no hesitation bringing Bella back!!!”

“Jennifer O was the best! It was great to be able to visit my daughter knowing my Willow was being well cared for! She even came over before I left so she would be a familiar face! The daily updates and pics really helped me feel not so far away. I immediately took to Jennifer’s friendly, trustworthy, & knowledgeable air and her gentle, caring nature. I can’t rave about her enough! Your pet will be in good hands with Jennifer O!”
“Aditi responded quickly, was communicative, and receptive to all my needs and requests. I needed help taking care of my kitties and bunny during a busy workweek and Aditi was a lifesaver! Thank you! :)”
“Jennifer watched our cat Ozzy while we were out of town the week of Christmas and she was fantastic! Oz is very used to having us home all the time so leaving for 5 days was hard for us and him but Jennifer’s daily updates with pictures, to let us know his mood and that he was doing well was so reassuring. Would definitely recommend Jennifer as a sitter!”
“Aleksandra was an amazing sitter for our two cats. She provided detailed descriptions for each visit plus plenty of awesome pictures!! Our cats were in great hands with her!”
“Howard is usually a very shy and quiet momma’s boy but completely trusted and thrived with Lisa and her daily visits. Her communication was impressive and meticulous (litter, food, water, play). Impressive. I came home to a spoiled cat and he loved it!”
“Jessica was a consummate professional and easy to work with. She goes above and beyond to do more than what’s expected, and we’ll be hiring her to watch our cats again in the future.”
“We had a great experience with Alexis! She took wonderful care of our cat and followed all of our instructions perfectly. We really appreciated the updates and photos, they gave us peace of mind while traveling. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to others!”
“It broke my heart to leave my cat Louis home while I was away for work for 11 nights but David did a phenomenal job house-sitting, taking care of her. He was responsive, sent regular updates, he even managed to steal her heart. I highly recommend David and would definitely book him again if I ever have to leave my girl alone for an extended period”

“Courtney was amazing! So flexible and helpful. She even took care of the fish. She goes above and beyond to communicate with you on your pets. I couldn’t be happier. I will be definitely rebooking with her for all my needs.”
About: I have two beautiful rescue cats that I've raised since they were kittens, and they mean the world to me. When I first adopted my sweet girl, she had a respiratory infection and needed medication for the first several weeks. With lots of love, patience, and care, she made a full recovery and is now a happy, healthy cat. My handsome black cat, Maverick, also needed extra care when he developed a UTI. I carefully administered his medication and monitored his recovery until he was back to his healthy, playful self. Experiences like these have taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and understanding each pet's individual needs. Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I genuinely love caring for them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. If I had the space, I would rescue every stray and homeless animal I came across. While your pet is in my care, I'll treat them with the same kindness, attention, and affection that I give my own pets every day.
“So sweet and responsive. Has done great with the dogs and is very kind and patient towards them. She was very understanding of my dog’s reactivity and we worked together to find a solution where everyone was comfortable. This has been a such a relief knowing I have someone set up to watch the pups even for just a little bit during the day.”
About: I have years of experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities, from playful kittens to shy or senior cats. I understand feline behavior and make sure your kitty feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Feeding, litter changes, playtime, and plenty of affection are always part of the routine.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, and had two dogs in Australia (Black Lab and a miniature Cavoodle) before relocating to the US in August last year. My wife and daughter are spending summer back in Aus, so could use a bit of company over the summer, and would love to get my dog fix. My wife and daughter are spending summer back in Australia, so will have a lot of free time on my hands. I work from home full time, in a 2 bedroom apartment. There might be the odd evening/trip to the shops etc where I will be out of the complex, but it will be minimal. I do travel for work, but will know weeks in advance of any travel scheduled. I have a 2 bedroom apartments on the second floor of a complex. There is an off lead dog park in the complex and have direct access to Tampa Bay. I stand up paddle board and happy to take any adventurous pups out on the bay with me.
“I highly recommend Debora. She watched my puppy for a couple hours and upon my return my puppy was learning to “leave it” and to calm down when other dogs are near (she gets super excited). Debora was very nice, super knowledgeable and my puppy loved her the second they met. 10/10”
“Enzo had a great day with Jennifer today. We will definitely continue with daycare when we need it! Thanks for taking good care of our sweet boy.”
“We had a great experience! Olga kept us updated with photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention, care, and love. He came home happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Willow loved staying with Beata and her family and meeting new friends and spending a lot of time outside running in her large backyard! Beata was very responsive and sent lots of pictures!”
“I’m so thrilled to have found a safe and happy place for June! She gets so excited when she realizes where the car is going!!! And so happy to see Alli and Mac! I don’t have to worry how the day is going because Alli sends photos and up dates!!!”
“Suzie was amazing!! She quickly responded to any questions I had and met us downstairs at her place to watch our dog, Lilly. She sent me pictures and video of our pup playing with her dog Wally who is just a sweetheart! Our meetings ran a little late but Suzie was very accommodating with our schedule and I Thank her so much for that! She's absolutely wonderful!! I will definitely use Suzie again!!”
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I've owned three dogs, two of these dogs I had throughout my childhood and one is the dog I own currently and currently own two rescue cats, and I've also cared for family members' and friends' pets while they were away. My experience includes caring for dogs ranging from 30-pound companions to large breeds such as Golden Retrievers and Dobermans. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for pets with medical needs. When I adopted my rescue cats as kittens, both required medication and extra attention during their recovery. One had a respiratory infection, and the other was treated for a UTI. These experiences taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of closely monitoring an animal's health and behavior. Animals truly hold a special place in my heart. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, compassion, and respect that I give my own. Whether it's playtime, walks, cuddles, medication, or simply keeping them company, my goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. One of my lifelong dreams is to open a nonprofit animal sanctuary and continue helping animals in need. At the moment, I have a flexible and open schedule. This means I can fully dedicate my time, attention, and energy to caring for your pets and accommodating their needs. I will take the time to understand each pet’s individual routine and needs by asking pet parents how they typically care for their pet. I believe every pet is different, so I make sure to learn any specific instructions, preferences, or important details before providing care. I never assume I know what’s best for someone else’s pet and always follow the owner’s guidance closely. My goal is to provide consistent, personalized care so each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. In my own home I will still ensure I follow the owners guidance of their pet and ensure they are happy and comfortable in my home with my dog and cats!

About: When caring for other people's animals, safety is my primary concern, followed closely by happiness and wellbeing. You can expect to receive daily updates, pictures and videos. You can also expect prompt responses from the moment I receive a request, during the booking, and even follow up messaging after the booking has ended. I make individual care plans depending on age, size and breed of the dog. Meaning that if your pup/s have high energy, more play time is necessary and allotted. If your pup/s are a laid back senior, then we spend more time relaxing. I work from home and have a fenced in yard and love walks in our beautiful Safety Harbor town. My family has had all types and sizes of pups from toy poodles to great danes! It's important to give the same level of love, attention, and care to every animal as though it were my own. However, each dog has it's own individual needs, I am able to cater to whatever each dog's needs will be.
“Amanda has been wonderful for our English Mastiff, Memphis. She takes great care of him, sends update photos, and is very flexible with her schedule. Highly recommend her! :)”
“Lisa was excellent and took such great care of our pups Daisy and Lily. I will definitely be booking with her for future trips and I would recommend her for her professionalism and thoughtfulness. Thank you again!”

“We contacted David to help with our dog, Bella Mae, for a couple days last week as I had minor surgery and could not walk her. David was nice enough to stop by prior to scheduled time and meet us and Bella. He is a fine young man who clearly loves animals and was great with Bella Mae.”
About: I love all things dogs and after losing my dog I would love to help others out. My favorite things were going for walks, checking out new parks, the beach and just lounging around having a lazy day. I’m good with all breeds and have experience and patience for all. I work part time with lots of flexibility. I am able to switch shifts and block off dates in short notice. I can help whenever needed. I pet sit in my own home. I have a large backyard with lots of space. Tall fences and secure locks. The house is large too and dogs are allowed on furniture.
“Peyton has been absolutely amazing! She stepped in for a few last-minute bookings when I was dealing with car issues, and I can’t thank her enough. She’s incredibly reliable, follows directions perfectly, and most importantly—she’s great with my pets. Her communication is clear, timely, and reassuring. It’s such a relief knowing I can count on someone who truly cares. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and dependable dog walker! Scout and Chuck 🐕🦺🐕🐾🐾💙☺️🌞”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I can remember. I specialize in "bird dogs", retrievers, pointers, setters, and spaniels. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their furry friends. My schedule is flexible between the hours of 6am-3pm, Monday through Friday. I will accommodate special requests/events as needed. I will work with you to make sure your pet's needs are met. I provide a safe, loving, and caring environment for your dog. I offer the drop in service to give your dog a walk, potty break, and companionship.
About: I have raised dogs all my life. I also have years of experience with cats, reptiles, and rabbits. I have potty trained many dogs and I’ve even taught my furry friends a few party tricks. Come and see! I work full-time as a school teacher. I am home on Saturdays and Sundays (aside from church) every week. Weekends are the best times to book boarding appointments with me. I am also available during major holidays. I have a fenced-in backyard. I have two small dogs (under 15 pounds) and cats. I can separate my cats from your pet during the day if needed (as I have a furnished garage that they chill in). I also have a work sink where I can give animals under 20 lbs. baths. I live in a suburban environment in Dunedin, FL and I have extra medium-sized crates.
About: I have had a lot of experience caring for dogs throughout my life with all sizes and breeds. My wife and I work full time from home and able to give a lot of love. She is the "run & play" and I am the "snuggle and cuddle." We have a small rescue puppy who loves to play hard and sleep hard. We do lots of walks and she gets along great with other dogs. We will always do a meet-and-greet before we confirm to watch your pup to make sure it is a good fit. My wife and I are both working full time at home with a lot of flexibility. We try to keep a quiet, easy going home during work hours and playtime or walk every two hours. We are happy to have pups in the bed, furniture, etc. We do request a meet and greet but mostly so we get to know your pup!
About: Have two dogs and know what it is like to go on vacation or even away for a day or two and wonder if our fur babies are in good hands. They are our kids/family. We all want to make sure that our kids are loved and having lots of fun when we are away. You're fur babies will be having a great time and receiving lots of attention. The dogs have their own couch, a huge fenced in back yard to run around in, and if there are not too many fur babies visiting, they will be allowed to sleep in the bed. Work from home full time. The dogs are let outside every 2 hours or as needed. Hours of pick up and drop off are 7 days a week 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. (may be flexible with prearranged dropoff). I have two dogs. They both love interaction with other dogs and have a blast running around the fenced-in back yard. They get along with dogs of any size.
“Regina is a very experienced dog walker/pet sitter. Her professionalism is apparent from her first visit. She is not someone who walks dogs to make a few bucks...this is a business she takes very seriously. My dog very much enjoys her daily visits and is very excited when Regina arrives. She makes us aware of any concerns she may have with my dogs heath or if there is any concerns at my house during the visit, which gives me peace of mind. I recommend Regina to anyone looking for a professional and reliable caregiver for their pet.”
About: I have taken care of all the animals, fish, dogs big and small and the kitties! I love all the animals! Can’t wait to meet them! I work a very flexible job! Would be able to go check on your babies throughout the day and stay over night whenever needed! :) I am a homebody so I am good to stay and hang out with your animal as needed! I can also do drop ins and come back and let them out late and back early in the am! We can take long walks or just let them have a sniff-ari 😉. I treat them like they are my own! I can also board your sweet babies with me at my boyfriend’s apartment! He’s doesn't have any animals so it’s a great place for animals if they need to be alone!

“She took excellent care of our standard poodle and our kitty while we were away. Great communication and she also administered medication to our cat. Not an easy feat. Would definitely recommend her and have her sit for us again.”
“"Rocco had a great stay! He was well taken care of and we could tell he was comfortable and happy. Communication was easy and everything went smoothly. Would book again. Thanks so much!"”
“This was our first time using the Rover app. My husband and we were nervous leaving our boys (two boxers). Jennifer b. Was amazing, our boys took to her immediately. She gave our dogs so much love and took them on walks and sent videos and pictures to put our minds at ease. I would highly recommend Jennifer b. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“We are so grateful for JD and Magdalena! We were provided great photos throughout our dog’s stay, and he returned one happy pup! Would highly recommend! Thank you for everything!!”
“What an wonderful experience my Pyper had. It was like she was on vacation. She felt right at home, loved all the attention, activity & love. The photo/ video updates were invaluable to me. I was referred by a friend who has used their services & am so happy we now have the opportunity & pleasure to use them as well.”
About: Lifelong experience with dogs. Growing up I have owned both lab and pitbull type dogs, but that is just my personal ownership. I have cared for puppies and older dogs, and have cared for all my dogs into their senior 14 plus years. Friends and family have used me as their most regular dog sitter for their loved ones. I've ranged in babysitting dogs from a larger size like boxer, lab, pitbull, goldendoodles, to as small as bichon frise, pugs and French bulldogs. I work from home the majority of my days so when I am sitting dogs are always supervised by me and have my full attention. I live near a nature reserve so I enjoy taking pets on long (or short) walks around the neighborhood and we also have a community dog park if you enjoy letting your pets play there. I really just enjoy dogs of all ages and sizes and am honored to be so trusted watching people's loved pets. I currently work from home so I am available to supervise pets full time in my apartment. I typically work from 8-4, but can take frequent breaks for feedings, potty breaks, play time and anything else your pet may need. I do go to the gym in the afternoons, but I am away from home for a max of an hour and the gym is right in front of my community within walking distance if needed to get back home quickly. I am available for weekday and weekend boarding as my schedule does not change often, so your pet will have my full attention while they are at my home. I am surrounded by nature and am also close to several trails if your pet likes longer walks. I live in a pet friendly community and also have access to a community dog park that we can easily visit if you like. Pets are allowed on my furniture and I am a big fan of all snuggles. In my home I have space for 1-2 dogs. I have an open area to place a crate for your dog as well a bed or any other accessories your pet will need. I'm home full time so whatever feeding/walking schedule you have your pets on I will be able to accommodate for them.
“Angie is AMAZING! My family and I couldn't be more satisfied with the way she cared for our pet. You can tell how much she really loves animals from the moment you meet her and you will feel confident in booking a stay with her. She cares for you pet like she does her own(: so happy I have found someone I trust, that is so loving and passionate!!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Noemi. Her home is immaculate and she gave our dog lots of opportunities for exercise at the dog park, walking and in her fenced area. Will definitely use her again.”
“Alli was great. The frequent pictures and updates kept me updated and it was clear Bella was having a wonderful time. The frequent walks and outside time were a bonus for me very active fur baby!! Definitely would recommend and I have no hesitation bringing Bella back!!!”
“Laura was amazing with my Edna, who is not a very confident dog. Laura has a warm and gentle nature and made friends with Edna in minutes. Her activity notes and photos showed Edna very comfortable and enjoying attention from other family members as well. Laura is communicative and attentive to detail. But I think Edna only cared about all the affection. I hope we will be able to board with Laura again!”
“Stephen was a great caretaker for our dog! He was communicative and flexible and updated us with lots of photos of how she was doing. Bodhi was really sweet and friendly and welcomed her with ease too!”
“100% will be using Kevin again. It’s super nice going out of town knowing your fur baby is well taken care of. Kevin is a super nice dude and took great care of my little boy. The yard is a huge plus, since I don’t have a backyard at home - my dog is high energy and it’s super good that he had a spot to run around and chase his tail.”
“I would highly recommend Martha & Brett for taking care of your fur babies. They were very attentive to our dog's needs and we're very accommodating. We will definitely use their services again.”
“Jason and his wife were exceptional with my puppy. I had constant updates and pictures. She was always with someone, having, fun, or sleeping. I know she was spoiled! They were also amazing at following her schedule and continuing her command training. I felt really good leaving my puppy with them for a week!”
“David was amazing! Thunder and I were so happy and felt very safe and comfortable having nrhiser staying with him! Will definitely be back. Thank you so much! Sent pictures all the time and he gave Thunder love as I do 😊”
“Jennifer and her daughter were great! They took great care of our boys and made them feel right at home. Jennifer sent us lots of cute pictures of our boys during their stay. They were sure to get lots of play time in with our dogs too! We will definitely be sure to use Jennifer again in the future.”
“Lee was great! He helped us out on short notice and was super flexible and accommodating. He took great care of our doggie while we were away! We recently moved to a new area and Lee is our new go-to dog sitter! Highly recommend”
“We are so happy with how things have been going working with Lisa and I cannot recommend her services enough! The communication has been fabulous and her love for dogs is truly evident. We are already booked again for boarding and I feel so comforted knowing our boys are in such loving, capable hands! 🫶🏾”
