I enjoy doing anything outside and would be more than happy to take your dog(s) on hikes. I hope that you take into consideration what I have provided you and look forward to hearing from you soon! Enjoy your day! Thank you! I currently don't have my own animal. I take care of other's animals and have always been good with that. Hope to hear from you! I would treat any clients home like my own. I want to leave it the way the it was when I arrived at your home to take care of your animal(s).

My animal care taking goes beyond just dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for reptiles and I was a horse caretaker for 5 years!

“I was pretty amazed at how quickly our boy took to Anna. He was immediately calm with her when she did her meet and greet and did an outstanding job on his walk today. Highly recommend!”
About: I have lived and taken care of dogs for my whole life. I have had all sorts of dogs from small to large. I currently have three dogs, A black Lab, Golden retriever, and a three-legged rescue Chihuahua. I am a college student home for the summer, I am a student athlete, so my mornings are occupied for training, but the rest of my days are fully open. In my home, I take care of my animals by walking them, feeding them, and playing with them. I also comfort them when they are scared of thunder or fireworks.
About: Please note that my rates are set the way they are because Rover charges a service fee. I’ve been caring for other people’s pets since I was 16 years old. Over the years, I’ve provided dog sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits to give pets attention and companionship while their owners were at work. I also worked full-time as a dog trainer for about two years, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. In addition to dogs, I have extensive experience caring for cats. I’m comfortable administering medications, including oral medications and injections, and I’ve cared for pets with special medical needs that require medication or shots on a strict schedule. I’ve also cared for senior dogs and cats, as well as puppies and kittens, so I’m confident handling pets at every stage of life. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide safe, loving, and reliable care every time. I am flexible during the day and at night, and I can reliably walk, feed, administer medication, and give your pet the attentive care they deserve. With experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own dog and cat, I understand how important it is to treat every animal with patience, consistency, and love. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and make sure your fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work with dogs every day, so I know how to recognize signs of stress and respond with patience and understanding. I also have a large fenced-in yard, though I mainly care for pets in clients’ homes, where they often feel most relaxed. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own.

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 Bastress. 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 , 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 Bastress 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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
