Pet care fit into my weekly routine by organizing my schedule between working and pet sitting. Also balancing and make time to take care of the puppies. I can keep the dogs occupied and entertained also well taken care of I can take the dog for a walk and I can feed the puppy as well.
About: I am an experienced pet walker and sitter with knowledge in dogs and cats, especially senior dogs. No matter what, I believe that all animals deserve respect and care, in any circumstance. I currently have open availability. I would gladly go take care of any pet. Any day or time. I am also happy to do holidays. I like to keep pets I'm looking after close enough to me that I can readily get to them. Just in case they need help.
“Thrilled with Sarah. She never missed a day and spent extra time with our cat. We arrived home to a calm and not psychotic pet. Thanks Sarah, you are our go to cat sitter.”
About: I have been dog sitting for others for many years. I now have a dog of my own for the last 4 years and he is my world. I have a flexible schedule so it makes it easy for me to drop in between appointments. I work for myself and able to make my own schedule. This makes it easy to drop in for a visit or take your pet for a walk. I have a fenced yard for my dog and always use a leash when he is not in the yard. I do not leave him unsupervised in the yard just to make sure he does not eat something he is not supposed to.
“Halee is kind, communicative, attentive and great with our furry crew of one pup and three cats. She listens to our needs for our feeding routine and is just a joy to be around.”
About: Hi my name is Valerie. I am currently an online college student going to Seminole State! I absolutely love dogs and can’t wait to love yours. It’s always been a passion of mine to just hangout with them! Ever since I was 15, I would always go around and ask in the neighborhood if anyone needed there dog walked! Friends and family would always reach out to me to care for their furred ones! I absolutely enjoy spending time with them and who wouldn’t want a new fur-friend?!💕 Availability: Flexible hours for occasional dog sitting gigs, especially on weekends and evenings. Am willing to open up availability hours in the near future! Thank you! I have a ton of yard space for our fur-friends to play! As well as all types of food! And we can’t forget about the treats!!
“We're very fortunate to have found Claudia! Being new pet owners & new to the area we didn't know where to begin to find a sitter for our Travis. Claudia made the entire experience a very easy & pleasant one for our family! She was very attentive to Travis and kept in contact the entire time with us. We came home to a very happy pup, thank you Claudia!”
About: Hello from your pets new bestie! Here to offer Drop in visits, play time, walks, and cuddles. Your pup will look forward to my visits ! I am a lifelong dog lover and 27 year certified Canine 4 Companions puppy trainer with over 40 successfully raised puppy "graduates" who are now currently helping their human companions to cope with blindness, seizures, and emotional trauma all over the US. This along with 11 years as a pet sitter has given me valuable experience working with dogs of all sizes, shapes, and personalities. As a dog mama myself ( of Coops the 14 year old Beagle and a 7 pound poodle mix named Toby). I know how hard it is to leave your babies for a long vacation or even just a long with day. This is why as a sitter I make it my mission to give owners peace of mind of knowing their baby is safe, happy, and healthy through 24/7 communication availability, photo updates (we even Facetime!) as requested, and consistent reliability and professionalism. It's much easier to leave for a trip or day at work knowing your dog is home with someone who treats them with the same love, respect, and care as her own fur babies. If we get the chance to work together, I promise to treat your home and pup with the same respect and cuddles I give my own and am happy to send as many photos and updates as you need :) I currently work part-time, and am able to make my own schedule. This allows me to prioritize your pets needs and routine while you are away. I plan to follow all instructions while visiting a client's home, and if preferred, I am happy to provide updates in photos as often as needed so that you feel comfortable.
About: My husband Ryan and I have an extremely well-behaved blue healer mix, Jolene, who is seeking some new friends! We do have cats, but we have two floors and can separate the cats and our dogs quite easily. We live right next to a long trail, and we will wake up early or stay up late to walk our pups in good weather. We also have a garage we cool with fans and the door open to allow our pups to play for a bit with plenty of water! Otherwise, they are allowed on furniture and treated like family. We have all the love to give! At least one us of (Ryan or Alyssa) will be home at all times. Your baby will never be without affection, attention, and love. Alyssa sets her own schedule & pauses to focus on animals when they stay in our home. Jolene is a fantastic play with other dogs. She matches their pace and gives them space. She's incredibly well-behaved and submissive in play. In our home, we live to ensure our animals live a healthy, happy, and inclusive environment. We allow pets in bed, on the furniture, and follow all instructions provided by their owner. We understand that every owner has their own preferences, & we will take your guidance in feeding, vitamins, special needs, bathroom breaks, etc. When we have animals stay with us, it becomes a full-time job for us so our furry friends can't wait to come back again!
About: I have always had multiple cats and dogs growing up, I have experience since 8 years old, bottle feeding, fostering, and caring for senior pets. I currently have 10 rescue animals of my own: 2 dogs, 5 cats, 2 bunnies, and 1 large turtle who lives in an in-ground pond I built in our backyard. I truly love helping care for animals and will treat your babies just like my own! I have a super flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Long walks, fetch out back, or a cuddle inside—I’ll make sure they’re well cared for and comfortable before I leave. I am always extremely cautious entering and exiting homes, so no worries about escape artists! I never bother an animal who doesn’t want affection and will be as patient as necessary to build a bond. I do my best to match the energy of your pet to keep them as comfortable as possible.
About: Hi! I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member. I’m a dependable, attentive, and caring person who understands that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful. My goal is to make you and your pet feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply a little companionship, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way! I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. 🐶🐱 I am currently a flight instructor building hours to get to the airlines and pet sitting would be the perfect job to do when I am not in the air. I love being around dogs and cats, so its the perfect job that doesn't feel like a job. Anything you need me to do to help your furry companion feel happy and safe I'll be more than happy to do. If your pet needs anything special I will go above and beyond to make sure that he/she is taken care of. Your furry friend will be loved and spoiled with me.
“Caralin was absolutely excellent taking care of our pets while we were away on vacation. My girlfriend and I are overprotective pet parents and have trouble leaving our loved ones home while away; Caralin went over above and beyond with her care of them and truly impressed us with the care and love she showed to our pets. We would be happy to hire her again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to family and friends. If you’re like us and worry about your pets while away, you can trust Caralin to make sure they’re happy and taken care of.”
“Carla did an excellent job with our fur babies when we had an emergency trip. She made sure everything was taken care of and that they got lists of attention. Would recommend booking her 😊”

“Christine was great with our pup and took amazing care of him. She was always on time, communicative with updates, and went the extra mile when our dog's separation anxiety left him with an upset stomach. Will definitely keep her at the top of our list for taking care of our pup in the future.”
“Kellyn was very good with our Mia. Mia is a rather large dog and does take some time getting used to people. Kellyn took the time to allow me to become more custom to her. Her text were always positive. We will use her again and again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Mary
Noelle was a God send! We found her on Rover for drop ins during a holiday weekend when our usual neighbors reminded us close to our trip that they would be away this time around. Long story short, it's not easy to find someone willing to befriend our 140 pound GSD, although he is friendly once he gets to know you, his size and timid behavior can easily intimidate strangers. Noelle knew exactly how to act, behave and treat our doggies at the meet and great and my pups instantly made friends with her. She was super responsive, respectful, completed all of the check ins timely and fully! I felt so at ease on our trip knowing she was handling it all! I cannot say enough great things of Noelle. Even going above and beyond to play with them, clean up their muddy paws, and ensure they were loves and comfortable while their Hoomans were gone. Thank you so so so so much Noelle! ❤️😊 Our fur babies have a new friend and we definitely would recommend your services for good! 😁
Billy did a wonderful job with Chloe! She warmed up to him so well. Billy made sure to keep me updated with every walk and sent me plenty of photos. We’ll totally be booking with him again for our next trip and making sure to let our friends in the area know about Billy’s services ❤️
Adriana is the best! She’s a great communicator and is so reliable which is such a relief when you’re far away from your pets. She is so good with our two big dogs and our cat, they love her! She’s accommodating with medications/ food prep/ walking schedules. I can’t recommend her more!
Brianna was wonderful! She was always punctual and did a great job keeping me updated after each visit. I really appreciated the detailed notes and photos—it gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly took great care of her. I would absolutely recommend Brianna to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future! 🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lake Mary is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 4,910 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lake Mary. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lake Mary choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lake Mary with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
