“Hermun is always so sweet and kind with our dog and he loves going to her house. She is so professional, responsive, and so knowledgeable about dogs. The first time he stayed at her house he got sick and she handled it so well and with such compassion. We were so worried taking him somewhere he was unfamiliar initially, but she made him feel so at home and her dog Max has such a calm energy that helped him as well. We feel lucky to have found her.”
“Kiran is the best sitter! Our Lily is always well taken care of and she always comes back happy😊 Kiran is responsive and communicative throughout the stay. Definitely recommend!”
“Nicole was excellent with Reggie!! Kept in touch each day and sent pictures too! She's always very quick to respond to messages. Reggie came home a very happy little guy!”
“Tucker had an amazing time while staying with Margarita and Carissa. We are pretty sure that he had as good vacation as we did. Their son was Tucker‘s best playmate. We would highly recommend Margarita and Clarissa for anyone in the area needing a safe and loving home for their pet. Thank you again for the love and care.❤️. Bonus, they have an amazing backyard!”
“Eileen was so patient and kind. My little guy had just experienced a stressful trip and found himself in Eileen’s care because Mom was going away again but this time without him. He was not his typical self and he was anxious. Eileen handled him so well and I am grateful for her excellent care.”
“Evgenia and her family were incredible! They cared for my special-needs dog with so much love, patience, and attention. Evgenia kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, giving me complete peace of mind. My dog clearly felt safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. I’m so grateful for her compassion and professionalism. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your fur baby like their own! 🐶”

“Joshua B. was absolutely amazing with Lobo! From the moment we connected, his communication was clear, timely, and reassuring. He treated Lobo like his own, and it was obvious our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for during the stay. We loved receiving updates and knowing Lobo was in such good hands. Joshua is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the pets he watches. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“Quavo had the best time! Elena was super polite and kept us in the loop with frequent updates and photos, which we really appreciated. You could tell Quavo felt right at home with them and had the best time with Coco. The cute bandana at pickup was a very sweet touch. We’d happily book again and recommend her to anyone nearby! 🐾”

“Matt is very understanding, communicative and flexible. He sent me photos even though it was a one night stay! He was perfectly fine with my dog's crate and accessories. He makes sure all the dogs get along. My boxer, Felice came back a happy boy after playing with some new friends. Felice was well cared for and I recommend Matt.”
“Catherine was so sweet! She was very prompt in responding to my questions and flexible when my return flight was delayed. My dog had a wonderful time with her and will be visiting again soon!”
“My pup loved her time with Virginia. My dog is very anxious and has separation anxiety to the max, but was calm and relaxed the whole time she was with Virginia. She sent daily photos letting me know my pup was well cared for and loved. Can't recommend Virginia enough.”
“We had a wonderful experience! They’re incredibly kind, caring, and flexible — which made the whole process so easy and stress-free. We felt completely at ease leaving Jax, in their care. He was so happy to be with them, and we could tell he felt right at home! We also really appreciated the updates and knowing he was getting lots of love and attention. It means so much to have neighbors we can trust with our dog. We’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
About: I began dog walking for my neighbors at 8 years old and helped take care of my family’s french bulldog throughout elementary, middle, and high school. Given her high care needs, I have experience in caring for senior dogs and am able to give them medication. I have pets-sat for families with dogs, cats, and bunnies. Growing up I also had a hamster and guinea pigs of my own! I love doing the “Doggy Day Out” at my local shelter where I get to care for a shelter dog for the day and would love to give your furry friend that same experience. I’m currently working a part-time job and am a full time college student. During the school year, I have classes Mon-Thurs in the morning and for the summer I am completely available to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard and would love to care for your pup! I will take them for a walk and play with them, treating them as if they are my own dogs.
“We first did a meet and greet with Rachel and her dog, Zeplin. The dogs were just fine together. I would definitley board again with Rachel. She was communicative and sent pictures of my dog doing just fine every day. She even worked with me on my pick up schedule since my flight was late getting back into town. Very nice!!”
“We were so happy to find Melinda and David! They watched our two dogs while we were gone for the weekend and took amazing care of them! They truly love animals, and we loved knowing that our pups were safe and happy while we were gone. They went above and beyond to make our dogs comfortable in their home, and they were great at communicating and providing daily updates. Our pups loved the daily walks and lots of play, and they were clearly happy and comfy and having a great time! It’s always so hard to leave them behind, but it’s easier knowing they’re getting the attention and care they need and deserve. Melinda & David were so nice and friendly, and they truly cared about our dogs. We will definitely be asking Melinda & David the next time we need someone to watch our pups!”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Katherine and her family provided to our 10 year old goldendoodle! We loved the daily updates and photos and could rest easy knowing he was in good hands.”
“Still the best dog care service on Rover, from the special care she gives to the doggies to the communication. She gave my cami a bath so she was nice and clean during her 9 days stay. She left toys for my princess when it was time to pick her up. And she treated cami as her own family. She is the ONLY stay that cami allergies didn’t act up. Cami had solid poops when returning home. Compared to others she monitors the dogs so they don’t eat scraps. She also gave cami such pretty photo shoots that I have some of the best pics. This is my second time using her, so glad I found Cece.”

Thank you”
“Laura was a joy to work with! She was awesome - sending us plenty of pictures of our two cats and her messages were very detailed as to what the boys were up to and the services she provided. She was great about cleaning up after the cats (litter box and food bowls) and spent lots of time playing with them. We have never used Rover before and Laura was a great introduction to this pet service. We will be using Laura again - we give her 5 stars and highly recommend!”

About: I have had a dog in the household all my life and enjoy spending my time with pets. This past year and a half I have been working with Guide Dogs of America to raise a future service animal. I walked dogs in my neighborhood in Tampa and enjoyed every minute of it. I am currently a student at UCF studying biology on the pre-med track. I only have 2 classes a day which leaves lots of time for me to walk your dog! I am available most weekends as well. I have worked with animals my whole life and have their best interest at heart. I love all animals and ensure that I am making the best, most comfortable, environment for every animal I meet.

I will give your pets all my love and attention! I enjoy being active so walks and/or hikes are a plus! I love all animals & have experience with tortoises, parakeets, and dogs. I am allergic to cats unfortunately. I am very cautious and live in an apartment that has a doggy area. I am extra cautious with all pets I sit and care for.

“Addison took Smoke with zero notice and gave her so much love. We were so lucky to connect with her. She gives calm and responsible vibes, so I felt very comfortable leaving my beloved senior weimaraner with her. Thank you, Addison!”
“Evgenia and her daughter did an amazing job taking care of our puppy, Cooper! From the start, communication was excellent, and they sent us daily updates that really put us at ease while we were out of town. It was clear how loving and attentive they were with him, which meant a lot to us since he’s still so young. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such caring hands. We’re so grateful for the care they provided and would absolutely recommend Evgenia to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and kind Rover. Thank you again for treating Cooper as your own!!”

We couldn't have found a better sitter to take care of our dog!! 100% Recommended!!!”
“Danielle is one of the best I've found on Rover! She was very communicative and so great with my Theo. She sent me tons of pictures and several updates throughout the day which made me feel so much more comfortable. I would definitely bring Theo over to stay with her whenever I am in Tampa again! <3”
“I’ve been sending my dog to Virginia for day care since I work and wanted him to be more active during the day. I was skeptical at first to send keep him to a strangers house all day but I am so happy with how much she cares for Toby throughout the day. Toby loves her so much and has a blast throughout the day. A day full of walks, belly scratches, play time, and fun. Could not recommend her more. She is very flexible with hours as well, which helps a lot with my work schedule. If you book through her, I promise you won’t want to book with anyone else!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Michelle. My dog is super anxious, so I was really worried about leaving her in someone else’s care—but the minute Michelle opened the door, Mabel ran right in. It was an instant bond. Both Mabel and I could immediately feel Michelle’s warmth and kindness. I felt completely at ease knowing she’s an experienced dog sitter and that Mabel was in such good hands. When I picked Mabel up, she was calm and happy. Now, whenever we go back, Mabel runs straight through the door, so excited to see her—which says everything.”

One thing we appreciate most is how dependable she is — Serena is always willing to step in and help whenever we need extra support, which has been such a lifesaver for us. Her communication and reliability are top-notch, and we always feel confident knowing Rebel is in great hands.

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m currently serving in the Navy while attending college, and I bring that same level of discipline, reliability, and attention to detail into my work with animals. I specialize in working with dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I trained my golden retriever, Eleanor, from severe anxiety, she couldn’t even tolerate a leash at first, to becoming a confident, happy dog through consistent, positive reinforcement. That experience taught me how to read body language, build trust, and adapt to each dog’s unique personality. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or needs structure, I provide safe, attentive, and engaging walks tailored to their needs. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize their comfort and well-being. I’d love to meet your pup, feel free to reach out to schedule a walk! Caring for dogs is something I naturally build into my day. I already plan my routine around my own dog, Eleanor, so adding walks, playtime, and check-ins for other dogs fits in seamlessly. I’m used to staying consistent with schedules, and I make sure every dog gets the time, attention, and care they need. It’s something I genuinely enjoy, not just something I fit in. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk times, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. In a client’s home, I make sure the environment stays clean, safe, and stress-free, and I respect the space as if it were my own. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and body language to ensure they’re comfortable, especially for dogs who may be anxious or adjusting. In my own home, I provide a structured, calm environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and positive interaction. I prioritize safety at all times and never leave pets unattended in situations that could be stressful or unsafe. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they feel confident and connected while they’re away.
About: I grew up taking care of puppies and dogs of all types. I tend to gravitate in any situation towards animals first. While I have no formal training in dog training, I have learned quite a bit throughout my years. My schedule sometimes varies through out the week but it is 99% night shifts, so 3pm until about midnight at the latest. I am available anytime during the day. I live alone with just my 4 year old cat in a decently sized 1 bedroom apartment. I am on the second floor with no elevator. I will be very respectful to your home and your pets, just as I expect someone to be in my home. I pay attention to details and will make sure to take great care of your fur babies.
About: I have had dogs and cats since I was 3 and have been both dog and cat sitter in the past. I have cats personally but looking forward for long walks with puppies when I can! I work remote and have a very flexible schedule. I can take pets for walks or just come spend quality time with your loved one I live in an apartment with cats of my own, so I will not be able to board pets. I am able to go check in as much as needed
“Summer is the absolute best. She was such a god send for us when moving to Tampa and finding someone to take care of our boy, Louie. Super reliable, communicative, responsive. Just the absolute best. Can’t recommend her enough for your pet care needs!!”

About: I have been caring for cats and dogs for over 10 years. I have cared for senior dogs (15+ years old) with tasks such as administering medicine, following special dietary restrictions or feeding schedules, hourly potty breaks, helping older pets get around, long walks or trips to the park, and of course play and cuddle time!! I have grown up with both dogs and cats, and rescued a cat of my own in 2021 from a kill shelter. I have provided extended pet care (over 7 days staying overnight) as well as short check ins to go potty and play as well! I work remote so I am at home during the day and can work from any location, so I can always be available for your pet and their needs! I love staying active, and make walks a priority in my day, so I would love to take your pet along with me! On weekends, I am usually at home besides going to the gym, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet! In my own home, I care for my cat by feeding him when I wake up at 7am, and giving him fresh water. Around 10am I give him some of his favorite treats. He typically hangs out on my bed right next to my desk while I work, so we get some quality cuddling time during the day. In the afternoons we play with his mouse toy when he's not napping. After work I feed him and clean his litter box before heading to the gym. When I come home from the gym we usually hangout on my bed until going to sleep. I would follow this similar routine with a clients pet in my home/clients home unless given specific care instructions to follow. For dogs, I will take them on 2 walks (one in the morning and one in the evening) and then multiple potty breaks throughout the day (unless other instructions are specified by clients). I am available for longer house sitting stays, short check ins for playing and potty breaks, or even just to take your pet for a walk!
“Parker was so wonderful and really helped out in a pinch. She came through when our other walker fell through and ended up being so much better. She is sweet and thoughtful and so responsible with our boy. Will definitely seek her services again and would highly recommend her for any kind of pet care you need.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was little ranging from a 9 pound Havanese to a 100 pound Lab. In recent years, dog sitters were incredibly helpful when I was working in an office full time. Now that I have a flexible schedule, I’m excited to help take care of your pups. I can easily fit walks and drop-in visits into my schedule. I work from home and have free time after work and on the weekends. For any dog walks or drop-ins let me know if your dog prefers yard play, fetch, or other forms of engagement. It’s also helpful to know favorite toys.
About: Hello! I am a responsible, energetic, and flexible young professional who loves meeting and caring for new dogs! After moving to Tampa from up north in Maryland, I was so sad to have to leave my labradoodle, Buster, at home. I have missed caring for a dog of my own, so what better remedy than taking care of new pups from around my neighborhood! I have several years of pet care experience, from the puppy stage all the way to adult. I love taking walks on Bayshore, and am close to several outdoor parks! I am available every day in the afternoon/evening, and generally in the early mornings. I can't wait to give your dog the best overnight experience possible, including walks in the fresh air, playtime, belly rubs, snuggles, and so much love!!!

“We were so happy to find Melinda and David! They watched our two dogs while we were gone for the weekend and took amazing care of them! They truly love animals, and we loved knowing that our pups were safe and happy while we were gone. They went above and beyond to make our dogs comfortable in their home, and they were great at communicating and providing daily updates. Our pups loved the daily walks and lots of play, and they were clearly happy and comfy and having a great time! It’s always so hard to leave them behind, but it’s easier knowing they’re getting the attention and care they need and deserve. Melinda & David were so nice and friendly, and they truly cared about our dogs. We will definitely be asking Melinda & David the next time we need someone to watch our pups!”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Katherine and her family provided to our 10 year old goldendoodle! We loved the daily updates and photos and could rest easy knowing he was in good hands.”
“Samuel is amazing to leave my dog (Aero) with. Aero is always excited to go back to visit. He is extremely accommodating with last minute situations and travel problems, always is willing to keep an extra day. He is the only rover I use now!”
“Bre was absolutely incredible with our dog. She’s extremely communicative with multiple updates and pictures daily. Our’s and her dog, Marco, got along great and our dog can’t wait for us to leave town again.”
“My dog April was treated like royalty with Kathryn and her husband. They are great people and truly love and care for animals. They even sent April home with a souvenir. Definitely recommend her!”
“Chante was wonderful with our dog, Summer! She did a meet and greet with us beforehand, which made us feel completely comfortable. During Summer’s stay, Chante sent us daily pictures and updates. Summer was well cared for and happy doggo. She had a great time with Chante and her dog. We’ll definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend!”
“Grace was the best! She was super flexible with pickup and drop off times and sent me pictures and videos throughout my dogs entire stay! Would 100% recommend her ☺️☺️”
“Bella was so great with my pup Gino. She sent so many photos and updates while I was away and he came back to me happy and healthy. I will definitely be a return customer and can confidently recommend her to others!”
“Brian & his family were so nice & pleasant! Our pup seemed to have loved playing with the other dogs while we were away. We received pictures & updates throughout our stay. Thank you!”
“Haley was absolutely wonderful! We had to extend our time with her unexpectedly, and she accommodated us willingly—even on short notice. Her flexibility and kindness made a stressful situation much easier, and we’re so grateful for her support.”
“Our dog Margaux had the best time staying with Autumn and their dog Baylor. Autumn was a very thorough caretaker and sent us lots of pictures and videos while we were away. She gave us plenty of updates and our dog looked sad to leave them when we picked her up! We will definitely be contacting Autumn again for our future Rover needs.”
