About: Through my life I have experienced taking care of family pets, from the puppy stage to crossing the rainbow bridge. I often think I love animals more than people. I am currently working from home part time with flexible hours, so I can play with and cuddle your fur babies as much as they want. I can board, pet sit or just walk your dog weekdays or weekends day or night. I have a fenced in yard with one senior dog. I can crate a dog up to 40lbs. We can go for walks if desired.
“Very nice and friendly, and Scottie really loved her. He came back tired after his walk, which shows he had a great time. We had a very positive experience and would definitely book again”
About: I’m an experienced dog owner with years of hands-on care for dogs of different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I currently care for a cat (My sweet Sassy) and multiple dogs, including German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois and my small breed Corgi Beagle mix Luke-y so I’m very comfortable with large, active, and high-energy breeds. I’m experienced with structured walks, exercise, feeding routines, basic commands, medication schedules, and giving each dog individualized attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I will treat your babies with the same patience, attentiveness, and love that I give my loves. I’m currently in the military but love nothing more than hanging out with my babies - and more babies we meet the greater! :) My babies are such a huge part of my everyday routine, so adding another pup to the mix comes pretty naturally to me. We’re big on walks, outside time, playing fetch and tug and just hanging out on the couch. I’m used to planning my day around my cat and dogs and making sure each gets the attention and exercise they need. I have multiple dogs of my own, so I know every dog is different and has their own personality and needs. I’m very comfortable with XL / big dogs and high-energy breeds, but I’m also big on keeping everyone safe and structured. I’ll follow whatever routine you have for your pup and treat them like I would want someone to treat mine.
“Lacy and Piper are always so excited to see Greg and Jane for walks. They are always on time and walk the dogs on the route I requested and give them lots of pets. I will definitely request Greg and Jane when I need dog sitting or the dogs walked.”

I love spending my time with dogs. Make sure they are happy and loved. Feed and make sure they get enough food, water and affection. Most of all exercise love and safety
“Sam is amazing! She did a great job taking care of my dogs and let herself available even I needed a sitter last minute. Appreciate her a lot and the love she gave to Olaf and Kirby! Will definitely recommend her to other furparents.”
“Cynthia was amazing- she went above and beyond the call of duty. It’s obvious that she loves animals. It stormed all weekend while we were gone, but she was very careful to make sure that our dog was comfortable. Thank you, Cynthia.”
“Alli did an outstanding job of watching our dog for a week. She was always on time and left us great notes after each walk. Most importantly, our dog was calm and happy when we got home - a true sign that our dog was perfectly cared for. We’ll use Alli from now on.”
About: I’ve grown up around and taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles. I have experience working with rescue animals, puppies, elderly pets, and administering medications. Caring for animals is something that has always been a consistent part of my life. I’m currently in college and apart from classes, my schedule is very open and I am super flexible. I’m usually available for a meet and greet same day or next day, and I consistently answer my phone quickly. I go to university in the fall and spring, keeping me close to the area at all times. My schedule is very open, so I will be able to spend adequate time playing with and giving attention to your pet. I can spend the night with them and can take them outside frequently! I treat all animals with love and respect, just as I would treat my own. I am flexible, being able to provide just about any kind of care for your pet and open communication for you!
About: ****Attention****Before booking your pet’s stay with me, if your dog is an escape risk, I will not service them. ( I will go into more detail through booking.) I have taken care of my family member dogs and ever since then , my family never relies on anyone else to take care of them. I will walk , feed , play and bathe your pets. I will do everything I can to make sure your pups are having a good time and make sure they are happy with their experience. I am available everyday of the week and I can also work around your time so I have all day and night to play and take care of your pups !

About: I am an absolute animal lover, always have been, always will be. Animals have been on the earth long before humans, and hopefully will always be around, long after humans, and to save the earth from humans. They are pure, non-judgemental, authentic and true to their nature. Their natural spirit contains no evil or manipulative tendencies whatsoever. They are wonderfully versed in non-verbal communication, through eye contact, bodily movement, and natural sounds. I treasure all breeds of animals but of course have the most experience with cats and dogs. Ever since I was a child, I have enjoyed and treasured the friendship and companionship of my pets I have had experience with canines and felines of all ages and sizes.I look forward to meeting your pet and treating them as if they were my own. I I am at a time and place in my life where I do have the time and the place to be a pet-sitter. I have been a family caregiver, for my brother and then my mother, since 2018 That took quite a bit of time and attention, but they are both in a more peaceful place now. My two young adult children are more independent and one is moving out. I have inherited the family house and land, the house my grandpa built in the late 1940's on an acre of land full of trees on a quiet street. I have always wanted to spend more time and attention with animals and this is the right time and place. I can care and board your pet in my house or yours. I have a large yard with plenty of trees and a ranch style house. I only have one pet, he is a handsome older feline that gets along with cats, dogs, rabbits, mice, etc, I can come to your house if you and your pet would be more comfortable with that.
“Bailey had been a huge help for my parents! I reached out to her asking if she could take on a new client within 24 hrs due to elderly parents health emergency. She responded within minutes and showed up on time everyday. My parent’s dog absolutely loves her and it has been a huge blessing for my parents during recovery. And for me being out of state, puts my mind at ease that she is helping in a way I cannot. I highly recommend her”
About: Over the years I have taken care of so many different kinds of animals. Personally, I’ve had three bunnies, a hamster, a fish and currently have a dog. I’ve learned that pets make life more fun and interesting! I’m currently working part time, so I am available most days. I am usually flexible and I am willing to frequently communicate with you about your pets needs. Pets often have to be at home alone, so I love getting to brighten their day! I think it’s important to give them love and attention because they deserve it and need it!
About: Choosing someone to care for your dog is a big decision, and you want peace of mind knowing they're in capable, loving hands. I've had the pleasure of caring for many dogs over the years, both in their own homes and in mine. This experience has taught me how to truly care for dogs, making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. You can rest assured your dog will be well-cared for, receiving plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. Since I work from home, your dog seamlessly becomes part of my day! They'll get consistent attention and supervision because I'm around most of the time. This means no long stretches of being alone; instead, they'll be right in the mix of a lively, active household. We'll fit in plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and even just cozy lounging nearby while I'm at my desk. My schedule is super flexible, so it's easy to make sure they get their walks, meals, and individual play sessions right on time. When caring for pets, I treat them like part of the family—whether in my home or yours. I follow their usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. In my home, we have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and I can easily crate your dog if needed or requested. I provide a clean, secure, and comfortable environment where your pet can feel at ease. In your home, I’m respectful of your space while making sure your pet feels safe and loved. I also send regular updates with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Our first experience with Rover was pretty rough so it has been several years since I’ve used it…but our sitter graduated and is heading out of state for college so I started looking for another sitter. Callie has done a great job, and has been punctual, thorough, and most importantly she is really good to our fur babies. I’ll gladly become a repeat client, thanks very much for taking exceptional care of our doggies, Callie.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been personally responsible for my own dogs for the past 14 years. I currently have three dogs at home and have experience with everything from small breeds to large dogs. I also have extensive experience caring for dogs with medical and senior-care needs. One of my dogs developed Addison’s disease at a young age and later battled cancer, so I became very comfortable with administering injections and medications, managing chronic health needs, and caring for a dog through chemotherapy, arthritis and mobility changes. As he got older, we adapted his routine so he could still enjoy walks and activities safely and comfortably. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, especially when they have special needs. I’m patient, attentive and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible, whether that means a morning walk, some midday company, or extra love while you’re away. I keep my Rover calendar updated so you’ll always know when I’m available! I know how much trust it takes to leave a member of your family and your home in someone else’s care. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, your instructions, and any house rules closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to body language and individual needs and will never force an interaction or put your pet in an uncomfortable situation. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and am always happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your family member is in good hands.
About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life. My sweet Charlie passed in 2024 and to fill the void, I am now taking care of other people's pets. I am able to administer meds or whatever is needed. I work from home, so I am very flexible in my schedule. I can go to your house for boarding, or your pets can stay here. I love having toys around for the pups to play with. Very pet friendly environment. I do not have any other pets in my home. I only have one booking at a time. I want to make sure to give your fur babies all the love they deserve. Its only me at my home. My son is in college.
About: I really enjoy spending time with furry friends and provide a lot of attention and care to them. I am attentive to their behavior and emotional state and communicate everything to owners immediately. My perfect fit would be mature dogs with moderate to low energy levels, that are quiet and like to cuddle. I don't do well with highly anxious dogs but can provide a good level of support to slightly/moderately anxious dogs. I can provide regular exercise in a form of the walk as often as needed but am unable to take the doggy out more often than every 3 hours. About me: I'm quiet, responsible, and easygoing. Don't have visitors often. I like to draw, do something crafty and read! Prefer a quiet environment. My parents live with me too. My dad works full time, but my mom is almost always home. I'm have flexible schedule and often work at home, so your pet won't be left alone very often. And if we do need to leave, it would only be a few hours and I would mention it to the owners to make sure it is okay. I can provide potty breaks every 3-4 hours but prefer dogs that can stay alone without potty break for 4-6 hours just in case. I will do what I can to accommodate your pet's needs! We have double door and I usually a bit anxious about safety and concern about dogs running away. I will also make sure there is nothing unsafe on the floors before pup arrives.

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.
