“This was our first time using someone who wasn't family watch our puppies while we were away snd katie made us feel so confident that they were well taken care of! She was very communicative and the dogs had a blast with her! We will definitely be using her again for our next trip.”

About: I’ve had all types of animals growing up from fishes, turtles, cats, and dogs so I have plenty experience in caring for them. Family has trusted me to groom, feed, and walk their fur babies multiple times. I hope you can trust me to do the same! I’m currently only working, so I have plenty of time to be with your furbaby! I’m available on weekends at any time and on weekdays at anytime! I have a fenced yard with two dogs who are little and mighty and two cats who are very shy but friendly once they are comfortable!

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.
About: I’ve been taking care of neighbors, friends, and family dogs since I was a teen. I love giving them lots of attention. I’ve taken care of a wide variety of dogs from one who was blind and deaf and was very snuggly, to caring for 6 dogs for a 2 night stay for someone’s wedding. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or cozy cuddles on the couch, I provide loving, reliable care tailored to your dog’s needs. Your dog’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! I will gladly meet up beforehand to make sure you and your dog are comfortable and happy. I have a soft spot for pitbulls and have had multiple rescues throughout my life. Available before 5:30am and after 3pm. Whether they need a brisk walk, some play time, or just some company while you are away I’ll be there to help. Clear instructions work best for me and my top priority is your dogs safety and happiness. Please let me know what works best for your dog and how you like them to be cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my life. I have experience caring for dogs big and small, of various temperaments. I also have additional experience via my volunteer work at a local animal shelter. I’m currently working part time with flex hours so I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and excercise that he/she needs I live near a significant walking path! Perfect for walking and socializing pets! There is also a nearby dog park! Your pet will have the opportunity for plenty of exercise, socialization and enrichment.
“Katia was an excellent sitter for Gianni who is 15 years old. She was punctual, and very considerate of details about his routine based off post it notes and our initial meeting in person. If she had any questions, she asked, Katia also stayed longer at times to comfort him. Katia sent daily pictures on her visits along with updates. So I knew he was in great hands and gave me comfort while on my trip. Highly recommend Katia and will be using her in the future for Gianni.”

I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet sitting. During our meet and greet, I ask plenty of questions so I can follow your instructions as closely as possible. I’ll make sure your home remains secure, clean, and respected while you’re away. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing, and I’ll always communicate anything that seems unusual.

About: I’m looking for extra income and I figured what better way than to do something I love and enjoy, caring for and playing with fur babies!

I will follow all of the owners instructions, be patient and kind with your pet, and make them as happy and comfortable as possible! I look forward to helping with the care of your special fur baby! For now I am only offering drop ins and walks but plan to offer boarding at a later time. I’m open to meet and greets if that is something that would make the process more comfortable for both the owner and pet.

“Oz was absolutely amazing with our girl Kaia while we were away for a long weekend! She took such great care of her, and I could tell right away that Kaia was in the best hands. I’ve been in the animal industry for over 20 years, so I’m definitely very particular about who I trust with my pets. Oz was everything I could have hoped for in a sitter. She was caring, attentive, trustworthy, and just genuinely wonderful with Kaia. We will 100% be saving Oz as our go-to sitter for all of our future trips. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur babies. Thank you so much again, Oz, for loving our girl and taking such great care of her! 🐾💜”

“Kara was wonderful. She had a very good, positive attitude and was very willing to do anything that I needed done. Kara was also very quick to respond anytime I sent her a message. I will request her to take care of my cats again.”

“Nicole did a great job checking in and feeding our cats. She provided us with pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nicole for taking care of our cats.”

About: I have been dog sitting and walking for friends and family personally since I was a teenager. I have one dog friendly 8 year old Cairn Terrier of my own named Carson at home and a big back yard for the dogs to play in. I have experience walking dogs anywhere from small to giant breeds and am comfortable with a pup that can be excited on a leash. I'm a very active individual I love taking both my dogs on long walks and hikes and would love to do the same with your dogs! I work a hybrid schedule. My calendar and availability is updated based on my work schedule. I’m home all day Mondays and Fridays and can be on weekends. I have a friendly dog that gets crated at night for bed. I have dog gates and can easily separate the dogs if needed. We have a large fenced in backyard and we live in a large development for walking.
“From the 1st meet and greet I knew that lisa was going to be a great fit. Teardrop connected with her from the start Lisa took great care of him and kept me updated with every visit. I would definitely recommend her and she will be my permanent go to anytime I need teardrop taken care of!”

About: I have training from working at best friends pet hotel! I also take care of family and friends animals whenever they need. I have 3 years of experience working there and have my own dog I take care of. Hi, I’m Morgan! A little bit about me — I’m a huge animal lover, and dogs definitely have a special place in my heart. I’ve always been the person who gets way too excited when I see a dog, wants to know their name, and will probably stop whatever I’m doing just to say hi. I love how every dog has their own personality, whether they’re completely crazy and full of energy, a giant baby who thinks they belong in your lap, or the shy one who just needs a little extra patience and love. I’ve always believed dogs are family, and I have a pretty big soft spot for them. Outside of work, I’m someone who likes staying active and keeping myself busy. I enjoy running and going to the gym, and I like having something to work toward and challenge myself with. I also love spending time with the people and animals I care about, being outside, and finding little things to do when I’m not working. I’m definitely a creative person too, which is one of the things I love most about piercing. I enjoy helping people find something that fits their personality and style and being part of the process from choosing the jewelry to seeing the finished piercing. I want people to feel comfortable around me and never feel like they have to be nervous or embarrassed to ask questions. At the end of the day, I’m just someone who puts a lot of heart into the things I care about. I love what I do, I love animals, I love staying active, and I’m always trying to learn, grow, and become better at the things that are important to me. I’m really grateful for everyone who supports me, trusts me, and follows along with what I’m doing. And if you know me, you already know there’s probably going to be a dog somewhere in the conversation. In-Client Home Pet Care: When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions to the letter. This includes maintaining feeding routines, administering medications, daily walks or exercise, and offering companionship throughout the day. I also handle basic household tasks like bringing in the mail, watering plants, or rotating lights if needed, so the home looks lived in and secure.

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! 🐾🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 7,602 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Florence. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters 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 sitter.
