“Carin was wonderful to help out by walking our dog when we had to be gone for an extended period of time. She handled him nicely and communicated well. Would absolutely use her again.”
About: From pups to great Danes, turtles to amazon green parrots, fish and more, love them all. Cats are great but only can do drop in visits. I work from home and pets will go out supervised in the yard and walks, weather permitting( down pour rain). Letting pets out IS MY PRIORITY!! I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!
About: I will treat your fur babies like they are my own and would love to meet them. I have experience in training dogs and taking care of senior dogs. I work from home, therefore I am available from Monday through Sunday and your pet can stay overnight or if needed just during the day. I have a fenced in yard and a King shepherd female, which is friendly with other dogs therefore your fur baby would have a playmate to enjoy the time here. I will play with them, feed them and also give them treats.
“My fur child Ben loved Cheryl! She walked a 100 lb lap dog weekday mornings for two weeks, and he was very happy. Cheryl was prompt, reliable, affectionate and attentive to our boy. I will check her availability again in June when I will need a couple more days. Thank you Cheryl!”

Most importantly, I understand these are not pets, but family members and I'll care for them as if they were mine. I'm a stay at home mom with my children entering their teen years. With their independence I have a flexible schedule to fit your needs. I will help you keep your fur babies routine. Whether that's going for a walk, playing in the backyard or just snuggling on the couch. I will make sure they are fed, cleaned up after and loved.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10, my mom owns a rescue business. I’ve helped her with dogs, cats, and reptiles. We always have animals in and out of the house, my mom babysits many animals and I help her take care of fosters like cats and dogs. I’m currently out of school and I am open anytime, any day. I have a lot of time to take care of pets. I can walk or play with your animals! At home I have a fenced in area in the back yard to keep your pup safe! I have 3 other playful pups that would love to play with new animals!
About: I know what it's like to hand your dog over to someone else — that flicker of worry, even when you trust them. Our dogs aren't just pets. They're family. They greet us at the door like we've been gone for years, they curl up next to us on the hard days, and they love us without any conditions at all. Trusting someone else with that is not a small thing. So here's what I want you to know: when I'm with your dog, I'm not just watching them — I'm watching out for them. Every walk, every outing, every minute we spend together, I take seriously. Not because it's a job, but because I know exactly what it means to love a dog like family, and I know what it means to be the one responsible for them when you can't be. My goal isn't just to keep your dog safe. It's to give you real peace of mind — so that wherever you are, you can stop thinking about whether they're okay, and just know they are. Loved, looked after, and genuinely cared for, the same way I'd want someone to care for mine. Your fur baby is in good hands. I won't take that lightly. More information about me: Dogs have been part of my life since I was 10 years old, when I got my first German Shepherd Dog puppy named Storm. I built him a pen in the laundry room — and slept in there with him for weeks, just to keep him company. That was the start of it. Since then, I've owned and raised about a dozen German Shepherd Dogs, and I've trained dozens of dogs over the years for myself, friends, and family. Today my pack is three: my two German Shepherd Dogs; Ella (10) and Sadie (8), my Belgian Malinois, Mila (2.5). Living with working breeds has shaped how I think about exercise — it's not about wearing a dog out until they're panting. It's about engaging their mind as much as their body. That's the philosophy behind everything I offer. A walk should have a purpose. A trek should be an adventure, not just a loop around the block — somewhere new to sniff, explore, and think. Outing and training sessions build real confidence, not just compliance. I tailor every visit, every outing and every training session to your dog's personality and energy, whether that's a relaxed neighborhood walk, an early morning outing to beat the Florida heat, a solo trek to a trail or pet-friendly store, or focused training time. Multiple daily walks and custom treks are built around what works for your family — just ask. Based in Weeki Wachee, serving west Hernando County. I treat every dog I work with like one of my own. I am fully insured and will provide real references upon request. This is my full-time job — not a side gig, not something squeezed in around another career. When I'm with your dog, that's where my attention is. Every walk, every outing, every training session. Whether I'm in your home or out on a walk or trek, your dog gets my full, undivided attention — no other dogs, no distractions. I follow your routine and any instructions you give me for feeding, medication, or specific needs, and I treat your home with the same respect I'd want for my own: doors locked, things put back where they belong, and your dog's space left clean and comfortable. For walks and treks, I make sure water is available and accidents are cleaned up before I leave. For overnight stays, I keep your dog on their normal schedule as much as possible — same feeding times, same bedtime routine — so there's as little disruption to their world as I can manage. I'm also comfortable administering medication when needed. At the end of the day, my approach is simple: I treat every dog and every home like it's my own.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 3, growing up as a dog owner with a couple cats at a time, as well. I love written instructions and schedules to follow for feeding and potty time and am attentive to detail. I can send photo and video updates as often as requested. I’m currently working part time with some flexibility built in to help fur baby parents with pet care. Let’s come up with a schedule that meets your needs! I can offer overnight stays if needed and extra time spent with pets on top of feedings, walks, treats, and toilet times. The more details you provide about what you need, the better. I’ll keep things tidy for your return, too.
“Sophia has been an excellent choice for me and Lucy. You can tell she loves dogs in how she talks to Lucy and rubs and scratches her. She comes on time and takes the full half hour and stays even longer to talk to her and me and rub her. She is very pleasant to talk to, smiles alot and basically a very caring, pleasant, soft spoken person. You can't find someone to love and walk your pet better than this. Thank you Rover for finding Sophia for Lucy and Me. Sincerely, Michael Roth”
“You can tell from the moment he walks in the home, Corey is experienced dog handler. Professional, punctual and an all around nice guy. We look forward to using him again for my moms 60 lb American Pitbull terrier.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the day I was born. I’ve grown up around hunting dogs and cared for a dog with severe health issues including epilepsy. I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me. I’m home full time, able to provide pet care whenever. I’m currently searching for a job so this may change in the future, but for now I am an open book. My dogs ran our household, one of my dogs was missing a leg and still needed to play frisbee and run every day. I like to stay active with my dogs and my clients’ as well!
“This is our first time using Rover and Makayla was fantastic. Our pups took to her immediately! She is wonderful with them- engaged them in play, took them for a walk and spoiled them with treats. Makayla is conscientious, responsible and friendly. We are grateful to have found her and highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

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 Sugarmill Woods. 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 Sugarmill Woods.

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 Sugarmill Woods. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
