About: Hi! I'm Emory - I grew up with Golden Retrievers my entire life, and in my adult years I’ve rescued three mixed-breed dogs from the shelter ranging from staffy's, dachshunds, and chihuahua's. I live with my boyfriend Quinn who also grew up with dogs, and together we have rescued a dog of our own, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of our lives. After our own dog passed away a couple of months ago, we decided to hold off on getting one of our own right away and to help take care of other dogs instead. We have pet-sit for our friends and family for years, and also used Rover as a customer for our previous dog so I understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your pet and to provide lots of updates! During the week, I work a hybrid schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention and companionship. On my work from home days, I’m home all day for walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Even on the days I go into the office, I’m only about 15 minutes away. I typically leave around 8am, come home during my lunch break from 12–1pm, and Quinn is home by 4pm, so dogs are never left alone for more than 4 hours at a time. They’ll get a walk before work, another walk and playtime during lunch, and plenty of walks, love, and attention in the evenings! Our home is very dog-friendly! Dogs are welcome on the furniture, get plenty of affection, and are treated like part of the family while they’re with us. Because I have rescued dogs from the shelter, we also have experience working with dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I know every dog has a different personality and comfort level, so will do our best to make them feel safe and loved.
“Viviana was great with Milo! They had a routine down and she treated him like her own. Milo sometimes won’t eat in new places and she did her best to get him to eat. She even used some wet food she had, which was really appreciated. Will definitely book again with Viviana when we need it!”
“Robert & Marisa were absolutely the best sitters Lillybelle’s had. We were out of the country on vacation for twelve days. This was the longest we’ve had a sitter for her, and I was nervous about leaving her with someone that long. They arranged a meet and greet so Lillybelle could check it out and meet their sweet dog, Goldie. Marisa was very kind, reassuring, and answered all my fur baby mom questions. During our trip, “Mr. Bob”, sent messages and photos of her living her best “vacation” life. I really appreciated it, and it helped me feel at ease. I truly felt he cared for her like is own. When our flight home was delayed, he was very understanding and even offered to keep her another night if it would make it easier on us although it wasn’t needed. I highly recommend this sitter, and we will use them again. Lillybelle loved her time with Mr. Bob.”
“This was my first time using rover and let me tell you: I had a very positive experience 🫶 Both Josh and his wife watched Bruno for a week and treated Bruno like part of their family. Initially, I was worried about leaving Bruno with another family but on day one after getting updates and photos, I knew he was in the right hands. Bruno even seemed a little sad to be leaving his new friends 🥺 They communicated with me all week and most days I got photos and videos🤍 I truly appreciated them giving Bruno all the love and attention he normally receives at home with us. Bruno was even allowed to sleep with them and hang out on the couch! And I know he loved their backyard and their dog. Thank you thank you to them for keeping my Bruno safe and loved! 🤞🤍 Would book again and would recommend to anyone! 🫂”
“We first did a meet and greet with Rachel and her dog, Zeplin. The dogs were just fine together. I would definitley board again with Rachel. She was communicative and sent pictures of my dog doing just fine every day. She even worked with me on my pick up schedule since my flight was late getting back into town. Very nice!!”
“Autumn was fantastic with Hadley. She kept me updated with how she was doing and it looked like my baby was having a good time playing with her dog. I will definitely call on Autumn again when the need arises.”
“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.”

“Naomi is a hard-working, communicative professional that I would absolutely recommend to any of my friends or family to care for their pets. I was badly injured at the start of the year and needed help cleaning my two guinea pigs' enclosure, a unique request for an app that centers around dogs and cats. She wasn't phased at all by shaking out their mats, sweeping, and starting laundry, and she often left the area far cleaner than I did when I was previously doing the work myself. She put a lot of care into looking after my animals and went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable. She was so wonderful, I asked her to continue coming twice a week even when I recovered from my injuries. I only wish I could bring her with me to the new city I'm moving to. Thank you Naomi!”
“Cary is the best! She is so attentive to Dot, and clearly has a deep love for all animals. She was very flexible with my changing plans, communication was quick and easy. Cant recommend her enough!”
“Mariah is very dependable and her communication is excellent! We only needed our cats checked on, but she made sure to stay there the full 30 minutes, which is so appreciated! And we loved seeing the pictures of our kitty! Highly recommend!”
“Excellent communication, very punctual, and did extremely well with our dogs. Evgenia is very easy to work with, and works around what you need and did so on extremely short notice. She did a great job !”
“Valerie was amazing. Her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, and she instantly made both me and my cats feel comfortable and safe. You can tell she genuinely cares. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive. 🐾”
About: I have had 3 cats throughout my life, both indoor and outdoor, and I do everything I can to make sure they are happy. I am no stranger to cleaning litter boxes and applying medications, and my close friends trust me to watch their cats when they are out of town. I treat every cat as if it were my own, so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
“She took great care of my two cats while I was away! She was always on time, came twice a day as scheduled, and was super communicative throughout the whole stay. One of my cats was recovering from a wound and needed multiple medications, and she did a great job making sure she her medicine and kept her cone on. I really appreciated how reliable she was and would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my whole life, and even created a cat café business plan in school—because cats aren’t just pets to me, they’re a passion. I provide loving, reliable care that keeps your kitty happy and stress-free.
“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!”
“Cheyanne took excellent care of my cat Kiki while I was away! She wrote a summary and took pictures throughout each visit and it was so nice to see what Kiki was up to. She looked very happy and clearly really liked Cheyanne! Cheyanne gave her a lot of attention, brushing her and allowing her to make biscuits in her lap. Cheyanne also notified me right away when my fridge stopped working and helped me by checking the electric panel (going above and beyond pet sitting!). I will definitely book Cheyanne again next time I go out of town!”
“Blair home sat Lacey and followed our care instructions, which are a complex because of what and how we feed her. The house was also tidy. Blair communicates well and has a pleasant manor and kind demeanor. We'd would have liked daily pictures but still recommend Blair wholeheartedly.”
“Cynthia was great! I was stressed trying to book someone last minute to check in on my cats over Thanksgiving and she responded right away. Very responsive and sent me lots of videos and photos during her visits! Very satisfied with this experience.”
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for cats, from shy rescues to playful kittens, I take the time to understand each cat’s personality and make them feel safe and cared for. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and keep things tidy (yes, that includes a spotless litter box!). I’m also experienced with feeding routines, giving oral medication, and keeping cats comfortable while their owners are away. You can count on me to treat your cat like my own.
“Ambria did a great job taking care of our cat Blanca! Blanca needs some additional care that includes medications and Ambria kept us updated on her status and made sure she got the care she needs while we were away.”
“Oh my gosh Jenna was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my cat Tiki, my cat was going through a medical situation throughout the time Jenna was watching her and she handled it so well and I came back from vacation to a much healthier cat! I’m so impressed by her communication and tender care towards my cat. I will hire her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anybody!”
“Sara was prompt to respond to my request, she was incredibly easy to work with and helpful to meet all my pet’s needs. My pets loved her as well! Will definitely be contacting her again!”

“Evgenia was a great sitter! She played with my puppy outside a lot and took him on a couple of walks. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent pictures!”
“Very thankful for Matt...he took my baby last minute as we were traveling & wanted to attend somewhere that wasn't dog friendly. He sent pics & updated how my dog was doing & my baby was happy when we picked him back up. 5 started from us & thankful. Recommend!”
“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!”
“Danielle is one of the best I've found on Rover! She was very communicative and so great with my Theo. She sent me tons of pictures and several updates throughout the day which made me feel so much more comfortable. I would definitely bring Theo over to stay with her whenever I am in Tampa again! <3”
About: I bring 18 years of hands-on experience caring for four family dogs, and I currently care for my own Yorkie, so I truly understand the attention, patience, and love pets need at every stage of life. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like my own—tuning into their routines, personalities, and little quirks to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I work from home and already spend my day caring for my own dog. I’m able to give plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. Evenings are typically spent at home, and if I do step out, it’s only briefly for the gym or dinner. Your pet will have a calm, consistent environment with lots of attention, care, and supervision, just like they would if they were my own. I provide a safe, trusting, and welcoming environment for every pet. My home features a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor play, and my small Yorkie is happy to offer companionship. Pets are free to roam the house and can relax on the furniture—but if you prefer boundaries, I’m happy to accommodate your rules so your furry friend feels comfortable and at home.
About: I have been a pet owner for 30 years and volunteered at pet care facilities, as well. I’ve pet sat for neighbors and friends giving special attention to their dogs and cats . I can accommodate an open schedule and all hours for care. Mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Can make multiple visits for same pet in a daily schedule as needed. I will make sure all pets are watered and fed given your instruction and any medications. Will play inside and walk outside for fresh air retreats and potty visits.
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!
“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!”
“Sam was an awesome host for our girl Gypsy! He had other dogs for her to run around and play with, toys and spoiled her with some treats! He was sending us pictures throughout the day as well! Will definitely use Sam again when we are in Tampa! Thanks so much!”
“Virginia is hands down the best dog sitter ever! My pup Kiwi absolutely adored her—he was more excited to see her in the morning than me in the afternoon! 🐶 She sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the day, which made me feel so at ease. Kiwi also became best friends with her sweet dog, Cozy, and it was the cutest thing watching them play together in the videos she sent. It was clear she treated Kiwi like her own, with so much love and care. I would 100% trust her again and will definitely be coming back to her. Highly recommend!😊”
“This was the first time leaving our puppy with someone. Bailey was excited to see us upon pickup but didn’t want to leave. She had so much fun with Emilija. We will definitely book again. Thank you”
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.
About: I have always had a love for animals. Growing up with many pets and working at a doggy daycare and animal hospital, I have experience with all kinds of breeds, big and small. I work a 9-5 Monday through Thursday and work from home on Fridays. I always take a walk before or after work and would love to be joined by a furry friend. I always make sure pets go outside at least four times a day and allow an hour a day for playtime/walks. I make sure to feed pets morning and night or follow special instructions left by the owner.
About: Have had a dog since birth. Living alone without any current pets in home, I’m ready to give pet owners furry friends the best vacation while you are away from home. I work from home Mondays and Fridays and am home most all weekends. Lots of nice trails and areas to play with pets nearby my home. Can provide text updates, photos, and have an amazing girlfriend who will also give your pet the best care that you could ask for while you are away from home.
About: Hi everyone! New to Rover after pet sitting from word of mouth and referrals back in North Carolina. I am flexible with pricing to start generating some bookings and reviews in FL! I have been pet sitting for over 10 years with all types of dogs. I have experience fostering dogs of all breeds and sizes, most which come from bad situations and need help with their confidence and training, so I am able to help potty train and work through other issues. I have one small dog, Nemo. Care would be private (only your dog and Nemo) safety is my first priority, and they will be watched at all times! My avalibility is set only for days that I will be able to be home 24/7. If other days are needed and your dog is good to be by themselves for any certain time, message me and I will be more available !! I work from home Monday and Friday and reserve my weekends for spending time with my pup. My dog Nemo has separation anxiety so I am normally home with him all day, or bring the dogs with me to a local restaurant or park to get outside and be active. This will be a private service, only Nemo and your dog. I am very attentive and will be able to send lots of pictures to you!

“Jolie was FABULOUS! I was super nervous leaving my sweet Daisy when going on a week trip, but Jolie made the trip stress free and easy for this anxious dog mama. She sent lots of pictures and took Daisy on plenty of fun walks while I was away and treated her like her very own. Daisy and I will definitely be using her services again and we would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend her. Thank you so much 🩷”

“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.”
“I highly recommend Turner as a dog walker! He was punctual, friendly, and polite. During the 30-minute walk, my dog got plenty of exercise and had a chance to potty. Whiskey came back happy and calm. I would definitely use Turner again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.”

Could not ask for a better experience and if you need someone to watch out for your pets, Cynthia should be top of your list!”
About: I've had my own dog for 11 years now, before that I grew up with a family chocolate lab. I've always had dogs in my life and my sister is a vet so I've experienced a lot and learned a lot. I would never let a dog get hurt! I treat dogs like humans :) I know what to do in many different situations because I've had experience with dogs my entire life, big and small. My boyfriend and I have watched a dog overnight for 2 weeks before. Our dog, Piper is nice and relaxed and gets along well with others. She loves having a friend around like she did when I was in college living with my roommate who had a Maltese. Day to day: I wake up at 7, walk my dog, then feed her. We hang out, I might go run some errands and puppy proof the apartment before I leave. I'll come back and let her out again. At night I let her out once after I feed her at 7, so about 8:30, then once more before I go to bed. I play with my dog a lot and she likes to snuggle. I would do all these things for your dog and anything else you request! My schedule is flexible, so I can fit walks into your dog’s routine with ease. I’m based in South Tampa and happy to travel up to 45 minutes. I keep my bookings consistent and reliable, and I’ll always show up on time and ready to give your pup a great walk. Since I offer dog walking, I come to you and care for your dog in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions on leashing, routes, and routine exactly. Safety is my top priority: I keep your dog leashed, avoid hazards, stay alert to their body language, and never put them in a situation that feels off. My sister is a vet, so I know how to spot when something is wrong.
“Mariah was amazing with the pups. She was very communicative, and also early both days. We appreciated her taking care of the pups both days! The pups are exhausted! Thanks again!”
“Elena made herself available on such short notice when I was not able to secure any walkers. Mira had such a great time with her and really appreciated her flexibility!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since i was 8 years old. Watching family and neighborhood dogs has always been one of my favorite things to do! I currently work part-time so dog watching and walking fits perfect into my schedule. I tend to only work about 5-6 hour shifts so i’m never gone for a longer period of time than that. I have three fur babies at home to keep your baby company as well as a huge backyard that they can run around it as well
“Serena was amazing! She is great at communicating (she responded to my changes and details quickly) and rebel loves her. It is so nice to have someone I can trust when I am unavailable to be there for my dog. She was always on time even when I made changes to the location/details. I would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again in the future for Rebel. (: Thank you Serena!”

About: Hi! I'm Emory - I grew up with Golden Retrievers my entire life, and in my adult years I’ve rescued three mixed-breed dogs from the shelter ranging from staffy's, dachshunds, and chihuahua's. I live with my boyfriend Quinn who also grew up with dogs, and together we have rescued a dog of our own, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of our lives. After our own dog passed away a couple of months ago, we decided to hold off on getting one of our own right away and to help take care of other dogs instead. We have pet-sit for our friends and family for years, and also used Rover as a customer for our previous dog so I understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your pet and to provide lots of updates! During the week, I work a hybrid schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention and companionship. On my work from home days, I’m home all day for walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Even on the days I go into the office, I’m only about 15 minutes away. I typically leave around 8am, come home during my lunch break from 12–1pm, and Quinn is home by 4pm, so dogs are never left alone for more than 4 hours at a time. They’ll get a walk before work, another walk and playtime during lunch, and plenty of walks, love, and attention in the evenings! Our home is very dog-friendly! Dogs are welcome on the furniture, get plenty of affection, and are treated like part of the family while they’re with us. Because I have rescued dogs from the shelter, we also have experience working with dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I know every dog has a different personality and comfort level, so will do our best to make them feel safe and loved.
“Viviana was great with Milo! They had a routine down and she treated him like her own. Milo sometimes won’t eat in new places and she did her best to get him to eat. She even used some wet food she had, which was really appreciated. Will definitely book again with Viviana when we need it!”

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.”
“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.”
“The best sitter in Tampa! Percy loves going to stay and loves all the sweet dogs he gets to play with. He always comes back happy and tired, a sign of a great time :)”
About: I’m an experienced dog sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away! I have experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs up to 65 pounds and understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. I grew up with Boxers my whole life so dogs with crazy and loving energy is where I thrive but also love and enjoy our calm pups too! I provide plenty of exercise through walks, playtime, and interactive activities to keep dogs happy and engaged. I also enjoy giving them lots of attention, affection, and cuddles so they feel right at home. Your dog's routine is important to me, so I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water available, and receive frequent bathroom breaks throughout the day. Whether your dog loves to play, relax, or just have a companion nearby, I will provide attentive, reliable care and treat them like part of my family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands while you're away! I am currently working full-time during the week but get home at about 4:30p every day. I work from home every Friday and I am home most weekends so weekend sitting is where I will be most available! My schedule is flexible though so for longer needs, I can work around it with enough notice given. I have a fenced in yard and my sister who lives with me who also loves dogs very much. When in my home, I want the dogs I am watching to feel comfortable and wherever I am, they are welcome! I have a very open layout on the first floor with easy access to the back yard. The upstairs is very open as well with big windows and 3 bedrooms. As for caring in clients homes, I am very respectful and want the dogs to feel safe in their space with me there. I offer to wash them if needed, walk them, feed them, and take them to the dog park as well if allowed!
“Grace was a wonderful sitter for our boy, Gumbo! She kept us updated every day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Gumbo clearly loved being around her and her family—he came home completely tuckered out and slept like he had clocked in for a full shift. We’re so grateful for how well she cared for him!”
“Michael was wonderful with our Sheltie! He sent updates and photos every day and we felt completely comfortable during our two weeks with him. He also has access to an amazing play space where she spent a lot of time outdoors. We will definitely book with Michael again!”
“Vadim is super accommodating and very nice! He sent many cute pictures and videos while we were traveling. He spent quality time with my puppy and made sure he had fun while staying at a different place. I highly recommend booking with Vadim.”
“Took great care of our spaniel!!! She provided regular updates, pictures and communication during our time away. We will definitely be using Lauren again!”
“Kala had a great time staying with Michele. She looked like she was right at home in the photo that was sent. Michele was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly.”
“If we could give more than five stars we would! The kindness, the authentic care and the warmth that was shown to our fur baby gave us so much comfort during a long stay with Thais. We needs more humans like her and her partner in the world 😊”
