About: I’m an experienced and reliable pet caregiver with a lifelong background caring for animals of all shapes and sizes, so I’m very comfortable handling multiple pets, different temperaments, and unique care needs. I also have several years of veterinary experience, which means I’m confident administering medications, monitoring health, and providing safe, attentive care. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime or calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Currently I am a college student and I work at barktown part time when school is in and full time when school is out. So I do maintain a busy schedule, but always have time to stop in and love on your sweet fur babies! I have been around pets with a wide range of temperament. This means I know how to enter and exit your home safely if you have a fur baby who likes to run, I wake up daily at 6am to give my babies their breakfast and they get their dinner at 8pm. This also sets me up to be able to adapt to your feeding schedule for your babies. I also adore getting to know the anxious babies. Taking my time and letting them warm up to me is something I pride myself on. Theres something so rewarding about gaining their trust!

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for our senior Pit Bull through the end of his life while he was battling heartworms. I helped make sure he was comfortable, cared for, and received plenty of love and attention during his senior years. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and paying close attention to an animal’s individual needs. I’ll treat every pet in my care like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently pursuing my own LLC so I will have plenty of time for your pups! My business if professional organization, if you are needing some help please don’t hesitate to ask. For dog walks, I’ll make sure each dog gets a safe, enjoyable walk that fits their energy level and routine. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and any special needs. For overnight care in the client’s home, I’ll keep your pet on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, cuddles, and plenty of companionship. I’ll also make sure your home is kept clean and cared for while I’m there. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.

I have owned and cared for Irish Setters, Golden Retrievers and English Shepherd mix. I have sat for dogs and horses of friends and family. I have experience working at an Equestrian farm as a ranch hand. I am available during the week for all of your pets needs. Whether that be a hike along the trail, walking downtown, grooming/vet appointment, or just a lazy day at the house. My weekend may be limited. Given advance notice I could be available for weekend services. Currently, I do not own any dogs. Pets will board indoors. I will provide care according to your specifications and pets needs. Your pets will be walked daily for poddy and exercise breaks.

About: I love all animals like they are my own. Your animals will be in the best care possible while you are enjoying your away time. I work from home so watching your animals would be my pleasure. I love sitting around enjoying time with my animals while I work so why not include others. I have friendly dogs of my own that love company and I live out in the country on 5 acres. My dogs love showing off their space.

As of October 2026, there are 75 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Florence. 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 Florence. 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 , 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 Florence 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 , 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 .

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

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 .

walkers 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 walker.
