About: i've cared for pets since i was born. i was always the go to when someone gave away an animal or just needed help caring for one. from cats and dogs to rabbits and even rehabilitating a baby squirrel! pet care doesn’t just “fit” into my routine, it’s a way of life! i love getting active with my own dog everyday in many ways, including walks and swimming trips!

About: Hi! I’m Shun, and I absolutely love caring for animals. I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with three wonderful pets, and I’ve always felt that animals have a special way of communicating if you take the time to understand them. As someone who enjoys gardening, beekeeping, and spending time outdoors, I naturally love caring for animals and creating a calm environment. Weekends are dedicated to giving pets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I currently offer weekend pet care, so your furry family member will have plenty of attention while you’re away. My home is calm, safe, and perfect for relaxing, playing, and getting lots of love. I believe every pet should feel like they’re on their own little vacation while their family is gone. In addition to pet care, I’m happy to help give you peace of mind by bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, alternating lights, and checking on your home if requested. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and treating every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently offer pet care on weekends, allowing me to dedicate quality time to your pet while you’re away. Whether your pup enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before their stay. I’ll follow your feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and house rules to help your pet feel as comfortable as possible. I also believe in open communication and will send regular updates and photos throughout their visit.

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and truly enjoy spending time with animals.

I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get regular walks or playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m attentive and present, and I enjoy building pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I have a fenced in backyard where we can run around and play together.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Alfalfa. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Alfalfa after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 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 .
walkers 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 walker.
