“Izzy was a warm and consummate professional and kept me updated about my dogs every time she came. She was great with them and even found a creative way to administer one of them their medication when he wasn’t taking it. I really appreciate hwr help keeping my puppies taken care of over the new year and would instantly hire her again.”

“We ended up having to book last minute and Emma came through for us and our babies! She set up a meet and greet with us to make sure our dogs got a chance to meet her prior to our trip. She kept us updated daily and sent photos as well! We will definitely will be booking again in the future! She is great and we highly recommend!”

About: My wife and I have 3 animals at home - 1 dog and 2 cats. Our dog is a senior with low energy, and our cats are curious and friendly. We’re no strangers to medication and we understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their routines. We’ve also taken care of animals for more than 25 years. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. We’d love to get to know you and your fur babies! My wife also works from home & has the ability to take your animals for walks daily. We also have a fenced in backyard which allows for ample playtime for your animal. I am all about communication and comfort. You will always know how your animal is doing and they will always be safe. I’m available to drop-in or to take care of your animal at our house. We are very loving and love to snuggle with all animals too. We have everything your animal will need at our house already. Treats, toys, and beds are provided. We understand if your animal prefers their own bed however.

About: I'm a lifelong resident of Seminole County, a mom of two human children, a registered nurse and animal mom to 2 rescue dogs and some pet chickens. I've always loved animals from a very young age. In fact I was determined to become a veterinarian until I realized you don't just get to love on animals all day. So I became a human nurse instead but I am still passionate about all animals and would love to provide extra pets and love to your four-legged family members. I have flexible hours so whenever you need me chances are I'm available. I'm very comfortable giving medications if needed. As a military spouse who's moved a lot in the past I understand how hard it is to leave your pets with a stranger. I'll never forget the Christmas I trusted a local petsitter with my dogs and she called me at the airport and told me she couldn't do it for the rest of the week. I vowed that I would always be a reliable and honest pet sitter and never let others feel that feeling of helplessness I felt while traveling away from my pets. We recently lost our 135lb rescued Afghanistan war dog so no dog is too big, no cat is too small! I even have experience with small mammals and reptiles such as lizards, snakes and turtles. Please reach out to me with any questions and I can't wait to meet your furbabies! My hours are currently very flexible with nursing. I'm available most days so my hours are free to spend time with your sweet fur babies. I'm willing and able to follow instructions on how you would like your furbaby cared for. Care is taken when walking your dogs and their safety is top priority. I make sure I have all important information in case of emergencies.

About: With over 7+ years of dog experience with my own dog back in my hometown, I also currently dog sit for various family friends. I have always been the biggest animal person anywhere from dogs and cats to guinea pigs and bunnies! I have tons of experience with medical administration, along with handling special needs animals. I have all my classes online currently this semester so Sunday mornings I am typically unavailable for only a couple hours but do become available past noon and am free the rest of the week usually at my home doing my studies. I typically do 4 walks a day unless otherwise instructed along with a feed once in the morning and another late afternoon dinner. Coming back from walks I always wipe off paws with vet approved dog wipes. I like to always ensure the routine I typically go with will work with the client and all their specific needs. Nonetheless, any and every doggie I come across gets all the love and cuddles from me!

About: I’ve taken care of family and roommate pets over the last year and a half. I have one pet of my own I have raised since a puppy. I am a compassionate and kind animal lover that enjoys providing pets with enriching experiences. I am a full-time graduate student, but have availability to take care of pets all day on Tuesdays, and Thursday- Sunday. I am flexible for daily and weekly pet routines. I provide fun and enriching experiences for my own dog, and family dogs I have watched. I am comfortable crating, feeding, and reinforcing basic training commands for pets. I love taking dogs on long walks to enrich their lives through smell and exercise.

About: I've pretty much always been an animal person. Growing up around dogs made caring for animals second nature, and over the years I've had the pleasure of looking after all kinds of furry (and occasionally feathered) friends. I've spent plenty of time babysitting dogs, especially the big personalities and big paws! Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, German Shepherds — I love them all. I'm comfortable around larger breeds and understand that every dog has their own personality, quirks, and routines. I'm also a huge cat lover (as you can probably tell from the collection of cat photos on my profile 😂). And yes, I've even taken care of chickens, so I'd say my animal experience is pretty well-rounded. I do pet sitting because I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I love getting to know their personalities, keeping them company, and making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their humans are away. Whether your pet wants to play, go on adventures, get belly rubs, or simply have someone nearby while they nap, I'm happy to be their person! I'm a freelancer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week! I'm happy to accommodate weekday and weekend walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and keeping your pets company while you're away. I do have a senior dog at home, so I focus on providing care in your pet's own environment rather than offering boarding or overnight stays. I love getting to spend time with animals and I am happy to work around their routines! 🐾 I tailor my care to each pet's personality and routine! I'm a freelancer with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and absolutely love cats, too! I always arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand to get to know your pet, understand their needs, and make sure we're a good fit. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! 🐾

“Jessica watched my two dogs over a long weekend and it went great. My dogs immediately loved her when she came by for the meet and greet before my trip, which made me feel a lot better. Jessica sent lots of pictures and she even got my dogs to go outside and use the bathroom during a rain storm! This was my first time having someone come by and watch the dogs instead of boarding them and it went great, I will definitely book Jessica again when I need to go out of town.”

About: With over 30 years of experience in pet care, I have a deep-rooted passion for handling large and dominant breeds. Growing up with an Argentinian Dogo kennel in Spain and later in Puerto Rico, I was raised around powerful breeds like Dogo Argentinos and Rhodesian Ridgebacks. Throughout my life, I’ve also cared for Bulldogs, Labradors, and currently own an American Staffordshire Terrier. I also provide expert care for trained German Shepherds. My extensive experience ensures that your beloved pet will receive confident, compassionate, and knowledgeable care. As a part-time actor and martial artist in Florida, and a part-time Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor, I have a flexible schedule that allows me ample time to provide personalized care for your pups. I’m dedicated to spending quality time with them, whether it’s visiting their home or taking them for walks. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for your dog by maintaining open communication and respecting your home’s routines. With over 30 years of experience with various dog breeds, I build trust through patience, consistency, and genuine care. Whether walking your dog or spending time at your home, I ensure that your pet feels secure and loved.

It was such a relief knowing he was in his own environment and being well-cared for. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Goldenrod

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Goldenrod is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $22 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 November 2026, there are 5,223 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Goldenrod. 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 Goldenrod. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Goldenrod 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 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 Goldenrod. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers 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 walker.
