About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every pet like family. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, even over nights all while giving lots of love while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so it’s easier for me to naturally fit pet care into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so I can give pets the attention they deserve—whether that’s morning and evening walks, feeding times, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m used to building my day around making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I keep a clean, safe environment and always watch for any changes in behavior or needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I also respect their space and follow any specific instructions they provide so their pet feels secure in their familiar environment.

About: I've cared for animals my entire life and truly love them like family. Growing up, I helped my neighbor with Operation Catnip, where we trapped, rescued, and rehabilitated feral cats and dogs. I assisted with feeding, bathing, walking, giving medication, changing litter—whatever the animals needed. Over time, I started my own small pet care business for friends and family, and I also volunteered at my hometown's local animal shelter. I've fostered animals over the years as well, so I'm experienced with pets that need extra patience and care. Whether you're looking for someone to care for a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet who needs gentleness and routine—I treat every animal like they're my own. If you want someone who genuinely loves animals and has hands-on experience, I’m the sitter for you! Pet care is a big part of my everyday life, and I have a very flexible schedule to support it! I'm available on weekends, holidays, and evenings, which makes it easy to accommodate your pet’s routine—whether it's a late-night potty break, an early morning walk, or holiday coverage when you're out of town. I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and cared for no matter the time of day. You can count on me for dependable and attentive care whenever you need it! When I care for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your pet’s regular routine—feeding schedules, walk times, play, medication, and any special instructions. I'm experienced with administering medications, managing crate time, and keeping things clean and organized. For dogs, I offer safe, enjoyable walks based on their energy and comfort level. I’m also experienced with crate-trained dogs, senior pets who need a slower pace, and anxious pups who need extra patience and calm. For cats, I provide gentle, attentive care—cleaning litter, keeping feeding areas tidy, and respecting their space or snuggle needs depending on their personality. I'm also comfortable caring for multiple pets and making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s a quick walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, your pets will be loved, safe, and treated like family every time.

About: For the past 12 years, I have been training dogs and managing doggie daycares. My main focus over the past 5 years has been getting deeper into the training community, working for local organizations and shelters training service dogs for veterans and opening my dog training company, Palms and Paws Dog Training, LLC. I also have experience in insulin injections and medication in both dogs and cats. My schedule is currently wide open and very flexible! I am able to do new drop in visits, walks and boarding both in my home and at your home. I am married to my wife and currently live in an apartment on the second floor. I have a 14 year old male cat and a 12 German shepherd that get along great. I have done board and trains in the past where dogs came to my home to train so I am familiar with crating and rotating and understand the importance of daily walks and enrichment. I have worked at and managed multiple boarding facilities and am very familiar with all dogs needs both inside and outside of the home as well as their physical, emotional and mental needs. I am equally as passionate about cats and am more than happy to take the time they need to build trust.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for my own German Shepherd, along with my Goldendoodle. Through owning and caring for large, high-energy dogs, I've developed a strong understanding of the exercise, structure, patience, and attention they need to thrive. I'm also a Rover customer myself. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and communicative when leaving your pets in someone else's care. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I have experience with large dog breeds, high-energy dogs, puppies, and multi-dog households. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications and following specific care instructions to help maintain your pet's normal routine. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care during walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting stays. My goal is always to make your pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to getting to know your furry family members! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As I currently work from home and I’m an dog owner, I'm used to structuring my day around walks, exercise, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing consistent care and attention. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, consistency, and making your pet feel comfortable while you're away. I take the time to learn your pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions, so they can maintain the structure they're used to. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and home. I treat every home with respect, keep pets securely leashed or contained as instructed, and pay close attention to their behavior and well-being. I'm experienced with large and high-energy dogs and understand the importance of safe handling, exercise, and supervision. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can stay informed and have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for both you and your pets to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for throughout the entire visit or stay.

About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I bring a calm, confident, and loving approach to every pet I meet. Big dogs don’t scare me—in fact, I adore them—and my background as a vet tech in an emergency clinic means I’m comfortable handling medical needs, including administering medications. I truly love all animals, and I talk to every dog, cat, or critter as if they were my own. Your pets will be in patient, capable, and genuinely caring hands with me. I can work from anywhere and I set my own hours so I'm available for any schedule that you and your pets need, even if it's just a visit. In your home, I care for your pets just like my own. Our cat sleeps with us, Tank is on the floor on my side is the bed. I talk to them like they're my best friends. 😊

About: Howdy! I’m a EMT student trying to incorporate my love for animals in with keeping in shape for my next career. I’ve lived and worked on farmland all my life — I’m not phased by aggressive *livestock*, much less a reactive dog! I spend a lot of my time currently training dogs for people in need, and working with shelters to help their nervous dogs develop some adoptable skills. I’ve also been volunteering with disabled animals (wildlife and domestic alike) since I was in middle school, in rehab facilities and as a home foster, and I’m very accustomed to delivering meds to all the most resistant patients. They’re a part of my daily function — they eat when I eat, I don’t go for runs without them, and if I’m going to any pet-friendly store they can behave in, they’re already in the car. My pets and any others in my care are not only my first priority in terms of safety, but in fun! My career and lifestyle has had me naturally trained in pet aggression and reactivity, including muzzles and muzzle training, crate training, heavy leash pulling etc.

About: Hi there — I'm a lifelong dog lover based in Daytona Beach, FL, with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through rescue, fostering, and my own home. I'd love to be the person your pup looks forward to seeing. Personal Experience I've shared my home with dogs continuously since 2017, so daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and all the little quirks of dog ownership are second nature to me. Rescue and Volunteer Experience • Dog walker at Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge — walking shelter dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. • Dog walker at Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta — comfortable handling large and giant breeds with confidence and calm leash control. • Foster for Bernese Mountain Dog Rescue — providing in-home care, daily exercise, and a safe transition for dogs awaiting adoption. • Foster transport coordinator for Golden Retriever Rescue of Mid-Florida — organizing safe, low-stress transport for dogs on their way to forever homes. What I Bring to Every Walk and Visit • A calm, patient approach with anxious, shy, or high-energy dogs • Strong leash skills and awareness of canine body language • Reliable, on-time arrivals and clear communication with owners • Photo and video updates so you can see your dog enjoying their day • Comfort handling puppies, seniors, and dogs with medical or behavioral needs I am available seven days a week — mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Flexible scheduling for one-time walks, regular routines, or last-minute requests. I treat every dog like my own — whether that means a brisk adventure walk, a sniff-filled stroll, or simply quiet company and a belly rub. Your dog's safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities.

FAQs for Dog Walking - East Palatka

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,166 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across East Palatka. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

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

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in East Palatka after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Palatka. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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.
