About: I’ve been passionately caring for and training dogs since I was 11 years old. I have hands-on experience with pups of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities—from large breeds like German Shepherds and Husky mixes to small companions like Malteses. Additionally, I have professional experience working as an Animal Care Specialist and volunteering for the Lee County Animal Shelter, so you can trust that your furry best friend is in safe, capable hands! I have a highly flexible, work-from-home schedule! Since my job is remote and my classes are online, I am available around the clock for care, playtime, and walks. This also means I can be very accommodating with your drop-off and pick-up times to make your trip as stress-free as possible. Safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. If your pup stays with me, they will spend most of their time indoors in a clean, pet-proofed environment, with plenty of access to a fully fenced backyard for supervised playtime and potty breaks. I have two incredibly friendly and well-trained dogs of my own—Shadow (5) and Koa, a 50-pound Husky mix (2), who make excellent playmates for dogs of all sizes. Thanks to my professional background working as an Animal Care Specialist, I am highly experienced in reading dog body language, managing safe introductions, and maintaining a secure, stress-free environment for every pet under my care.
About: I've rescued four senior dogs and have done a lot of work to rehabilitate them physically and mentally. (one dog in home currently) I would love to come walk your fur child if you can't get home from work on time or if you need an overnight care situation - I got you!

I know when I go out of town, I hope to find someone just like me to care for my babes. You can trust I'll spend the time and share the most love.

About: Before I became a human mama, I was a fur mama.. so therefore, I know how worried you can be when you’re gone all day or for a trip! It’s always reassuring to have someone who also loves animals care for your family. I’d love to give you that peace of mind and care for your fur kiddos! I had a gentle giant, Great Dane / Greater Swiss Mountain Dog fur baby, who was my world! We enjoyed beach days, walks, car rides to Starbucks, and especially naps. After he passed. I had human babies, but I still needed to have myself a fur baby. I am now lucky enough to have a wild child, Ramsey who is the sweetest, most gentle puppy. He is so full of joy & energy, and amazing with our 3 kids! I am lucky enough to make my own schedule, so I am extremely flexible. I balance my days out according to what’s on the agenda for that said day! We have a fenced in yard for our kids & fur baby, Rambo. They all love to play with dogs & get along great! We’d love another friend.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Golden Lakes
Hi!!! I recently moved to the area and was looking for a new dog walker for my one year old golden retriever with lots of energy, and Sydney has been amazing! I have done 30 min and hour walks, both have been great. She always keeps in mind the temp outside and will adjust where to walk or if going potty then getting energy out inside may be a bit better as the weather gets so hot! My dog isn’t used to it lol. My dog has a lot of commands to do everything and Sydney has been great using them. I trust her in my home when I’m not there which says a lot! Beyond that, I constantly schedule last minute as my work schedule is very unpredictable and Sydney is always upfront and does her best to accommodate or recommend a similar time if she is already booked. Thank you!!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Golden Lakes on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,196 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Golden Lakes. 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 Golden Lakes. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Golden Lakes.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Golden Lakes. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
