“Tamara is the best pet sitter! Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communication. Thank you for taking such good care of Pepper and Blizzard. The next time we are in need of a pet sitter, you are definitely my first choice. Thanks again Tamara😊”
“Lauren was great with Bear during our drop-ins! She was reliable, on time, and gave him tons of love and attention. Bear warmed up quickly—her sweet updates and photos showed him happy and getting plenty of playtime and cuddles. She followed his routines perfectly (feeding, potty breaks, extra affection when needed). Such a relief knowing he was in such caring hands. We’ll definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, from beloved family pets to farm animals and reptiles, so I’m comfortable caring for a wide variety of personalities, sizes, and needs. My experience has taught me that every animal deserves patient, attentive, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or has a unique routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. My availability gives me the flexibility to accommodate your pet’s routine, provide timely potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship while you’re away. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions, provide plenty of attention and affection, and ensure they have fresh water and a clean environment. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it.
“Driana was absolutely amazing the care she had for our pups while we were gone. She went above and beyond and took her time with them. Highly recommend and we will be booking with her again :)”
“I am very thankful for Christina! She took extra special care of my kitties and didn’t have to worry one bit. I loved getting the pictures and reports on how well they were all doing and warming up to Christina. Thank you!!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs. I'm patient, attentive, and always focused on each pet's individual needs and routine. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering oral medications, reinforcing basic training, and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind that they're in caring, reliable hands. I currently work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide dependable care for your pets. On weekdays, I'm available for morning walks between 5:30 a.m. and 8:00 a.m., and I can stop by after work between 4:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or whatever your pup needs. On weekends, I have open availability and can accommodate visits throughout the day. I also offer overnight and extended house sitting for vacations or longer trips, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home while receiving the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether you need care for a day, a weekend, or an extended vacation, I'm happy to help! I will care for your pet the way you know is best! Every dog has a unique personality, routine, and preferences, and I'm committed to following the schedule that keeps your pup happy and comfortable. Whether it's meal times, walks, playtime, or naps, I'll stick to the routine you provide. I'll make sure your dog has their favorite toys, plenty of love and attention, and healthy treats (with your approval, of course). Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I also believe it's important for your furry friend to feel comfortable with me. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your dog before sitting so we can build trust and help them feel relaxed while you're away. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet will be cared for as if they were my own.
About: I am my neighborhood’s designated pet watcher and I also own three big dogs of my own. I have experience with very energetic dogs as well as dogs with anxiety. My dog Bear has epilepsy so unfortunately, I am used to giving medication and taking care of his special needs. I am a college student at Columbia University working a part-time remote job this summer with the US government. My schedule is super flexible. I wanted to find another job that I would always enjoy. I am currently working a part-time remote job at a consulting firm this summer. I am a rising junior in college with a car and loads of time. I am willing to drive just about anywhere and make sure your beloved pets are safe while you are away. I am very reliable, prompt and professional.
About: I've owned and taken care of pets of all kinds for 50 years. I'm easy going and will love your babies as my own. I have 2 sons, 4 grandkids, 2 dogs, and 1 parrot! I'm currently a retired, trustworthy grandma with wide availability. I like to stay busy, so I've been house and pet sitting through word of mouth for friends and family for years. I love animals so this has been a great fit for my post-retirement (42years) from the Hillsborough county school system. I am available on short notice 7 days a week. I'm happy to help keep your fur babies routine and make them as comfortable and safe as possible. I'm comfortable giving medication, walks, and plenty of play time.
“Abby is an amazing pet sitter for our two rambunctious Boxer dogs. She's calm, cool and collected. She's always professional and we plan to use Abby again and again as our pet sitter!”
“Leroy was a big help, when we brought our puppy home. Skye really enjoyed seeing him for her potty break every day, while I was at work. I would highly recommend him to anyone! And if I need a pet sitter again, he would be my first choice.”
“Whitney was so loving and attentive with my two cats!! She was quick to notice when my cat was eating less food than normal and we adjusted accordingly to make sure he was okay while I was out of town. She sent the sweetest updates (including potty habits) and always shared tons of photos!”
About: Hello! My name is Valerie, and I am a registered nurse and dog enthusiast. I have about 8 years of experience caring mostly for dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I love all animals and will treat your pets as If they were my own. I am originally from Chicago, and I recently relocated to St. Pete with my rescue dog Mojito. I am looking to walk dogs on the weekends to get some fresh air and meet some sweet pups. I am able to walk dogs, do drop in visits, administer medications, serve food, and replenish water bowls.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Valrico
Brittany took the job of looking out for our advanced- age cat at short notice, and while in her final weeks of pregnancy. She left great correspondence while we were traveling and gave me the piece of mind I did not think I would find. She is responsible, dependable, and great at communicating. We are very happy she accepted our job and we highly recommend her service.
Julianna was extremely reliable, and so compassionate caring for our cat while we were away! We were truly blown away by her attention to detail and her calm nature… She was willing to look out for a few specific things on our list without hesitation. We were so pleased and felt so comfortable knowing that Mochi was in good hands, and it allowed us to enjoy our getaway so much more. We will definitely be rebooking her soon for another weekend away! Highly, highly recommend.
I felt very good about having her visit our house and caring for our cats from the very start. She asked lots of relevant questions about Hobbit and Foo, and they looked happy in every photo she sent with each visit. We'd definitely hire her again, and give a strong recommendation to friends.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Valrico on Rover is $15.54 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,236 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Valrico. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
