About: My family has had dogs since before I was born! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and know how to take care of fur babies of all ages :) Almost four years ago I adopted my first cat. Fast forward to today, I am now a mother of two orange special needs kitties. They are my world 🌎 ❤️🐾 I currently work part time and go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On school days, class starts at 9 and I will have an hour and a half between classes to let a pet out to go to the bathroom, feed them, or give them medication. Then I have another class from 1-3. After that, I will be totally free to assist any pets. I also work part time 3-4 days when I do not have school. These are usually 6-8 hour shifts, but I can adjust feedings/walking/medication administration around these times. And when in doubt, I have several well regarded Rover friends that are willing to help out on my longer shifts, with client approval. :-) I have space to keep a crate for overnight visits and live in an apartment complex with some green space to walk and explore. I am also only a few minutes away from five different parks, so lots of options to check out. I have two cats that are dog friendly, but can be separated if the dog is not cat friendly !
About: I absolutely love pets and will do my best to make them comfortable in my care! I consider pets to be family, and I will treat yours as u do my own. I am currently a stay at home mom who has a lot of free time during the daytime hours while my child is in school. I would be a great fit for daily walks or drop ins! I will treat your home with the same respect as if it were my own. I will leave it as it was when I am complete on my care session.
About: I've pet sit for my neighbors when they go out of town. I treat their pets as if there my own. I ask numerous questions about the pet in question in order to properly care for the pet. I'm also very observant and cautious when it comes to a pets safety I'm currently unemployed trying to start a etsy and ebay store as well as a youtube channel. I'm also helping take care of my 97 year old aunt. my schedule is quite open. I love animals and they bring me great joy. hoping to make a little money and some new friends whether they are human or four legged. my parents never allowed me to have a pet so when our neighbors went out of time I jumped at the chance of watching their pets, I treated them with love and care as if they were my own.
About: Your dog’s stay with me is designed to feel safe, predictable, and enriching so that it’s the perfect balance of comfort and stimulation. I run a structured boarding routine every day so pups know what to expect and owners feel confident about the care their dog is receiving. Daily Routine Includes: • Morning potty break & breakfast to start the day calmly and consistently • Indoor play and relaxation time to ease into the morning • Midday enrichment such as yard play, puzzle feeders, snuffle mats, and frozen Kongs • Afternoon quiet time for rest and decompression (dogs nap in crates or gated rooms with soft music and a frozen Kong) • Evening potty break & dinner followed by light play • Evening enrichment session with backyard time, training games, or cuddles • Daily photo update sent between 7–9pm so you can see how your pup is doing • Final potty break before bedtime • Late-night safety check to ensure everyone is settled and comfortable On weekends, when more hands are available, dogs enjoy extra outdoor play, supervised group time, and longer enrichment blocks. Every pup also goes home with a seasonal bandana as a fun, personalized touch to celebrate their stay. My goal is to provide a boarding experience that feels structured, safe, and full of love; exactly the kind of care I’d want for my own pets. I keep a steady rhythm throughout the day so dogs always know what comes next. Care is spaced out intentionally with time for activity, rest, enrichment, and evening wind‑down. This predictable flow helps dogs settle in quickly, reduces stress, and ensures every pup gets consistent attention from morning through late‑night safety checks. If your dog has specific routines at home, I’m happy to mirror them so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. Your dog’s comfort and safety come first in my home. I maintain a clean, supervised environment with secure spaces for rest, structured play, and enrichment. Dogs are monitored during transitions, given individualized attention, and separated when needed to keep interactions positive. I use crates or gated areas for decompression, follow owner instructions closely, and make sure every pup has fresh water, safe enrichment, and a calm place to relax. My goal is to create a space where dogs feel protected, understood, and genuinely cared for.
“Kassandra was great to work with and took great care of our dogs! She was on time, communicative and shared lots of photos. She even made sure their water bowls were topped off before heading out. Highly recommend!”

“Suzanna was awesome! We have 3 dogs all of which are pretty high maintenance but one is extremely high maintenance due to be a senior. She did everything we asked and was so sweet and extremely responsive. We will use her again and are so happy to have found her.”
“Audrey has been amazing to our pups! She is always communicative, flexible, and happy to help us. 10/10 recommend to anyone who is looking for someone to trust with their fur babies.”

About: I have spent over 4 years volunteering at animal shelters with both dogs and cats. I have also grown up with both dogs and cats - primarily small breeds.

The weekends are when I am most free, and prefer afternoons/evenings. I can be flexible if you reach our! I will check on your pet(s)' food and water supply in addition to making sure they use the facilities. I enjoy brushing pets as well!
About: I've housesat and taken care of dogs for friends and family members since I was a kid. I've been told I have an energy that animals really respond to. I can no longer have a pet of my own, and I miss my dog every day, I just want to be around dogs again, and help out pet parents. I just opened a bar on my own so it is practically impossible for me to have a dog full time, but my schedule is also flexible enough where I could make sure to give a lot of attention to a dog on a part time basis. I am happy to watch a dog at your home or mine, I have a fenced yard and plenty of parks and trails nearby to walk around.

I will care for your animal in your home, however you need me to! Feeding, walking, playtime and whatever else is needed for your pet in your home!
About: I have had pets for my whole life. Most of my friends called my house a "zoo" growing up because of the wide range of animals we had around the house, from puppies to snakes to pigs- we had it all. When caring for another animal, I treat it like it were my own. I always saw my pets as an extension of my own family and want to treat all animals the same way. I am currently home from college right now, so I am flexible. I have 3 pets of my own who I take care of, other than that I am free. It depends on the pet and their individual needs. I have a dog, but he is extremely active and loves being outdoors, so letting him out every hour or couple minutes is important for him. Whereas, another dog may not enjoy. being outside as much or have certain medical needs that prevents them from running. I love cuddling up on the couch with my pets (dog and two cats), and giving them affection. I also enjoy spending time with them by getting them active and playing their favorite games/ toys.
About: I’ve had a dog since I can remember. Right now I have two Irish wolf hound mutts and a mountain kurr that I love dearly. I used to live on a ranch working with animals in Montana as well. So if you need basic training. I can get er done! I currently work full time, but where I work also always me to make time for what your needs would be. I work at a dog daycare place. I have a nice privacy fence with a ok sized yard. I have two Irish wolf hounds that are kinda older but still play a lot!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Florence
Kaitlynn’s help was truly incredible. My older, very particular female dog fell in love with Kaitlynn. She gave her undivided attention, followed her orders 🙃 and build a connection with her. Dependable, fast to communicate and treated Kam as if she were her own. Very grateful!
We've been working with Olivia for the past three weeks, and she has consistently done a wonderful job providing weekly walks for our dog. Olivia is responsible, always shows up on time, and ensures our dog gets his full 30-minute walk. She is very reliable! Thanks Olivia!
Chloe is above and beyond amazing! My pup can be a bit intimidating when you first meet her but Chloe was very patient, kind, and friendly. She was always right on time and always communicated with us about how our pretty pup was doing. I would recommend her to any pet at any time! Thank you Chloe!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Florence is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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.

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 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 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 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 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 Florence. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
