About: I’ve had dogs and cats as pets since I was born! I have experience taking care of neighbor’s pets overnight, and love going for long walks with furry friends. I’m currently training for a 10k, so if your puppy likes to run, I’m happy to take them along with me! I have experience with both large and small dogs, and currently have four large dogs in my family home that I grew up with. I have experience in giving medications to senior dogs, as well as providing comfort care. I also have experience caring for rabbits, as I had one as a pet for 8 years. I currently work as a graduate student at FSU, and have plenty of time during the day to spend with your fur babies! I am also available all day on weekends, including Fridays, for pets that prefer someone constantly home. I love going for long walks around Tallahassee, so dogs with lots of energy would fit perfectly with that. I also enjoy lounging around and taking short strolls if your pet is more low-energy. I can crate a dog if necessary, and am not stranger to animals with strange dietary needs (my own dogs are extremely picky eaters). I have experience giving medications to dogs, cats, and rabbits as well.
About: In my childhood I had many cats and I have now had a dog for almost 8 years! I started dog sitting about 3 years ago for my neighbors and I really enjoy it. I have taken care of their dogs while they were on vacation and have also dropped in while they were working. I have been around pets my whole life and I love them! I love going on walks and playing with them and am very passionate about animal care. I currently work part time at a bakery but my schedule is pretty flexible around that. I do school mostly online so work is the only time I wouldn’t be with the pet! I occasionally work in afternoons, sometimes in the mornings. Contact me and I can work a shcedule out for you! I am very diligent about following instructions for your pet and I am respectful of both your space and the pet! I am also very diligent about safety and will do my best to keep an eye on your pet the whole time. I will clean any messes that may be made and check locks before leaving every time. I always make it a habit to check for food, water, any potential messes, and locks every visit.
About: I have been taking care of dogs, cats and even horses since the age of 9. From drop ins, dog walking, overnights and even puppy classes I have worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have potty trained, crate trained, and taught basic commands to both puppy and adult dogs. I have cared for senior dogs and have experience giving meds and care for post surgery/medical procedure. From the time I was a child I have loved being trusted to care for neighbors and friends animals while they were away. No animal is off limits as I love them all! I look forward to meeting and working with you and yours! I am currently staying at home while my husband works so my schedule is very open. Every day of the week is a possibility for drop ins or overnight care. I live in a home with plenty of space to crate your baby if they stay the night, ensuring their safety and ours. I currently own a 75lb goldendoodle who loves playing with other dogs. My neighborhood is incredibly dog friendly and is lined on a paved circle perfect for walking dogs. I usually do an AM and PM walk to allow dogs to potty, along with intermittently taking them out throughout the day. Most play time happens inside where there is a much lower risk of escape or overheating.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. Family, friends, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m patient, reliable, and always make sure every pet feels safe and happy. I love making sure pets get all the attention, walks, and playtime they need while their owners are away. I dedicate all my time for your pet. My home is pet safe, clean, and comfortable, so your fur baby will feel right at home. I can crate dogs if needed and always provide supervised outdoor time, lots of cuddles, and constant care to make sure every pet feels safe and loved.
About: I have had dogs my entire life! I have experience taking care of high energy puppies and slower elderly pups. I’m happy to help with food, walks, meds and more! I work from home and make my own schedule. With enough notice I can block off my calendar to play and walk with your fur baby. I’m happy to follow all the rules for your home. From creat to free roam. I’m happy to pick up any messes you little guy may create and treat your space with respect.
About: I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience, but I do have experience taking care of my own pets. I have a standard poodle and a cat, so I’m used to feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up after them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m patient and attentive, and I know every pet has their own personality and routine & I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets and give them plenty of attention while you’re away. I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m able to work pet care into my daily routine. I can usually be available for walks, check ins, feeding, and spending time with pets throughout the day. I’m also good at sticking to a pet’s normal routine and making sure they get the attention they need. I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable environment and that they have everything they need. I’ll follow the owner’s instructions and keep up with their normal feeding, walking, and bathroom routine. I’m also careful about doors, gates, and anything they could get into, and I’ll keep the owner updated while they’re away.
About: Hi there! My name is Rachel & my fiancé and I recently relocated to Tallahassee for his new job. I am currently in the process of studying for my Florida Teaching Certification. My love for teaching young children and education is something I pride myself on. At the moment, I am nannying for a family in the Tallahassee area! For the entirety of my life, I have been around dogs. My family has had two miniature pinschers and a Jack Russel. I have dog sat for families with Golden Doodles, Australian Shepards, Golden Retrievers, Daschaunds - the list goes on! I am open to staying the night to watch dogs while their owners are away, coming to walk dogs during the day or even just keeping them company when need be. I would love to learn more about how I can provide help with watching your dogs in the future. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I'm relocating to Tallahassee at the end of July and will be job hunting, which means I'll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or just giving them extra attention and companionship, I'll make sure they receive the care they deserve. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I love providing owners with peace of mind while they're away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. I do my best to stick to your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. That includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and, of course, plenty of love and attention. I'll also keep your home tidy, clean up after your pet, and send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing they're happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet!
About: Dogs have always been a passion of mine. I find joy in being able to care for another being - especially dogs. I just recently fostered a 10 week old puppy this year, he has now found his furever home. Am comfortable with every dog! ❤️ I have a pretty laid back job that will allow me to leave when needed to walk/take care of dogs etc. Mostly available for long walkings at night I am easy to learn your specific schedules and practices with your dogs. I understand that there are certain ways people like their home and animals to collaborate.
About: I trained my own dogs for 4-h for the three years. I also work for a doggie daycare and boarding place for a year. I love all dogs. I'm a graduate student at FSU. I can walk dogs and check up on dogs. I do have a flexible schedule and I can find a time that works best. I love my dogs like they are my family and I do spoil them a lot. I love training them and doing anything I can with them.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for the last 8 years, on and off. Neighbors, friends from school, and family have trusted me to take care of their furry friends, and I'm excited to start using Rover! I specialize in dog walking, feeding, pet sitting, and lots of playtime! I'm a junior at Florida State University, with a flexible school schedule. I have availability on days where I don't have classes to tend to your pet care needs! I live in a smoke free, clean 2x2 apartment. I care for pets in my home by making sure they are safe from any dangerous objects, feeding consistently at a certain schedule, and making sure pets are monitored.
About: I’ve had a dog of my own for a good majority of my life. I believe that animals can be just as affected by schedule as a human. With that being said, whatever schedule or specific requests and wishes you have id be happy to follow. I want to keep your pet as happy and comfortable as possible. I have a lot of empty time on my hands. I’m not currently in college and I work one job where the hours are minimal. I would only do as I am told I am allowed. If your pet is on a certain diet I don’t want to give them something they aren’t allowed to have. I am used to walking big dogs so if that’s something you’re worried about, don’t be. If am unsure I will ask to ensure I do not harm your babies. I had a dog for a very long time growing up and I absolutely adored her. I’ve also had a few other dogs as well. Sadly the place I live at currently I’m not allowed to have pets, so I thought why not enjoy pets without the consequence. I would love to care for your furry friends and keep their tails wagging ☺️.
“Thank You SOOOO much Lacy!!! 💕 You are a Life 💕 Saver and Niko and Parrish 😺🐈 love you soooo much! We are grateful 🙏 to have you in their lives and ours! Sorry about the last minute family emergencies. Again, thanks for being so wonderful! ☺️ ~ Jennifer and William”
About: I trained canine assistance dogs for 9 months and have over 25 years of experience. I’m very good with all types and personalities when it comes to our furry companions Working on switching my career path right now since there is a shift to corporate medicine in animal hospitals and as support staff I lost the feeling of being supported, or properly compensated myself. I recently started watching my neice from 6-4 Monday through Friday. Sometimes I will do delivery driving at night, but only if that is ok with you! I also have my medical marijuana card. Despite that review that says I agreed not to, I have never negotiated this. I’m an anxious, insomniac with cyclical vomiting syndrome. Some days I would not be ok without it🥺 I apologize if that does not work for anybody, but one must take care of themselves before they can care for others. This actually isn’t lucrative enough with my schedule. I ONLY do this because animals are my passion!!! Feel free to ask me any questions at all! I really am an open book! I have a 3/3 townhouse set up with lots of room for walks. Unfortunately there is no fence, but it is a very pet friendly environment.
About: I’ve taking care of pets since I was a child, always love to meet new pets and get their personalities. I love walking dogs and playing with cats.

About: I’m a college student who misses her dogs from home (two Havanese Ollie and and Frankie) I would love to foster in the future and I do well with all dogs!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Capitola
She was absolutely amazing! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and really cares about them. She was incredibly detail-oriented with all of my pet care instructions. She even came over a few days before the booking to go through everything with me, and then came back again the day before I left just to make sure she had everything right. She took photos and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, she gave my fur baby so much love and attention when I couldn’t be there. I’m so grateful to have found her! From now on, whenever I travel, I know I can leave home without worrying. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
