“Lauren has been absolutely amazing. From our meet up, we knew she would perfect for us. Lauren is very professional, courteous, and really down to earth. Ace has really warmed up to her. We can't thank her enough.”
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was a kid, starting on a farm where I helped train and care for service dogs. Whether your pup wants a rugged adventure hike or a quick stroll through the neighborhood, I’m happy to match their energy. I’ve raised my dog, Nikka, since she was 7 weeks old and am fully comfortable handling medications, special feeding, and high-needs care for pets of all types. Pet care fits around the day, not the other way around. Mornings start with a walk and breakfast, mid-day gets a longer outing or backyard time, and evenings are for hanging out. I keep a routine but I'm flexible when a pet needs something different. I treat a client's home like my own. Dogs get their normal routine kept intact, walks, meals, and meds on the same schedule they're used to, plus plenty of company so it doesn't feel like a kennel. I keep things clean, send updates with photos, and follow whatever house rules the owner leaves. Nikka comes along when it's allowed, but only after everyone had a successful meet & greet.
About: Hi, I'm Jackie! I've had animal companions for just about my whole life, and dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. So whatever your pet's personality, chances are I've cared for one just like them. I have hands-on experience raising and training puppies, and I'm comfortable administering medication. I take pet care seriously, and I treat every animal like one of my own. Your loved one will be in good hands with me! I have a very flexible schedule so I'm able to visit your pet when they need it the most. I like to walk dogs first thing in the morning so they are relaxed. For cats, I'll play with them either before or after their food depending on their mood. I love to start out the mornings with a walk for dogs and then feeding. For cats, I’ll usually feed then wait and play unless the cat has a lot of energy beforehand.
About: I’ve taken care of friends’ dogs for years! I love meeting new dogs and creating bonds with them. At home, I have a senior dog who requires some extra care so am able to provide the same for your dog. I’m currently applying for jobs, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets! I’m available anytime of day that is convenient for you ! Aside from the basics of caring for your pet (feeding, water, walks, etc), I will spend some extra time playing and petting as needed to make sure they feel safe and happy!
About: I grew up with a dog when I was really little. Growing up I dog sat and walked for my neighbors many times. Led me to be an all around animal lover, which is why I am an environmental studies major at VCU. Currently as college student at VCU(one class everyday Monday-Thursday), my weekends are usually open all day. I am used to waking up early but also very flexible. I like to take note of small habit and dos and don’ts to look back and be thorough in pet care. I am well versed in what dangerous for pets as I grew up with pets and have lived with both cats and dogs.
“Isabella is our go to walker! She is so good with our pup and she did a great job of improvising when my husband forgot to leave the leash in plain sight and I was not able to be reached.”
“Alexandra is the best.My dog paced the floor excited when she knew she was on the way. Very friendly and reliable and tolerated my pulling dog. She helped me tremendously on short notice. My GSP Sadie enjoyed her walking adventures. I trust Alexandra with any pet needs and will be using her in the future!”
“Stephanie was fantastic! She was right on time, super professional, and took great care of my puppy—making sure he got his walk and was fed lunch right on schedule. I had a great experience with her and wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
“I am travel nurse and it can be hard to find consistent, reliable dog walking and Kayley was exactly that. She was so available and never had any issues. She is communicative and take care of your dog like they they are her own. My dog loved her. I would absolutely recommend Kayley.”
About: I’ve always had an animal in my home and have helped take care of them. I walked neighbors dogs in my starting in middle school. I love to foster animals when I get the chance helping them find there future home that fits them! Pet care falls naturally into my schedule because I am currently on summer break not working another job. I have plenty of time to provide reliable care throughout the day. Every pet deserves to feel safe and comfortable while there owner is away. I will closely look at the information provided of the pet to insure I understand them and there routine.
“It's been such a joy working with Michaela. My dog has been loving his daily walks with her and its been lovely having the peace of mind that he is well taken care of. Her communication is excellent and I enjoy receiving her pictures of his walks. Thank you Michaela!”
About: My love of dogs started in 4th grade when my family adopted the best black Labrador ever! We named him Smoky. I fed him and cared for him. He loved to take walks and fetch sticks. I am organized and can follow a written schedule. My daughter has been doing Rover for a couple of years now. She has taught me the ins and outs of caring for pets in another person’s home. She has encouraged me to do this due to my capabilities and love of pets. I am retired. I have flexibility. My business background taught me the organizational skills to mesh together multiple schedules. And I know how to treat your home with respect. I will follow your written instructions. Feeding, medication, brushing, walking, sleeping. If your pet has had a trauma, I need to know about it. Communication is key. If I am at your home on trash day, I will take out the trash. Let me know what day it is. I will collect your mail. Your home will be treated with respect. Non smoking homes only. Your pet will be loved.
About: I’ve personally have two dogs and one cat, but taken care of many more. Puppies, potty accidents, senior dogs, grouchy cats. I love them all! Looking to gain more professional experience with different animal personalities. I am a former dog foster for the Richmond SPCA and Beagles & Bentleys. My availability is mostly open during the week! For weekends, I might need request decently far an advance as I do Rover as my side job. My home has already been made pet friendly and has the space to accommodate 1-2 more pets (depending on size) as I do have two of my own. I like to get a sense of how the pet feels about his / my home to establish their level of comfortability and trust.
About: Hi! I’m Gabby! I have been pet sitting since my elementary school days, but I have also consistently grown up in a home with both cats and dogs! I have a very flexible schedule making it easy to stay on your pups/kitties routines! I love all animals big and small, and have confidence in being a suitable sitter for you! I am a college student and am off for the summer, but typically take most of my classes on line. Because of this, I am very flexible and have lots of free time during the week! My schedule can easily be worked around your pets schedule/needs! As i have 5 dogs and 4 cats in my home, I do not offer services in my home. However I do 100% offer services i your home and the pets natural environment!
“It was a pleasure working with Shannon during her first visit to our home to walk our dog. Her communication was excellent, she responded to my booking request and to my texts quickly and set my mind at ease that she would take good care of our dog and she did. I also really appreciated her summary of the visit and photos. I look forward to her next visit.”
“Mandy was phenomenal and I know that Mickey enjoyed every minute of his time with her to the fullest extent of his heart!! She exhibits so much care and I'll definitely be continuing with her services, much to Mickey's delight!”

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 Ashcake. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
