About: I have one dog that is turning 5 and have had her for over 4 years. I have taken care of other dogs in the family as well. I also have stayed over nights for extended family pets! I'm currently working part-time and in school Monday and Wednesday mornings. So I still have lots of time to spend with your pets! The safety and comfortability of your pet is my number one priority. So I will do my best to give them time to get used to me and prevent anxiety. I take my dog on several walks during the day when it isn't too hot (don't wanna burn any pet paws!) And I play with her all throughout the day. We practice tricks I've taught her and we snuggle up on the couch!
“Kayla is just the sweetest! My family and I moved here from Baton Rouge, LA only three days before needing an unexpected sitter for our sweet, elder beagle Otis. Kayla came to our home for our in-person meeting and we (& Otis) felt comfortable immediately. She cared for Otis 3 days in a row, and left us detailed notes and the cutest photos/videos every time. We will definitely schedule her again!”
About: Other than having two pups of my own, I’ve cared for friends and family pets with joy. I love giving attention to pets by taking the on walks, throwing the ball, or even just petting them on the couch. Currently on summer break from college, so I have plenty of availability for your pets. Mornings to evenings 10am-8pm is my ideal availability 7 days of the week. Clients will find that I am very respectful in their homes as I will leave them better than I found it, with happy and cared for pets.
“Naomi has been so good for my puppy’s daily drop in visits! She’s very great with communication and punctuality. She’s also been very patient with my puppy’s growing pains. Thanks Naomi!”
“Sure! Here’s a slightly shorter version that works well for Rover: We had a great experience with Linda. Our dogs received lots of attention and loving care, and the frequent photo updates gave us total peace of mind. When we returned, their behavior made it clear they were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“Thank for the great care of puppers. It was interesting being on this side. I care for animals as well and it felt good knowing someone is just as passionate and caring. Highly recommend .”
“Carrie is amazing. She took care of our old English sheepdog with so much love and attention. Her communication was constant and she followed our instructions for caring for our dog perfectly. Definitely recommend!”

I performed health checks as well as washes to pups! Provided fresh water and plenty of love! Just moved back to Florida as well! I currently have open availability. Also, if you contact me a few weeks beforehand for sitting requiring me to stay in the home, I can gladly take off to come and watch your precious bean! Currently I can not work from home. Im interested in Long-term or ongoing care and any thing else! I have 1 furry friend currently, one passed away of old age at 17 years and required a lot of attention. I cared for his wounds, giving medication, etc. I have one other who will be 16. As an expierenced dog owner, I give my dogs their medications as needed, follow special dieting and so forth. I pay PLENTY attention to them as well. I have expierence of taking care of dogs of ANY age being Ive had these two since pups. I used to dog sit up North in New Jersey area and I absolutely loved it! I enjoy spending quality time with dogs whether it be playing outside, going for a walk, or just relaxing together. I do believe in getting your dog outside activity to keep them healthy and fit as well. I also accept any reasonable pay, not just what's on my profile. I have flexible schedule and Id be more than happy to try and work around this to provide a service both you and youre beloved pet will enjoy! I now have a corgi, who is an angel. An angel who requires LOTS of exercise. I let him run freely and take him on LONG walks to help tire him out as well as engaging in fun activities such as fetch!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old. My family and friends have always relied on me to feed or take care of their pets when they are away traveling. I have previous experience working as a volunteer tech vet. I have a full time job M-F 7am-4pm. In the afternoons I am available to walk dogs. Weekends are more flexible. We can go over a schedule that would best accommodate your pet individually. I live in a small apartment, it has accesible green areas and a dog park near by. No dogs or cats living with me at the moment. I’m very responsible and will take any measure necessary to make the owner feel safe with their decision.
About: I've taken care of multiple neighbors pets as well as friend's and family's pets for years. Love taking them out for walks and making them wag their tails! I’m currently a graduate student in PA school and am about to start my clinical rotations! Because my schedule varies from rotation to rotation, my availability may change throughout the year. Some rotations allow me to be home much more frequently than others. Before accepting any house-sitting request, I’ll always discuss my schedule with you to ensure it matches your pet’s potty break, exercise, and companionship needs. I only accept bookings when I know I can provide the level of care your pet deserves. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and lots of love. I carefully follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules. Our old baby was blind and diabetic so I know how important a consistent schedule can be. I love providing regular updates with photos as well so you know how loved your fur baby is :)
“Janine did a fantastic job caring for my two cats! She obviously loves animals and is very patient with them. One of my babies is diabetic and needs insulin injections. I felt very comfortable leaving her in Janine's capable, experienced hands! Janine was able to come in twice a day to ensure that both of my kitties were well fed and cared for. She sent messages and photo updates, which was so reassuring. Both Pookie and Chica told me they want Janine to come back again. 😉”
About: I grew up with dogs in my household and currently have a 10 year-old and a 1 year-old Shih Tzu. I’m a part-time nurse and my husband works from home. We have a lot of flexibility in our schedule for play time and potty breaks. We also have a large, fenced in yard which is great for play time! I’m currently working part-time and my husband works from home. We are pretty flexible with our schedules to meet the individualized needs of your pets. We live in a new community next to a walking trail. The area is perfect for leisurely walks, playing fetch or simply relaxing in the sun! We also have a large, fenced in backyard. I have the flexibility to give your dog(s) the attention they need! I’m a nurse but work remote from home most days. My husband also has the flexibility to work from home. Your pet will never go unattended! We own a spacious house with a large couch for lounging. We also have a large back yard so I can offer the perfect balance of rest and play!
About: I have 4 dogs myself that I absolutely love and adore. I’ve had 10 years of experience taking care of dogs whether they’re big or small! I’m available all day everyday of the week except for Sundays and I’m very flexible. Walking and taking care of dogs brings me so much joy ! I am extremely loving and active with dogs. I love to play with them, run around with them, and give them all the attention and care they need.
About: I have grown up and been around dogs my entire life. Before my kids were born my dogs were my kids and I treat them as family members. My dogs would sleep in my bed and I would take them everywhere I possibly could because they were my best friend. I feel that all dogs love their owners unconditionally as long as you treat them appropriately. A concept that was brought to my attention a long time ago regarding dogs is that they might not be the most exciting part of our day, but we are the most exciting part of theirs and they look forward to seeing us every day. I wake up every day appreciating that fact and my dogs have always return the favor I work close to home and I’m off on weekends. I have a lot of flexibility from my regular job to facilitate any pet need. I’ve always treated any of my pets like my children. They get a lot of attention, exercise, and play time. Pets that I have watched over for friends and family get sad when they leave my house because they have had such a good time.
“Amber did a great job with our cat Joel! She made sure he was fed and had plenty of water and hung out with him while we were on vacation. She even came out to check on him as a possible hurricane was bearing down on us.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Zellwood
Caroline was incredibly helpful! She went above and beyond, even bringing multiple delivered packages from our doorstep inside the house while we were out of town. She was very sweet with our cats, communicated clearly, and kept me updated in real time with photos from each visit. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again whenever we’re away.
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!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Zellwood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
