About: We’re a pet-loving couple with a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even birds. Over the years, we’ve shared our home with animals of all ages — from playful puppies to wise senior dogs who lived happy, healthy lives well into their late teens (some as old as 19!). We’ve raised many litters of puppies and know firsthand the love, patience, and care that every stage of life requires. We treat every pet like part of our family, with plenty of attention, affection, and understanding of their individual needs. Whether your furry friend needs gentle senior care, energetic walks, or simply a calm, loving presence while you’re away, we’re here to provide peace of mind and heartfelt care. Areas serviced: Satellite Beach, Indian Harbour Beach, Paradise Beach, Indialantic, Melbourne Beach and South Beaches. My husband and I recently stepped back from our property management work, which has opened up a lot of time in our daily and weekly schedule. Caring for animals has always been a big part of our lives, so we’re excited to fill that time doing something we truly love — spending time with pets! We now have a flexible schedule that allows us to give each pet the attention, care, and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s drop-in visits or daily walks, we can easily adjust our days around your pet’s routine to make sure they always feel safe, loved, and cared for. When we care for pets in a client’s home, we treat both the pet and the home with the same respect and care we would our own. We always follow your instructions carefully — from feeding schedules and walks to preferred routines and house rules — so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. We take safety seriously, making sure doors and gates are properly secured, leashes are used at all times on walks, and pets are never left unsupervised in unsafe areas. We believe trust is built through communication, so we provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while your pet enjoys familiar surroundings.

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs but have been dog sitting for several years now. At home my family has two very high-energy dogs so I know what it takes to keep them occupied and exercised. We can have lots of play time if that’s what your dog enjoys or just hangout together around the house if that’s more their speed. You can guarantee on receiving updates and photos of your dog while away if all the fun things we are doing! We will do a long walk or run or playtime in the morning before it’s too hot out. Throughout the day we will have outside time and can do shorter walks or go on adventures together and in the evening another long walk or playtime! My schedule is super flexible. I follow your care instructions so the dog has the same rules and routines while you’re away. I want your dog to be comfortable and have fun while you’re away so you don’t have to worry.

About: What sets me apart is that I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with a wide range of breeds and personalities—from a high-energy boxer to a Maltese and a laid-back basset hound—so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. That experience helps me quickly read a dog’s needs, whether it’s giving puppies extra patience and structure or making sure senior dogs are comfortable and cared for at their own pace. I treat every dog like family and adjust my care to what makes them feel happiest and most at ease. I work from home Monday - Friday from 8-5, which gives me plenty of flexibility to take dogs out for walks, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. I already aim to walk about 10k steps daily, so getting outside with your pup fits perfectly into my routine. I’m home most of the day and typically only step out briefly for the gym. On weekends, my schedule is relaxed and flexible. If your dog loves the beach, I’m often there soaking up the sun and fresh air—but if they prefer to stay in, I’m just as happy spending the weekend cuddling, playing, or keeping them company at home. I love adapting to each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved! I care for pets as if they were my own, focusing on consistency, safety, and making them feel comfortable in their environment. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines, since I know pets thrive on familiarity. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and mental stimulation throughout the day. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I’m attentive to behavior changes, energy levels, and overall well-being, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos so owners feel confident their pet is happy and cared for.

Brian is an amazing dog sitter! Our dogs were comfortable with him the second they met him. He was consistently on time to feed and walk the boys and always sent a quick summary and pictures to hold us over until we could get back home to them. We will definitely be asking Brian to watch our dogs again in the future!

About: Hello, I am Christine, a passionate animal lover and experienced dog owner with a strong background in animal behavior and pet care. I have extensive experience training and caring for dogs, including a 16-year-old yellow Labrador retriever who sadly passed away in February 2023. Additionally, I've fostered and adopted several dogs through both Labrador Retriever Resce and local Boxer Rescue groups. I married my soulmate in 2023 and shortly after adopted our now 2+ year old Labrador from a local rescue group. In addition to my personal experience, I have also worked with and volunteered for a local SPCA, fostering dozens of dogs and offering in-home pet sitting services. I am committed to providing the highest quality care for your pets and am happy to provide references upon request. I'm currently focusing all of my time on caring for our 6 month old pup and caring for your pup as well! Either in your home or mine! We have a 6 foot, fully fenced in safe and secured back yard. We have a 48" pool for cooling off in during the hotter months and lots of interactive toys to keep them occupied as well!

Being a working mom, it is hard trying to do it all. I was in a bind and needed help. My friend recommended to try Josh on Rover. I have never had any experience with Rover before, but I had no choice as I needed the help. I booked with Josh which was super-fast and easy. He approved the walk right away. Well, I would too if you saw a picture of my sweet dog. Josh was punctual and seems like a really nice gentleman. Nala was so happy to go on a walk, she just darted out the door with him. Josh made sure to give nala all the love I would have given her if I had the time to walk her. This experience with Rover and Josh as a walker was wonderful. I would highly recommend using Josh.

About: You could probably say I enjoy being around dogs more than most people. I consider dogs angels. I love to spoil them. My two girls are very spoiled. I have always had a dog. At one time I had 4 large dogs. I know what distress looks like and I know animal safeguarding. My husband and I have a deep bond with animals. We will care for your dog just as if they were ours. I’m a retired teacher and I love and truly understand dogs. I will love your pet as if he/she were my own. I’ve done all kinds of medications including kidney care involving injections and oral medicine. I have a fenced in yard and a safe place to walk dogs. I have two female Shitzus and they are very very friendly. I have had puppies, teenage dogs, and seniors. We only care for one families’ dog(s) at a time so they receive the care they deserve. We will send lots of pictures of your dog during our time with us and we will always follow your care instructions.

About: I’ve had a dog by my side since the day I was born. In fact, the only time in my entire life I haven't had a pup around was a single year during college, and that was one year too many. Dogs are a constant in my life, not just a hobby. I have a strong passion for working with disabled and special needs animals. Whether it's managing mobility issues, administering medication, or providing the extra patience required for physical or behavioral challenges, I’m fully committed to that level of care. I’m also very experienced with resource guarding and high energy breeds. I don’t just watch dogs; I work to understand their specific personality and needs so they feel safe and supported. Working from home gives me the flexibility to be truly present and attentive during the week. I am available Monday through Saturday for drop ins, dog walks, vet visits, conditioning sessions, dog transport, or love bombs. I am generally free to help out starting at 2:00 PM on weekdays and have much more open availability on Saturdays. I do not offer services on Sunday. I focus on high quality mobile care for your pups during the week. My priority is being entirely respectful of both your dog’s comfort and your home environment. I understand that every dog has a specific routine and safe space, and I make it a point to maintain that structure to keep stress levels low. You can count on me to be professional and meticulous with your property. I treat every home with the same level of care and respect I’d want for my own. Whether we are out for a walk or hanging out inside, I focus on clear communication and safety so you have total peace of mind.

They’ve trusted me with both their homes and their beloved animals, and I take that responsibility very seriously.

About: I have been a dog owner my whole life, and have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, special needs (lots of medication) dogs, and working with multiple dogs at one time. My favorite part about working with dogs is being able to run and play with them. I am available early mornings and late nights. I also love trail walking/running, so I'll make sure your dog gets the exercise they need! I follow a rigorous routine of walking/running with my own dogs, and will take the same care with yours! Based on your pets exercise level, we can walk/run for up to an hour as needed. Caring for other dogs involves building trust through playtime, walks, and of course, treats! Making sure your dog is comfortable on walks and overnights is the top most priority.

About: I have had 4 very different dogs over 30+ yrs and really enjoyed having them in my life. I loved and trained each one through various stages and challenges of dog life. My current dog is approaching a year old. Recently retired, I finally have free time to devote to animals. I love to take walks and would love nothing more than to help working owners with walking and/or playing with their dog(s). I always felt bad for my dog's long days alone when I worked fulltime. I feel there would be less dogs in shelters if people had more time to give their pets the exercise they need to be happy and healthy. This opportunity would be a win-win for both me and a lucky dog!

About: I have owned dogs, cats, rabbits and have been a caretaker on another platform for child and pet services. I am also comfortable giving medication to animals. I am attentive to animal needs and communicate with clients quickly. I have two kittens Dexter and Maui and one senior cat,Bob, who has daily medication. I enjoy playing with pets and getting to know their quirky personalities. I always follow client instructions and ask for further clarification if I need more information. I am comfortable with all breeds and multiple animals. I have medical background, but I am currently in school so I am not working in the hospitals. When I had 3 cocker spaniels, I cooked them meat with green beans and rice, so I am capable of preparing meals as well. I can stop by multiple times day or night. Also, available to house sit and will care for multiple pets. Currently not working so I have an open schedule I have two cats in my home, so I cannot board any animals, but I’d be happy to care for your fur baby at your residence

FAQs for Dog Walking - Melbourne Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 1,136 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Melbourne Beach. 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 your Melbourne Beach. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Melbourne Beach.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Melbourne Beach. On Rover:

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 99% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
