“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!”
“Rachel did such a great job watching our sweet girls. She squeezed us in at a last minute's notice, followed all the instructions we left to a T, and even stayed longer on some days to play and give the cats all the attention they could ask for! Our girls loved Rachel, and so will your pets!”
“We met with Michelle before she cared for our dogs. She asked questions that showed she would be attentive to all of the important things and we felt comfortable leaving our girls in her care. Good communication and all went well with an extended drop in. We would definitely use Michelle again.”
“She was really great I would definitely need to. And anyone new to rover!!!!!! I had a a last-minute request and she was able to come out and watch my babies for me that really made them happy and they seemed to take to her very well”
“Cindy is all around the BEST We are very greatful we found her. Communicated the whole time and my dog was so relaxed and happy everyday. In fact, I heard him cry on our cameras the one time she left. Beautiful person and I highly recommend!”

Anna watched my pets while I was in Europe for 3 weeks. She sent pictures and let me know how they were doing each visit. I came home to happy pets AND she kept my plants alive and my house was clean! She bought a nice treat for my tortoise as well which was very sweet. I will be rebooking with her every time I have a trip, can not recommend enough. Thank you so much Anna!
Cherie was amazing with my Frenchie. She came to meet him before the scheduled care which I thought was nice. She also kept me updated with notes and pictures. I felt at ease while I was away knowing he was in good hands. Will rebook and highly recommend for your pet needs.
Rachel was fantastic with my cats. She was also patient with my one cat that needs daily meds and can be a handful. It was so great to know I had someone responsible to take care of my fur kids while on vacation. She was very communicative and sent pics daily. Wish I could give her more than 5 stars! Thank you Rachel!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Alafaya on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,243 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
- 97% 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.
