“Jin was great with our two dogs! She carried our elderly dog outside because of our two steps and she gave both of them their enrichment activities mid day to work their brains. She spent time cuddling with them too. ❤️❤️ one of our dogs is sensitive to new people and she is patient and slow with him and he loves her!”
“I video chatted with Clara the night before her visit. She was very nice and reassuring that Trooper will be well taken care of. I was very pleased and will definitely book her again!”
“Amanda is wonderful! She is punctual, sweet and very loving toward my dog Chase. She goes beyond just walking him. She makes sure he has water in his bowl. Chase loves her. We will definitely continue to use Amanda's services.”
“I have a very annoying dog that has made using any services super scary to me. Nevaeh listened to the whole situation, came over for a meet and greet ahead of time, was extremely understanding and sweet. She was on time and she stayed with them a little extra to get to know them too. She even washed their food bowls which I didn’t even ask her to do. 10/10 recommend! I will be a repeat customer!”
“Samantha was so excited to take care of my golden and was communicative the whole time with lots of pictures and updates. She was on time and very sweet with Lorina. Will absolutely use her again.”
“Rachel was great! I felt totally comfortable leaving my pet in her care for the weekend. She took time to play with him and send me updates. Would definitely recommend!”
“A big shout out to Rachel! Our dog was so happy when she dropped in to take care of him and he was also so much more relaxed than when we used to leave him at a boarding facility. We pray she will continue with her services for years to come.”
“Camila was an EXCELLENT care taker to our dog. We booked her last minute due to a booking incident with another care taker and she was just the perfect match for us. She was so considerate, organized and very communicative. Our dog loved her and she certainly exceeded our expectations. We will definitely book her again to take care of our dog. Thanks so much Camila!”

“It was great having Erika drop in on my kittens. She came over to meet them prior to me booking her which made me feel better and I’m sure it helped with my kittens as well. She was very and friendly and did everything I asked for my kittens. Sent me lots of pictures and videos too. Will be booking her again :)”
About: Reliable and outgoing, I love animals of all sizes and shapes. From volunteering at shelters, to helping friends walk their dogs or caring for cats. I currently have a full time job, although I am available during the week days after 6pm and all weekend to play and care for your loved pets! I follow instructions very well and am detailed oriented. I like to send picture updates for extended care, or even after a one time daily walk! I’d like to make the most comfortable, easy and fun experience for owners and their pets.
“Gabriela watched our 8 parrots while we were away and did a great job! We loved seeing the pics of the birds knowing they were safe and well cared for while we were away! We highly recommend Gabriela, she was great and we are lucky to find her and will be rebooking again.”

Seriously the best sitter ever!! This is our first time leaving our kitty with a sitter we were so nervous. Yicheng was super amazing understanding and kind to our baby. Our kitty loves playing with him so much. We really recommend him as a sitter and we will be using him in the future.
Jin was great with our two dogs! She carried our elderly dog outside because of our two steps and she gave both of them their enrichment activities mid day to work their brains. She spent time cuddling with them too. ❤️❤️ one of our dogs is sensitive to new people and she is patient and slow with him and he loves her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Alafaya on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,235 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Alafaya. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Alafaya stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alafaya. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
