“Kristin was excellent! Our long time dog sitter moved and I was nervous leaving my dogs with anyone else, but very quickly I knew they were in good hands. Constant updates and they had a great time staying for two weeks 😊 I would absolutely send them back if she would have them!”
“WOW! I cannot stress enough how happy we are that we found Cece. She was so sweet and kind and super communicative during Cash’s stay. Her two pups got along great with Cash, and he clearly had a blast during his stay with her. She was also very through when we arrived since it was his first stay with her and showed me the beautiful back yard Cash would have to play in during his stay and made sure he was secure and I was comfortable with him being in her home. It was such a great experience, I seriously cannot recommend Cece enough. Cash even came home with a personalized stocking, which he loved! You can tell she truly loves taking care of her clients pups!!”

About: As a YouTube writer for Chewy, I spent years immersed in the pet world—learning from veterinarians, trainers, behaviorists, and the animals themselves. That experience taught me how to notice the little things: body language, emotional signals, changes in behavior, and the unique routines that help each pet feel safe and comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs, puppies, senior pets, cats, and dog-reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medication. Most importantly, I know there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, quirks, routines, and preferences so they feel cared for and you feel 100% assured they’re being loved on while you’re away! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. I have a regular walking routine with my own dog, plus fully fenced front and backyards for safe outdoor time. I’m also available to make drop-in visits to homes in my area, while keeping pets’ routines, exercise needs, and individual personalities in mind. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fully fenced front and backyard, daily walks, and a calm routine alongside my own dog. I’ll follow your pet’s schedule, preferences, and comfort level so they feel at home. For care in your home, my TrustedHousesitters experience has taught me to be respectful, tidy, communicative, and mindful of your space. I’ll care for your pets and home as thoughtfully as I would my own.
“This was my first time leaving my cat with someone new, and I was really stressed. But she took great care of him, kept me updated with pictures, and made my last-minute trip so much easier. Thank you!!”
“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”
“We are so grateful for Tina and the exemplary care she provides our fur family. If you are looking for an excellent pet sitter, we highly recommend Tina.”
“Bekah is so great with my kitties. She sends so many pictures and updates, trims their nails, gets their daily playtime in, and cares for them as if they were her own. I love reading her daily messages because she gets their personalities down to a tee and I genuinely feel like I’m home with them.”
“What can I say, Jordan is by far the best pet sitter! My Olive can't wait to have her cat sit again. Jordan is very responsive, very prompt with timing, and never shorts on the time spent. I've never had so many photos of my Olive before, it felt like I was with Olive even from another country. I highly recommend Jordan's services!”
“I highly recommend Sophia! She has a great understanding of cats and was very loving and caring to our kitty. She is very professional and leaves great detailed reports of her visits. Five stars - would look forward to booking her again!”

“Aubrey was fantastic, she's a great communicator and so clearly loves animals! My kitties warmed up to her quickly and were very calm and happy when I returned home. Will definitely rebook!”
“I’m convinced our cat thinks she is on vacation when she gets to go to Beth’s house. This is the second time we have left our cat with Beth and she got to stay for 2 weeks while we were out of country. Our cat is an old girl set in her ways and loves being around people.. She hates sleeping alone at night. So she goes to sleep over at Beth’s house (with no other animals there on our request so it’s less stress on the cat). Beth sends me pics daily which I love and is also mindful to check what frequency we want pictures. Our cat gets all the love, snuggles, treats and time on the porch she could hope for! Beth is very helpful and communicative coordinating handing off the animal too. This time, because of our schedules, she came to our home to get the cat for us a day after we left. We’re big fans of Beth’s and highly recommend her for your pets. She watches doggos & probably other animals too!”
“Aliyah was so kind and attentive to my cats while i was out of the country for nearly 2 weeks. My cats are both seniors, one with slight medical issues and she made sure to give him extra special care which I appreciated so much. She provided great details and pictures on every visit and followed the care instructions perfectly. She even helped with my isopods/bugs care which she was not obligated to do but she was more than willing to help with. I will definitely use her again in the future and would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter.”
“Samantha took great care of Sheba. Was on time and provided details of what was going on. She was even able to extend the time I needed her on a last minute notice. I will definitely use her to take care of Sheba and would highly recommend her to others”
“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!”

“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 is a true animal lover and our pup is happy to see her. He’s always tired when he gets home so he seems to get plenty of play and exercise :)”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for 18 years, and I keep my Rover bookings intentionally small so every pet gets plenty of individual attention rather than feeling like one of many. I’m home throughout most of the day, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and a routine that can be adjusted to what each pet is used to at home. I’m especially patient with dogs who need extra time to settle into a new environment. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding schedules, crate routines, and other care instructions, and I send plenty of photo updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. For boarding and daycare, dogs should be comfortable sharing a home with my dog, Zoey, and our three cats. I also offer walks and drop-in visits for dogs and cats, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, walks, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to give each pet dependable, individualized care that feels as familiar and low-stress as possible—and give their parents peace of mind while they’re away. I'm home throughout most of the day, which gives me plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and companionship throughout your pet's stay. My schedule is generally flexible, and I'm happy to work with your pet's usual routine whenever possible. I just ask that drop-off, pick-up, and visit times are communicated in advance so I can plan accordingly and make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve. 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 my bookings limited so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention and closely monitor how they're settling in. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised potty breaks and outdoor time, and I supervise interactions between guest dogs and my own pets. Everyone has space to separate, relax, and decompress when needed, and I never expect animals to interact simply because they're sharing the same home. I follow each pet's normal feeding schedule, crate routine, walking routine, and other care instructions as closely as possible. I also pay close attention to behavior and comfort level so I can adjust their environment if they seem overwhelmed or need more space. For walks and drop-in visits, I'm respectful of your home and follow your pet's usual routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, walks, playtime, and companionship. My priority is keeping pets safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that works for them, rather than expecting every animal to fit the same routine.
“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!”
“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!!”
“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.”
About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting since 2015, it started out looking after my neighbor’s 2 dogs and before i knew it, the good word spread around in my neighborhood and i became the local pet sitter, everything grew after that. Not to mention i have been around dogs my whole life, my mom had 3 growing up. i realized that although im able to make money from this, it doesn't feel like a job to me at all because i absolutely love animals and i feel good taking care of them. i can say that i have found my passion in the process. i provide 5 star service and keep great communication with the owners. i am very trustworthy, and have many references to support my claims which are available upon request. i love what i do and if you allow me the opportunity to show you, i will provide great value to you and your pet’s needs. i am able to fulfill custom requests as well. anything else you would like to know just ask me, i am very transparent and personable. Thank you for the opportunity! God bless. i left my former job in 2019 to become a full time pet caretaker. my schedule is flexible, and i will most likely be able to meet your availability needs. i have set up my home to be a very safe and pet-friendly environment, they have space to roam around inside and outdoor availability as well. There is also a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. i am very respectful when entering other people’s homes and i view it as a privilege that they trust me in their home. i mind my own business and only do what the owner asks of me. i treat other’s homes as i would want mine to be treated.
“Matt made me feel completely at ease from the start. Luna was well cared for, and I could tell she was comfortable and happy. Communication was great, and I truly appreciate the peace of mind. I’m looking forward to booking with him regularly!”
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.
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.

“Natali & KJ were AWESOME! This was my first time using a service like this for daycare, and I couldn’t be happier. My dog is reactive and requires a special touch, which he received, better than I could have expected. The updates and pictures throughout the day plus “report card” after were so appreciated. I will absolutely rebook. Thank you!”

“Johnny is the best! He treats our dogs like his own and is communicative, trustworthy, and kind. He is a pleasure to work with. We are so glad we found him to do drop ins for us, and cannot recommend him enough!”
About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm only out of the house for 6 hours at most. My old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Private back lawn. I have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. I had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.

About: My husband and I had a German shepherd for 13 years that we recently said goodbye to and have taken care of dogs/cats of all ages for friends and family. Great with seniors and big dogs. My husband grew up with 5 dogs in his household of all different breeds. Can administer medication and help with training if needed! I work from home twice a week and my husband is fully remote so between the two of us we will be home with your pup all day to watch them closely and ensure they are never alone. We live in a small pet friendly apartment in a walkable and pet friendly neighborhood. We have dog toys, enrichment toys, and dogs beds in the home but please bring your own if your pet prefers! We took our dog everywhere with us and know all the pet-friendly areas should your dog prefer spending most of their time outdoors.

“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.”
“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.”
“Celine has walked our golden doodle a few times now and she has been extremely kind and accommodating. She is always flexible if plans have changed and our doodle loves her! Will continue to use her for walks ☺️”
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 Geilynn. I bring six years of experience as a Rover sitter, along with a lifetime of caring for both cats and dogs. I grew up with two dogs and adopted my cat, Mila, when she was just six weeks old, giving me firsthand experience with young pets and their unique needs. I’m comfortable caring for kittens, puppies, senior pets, and animals with shy, anxious, or high-energy personalities. I can follow detailed feeding routines, clean litter boxes, administer basic medication, and provide walks, playtime, affection, or quiet companionship based on each pet’s preferences. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable and attentive. I’ll treat your pets like family, respect their routines, and send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax while you’re away. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits around your pet’s usual routine. Whether your dog is ready for a fun walk or your cat is happiest enjoying playtime and cuddles at home, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of personalized attention. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter-box care, medication, and more, and I’ll work with you to create a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable, happy, and excited for our visits. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Dogs can enjoy walks, playtime, fresh water, meals, medication, and plenty of attention. Cats receive fresh food and water, litter-box care, medication, gentle playtime, and affection on their terms. During every visit, I’ll carefully check doors, windows, water bowls, and favorite hiding spots, then send you photos and updates for peace of mind. I’m also happy to bring in your mail and water your plants while you’re away, so you can return to happy pets and a well-cared-for home.
“Aubrey, thanks for being so sweet with Halo. We really appreciate that you give us from your time to take care of him last minute. Thanks for the communication and the professionalism. Hopefully Halo can see you again. God bless”
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life! I have taken care of and loved very old and very young animals. I am responsible, attentive, and patient. I am a hard working college student who has lots of availability and will always make sure your pets are fed, relieved, and loved. It is extremely important to me to keep your pets, myself, and your home safe. I am in college until 12:30pm Monday-Thursday, and I usually work evenings on the weekends. I am able to accept last minute booking requests most of the time! Safety is very important to me, please make me aware of any medications or health precautions. I want to be informed of any extra steps I should take to keep myself, your home, and your pet safe!
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.
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’ve had dogs my whole life and absolutely love caring for them! I’ve had the opportunity to care for and host dozens of dogs with all different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable with special diets, medications, different routines, and making sure each dog gets plenty of outside time, exercise, play, attention, and plenty of time to relax. I also have a 7-year-old Australian Shepherd who is playful, friendly, and loves having other dogs around. I'm used to making dogs feel comfortable and welcome in our home, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while they’re in my care. I work from home, so there is usually someone around throughout the day to give pets attention and care. I have a flexible routine that allows plenty of time for potty breaks, outside time, play, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. My home is generally quiet and relaxed. I'm able to give pets plenty of one-on-one attention while also making sure they have time to rest and feel comfortable. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside, play, explore, and get some fresh air. Since I work from home, there is usually someone around to keep an eye on things and give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I also have a sweet, friendly 7-year-old Australian Shepherd who loves having other dogs around and can be a great companion for them. I always take introductions at the dogs’ pace and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and relaxed in my home. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions their owner provides.

“I’m so grateful that Debra was able to take care of my pup while I went out of town for a few days!

Luna will definitely be back!”
