“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! ?”

“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😊🙏”


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.
About: I have taken care of my family’s pets for practically my whole life, and its always been a joy to me!! I treat them all like they are practically mine! I am a freelance artist and I have a small part time job on the side, so I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet!!! My schedule is extremely flexible! I can care for your pet in home by spending time cleaning up after them, making sure they are fed and watered, and that they get all the playtime and snuggles they need!
“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 part-time and have the ability to create my own schedule so I am very capable of maintaining your needs and wishes for your fur bestie! 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!
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: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m currently a dog sitter for my mom whenever she goes out of town. At most, I have taken care of 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time. I have a 6 month training in pet grooming where I learned how to read the signs of a scared or uncomfortable dog/cat, and will always respect their space when it comes to a stranger in their area! I’m currently working part time, so it’s easy for me to stop by and check on your pets! It’s more of a hobby for me than a way to make money. I love all pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is comfortable with me. Whether that’s giving them the space they need, or making sure they received plenty of affection, or simply making sure they’re in the home!
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, administering medications, and providing lots of love and attention, I treat every dog like family. I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. With my open summer schedule, I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to pet care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I’m available throughout the day to give your dog the attention and care they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I truly enjoy spending my free time with furry friends! Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for your pet. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease, just like part of the family. I follow feeding routines, provide fresh water, regular potty breaks, walks, and lots of playtime and affection. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s familiar environment and stick closely to your routines and instructions. I make sure they feel secure, entertained, and loved while you’re away, keeping stress to a minimum. Cleanliness, communication, and care are always top priorities.

“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.”

“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.”
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.
“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!!!”

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 Tavares. 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 Tavares.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tavares. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
