About: I've had a variety of pets growing up but always love being around dogs. I don't mind cats. I have two pit bull mixes of my own right now wish I had the money and space to adopt more. I feel dogs need to be walked as much as possible and I would like to be the guy you can rely on to walk an important part of your family. Just like the dog in your life I can be just as loyal and always willing to please you the owner. I am available to walk your dog/dogs any day of the week with adequate notice. I don’t walk any dog past 8pm at night sorry I am a loving and respectful dog owner and caregiver of my own dogs and I will be the same way for you pets and home.
“We are repeat customers for daytime dog walks. Liz is reliable, timely and communicates well. Our pup seems to really love her and even our ultra shy cat, too. Thanks for the snapshots and updates about your walks, Liz!”
“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!”
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
“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 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.

About: I have taking care of my own pets, friends and family for 5 years. I have experienced with puppies and their high energy levels to seniors who just want to chill and relax. Also, I have experienced with pets with anxiety, dogs and cats who just have surgery and are in need of recovery. I can administer their medications, give them their food,water and treats. I can chill on the couch, play, run, go in walks and give them full attention. I love every dog and cat and I treat them with the love and respect they deserve and as if they are were my own. I also feed my dog raw food so I am very comfortable with measuring and handling raw food. My schedule is flexible since I work part time from home and I have full control of my schedule so I can fit in your furry babies needs I have a fenced in yard so my dogs can freely roam around and use the bathroom. I also have two crates with beds and blankets to keep them nice and comfortable. I have a feeding schedule, I give a treat in the morning, some little healthy snacks in the afternoon and I serve dinner at 6pm. I take my dogs out to potty and we go on a walk in the afternoon or we do some running around in the yard or in the back. I try to keep the dogs calm and happy as much as I can.
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!

I work part time right now as a publix pharmacy technician, and im also a college student, but my schedule is fairly flexible. I only have classes Monday-Wednesday and its only in the morning. I have my own ways of getting there and am willing to do whatever you’re comfortable with to make your animals as comfortable as possible. If I need to request off work, I just ask I have at least a 3 weeks’ notice. Other than that, I would stop by on my lunch breaks, before and after work, and if you need me to stay overnight, I’d be happy to! 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.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I helped my childhood dog deliver all 9 of her puppies, cared for them, and helped find each of them a loving home. I’ve also dog sat a variety of breeds and ages, including senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve had Journey, my own dog, for 8 years, so I’m very comfortable with the everyday responsibility, attention, and love dogs need. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m a stay-at-home mom to a toddler, so I have a flexible schedule and am home often. I’m able to work walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting into my routine while giving each pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m happy to do my very best to work with different schedules and routines to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I take pet safety seriously and treat every dog like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal routine and their owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific behaviors or boundaries to be aware of. I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure, keep dogs supervised, and don’t leave them with anything they shouldn’t have access to. I also keep a clean, comfortable environment and give pets plenty of attention and exercise appropriate for their age and energy level. Whether your dog is staying with me in my home or I’m caring for them during drop-ins at your home, my goal is for them to be safe, happy, and genuinely well cared for.
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
About: I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind throughout your trip. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they get the attention they deserve. I’m also patient with puppies who are still learning routines and gentle with senior dogs who may need extra care, slower walks, or medication reminders. My goal is for both you and your dog to have a stress-free, positive experience from start to finish. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs. I plan my schedule to ensure every pet gets plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and bathroom breaks on time. I don’t believe in just stopping by—I make sure each dog feels comfortable, cared for, and gets quality interaction. I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime, make sure they always have fresh water, and keep doors, gates, and leashes secure to prevent accidents or escapes. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel loved and cared for, while making the experience as worry-free as possible for you.
“Ashley did a Mah-velous job! She took the extra time to make sure that Holly and I were comfortable and relaxed during two meet an greats. She exceeded my expectations in every way.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and went to school to train them. I’ve dog (and puppy) sat for neighbors and friends. I have two pups of my own so your fur baby will have friends to play with. They’re both super sweet, so you won’t have to worry about your baby being bullied. I supervise all playtime, especially outside. If you want/need to have a crate for yours, please bring it so I can absolutely accommodate. Your baby will be loved as my own. 🖤 There will always be playtime inside and outside depending on the weather. I can send you pictures during your baby’s stay with updates of how everything is going. 🥰 I work from home so I am always around to supervise and there are cameras around the house to keep an eye if we have to step out. 🙂 I have plenty of toys they can play with, and you can bring their favorite ones as well. If I’m stopping by your house, I’ll make sure everything is as you left it and follow any and all instructions you have left. 😊
“We absolutely love Brittany! She has been taking care of our sweet fur babes for over two years now and they absolutely love her!!! She is so attentive to their needs and is has been such a blessing to us! I highly recommend her for any of your fur children’s needs:)”

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.
