Very professional and 💯 kind to my animals and she is reliable.”

“I cannot say enough about Dawn. She is very kind. I have an active Australian shepherd/ lab mix and needed some help for several days while dealing with family issue out of home. Dawn took to Penny super quick and I loved the visit summary and pics. I am sure Penny misses her already but I will definitely contact her again when needed. 5+ stars!!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve helped care for pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years, including feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them attention while their owners are away. I’m patient, reliable, and love getting to know every pet’s personality. I’m currently working overnight so I’m usually free during the day, around noon would be perfect but I’m pretty flexible as far as letting your dog out or feeding your cat if needed! As a pet owner living in an apartment with my own dog, I understand how important it is for animals to get exercise, attention, and time outside instead of feeling cooped up indoors. I make it a priority to keep pets active, comfortable, and emotionally cared for through walks, playtime, and quality attention. I always want every animal in my care to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in whatever environment they’re in

About: I have experience taking care of care of the smallest, and most ferocious chihuahuas to the largest of lovable breeds like the purebred German shepherd. I know they all have their own unique personalities and such and that’s why it’s important for me to let them warm up to me at their own pace. I have just started to look for more work as a “professional” pet sitter, along with house sitting. I am still in the process of expanding my little side business! Honestly I try to spend as much time with them as possible, or for cats let them come to me. For me it’s about being patient with their wants such as walking or play time, and always making sure they are healthy and well fed.

About: I have a cat Liam who I care for and I help my family care for their cats and dogs as well. I have pet sit/house sit for 3 years now. I'm consistent with my check ups and walkings/feedings. I stick to a schedule all the time. I'm also always all over the areas from Venice to Riverview, I can always do drop by, a quick walk. I'm flexible with my schedule to fit your pets needs, and any last minute bookings! I'm currently working at 2 jobs and still have free time for your pets! I work as a house cleaner and receptionist, I love staying active and just hanging out with animals. My desk job gives me 3-5 hours of an extended break Thu-Sunday. Outside of that I am I clean homes and offices around the Venice, Sarasota, and Bradenton Area. My family and I have 3 cats, Liam, Munchkin, and Sunni. We also have a chihuahua mixed, shes our oldest. I keep our pets on a feeding schedule and in charge of food and keeping it stocked. I am very strick about their feeding schedule and food quality. Before I even became a cat parent I did extensive research just trying to find the best quality and affordable food, litter, toys. I've always wanted the best for them and treat them as an baby. Our cats also love the outdoors so I also walk them, harnessed or off but they well enough to stay close when we walk. I've also taught Liam a few tricks for treats (he'll do almost anything for treats).

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and pet sit for friends all the time! I love animals and love to hang out with them and keep them company! I’m currently working full-time at a coffee shop, but my hours are 6 AM–2 PM! This gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. After work, I’m available to stop by, take them for walks, feed them, and spend quality time playing and keeping them company. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my biggest priorities are their safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on your pets while I’m there. I’ll also give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, food, and fresh water as needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets and home are being cared for responsibly while you’re away.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She was absolutely wonderful! Always on time, incredibly reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was well cared for. Her communication was excellent, and I always felt confident knowing he was in such good hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Englewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Englewood is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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 1,375 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Englewood. 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.

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Englewood. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters 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 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.

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.
