We had a wonderful experience!! From the start, she was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about our dog's well-being. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable throughout the stay. It was obvious that they received plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. We truly appreciated the sitter's attention to detail and willingness to follow our dog's routine and special instructions. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.

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!

Lindsay once again delivered exceptional care for our dogs - she literally goes above and beyond - AND sends the most adorable photos of her visits with them, too. We’ve been having to travel out of town to house hunt during the day, so we are gone for several hours at a time. Knowing that a Lindsay will be dropping by, giving our pups exceptional care, and a giving them some love and attention has made these day trips so much more manageable and less stressful. I know I don’t have to worry about them and feel so much less stressed and guilty when we have to leave. She provides such a thorough and detailed report of her time spent with them, too. I truly appreciate the outstanding level of communication, excellent updates on their Rover Card, and the numerous pictures she sends that prove how happy our dogs are that she’s there. Lindsay, thank you for being so reliable, trustworthy, and communicative. You’re literally the best! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Lindsay to anyone. I don’t know what we will do when we move! It will be nearly impossible to ever find another dog sitter as amazing as she is.

About: I have been a pet care taker for over 15 years. I have helped family, friends & neighbors in need of quality pet care. It brings me absolute joy to care for pets while their families are away. As a stay-at-home mom, pet sitting is very flexible. Rather than treating caregiving like a traditional 9-to-5 job, I am able to build my schedule around my children’s routines, household responsibilities, and personal wellness, while still providing the upmost care for all pets. I have two fenced in large patio’s, plus I live in an area with plenty of grass to run around. I’m also not too far from a dog park if your pet allows for that. I am also a stay-at-home-mom, so I will be with your pet all day assuring they are safe and well cared for.

Kyle was awesome for us. She did numerous drop in visits over Christmas break. Was at the house when she said every time and stayed the full 30 minutes. She made sure they were outside playing the entire time too. We asked her while we were gone if she could make a few more visits than we had originally planned and she was more than willing to accommodate our needs. We were very greatful for her help and will definitely use her again in the future if she is available. The dogs loved her from the second she walked in. Couldn't be more pleased!

About: I have years of experience caring for pets of all kinds and currently share my home with my two-year-old doodle mix, who loves making new friends. I provide a safe and loving environment where pets feel at home while their owners are away. From walks and playtime to snuggles and personalized care, I ensure each pet’s unique needs are met. Your furry friend will be treated like family, with plenty of attention and love during their stay! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home, allowing me to provide constant attention and care. I can easily incorporate walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and any special needs into my day. Being home full-time ensures that your pet is never left alone for long periods and always has someone nearby to care for them. My flexible schedule also allows me to accommodate pets with specific routines or preferences. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets in my home. I have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure space for outdoor play and exercise under close supervision. Inside, pets are cared for in a clean, pet-friendly environment where they can relax comfortably.

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: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, attention, and love I give to every pet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them as if they were my own while they’re in my care. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I also believe in clear communication, so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy and well cared for while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM. Since I work from my laptop, I have a flexible schedule and can provide care from your home, make drop-in visits, or spend quality time with your pets throughout the day. I enjoy staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. My only regular commitments are church on Sunday mornings and ministry on Tuesday evenings, but outside of those times, I have a flexible schedule and can work with a variety of pet care needs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any specific instructions provided. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel comfortable around me. Whether they enjoy being active, playing, going for walks, or simply relaxing and cuddling, I adjust my care to what makes them happiest. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I have had so many opportunities to take care of fur babies throughout my life! I lived in a farm for most of it but as an adult I have had my dog all through college up until now. I intentionally keep my schedule flexible so I can give each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time outdoors and love making sure every fur baby gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to keep that routine consistent while you're away. During visits, I'll provide fresh food and water, take your pet on walks or let them out for potty breaks, play with them, give them plenty of love and attention, and clean up after them as needed. I'll also make sure your home is respected and secure by following any instructions you leave. My goal is to help your fur baby feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in the place they know best.

About: I am going to school to study veterinary medicine and I work at an animal hospital and I’ve been around animals and all the different situations they have. When I wake up I feed my dogs and let them out before I leave for work or school and spend time with them outside when I get home. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks or walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care needs provided by the owner. I also keep the environment clean and safe, monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health, and provide updates to owners so they feel confident their pets are well cared for

Tamara saved us and is now our go to! We were blindsided by our vacation home with a more restrictive pet policy than we had hoped for only 1 day before our planned departure so in a panic we turned to Rover. Tamara was extremely quick to respond. She was professional and kind and completely understanding and supportive of our situation. The pups warmed up to her pretty quickly.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Valrico

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Valrico on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 6,861 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Valrico. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Valrico stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Valrico choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Valrico with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Valrico. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
