About: 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understanding their different needs, personalities, and behaviors. I have volunteered at the Miami-Dade Animal Services Pet Adoption and Protection Center, where I helped care for animals and gained experience providing patience, attention, and support to pets in need. 🐶 ❤️ I enjoy creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet I care for, treating them with the same kindness and attention I give my own pets. I’m passionate about making every furry friend feel happy, loved, and cared for! 🐕✨ 🐾 I’m available on weekends and on weekday afternoons when I’m not working. I attend school in the mornings, so my availability may vary depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during their stay. 🐶✨ 🏡 I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I have experience helping dogs adjust to new routines and environments, including adopting my own dog Lana after fostering her. 🐶 🐾 I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I focus on patience, supervision, playtime, and lots of affection to make every furry friend feel at home. ❤️

About: I’ve been around and cared for animals for most of my life. In high school, I was part of the Veterinary Science Magnet Program at Felix Varela, where I earned my CVA certification and studied veterinary science and animal care. I also spent around three years training dogs through the program. During my senior year, I completed an internship at a veterinary clinic, where I got about two years of hands-on experience working as a vet tech. I fostered throughout high school and for a while after, which gave me experience caring for pets with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I have experience with pets of all different sizes and ages and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, basic training, and of course giving them plenty of attention and love. Having pets of my own, I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of them. I currently work part-time and am also in school, but I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and other care depending on what you and your pet need. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and any instructions provided by their owner. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications, leash safety, doors and gates, and any behavioral or medical concerns. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, and I make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I've always had a special love for animals! Throughout high school, I worked at a dog grooming salon, where I gained hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, I've also been the go-to person for family and friends whenever they need someone they trust to care for their pets. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your furry family member with the same love, patience, and attention you would. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away! I'm responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! 🐾💕 I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate to caring for your furry family members! Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I'm happy to work around their routine and individual needs. I genuinely love spending time with animals and enjoy making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I'm available throughout the week and on weekends, and I'm always happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! 🐾 I've always said that in another life, I would've gone to veterinary school because my love for animals runs so deep! My own dog, Hazel, is truly my baby, and I treat her like family. Our days are filled with playtime, training sessions with treats, outdoor exercise, walks to explore new scents, car rides, cuddles, and even the occasional doggy ice cream date! I also love making little dog-themed crafts and finding creative ways to keep her happy and engaged. I believe every pet deserves that same level of love, patience, and attention. When caring for your furry family member, I'll always prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual routine. I'll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and make sure your pet receives plenty of affection, enrichment, and exercise suited to their needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being cared for like one of my own. 🐾💕

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been one of my greatest joys! I’m a proud dog mom of two wonderful dogs, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and was always the one in my family caring for them. I currently have two sweet boys of my own, both 8 years old. Growing up, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian; a reflection of just how much I’ve always cared for animals, but life had other plans and I proudly joined the service, where I’ve been serving for 13 years. Being in a new city away from family can get lonely, and I can’t think of a better way to feel at home than spending time with furry companions. I’d love the opportunity to provide your pets with the same care, love, and attention I give my own. Weekends work best for me when it comes to pet care since I work throughout the week. That said, I can still accommodate weekday care for emergencies or last-minute needs. I’ll just need to adjust my schedule. I try to stay as flexible as possible so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m very attentive to my dogs and I take the same approach with every pet I care for. I know each animal has their own unique habits and personality, so please let me know anything special about your pet. I’ll make sure to keep their routine consistent. My dogs are small, so I take them on multiple short walks throughout the day to keep them happy and exercised. At home, they stay in a gated area in my bedroom while I’m at work, and at night they sleep with me. If you’d prefer your pet to sleep freely, I’m happy to allow that, but if your pet is crate-trained and you’d like me to maintain that routine, I completely understand. My goal is always to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and cared for the same way you would.

About: Currently grieving my fur baby Wilfred and looking to pet sit to feel some light again without commitment. My family is made up of very well known veterinarians in Nicaragua. Our bloodline has always provided animal care for different pets such as horses, chickens , geese, cats , goats and cows. We are a family that loves animals and will be excited to take care of yours ! I work a hybrid job and share sitting with my partner which makes caretaking easier and safer for everyone involved. I grew up with always having a dog at each point in my life, so I am well aware of all the responsibilities needed to maintain a healthy, safe and happy pup! I have a fenced yard , a nearby park , and no pets as my dog passed May 14 2026 . I am at home with my boyfriend and a roommate in the garage that is a long time friend of my parents. My boyfriend works from home and loves animals. My roommate has a farm of his own and has taken care of animals plus is a dog enthusiastic. My parents approve and support my decisions as a dog care giver and assist me as well.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 13. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, kittens, and even hamsters! I have a dog named Marley and a cat named Kitty (very creative, I know). I’ve volunteered at the Miami-Dade animal shelter and I am currently fostering a cat and her four kittens. As of right now, I am on summer break until August 25 so my schedule is flexible. Just reach out so we can find a day and time that works best for both of us. Keeping your fur baby safe and comfortable is a top priority for me. I recognize that each pet’s needs are different and I am willing to communicate with pet parents to ensure those needs are met.

About: I'm an animal lover who has had two dogs and three cats as pets over the past 25 years. Currently, we (me, my wife and our 14-year-old son) have one indoor/outdoor cat. Since I work from home full time and set my own schedule, I am in a position to care for, watch and entertain your animal in my home while you are away. I take my lead from you, the pet owner, and will tailor my care for your animal in whatever way that will make you feel the most comfortable. I will only book one dog per day for boarding or doggy daycare so that I can focus solely on your pet and make sure that they are happy, healthy, comfortable, exercised and well taken care of. I'd be happy to take a second dog from the same home, however, so that animals in the same family can stay together.

About: I’ve been a dog owner all my life and I’ve also taken care of many other pets in my home and theirs while their families were traveling or working. I can also help with daily exercise and walks, baths, and some basic training. I have a flexible schedule and I love spending time with animals. I am very active and would love to help you take care of your pets. I own two dogs, one Australian shepherd and one Newfie mix. I live in a townhome with a small fenced patio for their entertainment but I will also walk your dogs two to three times a day or as requested while they are boarding with me. If your dogs are not dog friendly, I can separate mine so they don’t have to interact with each other. In your home, I’m open to following the routine you do with your babies.

The weekends are free for me. I live in a pet-loving home, so there is no stress having a guest over! Dogs can be in their cage or if it is more comfortable to be without a cage that is perfectly fine as well. I also have the option of boarding or day care without my dogs.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fontainebleau

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Fontainebleau is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $31 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,105 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fontainebleau. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 your Fontainebleau. 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 , 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 Fontainebleau 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fontainebleau. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
