“Shelby is amazing!! He’s great. I needed someone to walk my dog after surgery. Shelby was dependable, trustworthy, friendly, independent, and adaptable to our routine and household. Will definitely book again. Our household didn’t miss a beat thanks to his help.”

About: Hello, I am an animal love with a masters in marine science. I’ve owned and looked after dogs and cats. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to work holidays. I have a very flexible schedule right now and reliable transportation. I will have plenty of time to give extra love and care to your pets. I make a list of each pets needs and preferences so that your pet receives optimum care. I will ensure safety for your pet and your home.

“I never really hire a dog walker because it’s good exercise for me to do it myself and I work from home. Unfortunately, I hurt myself recently and was unable to walk due to back issues. I reached out to Matt the morning after with only 45 minutes of notice and he came to walk Barkley. Not only that, but over the next few days as I was healing and still not able to walk, he came three times a day, always on time and walked Barkley. A true life saver!”

About: Hi! My name is Jolie and I’m a student at the University of Tampa studying law. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three at home: a teacup Yorkie, a goldendoodle, and a wheaten terrier mix. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve honestly begged my parents for just about every animal under the sun growing up. Right now I help take care of my teacup Yorkie, so I’m very used to giving lots of attention and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I love being active, working out, and going on long walks, but I also understand that every dog is different. My Yorkie isn’t the biggest fan of long walks, so I’m very used to adapting to each dog’s personality and energy level. I’ve also been around dogs with different temperaments, including more nervous or aggressive dogs, so I’m patient and know how to stay calm and handle situations carefully. I truly love animals and will treat your dog like my own while you’re away! I’m currently a college student and I’m off for the summer, so I have a lot of flexibility and time to focus on pet care. I love being active and going on walks, so taking dogs out and spending time with them fits really well into my routine. I’m available most days and can easily adjust my schedule depending on what your dog needs, whether that’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m mainly looking to do dog walking and house sitting, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I’m responsible and will follow whatever routine your dog is used to, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I do have a dog of my own, so if I’m house sitting I may need to step away occasionally to check on her, but I always make sure pets get the attention and care they need.

“Serena was amazing! She is great at communicating (she responded to my changes and details quickly) and rebel loves her. It is so nice to have someone I can trust when I am unavailable to be there for my dog. She was always on time even when I made changes to the location/details. I would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again in the future for Rebel. (: Thank you Serena!”

About: I tested myself with my first dog at age 12, now with both sisters starting to become seniors, I have had experience with all age groups of dogs and cats. On top of that I have pet sat many dogs including 7 bull dogs at a time, which required much attention due to their high maintenance nature. I would mainly be doing this in the mornings and afternoons, as I have part time job and a student. But I am open to some weekends. I make sure my dog is walked on a daily basis both day and night making sure she lets everything out before going in, I also stay on top of feeding and taking care of her.

“Valerie was wonderful! We left our 10yr old german shephard at home with a friend for 6 days. The friend spent the nights but needed to go back to St Pete to work during the day. That was when I discovered Rover and Valerie, and I'm so glad I did. Valerie was always on time, communicated well, and adjusted the activity to what my old boy needed. I highly recommend her services!”

About: My experience being solely responsible for pets and playing with pups ranges all the way back to when I was in elementary school about ~25 years ago. Over all the years many friends and family members have asked me to watch their pets in several capacities. This could be for just a few days to somewhere around 10-14 days. Taking their pets to my home, stopping by theirs a few times a day, or just taking them out on a whim when needed. I wanted to extend the same courtesy to my neighbors. When I learned what boarding rates were I couldn’t believe it. I’m in this more to help folks out who need the assistance (especially in a pinch) than I am to derive any form of surmountable income. I am retired from the United States Army and care more about helping/leading others than I do profiteering from them. Being retired and working part-time, I find myself with lot of time and availability to help those who need it, especially in a pinch. I never find myself meeting a pet I don’t click with almost immediately, so I am open to taking on new pups, felines, and of course their caring owners. Once an initial conversation is had it’s very easy to fit the mold of a pet’s routine and/or preferences. Please let me know how I can best assist you and your loved ones.

About: Hi! I’m 19 years old and I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have about 4 years of experience caring for dogs, including regular dog walking and daily care. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! ❤️🐾 Pet care fits very well into my routine. I study from Monday to Thursday and finish classes at 2 PM, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets, go on walks, and give them the attention they need. I’m also available on weekends and can be flexible depending on each pet’s needs. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding instructions, walking schedules, and any special needs. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and safe, and I never leave pets unattended during walks or playtime. I treat every pet with patience and respect, making sure they feel secure, loved, and comfortable at all times.

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m currently serving in the Navy while attending college, and I bring that same level of discipline, reliability, and attention to detail into my work with animals. I specialize in working with dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I trained my golden retriever, Eleanor, from severe anxiety, she couldn’t even tolerate a leash at first, to becoming a confident, happy dog through consistent, positive reinforcement. That experience taught me how to read body language, build trust, and adapt to each dog’s unique personality. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or needs structure, I provide safe, attentive, and engaging walks tailored to their needs. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize their comfort and well-being. I’d love to meet your pup, feel free to reach out to schedule a walk! Caring for dogs is something I naturally build into my day. I already plan my routine around my own dog, Eleanor, so adding walks, playtime, and check-ins for other dogs fits in seamlessly. I’m used to staying consistent with schedules, and I make sure every dog gets the time, attention, and care they need. It’s something I genuinely enjoy, not just something I fit in. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk times, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. In a client’s home, I make sure the environment stays clean, safe, and stress-free, and I respect the space as if it were my own. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and body language to ensure they’re comfortable, especially for dogs who may be anxious or adjusting. In my own home, I provide a structured, calm environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and positive interaction. I prioritize safety at all times and never leave pets unattended in situations that could be stressful or unsafe. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they feel confident and connected while they’re away.

“Danielle did a fantastic job with Luna. She was timely, great with communication, and provided a lot of photos throughout their walk. She was very friendly and someone would I would definitely use again in the future! Would highly recommend!!”

About: I was lucky enough to grow up in a household where pets were the norm so I have plenty of experience throughout childhood learning how to keep a pet happy, safe, and comfortable. I also have had roommates with various pets that I would care for while they were out of town, sometimes even for entire summers, so I am comfortable around other people's animals. I have taken care of diverse types of pets with varying breeds, ages, energy levels, triggers, etc. and love meeting new animal friends! Whether your pet is hyper and loves to play, or a little older and prefers low-energy activities, I will provide the best care possible. I work remotely as a data analyst with a very flexible schedule so it is not difficult to fit any pet care - no matter the needed time constraints. I care for pets carefully in the home and do everything possible to make sure the pets are aware they are in a secure, safe, and loving environment when I am present.

About: I have extensive experience volunteering for the humane society and have managed all types of dogs. I learned a lot about dog behavior from their on-site behavioral specialist and feel comfortable with most dogs. Let’s schedule a meet and greet! Flexible! I’m available most days and keep my schedule updated. I can take care of your pets during the day, night, or weekend. Message me! Your pet has all of my attention! When I’m caring for your fur baby, I make myself available to take them out for frequent walks/potty breaks and make sure they have everything they need at all times.

“Christopher is awesome. He is so nice, on time, great updates and pictures, and Nena loves to explore the neighborhood with him and meet new friends.”

About: Hello there! I have grown up with medium sized dogs, cats and also had a hairless sphynx cat of my own who lived an amazing life with me. I lead an extremely active lifestyle so I myself enjoy long walks (haha) and also just quality time playing with animals. I’m respectable, clean, trustworthy and all around dog and cat lover. I don’t mind animals in my car if transport is needed and I have an intermediate sized Ruffland Kennel in my car. I pride myself in being punctual and able to thoroughly read and follow instructions.

I will treat your home with respect and provide your pet with care as if it was my own. I am able and have the patience to take care for your pet even during crate training and potty training.

About: Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. I’ve been pet sitting for over 8 years, starting with my aunt’s poodle, and it quickly became something I truly enjoy. I’m very patient, attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with different personalities, from energetic puppies to older pets that need extra care and gentleness. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. I’m currently a college student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the week.

I make sure every pet is in a safe, clean, and stress free environment at all times. I don’t have any pets of my own, so your pet gets my full attention. I do occasionally care for my aunt’s poodle, so I’ve made sure my apartment is completely pet friendly and safe. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep their pet’s routine consistent and comfortable.
