“Ashley is wonderful! We’ve hired her to walk our two small pups midday M-F on a long term basis and we’re SO happy that we found her. She’s very communicative, kind, thoughtful and so very loving to our pups. It gives us great peace of mind knowing that our little ones are getting love and attention, exercise, fresh air, treats, play time and tummy rubs while we’re away. We highly recommend her. Thank you Ashley!!”
About: I've had many pets since I was a young child. My grandparents had a farm so I've had experience with all sorts of animals. My dream is to have an animal sanctuary some day. I believe it's important to provide care to an animal in their home to limit stress and disruption to their normal routine. I have 3 dogs at home. Many of my home cleaning clients have animals so I'm exposed to all types of pets on a daily basis. Walking dogs provides exercise not only to the dog but for me as well. Providing care and a routine that the animal is used to is important to me. Communication with the pet parent is key to a successful experience with any animal.
“Thanks so much Cassidy for taking good care of Archie like always so appreciate your care of him and making sure that he has all of his needs met! I’m so grateful of your attentiveness and flexibility to make sure that my little guy has the best experience while I’m away. You’re the best!”
“Jadon did an incredible job taking care of my dog while I was out of town. He kept me well informed with updates on their walks, how they were interacting, and even dogs they met in my building. I always worry about my 10 year old pup while I am gone, but with Jadon’s pictures and feedback, this made for a memorable experience. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a friendly, great with dogs walker. I will happily be booking him again knowing how well he takes care of dogs and his thoroughness with communicating. Thanks again!”
About: I've had the privilege of caring for dogs for over a decade. I have experience administering medication, walking, cleaning and playing with puppies and middle age dogs. I am a full time artist with quite an open and flexible schedule. I am available during the day during the week and flexible during weekends. I love playing and spending time with my own cat, catering to her needs and spending time together. I have no issue crating other's dogs if asked.
“Hire Frank!! They are kind, communicative and reliable. I have a big sweet dog who is sometimes a handful, and I felt totally at ease with Frank walking her. I will definitely call on them again and definitely recommend!”
About: I grew up working in my mother's veterinary clinic. I provide loving, educated care for all animals giving comfort by meeting them where they are. I work from home so can be with your beloved fur babies at all times. I live with two other animal lovers who would adore them too. I would care for your pets in whatever way you tell me to. You make the rules. Treats are available and frequent potty visits are provided.
“Deanna is an incredible dog whisperer:) Lola absolutely loves spending time with her! I highly recommend 🙂 I’ve always appreciated Deanna’s sharp communication and photo updates. Book her today! :)”
“Theo had walked my dogs before, so I was SO happy to see they were back on Rover! They’re so accommodating with my schedule, and my dogs adore them. I also appreciated how prompt they were in responding. I look forward to using their services again in the future!”
“Lena did a great job walking my sweet but reactive Cowpie. She gets so sad when I'm away and Lena was able to get her out the door and make it happen.”
About: I have experience with small dogs, big dogs, crazy cats and shy cats. I know each animal has a different way of life. I take into consideration all of their favors and sensitivities. I want each animal to feel loved and as comfortable as possible while they are away from their parents. I mostly have open availability. I usually only work at night for about five hours for about only three days a week. I have a pretty flexible schedule and if you contact me, we can work something out! I live in an apartment. I have a small backyard with no fence. I have a park nearby where I can walk dogs. I am also willing to come to the animals home and care for them there as well.
About: I have spent my whole life growing up with a wide variety of dogs and cats, and also rabbits, geckos, fish, shrimp and African dwarf frogs! Although I don’t have the resources to have a fur baby, I love and adore my aquarium and would love to care for your fur babies as well! i have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to crate my own hours, as well as work from home as much as needed. I also have the freedom of being able to come and go from my work as needed throughout the day I unfortunately do not have the space or the time to adopt and care for a pet of my own and how unfair that would be to the animal when I go back to work, but my aquarium is perfect for me! I have catfish, shrimp, and African dwarf frogs that I love and adore. I also provide very attentive and caring attention to any pets that I watch or interact with
About: Had dogs my whole life. Mines a coward and we'd need to check that he gets along with yours first, he'll get bullied if I'm not careful, the poor thing I stay home all day and spend as much of my time as possible outside. Your dog may come back muddy though, the messier you get the more fun you had and all! I am home all day with eyes/ears on the pets nearly constantly. I also spend so much time in environments that encourage explorative play and will keep most dogs too busy to get bored and act out in the first place. If a pet did act out, there's more than enough space in my place to separate animals and allow them to decompress. If at your place, mine is kennel trained for the same idea.
About: Hello all! I have a bit of a unique story when it comes to my pet care experience, but I spent the earlier half of the 2020s taking care of my dear childhood pets: my elderly Sunshine Boy Cocker Spaniel Spot, and my two tuxedo cats Prince Taco and Sweet Baby Kara. Sadly I lost them all in 2023, but I was grateful that they all lived to about 15-16. Thanks to them (and now my job, see below), I have years of experience for pets as babies up until their golden years. I can adapt to what your pet needs. ♥️ I have worked as a Dog Handler for a dog boarding and daycare facility, so my day has quite literally revolved around taking care of other peoples’ pets. In the case that I’m lucky to meet your baby/babies, I’ll most likely just bounce around from my job to caring for them. My shifts are approx. 5 hours so I can get around with my car pretty easily! I’d like to adapt to whatever your pet may need at the time. Most of my pet sitting experiences have ended up with cuddles on the couch and just loving up on your pet with kisses and hugs LOL, but just let me know what is most comfortable for your dog or cat and they will be in good hands. :)
About: Growing up, we always had a variety of pets; they were part of the family. Animals just have a way of brighting my day. I have my own pooch, Gwen who is the sweetest but I might be a little biased. My partner has four cats that I often help with and love them as if they were my own. Im patient and compassionate and have a hard time correcting behavior when it comes to animals. My partner tells me I need more follow through but it's hard when Gwen gives those sad eyes, she knows how to manipulate me well. All that is to say, if you are wanting a sitter that is kind, patient, and full of pets to care for your four-legged friend with treats and some snuggles too, I'm a great candidate. My schedule is very flexible and I am often available on short notice. I usually have ample free time during weekdays as well on the weekends. I have a large, centrally located apartment in Portland proper. Gwen, my dog is my only roommate. She is super sweet, non-aggressive, and gets along well with other dogs. We go on many walks around the neighborhood. I'd treat your pet with the same love and care I do for my Gweny Girl if they were to visit. Im also available to provide care in your home, if preferred.

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 Bull Run. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 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.
