“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the moment we met her, we knew Luna was in great hands. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Luna wasn’t just being watched…she was genuinely cared for and loved. When we picked Luna up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy who treats your dog like family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Luna!”

“Hermun was perfect for my Aussie, Dixie! Very high level of communication (w/ pics), love for dogs & great insights on training! Riley was a good friend to Dixie! I will be rebooking soon!”
“Nicole was a wonderful host and sitter for my 1-yr old cat. She was also very accommodating when I had a travel delay on my return home. Above all, I really appreciate that she was patient with Bella, who can be a little shy and timid at times. She was even able to get her to snuggle on the couch! I would definitely hire Nicole for future pet sitting :)”
“I was very pleased with Haley's care of Mika. When I left her, she was having a bout of collapsed trachea and coughing a lot, so I was a bit worried. Haley administered her medicine, and she hasn't coughed once since I brought her home. Besides that, Haley was very business-like about the details of having Mika and her stuff ready at the time I was to pick her up. I especially appreciated the photos and updates.”

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, dogs that need medication, and dogs with seizure disorders. I also have a dog child that is a mini Goldendoodle, Clover, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home while going to school full time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that lets me give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to stick to their routine. I truly enjoy caring for animals, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ** I will consider long term pet/house sitting by request ** I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to medications, crate time, playtime, and any other preferences you have to help them feel comfortable and at home.
“Samantha was A-MAZ-ING! One of our two cats had a health issue while we were gone. Samantha contacted me about taking her to the vet, and she came back for an additional visit to get my cat to the vet at the correct time. She had great communication with me throughout, and added extra visits to accommodate the medication schedule the vet prescribed. She did a great job giving the cat her medicine and giving both cats love and attention (brushing, petting, special treats) throughout the week that we were gone. I would not hesitate to book Smanatha again.”
“Summer was amazing! She took care of our two cats (1 year old and 12 years old) while we were out of town for a week. She was very communicative and sent pics and videos throughout her visits. We knew our babies were taken care of and looked forward to the updates every day.”
“Chloe is awesome and highly recommended :) She sent so many adorable pictures of my cat while I was out of town and took great care of him. I had also asked if she could feed my fish and she was super kind in agreeing to that too! Absolutely wonderful, dropped in at consistent times each day and I could tell from the photos that my cat was very happy to have her there :) Thanks so much Chloe!!!”
“Kory did a great job watching my cat Mojo, he spent time with him and gave me updates everyday :) Highly recommend Kory to take care of your pet”
“Bekah is super communicative and a caring sitter! I can tell she really loves animals and was excited to hang out with my cat Hank. 10/10 will be using her again!”
About: I’m definitely someone who will treat your pet like my own! I’m very attentive and love giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles.

“Addison was amazing with my 3 cats! It was so reassuring to be on vacation and know my cats were well-loved and taken care of while I was gone. Highly recommend!!”
“Absolutely amazing! Natalie did more than asked and followed instructions perfectly. She was very communitive while I was away for a whole week. She played with kitties and they loved her!! Recommend.”
About: I grew up with cats my entire life and have experience with all kinds of personalities. I currently have two cats of my own—a sweet, cuddly cat and a very sassy one—so I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and boundaries. My first job actually started when I was 11, when I began cat sitting for my aunt while she traveled for work. I understand how important it is to follow your cat’s routine and your specific instructions. Whether your cat is shy, playful, independent, or needs a little extra patience, medications specific diet. I’ll always respect their boundaries and do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is being well cared for.
“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of my cat Teddy! He has been going through a lot and is on new medication, but Amanda gave him his meds no problem. She was great at scooping his litter box and cleaning up after him. She’s an amazing sitter, will definitely use again!”
“We love Beth! My cat “vacations” at her home often. We just did a big move and she kept our baby calm and loved so she could come to her new home and explore while she’s in a good mood. Honestly couldn’t ask for anything more!”
About: I have had dogs all my life, my parents would be at work most of the day so I would take my dogs for walks, feed them, and take care of them. I am committed to creating a nurturing and safe environment for every dog under my care, treating them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners by ensuring their furry friends receive the highest level of attention and love! I am a senior at George Mason University and have full availability! If I don't send pictures over the Rover app, I send them directly over text:) I follow the pet's established routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise schedules, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I spend quality time with each pet, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, reducing any anxiety they might feel in their owner's absence.

About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Coco had the best day at daycare! She came home calm, happily tired, and smelling great, even with an adorable new bandana. They give constant detailed updates throughout the day which gives such peace of mind. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Pamela was so incredibly helpful by taking my little buddy last minutes notice. She sent tons of fun photo updates. I will definitely recommend her and am so glad I have a new sitter I can count on when I’m in need.”
“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!”
“Crystal was amazing with my puppy! She spent two full workdays with Scout while I had to be in the office, and since Scout is only 12 weeks old and full of energy, that’s no small task. Crystal handled everything so well and made me feel completely at ease. Scout was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. I would absolutely recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

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.

“An absolute God-send! I live about 3 hours away and was coming to town for an event. Summer met me at Ulta to take my dog while I got my hair and make up done. Because I went to the wrong Ulta, i was late and she was so accommodating (I communicated for her, so do the same!). She even helped me keep my appointment there while she waited for my dog and I. My dog came back tail wagging and so happy she got to play ALL the fetch!!! Couldn’t recommend her more.”
About: I’m organized, reliable, and really focused on keeping your pet comfortable and on their normal routine. I live in a walkable area with access to a dog park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks and playtime. I also make communication a priority and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. 🐾💕 Chanel is a big part of my daily routine! I make sure she’s fed, has a clean space, gets plenty of attention and playtime, and of course, lots of cuddles. She’s very social and loves being around people, so I’m used to having a pet as part of my everyday life. Caring for her has also taught me how important it is to be consistent with a pet’s routine and give them the attention they need. My apartment is a safe, clean, and comfortable space for pets. I’m very mindful about keeping doors and windows secure and making sure there aren’t things around that could be harmful to them.🤍🐈

“Iliana took very good care of my baby girl. She kept the house clean, communicated with me daily, and followed the instructions I left. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous to trust a stranger but I was pleased with the outcome and would use Iliana again.”
“Kelsey was truly amazing! I hired her last minute after my previous walker moved, and she was incredibly accommodating, which meant so much since my dog is a newly adopted rescue. She was always on time, very responsive, and kept me at ease with her detailed report cards after each walk. It was clear that she treated Honey like her own dog and genuinely cared about her comfort and happiness. I’m so grateful to have found Kelsey and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker.”

About: Hello, potential new friend, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and training levels. I regularly puppy-sit guide dogs in training and have been educated on the specific standards and routines they must follow. This experience has strengthened my understanding of positive reinforcement, consistency, patience, and responsible pet care. Dogs and pups will always have close supervision, which is why I only like to pup sit two dogs at a time for an intimate sitting experience. I know all the nearby dog-friendly places to go. At night, I love cuddling up with pets. Our neighborhood is very pet friendly. I am ready and prepared to host your puppy. I even have a puppy first aid kit in our house, and our vet is less than a 5 min drive away, just in case. As you can see dogs are my passion and I will care for your pooch with love and kindness.

Because my schedule is flexible, I can closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, playtime, medication, and rest routine.

My home is currently pet-free, so visiting dogs and cats can enjoy a calm environment without having to adjust to resident animals. Pets are welcome on the sofa and are encouraged to relax and make themselves comfortable. I provide close supervision, keep doors and entryways secure, and carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medication, sleeping arrangements, and household rules. I also prefer to care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention.

Whether your dog requires frequent walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I am happy to work with you to create a personalized care plan that fits your dog's routine. Rest assured that I will keep you updated throughout the day with pictures and updates so you can be confident that your pup is happy and well-cared for. As a past pet owner, I understand how important it is to ensure the safety and well-being of your pet. When caring for pets, I prioritize trust, safety, and comfort above all else. In my apartment, I keep a clean and tidy space that is safe for your pet to relax and enjoy their stay. I am committed to providing the best possible care for your pet. I make sure to take your dog on frequent walks and provide plenty of opportunities for exercise and playtime, whether it's in a nearby park or just a walk around the block. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their routine as closely as possible to minimize any stress or anxiety they may experience from being away from their owner. Above all, I treat every dog in my care with the love and attention I would give to my own pets, so you can rest assured that your furry friend is in good hands!
About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

“I received many photos showing that Jax was happy, entertained, and relaxed. I liked that he was with other dogs, and that Erving was present most of the time with them. Very happy with the service.”
“I was very pleased with Haley's care of Mika. When I left her, she was having a bout of collapsed trachea and coughing a lot, so I was a bit worried. Haley administered her medicine, and she hasn't coughed once since I brought her home. Besides that, Haley was very business-like about the details of having Mika and her stuff ready at the time I was to pick her up. I especially appreciated the photos and updates.”
