About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, and small pets like gerbils. I have a calm, patient, and friendly demeanor that helps me quickly build trust with animals of all personalities. As a dedicated animal lover, I treat every pet like family. I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates and photos to keep you reassured. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and pets who require medication, and I’m attentive to their individual needs and routines I am available most days out of the week, and on weekends. I currently work from home, so I can assure you that your pet will get all the attention and love they deserve! When boarding pets in my home, they are provided with a private, comfortable space in a dedicated spare bedroom to help them feel safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am respectful of all household rules, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates and photos to ensure peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own, Rush (93 lbs) and Chase (53 lbs), so I’m very experienced handling larger dogs as well as more sensitive ones. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I treat them all like they’re my own. I’m attentive, patient, and reliable. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk, a calm and steady pace, or just someone who understands their quirks, I’ve got it covered. I’m also very mindful of safety, leash control, and making sure your pup is comfortable at all times. You can expect clear communication, updates, and someone who genuinely cares about your pup’s well-being, not just getting the walk done. I work during the day but am consistently available in the evenings on weekdays and have flexible, open availability on weekends. I’m reliable with scheduling and do my best to accommodate requests with clear communication and timely updates. I prioritize safety, structure, and your pet’s comfort at all times. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walking, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m experienced handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including larger, stronger dogs. During walks, I focus on leash control, awareness of surroundings, and avoiding unsafe situations with other dogs or distractions. In your home, I respect your space, keep things clean, and make sure your pet feels secure and stress-free. You’ll always receive updates and photos so you know exactly how your pet is doing.
“I needed a last-minute dog walker for the week and Javante was so kind to help out! We weren’t able to meet beforehand, but he was very communicative and reached out with questions. Birdie seemed to love him as well! I appreciate his help and care for her so much.”


About: I am blessed to have been able to grow up with dogs. They are my world. From puppy care to senior care, I can promise you the best for your loved ones. I work part-time and would love to get the opportunity to take care of your loved ones. Due to the nature of my job, from weekdays to weekends my availability is very open. I am so excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! With years of experience in dog walking, feeding, and training, I understand that pets need proper love and care to thrive. I prioritize creating a safe environment that keeps your babies stress-free. I am very communicative and will adhere to their usual routines while taking lots of pictures so you are confident in my care for them!
“Hi, this is Charlie, Kate did a great job and took me on long walks, and when I was skipping meals because I missed my family she made sure to contact them to let them know. She always arrived on time!”

“Coralee is wonderful! The dogs love her, she is communicative and respectful. The other day I was on an important meeting and Coralee came in the house. She knew about the meeting and was super quiet even when one of my dogs would not come to her. She really read the situation and handled it beautifully! Thank you, Coralee!”

About: I've been around dogs of all sizes my entire life, so I know how to handle all pooches with patience and care. :) I've also pet sit for multiple cats, but I don't have as much experience with them compared to dogs. However, all of the kitties I've watched over, including senior cats, eventually grew quite attached to me. I'm attending college in late August, so my daily schedule is pretty flexible until then as I do not have a summer time job. However, I do have weekly meetings every Thursday that I must show up for. Other than that, I should be available every other week day at any time of day. Depending on your fur baby's needs and comfortability, I can crate them, keep them inside at all times, make sure there's an enclosed area outside, etc.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I grew up caring for my senior dog, including giving him medication, taking him on walks, and helping with his care as he got older. I also grew up around horses and have cared for some more unusual pets, including my own ghost mantis! I currently work part-time about three days a week. My shifts vary, but I receive my schedule in advance, which allows me to plan pet care around my work schedule and coordinate availability with owners ahead of time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their normal routine and any specific instructions closely. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s space, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have one dog that is my own and one other that I consistantly help out with. I have dog sat for coworkers, family and friends. I really like walking and playing with dogs which makes this job a lot of fun for me. I care deeply about the safety of dogs, cats and other pets and will always do my best to make sure they are happy and comfortable. I am in school so right now on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I can look after pets Monday Wednesday and Friday. My weekends are open through August for sure. My dog is on a loose schedule but gets walked once a day at a minimum and gets to run around in the backyard as well. He plays with the other dog in the household and is trained very well. I love dog training and work with him several days a week. He is crate trained, but also is consistently left out of the crate and does fine.
“Charlene is an awesome dog sitter!!! She attentive and loving. She took the time to meet with Riel and I before dog sitting Riel, and asked a lot of questions to try to understand my dog. Riel loves her. Seeing the pictures of Riel while I was on a trip gives me a peace of mind! Thank you Charlene!”

About: I grew up with English Setters and an American Bulldog, so big dogs with big personalities have always felt like home. I even helped with training our Bulldog, which taught me that consistency, patience, and understanding body language go a long way. Every dog is different, and that’s one of my favorite things about them. Some want to sprint around the neighborhood, some would rather stop and sniff every single blade of grass (and I’ll happily wait while they conduct their very important investigations). I enjoy figuring out what makes each dog feel comfortable, happy, and engaged. Whether your dog is high-energy, a gentle giant, or somewhere in between, I’ll meet them where they are. My goal is simple: make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. As a mechanical engineering student, my schedule varies a bit throughout the year. I keep my calendar updated to reflect exam weeks and semester schedule changes, including the transition at the end of August. I believe pets deserve unhurried, attentive care, so I only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to. That means when I’m with your pet, they have my full attention, not just a spot squeezed into a busy schedule. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision. I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect I’d expect someone to show mine. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, respect any household rules, double-check doors and gates, and make sure your pet has fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe and happy.

About: I have two dogs of my own and have watched family and friends dogs many times in my life. I adore all animals and would love to get to know yours :) I’m currently working gig jobs for the summer so I am free the vast majority of hours the vast majority of days. I should barely have any conflicts with scheduling. I love to pet and play with animals (any). I’m very loving towards them but can be strict if need be. I clean up after myself and won’t leave a mess.
“Alyssa is a sweetheart. My boy loves her from the first meet and greet. She has a great attitude and you can tell she really loves dogs! I’m so happy she walks my Franklin when I’m at work :)”

About: I've always had a special love for animals, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet's personality. Every animal is different, and I love learning what helps them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I understand that leaving your pet at home can be stressful, especially when they take such good care of us. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk, playtime, meals, or simply some company, I'll care for your pet with the same attentiveness and thoughtfulness I'd hope someone would show mine. My schedule lends me some flexibility during the week, so daytime visits are usually easy for me to accommodate. I also try not to cram my day full of bookings because I'd rather have the time to give each pet the attention they deserve. I know it takes trust to hand someone your keys and ask them to care for your pet. I'll follow your routine as closely as possible, keep you updated with photos and messages, and let you know if anything seems out of the ordinary. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without wondering how things are going at home.
“Whinde is great! She’s walked Fred twice now, and this time I got to see that Fred was very content after her walk. She was also able to walk her for a little longer after there was a mix up with the time.”

About: As a seasoned dog sitter with 15 years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every pet care opportunity. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, coupled with my commitment to providing top-notch care tailored to each pet's unique needs. Whether it's training puppies, or simply offering companionship and fun, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every furry friend entrusted to my care. With me, your beloved pet will receive nothing short of exceptional attention and affection. We do not have any dogs in our apartment, as our boy Thumper passed away in July. I’d love to take care of your pup as well as we took care of our own! Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and I prioritize it with the utmost dedication. I schedule specific times for feeding, exercise, and playtime, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle sessions, I tailor my schedule to accommodate the needs of the pets under my care. Additionally, I maintain open communication with clients to accommodate any specific scheduling requests or changes, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. In my apartment, safety and comfort are paramount for every pet under my care. I ensure a pet-friendly environment by removing any hazards and providing plenty of space for them to move around. Additionally, I adhere to any specific instructions provided by the client regarding their pet's routine, dietary needs, and exercise regimen. Whether it's playing in designated areas, going for walks in nearby parks, or simply lounging indoors, I make sure pets feel at home and loved throughout their stay.
“Michele was great - she very professionally and thoughtfully managed our unruly dogs. She was reliable and followed through on all details and communication. She made it easy for us to be away. We didn't have to worrying about a thing. Our furry family members were in safe hands.”

David is a rare find — reliable, kind, and truly cares. There are no words to fully capture the level of care David has shown for our Oreo. He's understanding, listens with patience, and is meticulous about following directions — the kind of person you can genuinely count on. He handled our goofy husky like a pro, and even gave attention to our cats, which wasn't part of the job at all. He's also incredibly responsive and consistently goes above and beyond — taking Oreo on longer walks and spending extra time with him. David was an absolute godsend while we were out of town for an extended trip. We came home to a dog who was relaxed, happy, and honestly more fit and healthy than when we left, thanks to all the exercise he made sure Oreo got. Beyond being a wonderful dog walker, David is just a genuinely great human being — generous, humble, dependable, and someone we feel lucky to have found. Highly, highly recommend.

Happy Summer Fun! Thank you Rachel, for seeing to our sweet Ryder for a peaceful morning walk after an eventful weekend of Parades and Boom, Booms!! He enjoys this time and I am so very grateful. Its a beautiful morning ~* Enjoy the Day & Have a great week ahead! Go USA ✨⚽

Zhi W. has been an incredible dog walker for our rescue dog, Pinky. From the very beginning, she took the time to get to know Pinky and met her exactly where she was, never rushing the process. As a large rescue dog, Pinky needed a lot of patience, love, and understanding, and Zhi gave her all of that and more. Zhi has always been consistent, dependable, and an excellent communicator. She kept us updated during every walk, shared how Pinky was doing, and made us feel confident that she was in the best hands. It’s clear that she truly loves dogs and understands that every dog has unique needs. Thanks to her calm, compassionate approach, Pinky grew more comfortable and confident over time. We always felt completely at ease knowing Pinky was safe, happy, and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Zhi again and absolutely plan to schedule walks with her in the future. We highly recommend Zhi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, patient, reliable, and caring dog walker!
Jamie was wonderful to work with! She took the time to calmly listen as I shared all the details about my dog’s daily routine, arthritis, likes, and needs. I really appreciated how patient, attentive, and caring she was. She also showed me her home and backyard, which made me feel very comfortable and confident that my dog would be in a safe, loving environment. We had a great 30-minute walk together, and Jamie was so gentle and kind with my dog. It was clear that she genuinely cares about animals and takes the time to get to know each pet. I would definitely recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a compassionate pet caregiver. In fact, after our meet-and-greet walk, I felt so comfortable that I’ve already booked her to dog sit for my dog for 10 days in July. Thank you, Jamie!

My dog and I are so glad we met Judi! She treats Finny as if he were her own and he absolutely loves her! Judi is meticulous about any instructions you have for your pup and your home and, because she has so much experience with dogs, she will let you know if she notices any changes or issues with your fur baby. As a new and somewhat anxious dog mom, I can relax and focus at work knowing Judi is coming over and Finny is safe and having a great time with her on their walks.

Nicole was great! She was responsive, easy to communicate with, and took great care of my dog. She was flexible when an issue came up and made sure everything was handled. I really appreciated the updates and attention she gave him. Would definitely book with her again.

Stephania has been doing check ins for my Dachshund puppy twice a day 3x a week for a few weeks now, and it is no easy task! At our first initial meeting, Stephania asked very detailed questions about her care, training, schedule, behavior, vet information, and also my expectations on what a day to day visit would look like. Her diligence reassured me that she is detailed oriented and really cares about providing the best care possible. She is very easy to contact, responds quickly, and openly communicates. My work schedule is very random, but Stephania goes above and beyond to work around it. Stephania is also very respectful of my home, and leaves it exactly as I left it, which I really appreciate. I also have cats in my home that she is not responsible for caring for, but will still show them love and attention anyways. Poppy and I appreciate everything she does, and I am confident in rebooking her again!

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 Buena Vista. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Buena Vista. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
