“Tiffany was great! The kitties didn't seem shy around her, and we knew they were in good hands. As first time Rover users we had concerns about letting someone into our home while we were gone, but she put us at ease quickly with the meet and greet visit.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I offer attentive, loving care for both dogs and cats. I have extensive experience with feeding routines, basic leash training, administer-at-home care, and providing plenty of companionship. You will receive clear updates and photos after every visit so you have complete peace of mind. I balance my part-time job and studies with plenty of home-based downtime. Because I study from home frequently, I'm able to provide lots of supervision, frequent potty breaks, and interactive playtime throughout the day and evening. I offer a safe, stress-free environment equipped with a secure fenced yard for playtime and exercise. I double-check all gates before letting pets out, maintain a clean living area, and give regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and comfortable

About: Hi there! 🐾 I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always brought me so much joy! Having grown up with both a small West Highland Terrier and a German Shepherd, I’ve had firsthand experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. From little companions to big, playful pups, I have a special place in my heart for them all! I’m a responsible, compassionate, and attentive person who believes every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going on walks, enjoying playtime, maintaining feeding routines, or simply providing companionship, I love making sure each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Outside of pet care, my professional background in leadership and management has taught me the importance of reliability, communication, and attention to detail. I bring those same qualities to caring for animals! My goal is simple: to treat your furry family members with the same love and care I’d give my own, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in dependable hands. ❤️ Pet care has always been a natural and rewarding part of my life! 🐶 While I work full-time in a leadership role, I have a flexible weekly schedule that allows me to dedicate my days off, mornings, and evenings to caring for furry friends. I’m happy to offer boarding, walks, and drop-in visits based on my availability and each pet’s individual needs. I believe in providing thoughtful, personalized care and making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and companionship they deserve. My goal is to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience for your furry family member while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, dependable hands! 🐾 Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! 🐾 I understand that every animal has its own personality, routines, and needs, and I believe in providing thoughtful, individualized care to help them feel safe and loved. Whether caring for your pet in my home or visiting yours, I make it a priority to follow your instructions closely, maintain familiar feeding and exercise routines, and provide a clean, comfortable, and nurturing environment. I also believe communication is key! I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s beloved pet seriously and will always treat your furry family member with the same patience, kindness, and respect I’d give my own! 🥰

About: I am a responsible and caring dog owner who truly treats my dog like family. My dog is an important part of my life, and I understand how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care. Caring for my own dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and attention to detail. I am experienced with daily feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I am also happy to provide updates and photos to help you stay connected with your pet. I am available for pet care Monday mornings before 10:00 AM, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings until 12:30 PM, and all day Saturday and Sunday. I plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet the time, attention, and care they need. I provide pet care in the client’s home, not in my own home. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I will follow your instructions carefully and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I am responsible, respectful, and attentive when caring for pets and will make sure they are safe and comfortable throughout my visit. I am also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing.

“Shayla was amazing with my fur-baby! She followed instructions as directed, communicated daily, provided prompt responses, and arrived on-time for scheduled check-ins and walks. For example, my dog is given multi-vitamins twice daily and Shayla followed those instructions. She was flexible with her schedule: as I needed to add check-in services and accommodated my last minute requests. She showed some much love and patience towards my fur-baby during my extended trip with lots of hugs, belly rubs and play, which added the comfort my fur-baby needed. I would highly recommend Shayla to anyone who is seeking someone who is truly passionate about caring for your pet, has excellent communication skills, and is extremely reliable. We look forward to booking Shayla again!!”

About: 18+ years of honing my exceptional pet caregiving skills began with my love of books. My father and I would read books on all the different breeds of dogs and pet alike. This jump-started my genuine love for animals which shines through in every interaction. With compassion as my compass, I approach each responsibility with utmost care, showcasing my unwavering responsible, and considerate nature. My experience includes but is not limited to puppy behavior/potty training. Moreover, as a communication major I understand the importance of communication with pet parents before during, and after my time with their furry family members. Trustworthy, clean, timely, and considerate; I am the epitome of excellence in pet care. I love to fill my cup and land with pets that deserve a little extra attention while their parents make the bacon or take a little time for themselves. Your pets will feel like they hit the lottery when they prance onto my acre fully fenced-in island-inspired paradise. I have a full-grown dogs who still have the energy of a pup so they will surely keep your pets company and make them feel right at home or if your pet does better on their own I have private boarding options as needed. My previous property management experience prepared me to come to you as well. I'm accustomed to entering and exiting properties while maintaining the safety and security of your home and furry family members. I'm clean, timely, and will treat your space with respect. Most importantly I have excellent process/procedure-following abilities. With me you can rest assure your pets regular schedule will be adheard too.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Valrico

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Valrico is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 6,980 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Valrico. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
