“Ryan was so great! I have three dogs. Two pits and a rotty. My rotty is 13 and limps. He is who I worried about the most but Ryan was so patient with him, helped him up and gave him all the pets.”

About: From a young age, we’ve nurtured a deep love for animals, caring for a wide range of pets with tenderness and compassion. We’ve always felt a strong connection to the animals we look after, seeing them as beloved companions. One of our proudest achievements is raising our dog from a puppy, guiding her through training to become a well-behaved, affectionate adult. We’ve also had the privilege of caring for a neighbor’s senior dog, providing comfort and companionship. This experience reflects our genuine passion for animals and our commitment to their happiness and well-being. We work remote with flexible work hours and have a dog of our own. She often goes for walks and of course requires some belly scratches. Our home has a fenced in yard and we personally have a 8 year old cocker spaniel that loves to play but then also likes to chill. She matches the energy around her. We do not have dog crates, if your fur baby is crate trained, we request you provide a crate for their stay.

“Johnny was recommended to us by friends and was great and easy to work with. Our puppy loved hanging out with him on her drop in. We will definitely be using Johnny again soon.”

“Great, thoughtful service! Thanks for taking care of my cats and home while I'm away, from dragging heavy, sometimes wet boxes in to keeping things tidy and providing love to my pets. I appreciate everything you do!”

“Karen and Jason treated our babies like they were their own. They made quick friends with even our shyest cat and really made us feel SO MUCH BETTER about being away. I cannot recommend Karen enough!!”

About: I provide reliable, attentive dog walks and drop-in visits designed to keep your dog happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away or at work. I know how important consistency is, so I take the time to learn your dog’s preferences, energy level, and any special needs. Whether it’s a refreshing walk, a potty break, playtime, feeding, or just some calm companionship, I treat every visit as if it were for my own pet. I’m patient, observant, and always focused on your dog’s safety and well-being. You can expect clear communication, timely visits, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident your dog is well cared for. My goal is to make sure your dog feels secure and cared for and you feel completely at ease. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be dependable, responsive, and present for the pets I care for. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to accommodate consistent drop-in times, midday walks, and last minute needs when they arise. Working remotely also means I’m easy to reach and quick to respond, and I can give your pet my full attention during each visit without rushing. Your pet’s routine is always my priority, and I’m happy to adjust visits to match their normal schedule as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress free. For dogs, I focus on safe, controlled walks using secure leashes and harnesses, awareness of surroundings, and pacing that matches your dog’s energy level. During drop-in visits, I make sure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured and that your dog has fresh water, a calm environment, and attentive supervision. For cats, I respect their space and cues, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I’m careful with doors, litter areas, and feeding routines, and I always double check that everything is secure before leaving. Whether a cat is social or more reserved, I provide patient, low stress care at their pace. I maintain a clean, safe environment during every visit and communicate clearly with updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed, cared for, and safe and for you to have complete peace of mind.

About: I have some training experience Over 5yrs experience Dogs of all shapes and sizes Personalized care My longest running client is a Pitbull named Bear who, when i first met him would be very anxious on walks. Through years of working with him he's now a much more confident walker. So please believe me when I say I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I did recently start working in the area. I'm still very new to the area. I can usually accommodate upon requests. More so if scheduled in advance. Within my over 5 yrs experience caring for puppers I have cared for them at both my house and at my client's house. I have always maintained a clean environment, personalized care in that I will maintain your rules concerning your dog. Above ALL else I MUST maintain trust with my clients. If you or your dog don't trust me then I can't do my job and worse yet it's usually the dog that suffers in the long run.

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember, and our home is perfectly set up to welcome your pup — with a spacious backyard and two humans who work from home. After recently saying goodbye to our senior dog, our young pup could use a playmate, and we’d love to share our space with yours. Friends, Rover families, and local rescues have trusted me for years to care for their dogs, and I’ve spent countless hours volunteering — most recently at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. As a certified dog trainer, I’ve dedicated my life to working with animals. Dogs truly are my heart, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, care, and affection I give my own. Fair warning: they’ll be spoiled in the best way possible! I am currently working full-time on Rover and have a flexible schedule. I'm ideally looking for long-term clients, but am open to your occasional needs as well. I have one of the largest fenced-in backyards in the neighborhood — big enough that friends bring their pups over just to run and play. We’re also a short walk from a couple of great parks, so there’s no shortage of adventure. And at minimum, every dog gets two daily walks of at least 30 minutes each to keep them happy, healthy, and exercised.

“Alina is reliable and she is great with Pablo. She treats him like family and cares for him exceptionally. She communicates promptly and openly. She’s a trusted sitter and someone I know I can count on to care for my baby.”

“Sophia is amazing!! She did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Oreo. Oreo is a loving cat also and looked forward to Sophia’s daily visits. He would start meowing before she could even open the door. She cleaned up his litter that he tracked through the house and ensured he got a full 30 minutes of playtime. She also checked that he had fresh water daily. I would definitely use her again if I’m out of town.”

“Bekah was amazing watching my two cats while I was away for a week. She spent so much time with them and sent lots of great updates and made me feel so comfortable knowing they were being taken great care of while I was away. Thank you!!!”

Gaby H.

“Tina was fantastic with the dogs. Not only was she flexible with our last minute request, she went out of the way to play with them, engage/stimulate them mentally, and in general give them the love and attention they are always craving. Her communication was great, updates were thorough, and her pictures were just amazing. Seriously, I might get 1 or 2 of them framed.”
