“Shelby was able to accommodate my last minute booking, she did so with professionalism and so much flexibility! I was blown away by how sweet she was. She walked my dog, played with her in the house with her toys and went above and beyond for everything. The level of communication was great and she took pictures of the walk as well. My dog is shy with strangers and Shelby went slowly introducing herself to get her warmed up, had lots of treats for her. She was gentle while wrangling my energetic boxer puppy, and went out of her way to make me feel comfortable. Will definitely book again with her!”
“I recently hired Kerry as a dog walker for my Evan, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Kerry is incredibly reliable and professional. She also provides regular updates and is very communicative, which gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them isn't just a job—it's my passion. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, cats, fish, birds, rabbits, small animals, and even some farm animals. My parents bred AKC Golden Retrievers, which gave me hands-on experience raising and caring for puppies from a young age. I also have experience caring for senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I'm a proud mom to an amazing 11-year-old son who loves animals just as much as I do. We also have a 35-pound Mini Goldendoodle named Scooby-Doo, who brings so much joy to our family and inspired the name of my pet care business. I'm comfortable administering medications and following each pet's individual routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. During house sitting visits, I'm also happy to help with light household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail and packages, taking out the trash, and keeping an eye on your home. I believe every pet deserves exceptional care, love, and respect. Just as importantly, I believe great pet care is built on trust, communication, and reliability. My goal is to build lasting relationships with pet parents by providing dependable, compassionate care and treating every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I'm excited to share that I've officially made pet care my full-time career! I recently left my full-time job to focus on growing Scooby Doo Animal Care because caring for animals is truly my passion! 🥰 I'm a proud mom to an amazing 11-year-old son and a male Mini Goldendoodle named Scooby-Doo. I've been caring for animals since I was young and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, cats, small animals, and farm animals. My parents bred AKC Golden Retrievers, giving me hands-on puppy experience, and I'm also comfortable administering medications and caring for senior pets with special needs. Now that pet care is my full-time focus, I have much more open availability! If you're looking for dependable, compassionate, and experienced care for your pets, I'd love the opportunity to help. Thank you for supporting my small business! I provide the best care to the animals I care for from playing with them with their favorite toys, taking animals for walks or giving them attention and cuddles.
About: Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly believes dogs are family. ❤️ While I’m new to professional dog walking, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a variety of situations. I’ve had dogs for many years, cared for my sister’s dogs, helped with the arrival of multiple litters of puppies, and have experience caring for senior dogs. I’ve also recently fostered dogs and regularly walk dogs at my local animal shelter, where I get to spend time with dogs of different personalities, ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. I especially have a soft spot for rescue dogs and love helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different. Some pups want an energetic adventure and lots of exploring, while others—including senior dogs—may need a slower pace, extra patience, or a little more TLC. I’m happy to meet your dog where they are and give them the individual attention they need. I genuinely love being outdoors, hiking, walking, and spending time in nature, so getting outside with a dog is something I truly enjoy—not just a job. My goal is for your dog to get exercise, attention, companionship, and plenty of love while you’re away. And I’m a cat lover, too! 🐱 I currently have cats of my own and would be happy to provide cat drop-in visits as well. Whether they need food, fresh water, a clean litter box, playtime, or simply some company and attention, I’m happy to help. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always come first. ❤️🐾 My work schedule changes from week to week, so I don’t have the same days off every week. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my available days and times, so what you see on my calendar reflects my current availability. If you have a specific date in mind that isn’t showing as available, feel free to message me and I’ll see what I can do! 🐶🐱❤️ Trust means everything when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home. I don’t take that trust lightly. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Safety always comes first. I’ll follow your instructions, stay attentive to your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and be mindful of their individual needs and surroundings. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your furry family members are doing while you’re away. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or stopping in to care for your cat, my goal is simple: keep them safe, happy, comfortable, and loved—and leave you with peace of mind. 🐶🐱❤️

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.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
