About: I've spent my entire life having animals and loved them for my entire life. I've had cats my entire life, and often this is not lent itself well to me also owning a dog. We currently own three cats one 12 year old lady, and two 2 year old brothers. When I was young I would walk the neighbor's dog just so I could get some dog time in. In college and after college I had several roommates who had dogs I lived with, who I would also help care for either just for fun or while they were gone. I have also taken care of friends dogs while they are out of town on vacation. I have experience with cats from 6 weeks old all the way up to end of life. I have experience in giving cats medication, special diets, special instructions and any other quirks your cat may have. I'm experienced in walking dogs, playing with dogs, feeding dogs (including special diets) and while I love larger dogs, I currently am unable to care for them due to a medical condition and it only able to care for a small dogs. I'm currently taking a break from my career and have very flexible availability, both during the week and on the weekends. I do request 24 hours notice. I will take care of your pets with the instructions you leave me with. I will rely on you as the pet parent to make all major decisions and follow your rules as best as possible. I am great with communication and will regularly communicate with you to show you how your pets are doing while you're out of town and ask any questions that arise while you're gone.
“Sadie is very happy with her walks with Janet. She let's her sniff the tall grass for smells. Fun!! We are very appreciative of Janet. Sadie gets her walks when we aren't able to and is very happy and tired.”
About: I have years of experience caring for my own pets and pet-sitting for others. My experience includes all age ages and sizes of dogs and cats, including rescue animals, French bulldogs, pitbulls and Persian cats. I also have some experience with giving medication to pets and caring for small animals such as hedgehogs and rabbits. I love all kinds of animals and take pride in understanding and respecting a pet's unique needs and boundaries, such as petting and feeding needs. I look forward to giving your pet the same love and respect I give my own! Over this summer I am completely flexible as I will be attending university at the start of fall. I will have a very flexible schedule for both booking appointments and playing/walking with your animals. I like to keep a strict feeding schedule-which can fit to your pets needs if they already have one-and a minimum walk time of 30 minutes daily. Pets are allowed everywhere in both yard and home. If needed or wanted I am willing and happy to send daily photos and/or videos of your pet to you for peace of mind!
“Natalie is the best experience I’ve had on this app. She’s walked my dog twice and she already doesn’t pull anymore, and lays down when dogs and people approach. Absolutely recommend using her services!”
“Josh and my dog Jaxon got along great from the start. This was my first time having someone other than family take care of him so I was nervous but his daily Rover cards with the description of the day and pictures are awesome and makes my day away from my dog better. Jaxon gets so excited when he comes over now because he loves going on walks with him and the treats he gives him!”
“Briana came out and walked my dog for me for a week while I had longer working hours. Duke loved her, she was prompt and had great communication! I so appreciated her coming out of her way to get him out and will absolutely be booking again!”
“Megan and Kevin have done an amazing job with my girl! They are always reliable and are nice enough to to fit late evening dog walks in because I work long night shifts. They have also taken in her for overnight care and treat her like their own!! I travel for work and have worked with a lot of Rovers, Megan and Kevin are the best ones I’ve had!”
“Monica continues to be such a wonderful human! She provides thoughtful, fun updates during her walks and visits with me dog. My dog adores her as well! Monica is very responsive and I appreciate that she takes the time to get to know your pets and how to best care for them when you can’t be there.”
“Samantha was great with Zero! Gave him plenty of excercise and sent over great pics!!! She was mindful that it is hot out and gave him some fresh water so he could cool down. Would definitely have Samantha come back and walk Zero again! Thank you!”
About: For as long as I can remember our family has owned and cared for varying pets as my children have grown. We've had several dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, hamsters and birds. As time has gone by and the children have grown and left and pets have passed away I miss the company and comfort only a pet can provide. Now that I'm retired and without pets of my own I have the time to care for the pets of others when their owners need to be away. Since I also travel, it provides the best "pet fix" without being tied down with owning one of my own again. I think you'll find me loving, reliable and conscientious. I'll do my best to care for your pet as though they were my own.
“Kristina is always so wonderful to my dog Cooper - she is very responsive and communicative and I can tell that she genuinely cares for the dogs she watches. She is highly recommended!”
About: Although I currently don't have a dog, I have had the pleasure of sharing in the lives of several dogs over the years. I think both dogs and cats have such a special way of contributing to our lives and I would love the opportunity to share in your dogs lives when you are unable to be there whether it be to get them some exercise or just give them some time and attention. I am active and would have no trouble taking your dog for walks or to the park if you wanted. I also don't mind the cold weather so you don't need to worry about winter coming up. I hope to hear from you soon and for you to be a satisfied customer! My husband and I work together doing home improvement and 'handyman' type odd jobs, which makes my schedule very flexible. I can adjust my errands and work appointments around the needs of your pet. I am very careful when letting dogs outside that they are on a leash or there is a fenced yard if I am at your home. I would never want for a pet to get out that I could not get them back.
About: Hello!! My background with dogs began at a very young age! My family has always had dogs, started with Labrador Retriever’s and now we have a 5-year old rescue mutt named Meeka! I have experience with dogs as small as Teddy Bears to as big as Bernese Mountain Dogs. I truly love to be around all dogs and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I do work a full time job but have the flexibility after work to tend and care for your animals and their needs. My weekends are typically free and I would love to fill my time with dogs or cats if I have the chance! I will definitely keep you updated, however you prefer, while caring for your dog! I will make sure to keep your dog to the schedule you would like and to always give a good belly scratch and endless love!
About: I have grown up with dogs, and have had always had a passion for being around dogs. I worked with them in my last job at a nursing home and seeing the difference they make, makes me so happy Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m currently in school and have afternoons available after my other job. This gives me time to care for pets, provide attention and companionship, and complete my schoolwork between visits. I’m organized and dependable, and I can plan my schedule around each pet’s feeding, playtime, walks, and other care needs. I also have two cats of my own, so daily pet care is already a regular part of my life. I care for pets by following their normal routine and paying attention to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I provide fresh food and water, playtime, exercise, companionship, litter-box cleaning, and plenty of patience. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and send regular updates so they know how their pet is doing. I have experience caring for cats belonging to family and friends, and I have two cats and a two-year-old dog named Kona of my own. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep things clean, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away
“We and our dogs highly recommend Dillon. He walked both out huskies for a week while we were out of town. They can be challenging to walk together but Dillon did great with them. Good communication throughout.”
“I engaged Amanda to walk my mom’s dog, Nin, after she had surgery and could take him herself. Amanda was amazing with Nin and super helpful for my mom. She even brushed him when my mom was unable to (he’s a shepherd so has LOTS of hair and the shedding easily gets out of control). I would definitely recommend Amanda; she is dependable, great with dogs and super thoughtful.”
“Such a great couple! Jessica and Chase worked together to accommodate our schedule. They kept in contact and were punctual. Our dog loves them and I would definitely recommend them, but would like to keep them all for myself!”
About: Throughout my childhood and early adulthood, I have cared for many different animals. I walked my neighbor's dog weekly for eight years. I have completed agility and obedience training courses with my family's dog. I have worked at horse stables and volunteered in animal shelters. I just love animals! I am currently unemployed. I am a student on winter break for six weeks! This makes it so that I have a very flexible schedule and a lot of availability. I am more than happy to spend a long time at my client's house, playing with the pets, cuddling with them, keeping them company - you name it!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Appleton
Great sitter! She took exceptional care of both of our Golden Retrievers and showed such a genuine love for them from the very start. Her communication was truly top-notch — consistent, timely, and reassuring — which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She came two days in a row at the same hours to let our sweet babies out, and her reliability and presence meant everything to us. It was clear she was fully engaged, attentive, and truly cared about their comfort and happiness. You can tell she has a huge heart for Goldens, and that made us feel over the moon knowing how loved our pups were. We felt completely safe and confident leaving our dogs in her care, and we are so grateful for the love and consistency she showed them. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and compassionate sitter!

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 Appleton. 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 Appleton.

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. 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Appleton. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
