About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much my whole life . I’ve always had a dog growing up except for recently. I find a deep connection with animals that has always allowed me to tend to their needs without instruction it is if were one . I’ve trained countless friends pets on simple manners and how to ask for things. I myself currently have a African Pygmy hedgehog, a canary , and two cockatiels I love meeting new babies ! I work full time at a pharmacy 9-6pm I am available early mornings, late nights & every weekend. I can always work with a schedule if needed I have a huge backyard with lots of grass to run around . If that’s not enough I have a large trail that connects to the back of my home for long walks . Everyone in the family absolutely loves animals and would show them love as if they were family .
“So sweet and responsive. Has done great with the dogs and is very kind and patient towards them. She was very understanding of my dog’s reactivity and we worked together to find a solution where everyone was comfortable. This has been a such a relief knowing I have someone set up to watch the pups even for just a little bit during the day.”

“I couldn’t be happier with Caitlyn’s care for my dog, Stan. She’s been consistently reliable and goes above and beyond during her visits. Whether it’s walking or just spending time with him, I can tell Stan is always excited to see her. She keeps me updated with detailed notes and photos after every visit, which gives me peace of mind. Caitlyn is friendly, professional, and truly loves what she does. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker/sitter!”

“Marisa is the absolute best. I’ve never been happier with a sitter. She is so good with my very anxious dog who takes awhile to warm up and my kitties all love her too! She went above and beyond. Even accepted a last minute drop in request because our flight was delayed. Highly recommend! I hope she’s available every time I need a sitter. Thanks SO much, Marisa!!”

“Linda is always so flexible with being able to walk my dog at the last minute. She is very communicative and makes me feel comfortable when I have a day of plans and cannot take my dog out ❤️”

About: I have been a dog owner since 2018, and I have a beagle who I love so much. I am currently in Florida for school and would love to do some work while in school. I also have a cat who is very good and is okay with dogs. She will tolerate them as long as they keep their distance. She can be separated if really necessary. I can go above and beyond to care for any animal. I spoil my dog and cat like they're my own kids. I go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays and am home all day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, plus the weekends. If I were to dog/cat sit on Tuesdays and Thursdays, they wouldn't be alone; my mom would be home to take care of them as well. I have a yard but can go on walks if needed. I can offer anything that you need and will make sure they get the care they need.

About: I have had a lot of experience caring for dogs throughout my life with all sizes and breeds. My wife and I work full time from home and able to give a lot of love. She is the "run & play" and I am the "snuggle and cuddle." We have a small rescue puppy who loves to play hard and sleep hard. We do lots of walks and she gets along great with other dogs. We will always do a meet-and-greet before we confirm to watch your pup to make sure it is a good fit. My wife and I are both working full time at home with a lot of flexibility. We try to keep a quiet, easy going home during work hours and playtime or walk every two hours. We are happy to have pups in the bed, furniture, etc. We do request a meet and greet but mostly so we get to know your pup!
About: For 12 years I’ve had the honor of caring for my 86 lb. Pitty named Shadow, who enjoyed a very rich and healthy life. Shadow is now in doggy Heaven, but had the very best life any dog could ask for. Shadow was a very active & playful dog who enjoyed our daily runs, walks and playing fetch. I have a lovely pet friendly home and would love to share it with your fur babies when you are in or out of town. I work full time, but get home very early in time to run, walk and play with your dog. I do not work on Sat or Sun so we have all day to enjoy our beautiful Florida weather indoors or outdoors. My yard is fenced in and I typically go for daily walks with the dogs in my care. My home is lovely yet pet friendly and your dog would be welcomed as if it were their own home. I have multiple crates of varying sizes if your dog requires crating, but it is not mandatory while they are here. You can bring your own crate if your baby is more comfortable with what they already know. Also, they can use the potty as often as they like as I usually sit outside with them. My care is superior and my home is safe and friendly. Try me, I promise you will be more than satisfied. My fur babies comes first, everything else is second nature. I’m dedicated to giving the best care I can possibly give ensuring each baby is comfortable, happy, safe and get enough exercise through play and walks throughout the day. All dogs are kept separate if they come from different homes. They eat separately as well so as not to cause food aggression or anxiety amongst each other.

About: Hi! I’m Rachel, and I’m an animal lover who genuinely believes pets are family. 🐾❤️ I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry babies with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as comfortable and worry-free as possible for both you and your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet wants lots of cuddles and attention or prefers a little space, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m especially comfortable caring for cats and love getting to know each one’s unique personality — including the shy, sassy, and slightly spoiled ones! 🐈⬛💕 I’m also very responsible when it comes to feeding schedules, medications or special instructions, litter box care, playtime, and keeping you updated while you’re away. Your home and your pet will always be treated with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pets and help give them a happy, comfortable experience while you’re away! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to build visits and pet care into my daily schedule and make sure each pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. I’m very comfortable following established routines, including feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, playtime, and other special instructions. I also understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I make it a priority to be dependable and keep their routine as close to normal as possible while their owners are away. 🐾💕 I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, medications, and any special treatments they may need. 🐾 I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat them with the same care I would want someone to show my own home. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention and companionship while their owners are away, while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and being well cared for. 💕
About: I’ve had pets throughout my life. Most dogs approach me readily. I enjoy giving belly rubs and back scratching. Playing fetch in and outside and giving them attention I am retired and am available 7 days a week and am at home most of the day. I leave a sliding glass door and patio door open for them to go in and out freely I have a fenced back yard with plenty of room to run. I don’t have a a 80lb Black Lab under 2 years old that’s loves playing. I have Airbnb space and welcome pet guests along with the two legged variety. I have a pool for the swimmers and vinyl floors for cool resting spaces I’m retired from a career in accounting so dog care is the biggest part of my day. It give me flexibility to schedule meet and greets an can accommodate drop offs and pickups throughout the day and evenings I work hard keeping your pet safe. I separate dogs at their feeding times to avoid any territorial issues I allow the dogs as much outdoor time as possible I keep hard bones and ropes all around to keep them occupied. Most daycare dogs leave having spent a lot of energy and usually rest well when they get home I am fully retired so I’m home all day most days. If I go out to run errands I’m gone 1-2 hours. Should I be gone longer, I will check your practice that you use there. I’m outside a lot and will let your dog play as much as possible, I do have a covered patio with a tile floor so the can cool down and get water. I have a pool that I can block access when needed Pets sleep indoors and usually in my bedroom floor or my bed when there’s enough room. I allow them on my sofas and the sleep there as well. I feed them twice a day between 7-8am and 5-6pm and treats in between
“Great experience with Emma ! She was on time, reliable, and took great care of our two dogs and cat. She was even able to get our usually anxious dog comfortable enough to go outside, which meant a lot to us. Thank you”

“Stephanie was amazing 10⭐️. I could tell the second I met her or even communicated through messaging, that she loved animals. After the meet and greet, I totally felt at ease leaving my dog 🐶 in her hands. Don’t second guess who to go with, definitely go with Stephanie. Im newer to the area and Stephanie is for sure my new go to for all my animal help😁🥳 BIG THANK YOU STEPHANIE🤩”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, bunnies, guinea pigs and birds! I love animals and have been pet sitting for over ten years and hopefully many more. My vast experience with different species of pets helps me to adapt and problem solve in any situation. I’m happy to communicate with you and help care for your pets! I am a college graduate and I currently have one dog with my family; she is the highlight of our lives! We make sure she is in good health with her diet and veterinary visits. I have cared for many pets for my friends, family and neighbors throughout the years. I love to see animals thriving in their environment and when responsible, help out with that to the best of my abilities. In our home our porch is screened in for our dog to go outside and sunbathe, we take her for walks, and have specific food for her diet!

Wonderful care for our 8 week old puppy! He required 3 long visits a day when we were not working from home, and he is a nervous puppy. He could not settle to sleep when alone. The usual recommendations were not working right away and I created a very specific routine. I trained Anastasiia on the methods and she picked up quickly, meeting his needs at each visit. Bentley responded very well to her calm manner and he made progress in her care! I highly recommend.

I needed a last-minute reservation, and Emily was incredibly accommodating. What impressed me most was the genuine concern she showed for Lucy, especially while caring for her in the rain. It’s clear that Emily truly cares about the pets she looks after. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter.
Sherri did a wonderful job caring for our pets! She was such a lifesaver being able to help out at just a short notice. First time meeting her and I felt like our animals would be in good hands and they were! I recommend Sherri if you want a reliable and caring person to watch over your pets, 100%! :)

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 Westchase 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
