“This was our first time using Rover, so I was understandably a little nervous, but Madison was absolutely amazing. I would recommend her to anyone and would book her again without hesitation. We have two very big, rambunctious Pitties who can be a handful, but Madison took incredible care of them. She provided constant updates with detailed notes on how they were doing, including bathroom habits, food and water intake, and overall demeanor. Thank you, Madison, for taking such great care of our boys.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have two dogs of my own. I also fostered dogs throughout high school, which gave me experience caring for dogs with different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable getting to know each dog and following their individual routine, whether that means playtime, walks, feeding, or just some extra attention and company while their owner is away. I’m currently a PA student, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have flexibility especially on my off days weekends. I’m happy to work with you to find drop-in times that fit your pet’s normal routine! I know every pet has their own routine and personality, so I’ll always follow the instructions you provide and make sure they’re comfortable in their own home. During drop-ins, I’ll take care of feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, walks if needed, and of course plenty of attention. I’ll also send updates and pictures so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away

About: I love small dogs! I have had two dogs in my life. I want to interact with small dogs before I take the decision to have another dog. My only pet at the moment is a goldfish. I’m currently working part time. You can expect my full attention during the weekends and my attention on weekdays. I take really good care of small dogs I only have a goldfish at the moment. My apartment is gated and we have enough space to walk during the afternoon or night. I have an extra room if your dog prefers places without loud noises

About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life, from big breeds like German Shepherds to small ones like Maltipoos, so I'm comfortable with every size and energy level. For the past four years I've raised my own dachshund on my own, which taught me how much routine, patience, and attention to small details matter for a dog's happiness. I'm active and reliable, so your pup gets a real walk, not a rushed lap around the block. I'll treat your dog the way I treat mine, and keep you updated with photos so you never have to wonder how the walk went. work a part-time schedule that leaves my Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays completely open, so I'm available around the clock on those days for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. Pet care is already part of my everyday routine since I have my own dachshund, so morning walks, feeding schedules, and keeping a dog active and happy come naturally to me. On my open days, your pup gets my full attention and a consistent schedule you can count on week after week. In your home, I follow your pet's routine exactly as you set it, from feeding times and portions to walks, play, and any medications. I keep fresh water out, clean up after every meal and walk, and leave your home as tidy as I found it. On walks, I keep a steady pace matched to your dog's size and energy, stay alert to traffic and other dogs, and always use a secure leash. I send photo updates after every visit, and if anything seems off with your pet's appetite, energy, or health, I'll let you know right away.

About: Hi, I’m Danya! If you’re looking for someone who understands that your pet isn't just an animal, but a cherished member of your family, you’ve found the right match. :) With years of hands-on experience, I treat your pet's time with me as a specialized staycation, turning your absence into a relaxing, high-quality vacation tailored entirely to their comfort. Whether I am caring for dogs, cats, birds, or bunnies, my goal is to blend your exact daily routine with a premium level of attention that keeps them happy and stress-free. For dogs, their staycation includes maintaining their familiar walking structures and routines to keep them active and content. Cats enjoy a peaceful, pampering routine where fresh food and water bowls are constantly maintained, litter boxes are kept pristine, and they receive patient, one-on-one interaction on their own terms. My versatile care also extends to specialized pets; I am well-versed in providing a calm, clean oasis and precise dietary handling for birds, too! By focusing on total comfort and detail-oriented care, I ensure your pets are living their best lives at home while you enjoy your time away. As a student, my academic calendar is set well in advance, my availability is steady, predictable, and highly dependable. I manage my time meticulously to ensure that school never interferes with the explicit promises, time slots, and routines we set for your fur baby! Inviting someone into your private space requires an immense amount of trust. Because I value that trust, my goal is to leave both your pet and your home in pristine condition. When I perform drop-in visits or walks, I treat your property with the same high level of care and respect that I give to your fur baby.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver working from home as a freelance graphic designer. My flexible schedule allows me to give your pets all the attention, care, and companionship they need throughout the day. I have years of hands-on experience with pets of all sizes and temperaments—including high-energy pups, cuddle bugs, and those who need a little extra TLC. I previously studied veterinary technology, so I’m comfortable with a variety of needs and love connecting with animals on a deeper level. My husband (also an animal lover who works from home) and I live in a cozy, pet-friendly townhome with a large green space right out back—perfect for walks, playtime, and fresh air. I also enjoy taking my clients’ dogs to Peace Mound Park or the Hollywood Dog Beach for a change of scenery and some extra enrichment. I also love caring for cats and have years of experience with them, both personally and professionally. I had a cat of my own for many years—she was truly my best friend—so I understand just how special the bond between cats and their people can be. I’m patient, gentle, and always respectful of their unique personality. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, medication (if needed), and giving cats the space or affection they prefer. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or a cozy nap, your pet will be treated like part of the family from the moment they arrive. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I’d love to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾 I work from home as a freelance graphic designer, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to be fully present with the pets I care for.

Caring for animals brings me joy while working from home and i love the companionship they provide. I mostly care for pets in my own home, which is safe, pet-friendly, and peaceful. I create a calm environment, follow their routines closely, and always prioritize their comfort, health, and happiness. I give updates to owners regularly for peace of mind and carefully follow any special instructions to ensure a great experience for both pet and parent.

About: I’ve loved and cared for pets my entire life, including my own sweet pup, Ebony, who has special medical needs and follows a strict routine. My experience extends to cats and dogs with unique requirements, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and compassion. I know our pets are family, and it’s my joy to be a trusted extension of that family whenever your schedule needs an extra helping hand. Pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine because it’s something I’ve always done. As someone who works from home, I take frequent breaks to care for and check on the well being of pets under my care. From feeding, walks, and playtime to administering medications and sticking to consistent schedules, caring for pets is just a normal part of my day. With my own dogs, Ebony (who has special needs) and Ivory, I’m already used to structuring my time around what pets require to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s daily visits or occasional check-ins, making space for pet care in my week is something I truly enjoy and look forward to. In my home or my client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or administering medication—so they feel secure and cared for. I give plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, while also respecting any rules or boundaries you’ve set. My goal is always to create a calm, positive environment where your pet can feel at ease, even when you’re away.

About: One thing that you'll find with me is that I believe we all do the absolute best we can for our pets. It is so hard to trust your loved one with someone new, and I want to make that experience as painless as possible. You're doing the best for your pup by finding someone to watch them where they are most comfortable, and my job is to treat them as I would my own every step of the way. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule which allows me to ensure that I am taking all the time necessary to take care of your dog(s) while you are away. Just like people, every dog is different. I want to know what yours needs and enjoys so we can maximize our time together and have the best time possible. I am very active with my own dogs, but will absolutely cater to what matters to you most for yours.

About: I can assure you I will adapt to your pets' needs, even if extravagant to keep them happy, to assure they always feel secure and at home. I have dog shelter experience, dog sitting experience and experience with my own puppies as I have successfully raised and trained three. I am mostly always at home. If your dog is special needs, needs medication, or is a senior, I am always willing to learn how to take care of them. Otherwise, if you have any requests or so, ask away. I will not shy away or slack on the little things, especially if your pet really needs something. I am always right here if you happen to have any questions about my services. I have my own senior pup who I take care of. Daily walks and treats are a necessity! Pet care is incredibly dog-specific and what works for one might not work for the other. I think being flexible and listening to your dogs needs is a constant need. I care for dogs by following instruction not only from owner but pup, being open to their needs and regulating their emotions throughout our visit.

About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life! Ever since I was just 8 years old I had a passion to take care of all the beautiful fur babies in this world. I lived in Cuba the first few years of my life and me and my very supportive grandpa would rescue stray dogs and take care of them. I made him make a dog house right outside and would feed and bathe them. For 4 years I worked at a puppy store as a vet tech/store manger and always wanted a pet of my own but didn’t have the time to have one. Thanks to pet sitting i’m able to have the best of both worlds! Recently I decided to try new things and i’m currently working at a vet clinic as a vet assistant on my way to becoming a certified vet tech. I have lots of free time and will provide your baby with love and lots of attention. I’m working part time and have a lot of free time to play with your furry babies. I love going on a morning walk everyday right after meditating, I believe it helps me so much to get my day going. I also also enjoy evening walks and I love having a wonderful doggie to make those walks 10x better☺️ I have a very specious apartment with lots of room as well as a big outside area to walk your pet. I spend a lot of time at the park and will make sure to always leash your pet while i’m outside. I do not go to dogs park to keep your pet safe at all times as I don’t know how your dog or another dog will react so that’s not something you will ever have to worry about! If your pet is not friendly or reactive I don’t mind as long as i’m provided with the best way to handle your pet. Sometimes I will take care of more than one dog so please let me know beforehand if you’re not comfortable with that or if your pet is not friendly.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Sunshine Acres is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $24 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 October 2026, there are 7,381 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sunshine Acres. 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 Sunshine Acres. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Sunshine Acres after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sunshine Acres. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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 walker.
