“Emily takes wonderful care of our senior dog! She is always on time, gives Emilou lots of attention (even belly rubs), and is so easy to connect with. I can’t imagine leaving Emilou with anyone else!”
“Wow, Bubbles and I lucked out! Isabelle is fantastic for my high energy dog!! Bubbles has a bit of stranger danger and i asked for a slow intro and Isabelle was happy to oblige . So incredibly knowledgeable about different behavior issues and dog breeds, and listened to every concern when it came to turning over the leash. We are about a week in and i absolutely feel like i can go back to work and not worry. Im so happy i found them.”
“All I can say is AMAZING. Nicole went above and beyond for me and my dogs. She sent photos of them while I was away. She made sure they had food and water, she even recommended medicine for my dog Bailey who has chicken allergies. Nicole worked my lock box flawlessly. She was so helpful and warm. I wish I could give her more stars. I would definitely book with her again and again. Nicole is the best.”

“Katie is a natural with animals! My skittish Great Dane is paw-sitively enamored with her new best friend who takes her for fun walks, and Katie goes above and beyond by making sure the cat gets some love too. Whether your pet is 10 or 110lbs she handles them with the ease and experience of a pro!”
“I was a first time Rover user, due to boarding at a local pet daycare not working out. I have two in tact opposite gender fur babies, who have never been cared for by anyone but their in home family….us. My family and I went on a 5 day vacation and needed to have them walked 3x per day. Due to the turnaround time, the walker needed to be booked within 48 hours. Being a novice, I thought I would need to cancel my family’s vacation. Cheyenne accepted my booking and was such a gem! Cheyenne went above and beyond during the 5 days she was booked to walk my two fur babies. She was so kind to keep with their walk times to the minute. She was never late and always on time. My two fur babies took to her immediately, which to me was the best feeling as a fur parent. She even taught me how to use the Rover App! She sent pictures as a part of their walk report card. I know Cheyenne will now be our go to, anytime we are needing a qualified and loving sitter! Thank you so much Cheyenne again for taking our booking. 🥰”

“Caroline was timely and communicated with me about the walk and how my pupper was doing. She made sure my dog’s water bowl was replenished after their walk. Would recommend Caroline!”
About: I've been taking care of animals a vast majority of my life. From fish and birds to dogs and cats. I have experience caring for animals in all stages of life. I also have prior experience working with all types of dogs, as I used to work at a professional daycare and boarding business as a room attendant. There I was a keyholder, prepped dog food and meds, as well as picked up after any messes without any difficulty. I live with two dogs myself, and watch them for my roommate when he goes out of town. I do have cats that don't mind dogs too much. I have a fenced in back yard and a dog door that goes out to the back as well. I love working with my own cats, as well as the fur babies of others to better understand dog, cat, and general animal behaviors. I love animals, so getting to work with them fuels said love. I treat all animals as if they’re mine. I believe in positive reinforcement training, as well as redirecting misbehavior to something more entertaining for both me and the pet.
About: I've had cats my entire life and dogs for the last 15 years. Currently I have 6 cats and 2 dogs. I have a way of getting chosen by animals lol. We have many strays in our neighborhood and the cat distribution system seems to know I won't let them die lol. I have bottle fed many, including 4 of the six I currently own. I had a third dog but he sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in March after 14 loving years. My dogs need medication daily and I have no problem giving it to them. These experiences will only help me to take care of your fur family to the best of my ability! I am an entrepreneur currently as I was laid off from my 9-5 in December after 12 years. My schedule is open and generally free. Occasionally I am unavailable from Sat -Tues but that's something I know well in advance. I have my own transportation and don't mind animals in my car. I will care for any pet as if it's my own. Spoiled and loved. Care will be inevitably determined by the pet parent and the animals specific needs.
“Julia was fantastic! She communicated well throughout the entire process and took great care of my dog. Everything went smoothly, and I felt confident my pup was in good hands. Overall, she did a great job — I would absolutely recommend her and will be booking again!”
About: I’m at a stay-at-home mom with both of my kids out of the house for college/post-grad, so ever since a year ago, I’ve been taking care of my sweet 3 year old cavachon, Miko. I’ve been taking care of him like he’s my own baby, making sure he’s fed fresh food, taking him outside on walks regularly, and maintaining his great hygiene. Rest assured I can take your puppy on walks with the same level of attentiveness and love! Your puppy will be in great company with myself & Miko, who’s always very friendly with fellow puppies. Like I previously mentioned, I'm a stay-at- home mom with the kids out of the house, so taking care of my puppy is currently my full time job! I have plenty of time to play with your puppy & take them on walks whether in our home's spacious yard or the park (my go-to park currently in Alexander Park!). I'm available for walks once a day every week. I have a fenced spacious yard and my own friendly and bubbly puppy to keep your puppy company, looking forward meeting you and your little one.
About: I truly love animals and take responsibility very seriously. Finding someone to care for your pet is a big decision. Animals need lots of love and attention and I have more than enough to give! Just recently had to put our family pet of 16 years to sleep and it would be a welcome distraction to care for your babies. I love being outdoors and going for walks so I can guarantee your puppy would be worn out by the time they go home. Animals have so much love to give and deserve so much on return. I would gladly give love and attention to your baby so they would not feel sad or alone while you are away. I look forward to helping with all of your personal needs.

It's my first time using Rover and Ashley was great! She updated me throughout the entire walk with my dog, Latte. She truly cares about animals and I would definitely book with Ashley again if Latte needs her walk. Thank you Ashley for taking care of Latte while I was away ☺️
We couldn’t be happier with Maria! We have an 11-week-old puppy — so basically a tiny, chaotic bundle of energy and uncertainty — and Maria was an absolute dream. She took her time, never rushed, and got right into the pen to play with him like she’d known him forever. She took the time to really understand what we needed, asked the right questions, and then executed everything perfectly. You could tell she genuinely loves dogs and isn’t just going through the motions. Our little guy was happy, tired, and clearly well-loved by the end of it. If you have a young pup and want someone patient, caring, and totally trustworthy — book Maria. We already have. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Chelsea is amazing! We adopted our sweet Nala only 3 weeks ago, We were very nervous having someone we don't know come in and take care of our pets but we did a meet and greet with her and she made our worries go away. She answers all of my questions and responds super quick to anything I need. Chelsea makes sure our sweet Nala is taken care of even if it's for a short walk. Our baby is defiantly an energetic dog and Chelsea helps burn out all the bottled up energy by playing and going on fun nature walks and more! She sends lots of updates and photos which I love because we aren't home throughout the day so its very nice to know our baby is taken care of! We also have a Chihuahua and a cat that dosent need care when Chelsea comes but she goes out of her way to say hello to them and gives them attention and love. I highly recommend Chelsea as she is very kind and gentle with our sweet girl!! Our animals love to see her come in!

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 Allendale. 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 Allendale.

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.
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 Allendale. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
