“I’ve rebooked Laura a few times now and she’s great! She communicates efficiently and is wonderful with our puppy Beau! She sends pictures and videos while she’s there which puts me at ease. I’m grateful for her help!”
“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!”
“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!!”

I’m responsive, easy to reach, and happy to send updates while you’re away so you always feel connected. 🐕🦺🐈 I have a flexible schedule and am generally available throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends.

“Brooke was great! My mother had passed away, on a Tuesday, funeral on Thursday ( was out of town), and Brooke was an angel to check up on the dogs on such short notice. Highly recommend Brooke.”
“Katherine did a great job taking care of my three cats. She did everything I asked and even sent me pictures of them. Her fee was very reasonable. I will use her to watch my cats again in the future if needed!”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“The cat sitter was impressively responsive, promptly addressing any inquiries or updates. Their quick communication added a reassuring layer to the pet-sitting experience.”
“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!!”
“This is the first time I’ve used a pet sitter instead of boarding my cat Cali as I felt she would be more comfortable in her own home. I came across the Rover website and booked a sitter close to my home. My cat has an automatic feeder for dry food as well as a water fountain. So, the only “services” I needed were to feed her wet food in the evening and clean the litter box. I met with my sitter, Amy, and explained how to access my home, where to dispose of litter etc. Amy did an excellent job and even went above and beyond to try and get a photo of Cali, who hides from strangers. Thai has been a great experience and I will definitely use Rover and Amy again.”
“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!”
“Abigail was great with our two cats! She gave us peace of mind while traveling and was even able to give our older cat her subcutaneous fluids while we were gone! She let us know how each visit went and sent pictures.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was younger. I am reliable to take care of your dogs like they are family! I work from home a full time job. I am off on the weekends. If your dog stays with me through out the day/week, they can go to the restroom whenever and get constant cuddles! I am willing to feed, play, and walk your dogs. We can always talk specifics and the dogs needs. I am very flexible and am willing to help.
About: I have several years of experience taking care of pets of all kinds. I had a rescue pitbull for 10 years who was my very best friend! He has since crossed the rainbow bridge and I currently do not have any pets of my own, so I am happy to spend time taking great care of other people’s furry friends! I work full time but have flexibility within my job to work from home on certain days. On weekends I am almost always available to provide your pet ample attention! I will treat your pet as if they were my own and do everything I can to make sure they are as happy and comfortable as possible while you are away. I will also take great care to respect any and all rules/guidelines established by the pet owner!
About: Hi! I’m someone who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like family. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I focus on making both pets and owners feel safe, relaxed, and cared for from day one. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs — including administering medications, working with reactive dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, positive environment where they feel secure and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime, or simply wants extra affection and attention, I tailor my care to fit their individual routine and personality. I’m confident reading body language and helping nervous or high-energy pets feel safe and understood. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also make it a priority to keep routines consistent to help reduce stress and make the experience as comfortable as possible for your pet. My goal is simple: to give your pet a loving, stress-free experience while giving you total peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I currently stay at home so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked — I make it a priority to give each animal personalized attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, and special care instructions to help your pet feel comfortable and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel secure and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. I treat every pet like family and always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and preferred sleeping arrangements.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Florence
Rachel did an amazing job taking care of my pets. She was on time with their visits and even stayed over extra to make sure they got extra care. All feedings and potty times went as scheduled. My dog Maisey is very shy and she even got her to cuddle and play with her! My cat hides and she even managed to get him out on the last day she visited my home. If your looking for someone to sit with a pet that is people shy should give her a try.
Thanks for everything this last week! You’ve been amazing. Thanks for all the pictures and the toys you left for them. You really didn’t have to do that but it’s much appreciated! I’m sure the toy truck was just a result of some anxiety from being left home alone. I hate leaving them home like that but having someone like you stop by sure helps. And it looks like Petey warmed up to you pretty well!
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 $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,223 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Florence. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
