“Caroline took my last minute request and was very communicative. I truly appreciate her disponibility but above all the great job she did with both of my babies. Thank you Caroline!”
“Kayla came through for me at the last minute. Tax season is summing up and breeder could not delay delivery and good thing I got him when I did because the rest were gone in a week so got him earlier than I wanted and needed help, so I reached out late at night on Rover.com and Kayla responded. I have used Rover in the past so I was familiar with them but I am so grateful for Kayla and Kou Kaz loved her on first meeting her. Kayla has a very sweet spirit. Perfect spirit for a 10 week old pup with a lot of energy.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Stormy and Baker receive. Michael is reliable, caring, and treats them like family. It gives us peace of mind knowing they are in such good hands. Stormy and Baker always come home happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Jaya was Amazing, professional, and her and Boss connected so well I will most definitely hire Jaya again! Please keep her around we need more amazing caring people like her.”
“Mariah was great! We have a pit bull that needs special care and attention, she’s was able to handle all of the request properly. Gave our dog all of the love and attention she needed while we were gone on vacation. It was a stress free experience. We will definitely use her again.”
“We had a great drop-in experience with Kayla! She is extremely responsive, we appreciated the timely and thorough communication. She easily managed our 3 dogs, big, small and a foster pup. She was patient with our shy little lady and seemed to gain their trust quickly. We will be booking again!”
“Our first experience using Rover with Liz as our pet sitter was the best experience! Liz has great communication and showed a lot of love and care for our animals. She also took some pretty great photos that made us smile during the drop in visits. Thanks for making this a great first experience, Liz! We appreciate you!”
“Lena was great. She made my pup comfortable, coaxing her to go out and play and take care of business when she was being a bit shy and spooked with the storms in the area. Lena was flexible and responsive and sent pictures from her visit. Thanks again for the great job.”
“Orly did such an amazing job watching over our cats during the Thanksgiving holiday! We felt very comfortable with her stopping in and looking over them. Very accommodating and sweet. Will definitely be a repeat customer for our next getaway!”
About: I have always had dogs all through childhood and adulthood. We currently have a mini long haired dachshund and a pitbull who are the sweetest pair. In addition to being a dog mama I am a mama to a beautiful 1 year old baby girl. I’m just looking to earn some money after leaving my job to stay home and would love to care for and walk your fur babies
About: After 7+ years of pet sitting, I know that leaving your furry family member isn't easy. I began sitting after losing my own beloved dog a few years ago—and while my heart still misses him, caring for other pets has been incredibly healing. I treat every dog like they are my own, offering the same snuggles, playtime, and patience I gave him. Your pup won't just be 'watched'; they will be loved on while you're away. Home full-time while I prep for the LSAT, so your dog gets nonstop company 7 days a week. I live at home with my Mom and Dad whom are in their 60s. I weave walks and playtime into my study breaks—so while I'm hitting the books, your pup is getting all the belly rubs and fetch sessions they want. 7+ years of pet sitting experience, and I genuinely miss having a fluffy companion around since losing my own dog. Let me spoil yours while you're away! While I'm home full-time studying for the LSAT (available Sunday–Saturday), your dog will have the run of the place—literally. I have a large, fully fenced backyard for unlimited fetch, zoomies, and sunbathing, plus ample indoor space for cozy naps and supervised play when we come inside. With 7+ years of pet sitting experience and a heart still missing my own dog who passed a few years ago, I know how important it is to find a safe, roomy, and loving environment. Your pup will get daily walks, constant company, and all the space they need to feel right at home.
About: Growing up, I’ve helped take care of many different kinds of animals, from dogs to cats to reptiles! I have fostered a dog and I currently am the proud owner of a leopard gecko. My schedule is very flexible. I'm currently based in Apopka, but I do travel often to the DC and Gainesville, FL areas to visit friends and loved ones. If at your home, I’ll gladly respect whichever rules you have for where your pets or I should and shouldn’t go. My home is well populated with pets, so I don't offer boarding services.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve owned and cared for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, reptiles, bunnies and even frogs! No matter the species, I’ve always loved getting to know their personalities and making sure they feel safe and loved. I started pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors as a teenager and continued caring for pets throughout adulthood. I’ve always genuinely enjoyed it, and I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets while you’re away. I currently have a 16-year-old cat who prefers to be the only animal in the house, so he’s happily enjoying his quiet retirement. 😸 Our pets bring so much happiness into our lives, and I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a walk, some playtime, companionship, or simply someone to make sure they’re safe and cared for, I’d love the opportunity to help. Your pets deserve to feel just as loved and comfortable while you’re away as they do when you’re home. 🐶🐱❤️ I work part-time and I’m home half of the week with my young daughter. We have lots of free time and more than enough energy to help with your pets! I am generally available from 11 AM till around 6 PM at night. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment and make sure each pet’s individual needs, routines, and boundaries are respected. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings to help keep pets safe, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you provide.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was little, friends and family rely on me to pet sit for their babies all the time! I have a dog and cat at home so I know how to handle both cuties! I’d love to get to know more animals and help out with your animal needs :)) I only have one class that's in the mornings (8-10AM) and I'm free for the whole day after that on Mondays and Wednesday! Thursdays I work during 5-11pm so I can do morning walks, Saturdays I work morning so I’ll be able to do evening walks! Tuesdays and Sundays are free all day! I can accommodate to any environment, if your dog would like to go out into the backyard that will happen, if they want to sit around and be lazy, that can also happen! In your home I will only be where your dog and will only touch things that are needed for your pet.
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs from every walk of life, from puppy to senior. I am very well experienced with senior dogs and disabled dogs and can administer things such as medication, injections (such as insulin) and special care (frequent potty breaks, exact feeding times, and so on.) I have a lot of experience with dogs as small as 7lbs and as big as 100lbs (or more.) Whatever is requested of me, I will do, including exercise, playtime, and crate time if needed. No matter shape, size, or age, I promise I will do my best! I'm currently in college and not yet working full-time, so I can make any day work except for Mondays and Tuesdays. I'm available weekends, late, and early, as long as I'm given appropriate notice on the latter two. I will do whatever is requested of me to make your pet as happy as possible within your home. As stated previously, I can give medications and follow strict routines, as well as allowing your dog plenty of time and opportunites to go out alongside regular walks.

We couldn’t be happier with the care Stormy and Baker receive. Michael is reliable, caring, and treats them like family. It gives us peace of mind knowing they are in such good hands. Stormy and Baker always come home happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!
Haley took great care of our dog stopping in on two occasions while we were away for the day. Our dog is older and bit grumpy and she had the magic touch to get him to go outside after just one meet and great a few days beforhand. We will definitely use her again!
This was the first time we used Rover for a drop in visit for our cats and I'm so glad we chose Stephanie. She assured me everything was fine with our kitties and did everything we asked. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Zellwood is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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 5,166 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Zellwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Zellwood. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters 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 sitter.
