“I wish I could give 10 stars! Paula was absolutely the best dog sitter ever! Dependable, caring, dedicated and just the nicest person! I can’t even express my gratitude for her helping me out so I could be with my family I had not seen in 3 years. My dog loved her. Thank you Paula.”
“She was great in keeping Pumpkin fed and was able to accommodate some extra stays when we had a delay in flights, which we really appreciated! Shelley is very nice and attentive, with good communication as well.”
About: For over 15 years, I have provided comprehensive, high-quality care for both dogs and cats. My experience ranges from high-energy playtime to specialized senior care and positive reinforcement training. I pride myself on creating a safe, structured, and joyful environment for every pet. What I Offer- Medical & Senior Care: Confident in administering oral medications and skin topicals, as well as managing specialized routines for aging pets. Positive Training: Skilled in teaching basic manners, tricks, and reinforcing good behavior using force-free methods. Play & Enrichment: Expert at reading animal body language to deliver the perfect balance of physical exercise and mental stimulation. Feline Expertise: Experienced in managing cat behavior, specialized diets, and giving space to timid or anxious felines. Whether your pet needs basic puppy training, gentle elder care, or just a fun day of structured play, I adapt my approach to their unique personality. Because my work schedule varies week-to-week, I am highly adaptable and can often accommodate non-traditional times, last-minute requests, and mid-day visits that standard 9-to-5 sitters cannot. I manage my calendar tightly to ensure that when your pet is booked, they get my 100% undivided attention, medical care, and training focus. As a seasoned pet professional specializing in medical administration and behavioral training, I look at safety through a clinical and preventative lens. I do not just watch your pet; I actively monitor their health, behavior, and physical surroundings to prevent accidents before they happen. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing an expert is at the helm.
About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience with dogs. I’ve been around dogs since I was two years old and have spent years caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve personally owned both large and small breeds, trained all of my own dogs, and developed a strong understanding of canine behavior, body language, and individualized care. I’m also experienced with proper nutrition and feeding routines, including specialized diets and raw feeding, and I know how important it is to follow each dog’s routine exactly. I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing safe, reliable, and personalized care so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Currently I am not working so I have complete flexibility to fit your needs for your pup even if that is last minute. I provide quick responses and open communication. As of now I cannot offer daycare or boarding in my home but I always treat my clients home as I would treat my own with the upmost respect and care for their property. I will be as diligent and detailed as possible when entering your home and caring for your pet.
“Jacoby did great with my River. He was super attentive and communicative. River can be shy but she warmed up to Jacoby quickly. And I received lots of updates. Will definitely be booking Jacoby for the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. Everything from rat terriers and Shitzus to Great Danes, labs. I have experience administering medications topical, pills and injections! Our home includes lots of games and mental simulation and puzzles! Currently working part time I am available in the afternoons after 12 Thursday- Monday! I can do times outside of that if needed ur just depends on my availability at that time! My complex has a dog park nearby and I have my own puppy who is very friendly and able to play with your puppy all day. I am also able to crate your or my baby if needed. I’m available for long walks and runs couch cuddles in your home if needed!
About: I stand out because I truly treat every pet like family. I have hands-on experience volunteering at animal shelters, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including nervous rescues and high-energy pups. I’m patient, gentle, and quick to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just providing comfort, I bring calm, consistency, and affection. I also understand the importance of routines and know how to care for senior dogs who need a little extra love and attention. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities—and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and notes while you're away! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for throughout my week. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon play sessions, or cozy evening check-ins, I build my schedule around giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m naturally active and love being outside, so walking dogs or visiting pets is a part of my regular routine that never feels like work. Because I’ve volunteered at shelters, I’m used to working with different pet personalities and needs—from energetic puppies to older dogs who move at a slower pace. I’m flexible, dependable, and always happy to adjust my day to fit your pet’s routine so they feel safe and cared for even when you’re not home. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet comfortable by sticking closely to their usual routine—whether that means feeding schedules, walk times, or favorite spots to nap and play. I always make sure they feel safe and cared for by giving them lots of affection, positive attention, and a calm presence. I also keep your space tidy and treat your home with respect. If caring for pets in my own home, I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with cozy spots for rest, safe areas for play, and lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure they have everything they need—fresh water, clean feeding areas, bathroom breaks, and companionship. I send regular photo updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I focus on creating a loving, stress-free experience that feels just like home.
About: Drop In Availability: Morning: 6a-9a; Evening: 6p-10p Dog Walk Availability: Morning: 6a-9a; Evening: 6p-9p I grew up with two Mastiffs, so I understand the importance of structure, patience, and making pets feel loved. I truly thought of Brutus and Khan (my mastiffs) like my brothers. Brutus and Khan were afraid of the thunderstorms so I learned from a young age how to comfort them. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, a reptile and some farm animals. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and animal’s personality. I’m comfortable administering medications, including pills, powders, and injections, and I always follow care instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent. As someone who works remotely, I’m reliable, communicative, and able to give your pet the time and attention they need. I treat every pet like they’re my own, creating a calm, loving environment so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I work remotely, which allows me to be flexible and present throughout the day. I’m able to schedule drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and check-ins around my work, so pets receive consistent attention. At home, I schedule myself around a “Pomodoro Method” and include 5-10 minutes of playtime with my cat when I need a break. When I’m caring for pets in your home, my goal is to make everything feel as normal and comforting as possible for them. I stick closely to their usual routine so they feel safe and at ease in their own home. I also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things clean and giving you regular updates. At home, I keep a calm, cozy environment for my own cat. I never use the “big light” and the TV is always kept on a quiet level for her. I will turn on the CatTV when I get busy with my work as well.
“Samantha was a hit with Mulder when they first met! I saw how he immediately accepted Samantha. It gave me peace of mind while we were away for an extended period of time. We have your number Samantha and we will call you again when needed. Thank you!”
“Nick was amazing! He was very professional and scheduled a video chat with me so he could share all about his business and how he could help Coco. He asked the right questions and I could absolutely tell he knew what he was doing. I will absolutely use him again in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m MacKenzie, and I cannot wait to meet your pet. While I am new to Rover, I am definitely not new to animals! I grew up in a household full of pets and have spent my entire life caring for dogs. I know how much your furry family members mean to you because mine mean the world to me. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, respect, and patience that I give my own. You can expect frequent photo updates and clear communication every step of the way! I am currently a full time Disney Cast Member which allows me to have a highly reliable, structured schedule that fits perfectly around pet care: Wednesdays & Thursdays: Fully open! I am available all day and night for dedicated, full-time pet sitting. Friday through Tuesday: Available for evening walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care starting at 5:30 PM (after my 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM shift).Your pet will always get consistent, timely care exactly when promised! I prioritize your pet's safety and comfort in their own home, providing reliable walks, respectful house sitting, and consistent communication with daily photo updates.
“Ashleigh is amazing. We She came by before to ensure our husky Roxy could become acquainted with her. We asked her to drop in twice a day and she provided us with pictures. Roxy got in plenty of play time and no accidents in the house. I would highly recommend Ashleigh in the future.”
About: I long for the day I can have a pet of my own, but in the mean time I will treat your fur baby like family! I work full-time in the healthcare field however I am available before and/or after shifts as well as on the weekends! My schedule is relatively consistent. My current living situation has space constraints, therefore I would be better suited to maintain the environment your pet is already accustomed to! This offers a level of heightened convenience and comfort to you and your pet.
“Jackie was AMAZING! I totally had to trust that she would take good care of my 2 golden retrievers while we were in the Parks for the day since we couldn’t do a meet & greet. She was awesome and took such good care of them, was flexible with our needs and scheduling, & we could tell she spoiled them rotten! Would highly recommend her! Thank you Jackie!”
“Mariluz was absolutely amazing with our German Shepherds! We went on a day trip and she came in to hang out with them twice throughout the day, we received the most detailed recap each time she visited - we cannot wait to book her again!”
About: After losing my 14 year old Lola I want to be close and offer love and care to other pups. Can’t wait to meet yours My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I do have some commitments in the early morning and early afternoon but I can work around them. I try to adjust to the clients needs first of all. That is the most important thing to me. I want to make sure I follow all the rules and your pet feels safe and cared for.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 7 years old. This includes feeding, walking, bathing, and tons of play. I have taken care of pets of both family and friends. I have also volunteered at the animal shelter, walking and playing with many kinds of dogs. I have always loved visiting friends to meet and play with their dogs. I would love to meet your pets! I usually work 1-2 times a week, so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. When I’m not working, I am at home most of my day, and can stop by when needed! I am diligent when it comes to following directions given to me by owners. I will always respect the home I am in, the pets I am working with, and the owner who has given me the opportunity to work with their pet :)

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Buena Vista
Isabella was fantastic! She arrived on schedule every day, sent excellent updates with photos, and took great care of my cat. She was trustworthy, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure my cat was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend her!
Kat is the best! She is super attentive and wonderful at communicating when things come up. She was great at adapting to the two cats’ different personalities and needs to make sure they both got the best possible care and attention. The daily photos and updates that come with them are always appreciated and make missing our fur babies a little easier. It really puts me at ease to know the cats are so well-cared for when I can’t be there! Kat is a star!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lake Buena Vista stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Buena Vista. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters 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 pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
