“Aubrey was really sweet, and good with my dog who has a previous history of being reactive. She was very understanding, followed all instructions, and was attentive. I’d book with her again!”
About: I have had animals my entire life. I have taken care of cats and dogs and rodents. I have been trusted to house sit for others and take care of many pets at once. I loved doing it every single time! I am working to be a full time artist so my schedule is very flexible. I can accept last minute jobs easily. This is my main source of income currently I have two wonderful cats at home that both get a lot of love in the ways they need. Greg is my cuddle bug who loves to be close and snuggle. Bella is my independent baby who loves pets on her terms and playing with her many toys. I also have a hamster named Rickey who has his own spoils. I can check in on small animals too, even if they’re not on the app specifically.
“Martina is great! Our German Shepherd loves his walks with her and she is working great at getting our golden to warm up and go for walks, which might not ever happen but always appreciate the effort and initiative!!”
About: I currently own 3 energetic dogs that adore! I am responsible for all aspects of their care. I have also dog sat for friends and family in the past. I am a graduate student so there are some times that I am not available, but most weekends and early morning and nights I can be available! I usually have breaks between classes that I can be available to check in on or walk your pet. At a client’s home you can count on me to make sure your animal is safe, loved, and cared for. I will do everything in my power to make sure the animal feels comfortable and not too out of routine.
About: Hello! I have had all kinds of pets growing up. I have always had at least a dog and a cat. Currently i personally have a 7 month old puppy and a 2 year old cat. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for about two years now. I would love to meet your furry friend! I currently am working 4 days a week but am free after work and my days off. My days off are Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I will be attending school starting in November so my schedule will change then. I currently have a 7 month old puppy and a two year old cat, but have always had a pet so I have taken care of pets of all ages and breeds. My friends and family all have varying breeds and ages of dogs and I am comfortable with all of them! I always make sure to spend a good amount of time with them.
About: Animals have always been my passion, ever since I was young. Having four dogs and two cats at home, I’m experienced in multiple types of pets! Any special requirement for any dog is never too big of a task. Keeping the pet happy and comfortable is my top goal. I have worked with a senior dog, keeping him comfortable and as active as he can be was somethin I took pride in doing, puppies are also no trouble. Entertaining and making sure they potty where they’re supposed to. Messes are no problem though, upset stomachs are something that happen and it’s okay! Accidents happen too and I’m up to cleaning it. My schedule is normally pretty open. I have taken care of three dogs for years, and then having one more to the group to make four. I would be going to your home to help take care of your dog or cat. Keeping them comfortable is my main goal, I always wait with patience and take my time to try to bond with your pet.
About: I’m a natural born animal lover. I grew up rescuing birds and any kind of critter since I was a small child. I lived in Missouri and was blessed with a big yard to fill with dogs and a loving home to fill with cats. I also have a strong passion for rabbits after adopting a disabled rabbit. Long term animal shelter volunteer and worked with Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue. Fear-Free training and certified. I’m extremely flexible. I work from home for a fulfillment company and work for myself. I do have a medical asthetics license but not working out of home right now. I think communication is so important- especially when it comes to your loved ones. I am happy to provide photos and detailed updates. I also love all animals so it’s not a challenge to treat others as if they were my own.
About: I have always had my own personal dogs and cats as well as occasionally taking care of the pets of friends and family. For the past 5 years, I have worked as a veterinary assistant in a companion animal hospital. In my work and personal experience I have cared for almost all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am currently a full-time college student taking primarily online classes. This means I have a pretty flexible schedule and can be available when needed. My focus is to care for your pets as I would my own. A positive and enjoyable experience for your pet is my main priority!
“Taylor was great! She came over the day before to meet the doggies. Even though the times I originally requested were a little difficult for her schedule that day (it was last minute,) she did all she could to make it as close as possible- and ended up being there about the time I had requested anyway. I scheduled two visits in one day, and while I said the second visit only needed to be a feed and let out in the yard - she asked if they could still go for a walk. :) She was also very observant and noticed a small scratch on one of my dogs, sent a photo, and asked if I wanted her to treat it. I really appreciate all the attentiveness; and the above and beyond she provided for my babies. Most importantly, the dogs seemed to really like her too. :) We are already planning for her to return. Thank you!”
About: I am a vet student at Mizzou who is open to becoming your go-to person for pet-sitting needs! I am very flexible and willing to negotiate whatever you need to feel comfortable while you are away. This summer I am working at a research facility in which I am only there a few hours a week. So my schedule is pretty open! I live in a duplex house located Northeast of COMO. I'm more open to in-house visits rather than pet sitting where I live, but I'm flexible.
About: Animal Sciences undergraduate on the pre-veterinary track. Began pet-sitting in 2019. Small Animal Critical Care Attendant in the Intensive Care Unit at the University of Missouri Veterinary Health Center since January 2026. 300+ hours as an Animal Care Attendant at Silver Maple Pet Center (Doggy Daycare and Boarding). My volunteer work with the Mizzou Service Dog Club (through Retrieving Freedom Inc.) and Central Missouri Humane Society has provided me with an abundance of training and handling experience with dogs of all different behaviors, breeds, and training levels. Experienced in animal care, handling, training, and support! I work as a Manager at Crazy Bowls and Wraps 5 days a week and I shadow at McCauley Animal Clinic 1 day a week. I am able to feed, walk, and provide potty breaks before and after my shifts. I am able to stay overnight for all House-Sitting bookings. Animal care is my passion and it is my priority to make as much time for my clients’ pets as possible. I have experience with pet and babysitting, both of which have given me the skills to keep your home and your pet safe, comfortable, clean, and organized. I don't mind getting my hands dirty to keep yours clean! I also have experience in animal medicine for animals that require medication, special handling, and/or emergencies.
About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was little! My mom owned a rescue and we have several pets of our own. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, chickens, and lizards. I have taken care of pups 0-16, and some with special needs like medication and specific diets! I am currently home on winter break from college, so rest assured I will have plenty of time for your pup! I am a very outdoorsy person, and love to go on hikes and walks! I have an unfenced yard (around 2 acres), and a neighborhood nearby that I walk my own dog in. I have one friendly dog and four cats. I am able to take care of any special needs or requests your pet might have!
“Donna is EXCELLENT with my dogs Charlie and Buddy. They're Maltese-Shih Tzu mixes, 7 and 3 years old, and they absolutely love her and they walks she takes them on. I've watched her with my boys and based on what I've seen, would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a walker with a great temperament and strong skills at dog handling.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kiddo. Animals including dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, cows, horses, goats, lizards, etc. I try to make the pets feel very loved as their own family would. I have experience administering medicine. I have a full time job, but am flexible and can provide potty breaks when needed! I cannot keep the animal in my home, but would love to keep them in a place where they feel comfortable!! I try and make animals feel as comfortable as possible in their own homes! I try and stick to their normal routine as much as possible
About: I have worked in professional pet care for 4 years and have been watching neighbors dogs for the past 2 years. At doggy daycare I have worked with all sizes and ages of dogs and am comfortable with all of them. I am currently and student at The University of Missouri but am still able to come to your house to watch your pet. I can stay at your house during the week or weekend, my classes are during the middle of the day so they can go out plenty of times in the morning and night. I have three dogs at home that I am very used to taking care of as well as my cat. I can follow your pets schedule so there is no difference in your care and mine.
About: I took a very active role in caring for my family dog until he tragically passed from cancer in 2019. I have also dog-sat for neighbors’ pets with particular dietary needs. Currently, I’ve been told by roommates that I have a very calming presence with our house dog. I work part time primarily in the evenings and when not working, I often have community theater rehearsals on weeknights. During the Mizzou school year I will have some classes during the day, though for no more than a few hours at a time. My current house is not available for pet boarding unless specifically negotiated. The property has a non-fenced yard and one resident dog, who does behave well with other animals. Neighborhood is safe, well-paved, and walkable.

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 Ashland. 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 Ashland.

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 Ashland. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
