I'd love to meet your pet! my schedule is very flexible. willing to accommodate all needs with proper communication and scheduling. I have reliable transportation for our pets and drive very cautiously. my 3 y/o black labrador, Chase, is an outside only dog now. He is happy and healthy.

“Shanna was really great. I had an extremely last minute booking and she was very accommodating. My dog doesn't warm up to people very easy but she sent me progress pictures while I was out of town and it looked like they did great together. I appreciated the constant contact because I always tend to worry when I am out of town. She was able to stay over night and take him on walks and feed him frequently. I will be using her in the future for my next trips.”

“Cris is an angel of a person, radiating positivity and care! She walked my three dogs every day for nearly two weeks and was absolutely exceptional. Her communication was outstanding—she kept me informed of every detail, ensuring I always knew how my pups were doing. What truly sets her apart is her awareness and caution. She was incredibly mindful of the environment, actively avoiding areas where off-leash dogs were roaming to keep mine safe. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and has the biggest heart. I am astounded by her level of care and attention. She went above and beyond in every way, and I trust her completely with my dogs. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own, look no further. Highly recommend!”

About: I have over 10 years of hands on animal care experience, including 4 years in the veterinary field. I graduated from SUNY Delhi in 2018 as a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT), which allows me to confidently care for dogs with a wide range of needs. I am home full time, so your dog will receive consistent supervision, attention, and care in a calm, structured environment. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I am home full time. This allows me to offer a flexible schedule and provide attentive care throughout the day, including short notice bookings when available. Pets stay in our home on four spacious acres. I am home full-time, so I’m able to provide plenty of supervision, attention, fresh air, and potty breaks throughout the day. Our property is not currently fully fenced, so all dogs are safely leashed with me when outside. We are also in the process of planning a dedicated fenced dog area where visiting pups will eventually be able to enjoy additional outdoor time safely. We have two friendly, social dogs of our own, so visiting pets must be comfortable around other dogs.
“Alison was quick to respond and worked with me well to find a mutually acceptable time to pick up Willowe. Willowe got in some nice long walks. Alison also thought of ways to leave Willowe comfortable when she dropped her off at home”
“Simone was friendly and communicated quickly on a last minute booking. She walked our golden retriever for an hour around our neighborhood and got him very tired, which is exactly what we wanted. She sent a couple of pictures of the walk too. We would definitely call Simone again in the future. 😊”

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.
