About: I have loved and cared for animals my entire life, starting from a very young age. Today I share my home with 2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 pet rat. I completely understand the worry that comes with leaving your pet in someone else's hands, which is why I treat every animal as if they were my own. Responsible, patient, and gentle by nature, I have a deep love for all animals Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available for drop-in visits and walks Monday through Friday between 9am and 3pm, and I also offer evening availability throughout the week. I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so that every pet I care for gets the time and attention they deserve. During every drop-in visit I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I will take dogs out for a walk, spend quality playtime with both your dogs and/or cats, refresh their food and water, and clean up any messes they may have made while you were away. I treat every home I enter with the utmost respect, leaving things just as I found them
“Nicole is wonderful! She is knowledgeable, trustworthy and super sweet! She is helping me integrate our new dog by going on parallel walks. I plan to go out of town in a few months, and will definitely ask her to dog sit!”

About: My name is Secret. I am 31 and was a vet assistant for 5 years before medical issues forced me to stop working in vet offices. I've had animals my whole life, with and without medical issues so I'm skilled at giving medicine and injections. I currently have 2 german shepherd mixes that love making new friends. One is very energetic and pmayful and does best with dogs who love to play. In my free time I love to walk the dogs on pur 10 acre property or down to the creek we have, read, write, go to the ocean, and camp. And of course anything involving animals! Please feel free to message me if you need assistance! I work with any budget, so don't let the numbers intimidate you. All animals deserve the right care while you are away. I pet sit full time, so I am available full time for your pets! I can work with any household, and stay as much as possible with your pets! We have a fenced yard, and dogs to keep your fur baby company! I have full time care at our house for our dogs, so I am available full time for your babies whether I'm at your house or mine!
About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember! My family has had many pets through the years, family dogs that we’ve cared for into old age, and dogs we have helped rehome! I have experience with many different breeds, including jack russell terriers, pitbulls, border collies, and many more. I love all animals and being around a new pet is so exciting for me. I promise to give your pet special attention and make sure they are happy and comfortable. I am currently in a dental assisting program, so I will be unavailable mondays and tuesdays. Any other day I will have full availability for your pet! I will make sure your pet gets lots of potty breaks if needed, or make sure their enclosure/litter box is fresh and clean! I’m very punctual when it comes to feeding and kind of OCD about having clean water available. I always want your pet to feel comfortable and safe.
About: I've always loved having pets in my life! Along with caring for my three cats, I've volunteered at an animal shelter and previously fostered cats, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. Since our pets can't tell us what they need in words, I pay close attention to their body language, behavior, and little ways of communicating. Whether it's recognizing when a dog needs exercise, noticing when a cat is feeling overwhelmed, or understanding when an animal wants companionship or a little space, I believe in letting their individual needs guide how I care for them. I'm familiar with everyday care, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, grooming, litter box cleaning, and keeping their spaces comfortable. I do my best to maintain familiar routines and make their time away from family as stress-free as possible. I'm also happy to share photos and updates so you can see how your furry companions are doing! Working remotely allows me to spend much of my day at home with my pets. My cats are usually curled up nearby while I work, often taking turns cuddling in my lap as I type. In fact, my little Mitra is sitting on my lap right now as I'm filling this out. Having a flexible work-from-home routine makes it easier to incorporate feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and plenty of company throughout the day. I enjoy having animals around while I work, as they keep me just as much company as I do them. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, and there's always room for a few more furry friends. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires a great deal of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My priority is to provide a safe, comfortable environment for your pets while respecting your home, privacy, and personal belongings. I will always want to be sure if there are any household instructions first, including pet care routines, security measures, and any areas designated as private. I limit my activities to the spaces necessary for caring for your pets, keep shared areas clean and organized, and ensure your home is properly secured whenever I leave. I believe clear communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos, promptly address any concerns, and contact you if anything unexpected arises. My goal is for you to return to your home as you have left it, and happy, comfortable pets, with the peace of mind that both have been treated with care and respect.

Caring for your family member fits into my routine because at the moment I am a dog Mom of one dachshund with a good partner that loves her as much as I do!

As of November 2026, there are 1,673 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Applegate. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Applegate. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Applegate 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.

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. 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.

- 91% of walkers 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 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
