I would 100% recommend Catherine for anyone who wants to leave their pup with a loving sitter! 🤍”

Just from him taking the extra time a day prior to walk the home and perform a meet and greet with the pets, consistently staying in communication, providing pictures and asking for additional ways he could help ensure the puppies would not feel lonely. I fully recommend anyone that is very particular about there four legged family members :) give Anthony a chance, you won’t regret it.”

“He came with his girlfriend to my house, and they were both incredibly friendly and kind. They were so gentle and caring with my dog, which made me very happy. I really appreciated their excellent service. Thank you so much—5 stars!”
About: I have been dog sitting since I was about for about 7 years for neighbors and friends. I have also walked my elderly neighbor's dog for them when they were unable to. I am currently working full time but I love to go on long walks in my spare time! I enjoy being outside and meeting new fur babies. Depending on how you request, I could meet you at your front door or come into your home to retrieve your fur baby to take them on a walk. I do understand that living in Florida where is mostly hot and humid and some dogs cannot handle the heat or become exhausted easily. However long you request to have your dog walked I will bring a water bowl for your pet to stay hydrated. :) I am currently working full time but I am trying to open up my schedule more by the end of summer. But I am currently available on the weekends and some days during the week. I can be flexible to just message me and I will let you know! Walking your dog around your neighborhood where your fur baby is familiar is important to me! I will make sure your fur baby has plenty of water and time to enjoy themselves on our walk. For drop ins I will sit with your baby as long as is needed. Making sure they get cuddles, stimulation, meds, and just some human time.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life, not just as a sitter, but as someone who has shown up for them. I raised my own dog from puppyhood all the way through her senior years, and I was there for every stage in between. I also cared for my roommate's elderly dog who had one ear and cataracts, making sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved every single day. Now I have a rescue pup of my own, so I understand firsthand the patience and heart it takes to care for a dog with a unique background. As a former D1 athlete, staying active is just part of who I am, which means your dog will always get a real walk, not just a quick trip around the block. Whether your pup is young and energetic or older and needs a gentler touch, I know how to meet them where they are. Your dog deserves someone who genuinely cares, and that's exactly what I bring every time! I recently moved to Tampa and love making pet care a core part of my routine here. My schedule is flexible, so I can work around your pet's needs, whether that's an early morning walk, midday visit, or an afternoon outing. I'm passionate about staying active, and getting outside with a dog is one of my favorite parts of the day, so the more time we get together, the better! When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I'd want for my own. Your pet's routine, comfort, and environment stay exactly as they know it! I work around their schedule. I make sure they're secure, stimulated, and never left feeling unsettled. With experience caring for senior dogs with special needs, I'm attentive to the little things that make a big difference, whether that's medication reminders, mobility limitations, or just knowing when a dog needs quiet time vs. playtime. Your home and your pet are in trustworthy hands.
About: Hi! I’m Haley! 🐾 I’m a Doctor of Nursing Practice student at USF and a lifelong dog lover. My rescue dog, Banjo, is my best friend and has made me love and appreciate dogs even more! ❤️ I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pup, and I’ll treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and always happy to provide plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles! 🐶 As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I already plan my routine around my own dog, Banjo, so walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention are a natural part of my day! 🐾 I am very gentle with my pup, but also making sure that all safety measures are in place. With walking, I always analyze the situation and streets/parks we go to and make sure the environment is appropriate for the dogs. I also make sure to always have essential equipment with me, like leashes, treats and bags.

About: Hi! I’m Cassandra, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I have over 5 years of experience pet sitting for dogs of all different breeds and sizes, including senior dogs. I work from home with a flexible schedule, and I live in a safe, pet-friendly community with a dog park. I don’t have any other pets or children living with me, so you can rest assured your fur baby will have a calm environment with my full attention. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and love while you’re away! I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to make the experience as easy and worry-free as possible! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so often can accept last-minute bookings. I’m available for boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks on a weekly or as-needed basis. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with a dog park and since I don’t have pets of my own, they will have plenty of one-on-one attention. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and send daily photo updates to give you peace of mind 😊
“Samuel was extremely flexible with pickup and drop off, which made everything so easy and simple. Thank you again for taking such good care of Frénki. I really appreciate it!”
“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.”
“Such a sweet person and will make sure you get updates of your dog!! She took such good care of my puppy I recommend her 100% with how caring she is to anyones dog!! She treated my puppy like her own!”
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!
“Bruno’s first Rover experience went well! He can be selective and wary of strangers but Melinda and David made him feel comfortable and took it slow with him. Will book again! Thank you!”
“Danni was amazing! Her dog was so calm, gentle, and great with Millie. She sent frequent updates and gave Millie all the attention she craves. She was patient and took Millie on several walks. We will be back! Thank you Danni!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and gone through extensive dog training as well as being a foster mom for the Southeast Beagle Rescue. I currently have a beagle named Riley that I adopted through the Humane Society and was unfortunately one of the 4000 Envigo beagles that were rescued. He loves playing with other dogs and is very social. I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. I also have a two Dog maximum limit. About my home/services: I live in a cozy condo I own in South Tampa with a fenced in backyard. I am fine with dogs on the couch and bed. I have experience with older dogs, special needs animals and administering medication. Expect a lot of pictures and videos of your dog having fun! I require a meet and greet. This way you and your dog will be more comfortable when you leave them in my care since it will not be the first time we have met when you drop them off leading to less stress when you leave. Criteria: Activity level low to medium. Absolutely no puppies. No dogs that bark at everything (unless someone knocks at the door) or dogs with separation anxiety. We look forward to meeting you. 🐶 I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. Drop off and pick up times are from 8 AM to 9 PM. I have a fenced in backyard. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couch. Feel free to bring their bed or anything else that makes them comfortable. Whatever your rules are, they are the rules here so if they aren't allowed on furniture...no problem.
About: Hi. My name is Christie. I love animals so much and I work from home full time. I can give your pet undivided attention all day long. I grew up taking care of dogs and cats (small and big!). I currently have a pet papillon that is 4 years old. He is very well mannered & loves to play with other dogs and cats! I would love to talk about the best way to care for your baby! I work from home full time and have my own small dog so I can give your dog the attention it needs! I have a fenced in yard so your pet can have lots of play time! I will love your dog like my own! I treat dogs like humans so your dog will be pampered and given lots of attention and play time. Let’s talk about the best way to care for your pet!
About: We are lifelong animal lovers with over 30 years of combined experience caring for pets. Jeni grew up with German Shepherds and has always had a dog in the home. She began pet sitting as a service for friends and family 15 years ago. Marc also grew up with family dogs and, for the past 13 years, he’s loved on his own high-energy pup, Cooper. Now as a married couple we have a “blended family” with our senior dog Cooper and our adult dog Leila as our loyal companions. Because we both work from home with flexible schedules, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We love animals of all sizes and personalities and treat every pet like part of the family. Whether you need us to watch your dog in our home, drop in for visits, or take them on a walk, your furbaby will be in great hands! For dogs staying in our home, we have a secure fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy the outdoors. Since we both work from home, we’re able to let our own dogs outside whenever they want to go - yours will be treated just like our own! Our goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. We’re always happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands. Pet care fits naturally into our flexible work-from-home schedule, allowing frequent walks, playtime, feeding, and attentive supervision throughout the day. Our flexible schedule also gives us the chance to take the dogs on a walk through the day. 🐾 We have two dogs and a securely fenced in yard where they play outside many times a day. For stays in our home, dogs can be let outside as often as they want to go outside. For drop in visits, we follow your instructions and requests.
“I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! My dog clearly had a fantastic time—he didn't want to leave when I came to pick him up. He came home happy and tired after a fun day of walks and car rides. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs on and off since I was about 12 years old, from pet sitting for friends and family to helping care for dogs at my boyfriend’s family’s dog kennel in Virginia. I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and genuinely love spending time with them. I’ll treat your pup like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love while you’re away! When I’m not traveling for work, I work from home full-time, so I’m able to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day! My schedule is flexible for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of company. I only accept bookings when I know I’ll be home and able to give your pet the time and care they deserve. I live in a spacious apartment in a gated community with plenty of room for your pet to feel comfortable and at home. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone for long periods. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking schedule, and any specific instructions you provide. Their safety and comfort are always my priority.
“Brier was so great with my little yorkie. He went to her a few times for day care. He would have so much fun all day with her pups Milo and Marvin. She was also great at communication with sending updates throughout the day. Would definitely recommend 10/10. Thank you Brier.”
About: I am an absolute pet lover! Any time I see a dog, I stop and bond with it. We had a miniature poodle for over 17 years, who I miss daily. I have a special way with animals and shower them with love! I work from home, so I have flexibility! Because I create my own schedule, I can make sure to prioritize a pet’s needs and give them my full attention! I am very devoted to all animals I care for. They have my full attention and become my priority for the time I care for them.

“We used Cynthia 3 yrs ago when my brother got married so when it was my sister's turn we knew exactly who we wanted... Cynthia. She had simply asked if anything had changed. She remembered everything (which was a blessing because we forgot to inform her... lol) She was excited to see Peach and Pepper again and I knew that they were excited to see her. Thank you Cynthia for taking such good care of your babies again. ❤️”
About: I’ve had dogs for 20 years. I used to volunteer for the SPCA to help walk, bathe, clean and train dogs. I really enjoy working with dogs and figuring out what makes them happy! I’m currently taking classes and have loads of time for walking, boarding, or going to your house to take care of your animals. I look forward to meeting them! I have a fenced in yard in the back of the house. I have one dog - a Jack Russell / chihuahua mix (we think- she’s a rescue!)
“Brenty just loves Michelle! He went from shy to snuggles and she always takes such amazing care of him while I’m work! I I’m know he’s always in good hands!!”
“Bre was absolutely great! I had a scheduling issue with my original plans, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She adjusted the schedule to fit my family’s needs, which took a huge amount of stress off my plate. It was clear she genuinely cared about helping everything go smoothly. I really appreciated her communication, reliability, and willingness to work with us. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and understanding dog sitter/walker.”
“Andy took great care of our two finicky senior pups. He genuinely cared about our dogs’ well-being! He is very communicative and sends pics of their walks. He is on time for their walks, even worked around the rain because they were afraid to go out. Recommend 100%”
About: What sets us apart is that your dog becomes part of a real, active family home—not just a boarding situation. With a structured daily routine, lots of attention, and a home full of care, we treat every dog like they belong with us. Your pup won’t be left alone in a quiet kennel environment—they’ll be included in family life, walks, and consistent companionship. Someone is almost always home too so you know your baby is in constant care. I am a preschool teacher and am off summer and holiday breaks. I work mornings and am only a 60 second walk from the church I work at so am available to come home quickly! We have watched many, many dogs for friends and family in past and now with the kids of age to work and the love of dogs we’re expanding! I am a preschool teacher at my church that is a 60 second walk from my house, I also have teenage triplets who both babysit and dog sit (they love to do both), so someone is always home and available for walks, feedings, and love. The triplets are very active sports wise so having our own dog in this season isn’t an option so we love any and all opportunities to have one in our home, it is such a blessing! We have a wonderful, quiet street near Bayshore perfect for walking. Most of the people on our street our retired with dogs so dogs are the children around here! Having three teenagers as well who absolutely love dogs ensures your pup is being overfilled with love.
“Spencer was amazing. Great communication and went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was taken care of. I highly recommend using Spencer for any of your pet care!”
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, and pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy! 🐾 I recently moved from Kentucky to Tampa, and I’m so excited to meet all the amazing pets (and their people!) in my new community. Whether your pet needs some extra love, playtime, walks, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’d be happy to help. I can’t wait to make some new four-legged friends here in Tampa! 🐶🐱❤️ I’m currently pretty flexible and would love to work with your schedule! I’m available for pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m happy to discuss specific days and times based on your pet’s needs. Just a friendly note that I currently don’t offer pet sitting in my own home. I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in their familiar environment and routine.
About: I have my own pets and know how I would want someone to treat my animals :) looking to fill in my day with sunshine and pets! I have plenty of time for walks or drop in visits, and am happy to work with dogs and cats. I am looking to get out of my work environment and spend time with animals I will care for your pets like I would my own, and will drop in and/or walk pets happily. I have a very energetic dog at home so am used to active dogs as well as lazy ones :)
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family and deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet's unique personality and routine.

My schedule allows me to stick to your pet's normal routine, whether that means regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods, and I'll be there to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. My flexible schedule also allows me to accommodate last-minute bookings and provide dependable care when you need it most. I believe in keeping pet parents updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet by providing reliable, loving care in a safe environment.
“Jessah was great with our pup! She was very responsive, helpful, and flexible even when we wanted to add another walk at the last minute. Would definitely recommend her.”
About: I may be new to Rover, but pet sitting has been a part of my life for over 8 years! I started through word of mouth and have since cared for pets for around 10 families, many of whom I’ve continued sitting for over the years. I’ve cared for dogs from 3-month-old puppies all the way to 15-year-old seniors, along with cats and even chickens. Every pet has their own little personality and routine, and I love getting to know what makes them comfortable and happy. Whether that means lots of walks and playtime, extra attention, or just having someone there to keep them company, I want them to feel just as loved and cared for while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone, and I always care for them like I would my own. I work remotely most of the time, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m home throughout the day. I also love getting my steps in, so I’m always happy to have a dog join me for a walk! Working from home makes it easy for me to fit in walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day without disrupting their normal routine. I’m very clean and respectful of both your home and your pet’s routine. I know it can feel a little nerve-racking having someone stay in your space while you’re away, so I always make sure I leave things just as I found them. When it comes to your pets, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including meals, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and whatever else makes them feel comfortable at home. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away!

About: I grew up on a farm on the east coast of Florida & I once was a member of 4-H agriculture club. I own animals of my own; horses, dogs & chickens! I am currently working as a PRN nurse “as needed”, 3days a week. I also have weekend availability and know my schedule a month ahead of time. I have a fully fenced in large back yard and a lab/husky 10yr old dog who is friendly with any animal. I also am wanting to dog sit to have a buddy for him to play with!
About: Hello! My name is Corey. Growing up, there have always been all kinds of pets in my house. I grew up with mostly dogs and cats but I have had pigs, rabbits, fish, and hamsters so I am very good with caring for all different kinds of animals. I love going on walks through the nearby parks, on the beaches, or just around my neighborhood. I do work full time but my days off stay the same every week. I will provide great care, attention, and love while caring for your pet(s). You would be getting tons of pictures of your fur babies just so you know they’re staying happy while you’re away. Currently, I do not have any pets so I’m very excited to care and play with your little balls of joy. The photos on my profile are of family pets that I have cared for over the years. Don’t hesitate to message me with any questions. I can’t wait to hear from you! I work full time. My hours at work are usually 8:30am-5:00pm and my days off are Sun/Mon every week. I can always come by after work, or any time on my days off. Due to living in an apartment, I don't have a yard, but there is a dog park in my apartment complex that could be used for walks and playing. I can always travel to your home to care for your pet(s).

He was incredibly communicative and sent us daily updates with pictures, which eased our minds. He was very easy going and kind! We were never worried about our pup! We will definitely use Michael again.”

They looked so happy and comfortable and I could tell they were genuinely enjoying their time there (maybe a little too much 😂). We’ll absolutely be booking with them again! ❤️”

“Kyle watched my Lab/Shepherd mix, Maverick, while I was away for a wedding last weekend. From the start, he, his girlfriend, and their two dogs made me feel completely comfortable leaving Maverick in their care. Highly recommend to anyone in the Tampa area looking for someone trustworthy and reliable to watch their dog.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of numerous breeds since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. Dogs can sense my good nature, and feel safe and comfortably being handled by me, and they’re usually not reluctant to share affection with me. 😊 I have 4 days off per week to care for pets. The other 3 days I work 6 hours fairly close to my house so I can return home quickly. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room for your pet to explore and release all of its energy. I also like going on walks. I’m happy to provide attention to a pet that needs it in the home. I will pet and play fetch or other games as needed.
About: I grew up on a farm on the east coast of Florida & I once was a member of 4-H agriculture club. I own animals of my own; horses, dogs & chickens! I am currently working as a PRN nurse “as needed”, 3days a week. I also have weekend availability and know my schedule a month ahead of time. I have a fully fenced in large back yard and a lab/husky 10yr old dog who is friendly with any animal. I also am wanting to dog sit to have a buddy for him to play with!
