About: I love dogs. Friends call me the whisperer. I lost my Princess 2 years ago to cancer and I find that this is the best medicine for me. I love to travel so having another baby right now is not in the cards. Taking care of your baby is the next best thing. I have had people fly me out to Portland, California, and New York to pet sit for them. I absolutley love it. Some of the dogs I have cared for were sick or new family members. I love to take them on new adventures but only if Mom and Dad are okay with it. I also love to train, play, and hug on them. My only job is taking care of your dog, so I am with them the entire day and night. Sometimes they will go on a golf cart ride with me. My yard is not fenced in so your dog would be walked regularly. There are plenty of grassy areas next to and accross the street from me. If there is a schedule you have for the dog that is what will be followed.
About: My name is Meghan and my fiance and I live together with our friendly, standard poodle, Knightro and our new puppy, Mando. Both pups love any and all people + dogs. They would love to have some friends visit for stays! My fiance and I have grown up with pets our whole lives, We are both very active, and I work from home full time so we can give lots of walks, play time, give the best belly rubs, and whatever else your furry friends needs! I have plenty of experience working with animals. I am also found on the Wag dog walking app, and I have volunteered at animal shelters in the past such as S.A.F.E. pet care in Florida, and the Humane Society. We really love animals and can’t wait to meet your four legged family member :-) I work from home full time and i am off weekends so I have plenty of time to love & care for your pup :-) We don’t have a fenced in yard, but we have a wide open back yard that connects to a 3.5 mile + walking trail. The neighborhood has sidewalks and not near any busy roads. We have lots of space to roam inside the house as well, with extra rooms.
About: As a full time pet caregiver, I dedicate my entire day to making sure your furry family member gets the love, attention and structured routine they deserve. Full time care giver, I just need to know any special times for medicine or if the your furry family member needs any additional walks or potty breaks! I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly lab to keep your furry baby company. Customized play time, cozy nap times and a beautiful area for their walks.
About: I have done pet sitting for 2 months at one time all the way down to a weekend, drop ins, walks, and very basic training. We also adopted our dog when he was 4 months old. I am available to pet sit on the weekends and do drop ins during the week. I do work full time but have off Fri-Sun. Which is why I’d give your dog my full attention only on the weekends, hence my availability. If you need longer then a weekend, I would be more then willing to, if you are okay with the pup being alone while I work I have a very friendly pup who loves to play. He needs the socialization and will be an excellent companion while your dog is in our care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, including Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Cane Corsos, and many others. My love for animals goes far beyond simply caring for them—they truly become family. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. If you choose me as your pet sitter, you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member will be treated with patience, compassion, and plenty of love every step of the way Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I currently work part-time, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., which allows me plenty of time each day to provide attentive care before and after work. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’m available to give them the love and attention they deserve. On the weekends, I’m completely off, giving me even more flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and spend quality time with them. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. In my client’s home, I strive to keep your pet on their normal schedule by providing fresh food and water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed and with instructions), and plenty of affection. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while I’m there. To give you peace of mind, I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to their individual needs.
“Thank you so much for the Excellent care of my fur babies. Pics were sent of drop in visit. My pups enjoyed it. I will definitely book her again when I go on vacation.”
“Maria is the BEST! Our old diabetic cat is spicy and stuck in her ways. Maria is so patient with our cat’s temperament and slowly has won her over. She successfully administers her insulin shots and even manages to pet her. Maria thoroughly communicates and sends daily pictures and videos. Words can’t describe how grateful we are to Maria. My only concern is that she could be booked or unavailable when we need her because she is so popular & amazing. lol Thanks Maria!! 😻”

About: What sets me apart is the personal attention, patience, and genuine love I give every pet in my care. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and happy. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs extra playtime and exercise, a calm companion, puppy potty breaks and basic routine reinforcement, or gentle care for a senior pet, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning and evening walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so pet sitting is something I genuinely look forward to—not just another job. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, dependable care while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure pets have fresh water, appropriate meals, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’m also careful about doors, gates, leashes, medications, and anything else that could affect their safety. For senior pets, puppies, or pets with special routines, I’m happy to provide extra attention and follow detailed instructions. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
About: I’ve raised, fostered, and cared for a variety of animals since I was 7. My family, neighbors, and acquaintances have all come to me for pet advice and care.

I am a college student and working part time but I am completely available! My schedule is flexible and I can work around your request. Your pets are my main priority! I have full availability over the weekends as well. I have a fenced in yard, and the house is kept very tidy and clean so your precious fur-babies won’t be able to get into anything harmful to them. The house is spacious with a nice backyard with no pool as well.

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 Okahumpka 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 .
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.

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
