We really appreciate her making them feel so comfortable and safe while we were away. Definitely recommend booking with Micaela! :)”

About: Hi, I’m Kim! I’m a 30-year-old lawyer who works from home and has a deep passion for caring for animals. I have two wonderful dogs of my own and have fostered several dogs over the years, giving me plenty of experience with different breeds and temperaments. With over 15 years of pet care experience, I offer overnight sitting, daily walks, and plenty of love and attention for your pets while you’re away. I’ve also cared for cats, including newborn kittens that needed nursing, so I’m comfortable providing specialized care for pets of all ages. Whether it’s daily walks or extended overnight stays, your pets will feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I work from home on MWF so I am very flexible with dog walking availability! As far as overnight stays in my home, I do not have any day limitations. If dogs are crate trained, I will leave them in the crate if I am leaving the house just to make sure they feel safe. I have a closed in backyard. For new dogs, I will keep them on the leash the first time they are down there just to gauge their temperament.
“Michelle was a Godsend! We were nervous about leaving our affectionate-but-needy cat with a stranger. No worries! In no time at all, they bonded and became friends. The photos sent during our 3-week trip were proof of that, and a lifeline for us. The result, when we returned: a well-adjusted cat, everything in the house perfect , and a big relief for us. We will definitely call on her again!”

“Brianna was wonderful for my dog Cody. He was peaceful and happy with her. She provided a safe environment. Cody is a nervous little guy and it is important to me that he is cared for by someone who is patient and understanding. I will definitely book with Brianna when I need a dog sitter again.”
“This was my dog Maeve's first time doing doggie daycare with Julie, Brian, and their dog Horatio, and she had a great time! They kept me updated during and gave me a full report afterward. I'll definitely be making this a regular thing!”
About: Home away from home level love. Expect expert level care, with lots of love, play and snuggles! I only take a few dogs at a time, so that it doesn't get too crowded and everyone gets plenty of attention. We take puppies, seniors, cats, dogs, guinea pigs...you name it! I work from home, so I am rarely away from the pups on weekdays. Drop off times are pretty flexible. Pick up time ends at 8pm. I love when I have conference calls at home and the dogs make a cameo appearance. It makes everyone's day! I have a nice fenced in yard with shady spots throughout. There is a pool that the dogs can swim in if they want. I also have security cameras inside so I can check in when we are not home. Dogs love our doggie door for the freedom to come and go.
“Taytumn took the best care of my girls and on such short notice! It was everything I could want for daycare for my dogs- pictures and updates, a beautiful backyard and a friendly and communicative caregiver. Amelia & Penelope will definitely be back.”
“Met Evette and her adorable lab named Lady for a meet & greet and 5-hour daycare session. We plan to hire Evette for some upcoming 60 min dog walks next week and wanted to bring our lab Gunnar over to her house to connect them and make sure he felt comfortable with her. Evette & Lady were welcoming and loving!! 🥰”
“Teri did a wonderful job looking after Jellybean and sending me updates throughout the day. She was well prepared and asked all the right questions. I had no doubt he would be in good hands, I highly recommend her services!”

Each dog will be personally cared for as if it was my own. The environment in my home is calm, peaceful, a private fenced-in yard, smoke, drug, and alchohol free. ***Please note, I do not take Pit Bulls, Pit Bull mixed breeds, this includes Bully's and American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers.*** I am a stay-at-home guy with plenty of time to give your companion plenty of personal attention.

“My puppy just spent three days of daycare with Nikki and had a great time. He can be a bit nervous at first, but he warmed up quickly and looked super happy in the pictures I received. I really appreciate Nikki’s patience with helping to acclimate him to what he initially thought was a scary situation. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you Nikki!”
“Beverly was awesome with my girl Pippa! She was even willing to meet up with us previous to the booking to ensure that another dog in her care and my dog got along well. Thank you!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over 13 years now. I have had both dogs and cats in my home since I was born. I have experience with all types of pet care from boarding, house-sitting, puppy/kitten care, and typical drop-in visits. I am currently applying to PhD programs and working remotely so I am home most days! I live alone in St. Pete and do not have any pets of my own so I am happy to keep yours in my home as needed. I do live in a studio so it isn't the biggest place if that's what your pet needs; however, I do have a fenced in yard for outdoor play. I am very well-versed in dog-sitting, cat-sitting, and house-sitting. I love when my clients leave me a note or list of things they prefer for their fur baby. I always do a home visit with the client present before I'm alone with their pet to ensure everyone is comfortable with one another.
“Brittany and Stephen are very caring and did great with our 2 older pups. We appreciate them and they have made our pets feel safe and comfortable. We would recommend them to anyone for dog sitting or daycare.”
“John was awesome! We needed a last minute sitter for work obligations and he was such a big help. Our dog loved seeing him every day. We are so grateful and plan to hire John again when we need him! Thanks again!”
About: Hello! Our names are Alanna and Mark and we are both huge animal lovers. We have experience in caring for both large and small dogs, growing up with both. We currently have two senior dogs, one who is blind and deaf and a bunny! We are very used to administering medications and dealing with special needs dogs. Mark is Pet CPR certified. We will will happily take your pup for a walk, to the park, and provide tons of love and snuggles while you’re away! We will be happy to send you updates and keep you informed on how they are doing while you are away. We typically divide and conquer with one of us staying home with our pets while the other gives 100% attention to yours! We look forward to meeting you and taking care of your furry best friend. I work from home so your pup will almost never be alone! I go to the gym for about 2 hours in the evening but other than that I am home with them. I have a dog of my own as well as having grown up with dogs. I am an active foster for the Tampa Bay humane society as well as several other organizations. I am experience with puppies through senior dogs as well as giving medication and special accommodations. My back yard was designed with dogs in mind. We have a huge fully fenced turf outdoor area as well as a separate fenced dog park with a fire hydrant to allow us the ability to separate the dogs during outdoor time if needed.
“Marc & Erandi provides an absolutely amazing experience! They accepted my booking super last minute and were incredibly kind, communicative, and caring the entire time. They sent pictures which made me feel so reassured while I was away. My dog was very happy and well taken care of. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, quick to communicate, and thoughtful sitters!”
“Gabby was really great with Finn. Huge property that allowed him and other pups to play and just be dogs. Glad I was able to find Gabby so close to my house. Next time Finn needs doggie daycare or if I go out of town, I will definitely use Gabby again.”

About: Raised in Minnesota barn life, I learned hands‑on care for birds, small mammals, and horses. Now serving St. Pete, I offer reliable dog walks, gentle leash training, enrichment, medication administration, and attentive puppy, senior, and/or specialized care. My partner and I share life with two dogs, Betty and Zuko, and a cat, Grapes, and you’ll often spot our little fam swimming at Fort DeSoto or strolling through Sawgrass Lake Park. I offer early, late, or multiple daily visits and can do overnight stays with advance notice. My schedule is flexible most days and weekends; I am unavailable on Wednesdays. I primarily provide care in your home so pets stay in familiar surroundings. I follow provided routines, secure doors/enclosures, perform a quick safety check each visit, and administer oral meds exactly as directed. I send regular photo updates and will contact you should any concerns arise.
“Karen has been dog walking for my handsome ol' man Chewbacca for a while now. It is easy to tell he is happier on the days she comes over. She is also thoughtful to get helpful feedback on how he is doing for the day, which is important as he is older and has had some illnesses. Karen also spends the time to give attention to my cats as well, including photos. I'm lucky to have her to take care of my Chewesph!”
“Micaela was so wonderful with my pup. She walked her in the afternoon in June. She updated me and sent me photos while I was on a trip. Sage was so happy. Thank you for taking great care of my fur baby.”
About: I know how important (and relieving) it is to find a sitter on Rover you can truly trust. With two pets of my own at home, I understand how much dogs become part of the family and how important it is to know they are in caring, responsible hands. I have also cared for older foster dogs during hurricanes, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing comfort during stressful situations. As a law student away from home, I do not currently have the time to care for a dog full time, so I see Rover as an opportunity to share some of the love and care I have for animals with your pets. I am reliable, responsible, and committed to making your dogs feel safe, cared for, and loved while you are away. Currently, I have a very flexible schedule. I can walk dogs multiple times a day and also pet sit for a few hours or check in as many times as needed! In your home, I would care for your dog by not only learning where all of their important items are, but also understanding their individual preferences, whether that’s where they like to rest, their favorite toy, or behaviors they may show when they are missing you. I know how important consistency and comfort are for pets while their owners are away. You can also count on me to respect your home, follow your routines closely, and remain communicative throughout my time with your pet so you always feel informed and reassured.
