“Carli was great! She stopped in to visit my kitties and made sure they had all the needed. Very nice personality and excellent communicator. Would definitely recommend her to others and would book her services again in the future if needed!”
About: Hi everyone! I am first and foremost an animal lover! On top of that, I know how to keep your baby active, happy, and healthy! I am more than happy to meet with you beforehand because I want you to rest easy knowing that your baby is in good hands! I had two weenie dogs growing up and they are my world. I've dog sat for friends and family and always have an amazing time! If you have any questions, please contact me! I work the typical 40 hour week so anything after 4:30 on weekdays and any time on weekends I'm here for you and happy to help! Currently I have two kitties that put the biggest smile on my face the second I wake up. Animals just trust me. Every time I visit a friend with a "they don't like people" animal, they still like me!
“Maria was wonderful with Penny for a few drop in visits while I was away! Penny is a senior cat who hides a lot and sometimes soils outside of the box when stressed. Maria always made sure to find where she was hiding, bring extra food and water closer to her, and give her lots of love. She even cleaned up the accidents which was so helpful. Maria is our go-to any time we travel!”
“This was my first time with her as a dog sitter and I had a great experience. I felt very confident throughout, especially because of her detailed updates, photos, and clear communication about anything that came up. She was reliable and easy to communicate with, and she took great care of my dogs. They were in excellent condition when I returned. I will definitely book her again in the near future.”
“Sharyn was a pleasure to work with. She was punctual, reliable, and thoughtful in her care and communication. She did more than was required to ensure my pets had the best experience possible. I will, without hesitation, reach out to her for my future pet-sitting needs.”
“Orly did such an amazing job watching over our cats during the Thanksgiving holiday! We felt very comfortable with her stopping in and looking over them. Very accommodating and sweet. Will definitely be a repeat customer for our next getaway!”
“Danielle was a real life-saver by taking the booking at the last minute due to another cancellation hours before I was leaving town. She was able to meet with me quickly and understood Coco’s care needs. Everything was completed as requested and I returned to find Coco calm and happy! Also enjoyed seeing the pictures and reading the notes from each visit. Great experience with Danielle!”
About: I have a passion for dogs ever since I was a little girl. I have a dog of my own named Brownie who I adore. I know what it is to care and love your furry baby like it’s my own. I make time for your pupps weather it’s a walk, play time, or feeding to bring the love, care and attention while your gone. I have a fenced yard with a routine along with Brownie to keep your pups accompanied. If you prefer for me to stop in and care for your pups as well.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including senior pets and animals with special needs. I’ve cared for dogs with arthritis, mobility problems, and cancer, helping them move around safely, go outside, and stay comfortable. I also have experience with physical-therapy routines, including assisting a dog with weakened back legs and water-treadmill therapy. With cats and dogs, I’ve helped give medications and have experience giving fluids to a cat with kidney issues. I’ve also walked, fed, and watched neighbors’ dogs, including Charlie, Rosie, and Parker. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable adjusting my care to each pet’s individual needs. My schedule is fairly flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with consistent attention and care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I can also work around each pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care and attention they’re used to. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel comfortable, whether that means an energetic walk, extra patience with a senior dog, medication at a certain time, or simply giving a shy pet some space. I’m very careful with leashes, doors, gates, feeding instructions, and anything else an owner points out. Having cared for pets with mobility issues and other special needs, I’m used to paying attention to the little things and adjusting my care when needed. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible while you’re away.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love being around them ❤️ I’ve cared for all kinds of breeds from pit bulls, cane corsos, schnauzers, yorkies, and chihuahuas 🐶🐕🦺 So I’m comfortable with both big and small dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality. I also have my own Yorkie Chihuahua mix that I’ve had since he was a puppy 🐾 I’ve personally trained him, & he’s very well behaved & obedient 💕 That experience has taught me patience, consistency, and how to properly care for and communicate with dogs. Your pet will be treated with love, attention, and care like they’re my own 🐾💖 I’m self-employed, so I have a very flexible schedule and am home most days 🏡💕 This allows me to give your pet lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I’m typically out late Thursday–Sunday (between 1am–6am) 🌙, with Friday and Saturday being my main work nights. Thursdays and Sundays are more flexible for me and can vary depending on bookings. I live in a clean, pet friendly apartment with my friendly Yorkie 🐶 Dogs are allowed to relax and roam safely in the home and will have a calm, comfortable environment to feel at ease. I prioritize safety at all times, keep a secure space, and make sure every pet is supervised and well cared for ❤️ I treat all dogs like my own and always aim to create a loving, stress free experience.
“Absolutely wonderful with my babies! Compassionate, warm, understanding, and very knowledgeable about canine behavior. Fantastic with updates, videos and pictures. I feel very comfortable around her and her interactions with my fur babies. I’m so happy we found her and recommend her enthusiastically! Welcome to the Wolf pack, Ms. Natasha! 🐺🙏❤️”
“Thank you Christina for coming by to take care of our 5 girls. We loved the photos too. We appreciate you taking the extra time to ensure Jovi ate her dinner. We would definately have you care for them again.”
“Haileigh has been AMAZINGGGGGGGGG!!!! She has been communicating with me and sending photos of my baby the whole trip. I felt such at ease with her taking care of Bruce these past couple of days. Literally the best sitter that I could ever ask for.”
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.
“Megan is so reliable, communicative, and loves our animals so much! She is very understanding and happy to follow long sets of directions. She has watched our pets multiple times and I would highly recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Apopka
We had a great drop-in experience with Kayla! She is extremely responsive, we appreciated the timely and thorough communication. She easily managed our 3 dogs, big, small and a foster pup. She was patient with our shy little lady and seemed to gain their trust quickly. We will be booking again!
Mariah was great! We have a pit bull that needs special care and attention, she’s was able to handle all of the request properly. Gave our dog all of the love and attention she needed while we were gone on vacation. It was a stress free experience. We will definitely use her again.
Katherine was hired last minute to take care of my dog, and she was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was very friendly, professional, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. My dog was well taken care of and happy when I returned. I truly appreciate her reliability and kindness, especially on such short notice. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker! 🐾💕
Denice was a total pleasure to work with. Our meet and greet went fantastic and our dogs loved her. So much so, that the little one normally will not eat when we are gone, ate all her food. If we are ever in this area again, I will definitely use her again We highly recommend her.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Apopka choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
