About: I’ve owned dogs of all sizes since I was a child, I can handle stronger breads like pitbulls since I’ve had pittys for years. As well as smaller dogs like Shih Tzu because I have also had them aswell. I work from home so I’m very available and flexible to your schedule. Please just message me and I’ll gladly let you know. I do not board at my house but I’m more then willing to come to yours and will respect your living space to the best I can.
“Our dog normally is apprehensive around new people, and it usually takes him a while to warm up and feel comfortable. This just wasn't the case with Gabi, he took to her immediately! Gabi seems to have a genuine understanding and affection for animals, which seems to have made all of the difference for our dog. Words can't do justice to how grateful we are to have someone we trust help care for our boy!”
“First time having Lauren walk Frida. Everything went well. I received pictures from their walk. Frida enjoyed her walk. Frida and mom would definitely like to have Lauren walk her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of many pets in the past. I also have a long time favorite customer that i continually go back to for visits. I go to Nova Community College full time and work part time as an RBT (registered behavior technician) with autistic children. I own 3 dogs of my own at the current moment, so taking care of them is part of my daily routine. Anything I can do. I have a fenced in backyard at my home and i let my dogs walk freely. I’m open to any accommodations needed for dogs +cats.
About: I started dog walking and dog sitting in high school and have provided pet care on and off over the years for friends and neighbors. I work full-time from home and have the flexibility in my schedule to go on walks throughout my day as well as to work from wherever. I’m nurturing, attentive, and punctual. I will provide the proper care and love that your pet deserves. I’ll go above and beyond to ensure that your pet feels comfortable, safe, and right at home.
About: I have walked, stayed overnight with, given medicine to, and played with animals of all shapes and sizes. I am studying to become a vet so I am an all around animal person! I work from coffee shops a lot so I have a flexible enough schedule to regularly let pets out, feed them, or perform other caretaking tasks throughout the day. I am very adaptable and enjoy taking care of pets in their homes. I like to maintain their regular schedules and be present with them as much as possible during my stay.
“Thanks for helping us out with walking Riley and Archie this week! Really appreciated the time you spent with Riley too to get her comfortable with you. Will be sure to reach out in the future!”
About: In addition to being an approved foster home for Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, and one very cute hamster throughout my 48 years. After both of my senior rescue pups passed away from old age during Covid, I've really missed having a furry companion running around. I'm not quite ready to have my own pet full-time again but enjoy caring for others' furry friends between foster pups. Open to full day, evenings, or weekends. Seniors have a special place in my heart and are always welcome. I am very experienced with those that have special needs or medicines. I do ask that all pets are kid friendly as I have a 10 year old "trainer" that comes with me and really enjoys reading to the pups at bedtime. Though my son will keep his distance from dogs that are skittish, we want a safe and calm place for both the pet and child to stay when they're in our home. For stays in our home, especially those last minute needs, we have beds, crates, bowls, toys, and even various types of emergency food just in case. We're who you need in a pinch or if your flight is delayed on the way home. Boarding in our home always comes with multiple walks a day and often a fun adventure and patio time! Working from home makes flexible pick up and drop off scheduling a breeze for pups staying with me! I look forward to making your pet part of our family while you're away. Be sure to let me know if they'd enjoy the park and long walks or prefer a more laid back stay with extra cuddles or space to decompress and we'll adjust. We sit for many families in our neighborhood and several prior dogs have walked with us to and from school (Hi Georgie!)... while others have napped most of the day away. (Hi Duke, Lana, and Mimi, I'm looking at you!) Need me to pick up to make it easier to head out of town? Or deliver once you're home? I gotcha! I have a small fenced in yard and lots of open green space out back to keep your pup busy! Does your pet prefer a walk around the neighborhood? We'll show them around around and where the best town "gossip" is located. Our "fur-iends" who visit love to check their "pee-mails" and we know all the great spots. Have a well behaved pooch? Your pet will always have free range of my home, if they're most comfortable contained near their humans I can close off doors and block off stairs! We even have extra floor coverings for those a little older that appreciate extra traction when walking. Does the pup like crates better at night, just let me know and I'll follow your routine! We have a couple med/lg sized ones here I keep on hand, in case they're needed. I usually keep the doors off so they can use it as a safe place whenever they'd like unless mom or dad prefers otherwise! Safety is incredibly important to us so all animals will stay leashed outside and I have a 2 pet limit set on Rover so things stay calm and we have plenty of scratchies & snuggle time with the dogs who like to hang out with humans. Have a senior pup who wants to hide somewhere quiet? There's plenty of great hiding spots and we'll tote a bed over to their new favorite spot to keep them comfy.
“Katherine is a professional and diligent house/pet sitter. She is always very caring towards our 2 dogs. 10 out of 10 would totally use again, and very highly recommend her for pet care needs.”
About: I’ve had birds, hamsters, turtles and dogs growing up. As an adult and my busy schedule… cats have made their way into my heart and home. I miss being a dog owner and have friends that have them so I get my fix. I switched jobs over a year ago which has given me more time. I work remote 2 days a week but my days in the office are short. My son just graduated HS so I’m starting to have more and more time on my hands so why not spend it with animals! Best way to spend free time! The hardest part of pet sitting is leaving them. Most pets just want love and attention and I hate leaving them alone so they will get my full attention when with them.
About: I've been pet-sitting for different families for the past three years, and I also have experience caring for animals on a farm. I love being around animals and making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I'm happy to work around each pet's needs. I make time for feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets attention and care while their owners are away. I'm responsible, flexible, and enjoy making sure every pet feels comfortable and safe. I make sure every pet gets the care and attention they need, whether that means feeding them, playing with them, going on walks, or just spending time with them. I try to stick to their normal routine, so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also make sure to follow any instructions the owners leave me and keep their space clean and safe.
About: I had a German shepherd and Siberian husky both great dogs but boy were those girls headaches at times I know a lot of tips and tricks when it comes to dogs not that i have any certified experience just from my own 2 personal pets hopefully that shows how genuine it would be to watch someone else’s dog I work 3 days a week 13 hour days so Im free majority of the week and my days consist of gym, reading, and work on laptop I respect that I’m in there space and build trust as if it were the homeowner because it’s also the animals home as well, hopefully building trust and a relationship with the pet.
About: Whether you have a playful pup, a cuddly cat, or a unique exotic pet, I offer personalized, compassionate care right in your home or mine. With experience across a wide range of animals, I ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Flexible scheduling, daily updates, and lots of love guaranteed! I work from home, and have a fairly flexible schedule. It’s rare that I’m out of my house longer than two hours. I take frequent walks. I have a fenced in yard, safety is always on my mind, and I’m very detail oriented. I take my job seriously, and treat your pets as if they are my own.
“David R. Was absolutely terrific! This was his first time walking Lulu, and she was so comfortable with him from the beginning! He has a natural affinity for dogs…..it’s so apparent that he loves his profession. Lulu and myself are looking forward to many more walks with David R! I cannot thank him enough for his patience and care for my sweet girl.”
“Reese is absolutely wonderful with Jojo! Reliable, great communication, and best if all Jojo loves her 🐾💕 It was a leap of faith trusting a person to come to our home like this but I'm so glad we did!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid! It’s one of life’s pleasures to bond with them, and in my care I hope to make your fur baby feel safe as can be. No matter if they’re grumpy or sweet as can be, I will care for them as if they are my own! Thank you so much for your consideration! I’m available weekends and weekdays, day and night to housesit. I don’t have many external commitments, so please reach out to me for more details! I will provide a calm presence for your animals. I grew up around many cats at once, so I would say I have a specialty working with them. Since I have no animals of my own, I will fall in love with your dog or cat as soon as I meet them. I feel a deep connection to all animals.

Bridget did a great job helping take care of our dog Thor when he needed to be taken out a couple times during the day since he’s a lot for me to handle alone! Our other dog Loki also loved having her come over to give him some extra love! We would definitely use her services again!
Ella helped take care of my anxious Australian shepherd while we were away for the weekend. When she came for a meet and greet,y dog warmed up to her almost immediately! She was incredibly reliable, arriving on time to each walk and took such good care of our pup while we were away. I would definitely recommend her and would book 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 Burke. 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.
