“This was our second time leaving Oscar with CeCe, and he had an awesome time again! I loved getting daily videos of him playing with his friends while we were away. Thank you, CeCe, for taking such wonderful care of Oscar and always going above and beyond. We appreciate you so much! ❤️”
“Kristin and her loving family were a complete godsend for my two senior dogs and me! As a new Florida resident working from home, I faced the jarring predicament of leaving my fur babies behind for the first time—with my entire support system over 3,000 miles away. After a recent sitter horror story, I was anxious about finding someone trustworthy. Kristin’s exceptional communication, endless affection for my dogs, and frequent updates (FOMO!) put me at ease immediately. Her thoughtful care, attention to my dogs’ needs, and warm, cuddly family made it clear—they weren’t just being watched; they were being loved. Seeing them so happy truly filled me with gratitude. If you’re a fellow Tampa newcomer or simply hesitant about entrusting your pets to a new sitter, let Kristin’s own fur babies be the proof of her deep love and understanding of animals. Their easygoing, respectful, and welcoming demeanor reflects the care and compassion they receive daily. Thanks to Kristin, I was able to fully relax and be present while celebrating the birth of my nephew—something I never thought possible with my usual separation anxiety (haha!). I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Rocky enjoyed his stay with Haley, I highly recommend leaving your pet with her!!! She was very good responding back to my messages and also sending me updates/pictures of my boy while we were away. 🙂✨”
“I want to express my sincere gratitude to Maxine, the incredible pet sitter at your facility, for taking such amazing care of my fur baby, Charlie. Maxine went above and beyond, providing exceptional care and great updates throughout Charlie’s stay. I highly recommend Maxine to any pet owner seeking top-notch care. Thank you, Maxine, for your love and dedication!”
“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! 🐾”
“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 AWESOME! My dog Periwinkle loved staying with her and didn't want to leave. Her beagle Max was such a beautiful and fun-loving companion for my beagle, making her feel right at home. Hermun was so flexible and kind. She sent me happy pictures throughout Periwinkle's stay, making me feel like I made the best choice in picking her. I would highly recommend Hermun as dog sitter. She made the weekend wonderful. 5 stars! No...make that 10 stars!”
“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!!”
“Kory did an awesome job sitting our 2 dogs for the day. He even sent a photo and made sure they were prepped for pick up. We are excited to book with him again soon!”
“Chante was great with my dog. She was very attentive and communicative. My dog was very well taken care of and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Cynthia and her family were AMAZING! She sent lots of pics and videos to keep me updated during my dog’s stay and made sure he was a happy camper all weekend long :) will absolutely be rebooking with her and would recommend to everyone!”
“Lynne and her husband were amazing with our boy Max! They were attentive to his health condition and helped administer his medication with no issues. I was kept updated often with pictures and messages. They were very responsive and took excellent care of our pup! He seemed to love his time there as well and made himself right at home. We look forward to using Lynne as a dependable sitterr in the future! Thanks again!”
“Jessica and her lovely family took such amazing care of Marley! They have a very clean home in a nice friendly neighborhood, and treated Marley as if she was their own. I got daily updates and photos, and Marley always seemed to be having a blast and getting spoiled. There is no doubt I would 100% have Jessica take care of Marley again. Fantastic experience.”
“Our girl Lisa had a great time with Trevor. We had a meet and greet and the place was very clean. He's a great sitter. Trevor sent us frequent updates with pictures Lisa having a fun time, which put us at ease during our trip. He took very good care of Lisa and we'll definitely book him again next time”
“Marcus is great with Ziva, my Belgian Malinois. He is very accommodating and I can tell she enjoys her stay! He sends updates and is always available to let me know how she is doing or answer questions. He is our go to local sitter after moving here this year. I am very careful who I leave with her with- her last sitter was our go to for 5 years before we moved to Tampa. I am glad we found him!”
“My dog was so happy when I picked him up from Debra’s. He had been playing with her dog Suzette outside in the backyard when I arrived. I could tell he was very well taken care of. Brutus really liked Debra and her son Reese. They are a good team working together to keep the dog happy and exercised. Brutus will definitely be back.”
“Nicole was great! She sent me pics during the time we were gone and I could see how happy my pup was. Her space was perfect. Will definitely book again in the future.”
“Seaura was absolutely the best dog sitter we could’ve asked for. We were incredibly nervous dropping our baby boy off to go over seas but we did a meet and greet and her and her family were the sweetest people. Her son absolutely loved Bowser and I knew bowser would enjoy playing with him. I lost my passport so got stuck overseas an additional day and then our flight was canceled so we were stuck for a second additional day. She was so understanding and assured me that I shouldn’t worry about Bowser and that they would be happy to help out. This took so much stress off our shoulders as she was sending pictures and videos of Bowser having tons of fun playing. He truly looked so happy. Thank you so much for being a life saver!!!”

“Emma is kind, understanding, great with cats and a quick responder! She was my first ever sitter for my cats, and i will definitely be using her again! Wish i could rate more than 5 stars ??”
“Great, thoughtful service! Thanks for taking care of my cats and home while I'm away, from dragging heavy, sometimes wet boxes in to keeping things tidy and providing love to my pets. I appreciate everything you do!”
“Tina is awesome! My cat loved her and she sent me pics of him and updates while I was gone which gave me peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter and would rebook if I leave town again. 😊”
About: Throughout my entire life I’ve taken care of all types of animals big and small, from neighbors Great Danes to family rabbits, I’m able to handle animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to meeting your pet no matter the animal! ♡ I do work part time at Outback Steakhouse and also do pet care to help pay for all of my bills due to this I’m more busy on the weekends and tend to struggle booking around then but I will do my best to accommodate and be flexible for your fur and furless babies!!! In the past I have had animals that were both inside and outside as well as animals who were muzzle, and crate trained meaning I have experience handling both as well as experience walking a variety of dogs. Currently I live with my cat Nugget who I handle all daily care for!
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for cats and currently share my home with three of my own, each with a completely different personality. I understand that cats often need patience, consistency, and care on their own terms. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, refreshing water, litter box care, playtime, and giving medication when clear instructions are provided. Whether your cat is outgoing and affectionate or shy and prefers to keep their distance, I’ll respect their boundaries and make sure they feel safe and cared for in their own home.
“Cynthia was easy to coordinate with and really helped me out by watching my cat(Mr. Stitches) given a short notice. She sent me daily photo updates where in Mr. Stitches looked very much at ease. I would trust Cynthia again and recommend her as a pet sitter for anyone in the Tampa Bay Area.”
“Keyla took great care of our dog Charlie while we went out for an appointment. She is very friendly and we would trust her to watch our dog again! She even sent pictures so we could check in on how Charlie was doing since it was our first time leaving him.”
“I felt at compete ease with Samantha watching my cat. She was prompt and kept me notified. And my cat that is very shy but did warm up to her. I would highly recommend her care.”
“Jordan did a great job with our kitties! We were nervous about going away for first time but they were both happy when we got back and well taken care of. Thank you Jordan! We hope to book again!”
“Marisa is the absolute best. I’ve never been happier with a sitter. She is so good with my very anxious dog who takes awhile to warm up and my kitties all love her too! She went above and beyond. Even accepted a last minute drop in request because our flight was delayed. Highly recommend! I hope she’s available every time I need a sitter. Thanks SO much, Marisa!!”
“In short, hire Beth to watch your fur babies! We have a picky cat who does not like to be alone at night, so Beth took her into her home for a week while we were out of town. She sent photos daily and really bonded with her. Her home is super clean and tidy and I could tell that she cared for our girl as if she was her own. Personally, I worry about everything but did not have one moment of worry for our cat while we were away. Beth stuck to the cat's normal schedule and let her go out on the balcony for a bit during the day when it was not too hot. Beth was professional from the first moment I messaged her and was kind enough to come to our home and do a meet and greet. We will have her watch our cat and also our dog again in the future.”

“How did we know our princess was in good hands? When she literally ran up the steps to see her new BFF Penny. Can't forget to mention Amanda and Matthew are amazing. It's nice to know we can leave our girl and know she will be loved and cared for.”

About: Hi! I’m Jade, and I offer personalized, pet care from my home. I live with my husband, teenage son, our dog Zoey, and three cats, so your pet gets plenty of attention while still enjoying a relaxed, home-style environment. I’m home throughout the day, which means pets staying with me get lots of companionship and aren’t routinely left alone for long periods. I also keep my bookings limited so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention, walks, playtime, downtime, and lots of photo updates while they’re with me. For boarding and daycare, I’m best suited for dogs who are comfortable around other pets and can settle into a home environment. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, and I love learning what helps them feel most comfortable and at home. Whether your dog wants to play, go for walks, lounge nearby, or curl up for a nap, I’m happy to follow their lead and keep their stay as familiar and stress-free as possible. I also offer dog walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, medications, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give your pet safe, loving, dependable care and give you peace of mind knowing they’re being treated like one of our own. I’m home throughout most of the day, so I have plenty of flexibility to give pets lots of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and company. My schedule is generally very flexible, but I do appreciate a heads-up for drop-offs, pick-ups, and visit times so I can plan around errands, appointments, and other bookings. Good communication helps everything run smoothly and makes transitions easier for everyone! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family while still following the routines and boundaries they’re used to at home. I keep bookings limited so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention and keep a close eye on how everyone is getting along. Dogs get regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of downtime. I supervise interactions with my own pets and make sure everyone has space to relax when they need it. Feeding, medications, crate routines, and other care instructions are followed based on each pet’s normal schedule. For drop-ins and walks, I’m respectful of your home and follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, medications, litter box care, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while you’re away. Most importantly, I pay attention to each pet’s comfort level and personality rather than expecting every animal to interact or behave the same way.
“My boys had such a blast while they were there, I could tell they were tired when I picked them up, and they were already trying to go back in when we were leaving!! It’s always so hard to find a sitter who sends you thoughtful updates and cute pictures, but I am so happy with how their visit went. Thank you so much to Qian and her family for taking care of our babies!!”

She gave me all kinds of feedback on the dogs and it looks like they got PLENTY of exercise... the pictures and videos were great! My dogs are going back to her this evening and through the weekend and I'm very they will be with someone that I trust and know she will take care of my pups.”

About: Since childhood I have always been the one tasked with taking care of the family pets and then the neighborhood pets. I am an attentive walker and can't wait to sit your pets!

“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!”
“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.”

“Sophia was amazing with my dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. If I ever need to hire another dog walker again she’s the first person I’m asking.”
“Tina has been great with our nervous pittie :) she has great communication and always leave a detailed report card after the walks. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Julia is the BEST! Cara was in great hands. She just loved Julia and it felt good to know my fur baby was being taken care of, while I was at work. Also, Julia does a great job of sending updates and photos!”

About: I’m a dependable, caring, and trustworthy pet lover who understands that your pets are family. I’m patient, attentive, and love giving pets plenty of affection, playtime, walks, and companionship. I currently own a cleaning business, so I am available several times throughout the day as they make my own schedule. I will always make time to take care of your dogs and cats. I will always follow your direction in caring for your fur babies. I do always have extra items on me and follow all leash laws and neighborhood guidelines.
About: Although I work with humans in the medical field, helping animals has always been another passion of mine. Growing up I was the go to dog sitter for family and friends. Over the past 2 years I have become heavily involved at a local rescue. This has given me experience caring for all kinds of dogs (and cats!). Fostering animals in my home has taught me how to care for dogs of all ages and temperaments. I’ve also had to perform medicated baths and administer medications to dogs and cats. One day, I hope to open my own dog rescue ! My husband has been a dog sitter on Rover for about a year, so now we are joining forces to give dogs the most attention and care while their parents are gone. I work 3 days a week in the hospital. My fiancé works from home. Between the two of us, we are available to your pet almost any day/time. We have two, big pups who love small/medium dog friends! If we have a foster dog in the house or you have a large dog, we would prefer to dog sit at your home. We would make sure the dog obeys all rules of the house….but if they’re allowed in bed at night that’s where they’ll be !
“Chris stepped in and really helped me out. He's is excellent with dogs! My Willie really liked him. I highly recommend him. I will use him again when the need arises. Very prompt and professional.”
“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.”
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.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. Many people I know, don’t fail to notice how caring, gentle, and playful I am with not only pets but with everyone else as-well. I have experienced dogs who are old, anxious, energetic, weak, shy, lovey, and everything in between. Since I was two, I would take care of my childhood dog as if he were my own baby. I’m currently attending college classes and as of right now have extra time to make money and try new things! I am available everyday except Tuesdays or Thursdays! I live in a gated apartment, that has a walking trail within. There is lots of greenery and sometimes other dogs around. I also live 8 minutes away from a dog park where I spend lots of my time walking or running. As far as being in your home, I will abide by the rules and follow what I am being told, in terms for what is best for the dog and everyone else. I will also make the experience fun and your pet will be in great hands.
About: Hi! I’m Nikki. I’ve lived with dogs of all sizes my whole life and have been providing pet care for several years. I’m a true dog enthusiast who also studies canine behavior and training—so I don’t just “watch” dogs, I focus on keeping them safe, relaxed, and set up for success while they’re with me. I’m experienced with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I’m comfortable supporting basic manners and routine-based training during a stay (sit, down, leash manners, calm greetings, etc.). I’m also very familiar with crate training and can help keep your dog’s home routine consistent—whether they’re crated at night, have structured rest breaks, or need extra support settling in a new environment. My goal is simple: your dog feels secure, enriched, and cared for—and you feel confident they’re in good hands. Pet care is a consistent part of my weekly routine. I’m home most of the day and plan my schedule around feeding, potty breaks, walks, and supervised outdoor time. I’m able to accommodate most drop-off/pick-up times with a little notice, and I keep dogs on a structured daily routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced front and back yard for safe outdoor time, and dogs are always supervised and brought inside as needed (weather, energy level, or comfort). My home is structured and calm. I can offer private time and separation at any point, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routines and boundaries. Dogs can sleep crated, in a safe room, or in another arrangement you prefer. I also have two stable, friendly medium-sized dogs. If your dog enjoys social time, we can do carefully managed introductions and supervised play. If your dog prefers space—or does best as a solo guest—I can absolutely accommodate that too. I’m attentive to body language, stress signals, and anxiety, and I aim to make your dog’s stay peaceful and predictable.
About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.

“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! 🐾”

I was kept updated often with pictures and messages. They were very responsive and took excellent care of our pup! He seemed to love his time there as well and made himself right at home. We look forward to using Lynne as a dependable sitterr in the future! Thanks again!”

I got daily updates and photos, and Marley always seemed to be having a blast and getting spoiled. There is no doubt I would 100% have Jessica take care of Marley again. Fantastic experience.”
“Our girl Lisa had a great time with Trevor. We had a meet and greet and the place was very clean. He's a great sitter. Trevor sent us frequent updates with pictures Lisa having a fun time, which put us at ease during our trip. He took very good care of Lisa and we'll definitely book him again next time”
“Marcus is great with Ziva, my Belgian Malinois. He is very accommodating and I can tell she enjoys her stay! He sends updates and is always available to let me know how she is doing or answer questions. He is our go to local sitter after moving here this year. I am very careful who I leave with her with- her last sitter was our go to for 5 years before we moved to Tampa. I am glad we found him!”
“My dog was so happy when I picked him up from Debra’s. He had been playing with her dog Suzette outside in the backyard when I arrived. I could tell he was very well taken care of. Brutus really liked Debra and her son Reese. They are a good team working together to keep the dog happy and exercised. Brutus will definitely be back.”
“Seaura was absolutely the best dog sitter we could’ve asked for. We were incredibly nervous dropping our baby boy off to go over seas but we did a meet and greet and her and her family were the sweetest people. Her son absolutely loved Bowser and I knew bowser would enjoy playing with him. I lost my passport so got stuck overseas an additional day and then our flight was canceled so we were stuck for a second additional day. She was so understanding and assured me that I shouldn’t worry about Bowser and that they would be happy to help out. This took so much stress off our shoulders as she was sending pictures and videos of Bowser having tons of fun playing. He truly looked so happy. Thank you so much for being a life saver!!!”

“Laura was absolutely wonderful with Hank! She was so kind and patient and loving with him! She gave us daily updates with pictures and he always looked so happy! We would give 10 stars if we could. I would recommend everyone to entrust their furbabies to Laura!”
“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!”
“I would definitely have Jariah watch Belle again! She was super flexible, kept me updated throughout the stay, and Belle seemed so relaxed and happy when I picked her up. You could tell she was well cared for and had a great time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
