“We have had the pleasure to work with Shaelie for about a month now. Shaelie is a great to work with. She is trustworthy and always on time. I was nervous about having to look for a new dog walker when our last one moved out of town, but I am glad that I was able to find Shaelie. Dad is comfortable and happy with Shaelie. Our Charlie is comfortable and happy with Shaelie. So, I am comfortable and happy with Shaelie. We will continue to use Shaelie from now on. 😊😊😊🥰”
About: Because I believe pets are family, I will treat your animals like mine….like family or children! So excited to meet new friends! Humans are cool too I guess! It will be just me checking in with your pet even though I mention my husband. I have a job where I can set my own schedule, so I’m pretty flexible. I start work at 3 so I have all day to tend to your pet. The latest I will ever be at work is til 8pm. I may be away on weekends for sporting events, but still reach out to see if I will be away all day. We have 3 dogs and a baby and no fenced yard so we would not board anymore animals. But as far as taking care of animals in your home, I will greet them and give them all the loves they are missing. I will tend to their needs, if you have a fenced yard I will play with them outside if not I will play with them inside being careful of surroundings. I will take your dogs on walks or cats if they like it! I will take your pet on a car ride to get them out too if you want. My pets love it!
About: I have had a pet dog since I was born I had a two labs and now I have a golden retriever. They all had different personality and traits to them, I have been around dogs my whole life and I love them lots! I take care of my neighbors dogs and cats when on vacation or just need help. I am going to be a senior in highschool just looking for some extra money, I have practice in the mornings tell 10 and after that I’m free all night I have a golden retriever who is so sweet and calm, I have a lake they can swim in and crates if needed. We have a fenced in yard also.
About: I adore all animals (especially dogs!) and take pride in prioritizing your pet’s safety and comfort. Over the years, I've had the privilege of caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, birds, and fish! I'm committed to providing the same level of love and care for others that I provide for my own pet, a wonderfully wiggly cocker spaniel. I have professional experience training my spaniel on wildlife detection work, and I understand the needs of high energy breeds. I received two degrees from the University of Nebraska; a Bachelor of Science in Fisheries and Wildlife, and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish. Two of my favorite activities include spending time outside, and giving lots of love to animals. I am currently working to build on my existing client base and have lots of time to play, walk, or keep your pet company. Have any questions? Ask away! I can accommodate your preferences- whether that's providing company, playing, exercising, or doing some scent work exercises to work your pooch's brain! The safety of your pet is my number one priority. On walks, I practice situational awareness and always keep an eye out for off-leash dogs or other potential hazards.

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 Baxter. 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.
