Worked good with my schedule being midnights. Made sure she went potty and checked her food before she left for the night. Took pictures of the walk. Very easy to coordinate with Carolina

About: I truly believe every pet deserves patience, love, and full attention—especially when their humans are away. What sets me apart is the care I put into making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved at all times. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s extra cuddles, longer walks, or fun playtime, I make sure they’re getting not just the basics, but real companionship. I’m calm, reliable, and never in a rush—I give pets the time and energy they deserve. Your pet won’t just be looked after—they’ll be genuinely cared for. I work part-time and remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care. Since I’m home most of the day, I’m able to give pets the attention they need—whether that’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or just being there to keep them company. My lifestyle allows me to stick to their routines and provide consistent, reliable care without rushing. Pets aren’t just a side task in my day—they’re a priority. At my home, your pet will be treated like family. I have two sweet and friendly cats who love the company of other animals and are happy to play or simply share their space. I provide a calm, cozy environment where your pet can feel safe and loved. If you prefer care in your own home, I’m happy to come to you and follow your pet’s usual routine. I’ll make sure they’re fed, walked, played with, and given plenty of attention—whatever they need to feel happy and relaxed while you’re away.

About: I’m a counselor during the school year and have side jobs to supplement my income. Kids and animals love me as I love them even more! ;) For the pets that I fall in love with, I will maintain those services. I have a therapy dog that works along side me. I’ve given medicine, bathe, love on them and will be their fill in mommy/daddy until you return. ;) I’m also open to discussing the costs. ***Currently I don’t have any pets of my own so I have a lot of flexibility. The therapy dog is a volunteer. I have a lot of flexibility as this is my only job at the moment. I am off during the summers so I enjoy working with animals. During the school year I’m a school counselor. I have flexibility with the job as I’m able to leave for a lunch break/check on your pup. Also, my counselor hours are 8:15-3:30. I am in early and off early to be able to check on your animals. *** I will be in town for the holidays :) I feed them, provide love, walks, and play with them. I am happy to have your kennel here for them if it helps them feel more comfortable. That is not a requirement though. I prefer going to your home only because the animals tend to do better in their own house.

We were visiting family in Sarasota and last minute needed a dog walker for the day. Christine was available the night before and walked our dog twice for us while we were gone all day. She sent us photos of both walks which was great. Highly recommend and will use her again if we are back in Sarasota with our dog!

About: You can trust that your furry family is in the best hands! As a loving cat and dog owner for over 23 years, I've gained extensive, hands-on experience. My own sweet dog Ruby and beloved cat Frenzie, both crossed the rainbow bridge at nearly 18 years old, giving me profound expertise and patience with senior and special-needs animals. I am reliable, compassionate, and ready to spoil your pets rotten. I currently homeschool my daughter and have a lot of availability. If I am not home, my animal-loving husband, who works from home, often is. I have a screened in lanai where they can bask in the sun. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood, perfect for walks around the area. I am available at your home for long or short walks, as well as time to love on and keep your pet company.

About: I have been a long time dog owner and love spending time with dogs of all ages and sizes. I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have pet-sat for many friends and neighbors growing up. I currently work for an animal shelter so I’m used to working with a variety of dogs and cats and their various personalities. I know every dog is different so I customize each experience so that it’s right for your pet. If your dog likes to run, I’ll run with them. If they like to play fetch, I’ll play with them. Whatever your dog needs, I’ll be there for them. I’ve had many dogs with different personalities so I’m used to changing my methods to keeping them happy and healthy. I work flexible hours, with only a couple days on site vs. remote, so I have the ability to spend time with your pets and give them the love they need. I provide care in clients home. I’m currently only doing dog walks and drop in visits; no overnight stays right now. This may be an option in the future.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for pets of different personalities, ages, and needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and quirks, and I’m happy to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, giving lots of attention and affection, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also a big believer in communication, so I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers a quiet day with lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they need. 🐾❤️ My schedule varies, but I have flexibility throughout the week and can work with your pet’s routine. I’m available for daytime walks and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that gives your pet the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet in a safe, comfortable environment. I understand every pet has different routines and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and other care instructions. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: I will treat your babies just like mine. I will take them to dog parks, on my boat, or adventures if you'd like and if theyre adventurous. I have lifejackets for all sizes. Also, I'm amazing with senior dogs if they just want to relax at home. Currently, my dog is 13 years old that I've had since she were puppy. The most important would be away from your pups are 4.5 hours. I own and run a boat tour business in the area. Most of my trips are 4 hours max. Whatever your rules are at your home is what I do. When I take them out on adventures I always keep them on leash unless it is gated. Even if they have recall, I don't chance that.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, providing personalized care and attention to their unique needs. With two years of experience caring for Bella, a playful bulldog, Precious, a sweet Calico cat, and my own cat, Tucksy, I’ve gained a deep understanding of how to handle different personalities and routines. My goal is to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine as I have availability everyday, through 8 AM to 6 PM, this doesn’t include the boarding services. This allows me to provide consistent and dedicated care for your pets while managing my school schedule. I make sure to give each pet the attention they deserve within these hours, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just cuddling. Your pet will always be in good hands during my available times! I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets in their own homes. I offer pet sitting services in clients’ homes, where pets feel most at ease. I ensure their environment remains familiar and secure by following any specific routines or preferences you’ve outlined. I take extra precautions to pet-proof the space, keeping harmful items out of reach, and providing a calm atmosphere for them to relax. You can trust that your pet will receive personalized, one-on-one care while you’re away.

About: My husband, Trevor, and I both grew up with dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, fish, and he even had several birds! Over our years together we have loved three dogs, a bearded dragon, and a turtle. We have also been relied on, and trust by, many friends and family members to take care of their pets while at work or away. We have an especially soft spot for dogs and are taking our unbeatable belly rubs full-time with drop-in care and walking for small to medium (up to 40lbs) dogs. Larger dogs will be considered if they are a companion to a smaller dog. I also provide drop-in cat and other pet care upon request. Pet care is my (Morgan) full-time job, so your pet will receive my full time and attention during each play-date or walk. I am available Monday through Friday mornings and and afternoons from 6am-3pm, with some evening availability on Mondays and Fridays from 5-8pm. Additionally, I am available all day on most weekends. Please reach out with your pet’s needs - I can’t wait to meet them! Tail waggin walks, play, and cozy cuddles await! Pet care is my full-time job, so you can rest assured your pup will be well supervised and cared for throughout the play-date. I am available Monday through Friday mornings and and afternoons from 6am-3pm, with some evening availability on Mondays and Fridays from 5-8pm. Go on - schedule that tail waggin walk or play-date! When you book a walk or play-date with me - you and your pet become family. You can expect the same level of care and respect as we give to our baby boys. Barker, our chunky frenchie, and Gus, our hilarious little chorkie, receive daily walks and playtime at the dog park and yard (weather accommodating). When the rain or heat keeps us in, Barker loves to chase a ball or play tug of war, while Gus enjoys scratches and a cozy nap! Whatever your pet’s speed - I am here to accommodate and ensure they receive the highest level of care, always.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 10. I raised 2 liters of puppies with my family. Neighbors and friends have looked to me to take care of their dogs because of how much I enjoy doing it. I am currently home for the summer before I move and start my full-time job in August. I have lots of free time and love spending time with animals. I would be more than happy to take care of your pets whenever you need it! I'm very high energy, but also very tidy and would watch over your pet and home very nicely. I have my own dog who I have raised on my own, I have also walked and watched dogs consistently since I was in high school.

About: Ever since I was young I have been surrounded by a diverse array of dogs. Most of my early dog experience came from working with my cousins many dogs throughout the years: a rottweiler, golden retriever, and several bernese mountain dogs. Later I transitioned to walking other dogs around my town and for anyone who asked. Although I do not have a dog of my own, I own two shelter cats that I love almost too much (haha), and I care for every dog as if it were my own pet. I graduated from college a few years ago and I am actually currently back in school pursuing a different path while also doing dog sitting on the side I am great at following any sort of individualized instructions needed when I am visiting; specific feeding directions, or medication instructions. I like to ensure the best care and safety for all of the pets I take care of. When at my house, I enjoy taking them to the dog park that is right next door. There are also a few trails nearby that I frequent

Taylor did very well with Teddy. He is a little skittish, but she was able to get him to trust her. I will use Taylor again when I have the opportunity to go out to dinner or to a ball game. She was very attentive to the dog and played with him to make him feel more comfortable.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Osprey

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Osprey on Rover is $21.09 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 1,692 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Osprey. 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 Osprey. 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 Osprey.

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 Osprey. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
