“Melina did wonderful with Willow; she warmed up to Melina almost immediately. Melina also provided plenty of updates with pictures so I was never worried about my little girl.”
“Mikaela is such a great dog walker and person. She was quick to help in a pinch and took excellent care of my dog, who requires some extra oversight. I could tell from the photos from the walk, she really connect with my dog…which means the world to me. Would highly recommend!”
“Lauren is the best! Clearly looks out for our dog, adjusting schedules with plenty of communication and care for the weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Thank you Lauren!”
“Kim was so great, very communicative, punctual, reliable, and worked with me to make sure my puppy got everything she needed. Will definitely be working with Kim again!”
“Don was amazing with my pup! He gave a great experience of adventure to her and I really loved that. He worked with her while she was with him and I love that also. I highly recommend Don for the care of your pup! My pup is usually apprehensive with men and I was happy she enjoyed her time and stay with Don. He communicated well with me and I appreciated that. Thank you so much Don :)”
About: Hi! I'm Casey! I've owned dogs for 10 years and have 3 years of pet sitting experience. I raised my current dog from 13 weeks old, and she's the light of my life, so I know how important it is to hire a sitter you trust with your baby. I have experience with reactive and skittish dogs, and I believe that all dogs deserve rich and full lives regardless of their temperament. I also have experience administering medication and caring for dogs with health and mobility challenges. I care for all ages of dogs, from puppies to seniors. My two dogs are fun-loving and very smart, so I know how important it is to provide not only physical activity, but mental stimulation. One of my favorite things to do with my dog is practicing or learning new tricks using positive reinforcement and consistent practice, and I'd be happy to do the same with your pup! I also love taking photos of pets too and will gladly provide photo updates. Fun fact, my first ever job was at a kennel, where I took care of dogs and cats. My mom calls me a "dog professional" :) Please tell me all about your pet and their unique quirks so I can treat them the way they want to be treated <3 I work from home, so I can be flexible to accommodate your needs. I have 3 years of pet sitting experience so I already know how to make it work in my life! I always respect boundaries by reading your pet's behavior cues. Please tell me all about your pet's unique needs so I can make sure they are comfortable! I'll always leave your home exactly as you left it.
“Bethany was incredibly communicative and my pups seemed perfectly happy to be taken care of by her. She was also amazingly accommodating and supportive as I navigated having a dog walker for the first time, especially with one of my dogs who is a bit more anxious around new people.”
“Ryan dealt wonderfully with my very nervous and untrusting rescue puppy. Although the walk did not go as planned, he did an excellent job of communicating the issues with me and handling the situation professionally and calmly. Thank you for all your help!”
“Isabella was absolutely amazing. We booked her to walk our lab for a week straight while we were on vacation and she was on time (early which is always appreciated), very communicative, and was so good with our doggo. We ended up adding an additional dog walk for another dog that was at the house where ours was staying, and Isabella was okay with it and did phenomenal with both dogs in the end. Would highly highly recommend to anyone and we will utilize her in the future!”
“We have only booked twice so far, but we trust Chey (and we have already rebooked with her). She managed to get our dog to walk over a mile (maybe treat-induced); he'll only do that on hikes with us! Also, she is respectful of our home while we're away. Five stars.”
“Charlotte was fantastic! She gave our pup plenty of exercise, love, and attention while we were away for the day. We came back to a very happy dog. I would absolutely book with Charlotte again!”

Such a lovely person! Very kind and gentle personality, Dobbert my doggo warmed right up to him. Vinny was very patient with Dobbert while he barked and eventually adjusted to meeting a new person. Vinny was very kind to walk Dobbert for me on short notice. He is very punctual, respectful and responsible. Extremely grateful and will be booking again!!!
Ryan was so great with our dog!!! He was always punctual, had great communication, and was a great match to her high energy! Whenever changes in our schedule came up he was super responsive and we felt confident trusting him with our sweet pup! Highly highly recommend!!
Silvia is the best! She has been walking Penny often for the past three years; she is reliable, communicative and it’s obvious she really loves dogs! Penny loves her! She maps the walks, sends a detailed report and sends the cutest photos! I highly recommend her!

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 Applewood. 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.

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.

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.
