“Wendy was fantastic - communicative, prompt, and so good with our dog. She followed instructions and doled out lots of attention and love. I highly recommend her and will request her services again (if she's still providing them).”
“Laura has been absolutely amazing with my dog. She does weekend check-ins and walks for us, and I genuinely couldn’t ask for anyone better. My dog can be a little more challenging than most, but Laura is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive with him. She really takes the time to understand his personality and needs instead of just going through the motions. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she works with, and that makes all the difference. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and dedicated. She goes above and beyond every time.”
“Tiarra is an absolutely fabulous Rover sitter! She checked in on our two pups twice while we were out on a day trip, and was communicative, professional, and friendly. We will continue booking with Tiarra whenever we need someone to watch our babies. Thank you!!”
“Brooke was great with my kitty. She came in daily for a week and I could tell Ravi was very comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Brooke to all! This was my first time using Rover and Brooke was very responsive which put me at ease.”
About: Danielle and I have had dogs our whole lives and absolutely love caring for them. We both grew up with dogs, so we’re very comfortable with their needs and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Danielle works a hybrid schedule, while I’m fully remote, so I’m home every day. We’re happy to work with your dog’s usual routine and schedule. We enjoy taking dogs on long walks in the morning and late afternoon, along with plenty of playtime throughout the day. We have a spacious 3-bedroom, first-floor apartment with plenty of room for a dog to feel comfortable. We also have a 1½-year-old son who loves animals, so your dog would be joining a loving family environment. We’re happy to accommodate dogs who need a little extra space or quiet time around our son. We usually walk around our neighborhood, but we also have a dog park in our apartment complex for extra exercise, socialization and play! Since I work from home, I’m with the dogs all day. Occasionally I go skateboarding in the afternoon for a couple hours, which is the longest the dogs would ever be home alone. We take Ori out twice a day and feed him in the morning and evening. Our home couldn’t be safer. Of course the door is always locked and we keep Ori on a leash the entire time that he’s outside. We make sure to keep any food or other things he shouldn’t get into off the floor and out of reach.
“Missy was so wonderful with my puppy Corbin! I had zero concerns leaving him in her hands. She was very communicative, followed directions, was respectful of my home, and was detailed in her updates. The photos she included in her updates were the highlight of my day! I could tell she really enjoyed her time with him and he was having fun and felt safe with her. Thank you so much, Missy!!!”
“This was our first time using Mattie to sit our 3 cats and it was the best experience! Mattie was extremely thorough with updates and went above and beyond with taking care of them. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our kitties while we were away!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’m incredibly impressed with Abby as a sitter! From the very first visit, she made sure my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. The updates were top-notch every time, with the cutest photos and thoughtful notes that gave me total peace of mind. My dog absolutely lights up when Abby arrives, which says everything. She clearly cares so much and is amazing with pets of all personalities. Communication is quick and smooth, scheduling is easy, and she is always reliable and professional. If you’re looking for someone kind, trustworthy, and truly dedicated to caring for your fur babies, Abby is the perfect choice. Your pet will be in the best hands! 🐾❤️”
“Kasey did a great job caring for our cats on short notice. We got plenty of updates, photos, etc, and the cats were so happy and relaxed when we got home. Would definitely have Kasey come again!”
“Leeann was incredibly sweet and took wonderful care of our pets. She was very responsive to messages, which we really appreciated! Our only suggestion would be to better utilize the Rover cards to track her visits. Overall, she did a great job, and we’d happily recommend her!”
“Payton is wonderful! Our dog can take a bit to warm up to people but he and Payton became fast friends which made the whole experience so easy. She took wonderful care with our boy and she went above and beyond playing with him and sending us updates!”
“Emily was such a great sitter for our 4 pups! She dropped in to visit them twice while we were away for the day and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She’s incredibly friendly, knowledgeable of dog behavior, and patient with our somewhat anxious puppies. We would definitely use her services again.”
“Abbie was excellent. She went above and beyond to make sure Koda was well taken care of. She set updates and pictures to keep me informed on how Koda was doing. I would definitely book with Abbie again!”
About: Growing up we always had dogs in our home. I have experience caring for both small, large, and giant breeds. I have a giant breed puppy of my own, which I adore. I walk my own dog and my parent's dogs everyday. I make sure they get all their energy out. A tired dog is a happy dog! I have a very flexible schedule at the moment. I take my own dog on walks everyday, always making sure I have time for his exercise needs. I am mainly available from 8-4pm but can take car of your dog in the evening too. I have a fenced in yard at my house your pet could play in. I have toys for fetch and other activities for mental stimulation. I have set up miniature 'courses' for my dogs to do in our yard like cones to weave in and out of and boxes to jump over. I am also used to walking multiple dogs at once, if you have several pets that need exercised! I always have water available for dogs during play time and after walks. I'm available almost every weekend. During the week I only have flexibility at lunch time. However, my husband works from home and we can always try to meet your schedule's needs. I have always loved animals! Growing up we had many different kinds. I have been on Rover for a years (taking some time off for school) but I have enjoyed getting to meet and take care of other's pets. I want to provide a safe and fun experience for each pet.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Florence is $20

Tiarra is an absolute blessing! I cannot say enough amazing things about Tiarra. This was my first time ever using Rover and my first time leaving my dog, KoKo, in the care of someone outside of the two family members who normally watch her. If they weren’t available, I would simply take her with me. Both of KoKo’s trainers had encouraged me to work on detaching a little more and allowing other people to care for her, so I decided this long weekend would be the perfect opportunity to try. The person I originally had arranged to watch KoKo cancelled on me the Sunday before I was leaving. By Monday, I was completely stressed because I was flying out Friday. My cousin had always recommended Rover, so I downloaded the app and came across Tiarra. From the moment I reached out, Tiarra was incredible. She was extremely responsive and immediately offered to come do a same day meet and greet with me and KoKo before I even booked. That meant so much to me because I was understandably nervous and wanted to make sure KoKo and I felt comfortable. When she came over, I walked her through KoKo’s routine, and she immediately put me at ease. She was professional, patient, open, receptive, and genuinely understanding of the fact that this was a completely new experience for both KoKo and me. She made the entire process feel so much easier. While I was away, her communication and daily check in notes were TOP NOTCH. Detailed, thorough, everything! She kept me updated, was incredibly responsive, and never made me feel concerned. She didn’t just come in, do what she needed to do, and leave either. She actually stayed for the full visit I paid for, took her time, and genuinely cared about KoKo. That speaks volumes about her character and the way she approaches her work. What impressed me most was her transparency, honesty, professionalism, and integrity. She was communicative throughout the entire process, receptive to adjustments, and truly made me feel like KoKo was in good hands. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was being cared for by someone I could trust. Tiarra completely exceeded my expectations. She took what started as a very stressful, last-minute situation and turned it into such a positive experience. My first experience with Rover could not have gone better because of Tiarra. I will absolutely be using Tiarra again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, communicative, professional, caring, attentive, and has genuine integrity. Tiarra, thank you for taking such wonderful care of my baby girl KoKo and for giving me peace of mind while I was away. You are truly a blessing, and I’m so grateful I found you! I couldn’t recommend her more!
Grace did a wonderful job! She was patient with my crank old boy. She came and took wonderful care of cosmo even when he wasnt the friendliest with her the firsr couple days. She remained calm and continued working with him until he fully warmed up to her. Grace continued to give me updates on how he was doing everyday and even noticed when he was acting a little different due to him having a mild reaction/ itching a lot due to treats that were provided and went out of her way to get new ones for him. I could not have asked for a better sitter to pop in on my boy.
One of my three cats needed medical attention during my absence and Payton got her promptly to the vet. Thanks to Payton, the cat's back to her "normal" self. She kept me well informed of what was happening and followed up with feedback from the vet and her own observations. Definitely giving Payton a solid 10, and I am about to book her again for my next trip.
Laura has been absolutely amazing with my dog. She does weekend check-ins and walks for us, and I genuinely couldn’t ask for anyone better. My dog can be a little more challenging than most, but Laura is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive with him. She really takes the time to understand his personality and needs instead of just going through the motions. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she works with, and that makes all the difference. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and dedicated. She goes above and beyond every time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Florence on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,118 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Florence. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Florence stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
