“Peter was so great with our kitties! He followed our instructions perfectly and helped maintain their routines to avoid stress. They looked happy and healthy when we returned. And the house was clean too! Not even a speck of litter outside the boxes. Thank you for your attentiveness and care, Peter!”
“Sarah always takes great care of my cat Cleo while I’m gone on vacation and she even spends more than an hour or two with her at each visit. Pictures are always sent and many of them and Cleo really likes her which says a lot! Highly recommend 🙂”
“Katharine was super attentive of Nelly and did an excellent job in communicating any finds and needs she had. She took great initiative and was punctual with her schedule. Nelly was definitely loved 🥰”
“I am so impressed. This was my first time allowing anyone, other than family, care for my little man. She was so loving and attentive. Even though he is normally apprehensive to new people her gentle kindness helped him feel comfortable. I would use her again in an instant.”
“Having Dan care for my four cats has once again allowed me to eliminate any concerns about their care while I've been away taking care of healthcare issues for an out of town family member. It is quite a relief to know that I have such a wonderfully caring, competent and dependable sitter to rely upon while I'm away!”
“Our love for Emma knows NO BOUNDS! 1. She takes care of our baby like she is her own and appreciates all the fun quirks of her personality. 2. She goes above and beyond — often comes early and stays late, gives medication, and helped care for our girl after she had surgery. She is by far our favorite Rover sitter and we will always request her first! She is the best!”
“Addie is INCREDIBLE! She is prompt with her responses and was quick to respond to my inquiry and schedule a meet and greet. It is clear she cares about animals and wants them to feel safe with her. She has gone out of her way to make the most of her time with my shy baby every time she’s there, and had given me detailed reports and pictures. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you, Addie!”
“Zachary was great. From the beginning he was very communicative and thorough, and did everything that we needed him to do to ensure that our pets were taken care of while we were away.”
About: I have utmost respect (and lots of love!) for all animals. I truly view them as real friends and equals. With experience, I have also learned how to set and maintain good (and firm - when necessary) boundaries. Dogs have been trusted members of my family since I was a child. I have cared for senior rescue dogs; I have socialized puppies; I have taught reserved dogs new tricks; and I have taught stubborn dogs to sit and wait. I have admittedly less history with cats, but just as much respect and care for them as any other animal. I do currently have one close cat companion (we used to be roommates, and have been best buds ever since). As with all animals, I find that the respect and love I give to the pets I interact with is reciprocated - and often multiplied! As a person who is both adventurous and empathetic, I am generally very well attuned to the health and wellbeing of those around me, and I really enjoy taking dogs for walks almost as much as they do! I also like to play, and I can handle all kinds of doggy games. Big dogs welcome! I am an early riser - morning walks are my favorite! From day to day, I am generally very flexible; I work part-time as an independent handyman (furniture assembly, TV mounting, etc). I can make almost anytime work, as long as we can agree in advance. All requests are welcome! I enjoy long walks (with lots of 30-second stand and sniff breaks). I am both energetic and patient I love to play Always send updates when leaving
“I was concerned about hiring someone to watch my cat for 10 days and found Gwen. She was awesome, kept me updated with pictures and texts of how my cat was doing, which made me more at ease. Gwen is very kind, considerate and I will definitely be using her again.”
“Amber is fantastic! She did a great job communicating with me throughout my trip and took wonderful care of my guinea pigs and chinchilla. I would absolutely book with Amber again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Ava did such an amazing job for us and all our fur babies! We have quite the crew so her experience with dogs really showed! Will definitely be asking her back!!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was little, friends and family rely on me to pet sit for their babies all the time! I have a dog and cat at home so I know how to handle both cuties! I’d love to get to know more animals and help out with your animal needs :)) I only have one class that's in the mornings (8-10AM) and I'm free for the whole day after that on Mondays and Wednesday! Thursdays I work during 5-11pm so I can do morning walks, Saturdays I work morning so I’ll be able to do evening walks! Tuesdays and Sundays are free all day! I can accommodate to any environment, if your dog would like to go out into the backyard that will happen, if they want to sit around and be lazy, that can also happen! In your home I will only be where your dog and will only touch things that are needed for your pet.
“Amanda watched my very anxious dog and my cat while we were out of town. She was always on time, sent an update about what happened at her drop in, and always sent pictures of our fur babies. I love that she also took the time to find my cat at every visit (he was often under the bed). Thrilled with this experience!”
“Gaby is excellent! Gaby kept us informed about our dog in every visit. She was always on time. Dog was not eating first two days and she even offered to prepare chicken for him. I will definitely use her services again and recommend her 100%”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Altamonte Springs
Isabella was wonderful! She took great care of our two cats while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind. She was kind, professional, and very attentive to all of our instructions. We really appreciated the detailed updates and photos after each visit, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about our cats’ well-being. She is very sweet, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter, and we will definitely be contacting her again for future trips. Thank you again, Isabella! ❤️🐾
This is my second time booking with Addie and couldn’t recommend her more. I am confident that she will be reliable, respectful, and loving with my cat. I appreciate that she stays for the whole time making sure the animal feels the love and attention, and she is excellent with her updates and quick responses!
Glad to have had Luna watch my cats again while we were away. She sends great updates and lots of photos that I look forward to every time. She truly cares for our cats and it shows in her communication and Rover cards. We look forward to her next visit with them 😸

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 5,279 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Altamonte Springs. 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 Altamonte Springs 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 Altamonte Springs. 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.
