About: I've pretty much always been an animal person. Growing up around dogs made caring for animals second nature, and over the years I've had the pleasure of looking after all kinds of furry (and occasionally feathered) friends. I've spent plenty of time babysitting dogs, especially the big personalities and big paws! Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, German Shepherds — I love them all. I'm comfortable around larger breeds and understand that every dog has their own personality, quirks, and routines. I'm also a huge cat lover (as you can probably tell from the collection of cat photos on my profile 😂). And yes, I've even taken care of chickens, so I'd say my animal experience is pretty well-rounded. I do pet sitting because I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I love getting to know their personalities, keeping them company, and making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their humans are away. Whether your pet wants to play, go on adventures, get belly rubs, or simply have someone nearby while they nap, I'm happy to be their person! I'm a freelancer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week! I'm happy to accommodate weekday and weekend walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and keeping your pets company while you're away. I do have a senior dog at home, so I focus on providing care in your pet's own environment rather than offering boarding or overnight stays. I love getting to spend time with animals and I am happy to work around their routines! 🐾 I tailor my care to each pet's personality and routine! I'm a freelancer with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and absolutely love cats, too! I always arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand to get to know your pet, understand their needs, and make sure we're a good fit. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! 🐾

About: Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm used to structured schedules that include morning and evening potty breaks, set feeding times, naps, and check-ins throughout the day. I understand that some pets may need flexibility if they're sleeping, while others thrive on consistency. I make sure each pet gets attention, potty breaks, and time to relax, following their usual routine as closely as possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine.

I make sure each pet gets attention, potty breaks, and time to relax, following their usual routine as closely as possible. I prioritize safety and close supervision at all times. I'm careful with leashes, doors, feeding instructions, and temperature needs. I follow specific care instructions such as clothing for warmth when needed, proper harness use, and monitoring bathroom habits. I maintain a calm, clean environment and respect each pet's individual needs, routines, and comfort level so they feel safe and cared for.

About: I've had dogs all my life. I absolutely love being around animals and have had experience with small and large dogs young and old. I've also cared for special needs animals including dogs with epilepsy and spinal injuries. Animals seem to gravitate to me which is one thing I feel would make me great in this business. I'm particularly fond of larger breeds but really enjoy anytime with dogs.I don't currently have any dogs but do have 4 cats; Loki, Anakin, Drax, and Harvey. I'd be more than happy to take your dog to the park or just around the neighborhood for walks. I love animals of all kinds so consider me for other animal sitting as well! My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your pet is used to early morning walks, midday potty breaks, evening playtime, or medication schedules, I’ll work to maintain the routine they’re familiar with. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priority. I take the time to earn each pet’s trust at their own pace and use positive reinforcement to create a calm, comfortable experience. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and home security. I’ll also provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I grew up with two large German Shepherds, so I’ve been comfortable around big, powerful breeds my entire life. I’ve recently lived with a rambunctious Golden Retriever puppy & an elderly Boston Terrier. I'm active on another pet/house-sitting app called TrustedHouseSitters through which I've cared for 2 Australian shepherds (3yrs & 6yrs), 2 Goldens (5yrs & 5yrs), a Rhodesian ridgeback mix (2yrs), a a Boston terrier (3yrs), a yorkipoo (16yrs), a Chihuahua (15yrs), and a Shiba Inu (4yrs). I'm comfortable with all sizes, ages, and regimens. I work remotely which allows me to work around whenever your pet needs to be walked, fed, medicated, or entertained! I lead an active lifestyle myself, so if your dog thrives on long walks, runs, hikes, or endless games of fetch, I’m very down to be their exercise partner. If you have a couch potato who just wants to chill, I’m happy to match that energy as well. Following directions and communications are both strong suits for me! I am more than happy to jump on a quick call or video chat to answer any questions you might have, or arrange an in-person meet & greet to ensure we’re a great fit. Since I work remotely, I can fit my work schedule around any type of pet care - administering medicine, bathroom breaks, multiple meals, etc.. I exercise almost every day so adding walks/run or playing games of fetch acts as great exercise for both of us! If your pet comes to my place, it's a spacious apartment with a dog park and multiple green spaces or walking paths nearby. Communication is very important to me so you know your pet's routine is staying consistent. If I am to come to your residence, the majority of my experience has been full house-sitting for pet owners. I adhere to instructions well and quickly ask questions when needed!

About: Hello! My name is Camille. I have always loved animals and I get immense joy from interacting with them. I try and treat each animal with the same love and attention that I provide for my own. I have a flexible job and could help most mornings and afternoons if given some heads up in advance. I’m most available during evenings/nights and weekends. At a client’s home, I always try to be mindful that all points of exit (fences/ gates/doors) are blocked when letting myself into the apartment/ home to prevent pets from getting loose. I have experience outwitting my own dog who was a world class escape artist!

About: I’ve watched family and friends pets over the years when they need a hand. I even worked with a dog trainer for a summer! I currently have two part time jobs and I’m also an actor. I can provide pet care before and after work. I can drop in and give your dog a walk when needed! Or that little bit of exercise to get their energy out. I will stick to your dogs tried and true routine! Provide them with extra care and ensure a safe and fun environment whilst you’re away or busy.

About: I love all animals and genuinely enjoy taking care of your fur family member. I grew up on a farm taking care of multiple animals at a time, have rescued dozens of animals throughout my life and currently have 2 of my own. I used to train puppies and have done obedience training course before. My close friend has a senior dog (13 years old) that I have also helped take care of multiple occasions which included giving medication, cleaning up accidents, taking on frequent pee breaks, etc. I’m able to provide around-the-clock care for your babies throughout the day. I’m very flexible and happy to assist with pick-up and drop-off, baths if needed, administering medication, and more. Ideally, I’d love to meet you in advance to ensure we’re a great fit, though I prefer not to have our first meeting occur during the initial visit. Please note that I only accept pets who do well with other animals in the home and are fully potty trained. If you have a puppy who isn’t quite there yet, I kindly ask that you disclose this in advance so I can decide on a case-by-case basis. Lastly, I expect all pets to be on flea and tick prevention to ensure the safety of all animals in my home. If this isn’t the case, please let me know ahead of time. I look forward to connecting with you and meeting your babies! I live in front of Baldwin Park so I have access to one of the largest dog parks in Orlando, including walking the 2.5 mile lake. My complex also has a smaller dog park.

About: Hello! ✨️ I’m Aliyah, and caring for dogs has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by dogs created a deep love and understanding of their needs. I have experience with multiple breeds and personalities, and I currently care for my own dog as well. In my care, your pet will receive regular exercise, structured feeding times, lots of affection, and a safe, comfortable environment. While I am not a certified trainer, I reinforce basic commands and positive behaviors. My goal is always to ensure your dog feels secure, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾🥰 I am a barber student throughout the week.But I am home mostly Monday through sunday. I can watch your pet during the week, i am only at school til 3 each day, but it would have to be after 3pm. I don’t mind adjusting my schedule a bit as well to assist your needs!! After Friday-Sunday, I am home all day, for weekend needs and check ins! I have a apartment that overlooks a lake and has a lot of grass in front of the lake! The dogs can go on a nice walk around the lake and enjoy time at the dog park in my community!

About: As I’ve grown up I’ve noticed that dealing with every day people can take a toll your emotions and mental well-being. However I’ve found that working with kids and animals allows a person to be true to the kid inside us all. What sets me aside is that I don’t look at children as incompetents, but as people who have feelings and thoughts like everybody else. I don’t see pets as toys you can buy at the store, but as animals who feel and want to live and experience like the everybody else. Hi! I'm new to the Atlanta area, but I'm settling in and would love to meet fellow dog lovers and build a community of friends here. I work as a server at Top Golf, mostly on weekends, and I'll always keep my calendar updated with my current availability. During the week, I'm available for mid-day walks and drop-in visits while you're at work, as well as early mornings if your schedule doesn't allow much flexibility. I also have my own transportation, so once everyone is comfortable, I'd love to take your pup on little adventures outside the home during the day. My weekend availability will vary with my work schedule, but I'll make sure my calendar reflects exactly when I'm free so there are no surprises. My own dog, Snow, currently lives with my grandparents back in my hometown while I get settled since I've been moving around and it's been hard to find pet-friendly spaces. She's a total sunshine girl! We used to go sit together in the park almost every day just to soak up some air and sun, hang out by the pool at my old complex, and go to the beach when time allowed. She's a bit of a bougie girl at heart, so a plain walk around the block was never satisfied her. I used to take my neighbor's dog with my own around our complex then to the park, twice a day on leash. Since Florida heat is no joke, I always stuck to grass instead of hot pavement and made sure they got water right after. For every client, friend, or family pet I care for, I do my best to follow whatever schedule or routine is already in place at home. I try not to deviate, since consistency is what keeps my fur friends most comfortable!

About: I have 10 years of dog sitting experience. I enjoy spending time with pets, either through playtime or going for walks. I enjoy getting to know them and getting to know their personalities. Pets miss their parents and family, and it is my intention that they feel comfortable. With lots of affection and affirmations I like making our time the highlight of they’re day. Im am currently available from Monday-Friday, and selected weekends. I am currently working from home, so I have flexibility in my schedule. I am also flexible on holidays. I’ve had experience taking out dogs for potty breaks, feeding time, walks and play time. Always being mindful and having them leashed on the streets for safety precautions. At home I always ask of any particular routines, where do they potty, sleep and eat. Also of any behaviors I should be aware for the pets safety and mine. I do ask to be informed about any medications or food they are not allowed to have. All of this to assure the best care for your pet.

Havana was absolutely amazing! She was so attentive and kept us updated throughout the entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. You can genuinely tell how much love she has for animals because she cared for our doggies like they were her own. 🥹🤍 Our youngest pup has been struggling a little with socializing, and Havana was incredibly patient, gentle, and understanding with her. By the end of the stay, our girl had even made a new bestie, Ballpark! 🐾 We couldn’t be more grateful for the love and care she showed our babies. We would absolutely recommend her!

I cannot recommend Isabella enough! From the start, she blew us away during the meet-and-greet by arriving early and taking her genuine time getting detailed instructions and getting to know the pups. We needed someone for a drop-in visit for our three dogs, including our senior dog, Odin, who is usually very hesitant and doesn't like new people. Isabella effortlessly tended to all of them—Odin, Clemson, and Tiger—at once. She was incredibly patient, gentle, and knew exactly how to approach Odin to make him feel safe. I was so relieved to see how calm and comfortable he was in the updates, and Clemson and Tiger were just as happy and well-cared for. It is rare to find someone who can manage multiple dogs while winning over an anxious senior pup so quickly. If you have a multi-dog household or a sensitive pet who needs a truly professional, compassionate touch, book Isabella immediately!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Maitland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Maitland is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 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 November 2026, there are 5,312 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Maitland. 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 Maitland 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 Maitland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Maitland. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.
