“Thank you for agreeing to both lunch and dinner walks this Thursday and for giving Sophie her medicine too! It’s so nice to know she is well taken care of when we are at work. A few neighbors have also spontaneously commented how friendly you are and also great with our little Sophie dog.”
“Jaritza has been amazing with my requested dog walks. She always asks care questions to make sure that my dog is taken care while I’m away. She communicates quickly & she goes above and beyond even when not asked of her. Literally the best!”
About: i have many years of experience caring for animals from guinea pigs all the way to a Great Dane. I have been a veterinary assistant as well as a kennel technician and worked at the local pet store I have open availability currently as I only work on the weekends. I have my own pets that I care for as well as other clients through word of mouth/rover. My pets at my home are very well taken care of with a fenced yard. I would prefer to watch/care for your fur babies at your home as my outside dogs are not always friendly to new comers
About: I have been around all different kinds of dogs since I was young. I had gotten my first dog when I was in the first grade and have been in love with them ever since. I currently work from Home so I will be able to be attentive to all of your pets needs. Since I am always around I am able to walk your pets, feed them or play with them as much as needed. I have two friendly dogs that I’m sure your pets would get along great with. I have a fenced in backyard that they will be able to run around in. There are also plenty of toys for your pet to play with!
About: My wife and I have taken care of dogs of all breeds since we were young. From people we know to people who we do not. We have/had many different breeds of dogs. We love dogs. I am a teacher. If you request me, I will let you know as soon as I can if I am able to accept. I am available weekdays in the afternoons and later and weekends. During summers I am available most days. I use positive reinforcement techniques. I will make sure to follow your directions for your pets to a T. Safety is always the most important.
“This was my first time using Rover, but I was going to some theme parks for 2 days and brought my dogs with me from out of town. I knew I couldn't leave them for hours without a potty break, and I have to admit I was anxious since this is the first time using a service like this, but Carli was awesome the entire way through! I'm super grateful to have the option for someone to come walk my dogs and I'm super grateful Carli was so communicative and my dogs were taken care of! I'm coming back to use the rest of my park tickets, and I will definitely book her again. Thank you Carli!!”
About: For 2 years I’ve took care of my neighbors dogs by letting them out, feeding them and playing with them. I love animals and I grew up in a household filled with animals. I believe a dog is a humans best friend and I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your animal! I currently work nights at publix as a grocery stock clerk. I am very flexible and will be able to let your animals out and care for them whenever you need. I would love your trust to take care of them. I take my dog milo for a walk everyday when I get home so that way he gets most of his energy out and then he will lay down and relax for a little bit before wanting to play. I feed him twice a day and give him a bath once a week.
“Phoebe enjoyed her walkies! Sometimes she can be a little timid with new people but I could tell that she warmed up to Yamillex quickly by the pictures that she sent me during her visit ! Will be using her again!”
“Kayla was awesome! She was super flexible and took good care of our 2 boys. One had a small cut on his leg that bled a bit . She informed us, assisted in cleaning up the mess, and made sure that he was good for the night. We appreciate the extra effort and care! Definitely would book again!”

About: I had my own fur baby who passed a few years ago, but she was my sweet little thing. All animals have their own characteristics, but all of them are a big ole ball of fur with a big heart I am currently open all the time at any time. I am full time in college at Saint Leo University, and when I go back to school in August, and if schedules permit, I am open to making the drive! :) When watching over animals, I make sure not to take my eyes off of them. I don’t want them to feel stressed, so I do my best to make them as comfortable as possible. I’ll always go out of my way to make a fur baby happy
About: Hi! My name is Natalie and im 20 years old, I have 3 dogs, a cat, and 2 quaker parrots! Ive taken care of a multitude of animals ranging from, cats, dogs, and guinea pigs, for about 3 years now. I love being able to care and love an animal as if they were my own. Ive always loved animals and caring for them is the highlight of my day oftentimes. I would be happy to care for your baby, and make sure that when youre away your fur baby has no worries or anxieties that will make any future trips stressful for you, im available whenever you need me! Ive taken care of senior dogs before and am willing to follow whatever instructions to make sure theyre comfortable and happy, please entrust your animal in my hands! I work part time right now as a publix pharmacist but my schedule is fairly flexible, i have my own ways of getting there and am willing to do whatever youre comfortable with to make your animals as comfortable as possible. :) Whatever your pets need is what I will provide, I don't offer pet boarding. I would be happy to go to your house and stay whether it be for a few hours or days if thats what you’re comfortable with. I love seeing animals comfortable in their own spaces and will do everything in my power to make sure it doesn’t stress out your animal when i’m there.
About: I have 5 years experience in the animal field professionally. I have learned animal behavior and signs, I have learned patience and understanding, how to build a bond, and so much more. I am currently working 4 days a week. I have three days a week I can fit your pet care needs into schedule. I can also possibly schedule times around my job the other 4 days as I work a swing shift. I have two separate fences on my property and a secured dog room that leads to the year fencing area with AC, dog bed, access in and out, fan, access to water at all times inside with an automatic water bowl outside. I have a friendly, Neutered male Golden Retriever to keep them company if preferred, or there is plenty of space to keep them separate. None smoking and no small children. For your home visits, I would respect your space and rules as well as accommodate all your needs and request a n your home.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life; both personally and professionally. I even have hands on, daily experience with large breeds like Pit Bulls and German Shepherds as part of my own family, so I’m very comfortable with strong, intelligent, high energy dogs! I’m equally experienced with smaller breeds, including Corgis, Terriers, and other small companion dogs, and understand the unique personalities and care needs that come with them. I come from a family of specialized hoofstock and primate zookeepers, so animal care is quite literally in my DNA. Professionally, I’m a biology instructor from a science institute who has worked with a wide range of species, including raccoons, chinchillas, snakes, and kangaroo mice. From energetic mammals to more delicate or specialized animals, I’m confident, attentive, and knowledgeable in my approach to care. Above all, I genuinely love animals. Caring for them isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’m passionate about. I have the time, dedication, and enthusiasm to ensure your dog receives attentive, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. I dedicate my weeks entirely to pet care, offering flexible, reliable dog sitting anytime including holidays, weekends, and inclement weather for as long as needed. It’s not apart of my schedule, it IS my schedule. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, safe, and supervised environment. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, exercise, potty breaks, enrichment, and rest to mirror their normal schedule as closely as possible. Dogs receive structured walks, playtime, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection, never left unattended for long periods.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds and temperaments. I have vast experience walking multiple dogs at the same time and provide safe and effective strategies. I'm currently working full-time and have my own pets. I'm available mostly in the evenings and all day on weekends. 30minute walks with some fun will be provided to ensure your dog is happy. I can safely leash and walk your pups and care for your cats (if applicable). I provide fun experience for your furry friend and am capable of meeting their energy needs.
About: I work part time as a kennel attendant and bather. Wanting to get more into taking care of dogs and earn more to become a groomer. My schedule is slow right now and all over the place. 11:00-3:00 everyday Friday & Sunday 11:00Am- 11:00pm - I don’t have set days on when I work but I’ll know a week - a month in advance when I’ll be working. With my current job I also walk and feed boarding dogs and know when and how they are fed I make sure they have water and that the tv is turned on to keep them calm. I have some experience with making sure these puppers are taken care of
“This is our first time using Rover and Makayla was fantastic. Our pups took to her immediately! She is wonderful with them- engaged them in play, took them for a walk and spoiled them with treats. Makayla is conscientious, responsible and friendly. We are grateful to have found her and highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,483 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lacoochee. 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 Lacoochee. 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 Lacoochee.
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 Lacoochee. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
