About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and giving pets lots of love and attention while their owners are away. I’m a stay-at-home mom looking to earn a little extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy, and I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and trustworthy caring for a member of your family. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m home throughout most of the day. This gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a completely fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play, get some fresh air, and have plenty of room to move around. I’m happy to follow any feeding instructions, routines, walking preferences, or household rules you have in place. I’ll provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’m always happy to send photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Shanna is the Dog Whisperer. Our dog Molly LOVES her and knows the day Shanna comes is different from the others. I tell her in the morning, "It's Shannaday!!" and Molly smiles and wags her tail with a frenzy. THAT is what makes Shanna special and why we value her and consider her a friend. As a dog walker and sitter, she has taken the time to get to know the quirks of our dog, work with her at our request to help with things that make Molly anxious on walks. Shanna has never failed to arrive or let us know of her whereabouts and she is totally committed not ony to our dog, but to all dogs under her care and the dog community in Montgomery County as a whole. Shanna is a passionate dog advocate and she's the one you want caring for your dog. Our Molly wanted to weigh in and let you know that Mondays are "Shannaday!" so please celebrate with a smile!”
About: I've cared for animals my whole life. 18 y/o I bought my first Rottweiler. then found a puppy in the trash at a circle k. Bear and Cisco were the first puppies i trained. Next i bred rotties for 6 years. 7 litters later i was a pro,lol. I am now retired at 49 y/o and love animals more than ever. I'd love to meet your pet! my schedule is very flexible. willing to accommodate all needs with proper communication and scheduling. I have reliable transportation for our pets and drive very cautiously. my 3 y/o black labrador, Chase, is an outside only dog now. He is happy and healthy. Walked daily, cleaned up after and has fresh water all day long.
About: I have over 10 years of hands on animal care experience, including 4 years in the veterinary field. I graduated from SUNY Delhi in 2018 as a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT), which allows me to confidently care for dogs with a wide range of needs. I am home full time, so your dog will receive consistent supervision, attention, and care in a calm, structured environment. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I am home full time. This allows me to offer a flexible schedule and provide attentive care throughout the day, including short notice bookings when available. Pets stay in our home on four spacious acres. I am home full-time, so I’m able to provide plenty of supervision, attention, fresh air, and potty breaks throughout the day. Our property is not currently fully fenced, so all dogs are safely leashed with me when outside. We are also in the process of planning a dedicated fenced dog area where visiting pups will eventually be able to enjoy additional outdoor time safely. We have two friendly, social dogs of our own, so visiting pets must be comfortable around other dogs.
“Alison was quick to respond and worked with me well to find a mutually acceptable time to pick up Willowe. Willowe got in some nice long walks. Alison also thought of ways to leave Willowe comfortable when she dropped her off at home”
“Simone was friendly and communicated quickly on a last minute booking. She walked our golden retriever for an hour around our neighborhood and got him very tired, which is exactly what we wanted. She sent a couple of pictures of the walk too. We would definitely call Simone again in the future. 😊”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, & fish for friends and family for over 30 years. I am also currently fostering for Arizona Humane. I am available any time and day for pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking. I am also available for regular and or drop-in visits. I have a fenced yard & kennel for dogs and cats. I am also available to come to your home for walks, plays & feedings.
“Cris is an angel of a person, radiating positivity and care! She walked my three dogs every day for nearly two weeks and was absolutely exceptional. Her communication was outstanding—she kept me informed of every detail, ensuring I always knew how my pups were doing. What truly sets her apart is her awareness and caution. She was incredibly mindful of the environment, actively avoiding areas where off-leash dogs were roaming to keep mine safe. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and has the biggest heart. I am astounded by her level of care and attention. She went above and beyond in every way, and I trust her completely with my dogs. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own, look no further. Highly recommend!”
About: I’m a 20-year old college student who has been around all types of dogs since the day I was born. I have experience walking and caring for 90lb+ dogs. I can do basic pet wound care, and identify different breed temperament pretty well. I currently own 3 dogs. The oldest is Capitan, he is a 80lb German Shepard that’s half husky. The middle one is my personal dog Ella that’s medium sized Siberian Husky. And finally we have big teddy bear Julio who we kept after Ella had her first and only litter of puppies. I also have experience caring for cats as I used to own three beautiful lady cats a couple of years ago. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I’m currently working part-time and have a very flexible schedule! I’m always open to take new walks/drop-ins clients. And I open my house-sitter schedule regularly. I am very experienced in different breed temperament. Every pet is different and I will do anything in my power to keep your doggie safe and well taken cared of.
About: With nearly 9 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide loving, attentive, and routine-based care for both dogs and cats! I have cared for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs-including administering medications, post-surgery support, and special diets. I take time to build trust with each pet at their pace, especially those who are shy, anxious, or new to a caregiver/walker. I am calm in emergencies and proactive with communication-whether that meant safely rushing a dog to the vet in an emergency or nursing my rescue cat back to health after temporary blindness. Pet parents trust me for my reliability, detailed updates, and genuine love for animals. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always comes first! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently taking a break from teaching elementary school this year to focus on other passions, which allows me to be fully present and flexible for the pets I care for. I have the time and availability to maintain consistent routines, accommodate midday, walks, extended visits, and last-minute needs, and give each pet the attention they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and this season allows me to prioritize it fully. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any household preferences. I take time to build trust with each pet, move at their comfort level and provide calm, loving attention – especially for pets that may feel anxious when their owners are away. I keep homes clean and secure, provide regular updates with photos and notes, and always prioritize safety. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed in their own environment, and for owners to feel complete peace of mind while they’re away.

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.

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.
