“Sharyn took excellent care of our dogs, especially Coco who is diabetic and requires extra attention. We were away on vacation for 18 days and very far away from home, so having someone as attentive and dependable as Sharyn gave us a great peace of mind. She not only handled all the daily tasks related to caring for the dogs, but also took care of our mail and even put out the trash for pickup. Sharyn sent us pictures of the dogs every time she visited, which helped us to feel connected and reassured while we were away. We truly appreciated knowing that our dogs were in such good hands. I highly recommended Sharyn and would not hesitate to trust her with our pets again”

About: Hi! I’m a true animal lover with a big heart for both dogs and cats. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether your pup needs long walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet companionship and gentle care, I’m happy to match their unique personality and routine. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet sitting in your home. Whether your puppy needs patience, playtime, and consistency, or your senior dog needs a slower pace and extra TLC, I have experience providing attentive, compassionate care for both. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and keep your furry family members happy in their own familiar environment.

I highly recommend Joey & will definitely be booking with him whenever I need someone for Titus. Very courteous, honest, & dependable young man.”

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.

About: Apart from caring for dogs of friends and family, I’ve also worked in a veterinary clinic and have volunteered at the animal shelter in my hometown! Animals are a huge part of my life and I hope they always will be. I do work full time, but my schedule changes every week. Some weeks I have more free time than others. I’m looking to fill that time with lots of animal love! I have no pets at home since my dog passed away in September of 2023. I live in a two bedroom apartment with two dog parks that are mostly empty during the day. I am a non smoker and I’m very active. I also have reliable transportation.

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 always loved being around cats and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient and gentle, especially with cats that may be shy or need time to warm up. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. I’ll treat every cat like they’re my own and make sure they’re happy while their owner is away. I currently work at night at Publix but I have open availability in the morning and I can work around my schedule. And make time for your animal I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while in my care. In a client’s home, I follow their routine and instructions closely, keep their space clean, and make sure they have fresh food and water. I’m respectful of both the pet and the owner’s home, and I’ll give plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I’m Alyssa, a TRUE animal lover. For the past 7 years, I’ve enjoyed caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and species. Dogs, cats, bunnies, birds…you name it! I open my heart & home to animals in need through volunteer fostering, primarily caring for cats and kittens with medical needs. Full-time pet sitting has allowed me to continue doing what I love most: giving animals the care, attention, and love they deserve. Have a unique pet, or a pet with unique needs? I have extensive experience administering medication, including insulin injections, and I'm happy to meet anxious or nervous pets wherever they're at. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I'd love nothing more than to become a trusted member of your pet's pack! Pet sitting is my full-time job! I'm flexible, and can typically make a wide variety of days and times work. Just let me know what your animal needs, and I will always do my best to accommodate! I understand some animals may need time to warm up to me! I always follow my client's instructions, and promise to take meticulous care of your fur babies. I am detail-oriented by nature!

About: 🐶 Instead of simple pet sitting, dog walking or drop-in’s, you are investing in a well-mannered companion during enriching activities with a certified professional dog trainer. 🏠 HOUSE SITTING w/ TRAINING The ultimate luxury training package: While a House Sitting stay on Rover does not include an active, full-scale training curriculum, your dog will benefit from my expert background.

What's Included: • Daily structured training sessions covering your specific goals. • Intensive behavior modification and management (separation anxiety, house rules, manners). • Daily video progress reports and a comprehensive hand-off workshop. 💎 Every immersive stay is completely tailored to your behavior goals and includes a complimentary hand-off training lesson at conclusion of stay. Having this expertise assures optimal experience in real world proofing. *Select "House Sitting" on my profile to book a premium board & train! 🏡 IN-HOME PRIVATE TRAINING LESSONS Get professional behavior coaching right where the issues happen! Perfect for backyard recall, doorbell barking, or crate training. What's Included: • 30 or 60 minutes of intensive one-on-one behavior work with brain breaks & rest. • Real-world coaching in your home or immediate neighborhood. • Clear homework steps to keep your progress on track. *Select "Drop-In Visits" on my profile to book your private lesson! 🐾 STRUCTURED LEASH MANNERS WALKS No more pulling!

Drop off your dog for a structured day of professional behavior training!

I participate in local events, fundraising and Hound Around Town monthly. I have since expanded my efforts with Husky Haven of Florida as a transport for rescues. I’ve worked at Disney’s pet resort & dog daycare in downtown Orlando. 💯 My base rate listed on my profile covers standard, high-quality care (feeding, potty breaks, and companionship). Since I am a certified dog trainer, the context described above is offered as an active Training Add-On Package for an extra $15 per day. Just be sure to brief me in your contact message and we can discuss together further in detail. With dog training as my core, and having an Executive Assistant professional background of over 20 years, calendar maintenance comes natural and my availability is easily workable around varying schedules. If I’m not at the dog park or training, I can be available for services as necessary. I focus on science-backed methods that are mindful and effective, while integrating enrichment, affection, stimulation (both mentally and physically), rest breaks, sniffy walks, play time and cuddles. I prioritize the pet parents requests and instructions, aligned with fulfillment that meets the dog’s foundational needs.

Jessie took such good care of my babies! I just moved to the area and was nervous about trusting a new person to care for my shy kittens and after this visit I know they are in safe hands. She sends many updates, asks all the right questions and in the event of an emergency I know she is the right person to get them the care they need. She is my new go-to and I'm so pleased with her work! ❤️

Sharyn took excellent care of our dogs, especially Coco who is diabetic and requires extra attention. We were away on vacation for 18 days and very far away from home, so having someone as attentive and dependable as Sharyn gave us a great peace of mind. She not only handled all the daily tasks related to caring for the dogs, but also took care of our mail and even put out the trash for pickup.

Diane did drop-in visits for our pets Kiba, Nigel and Maryanne this past weekend and did an absolutely phenomenal job. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly attentive to their individual needs every time she came by. It's not always easy to leave your pets at home, but Diane made the whole experience stress-free from start to finish. We came back to two happy, healthy, well-looked-after pets — which says everything. If you're looking for a pet sitter who genuinely cares and takes the job seriously, look no further. Highly recommend!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Orlovista

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Orlovista is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 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 5,553 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Orlovista. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Orlovista. 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.

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.

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.
