“Jennifer was great! She took care of my 7 cats and 1 dog and all went smoothly. She contacted me with questions and sent me updates and pictures. She was very kind and my babies loved her. I will definitely use her again... if she will come back! ?”
“Holly was on time and extremely responsive. I was in a bind and needed someone next day to let Nash out in the evening and in the morning. She responded within 5min of me reaching out and we scheduled a meet and greet 1st thing in the morning and she was on time and extremely professional. On both days she was on time and walked him as expected and communicated updates and pictures. Really put my mind at ease while I was out of town”
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, had cats through childhood. I’ve pet sat for all of my friends and family and have been trusted to maintain their pets. I own two dogs myself, Willa and Toothless, that are both my best friends. I’m a dog lover through and through and will love you pets like my own! I currently work Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday from 9am to 4:30pm. I can work around this schedule to drop in on your fur babies! I can check in on your pets while respecting your home. If you crate train the dogs, I can remain with them for a while so that they’re not alone and locked up all day. I love hanging out with dogs and can even bring my pup if they like company!
“My dogs were happy to meet Miss Omi. She was super kind and communicates a lot, which made me feel at ease leaving my pups in her care. Archie is a barker, but she didn’t seem to mind that he has nervous energy and worked to get him comfortable with her. Will book again!”
“Becky was fabulous with our new puppy Luna. She did her first meet at the same time as the first walk. Luna was so happy with her. Becky was so great about entering our home and updating us the entire time. The pictures were a huge bonus. We look forward to Luna and Becky becoming great friends :)”
“My dog Hazel absolutely enjoyed walking with Dustin!! She waited for him at our parents’door every time he pulled his car at the drive way. He sent us details about how she walked everyday, which made us feel totally at ease on our trip. We highly recommend him!! 🐕 Thank you Dustin😊🙏”
“Carolina is the BEST! Her connection with the dogs is amazing and wonderful to watch; as is their response to her. She is highly qualified, but more important, she has a natural affinity for the animals in her charge. I highly recommend her to care for your precious pet.”
“Liz did a great job walking my 8 year old dog twice a day while I was out of town for work. She was very communicative, responded timely, and prompt, even with the early morning walk time. Both my dog and my 5 month old baby took very well to Liz’s wonderful and kind demeanor. I am so happy I found her on Rover.”
About: Please note: my phone goes on do not disturb at 10pm. If you reach out after 10pm, please be patient and know that I WILL respond to you IMMEDIATELY in the a.m. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and currently share my home with three cats and a 30-year-old Amazon parrot. My pets are my family, and that’s exactly how I treat the animals in my care. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities — from snuggly lap cats to high-energy dogs. You can count on me to follow your pet’s routine, keep you updated, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m currently not working, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet consistent attention and care throughout the day. Pet care isn’t something I fit in around a busy schedule — right now it IS my schedule. For house sitting I treat your home with the same respect I’d want shown to my own. I follow your pet’s established routine closely, keep doors and gates secured, and I’m attentive to your pet’s behavior and needs at all times. I have three cats of my own, so I understand how important a calm, safe environment is for animals.
About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.

I’m currently available and flexible with my schedule. Call me or text me for any additional details regarding scheduling. Looking forward to working with you. I don’t currently have pets. So I can give all my attention to your furry friends. I don’t have a fenced yard so leashes are required.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, there is nothing more special to me that providing a nice walk and care for a loving dog. I just moved here from Boston and am homesick for my parents dog which is why it is important for me to meet and give love to other dogs! My family dog is a large boxer/ lab/ Great Dane mix so I am used to being around large (friendly) dogs. Sizes and breeds are not important to me as long as they are friendly and love taking walks as much as I do. If there is anything special your dog needs, I am there to help and provide the best care I can offer. I look forward to meeting your dog! I work full time 8 am-6 pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday, 11 am-8 pm on Fridays. I am available for drop in at 7 am and 7 pm MTWS and 9 am, 9 pm F I don’t work on Thursdays and Sundays and am free as long as my children are welcome! I have a fenced in yard (1/2 acre). I also have a great neighborhood to walk in. If your dog is crate trained I have a large crate they can use as well as a separate bedroom they can stay in if you’d like.
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 2. I love fur babies more anything. In fact, I wanted to be a veterinarian for the longest time so in high school, I took 4 years of vet assisting, shadowed at a vet clinics and became certified vet assistant! As I got older, I ultimately switched career paths. I work from home now in corporate event planning. This gives me the flexibility to be home with my pets and hopefully take care of yours as well! I do work full time, but fortunately work from home which gives me plenty of flexibility! My pups always get plenty of play time during the work day! Boarding would be perfect. I do have the time to be able to go on walks as well. I have a big fenced yard and have my own dogs. They are all very friendly and love playing with eachother and other dogs. They would love to have another friend to play with!

“Rinske is just amazing and I’m so glad she is can walk my fur baby for me. She is always punctual despite her hectic life, trustworthy, and so cheerful and sunny that she brightens the day with her smile as soon as she arrives. She is experienced with dogs, and I have no problem entrusting my dog into her care. She even managed to come and help me out at a very short notice, which was absolutely amazing. Truly, if you are looking for somebody to take care of your fur babies, look no further, you just found her!!!”

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 Tavares. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
