“Matt was amazing!! Took great care of our baby and was so flexible with us needing 2 extra days due to the hurricane that closed the airport. We highly recommend him for your next boarding experience and will definitely use him again?”
“We have used them quite a few times and our dogs always have a great time! I am provided with photos and details of what they do throughout the day. Would highly recommend!”
“Amazing sitter for Sparkles! She sent great updates and clearly gave lots of love and attention. When our flight got delayed, she happily extended the stay an extra day with zero hassle. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible pet sitter. Would book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Samuel was awesome! Theo had a wonderful stay in a lovely neighborhood! Samuel was extremely responsive, sent updates and pictures, and was flexible for our drop off and pick up times. We couldn’t ask for more and would highly recommend him to watch your fur babies! Very thankful to find such an excellent and professional home to host our furriest family member.”
“Nicole was incredible! This was the first time our Oakley would be away from home so we wanted to make sure we picked the right sitter. Nicole met us ahead of time for a quick meet and greet and Oakley loved her! She kept us up-to-date while we were gone and was so easy to communicate with. Highly recommend booking with Nicole!”
“Peaches loves staying with Aisha. She takes such good care of my baby. Tail is always wagging and tongue hanging out when I go pick her up! Aisha is caring and I trust her very much with my dog! Thank you!!”
“Rachel was everything you would hope for in a dog sitter!! She sent us a daily photo of our Murphy girl, was super responsive when we had questions and very flexible with pick up and drop off times! Murphy had so much fun staying at her house and we will definitely be reaching out to have Murphy stay again! We are so thankful to Rachel for taking great care of our girl, we were able to actually relax on vacation knowing Murphy was safe and happy.”
“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!!”
“Maxine was great with Owen. She would send picture updates and even has an app that allows you to check in on your pup via camera. Extremely convenient, flexible, and responsible. Highly recommend!”
“I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.”
“I felt so much anxiety leaving Maggie while on vacation but felt so much more at ease with Hermun!! she sent me pictures and videos everyday of her playing with her pup and I was able to enjoy my vacation. Thanks again Hermun!!!!”
“"She was absolutely amazing with my dog while I was traveling to Tampa. She is very caring, loving, and responsible. She kept me updated and made me feel completely comfortable the entire time. When I came back, my dog was happy and well taken care of. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!"”
“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.”
“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!”
“My pup loved her time with Virginia. My dog is very anxious and has separation anxiety to the max, but was calm and relaxed the whole time she was with Virginia. She sent daily photos letting me know my pup was well cared for and loved. Can't recommend Virginia enough.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Catherine far exceeded my expectations! She agreed to a meet and greet with my pup and me before boarding started, and I could immediately feel her warmth (and my pup felt comfortable too). Catherine kept me updated, sending me pictures daily. She was so kind and took such good care of my girl. I would 100% recommend Catherine for anyone who wants to leave their pup with a loving sitter! 🤍”
“Shannon did an amazing job! She sent so many pictures and videos of my dog to keep me updated throughout the weekend. She even let my dog tag along to a doggy bday party on the beach, which made me so happy. Shannon was super communicative an flexible and my dog came home a happy girl”
“Chavelly was a great dog sitter for Truman. She sent me videos and pictures each day. She has a very friendly dog, who Truman enjoyed having a friend to play with. She has a dog park on her property which is ideal for play time. I will board Truman with her again for sure!”
“Tucker had an amazing time while staying with Margarita and Carissa. We are pretty sure that he had as good vacation as we did. Their son was Tucker‘s best playmate. We would highly recommend Margarita and Clarissa for anyone in the area needing a safe and loving home for their pet. Thank you again for the love and care.❤️. Bonus, they have an amazing backyard!”

“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!!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Chloe is a very caring and kind petsitter. She came to the rescue on very short notice and brought a sense of calm and order in a difficult time for me. She went the extra mile who I will use her again for sure.”
“Daphne was fantastic and kept us up to date on our dog while we were gone! We even had a vase of flowers that somehow got spilt while we were gone and she cleaned all the water up without even saying anything to us. Thank you so much!!!”
“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’ve booked Rachel to watch my cats multiple times and she’s always been great! She leaves updates for every visit and when my cat needed to take oral medication, she was able to administer it without issue. Would highly recommend her to watch your pets!”
“Kelsey was so great! She is always quick to respond and is so sweet. My cat was so happy when I got home, I’m glad to know she had great company while I was away. I would recommend Kelsey to anyone!”
About: I have owned cats or been around them my entire life. I’ve always had a genuine love for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I take the time to build trust and provide care that fits their individual needs.
“Bryce did an amazing job taking care of my kitty! He stopped by to feed her and play with her, and she was the happiest baby ever!! I’ve never had a pet sitter spend this much quality time and care with my cat. Highly recommend. He also responds very quickly which is appreciated. 10/10”
“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!”
“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!”
“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”
“Virginia was absolutely wonderful with our cats Orange and Saja! She followed all the instructions carefully, and clearly genuinely cares about animals. Will definitely book again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old including my own! I have been trusted in feeding, walking, and doing whatever the owner needed! I am a marine biology major because of my love for animals so I know I will be a great person for the job! I am currently a student at the university of Tampa. I am free all day Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday. Also, I am free after 12 on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I would follow all the owner’s instructions and respect their home. I am able to crate easily if need and I am very good with high energy dogs!

“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!”
“So fortunate to have found Rachel. She has a cozy comfortable place for my two dogs. Her two cats and one dog are so sweet and friendly. I’d recommend her a hundred times.!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and gone through extensive dog training as well as being a foster mom for the Southeast Beagle Rescue. I currently have a beagle named Riley that I adopted through the Humane Society and was unfortunately one of the 4000 Envigo beagles that were rescued. He loves playing with other dogs and is very social. I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. I also have a two Dog maximum limit. About my home/services: I live in a cozy condo I own in South Tampa with a fenced in backyard. I am fine with dogs on the couch and bed. I have experience with older dogs, special needs animals and administering medication. Expect a lot of pictures and videos of your dog having fun! I require a meet and greet. This way you and your dog will be more comfortable when you leave them in my care since it will not be the first time we have met when you drop them off leading to less stress when you leave. Criteria: Activity level low to medium. Absolutely no puppies. No dogs that bark at everything (unless someone knocks at the door) or dogs with separation anxiety. We look forward to meeting you. 🐶 I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. Drop off and pick up times are from 8 AM to 9 PM. I have a fenced in backyard. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couch. Feel free to bring their bed or anything else that makes them comfortable. Whatever your rules are, they are the rules here so if they aren't allowed on furniture...no problem.
“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: Hello! I have over 5 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering baths, and pet boarding. I am passionate about providing pets with attentive, reliable care and ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my routine. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need to feel happy and comfortable. I currently live in a gated community with a dog park available. I will/ can provide transportation if need be, and 24 hour service for your pet!
“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!”
“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 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.
“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!”
“Hailey is wonderful and we felt completely secure with our dog Tilly in her care. Constant updates and communication along with a very relaxed pup when we picked her up. Will definitely book again!”
“Danni was amazing! Her dog was so calm, gentle, and great with Millie. She sent frequent updates and gave Millie all the attention she craves. She was patient and took Millie on several walks. We will be back! Thank you Danni!”
About: 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!
About: For the last 5 years, I co-managed a highly-rated Rover account and raised our family dogs for 7 years. Following a recent separation, I am starting fresh on my own profile. I deeply miss having dogs in my daily life, which means your pup gets 100% of my focus, a quiet home, and years of seasoned, professional pet-care experience! This fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home full-time, meaning I am always here to provide constant supervision, companionship, and a structured schedule. Because I work a standard desk job, having a guest dog in my home acts as a quiet, natural companion in the background of my workday. Having co-managed a high-volume Rover account for 5 years and being a dog owner myself for 7, I am incredibly accustomed to balancing professional desk work with regular potty breaks, structured play, and affection without any disruption to my focus. Your dog will never be left alone, and my schedule is perfectly set up to treat them like a VIP member of my household throughout the day. I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. I follow each owner’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. Pets are never left alone for extended periods, and I make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and regular bathroom breaks. I also provide updates with photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and at home during their stay.

“Shelby was awesome. He took such great care of my chihuahua while I was away, even though my pup can be… A LOT. He kept me in the loop the whole time with photos and updates, which made being away so much easier. You can tell he really cares and knows what he’s doing. Super reliable, super kind, and honestly just great to work with. Highly recommend Shelby to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and phenomenal with pets. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Addison is the best! So sweet and caring for my dog. Shes attentive, prompt, on time, and communicative. Would highly recommend Addison for your pet care needs :)”
“Brian was always on time and communicative! Our dog started showing signs of a stomach ache (which is not abnormal for her) but he let us know right away and kept us updated each time he saw her.”
About: I provide boutique, one-on-one pet care, hosting only one dog or one dog family at a time. Your pup gets my full attention in a calm, safe, and comfortable home environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and special needs, while giving them plenty of love and attention. While they’re here, they’re family. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of companionship and rarely be left alone. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular walks, and lots of affection throughout their stay. I host only one dog or one dog family at a time, providing a calm, controlled environment. I care for every pup as my own, with their safety and comfort always my priority.
About: I grew up in a house full of cats with my grandma, so loving animals has always just been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve volunteered at shelters and fostered rescue dogs and cats with all different kinds of backgrounds and personalities (which is how I found my cat) I’m very patient and comfortable with pets that have unique quirks or specific needs. Whether it’s giving an older animal space to warm up, following a strict routine, or handling tricky feedings, I make sure every pet is treated with the care and respect I’d want for mine. I am flexible and can accommodate your pet's specific needs. I am happy to work with you to create a personalized care plan that fits you and your pet's routine. I keep a very clean, tidy apartment and make sure anything a dog might chew or get into is tucked away. I have a friendly cat, and whenever a dog visits, I always do a slow, calm introduction. If I sense any tension or either pet seems unsure, I have a separate room ready so my cat can relax in her own space and your dog can decompress safely. When I'm in your home, I treat your space just like I’d want someone to treat mine. I make sure bowls are cleaned and refilled with fresh water, any messes are taken care of right away, and doors are always securely locked before I leave.

About: I currently have 2 large rescue dogs and am an active volunteer at the humane society. I also grew up with cats and dogs. I am able to care for all animals. I am able to do walks, playtime, feedings, giving medication whatever is needed! I work in hospitality so I have a flexible schedule I am always free mornings and midday, and can let animals out late at night when needed. I currently live in an apartment with 2 dogs so only available for drop in visits. I cannot care for animals at my own place.
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.

About: Longtime pet owner who loves animals and volunteers at the Humane Society. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to providing loving, dependable, and personalized care.

I pay close attention to your pet’s individual needs and care routine. Their safety, comfort, and well-being always come first, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care while you’re away.
“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.”

The daily updates and sweetest pictures gave us peace of mind and showed us she was having the time of her life. We truly can’t recommend Natali and KJ enough!”

“Rachel was everything you would hope for in a dog sitter!! She sent us a daily photo of our Murphy girl, was super responsive when we had questions and very flexible with pick up and drop off times! Murphy had so much fun staying at her house and we will definitely be reaching out to have Murphy stay again! We are so thankful to Rachel for taking great care of our girl, we were able to actually relax on vacation knowing Murphy was safe and happy.”
“Grateful that Hailey was willing to take Leo for 5 nights on relatively short notice. Leo was 10-11 months old and a rehome when we adopted him about 16 months ago, and this was his first stay away from our home, so you can imagine I carefully reviewed sitters on Rover. Hailey was my number one choice. She encouraged a meet and greet, which I also think is essential. Hailey listened carefully as I described Leo and his quirks. She gave Leo the space and time needed for him to settle in and warm up to her and she was quite prompt with meeting times and dog walks. Leo seemed quite content when I picked him up. I'd love to board Leo with Hailey again when the need arises.”
“Caden and his wife were really awesome. Always keeping me updated about my 3 dogs. My dogs seem to love staying with them for 4 nights. In addition, their rate is so much mire affordable than most. Really happy with the service. I would definitely use his services again. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Melinda and David, we're wonderful with the Athena. She appeared happy in all the photos. It was our first rover and we would definitely come back again.”
“Chante was awesome! She helped to take of our dog when we had a last minute change of plans come up and she took amazing care of her. Would definitely recommend her to others and will be looking to use her again the future.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, especially French Bulldogs, and have experience caring for animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to hamsters, fish, and even horses. I also volunteered at a dog rescue in Chicago for about a year, so I’m very comfortable with dogs who are shy, nervous, need patience, or simply take a little extra time to warm up. I currently have a very friendly French Bulldog of my own, so I’m especially familiar with dogs who need a little extra attention or have health considerations. He recently had spinal surgery, which has given me firsthand experience with giving medication, following restrictions, keeping up with special care instructions, and being extra attentive to a dog’s comfort and mobility. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog wants three long walks a day and nonstop playtime or would rather curl up on the couch and get attention, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I genuinely love having animals around and treat every dog in my care like they’re my own. I work from home full-time, which makes my schedule extremely flexible and allows me to give pets a lot of attention throughout the day. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches while I’m at work. I’m able to take multiple walks throughout the day, accommodate different potty schedules, give medications or additional care when needed, and adjust my routine around your dog’s normal schedule. I’m also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and will do my best to make things as easy and convenient as possible for you. I have an elevator and potty area in my building so no need for stairs/going far! I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. My dog is extremely friendly and would love to keep them company, but I’m also happy to give dogs their own space and alone time whenever they need it. I’m able to completely separate a dog if needed and care for them that way! I’m very attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs, including medications, dietary restrictions, anxiety, or other special care. Dogs are welcome on the couch and in my bed, and since I work from home, they’ll get plenty of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. I’m willing to send photo updates throughout the stay, usually one update every 4-5 hours, so you can feel at ease knowing everything is going okay!
“Shannon did an amazing job! She sent so many pictures and videos of my dog to keep me updated throughout the weekend. She even let my dog tag along to a doggy bday party on the beach, which made me so happy. Shannon was super communicative an flexible and my dog came home a happy girl”
About: Love and grew up with dogs my entire life! Have had multiple different breeds. We raised multiple puppies starting from 8 weeks old so I know how to encourage dogs well. If I was any animal… I would be my dog😋 I am available for dog walking and drop ins every weekend and weekdays 5pm and on. I love to walk and would love your furry friend to join me!! There are multiple dog parks in my apartment complex and many save neighborhood streets around me to walk on. I love the surrounding homes and so will your furry friend!
“so patient with my boy! had no idea his separation anxiety was so extreme and despite that she was insanely patient, understanding and kind to my dog. constant updates and very communicative.”
“Chavelly was a great dog sitter for Truman. She sent me videos and pictures each day. She has a very friendly dog, who Truman enjoyed having a friend to play with. She has a dog park on her property which is ideal for play time. I will board Truman with her again for sure!”
