“Sarah was a very good choice in having them check-in on our dogs. Being a first time user of the app, I was very nervous, but Sarah made sure to keep us up to date as to what was going on every step of the way. Sarah took our dogs out, fed them, cleaned up after them and even reported that one of the dogs broke something. I highly recommend this sitter!!!!!!”


About: I grew up caring for many kinds of animals and have always been a lover of nature and wildlife. With our family pets, we often fostered cats and dogs, as well as newborn kittens and puppies. I volunteered for the Animal Welfare League in Port Charlotte, FL, caring for cats and dogs of many varieties for several years. I currently have 4 cats of my own, all rescues which I love dearly! It would be an honor for you to trust me with the care of your pet, and I guarantee that I will love and care for them as if they were my own. I have experience with providing cats with basic, routine medical treatments such as pills, topicals, and liquid medications. Communication is important to me, and I will gladly provide you with any updates or answer any questions you may have while I'm looking after your home or pet. I'm currently seeking more self-employment opportunities, so my availability for daily or weekly sitting services is completely open! If you're looking for regular walks/visits, we can work together to schedule according to your pet's needs. You can rely on me to treat your home and pets with integrity and respect. Ensuring the comfort and safety of your animals is my top priority! I will listen to your unique needs and concerns, and provide attentive care.
“Stephanie was nothing less that AMAZING with our fur babies!! They loved every second of her company! She took such great care of them while we've been away! She took away the stress of having to leave them. I can't express my gratitude to her enough. She's a godsend! We love her ❤️”

About: Hi! I’m Jay, a dependable, trustworthy animal lover who understands that pets are family. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and treating every dog as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule outside of my full-time career, allowing me to provide walks, drop-in visits, and quality one-on-one attention. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, an energetic walk, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, you can count on me to be there on time and provide exceptional care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and any special instructions you provide. When your pet is with me, you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is simple: earn your trust by providing dependable service and giving your pet the love, attention, and care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I have a German Shepard/lab dog so taking care of your fur baby will blend right in with our daily walk sessions when the weather allows us to do so. Your for baby will be an excellent hands with the help of our dog Jacob. We have a huge backyard which is more than enough room for the babies to play. Not to worry they are never left unattended

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me! I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes, I have a dog of my own that I walk, play with, and care for daily so I understand what it means to be trusted with such an important job. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society so I have gained experience and been around all types of dogs with different personalities and needs! With me, your pup will get plenty of love, care, snuggles, and walks just like they should! I am currently working on my RBT certification so I am completely open to anything at this moment! My schedule will eventually be Monday-Friday 8-3, but for now I can work with just about anything! I have a fenced in yard, I have plenty of friends with dogs if they need a playmate for the day, and I am extremely active so they will get plenty of exercise if need be!
About: I have many years of experience taking care of your fur babies. Any service needed I've stepped up to the challenge. Young puppies who need to get their energy out, old pups who just need some extra loving, big puppies who require a strong grip and extra patience. I also have experience in fostering and rescuing with having rescued over 20 cats/kittens and provided medical and rehabilitative care. I am a veteran with medical experience who is currently in school to receive my bachelors. I’m on summer break right now so I will have plenty of time for any pet and any service they require. I will be flexible to work with any schedule conflicts long term or part time. My goal is to make your life easier! I live in a house. Although I do not have a fenced yard, I live in a beautiful golf course gated community with tons of space for long walks. I do have one cat who is friendly with other pets. If your pet is one to cuddle they will be allowed on beds and couches or if you prefer them to be crated I will follow along with your instructions as well.
“Evan is very sweet and all our pets instantly loved her! She made me feel very comfortable with all of her personal experience with pets as well as how easily she gravitated toward all of our babies :)”

“Good communication! Sent me numerous photos during her check ins with my two cats, even fed my fish for me which was extremely helpful. Always on time and interacted with my cats, making them comfortable while I was away.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats alike since I was little. I have always enjoyed taking care of animals of all kinds! I kept reptiles and chinchillas growing up and also had quite a few geckos. I currently have my dog Nova and cat Ninja to take care of. I love them to pieces and that love alone has helped friends and family keep me in mind when it comes to going on fun walks, feeding, and sometimes with bathing! I was even given an award in high school voted as biggest Animal Lover. That was in 2015 and it hasn’t changed a bit! I run my own business so I’m very flexible with my time. I also have my own dog that I walk daily on a routine and with daily dog park time. We go on morning walks to the beach, she gets walked all the way to the dog park a block away and spends a lot of time outside. Pet care is and has always been apart of my daily routine! I love in an apartment and currently I am at max capacity for animals in my home, however, you can trust that your pets will be taken care of with the same love I give my own. I have worked with dogs of all ages and sizes. Whether we are going on a walk or taking them to the dog park I can handle your pets needs. I did go to school for wildlife rehabilitation and can administer most medications if need be. I am very patient and loving when it comes to all pets, so whether you have a grumpy ole pup or a shy one, I am more than happy to take my time making sure they are comfortable in my care. I have experience with most reptiles, including snakes, amphibians, geckos, and most lizards. I do not have a lot of experience with birds but I am always learning!

About: Your pup or cat will have the best care under me they will have lots of cuddles, walks, kisses, play time and runs! I am experienced with small dogs from a tea cup chihuahua to a large breed dog like a great dane. If your pet is taking medication I will be attentive to their care and make sure they are treating like my own. I will always make sure to text or call with daily updates. If there’s anything specific such as certain amounts of walks a day, being groomed, or if they need to go to the dog park etc... I don’t mind doing those things. I can’t wait for you to book me today I can’t wait to meet your sweet angel! :)
About: I have owned both dogs and cats my entire life from 10lbs to 100+. I have no formal training but have yet to meet a dog I wasn't able to leash train with no pulling or jumping within a few sessions. I am confident and not easily intimidated with large or loud dogs which makes establishing a bond and rapport easier and quicker. Giving medication or any special needs are not an issue. My dog is my Queen so I understand special requests and also not an issue. I will go the extra mile whatever that entails, including walking an entire mile if that’s what your baby needs. Willing to come early or later if it looks like bad weather so your loved one gets the exercise they need. I prefer to meet more challenging dogs before committing to ensure I am the perfect fit. Always available to answer any questions or concerns and love to send photos so you know your pet is getting the attention they need. I recently quit my job to start my own small business which has been a success but find myself with a lot of extra time. I will have a consistent, reliable weekday schedule with varying availability on weekends. I am not able to board or sit pets in my home as it is not large enough but can easily do it in yours. My dog Mya and cat Narcissa are both treated like queens in every sense of the word and will treat yours as if they were mine. During walks I will always have plenty of cool water on hand and pay extra attention to over heating and hot pavement. I walk for as long as your dog wants or needs to during the scheduled visit time. I am not opposed to special requests like medication administration or even simple bathing for additional fee. I will always be available to communicate with, will report any issues that need attention, and send as many photos of our time together as you wish.

About: I have experience with both cats and dogs. I am Fear Free certified and am a certified veterinary assistant. I have also volunteered at the Pet resource center and at Blue pearl pet hospital. So, if your pet has any medication they need to take, I can help with that too. I'm a stay at home mom, I drop my kids off at school early in the morning and pick them up at noon. My husband works from home, so I don't worry about my children and am available pretty much throughout the day to take care of your pets. Occasionally I'm out weekends, but it's not so often. I will always slowly introduce myself to the pets I'm caring for and ensure them that I am there to take care of their needs.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid—everything from German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and Great Danes. I’ve administered medicine, handled special feeding routines, and taken care of elderly animals with extra needs. I’ve also pet-sat for family friends, neighbors, and multiple households over the years. I currently live with cats I care for full-time, and I’m happy to help with additional tasks like watering plants, taking out litter, or feeding fish. I’m great at following specific instructions and keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently between jobs and going back to school in the fall, which means I have full availability all summer long. My schedule is extremely flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet-sitting needs—whether that’s regular check-ins, overnights, or last-minute help. I live locally in Mulberry and often help out at my family’s pharmacy, but otherwise my time is yours! I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I always follow the pet’s routine to keep things consistent—mealtimes, walks, medications, and even preferred toys or napping spots. I’m respectful of the client’s space and clear about communication, sending regular updates and checking in if anything seems off. I make sure pets feel safe by being patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs—whether that’s quiet time for a nervous cat or extra play for an energetic pup. Trust is everything, and I take that seriously from day one.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Auburndale is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,010 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Auburndale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Auburndale 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.
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Auburndale with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
