About: My mother is a verterinarian so I grew up around her veterinary clinic assisting her with tasks. This has helped me really understand our pets and their needs. They will be taken care of and in good hands! Please note: I’m currently accepting bookings in the Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, Cocoa, and Merritt Island areas only. Feel free to message me with any questions! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my schedule. I plan my days around each pet’s needs, making sure they receive timely walks, meals, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to keep them on their normal routine while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep fresh water available, make sure they’re fed on schedule, provide exercise and playtime appropriate for their energy level, and give them lots of love and attention. I’ll also keep your home clean, respect your space, and send regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Ashley took great care of our Golden Retriever, Roxie twice while we spent a long day away. Great updates from her and lots of love showered on Roxie. We had a super quick meet and greet beforehand which made everything go smoothly. Book her!!”

“Brook was an amazing dog walker, making my dog comfortable even when she can be a little defensive. They kept me updated in detail and was a great friend to my dog. I will definitely be using them again!”

About: I grew up with dogs and I love them! Currently,I have two small/medium doggies (both rescues) and we love to cuddle on the couch, go on walks and play in the yard. I would love to include your dog in our daily activities. My dogs are well socialized and love to play. My dogs are not currently crated in the house while I'm at work (I work from home often and if I need to leave, im not gone for long periods normally). Because of separation anxiety, I would request that any visiting dogs be crated while I'm out of the home, for their comfort and mine. Your dog will receive a minimum of one walk a day (in the morning or the evening) depending on the temperatures. I sit out on the back porch most evenings and the dogs love to run and play together in the back yard (fully fenced). I am often working from home (which means lots of trips to the backyard!) and both my husband and I are off on the weekends, so crate time is a minimum. When someone is home, dogs are left to roam freely in the home, including at night. Our pups sleep on their own beds or ours (depending on their mood) in our bedroom and yours would join the pack, if comfortable. If you would like me to come to your house, I can drop in as necessary. I would take your pup(s) on walks, if desired and temperatures are safe. I will feed and play with your pup(s) for the desired amount of time and give lots of belly scratches and loves. I can give oral medications or injections. All dogs would have outside time in the a.m. and p.m. as well as multiple times during the day. I am home often during the day, so not much crate time necessary and lots of backyard time. We have a fenced yard and our dogs love being outside. When temperatures allow, we spend alot of time outside and the door is left open for easy access back and forth.
About: I’ve had many dogs in my life and am 100% dogs. I spent many years volunteering with the labrador retriever rescue. I work from home 100% helping families with life insurance. Fenced yard & pool! I work from home full time. We have a couple walks a day, but have a fenced yard & in ground pool with a doodle layer 18 in deep. We’re fenced with a large goldendoodle gal that absolutely loves to play with other dogs! Dogs are allowed on furniture & allowed to exit the doggie door to play outside (if they know how)
“Melissa communicates quickly and always sends lots of pics. She is always timely for visits too! Its the best feeling, knowing my doggo is well taken care of when I am away.”

About: Hi my name is Mariah. I have always loved animals! I am full time in college to become a Veterinarian. I have my own pug and him being spoiled is an understatement. I also have a cat as well. He is just as spoiled. I am very flexible with times and areas. I work in Merritt Island, which is where I normally am but I live in Cocoa and can service anywhere in between. (Titusville, Port St. John, Cocoa, rockledge, Viera, depending on my location) Book me if you want someone to love your babies🤍 Pet care fits into my schedule because I have a lot of flexibility in between work and my college classes. Working around my schedule for your animals will make me happy. My pup runs the house and the cat is the head captain in charge. I take my pup all over and love to have his company. Mine are not in crates but if you need me to crate your babies just let me know.
About: I had a reactive dog for the last 18 years. I understand the quirks and behaviors of dogs very well. I will always listen to the owner's advice and not assume that I know best. I am currently unemployed, so this is my priority! I am available 24/7 until I am out of town for family obligations. I am excited to get some much-needed exercise with your pets. I was a helicopter mom with my dog. I took him to the vet pretty quickly. I will notice any change in your dog and notify you right away.
About: I’m a recent empty nester who grew up with a black Lab, a Collie mix, and a mutt. My favorite Siamese cat, Tiger, lived to 23. I have undergraduate degrees in biology and psychology from Seattle Pacific University and a masters in pharmacology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. My love of food science compels me to experiment with new recipes. My most recent forays involve bread-baking and candy making, so I offer these homemade goodies as an add-on service. Imagine coming home to contented pets, a clean kitchen and fresh baked sourdough bread. For house-sitting stays of 3+ nights you can opt in for a batch of sea salt caramels, with or without the Kentucky bourbon. • I am a ghost writer with flexible, remote hours. Having animals to tend gets me up from the computer at regular intervals. As a recent empty nester, I am available for multiple daily drop-in visits within my service area. • I grew up marveling at how animals interact with their environments in sensible ways. Like humans, they need to feel secure in order to follow commands consistently, let alone perform tricks.

About: I have owned a dog for 13 years. I have experience pet sitting that included loving and playing with them. I haven't met a cat or dog that didn't like me. I am looking to be more active so I am walking/playing with dogs to achieve that I only work 3 days a week so I have lots of time and flexibility to walk/ take care of your pet on your schedule! I live in a home, with a large yard for playing, and can take walks around my neighborhood. There are no children in the household and it is a very quiet and calm environment. I let my pets on the couch too for snuggles so they will be very cozy

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. I started by watching my aunt’s dogs when I was younger, and for the last couple of years I’ve also been walking and caring for my friends’ dogs. Im currently working a full time job at a restaurant so im only looking for something between 7:00am-2:30pm. On my days off though it does change! I’m happy to accommodate whatever your pup needs to feel safe and comfortable, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m great at following instructions and can help with any specific medications, exercises, or routines your pup may need.
About: I’ve always had a great love for animals! Growing up with three dogs and three cats taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve also helped bring displaced dogs from Puerto Rico to the mainland United States to find loving homes. Along with cats and dogs, I’m familiar with caring for other animals, including guinea pigs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes and enjoy providing walks, playtime, baths, and plenty of love and attention. I also have six years of experience as a nationally registered pharmacy technician, which taught me the importance of following medication instructions carefully and watching for potential side effects. Please share any medication or injection needs beforehand so we can discuss whether I can provide the appropriate care. I’m available Monday through Friday after 4:30 p.m., with early morning walks also possible, and all day and overnight on weekends. My husband and I coordinate our work schedules so your pet can receive more frequent attention and companionship. For boarding, pets are typically alone for no more than 4–6 hours at a time. We’ll confirm our schedules before booking to ensure we can meet your pet’s needs. I’m easy to reach and happy to follow your pet’s routine and specific care instructions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full time, but I make time before and after work for attentive care, playtime, and companionship. I’m flexible with pet sitting in your home and happy to discuss a schedule that fits your pet’s routine. For boarding, my husband and I coordinate our schedules so pets are typically alone for no more than 4–6 hours at a time. I’ll confirm availability and time away before each booking to make sure we’re a good fit for your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your care instructions and make sure doors are securely locked after arriving and leaving. During walks, I’ll keep your pet leashed and maintain a safe distance from unfamiliar animals. I’ll also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and surroundings to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Patty loves her walks. Jennifer stays aware of the heat. Patty is black pit and gets very hot certain times of the day, her needs don't always correspond at the optimum time. Jennifer stayed aware and made sure Patty didn't overheat. We have used Jennifer several times. Reliable and we highly recommend Jennifer.”

I treat all of my animals like family, and make sure that all of my animals are getting the best care possible. I am very hands on and safety is my biggest priority.

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 Cape Canaveral. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
