“Brook came for almost a week to let our three senior dogs out at lunch. Brooke was timely and very good with our dogs, all of which have different personalities! She was also very responsible in her communication to let us know when she was leaving the house so we knew when to make sure we are home. Her previous experience made it easy for us to know that she would be able to handle anything and we look forward to our next trip out of town, when Brooke will come and house sit our three guys.”

About: I have always lived with pets. Ever since I was little we have had dogs. In addition to dogs, in the past my family has had chickens, brids, a guinea pig, cats, fish, and even snakes (I currently have 1 dog)! Animals are an important part of my life. I enjoy caring for dogs and other pets such as birds. It is easy for me to form bonds with animals, and I tend to gain their trust quite quickly. I have experience washing dogs, as well as clipping their nails and brushing fur. I am willing to learn any other skills required to care for your pet. It would be an honor for me to care for your pet with as much love and compassion as you do eveyday. I am free Monday-Thursday, making me a perfect choice for those dog owners who have a busy week! I have plenty of time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I will follow your pets exact routine so they experience minimal disruption. I enjoy providing sensory play for dogs, and providing one-on-one affection. I can also handle light chores such as bringing in your mail and watering plants as needed.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own animals since I was five years old, I’ve also worked with animal shelters as a volunteer and as a dog groomer. I love being around animals and forming bonds with them and I can’t wait to meet yours. I’m currently a college student at the University of Central Florida, and I’m looking to take care of animals in my free time while also studying for classes Depending on which services you require, I will make sure to follow them exactly as you need and for the best care of the animals
About: Pet parents love leaving their dogs in my care because they know they don’t have to worry. I take the time to learn your dog’s routine, send regular updates with quality photos, and provide a cozy home sanctuary where your pup will be loved and cared for like my own. I provide exclusive and personalized care by hosting dogs from only one family at a time, ensuring a true home-away-from-home experience. I’m an artist working out of my home studio, allowing plenty of flexibility throughout the week to offer hands-on care. I’m also available most weekends for boarding. Your dog will spend the day in a calm, loving home with a large, fully fenced yard — perfect for play, sunbathing, and safe exploration. Inside, pets enjoy a relaxed environment with cozy rest areas and plenty of attention. We will enjoy multiple walks per day in a quiet and safe neighborhood.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and recently moved to Orlando after graduating. I’m looking to spend my free time doing something I enjoy—caring for pets. I work Monday through Friday but can do check-ins before or after work, with full availability on weekends. I’m easygoing, reliable, and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and any preferences you have. Currently working a full-time job, available after 6:30pm on weekdays, and available all weekend. Can check on the pets prior or after work each day. Currently living an apartment with a local dog park. I’m a very active person and enjoy being outdoors. Can take your dog to local dog parks or nearby trails to go and walks.
About: My passion is making dogs feel loved, safe, and special. ❤️ I currently have two pups of my own who I’ve had for the past three years. I rescued them from Orange County Animal Services. They came from some very tough situations, so we’ve worked through quite a few challenges together, including generalized fear, separation anxiety, resource guarding, and overexcitement. These kinds of behaviors don’t scare me off! I’m one of those dog “extremists” who truly believes dogs are like little humans. They have their own personalities, fears, and struggles, and sometimes they just need a little extra patience, understanding, and reassurance. I also had the honor of loving my soul dog for 10 amazing years (rescued from OCAS as well!). He was a big dog who was reactive toward other animals, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs who need to be separated from other dogs or cats. I’m especially cautious when walking reactive dogs and will always prioritize their safety by keeping them at a comfortable distance from other animals. Beyond my own dogs, I’ve cared for many other pups over the years, including my brother’s and friends’ smaller dogs (yes, I love the little ones too!). I also spent time volunteering at Orange County Animal Services, which gave me the opportunity to meet and care for dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs. My sitter ideology is that I don’t want to just be someone who checks in, feeds your dog, and heads out the door. I want your dog to feel like they’re spending time with someone who genuinely enjoys having them around. 🐾♥️ I currently have a lot of flexibility. I’m a former high school English teacher but now I’m a stay at home dog mom, so I’m hoping to fill my weeks up with bookings! I especially love caring for dogs in their own homes. I think most pups are happiest when they can stay in their familiar surroundings, sleep in their own bed, and keep their normal routine while their people are away. It can also be a lot less stressful than introducing them to a new home, especially for dogs who are nervous, reactive, or just really attached to their own space. Since I have two dogs of my own, I prefer to keep everyone in their familiar environments rather than asking them to adjust to each other. It also means I can give your pup my full attention while I’m with them. 😊
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 10 years, and have always felt a special bond with them. When I was in my late teens my family adopted a Shepard-Lab mix named Callie, and she has been the light of our family ever since. Callie was only 3 months old when we adopted her so I was able to learn how to train her as a puppy as well as get experience with potty training and teething. I have since been dogsitting for many different types of dogs, ranging in age from puppy to senior, as well as different temperaments. I have experience with reactive dogs and dogs with epilepsy. I have stayed on top of their medications as well as any routines and exercises that they need. I love keeping structure for dogs, but also mixing in fun and play. I am a big fan of enrichment activities such as puzzles and games! I have a soft heart when it comes to dogs and would treat yours like my own. I work from home most of time so I have a flexible schedule for drop in visits and walks during the day. I have a vehicle to travel to your home or anywhere needed for your animal. I want to help your dog feel like their friend is coming over to visit them and take care of any needs your pup might have. I would love to keep you updated with pictures and videos as well :) I have flexibility allowing for drop-ins or walks during the weekdays. I am also available on the weekends. I keep my calendar up to date on any dates I may be unavailable. I am open to following the lead of the owner and sticking with your dog’s usual routine or taking any requests. Your dog’s safety and happiness comes first! I believe building trust with a dog is very important. If you have any specific needs or requests, I’d be happy to discuss.
“Lindsay was wonderful! She came by daily to take care of my beloved senior kitty and I was able to thoroughly enjoy my vacation because I knew he was in great hands. When I arrived home he was happy and well fed ?”

“Makenna is the best! We hired her for drop in visits to check on our house and elderly cat while we were away on vacation. She was quick to respond to requests, quick to communicate any concerns, flexible, friendly, and easy to work with. She also sent us beautiful pictures of our happy cat! We will definitely be booking her again.”

About: I will take care of any dog from small to large so bring it on! I owned a black lab mix growing up and that black ball of lightning lived the dream. Let's just say my background as a college baseball player worked perfectly into her fetching routine. You will get a high class, energetic, and caring sitter if you choose me. Experience includes Weimaraners, Daschund, Black Lab, Australian shepherd, Pomeranian, Bull Terrier, and a Boston Terrier. The only downfall of your dog being with me is they will never want to leave. You up for the risk? I know you are so pick up that phone and call me. I work remote so I am pretty flexible. I currently own a Pomeranian and Australian shepherd. Love dogs and taking care of them. I trained my own dogs. Pomeranians a rescue and the Australian was a puppy when I got them. I can handle all sizes and personalities. I care for my dogs by taking them outside at least 3x a day. Dogs eat at the same time. I understand boundaries between dogs so I make sure to keep watch. I also operated a dog training service when I lived in Daytona for basic commands so positive reinforcement with my dogs work best.
About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was little and have always had a dog. I love to volunteer at shelters and help too! I’ve always had a special place in my heart for furry angels. I’ll also send cute pics! :) I work from home so I can take your pup outside before work, at lunch, and after work. Also the weekends if you go away I can take care of doggies! Since I work from home I can come by your place to walk the pups when needed. 😊 I will make sure all instructions are followed and reach out if I have questions and give proactive updates! :)

“Sarah is fabulous and our little Nikita looks forward to seeing her on every visit! Very reliable, great at reporting back on how the visit went, and really a great find. She loves our pup almost as much as we do!???”

About: I have an equal love for dogs and cats, and I can take care of both. I love giving affection to my animals, and I love to take care of them, walk them and make sure that they have all their needs met when their owners are not around I want them to not even feel like there's a difference. I am currently a part-time substitute teacher at a private school so I do have time because I don't have full-time employment to care for your animals just as though I care for my kids at the school. My cat and any of my animals are always cared for clean litter boxes always freshwater and always fed number one priority to me is that your Animal is treated like mine. Both dogs and cats are a priority to me..
“I booked Samanntha to look after my cat Sam for a week while I was on holiday. We emailed back and forth a few times to discuss what I was looking for and when she came to meet Sam he fell in love with her, even offering her his belly for rubs by the end of the meeting. Right then I knew she was the one!! Plus she and I had a wonderful conversation as well! She was great at communicating, cleaned his litter every day, played with him, and sent pics and videos each day, even doing a video chat one day! I would definitely recommend her services, as she is friendly, kind and clearly loves animals!! Thank you, Samanntha!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes since 2014. I can handle picky eaters, special diets, and dogs that need lots of attention. I have a dachshund and a chow mix, and I would love to spoil your dogs like I spoil mine! I am a Scare Actor for Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios. I am available during the day before and after my shifts, which should be around 8 hours. I am able to give your dog treats, play time, and crate them if needed. I always make sure water bowls are full, especially in the heat.

About: With 6 years of dedicated experience caring for dogs of all life stages from energetic puppies to gentle seniors I provide deeply reliable, attentive pet care. Living steps from a popular Orlando park, I specialize in active, scenic outdoor walks. Because I lived with and consistently pet sat my sister's dog for years, I treat every cat and dog with true, family style devotion. My availability is perfectly tailored for before 6AM walks, after 5 PM weekday check ins and open, flexible weekend boarding, giving busy local owners total peace of mind. As a professional engineer with a structured 8 AM to 4 PM office schedule, my daily routine is highly predictable and reliable. I kick off my mornings with early bird energy, meaning I am fully available for brisk morning walks or drop in visits anytime before 6 AM to get your pet ready for the day.After sitting at a desk all day, getting home to active exercise is exactly what I need. My evening hours after 5PM are completely wide open, making me highly available for long park walks, dinner feedings, and playtime. Weekends are even more flexible for extended care. Because I cannot have a dog of my own right now, your cats and dogs get 100% of my focus, affection, and energy! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a highly secure, pet-friendly apartment equipped with a smart home system, allowing me to remotely verify locked doors and manage optimal lighting for your pets. I have dedicated cameras monitoring both the exterior entryway and the indoor living area, ensuring I can constantly check in on your pet visually even when I step out. Before any stay, I require a meet-and-greet to ensure a great fit. Because I do not own a dog of my own, your pet enjoys a stress-free environment as the exclusive center of attention. For cleanups, I keep a bissel green machine on hand to handle any accidental messes instantly, keeping the space pristine. As well as, living steps from a popular local dog park, I utilize secure, double clip leashes for all outdoor walks to guarantee zero risk of escape. I closely monitor the Florida heat and pavement temperatures, ensuring walks are safe, shaded, and well hydrated. During in home check ins, I strictly follow your specific entry, feeding, and locking instructions, and I will always send you photo updates and a detailed report card after every single visit.
“Yuen Ying is excellent with pets. She has a genuine care and earnestness about her. We can tell that our dog Panda was less restless due to having a play date in the middle of the day while we were at work.”

The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Orlando is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Orlando
I cannot recommend Hannah enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly flexible, understanding, and accommodating. She even offered to come over for a trial run to familiarize herself with Misha and her routine, and despite me being too sick to make that happen, she remained so kind and willing to help. I truly appreciated her patience and understanding during an already stressful weekend. Hannah followed every single instruction I provided, from Misha’s food and water to all the little details involving keys, fobs, and her daily care. What meant the most to me, though, was how genuinely patient and gentle she was with Misha. Misha is a very shy and timid dog, so earning her trust takes time. Hannah understood that right away and never tried to force interactions or overwhelm her. Instead, she took the time to learn her personality, give her space, and build that trust through patience, affection, and care. As a dog mom, leaving your baby with someone else can be scary but Hannah gave me genuine peace of mind knowing Misha was in caring and compassionate hands. I would absolutely trust her with Misha again, and I sincerely hope she’ll be willing to spend time with my girl in the future. Thank you so much, Hannah!! ❤️

Erika and Damian were fantastic! I felt no anxiety having them drop in to let my golden out for potty breaks / walks! They are amazing at communication, punctual, and take great photos and give many updates. My dog Sophia bonded with them right away as they have great vibes! Thank yall again for taking great care of my girl!!

Adriana is amazing! Not only did she save my birthday weekend by picking up this job at the last moment when another walker canceled- but she took the best care of all my babies. I have a large pack of elderly chi x’s and they were perfectly relaxed and happy when i returned! (Usually they are so stressed when i am gone for more than a day). The cats all loved her including Fitzgerald(he likes no humans except me) AND she kept me updated with lots of photos and details! 100 percent will book with her again- Thanks so much Adriana☺️

This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Mela! She was incredibly communicative, kind, and reassuring from the very beginning. She understood our anxieties about leaving our fur babies and went above and beyond to help us feel at ease while we were away. Every drop-in included plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about our pets and took the time to make them feel comfortable. Our pup is usually very nervous around new people, but Mela was so patient and sweet that she quickly gained her trust and helped her feel confident and relaxed. Knowing our pets were in such caring hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. We are so grateful for everything Mela did and would absolutely book with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and thoughtful pet sitter!

Layla was a wonderful sitter for our dog. We were in a bind and needed someone same day to drop in and do a visit and to feed our dog and let her potty. Layla went above and beyond to make sure our dog was fed, pottied, played with and loved. She sent nice pictures and gave us a great update to know she was cared for. Highly recommended Layla for pet care!!

Love, love, LOVED Tien!! I had a last minute booking for my girls and Tien glady accepted. She's thorough, sweet, and patient! My girls looked happy and well cared for! I will be rebooking and if you haven't booked with her yet, please do. You won't regret it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Orlando is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $33 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 5,440 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Orlando. 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 Orlando 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 Orlando with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
