About: I'm an energetic person who enjoys being with dogs. I pay close attention to detail and I am always willing to engage in activities to keep your dog busy but I also know dogs need some down time as well. I stay at home full-time so I will be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time in the backyard. I am currently a dog daddy to a Chihuahua named Lucy. She'll be 1 years old on November 1st. She's very loving and friendly dog. I have 7 years of experience. I don't mind taking your dogs or puppies out for walks instead of just staying in the backyard. I will take good care of your beloved pets as if they were my very own.
About: I work at a doggy daycare have over 3 years of experience taking care of dogs, feeding and medications if needed. I can also basic training dogs. I currently work part time. Im free Thursday - all day, Friday - all day and Saturday - till 5pm. If I am needed for a bathroom break or feeding they will be well taken care of. I currently do not own a animal. I have learned with my doggy daycare experience that you have to keep your head on a swivel because some animals can get into what they shouldn't.
About: Hiya! I'm Rebecca and I was in school to become a vet tech, but now I'm going to school to be a mortician and I'm a tattoo apprentice. I live in Kenosha, which is 15 minutes from the beach and I live around the boarder of Illinois too!! I'm an animal lover I have two dogs at home, an 8-year old westie and a corgi/heeler mix puppy. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs! My friends have cats that I care for when needed. I have also taken care of horses, reptiles, rodents, and birds as well! My availability is pretty open right now, but I do have dungeons and dragons on Sundays, Friday and Monday nights. So I wouldn't mind if you needed me to do pop-in visit or walks! I can hold a small conversation in ASL! :) I cannot wait to meet you and your fur babies in the future!! :) I have dungeons and dragons on Sundays from 12pm - 5pm, Mondays from 6-9:30pm (online), and Fridays from 6-9:30pm so taking care of your fur baby will not be a problem if they can be left alone for a few hours. Otherwise, I'm available at anytime! I'm very flexible, so if you need an someone to do an emergency sitting for awhile, I'd be more than happy to look after your fur babies during that time! I treat your companions like my own pups, spoiled and treated like queens or kings. I will go to your house and stay there for the sitting including overnights. However, if you do not let your fur baby on furniture, I will respect and follow the house rules. I can take your fur baby for a walk, or we can go to the dog park if you're okay with that! If your furbaby needs medication or fluids, I would prefer to show me how you do it at home, so they can be the most comfortable when I have to give them their medication when you're away. I may a have a friend come by, but I will always ask first. I promise you that there will be no wild parties in your home!

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 Bristol. 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 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.
