“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. :)”
“Karen was absolutely incredible! Little Stevie has never liked a sitter as much as she has Karen! I know that next time I go out of town Stevie will be in good hands with Karen and I will be trying to rebook with her again in the future.”
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.
“We’ve hired Shelley for several bookings and highly recommend her. Every visit she sends us updates and pics of our pets. She’s always on time, follows our feeding and care schedules and provides each of our pets with individual attention.”
“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 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.
“Reece was very responsible, and communicated well throughout the sitting hours. If any changes on the time was needed, she made sure to check first. I could tell she took this seriously and made me feel at ease. My dog is giant and not many people can handle it. But she did well with Mocha.”
“She was amazing! We had pictures of every visit and the love and care she provided for our dogs was amazing. She also gave us great summaries of her visits. I will be definitely be requesting her again.”
“Taryn was GREAT! If I could leave 10 stars, I would. Taryn watched our 8 month old golden retriever puppy, Blitz. From the first time she met Blitz during our meet & greet, we could tell she had a true love for dogs. We were at total peace knowing Taryn was watching Blitz, and she sent lots of pictures and videos! We will certainly be booking with Taryn again, she was the best!”
“Jenn was amazing with my kittens this past weekend. She went out of her way to make sure my girls were safe and comfortable while I was away. Her check-ins were prompt, and she followed up with how my babies were doing promptly as well. I will certainly be reaching out for any pet sitting needs with her again in the future.”
“We are so glad to have met Cassia She took great care of our cat whiskey while we went on vacation for a week. We received messages and photos after each check in. She also helped bring in mail and boxes which was greatly appreciated. We will definitely book with Cassia again.”

“I would definitely book Grey again! She had great communication prior to the drop in and provided a great report after the visit. My shy dog warmed up to her quickly which is rare! She made him feel comfortable and kept him safe. Couldn’t ask for more. Thanks, Grey!!”
“We had a wonderful first experience using a pet sitter service, thanks to Rebecca. As first-time users, we were naturally a bit uncertain about the process, but Rebecca immediately put us at ease with her professionalism, clear communication, and genuine care. She took the time to answer all of our questions and even offered a meet-and-greet before our trip, which made a big difference. During that visit, it was clear right away that our dog, Ginger, felt comfortable—her tail was wagging, and she happily snuggled up to Rebecca as we discussed her routine and expectations. Throughout our time away, Rebecca kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. It was evident that Ginger was not only well cared for but also happy and relaxed. Rebecca creates a nurturing, fun, and trustworthy environment for pets, and we would absolutely book with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate care for their furry family members. Thank you, Rebecca, for taking such wonderful care of Ginger!”
“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!”
About: I love dogs, I can talk about my own baby dog for days. I’m bilingual (Spanish and English), I love walking and I love pets. Mix them together and I’m there. I’m probably available when you need me so you can trust that I will take good care of your pets when you are not able :) I am a freelance photographer, so I work from home and manage my own schedule. I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as needed :) I can walk pets, come and feed them or play with them or I can pet sit in your home. Unfortunately not available to bring pets to my own home
“Poliana is the best pet sitter we have ever had! She is so communicative and truly went above and beyond to take care of our pets. All of our animals loved her, even those that are typically very shy of 'strangers'. I can't say enough how much I appreciate her!”
“Jonathan was an amazing life saver for our last minute trip. He took amazing care of our girl and treated her like family making sure she had everything she needed while we were away. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a pet sitter and we will definitely be using him again in the future!”

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!!
We cannot express how grateful we are to Katherine F. for taking such wonderful care of Kitty during our two-month trip away from Orlando. She was incredibly reliable, attentive, and sent regular updates with photos of Kitty, which eased all our worries while we were traveling. It was such a relief knowing our beloved cat was in patient, loving hands. Katherine truly treated Kitty like her own, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much, Katherine!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lake Butler on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 5,319 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Butler. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
