“Celine has walked our golden doodle a few times now and she has been extremely kind and accommodating. She is always flexible if plans have changed and our doodle loves her! Will continue to use her for walks ☺️”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets while they’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m happy to follow specific routines and give each pet the individual attention they need. I am very flexible just message me a few hours before to see if I can make the time work as I am a college student and may have class. I live in an apartment complex and I am able to drive to you to walk and take care of your pets! I am excited.
“Summer is the absolute best. She was such a god send for us when moving to Tampa and finding someone to take care of our boy, Louie. Super reliable, communicative, responsive. Just the absolute best. Can’t recommend her enough for your pet care needs!!”

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.
“Nigel carried my "baby" home the other day because she couldn't make it back on her own. He let me know and checked back in with between visits to see if she was ok. I knew Nigel was special since he began helping me with my dog but he went above and beyond, carrying a 65 pound pit bull home instead of dragging her and using harsh commands. I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”

“Bella did a great job! My dog was very nervous at first meeting her for the first time but she loved him up and he was better after that! Would ask her to walk my dog again! Thanks Bella!”

“Tyler has been absolutely wonderful with my pup, Ellie. He has been dependable, trustworthy, and so attentive with her. I just recently downloaded Rover as I started a new job downtown and was nervous about having someone come into my place and care for my girl. I undoubtedly got so lucky to have found Tyler on here. He gives Ellie all the extra pets and lovin when I’m gone at work all day. I will most definitely continue to have Tyler check on her and walk her for as long as he’s willing and able, and I could not recommend his services enough!!😊🐾”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I remember. I grew up with a Newfoundland and a Collie; meaning I have lots of experience with high energy pups as well as mellow ones. I’ve dog sat for neighbors on and off for 3+ years. Will shower your dog with love! I work part time at a restaurant, meaning I’ll definitely have time to fit your dogs needs into my schedule! With work hours, it may be difficult to fit into specific times, but I can accommodate the best that I can. Communication is key. My senior girl dog is not the friendliest with other dogs, so I would refrain from bringing any dogs back to my home. However, I will transport myself to your home and accommodate for your dogs needs/desires as best as I can!
“Great with my pup. Always on time and accommodated to any change. I wish she could keep walking Rafa but I understand she has other commitments. Emma gave me enough advance notice, which shows being responsible and respectful. I will definitely trust her with my pup again ??”

“Johnny is by far the best Rover I have ever had take care of my girl, Lucy. He truly just loves dogs and I am so grateful to him for giving me peace of mind while I have to leave my pup on long work days. Truly 10/10”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles and farm animals since I was young! I currently own my own business so my schedule is very flexible. Perfect for those last minute occasions that pop up. Available whenever needed to take care of your fur baby! The health, wellbeing and safety of your animal is of my utmost concern. I’ll always have your dog on a leash outside (unless you have a fenced in yard) and monitor their reaction to the environment. If there’s anything “off” about your pet I’ll notify you ASAP.
About: I've worked with animals my entire life, from my own personal pets to working in pet boarding facilities, grooming salons, pet stores, vets office & volunteering with rescue groups. I even ran my own pet sitting business for 5 years, which became highly demanding. Thanks to Rover, I'm looking forward to getting back into pet sitting part time as I love caring for all types of animals. I have experience with everything from dogs and cats to exotic animals and even farm animals. I have more than enough experience to care for your pets and home while you're away. I’m self-employed and structure my schedule around providing consistent, dependable pet care. Because I manage my own time, I’m able to prioritize visits, maintain routines, and be flexible when pets need extra attention. Pet care is a core part of my weekly routine, not something I squeeze in. I focus on reliability, clear communication, and making sure pets experience as little disruption as possible while their owners are away. My background in client-facing, responsibility-driven work strongly shapes how I approach pet care. I believe pets are most comfortable when they can stay in their own environment and follow their usual routine. My goal during drop-in visits is to mirror what they’re used to as closely as possible to reduce stress and anxiety. I take trust seriously when working inside clients’ homes. In addition to pet care, I’m happy to bring in mail or packages and tend to small household needs like watering plants if requested. I approach every visit with respect for both the pet and the home.

I have two amazing dogs of my own, walking, feeding, loving, and playing with them is priority. I will do the same with your dogs. I have a fenced yard, huge neighborhood to take dogs for a walk. I am willing to come to your neck of the woods if need be!
About: I have cared for many dogs, including my own! I understand that each dog has a unique personality that I will honor with my care! I have a flexible schedule to spend time with your pet. Weekends, mornings and evenings are mostly free for me. I understand convenience is key! I have a fenced in yard, safe and cozy home, and reliable transportation to come to you. My place or yours!
