“Alyssa is terrific with our fur babies! Alyssa is great at communicating when she’s on her way and sending great pictures and updates after her visit with our babies! They love Alyssa coming over too!”
About: I used to work at boarding/doggy daycare facility for two years so I have experience with walking dogs, properly taking care of them, and keeping them safe and clean! I miss working work animals and I’m excited to start again! I do work a full time job, but i do have off every other weekend and am available every day during the week between 8am and 2pm. I would love for my clients to tell me about their fur baby, ex. Any behavior or things their baby may or may not like and their home, ex. If they have a fenced in yard or not. All of this or any information is helpful so I know how to best keep your baby safe!
“Victoria did a great job checking in on Mellow. She was very communicative and we were glad to see Mellow was well taken care of. We’d be happy to contact Victoria again to watch Mellow in the future”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and developed a genuine love for animals from an early age. I have sat and taken care of friends’ and families' pets over the years. While in high school my mother and I fostered dogs while they waited to be adopted. In addition, I spent 2.5 years working at a locally owned pet store, where I gained hands-on experience with pet care, behavior, and nutrition. I am widely available during the week besides scheduled appointments, errands, and housework. I have reliable transportation and keep an organized schedule so there is no overlap. Each animal should feel safe in their home while their owner is away, so I work calmly and patiently to earn their trust through my actions. Your dog should know I am there for their well-being, including all the good things like snuggling, playing, and tail wags. I treat each client's home with the kindness and respect I would want in return if the roles were reversed. I follow all instructions and information provided to the best of my ability, and your dog will receive plenty of love in the process.
About: i have been watching dogs since i was 16 friends, family, and church family members have relied and trusted in me to watch their pets. I work part-time, so I’m free for the most part. I’m happy to fit pet care into my schedule! I’m currently attending college in TN, but I’m from NJ. Sept.-Dec. and Jan.-May, I will be in TN. I don’t take pets in my home, but I’m totally happy to stay in yours! I stick to their routine, make sure they get lots of love, walks, playtime, and keep everything clean and comfy.
“Regina is absolutely amazing. Our dog Boomer adores her, and it’s clear he feels completely comfortable and happy in her care. She even accepted a last‑minute appointment the day before, which we appreciated so much. She’s reliable, follows every instruction to the letter, and gives him the long, happy walks he loves. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in great hands. We’re so grateful to have someone we can trust in our home when we’re away.”
“This was my first time using Morgan for a drop in visit with my dog. She was easy to work with and kept good communication. I would recommend her and plan on using her services in the future.”
“Jess is amazing. She is always on time and I know when I return home that my pets have been loved and well taken care of. Thanks Jess for all you do to care for Peanut and Salem. :)”
About: I’ve had experience with animals since I was a child. I dedicate a lot of time playing with my own dog, feeding her, walking her, and just making sure she feels loved and cared for. As a proud owner of a sweet little Shih Tzu, I know how important gentle, attentive care is. Since I can't host pets at my house, I dedicate 100% of my time and focus to keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable right in their own home! I’m currently a student looking for part time work so I have a good amount of time on my hands. I’m free on weekdays and some weekends. As a student, pet sitting is the perfect fit because it allows me to build my schedule entirely around your pet's specific needs! I follow the schedule and routine that is given to me or the one that best suits your pet and stick to that as pets thrive when there is a predictable routine.
“Cecily was very helpful when I was out of town. She took great care of my cats, sent me photos and kept me updated. I would definitely recommend her services and plan to book with her again in the future.”
About: I raised a very difficult samoyed puppy and I have been entrusted with the care of many friends pets throughout the years. I truly care about animals and I will do my best to make sure you and your pets are comfortable and happy! I am a teacher who is off for the summer so my schedule is fairly flexible until the school year begins! I look forward to collaborating with you on when I am needed. I will closely follow your detailed directions to take care of your pet and your home in a way that works for you and your pet.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to help them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, and lots of attention. As a nursing student, I’m responsible, patient, detail-oriented, and committed to following instructions carefully. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule and make time to provide reliable, attentive pet care. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends with advance notice. I’ll make sure your pet stays on their normal routine and gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special care your pet needs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and loved while maintaining their usual routine. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I have one fur baby at home to keep your pet or pets company and have a big backyard they can be free and play in.
About: I’ve cared for all animals since I was 10. My own, family and friends! I’ve had dogs, rabbits, lizards, cats, you name it! I can’t wait to get to know and treat your fur babies as my own! I currently work M-F until 4pm, I can do walks and drop ins any time after those hours, or any time at all on the weekends! I can ensure your pets safety whether that be on walks or in your own home! Noticing signs of distress is something I always check for to make sure your animal will be as comfortable as possible.
About: I grew up having tons of pets including cats dogs etc. I went to high-school majoring in agriculture where I focused on animal science . I just have a natural love for nature and animals. I am currently home full time so I have plenty of flexibility to work with your schedule and give your pet extra care and attention. I have a large fenced in yard so we can run and play in. I do live with one mixed husky who's very friendly and up to Date with his shots. Your pet would be need to be able to get along with other animals and 2 toddlers as well.
About: What sets me apart is my background in veterinary medicine and animal care. I have over five years of experience working with animals and currently work as a Veterinary Assistant and Customer Service Representative at an animal hospital. I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors and those requiring medications or extra attention. My experience allows me to recognize changes in behavior, monitor for potential health concerns, and provide attentive, compassionate care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine due to having a structured schedule that allows me to reliably plan around animal care. I work Monday through Friday from 3–9 PM and Saturdays from 8 AM–1 PM, which leaves me available in the mornings, evenings, and Sundays for consistent pet visits, feeding, walks, and check-ins. I’m very organized with scheduling, allowing me to ensure each pet receives care on time and maintains their normal routine. In my client’s home, I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided, and I pay close attention to each pet’s normal behaviors so I can quickly notice any changes in appetite, mood, or energy. Creating a calm, familiar environment by respecting the pet’s space and allowing them to interact on their own terms is my priority, especially for more shy or anxious animals. Communication is important to me when it comes to my own animals, so I provide updates to owners so they feel confident their pet is being well cared for while they’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Florence
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing experience with Sydney and couldn't be happier with the care our two dogs received! From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely love animals and take great pride in providing exceptional care. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. Both dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and it was obvious they received plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Managing two dogs can be a challenge, but she handled everything wonderfully and treated our pups as if they were her own. We came home to two happy, relaxed dogs, which says it all. We highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and trustworthy sitter. We will absolutely book with her again in the future! 🐾🐾❤️
Niara was a lifesaver today with Wyatt when I was scheduled for a last minute visit in NY. Very prompt with the walk times, super friendly & understood by “dog-mom anxiety” of making sure Wyatt’s favorite show was put back on until I got home. I’ll definitely be reaching out again. Thank you so much!

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 .

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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
