“Joshua took amazing care of our dog Mya while we were away. From the start, they were super responsive and made sure to accommodate everything we needed. During Mya’s stay, Joshua kept us in the loop with regular updates and cute photos, which really put our minds at ease knowing she was doing well. Plus, when our plans changed last minute, they were totally flexible and made everything stress-free for us. We’ll definitely be reaching out to them again next time we need a sitter!”

“Our dogs loved their stay with Elena! She provided updates and photos everyday. It was our dogs first time away from us and Elena made sure they were comfortable and happy! We are happy to have found Elena on Rover, highly recommend.”
“Would highly recommend Kristin! She sent a lot of updates and my dogs seemed to be having a great time the entire time they were in her care. Everyone in her family is a dog lover so there was no shortage of attention to go around. Looking forward to using her again in the future!”

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and secure environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. There are no other animals in my apartment and I live with one roommate.
“Bella stayed with Maxine for two weeks while I was away for my destination wedding, and I never had to worry about her for a second. Maxine sent regular updates and plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Being able to fully enjoy my wedding without worrying about my doggy baby’s well-being was truly priceless. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Bella. And the little fashion shows always made me smile! Thank you so much, Maxine, for taking such wonderful care of her.”
“Kept me up to date with photos and videos while I was gone for the week of Christmas. Chante is a great person to look after your pets and I will be using her again in the future if I need to.”

“Hermun was amazing! (As well as her trusted assistant, Riley - her adorable Beagle). She met with me before I booked and let Macie explore her home and check compatibility with our dogs. She would send me daily pictures and was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. I wasn’t worried about Macie’s happiness or safety. She has a great back yard which is protected and gated allowing Macie to enjoy the outdoors. I will absolutely rely on Hermun and Riley for future visits.”

“Always amazing!! My dog loves boarding with Iliana!! She always has such a good time there and she is always well taken care of!! I definitely recommend and will continue bringing Roxie here for boarding!”
“Our original sitter canceled last minute due to a family emergency. I contacted Stephanie less than 24 hrs in advance, and she was able to accommodate our stay. My dog Loki can be very timid at first in new environments, but with time was able to open up within Stephanie’s home. She makes sure to send daily photos, updates, and also will take your dog for daily walks. I felt extremely comfortable having Loki there, and would book again in the future!”
“Sharii is absolutely amazing with Millie! Every time we get near her street, Millie starts whining because she’s so excited to see her again, it’s the sweetest thing! It gives us such peace of mind knowing our baby is in such caring, attentive hands. Thank you, Sharii, for treating Millie like your own 🩷”

“Madisyn was so easy and great to work with! Knox had an amazing time and he was so wiped when I got him! She even sent him home with a bandana!!”

About: I am a PhD student at the University of South Florida, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. Over the past five years while in graduate school, I have regularly house sat for several families and cared for a variety of breeds. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including young puppies and dogs that require medication. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with both your pet and your home. I have a 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer (high energy working breed) that my partner and I raised from puppyhood, so I am very familiar with high-energy, intelligent dogs that need plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment. Raising him has given me firsthand experience with puppy training, establishing routines, and all the challenges and rewards that come with energetic young dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I will do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pride myself on being responsible, communicative, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I have a pretty flexible schedule during the week outside of classes. I have lots of time to check in on animals and take them for walks. I am a very responsible and will ensure that your pet is safe, happy and healthy. I will be sure to give them lots of exercise and love!
“Raquel is the best. This is my second time hiring her. She so obviously loves cats. When I’m away I need to know my baby is in good hands and he always is with her. Thank you Raquel.”
“Rachel was great with our two cats. I loved the daily photos. Shortly after we left there was an issue with an automatic feeding dish and she notified us immediately. She even went and got replacement batteries for the dish. The cats seemed to love her and very friendly to her, not scared at all. I would and probably will rehire her in a heartbeat. I recommend her to anyone that needs a pet sitter.”
About: I have some training experience Over 5yrs experience Dogs of all shapes and sizes Personalized care My longest running client is a Pitbull named Bear who, when i first met him would be very anxious on walks. Through years of working with him he's now a much more confident walker. So please believe me when I say I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I did recently start working in the area. I'm still very new to the area. I can usually accommodate upon requests. More so if scheduled in advance. Within my over 5 yrs experience caring for puppers I have cared for them at both my house and at my client's house. I have always maintained a clean environment, personalized care in that I will maintain your rules concerning your dog. Above ALL else I MUST maintain trust with my clients. If you or your dog don't trust me then I can't do my job and worse yet it's usually the dog that suffers in the long run.

“Rez had such a good time! We are very happy we went with Rover and Elena and her family. We received constant updates and were very well communicated with. Will definitely be leaving our baby with them again!”
“Chante was great! We needed someone to watch our 6 month old puppy for a couple of days of daycare and our pup had a great time! She played all day in Chante’s large fenced in backyard with Makeda and came home happy and sleepy! Chante was super accommodating of our schedules and super quick to respond throughout the day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their pups!”
“Burphee enjoyed himself and felt safe with her. She was extremely caring and made sure I was comfortable with the whole process too. I highly recommend.”
“Amanda and Matthew were excellent! When I dropped Xoey off, Amanda was welcoming and invited me to see her home where Xoey would be staying. Their pup is just the sweetest and got along great with mine! I could tell they provided great care to my baby and I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again next time we're in the Tampa area!”
“Haley was amazing! She was so understanding and accommodating with our very very shy puppy. She was wonderful with making him feel comfortable even when he was trying to hide. She also kept us updated throughout the day with pictures which we loved! She was the first Dogsitter we’ve had since our pup is terrified of everyone and everything but she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about everything!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since the age of 11 and I have 4+ years of experience at a dog daycare/boarding facility. I have a big heart for dogs, especially brachycephalic breeds and seniors. My dream pup is a boxer and I strive to help any pup I come across, especially strays and have fostered many pups in the past. I regularly provide neighbors dogs with nail trims, baths, and have provided boarding, in home, drop-in and overnight care for pets of all sizes. I have two small dogs at one, one being a pug puppy who is still learning manners, however both of my pups love making new friends, especially with bigger dogs and Finnegan is great at bringing shy dogs out of their shell. I currently work from home full time and I am able to spend as much time as needed with your furbabies to ensure they are comfortable, including overnights! I always double check fences and gates prior to letting dogs outside. I make sure to keep a close eye on dogs while they're eating or drinking to ensure their safety.
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, I bring a deep love and understanding to each animal I look after. From playing with energetic pups to providing extra care for senior dogs, I offer personalized, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. Your furry family members will be in trusted, caring hands with me. Working from home allows me to offer flexible pet care throughout the week. I’m available for both weekday and weekend services, adapting my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a daily visit or extended care, I can provide consistent and attentive support for your fur baby. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and welcoming environment with a fully-fenced yard, cozy beds, and plenty of toys. I provide flexible care with options like beds in my workspace for pets needing extra comfort and both large and small crates for those who feel more comfortable with their own space. I take regular breaks during the day to take pups out for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. My 6-year-old chihuahua mix loves new furry friends and will happily run around with other playful pups. My young child happily helps with animal responsibilities while also understanding the importance of respect and boundaries for all animals. Velcro dogs who prefer constant companionship are especially welcome to snuggle on the furniture and stay close.
“I will ask Raquel to look after Puzo every time! She’s wonderful and he loves her. She’s super easy to communicate with and works with you so nothing is a burden. HIGHLY recommend!”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles and farm animals since I was young! I currently own my own business so my schedule is very flexible. Perfect for those last minute occasions that pop up. Available whenever needed to take care of your fur baby! The health, wellbeing and safety of your animal is of my utmost concern. I’ll always have your dog on a leash outside (unless you have a fenced in yard) and monitor their reaction to the environment. If there’s anything “off” about your pet I’ll notify you ASAP.
About: I've always been a dog lover. I think they're an important part of every human being's life. I love playing with them, talking to them, and singing to them. Every time I meet one, I always approach them, and they feel comfortable around me. I am available throughout the day to care for your beloved puppies. I have full availability and would be delighted to provide my services with great responsibility, dedication, and genuine love for animals. 🐾 I have a house with a fenced yard and two very friendly little dogs who would love to play with new friends. They'd stay inside the house, go out to the yard to go to the bathroom, and play a little during the day if they like.
“Roberto was great! All of the dogs he had at his house were very well behaved and I could tell that my pup had a BLAST. He was exhausted by the time he got home! I could tell he was well taken care of and would definitely use him again! Thanks Roberto!”
About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting since 2015, it started out looking after my neighbor’s 2 dogs and before i knew it, the good word spread around in my neighborhood and i became the local pet sitter, everything grew after that. Not to mention i have been around dogs my whole life, my mom had 3 growing up. i realized that although im able to make money from this, it doesn't feel like a job to me at all because i absolutely love animals and i feel good taking care of them. i can say that i have found my passion in the process. i provide 5 star service and keep great communication with the owners. i am very trustworthy, and have many references to support my claims which are available upon request. i love what i do and if you allow me the opportunity to show you, i will provide great value to you and your pet’s needs. i am able to fulfill custom requests as well. anything else you would like to know just ask me, i am very transparent and personable.

God bless. i left my former job in 2019 to become a full time pet caretaker. my schedule is flexible, and i will most likely be able to meet your availability needs. i have set up my home to be a very safe and pet-friendly environment, they have space to roam around inside and outdoor availability as well. There is also a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. i am very respectful when entering other people’s homes and i view it as a privilege that they trust me in their home. i mind my own business and only do what the owner asks of me. i treat other’s homes as i would want mine to be treated.
“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!”
“Amanda was super flexible! I am new to Rover and messed up on how I had my pick up time. Amanda was very understanding and was able to accommodate the change. I got updates and pictures of Disa. Disa was so much happier after her visit with Amanda and her family than she has been with others--it was just a great fit for Disa and her personality. Amanda asked lots of great questions about Disa at drop off that made me feel better about leaving her. Thank you Amanda for making Disa comfortable and keeping her happy!”

About: I accept same day bookings but there will be 2 dollar upcharge for my non-repeating customers the first time. I have a full time job currently I work 8am-5pm. On the occasions that I can not make your animal at all times but you still would like to book my wife has all the same credentials as me and can stop in also. During the summer my walking price is a bit elevated than drop in due to the weather. I’m currently working 7-3:45p Monday through Friday in office, so on weekdays I’m only available after 430p. My weekends are usually pretty open from morning to evening. My wife currently has THURS AND FRIDAY and after noon weekends in my home we have gates to keep taller dogs out unnecessary areas, and also a lot of brain games to keep dogs interested. I love going on walks and short runs with my own dogs.
“Virginia was wonderful! She did an amazing job sending videos and pictures throughout the day, which made me feel so reassured. My puppy absolutely loved playing with her pup, and he matched her energy so well. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was happy, engaged, and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Virginia!”
“Madisyn is the best! My dog Steven has been going to her for about a month and he absolutely adores her! She has three dogs so Steven always has friends to play with, and she even takes them to the park and sends pics and videos. He comes home happy, exhausted, and cleaned so well I'd never have known he was playing outside if I hadn't gotten videos. Highly recommend her!”

“Summer is an absolute gem! She is absolutely wonderful with communication, super reliable, and loves our boy, Louie, like her own. We are so fortunate to have found her!!”
“Iliana has walked Honey multiple times. She’s wonderful with her. She is overly communicative, trustworthy, sweet to Honey, and always willing to help with whatever. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Johnny is the best! He treats our dogs like his own and is communicative, trustworthy, and kind. He is a pleasure to work with. We are so glad we found him to do drop ins for us, and cannot recommend him enough!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for years. I have rescued 4, and I enjoy every breed. I worked at a veterinary clinic for 2 years which allowed me to gain experience in administering medicine, and keeping animal spaces clean. I am currently a full time student athlete, so I am busy. However, that never stopped me from taking care of my animals at home. Going on walks and playing with animals is a genuine experience that relieves me of the stresses in college. My day does start relatively early; however, I have a lot of time in between classes and other activities. I plan to care for your pets depending on their needs and your home. If you have a yard that would be a great area for them to play outside; however if you do not, I am more than happy to take them on walks or to dog parks.
“AJ has been walking both of our cane corsos for a few months - they are large and one of them takes a while to warm up to people. Through the whole process he has been patient, kind, and respectful and has gained the full trust and friendship of my big pups. He goes out of his way to make them comfortable and they just LOVE his walks, visits, and belly rubs. I couldn’t recommend AJ more.”
About: From a young age, we’ve nurtured a deep love for animals, caring for a wide range of pets with tenderness and compassion. We’ve always felt a strong connection to the animals we look after, seeing them as beloved companions. One of our proudest achievements is raising our dog from a puppy, guiding her through training to become a well-behaved, affectionate adult. We’ve also had the privilege of caring for a neighbor’s senior dog, providing comfort and companionship. This experience reflects our genuine passion for animals and our commitment to their happiness and well-being. We work remote with flexible work hours and have a dog of our own. She often goes for walks and of course requires some belly scratches. Our home has a fenced in yard and we personally have a 8 year old cocker spaniel that loves to play but then also likes to chill. She matches the energy around her. We do not have dog crates, if your fur baby is crate trained, we request you provide a crate for their stay.
About: I always make sure the dogs feel loved whether it’s playing with them outside, taking them for walks, or just cuddling with them. I’ve always loved dogs and I will always make sure they’re safe. I am a college student so I do have classes but for most weekends I am free and I do have days off of classes. I always show them love with cuddles, I will play with them with their toys, take them for long walks, make sure they’re fed, give them treats if they’re being good or did tricks.
“Nigel carried my "baby" home the other day because she couldn't make it back on her own. He let me know and checked back in with between visits to see if she was ok. I knew Nigel was special since he began helping me with my dog but he went above and beyond, carrying a 65 pound pit bull home instead of dragging her and using harsh commands. I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”
“Great with my pup. Always on time and accommodated to any change. I wish she could keep walking Rafa but I understand she has other commitments. Emma gave me enough advance notice, which shows being responsible and respectful. I will definitely trust her with my pup again ??”
“Sophie was fantastic. She was a great communicator and extremely patient with my dog, Loki, who was meeting her for the first time and takes some time warming up to new people. Would highly recommend.”
About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm never out of the house for long. Maybe 4 hours max, but rarely more than 2. Our old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Fenced in yard. We have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. We had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
“Windell was awesome!!! I will definitely be using his services whenever my Best friend Bam Bam can’t tag along with me! Thank you so much for taking such great care of my boy!! We will see you next time!!!”
“This was our first time leaving our girls since the pandemic started, so we were a bit nervous. Nelly took great care of our two terriers for a few days! She sent updates and pictures throughout their stay as well. I would highly recommend Nelly! We will certainly hire her again.”
“Always amazing!! My dog loves boarding with Iliana!! She always has such a good time there and she is always well taken care of!! I definitely recommend and will continue bringing Roxie here for boarding!”
“Our original sitter canceled last minute due to a family emergency. I contacted Stephanie less than 24 hrs in advance, and she was able to accommodate our stay. My dog Loki can be very timid at first in new environments, but with time was able to open up within Stephanie’s home. She makes sure to send daily photos, updates, and also will take your dog for daily walks. I felt extremely comfortable having Loki there, and would book again in the future!”
“Sharii is absolutely amazing with Millie! Every time we get near her street, Millie starts whining because she’s so excited to see her again, it’s the sweetest thing! It gives us such peace of mind knowing our baby is in such caring, attentive hands. Thank you, Sharii, for treating Millie like your own 🩷”
“Madisyn was so easy and great to work with! Knox had an amazing time and he was so wiped when I got him! She even sent him home with a bandana!!”
“Maddie and her baby Banks are great! The times that I have used her to watch my puppy, she has been very accommodating and flexible with my schedule. Banks is a sweetheart and loves my 8 month boxer puppy and plays with her all day. Which is great because by the time I get her, it takes her a couple of days for her to recover and if you know boxers, they have a lot of energy! Maddie is highly recommended, not only is she reasonable in price, she is caring with animals and has great communication skills. I will continue to use her!”
“Rachel was great and took awesome care of my dog! She works from home so she was there at all times and even took him out to the dog park. If you’re leaving your pet with Rachel you are in good hands!”
“It’s people like Seaura that make Life better for everyone else. I was in a crunch trying to find someone at the last minute to keep my babies so we can attend my son’s high school graduation an hour from our home. Seaura answered my request quickly and graciously and I immediately got great vibes during our conversation! She welcomed both my pups with open arms for the last two days and they were happy to be with her. Her home was lovely and she kept me abreast of the “goings on”. I would chose Seaura any time we are in her area again!”
“SO SO NICE! Lynn and her husband are such nice people. Cookie was so happy by them. She had access to a nice yard and the whole house. I got pictures and messages letting me know she was having a good time. They took great care of her. I already wanted to book a second time but they are not going to be in town.”
“My Hazel has a leg injury and I was most nervous that it would worsen but Trevor really watched over her and she is doing really well. He was super communicative, and it was clear that my two dogs liked him as he observed all the behaviors that they exhibit around people they are comfortable with. I love that he had other dogs and disclosed that to me before hand. Nothing like a doggie resort vacation!!! He was super aware of all the dogs play styles and attentive to balancing each animal. I highly recommend Trevor and will most definitely look to book with him anytime I am in Florida!”
“Our Sunny always has a great time while we’re away. He’s young and we’re still working on training. We appreciate the willingness to continue with routines while he’s there. Excellent communication as well. We will continue using them as long as they’ll have him.”
