About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience caring for pets in every stage of life and with a variety of unique needs. I’ve cared for newborn kittens, expecting mother cats, and senior cats with anxiety, so I understand the patience and individualized attention they require. I also have a special interest in large working breeds and enjoy providing the structure, enrichment, and care they thrive on. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for farm animals. I’m highly attentive, reliable, and committed to following your pet’s routine as closely as possible. Every pet is different, so I take the time to listen to your needs and provide flexible, personalized care to help both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I have the flexibility to create my own schedule. This allows me to dedicate the time and attention each pet deserves, whether it’s sticking to a specific routine, providing midday visits, or accommodating last-minute requests whenever possible. I enjoy making pet care a priority and ensuring every pet receives reliable, personalized care. I will care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can feel safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. My goal is to learn each pet’s unique routine, personality, and preferences so I can provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away, giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.

I absolutely love animals and updating owners with photos, videos, texts, etc. I will love your best friend as if it was my own! I am a student at USF St. Pete but other than that I have a lot of free time to look after your best friend!

I clean up, spend time with them, and as soon as something seems off you will be getting a call from me. I take pride in doing the absolute best job I can.

About: I’ve been a lover of furry four legged friends since I was young. Neighbors, friends and family have always asked me to take care of their family (pets) while they are on trips or at work. They will be welcomed with open arms! I also can provide reiki on your pet if wanted or needed! I am a birth and death doula. For the most part I am home unless with a client. We can talk about how our schedules can fit! Safety is top priority along with all the love and attention that your four legged friend can handle! Whatever you need, I’m sure we can make accommodations.

About: I care about them as if they were my own. They don't live as long as humans so they deserve the best life we can give them while they're here. The only experience and knowledge I have of dogs and cats is what I've learned on my own with my pets throughout my life. I don't have a job so my availability is mostly flexible. Looking for extra money, I don't have any special skills I just need extra money and love dogs and cats. The only thing I can think of that puts me apart from other services/sitters is the desire and drive to complete any task, besides my love for pets, I have a great work ethic that helps me be motivated to ensure every step was taken in completing a task. Money is also a great motivator but isn't the saying "do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life", that's a great interpretation of my work ethic. I'm currently unemployed. I usually have availability on Saturday, and Sunday. If I am available during the weekend I will update my schedule, otherwise that's my availability. I cannot offer boarding in my home because I live in an apartment where each pet in my home needs to be paid for and accounted for by my apartment management but I will treat your animals and living spaces like royalty and respect all responsibilities asked of me while I care for your pets in your home.

About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve regularly watched my friends’ dogs and recently pet sat for my mom’s client for 4 days, where I made sure their pet was safe, comfortable, fed, and well cared for. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to animals’ needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work at Amazon and I do night shifts 1am-11:50am Friday-Monday and my Off days would be Tuesday -Thursday would also be available Friday-Monday after 1pm I treat every pet like they’re my own! I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime and attention, and stick to their normal routine. I love giving pets lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their fur baby is happy and well taken care of.

About: My interest in becoming a pet sitter started when I was still a child and the neighbors’ dogs who I’d befriended tracked me to my house to come to the kitchen door and ask if I could come out to play. Since then, I've been caring for dogs as early as litters of puppies to their adult and senior years. I’m dog and cat CPR certified which luckily I’ve never had to use but it’s better to be safe than sorry. I’ve cared for many breeds.. mixed, purebreds, super well-trained to shy and needing some encouragement. I love taking caring of animals and being apart of their routine. I’m happy to go into more detail with you as requested or booked services offer us a chance to chat! Taking care of pets is part of my daily life. I own a Siberian husky and I'm usually offering pet care services 7 days a week. I have a good sized 2 bedroom apartment that can accommodate me, up to 2 medium or large size dogs, big comfortable furniture, and plenty of room for playtime, naps, or just ease of maneuvering around. When a dog is daytime visiting or staying overnight I focus my attention here at home and keeping your pet comfortable, cared for, and as little worry to you as possible. When visiting your home I like to provide lots of playtime/walks, cuddles, and I’m a reader so a quiet companionship is always part of a stay as well. Taking care of pets is apart of my daily life.

About: I’ve worked as a dog handler for a year and have worked with and owned dogs myself for more than 7 years. I know how to administer dog meds, give bathes, cut nails, and more. Your dogs needs and safety will always be first priority to me and you can trust your dog with me without worry. I’m very familiar with all sorts of different diets as I have a few bulldogs and they each have all sorts of allergies so I have learned to value a strict (if needed) and efficient nutrient filled diet. I live on a small farm which I mow and spray with flea and tick spray weekly so your dogs can play in my yard without worry if needed. Every dog is so unique and special and I want nothing more than to provide each client with a service they feel happy with. I recently quit my job at a doggy daycare/hotel because I want to focus on finishing my bachelors. I go to college online and I would like to have a more flexible personalized schedule. i have 5 dogs. English bulldog, 3 French bulldogs and a greyhound. I keep all the dogs separately crated and they have outside playpens when they need to go outside. Normally i wake up around 6am and let each dog out/walk them then I prepare each dogs food and feed them each separately. I usually will go into my garden for an hour or two and will bring one of the dogs with me for some outside time in the sun before it’s too hot. I’ll usually just rotate them for outside time for half an hour each. Later on I will supervise them together and allow them to play altogether for an hour and let them tire themselves out. I have a dog couch for when they want to just sit and watch tv next to me afterwards. When I go to a clients house I usually ask what the dogs are allergic too so i know what treats I can give him and what their schedule is like so I can understand how their day usually goes for them so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible with me.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lecanto

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Lecanto is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $32 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 767 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lecanto. 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 Lecanto. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Lecanto after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Lecanto. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers 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 walker.
