“Kayla took great care of our cat snowflake. Kayla did check-ins in the morning while we were on vacation, and it warmed my heart to see how happy she was in the pictures and videos. Kayla's check in notes were detailed and comprehensive, and we'll definitely try to book her again the next time we're out of town.”
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m currently a dog sitter for my mom whenever she goes out of town. At most, I have taken care of 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time. I have a 6 month training in pet grooming where I learned how to read the signs of a scared or uncomfortable dog/cat, and will always respect their space when it comes to a stranger in their area! I’m currently working part time, so it’s easy for me to stop by and check on your pets! It’s more of a hobby for me than a way to make money. I love all pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is comfortable with me. Whether that’s giving them the space they need, or making sure they received plenty of affection, or simply making sure they’re in the home!
“Jyoti was fantastic! She did two drop-in visits for our dogs, Dolly and Rivers, while we were away for the day. She was professional, punctual, and wonderful with both of them. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for and could enjoy our day without worrying. We highly recommend Jyoti and will definitely be requesting her again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups! 🐾💕”
About: I've taken care of multiple neighbors pets as well as friend's and family's pets for years. Love taking them out for walks and making them wag their tails! I’m currently a graduate student in PA school and am about to start my clinical rotations! Because my schedule varies from rotation to rotation, my availability may change throughout the year. Some rotations allow me to be home much more frequently than others. Before accepting any house-sitting request, I’ll always discuss my schedule with you to ensure it matches your pet’s potty break, exercise, and companionship needs. I only accept bookings when I know I can provide the level of care your pet deserves. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and lots of love. I carefully follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules. Our old baby was blind and diabetic so I know how important a consistent schedule can be. I love providing regular updates with photos as well so you know how loved your fur baby is :)
“Brooke did such a great job! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so thankful I found someone who was trustworthy while I was away from home. It’s obvious how much she cares about animals and will treat yours like her own. She even brought in my packages and took photos to share on every trip to my home. She happily checked in on the fishy and took the dogs for walks which is so appreciated!”
About: My name is Omi, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My love for pets began in childhood while growing up in Puerto Rico, where I was surrounded by cats, dogs and many other animals. Living with so many different animals taught me from an early age how to understand their unique personalities, care for their needs, and appreciate the unconditional love they give. My very first pet was a Chihuahua with a wonderfully spicy personality who quickly became a cherished member of our family. As I got older, I naturally became the person family, friends, and neighbors trusted to care for their pets whenever they traveled. I regularly looked after my aunt's dog, Rosie, cared for my neighbor's cat, Chloe, spent time with my cousin's Husky, Brooklyn, and cared for my sister's three cats by feeding them and making sure they were happy and comfortable while she was away. I truly believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and cared for just as they would at home. I have a naturally nurturing personality and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, offering plenty of affection, or simply keeping them company. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. Today, I still enjoy caring for animals and currently have a betta fish of my own. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle, I will treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I know how much our pets mean to us because they truly are family, and I would be honored to care for yours while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and spend only a few hours each day on my computer. This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard where pets can safely play and explore, and there's also a nearby dog park for walks, exercise, and extra enrichment if desired. I make sure every pet receives plenty of love, playtime, affection, and one-on-one attention while respecting their individual personalities and routines. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, relaxed environment, I'll make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I carefully follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to maintain the routine they're accustomed to. I provide plenty of affection, exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship while ensuring they always have access to fresh water and a clean, safe environment. Communication is also important to me. I'll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and receiving the same love and attention they would get at home. Every pet is unique, and I treat each one like a member of my own family.
About: I have grown up and been around dogs my entire life. Before my kids were born my dogs were my kids and I treat them as family members. My dogs would sleep in my bed and I would take them everywhere I possibly could because they were my best friend. I feel that all dogs love their owners unconditionally as long as you treat them appropriately. A concept that was brought to my attention a long time ago regarding dogs is that they might not be the most exciting part of our day, but we are the most exciting part of theirs and they look forward to seeing us every day. I wake up every day appreciating that fact and my dogs have always return the favor I work close to home and I’m off on weekends. I have a lot of flexibility from my regular job to facilitate any pet need. I’ve always treated any of my pets like my children. They get a lot of attention, exercise, and play time. Pets that I have watched over for friends and family get sad when they leave my house because they have had such a good time.
About: I have watched my cousins dogs and my friend‘s dogs and I love them all! I especially love playing with them and taking them on walks! I am a college student living in Lakeland during the weekdays and I come home on the weekends. I do not do anything on the weekends other than go to church. I would love to take care of your pet! I let the pets roam around in the house except for certain rooms that have anything that could harm the pet and I always have my eye on them to make sure they aren’t getting into trouble! :)
About: I have taken care of my family and friends animals since I was 14, I am now 20 and have worked with Animak Enforcement for a year at the LCSO. I have also volunteered at many Animal Shelters! I’m currently available at any point in time, animals fit into my active routine as taking on walks and caring intensively is something to look forward with me! I cannot do boarding at my home due to mom and sister being allergic :( I plan on having an animals sanctuary when I move out!
About: I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care — that’s why I provide a safe, structured, and loving home environment where pets are treated like family, not “boarded animals.” I provide in-home pet care with a strong focus on safety, routine, and individualized attention. My home is designed to offer a calm, supervised environment where pets feel secure, understood, and comfortable throughout their stay. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified with over 40 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in personal, rescue, and foster settings. I have worked with puppies, seniors, anxious pets, large breeds, and high-needs cases requiring rehabilitation, structure, and behavioral support. I also have extensive medical experience, including administering insulin for diabetic pets, subcutaneous fluids, oral and injectable medications, and specialized topical treatments. I am confident and gentle when caring for senior and medically complex pets. Fluent in English and Spanish, with additional working knowledge of Korean, I am able to clearly communicate and follow detailed care instructions from a wide range of pet owners. Daily Rates are based on a 24h stay (anything over each 24h is an additional stay) *All intact canines over the age of 18mo are a $50 daily rate and holidays $60 **All puppies under 18mo are a $45 daily rate and $55 on holidays ***All canines over the age of 18mo who weigh over my Rover weight limit is a $46 daily rate & $56 on holidays Because I operate my pet care business from home, my daily schedule is fully centered around the pets in my care. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured routines, and timely attention throughout the day. Pets are never left unattended for extended periods. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, medication routines, and rest periods to ensure each pet receives reliable, attentive care in a calm and stable environment. Safety and structure are a top priority in my home. My property is fully fenced with additional enclosed outdoor areas designed for safe, controlled activity suited to different sizes, ages, and temperaments. Pets are always supervised in a calm, structured environment where their safety and comfort come first. This includes active oversight throughout the day to ensure each pet is secure, accounted for, and emotionally at ease. For the safety of all animals in my care, I do not accept reactive or aggressive dogs. Each pet is carefully screened through a meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility and a safe, balanced environment. My own pets are professionally trained and well-socialized, contributing to a stable and peaceful home atmosphere.

“So very happy to have found someone who will care for our dog! Nikki takes the worry out of day trips for us! She spends quality time with Kade and takes him for a walk. I highly recommend!!”

Andrea has been Dizzy & Archie's sitter for a while now and we all couldn't be happier! She's almost always been available to us even on holidays, she's punctual, thorough, and she really seems to love what she does. Leaving my boys is always tough, but knowing we're in good hands with Andrea takes a lot of worry away.
Bailey was absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative and followed all the instructions perfectly. She was not only friendly but also incredibly thoughtful and caring with my doggies. I truly appreciated her attention to detail and the genuine care she showed. I would absolutely love for her to continue taking care of my doggies, and I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mount Dora stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Mount Dora 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
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 Mount Dora with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 sitter.
