“Tamara helped me all week with my French bulldog. She was very punctual and communicative. My frenchie is very sweet but he can be stubborn, Tamara was patient with him. I will book her again in the near future! Highly recommended.”

“Shannon did an amazing job as always! My dogs are always so excited when she comes. When they use the bathroom, she brings her own potty bags and cleans up after them. My dogs are nice and tired from their walk! It gives me piece of mind knowing that they are in such good hands with Shannon. I will definitely continue to use her services throughout my surgery recovery process! Thanks, Shannon!”

About: I have shadowed at a vet clinic for over two years now gaining hands on experience on the care of small animals. I have also worked and volunteered at Clearwater Marine Aquarium where animal husbandry and rehabilitation was the main focus. I have also frequently made drop-in visits for friends to take care of their pets. I am available to work all day Mondays and Wednesdays. I am also available on the weekends before 3 pm. Very flexible with my schedule and availability. For my pets I ensure they are on heart worm/flea prevention. They are both completely vaccinated. I also ensure they have a clean area and fresh water/food every day. I maintain their grooming myself with weekly ear cleans, teeth brushing, etc.

About: I’m a mom always had dogs. I work from home and a little bored with the corporate America life. I would love additional income doing something I enjoy and getting out of the house for a reason to help others. I currently have two rescues I have experience with many dogs, cats, fish. Not a fan of snacks and rodents sorry. We had a Great Dane to a Maltese so all sizes ages medical condition I can perhaps relate . I love to stay active and making money is a bonus! It’s never enough now a days. I have flexible schedule with the sooner I know the better I can accommodate but I may be able to help same day. Tell me more about your pet their likes dislikes and expectations and we are happy to discuss more if you have any special requests. I know how important your pet is and the importance of good care. My son had to go through chemo when he was 7 and pet care was so important and I promise to care for yours as my own. Are you on vacation ? Are you local? Is this temporary? Reoccurring? Going through personal medical condition? Pet needs more attention? I’m here to make your life easier. A little more about me I am Polish, new to Florida, big pediatric cancer advocate; my son is a survivor, big sports family and Disney lovers. Whatever your pets typical lifestyle is I’d be happy to stick to that. If you want me to get them active happy to do them. Give them time to play with other animals or humans, just let me know. My pets are spoiled, I’ll leave it at that. I don’t like to over feed them, I am particular with what they eat and the amount of affection they receive.

About: Your animal will receive plenty of affection, treats, and playtime. I have spent about five years babysitting and caring for animals. Because my neighbors foster cats frequently, I have handled many kittens and bottle feeding, and I have provided proper care for any animals found on the streets, ensuring they receive the necessary treatments and medications. I enjoy giving animals the attention they deserve, playing with them, and learning their needs; I believe an open mind is essential for understanding what they truly want. I recognize that every animal is different, so I apply my best effort to accommodate any animal’s needs. I can assure you that your furry companion will enjoy time with me. Your furry friend will have a blast with me. I’m currently a swim instructor at aquatics for you. I teach babies the basic survival skills of how to swim and float. I’m also attending HCC right now to pursue a degree in diagnostic sonographer. I just graduated from Riverview high school where I played volleyball for six years club and school season. I love going outdoors playing soccer and volleyball. I also enjoy listening to music and dancing. I believe life is way too short, so you have to soak in every moment that you can. I’ll make sure that every animal dog or cat is completely put in a safe and welcoming environment. I think every animal just wants affection and love and they definitely will receive that with me. Any expectations or rules that are given to me will be followed to the T. there are no excuses for any sort of disrespectful or bad behavior on my end. I’ll make sure to provide any service that you would like.

About: I have owned two dogs for the past 9 years. I have previous experience working at a boarding facility as well. Your dogs will be safe, happy and loved while you’re away! I’m a current stay at home mom so I have time to help take dogs on walks and ensure they are getting the best care. I have two dogs and two cats, and I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I treat every animal as if they were part of my own family. My pets are happy, well-loved, and receive plenty of attention, and I provide the same level of care, patience, and affection to every pet I look after.

“New to the area and I am VERY skeptical about strangers watching my dogs. Let me just say how thankful I am to have met Carolina! She has been such a life saver, and she spoils & treats my boy as if he is her own. She is Reliable, great at communicating, sends updates (photos) and overall a very sweet person. I will definitely continue to use her for all of my weekly walks/stays. Thank you for watching my Buddy ?❤️”

About: I have a dog of my own (toy poodle) and I’ve had a variety of dogs growing up. I’ve had an English bulldog, a Boston terrier, a Yorkiepoo, and a Rottweiler so I’m experienced with all types of dogs. I have been taking care of pets including kittens, cats, and dogs for the past 5 years. I’m currently working part time remotely as an attorney, so I’m usually home all day unless I have other prior commitments such as a piano lesson to teach. I make loads of time to play with my dog and my son, and take him for long walks and several potty breaks a day, so your pet will be getting the same care! I treat every animal who is in my care just as well as I treat my own baby, and I am very careful to follow clients’ instructions because I know how I would want my baby to be treated. I personally like the free roaming approach, because I am a guest in your pup’s home. But of course I will always respect the boundaries that you have set for them. If you let them on the furniture, they can come on up and cuddle with me! If you prefer them to be crated at night, I will respect your wishes. In the event that I do have to step out, know that I don’t like leaving my own dog home alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time so I take the same care with clients. Even if I have to go teach a piano lesson, I always make sure the dogs are fed and the dogs have gone for a potty break before I leave and I make sure I’m not gone too long!

About: I believe pet sitting is more than just stopping by for a visit. Every pet is cared for with patience, attention, and the same love I would give my own. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and personality, send regular photo and text updates so you always know how they’re doing, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel right at home until you return. Pet care is a part of my daily routine, not just my work schedule. I plan my days around my clients’ visits to ensure every pet receives reliable, on-time care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, evening feedings, or overnight stays, I maintain a consistent schedule so pets can stick to their normal routine. Caring for animals is my full commitment, and I take pride in being dependable for both pets and their owners. For drop-in visits and dog walks, I focus on keeping each pet’s routine as consistent as possible. During every visit, I make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to your instructions if needed, receive plenty of attention and affection, and have the opportunity to go potty and get some exercise. Dog walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level and comfort, while drop-in visits include playtime, companionship, and any other care you’ve requested. I also provide photo and text updates after each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Having been raised by a father who was a veterinarian, I’ve had experience raising and caring for various types of animals. I believe our fur babies aren’t just pets, but are our children, family, guides and protectors I recently resigned from teaching and only have to care for my kitty child Lyran, so I’m pretty free and available for most dates and times requested. Having a cat baby at my house, I would prefer to go to the clients house to care for their pets. I can make exceptions and keep a clients pet depending on the pet and requirements for care.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals in a veterinary class I attended for a couple years. I enjoy being there for their needs. I work part time so I have days where I can gladly be with them and even after work I’d love to be with them too. I would have the clients pet stay in areas where the owner wants and need for it to be. I’ll keep them in the right area. Play and care for them while cleaning anything they do.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lithia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Lithia is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $24 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 6,516 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lithia. 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 Lithia. 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 Lithia 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 Lithia. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
