About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care for each dog. I have extensive experience in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits early on. Additionally, I specialize in senior dog care, offering gentle and attentive support for older pets. My approach is all about understanding each dog's unique needs and making sure they feel coming and loved while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I make sure to set aside time every day for feeding, walking, and playing with my furry friends. It's essential to me to prioritize their well-being and happiness, so I always make sure they get the attention and care they need. Whether it's a quick walk in the morning or some playtime in the evening, I love being there for them and making sure they feel loved and cared for. When I'm caring for pets in my own home, I make sure to create a safe and comfy environment. I have designated spaces for them to sleep, play, and eat. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. At a client's home, I stick to the pet's regular routine as much as possible. I follow any specific instructions the owner gives me to make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication, or favorite toys, I make sure to keep everything consistent so the pet feels right at home.

About: I have my own lovely animals in my house and i also used to work on wag! as well. i have three cats, cheese, mouse, and patches, i love them dearly. I've also worked in Orlando, Florida as a kennel technician for over a year. I am stay-at-home right now so i have plenty of time to hang with your pups (or kitties i don't discriminate)! I currently am a student at troy (online) so it gives me plenty of time with a very flexible schedule. I make sure everything in my home and others is clean before leaving and make sure all animals have exactly what they need in order to be healthy and clean.

About: I have a dog of my own currently. He is a full blood German Shorthair Pointer. I owned my first dog 8 years ago and have loved animals since a child. I do have experience In the Veterinary assistant field. I’m in online college for grooming and veterinary tech. Right now I’m unemployed and I have a son who goes to daycare so I’m naturally free during the weekdays. During the weekend I can manage a babysitter My dog is fed morning and evening. Has a lot of yard space to run as he’s a very energetic breed. I do groom him myself such as clipping his nails and bathing and brushing.

About: For over 30 years, I’ve dedicated my life to caring for animals in both professional and personal settings. I’ve worked as a groomer, grooming manager, and salon owner, handling dogs of every size, temperament, and ability. My background also includes behavior handling, training, senior‑pet support, and administering medications, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs or unique routines. I’ve trained dogs since childhood using both the Koehler method and operant conditioning, giving me a calm, confident approach that helps animals feel secure. I’ve also spent years volunteering in feral cat rescue, including trapping, transport, and pre‑surgery prep for TNR programs. That experience taught me how to read subtle feline body language, reduce stress, and create a safe environment for even the most cautious cats. Along the way, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, pigs, horses, skinny guinea pigs, chickens and lizards — and today I share my life with a Xoloitzcuintli who keeps me on my toes. Safety is always my first priority. I’m certified in canine CPR and first aid, and I previously worked as a trained EMT, which gives me a steady, prepared mindset in any situation. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, elderly, or somewhere in between, I provide calm, reliable care that keeps their routine intact and their stress low. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and understood while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day — it is my day. I start every morning with my chickens’ “breakfast meeting” and my Xolo’s very serious job of supervising everything I do. Three nights a week, I stay with a breeder’s pack of seventeen dogs, so juggling routines, personalities, and the occasional diva moment is second nature to me. Because animals are already woven into my everyday life, adding your pets feels like inviting another friend into the mix. Whether I’m popping in for drop‑ins or doing an overnight when your pet needs extra reassurance, they slide right into a routine that’s already built around calm, reliable, happy animal care. Caring for pets in your home is basically my favorite kind of pet‑sleepover — even when I’m not actually sleeping over. Most of the time I pop in for visits that keep your pets’ routine steady, their mood happy, and their world exactly the way they like it. I follow your instructions to the letter, from “this bowl only” feeding quirks to the sacred afternoon zoomies and the one toy they’ve decided is the center of the universe. Seniors, puppies, shy guys, and full‑blown drama queens all get calm, experienced care. And if your pet thrives with someone staying overnight, that’s absolutely an option. Either way, your home stays tidy, your pets stay content, and your phone stays full of adorable updates while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of many animals in my past. I started around 13. I started with three huskys and one toy poddle so I am good with large and small breeds. I am currently working at a Mother's morning out daycare. I would love to help out with anyone who needs dog,cat, or any animal services! I've worked with many animals and have a furry friend as well! I have a fenced backyard in case of boarding services if needed. I love going for walks with my dog and getting there energy out.

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 Ariton. 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 Ariton 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 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 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 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.
