About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs and am confident handling a variety of needs. I can also provide medication administration and care for pets with special or medical requirements. I currently work from home so I’m available most days. I have 2 mixed labs myself. I like taking breaks and going on walks with my dogs. I am available for drop ins, house sitting, boarding, or walking! I am in an apartment that has a dog park that I take my dogs to daily. I have multiple leashes and may walk or take care of your dogs separately if needed!
“Athena is wonderful! My dog usually doesn’t take to people very quickly… But he did with her! She communicates really well and updates me with pictures every time she is with Bowie! Strongly recommend! Will use her again.”
“With last minute vacation, we found Jackalyn and we love her and Chubbs adores her. Jackalyn is reliable, professional, and genuinely loves dogs. It's comforting to know that Chubbs is cared for like one of their own. The updates, photos, and attention to his needs give us complete peace of mind. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to care for your furry family member, I highly recommend them. Chubbs absolutely adores his walks, and we are so grateful for the wonderful service”
“Ava is amazing You can tell right away how much Ava care about animals. Cheno comes back happy, exercised, and relaxed after his walk with Ava . Communication is excellent, and I always get updates that give me peace of mind. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog.”
“Julieth was amazing she came right when scheduled and took such good care of my babies. It’s so great to have someone reliable and clearly so in love with dogs to take care of my pups.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals growing up and over the past 15 years. Whether they’ve been my own or others I have experience with dogs, cats, bunnies, hedgehogs, and even reptiles! I’m currently working part time and going to school. I have quite a bit of free time at nights and throughout the day Monday- Sunday. Pet care has always been a passion of mine and I think it’s the perfect way to spend my free time! I provide excellent pet care by following each pet’s specific routine, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I stay attentive to their health and behavior, keeping them well-fed, exercised, and mentally stimulated. Clear communication with owners and a commitment to cleanliness and reliability help me deliver consistent, high-quality care.
About: While I may not have years of experience like some, my love for animals does not fall short. I have taken care of dogs, big and small. Some with dietary restrictions and rigid feeding routines and others with a more lax regimen. I have house sat/pet sat and stayed in the owner’s home on multiple occasions. I’ve taken care of four dogs of various sizes at once, done drop-ins to feed/change water and let the puppers out for friends and family members, and I’ve also stopped by to do something as simple as a quick walk. Whatever you need, I can do it! I can assure you that I will treat your pet as my own. I currently work full time at a law firm in downtown but I live in Sanford. I have a reliable car and I don’t mind driving. I can pet sit/house sit on weekdays but I have work so it would be morning care and evening/night. I can also take a midday break if needed. I am off on the weekends so I will be able to be there full time. Depending on the owner, I have put pets into their crates when leaving the house or at night for sleeping but I have also let them roam freely, if the owner allows it.
About: I am a lover to all pets, but especially big dogs. Some people are scared of them, but I think that they’re the biggest babies ever. I’ve had one of my own so I know from personal experience. I’ve handled pets from the tiniest to the biggest so I love them all. I currently work full-time. But I’m a very flexible person and I have no problem with early mornings or late afternoons. I’m honestly OK with any time upon discussion. Just reach out! I care for pets in their own environment so they stay comfortable and stress-free. I follow their daily routine, give plenty of attention, go for walks or play sessions, and make sure they’re fed and happy. I also keep the home tidy and secure while you’re away.
About: I’ve been the lucky owner of my rescued dog for many years and I know how hard it is to leave them at other’s care while traveling or at times of transition. I would love to help other pet owners during these processes. I love dogs! I am a young empty nester that spends weekends at the beach, lakes, and parks with my beautiful dog Giovanna Joy! We would love to welcome yours too to have fun with us in a loving , safe, clean, and cozy environment. I am very active with my dogs and have great knowledge of all parks and entertainment for dogs all around my area. I am very well located and enjoy great availability after 5 and weekends. Your dog will love me!
“Pam was very accommodating and replied quickly to my messages. I would definitely ask for her service again. She was very friendly and professional, while still being comfortable around.”
About: I've taken care of pets my whole life, including giving meds, changing diapers for those in heat, taken care of pets is cathartic for me and I love them. I'm a retired law enforcement professional looking to help make a difference for families knowing their pets are well-cared for and loved while their parents are away. Since retired, I have all the time in the world to do something more fun! I will do whatever your pet may need and want. I'm patient and kind, and know the feeling when having to drop fur babies off at someone house. I want to make sure to earn your confidence! Whatever instructions are given, I will provide exactly. I also try to play with them, walk them, ensure they feel safe. I have a safe non-smoking home with a great lanai to look at the conservation areas, and make sure there are no impediments to their safety and happiness.
About: I’ve grown up around pets and have always loved caring for animals. I had a French Bulldog for about 7 years, which gave me plenty of experience with the day-to-day care, attention, and companionship dogs need. I also currently have a cat who I’ve cared for over the past 2 years. I’m comfortable with different personalities and love getting to know each pet’s individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside and staying active. I’m able to make time for walks throughout the week and can work with different schedules and routines. I also enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to rather than just another task. I’ll always follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions you provide. Before heading out for a walk, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and have everything they need. During walks, I’ll keep a close eye on them, use the leash and equipment you provide, and make sure they’re safe and happy. I’ll also treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: I care for pets like the pug I once I had. Three years since, I've cared for my friends' pets. With a selfless hand, my pet care gives our furballs the love, freedom, and discipline they need to be their best. Each pet is a chance to explore personality and build trust.

AVAILABILITY I work remotely 8 AM to 5 PM, I can be flexible, but require two days notice and exact arrival and departure times. I'll give your furry coworker the attention and care they need throughout the day. LEVEL OF CARE With pet sitting (walks included) and meal plans, I can administer oral medication and apply topical treatments daily or as needed. MEET & GREET I require a meet and greet (M&G) to learn the best way I can support you and your pet. You have 24 hours to confirm the date, time, and address for the M&G. After 24 hours, I archive the chat to give other pet owners a chance to send requests. BOOKING After the M&G, you have 24 hours to book with me. After 24 hours, I archive the chat to give other pet owners a chance to send requests. QUESTIONS Need to know more? Contact me anytime. I'm a hybrid worker with a flexible schedule during the week. We can find the right time that works best for you and your pet. I prefer to care for your pet at your home or in places they enjoy. Whether it's house sitting or a drop-in visit, I want to make sure your pet's comfortable with me and keeps to their routine.

About: I am a stay at home mom to Scotty, that 8 years old. I have been pet sitting well over 10 years, prior to having my son I would go to owners houses back and forth or overnight stay depending on the situation. Every animals need are different to them, just like us humans. Also at that time I had 3 dogs and a cat of my own. They have all crossed over the rainbow now. So I would love to take care of your fur babies while you are away. I also know how important it is to keep animals on a schedule/regiment. I am so excited to have this opportunity for all the wagging tails to come to me to be loved on while their loved ones are away. My son loves all animals especially dogs. I am also very able and capable of giving dogs any kind of medication if it is needed. Our house is way to quite so we would love to have your pets stay with us. Since all of our own animals have made their way over the rainbow, I have been doing in home petsitting and also having my son. I don’t know away of life without having dogs in my house. They are just part of our life as we know it. We love having them. It’s very quite and strange when we have no pups in the house. Taking care of pets in my home, I keep them on their routine they are accustomed to just in my space versus theirs. At their home, same deal. I keep them on the routine they know.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alaqua Lakes
Sarah was so great with our big 90lb fur baby! Our dog can be intimidating to some and he is particular about who he likes. Sarah was a perfect fit! It was such a peace of mind to get photo and video updates while we were away for the day. Sarah went above and beyond in her care - even brushing his fur! Highly recommend!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Alaqua Lakes. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Alaqua Lakes.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alaqua Lakes. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
