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.

“Skye took such great care of my pitbull Kilo! She was attentive, communicative, and kept me updated throughout the visit. Kilo seemed to really enjoy his time with her, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker. :)”
“Daijah was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of our two dogs, including a geriatric dog who wears diapers. She kept us updated everyday and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely request her again!!!”
“Mark has been walking our large German Shepherd for almost two years now (including some long stretches when we were on vacation). We have always had really good experiences, observed impeccable reliability, have seen him go above and beyond to help us out and our dog seems to love him! The dog is 130 lbs so that can also be tricky but Mark works great with him! Would highly recommend Mark.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them! I genuinely love all dogs—big, small, energetic, or snuggly. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs as well as watched and babysat dogs for friends and family. Whether it’s going on long walks, keeping up with a feeding routine, or just giving lots of love and attention, I’m someone you can count on to treat your dog like my own. I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday, and remote on Fridays. Whether it’s walks or drop-in visits, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I love spending time with animals, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve! When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow all routines and instructions provided to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I respect the home and treat it with care, making sure pets stay safe, happy, and well-looked-after in their familiar environment. I keep a close eye on them during walks or playtime, always making safety a top priority—whether that means using a secure harness, avoiding busy areas, or watching for anything that could be harmful. Communication is also important to me, so I’ll provide updates and photos to keep you informed and at ease while you're away.

“Rebecca was hands down the best dog sitter we have ever had! She was on time or early for every scheduled visit and genuinely cared for our little old fur babies! You can’t fake this kind of care and concern for someone else’s pets. She is the real deal and we will definitely ask for her again when needed!”
“Alexis was a tremendous help with checking in on our kitties while we were out of town for two weeks. She was timely, shared updates and photos with me, and took great care to maintain the cats food, water, and litter during her check-ins. I would recommend Alexis to any cat parent!”
“Katherine is absolutely wonderful! She was very responsive and reliable. I also appreciate that she would grab our packages if we had any sitting and bring them in. I will absolutely schedule care with Katherine again in the future!”

Katherine was fantastic! She sent update-pictures, solved issues that came up (our automatic water machine stopped working for some reason and she was able to put out additional water for the cats), and she even gave them some playtime as well. Highly recommend and would book again!
Sarah is the best sitter! I felt relaxed on vacation knowing my cats were in great care and loved while I was away! Sarah is very punctual and a great communicator!! I appreciated the daily updates and photos!! I especially appreciated that she took the time to love them with all the cuddles and playtime!!
Taylor was always on time, provided excellent care to my cats. One has diabetes. So it requires an extra step. She was always communicating every visit how they pets where doing. She kept everything tidy and I can tell she loves doing this and takes great pride in her job. I will hire here every time I need help.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Butler 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 Butler. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
