“Our Old English Sheepdog Winston loves when Mary comes over to walk him! He just wants to go right out the door with her. He warmed up to her pretty quickly. She also will also feed him and give him fresh water. Also, Mary is so wonderful and the few time we’ve have had her come, she always is so cheerful and bubbly.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since before I can remember! I’ve befriended dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and temperaments (mostly medium-small breeds but I’m not afraid of big dogs!). My friend who is a professional pet sitter defers to me when they need someone to watch their fur babies (one of which is a reactive cattle breed). I’ve assisted with elderly dogs and helped to raise puppies and kittens from birth. Currently caring for a mother and kitten pair as a rescue effort, and co-parenting 2 lively pups! I am a recent UF graduate with a very flexible/open schedule. Pet visits and walks are a very welcome interruption to the typical daily hustle and bustle. As a caretaker I always try my best to learn the personality of your furry friend. I love getting to know animals and forming positive relationships for the best experience while their owner(s)/people are away. I try my best to keep things neat and tidy and at the very least the same way I found them! I’m more than happy to talk regarding any special instructions or circumstances for your pet or home.
“Hailee was amazing! This was our first rover experience. Our dogs are quirky but she was incredible with them and they love her. Very responsive and responsible. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and cats (small and large, often multiple at once), and animals tend to connect with me easily. For over 10 years I rescued and fostered cats and kittens, and along the way I also cared for a boa, several birds, a hedgehog, and mice. I’m comfortable and genuinely happy caring for all kinds of animals with patience, love, and respect. At home, I have two cats of my own, Juno (4) and Vesta (3). Vesta needs daily eye drops, so I’m well-practiced in medication administration and comfortable with pets who need a little extra care. I offer drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — consistent routines, lots of affection, and close attention to their needs. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. I’m available full-time, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. With years of experience caring for cats, dogs, and other animals, pet care fits easily into my flexible daily routine. At home I have two cats, Juno and Vesta, both comfortable around visiting pets. I’m experienced with medication administration (Vesta gets daily eye drops), dog walking and will keep a calm, clean, attentive environment for every animal in my care.
“Ariana was AMAZING with our pup Luna. We have used her services twice and plan to continue as long as she is available. She even let Luna get some afternoon sunbathing in during her visit. Luna loves her, and she made us feel at ease while we are at work.”
About: Growing up, my family has always had pets, everything from dogs and cats to geckos and tortoises. I have always loved animals, and providing attentive and reliable care for them. I am also a certified Therapy Dog Handler and volunteer to provide those services around town, as well as volunteer with the local Humane Society. With over 25 years of experience in pet sitting, dog boarding, and pet rescue, you can feel confident that your pet’s needs are in good hands. My schedule is flexible as I mostly work from home, so I can cater to your pet’s needs for drop in visits and dog walking. I am comfortable with whatever animal care is needed, including feeding, walking, litter, medications, and providing lots of play, cuddles, and pets! Please let me know what you need during drop in visits and I will be sure to accommodate with attention to detail.
“She was good, flexible & adjust to the schedule I needed. I appreciate her quick responses & attention to detail. She took well care of my senior dog. Will rebook when I need a dog walker. Thank you again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, including Great Danes, Huskies, German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and Blue Heelers. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Over the years, friends and coworkers have trusted me to help care for their pups, whether that means walking, bathing, providing a safe and fun place to spend the day, or simply giving them the attention and exercise they need. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I also have experience with essential training and care routines, including potty training, basic obedience, and crate training. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure each pup feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Whether your dog needs a reliable walker, a playful companion, or a calm and structured environment, I’m here to help! I work from home, which gives me a great deal of flexibility and reliability when it comes to caring for your fur babies. My availability is generally very open, and I’m always happy to stay in full communication—providing updates, answering questions, or checking in whenever you need. I do have two kids who are active in sports, so there may occasionally be a soccer game or dance event on the weekend or practice during the week. That said, I plan my schedule carefully to ensure the pets in my care always receive the attention and consistency they deserve. If you happen to see limited availability on certain dates, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly. I’m often able to adjust my schedule or make accommodations to help meet your needs! Your pup will feel right at home here! We have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, as well as kennels/crates available if needed to match your dog’s routine and comfort level. We also have three playful and friendly dogs who are great with both kids and other pups. They love making new friends, whether that means running around the yard, playing together, or relaxing inside. (And yes—zoomies around the house do happen from time to time!) Of course, any interaction with our dogs is always based on your comfort level and your pet’s needs. Our home is a loving, relaxed environment where dogs are treated like family. They’re welcome to snuggle on the couch, get plenty of exercise, and enjoy a consistent routine. Feedings are typically twice a day, with the occasional well-earned treat. While your pet is in my care, I’ll stay in close communication with you—sharing updates, photos, and reassurance so you always know your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Great walk as always! She was conscientious of the stormy weather today and was able to change the time of the walk so our Sadie still got a walk and play time in. Always happy to have Danica take care of our Sadie :)”
“Monica was caring and very responsible while taking care of Max. He’s a little older and requires a little TLC and she was so loving toward him. I will use her again and highly recommend her for any pet”
About: I’m currently studying veterinary medicine. Who can love animals more than a vet! I worked at a dog boarding center for over two years having experience in handling dogs of all sizes. I’m a dog owner myself and also have a pet bunny. I love ALL animals and whether it’s energetic walks or playful companionship, I’m here to make your pets day brighter while giving you peace of mind! Im currently a full time student in college, I do have classes currently every day of the week but the times vary. I’d love to coordinate times between my schedule to help you and your pet!

About: I’ve had a dog for as long as I can remember and family and friends have always relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while away. I’ve taken care of anywhere from small dogs for large dogs and even fish. I am currently a 4th year college student so I will have plenty of time on the weekdays and weekends. My schedule is very flexible all days of the week. I live at a safe apartment complex and I have no pets of my own so your pet will be safe and sound. I have a couple dog toys that I am more than happy to share.
About: Throughout the past few years, I've sat for several of my neighbors and friend’s dogs, from yorkies to pit bulls. This includes both walks and visits to provide food, water, and fun. Caring for my own dog, Charlotte, in recent years has given me experience in caring for senior dogs. This includes accommodating for hearing loss, blindness, low energy, and stomach problems. I am a student at UF looking for a fun way to spend my free time. My current schedule somewhat flexible other than my classes.

This works around my classes schedule, volunteering, and other obligations. Safety is my number one priority when caring for your best friend(s). When walking dogs in Florida, I have found it extremely important to monitor the weather and your pets breathing. I will always ensure they have access to enough water and food at meal time. And if they’re allowed, I love giving them the occasional treat.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I’ve been dog sitting for a few years for friends and decided to expand. I’ve always loved being around them no matter the breed, or size. They fill me with so much joy. With my new puppy she was a rescue, she wouldn’t come up to anyone but me and I ended up being the one to make her comfortable. I only work part time, so i’ll have plenty of time to hang around and take care of dogs! They will always have my undivided attention. I constantly take them outside to play, depending how energetic they are. I make sure they always have water, and I show them all the attention they need.

My Lexi was in good hands with Evelyn. I was in Europe at the time that I had to arrange for extra help. I loved the photos she sent me of their walks together. I could tell that Lexi was happier when they got together, she always had a smile on her face. I would highly recommend her.
Sabrina has been an exceptional dog walker. She’s always on time and very communicative, keeping me updated so I feel completely at ease. It’s clear she genuinely cares about my dog—she’s attentive, patient, and truly engaged during their time together. I also really appreciate her flexibility and willingness to accommodate changes when needed. I highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!
She was amazing with my dogs! She made sure they fully did all their business before bringing them back inside, which I really appreciated. She also went above and beyond by cleaning up after them without hesitation, which gave me so much peace of mind. On top of that, she sent a great amount of pictures during their walks, so I always knew they were happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend 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 West Hills. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
