“I’m so grateful to Elliot for helping me out in a pinch! He went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was well taken care of. At first, my dog was hesitant and wouldn’t let him get too close, but Elliot was patient and persistent, working to gain his trust without pushing too hard. Before long, my puppy warmed up to him and they had a great time together. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Elliot put in the extra effort to make sure he felt comfortable and cared for. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated dog walker!”
“Maria really helped me out with my two dogs on very short notice. She was responsive and kind. Maria provided several pictures during the walks with realtime updates. I'd definitely trust her again with my dogs!”
“Sonia was so attentive to our little girl!! She came late for us because we went to the Linkin Park concert last minute. I really appreciated her doing that for us! Nala can't wait to spend more time with you today :) Thanks again!!”
“I had the pleasure of hiring Heather for daily drop-in visit's and I honestly can't say enough good things. She is incredibly reliable, kind, and truly cares about my dog like he was hers. Maverick gets so excited every time I leave for work and tell him that Heather will coming to see him—it’s clear to me just how much trust and affection has built up between them in such a short time! Communication is excellent, with regular report card updates and fun photos from their outings. It's such a relief knowing someone so responsible is helping care for my fur baby . If you're looking for someone trustworthy, professional, and genuinely passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Heather!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals and the genuine love behind it. I grew up helping my mom care for our cats and cats in need and got my first dog in second grade, which taught me responsibility early on. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and I treat every animal with the same care and compassion I grew up with. As of right now I’m taking a gap year and working part-time in order to figure out what I want to do. Which means I have plenty of time during the day to play with and keep your pet happy! I’ll care for your pets in your home by following the routine given, keeping yours and their space clean, giving them plenty of walks, love, playtime, and attention, and sending regular updates so you always know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.
About: It is part of my worldview that animals are treated with respect and care. These creatures are intelligent, emotional beings, and I take that seriously. I’m a stay-at-home mom who’s looking to for a few hours of work each week to fill in the financial gap. Rather than sit at a desk job, I’d rather being doing something I enjoy, taking care of animals, than something that feels like an obligation. Each family and their animals have their own different needs and requests. I’ll reliably follow those needs, instructions, schedules, and care. No two pets are the same, and it’s important to me to honor how each family works with their pets.
“Raquel was an outstanding dog walker and lover of our dog while we were away on a longer trip. She gave great updates, communicated well, and even cleaned up parts of our house after our winter dog shedded excessively in the summer! We hope to use her in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Elise is fantastic! She is so reliable and respectful. Her communication when taking care of my pup is always so reassuring! 10/10 would recommend her for any of your pets!”
“Patricia is the genuine thing. She is a GEM. Our Grace loves her. She is professional, on time, friendly and a keeper. She is a wonderful person and a friend now as well. We have a bonus because she is an experienced, veterinarian tech who specializes. We recommend her 100%!”
About: Whether I’m doing drop-ins, daily walks, or overnight stays, I focus on creating a calm and structured environment so every dog feels secure. I communicate clearly and consistently, sending updates, photos, and notes so pet parents always know how their pups are doing. I’m comfortable following detailed care routines, administering medications, and handling unexpected situations with confidence. Your dog will be cared for with the same attention, compassion, and respect I give to my own pets. I work full-time night shift as a nurse, which actually gives me a lot of daytime flexibility. I’m available most weekdays in the afternoon and evening, as well as many weekends, to care for your pets. My schedule allows me to stop by regularly for walks, check-ins, or playtime, and I’m very reliable with communication and timing. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet I care for. I follow your instructions closely, keep a clean space, and pay attention to your pet’s behavior and needs. Whether your pet prefers cuddles, quiet time, or active play, I match their energy to help them feel at home. I’m confident handling routine and ensuring your pet is always secure and well-supervised.
“I recently moved here from PA with my dog (Atlas). New state, new job and I really needed a pet sitter while I was at work. I won't lie - I was scared to trust someone with my fur baby. After the first week of walks I could tell Atlas really enjoyed being around Crissy and that genuinely made me at ease. Crissy is very reliable, communicates well, and most importantly is attentive when caring for my Atlas. She goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of my fur baby. One instance was when I misplaced his raincoat and Crissy came to the rescue- she let him borrow a raincoat and made sure he didn't get soaked. No words can describe my gratitude. I genuinely believe Crissy is top-tier and deserves all the praise!!! Atlas and I highly recommend :)”
About: I'm new to Rover, but not new to caring for fur babies! I've had pets my whole life, so loving on pups & kitties comes naturally to me. I enjoy taking walks with dogs and giving cats all the cozy attention they'll allow, whether that's playtime or a comfy spot to curl up. I'm happy to email or text pics of your fur baby so you can relax and have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. Your pet will get plenty of love, care, and attention while you're away! I work from home and have a super flexible schedule, so pet care fits right into my day! I'm only a few minutes away, which gives you peace of mind knowing I can pop in for walks, drop-ins, or attention when your fur baby needs it. I'm not a certified vet, but I have experience giving pets oral medication safely. When we're out on neighborhood walks, I always keep dogs on leash to make sure they're safe and secure. Your pet's well-being and worry-free environment are my top priorities!
“Catherine did not hesitate to walk my dog when I needed someone last minute! She was caring and listened to my requests when it came to my pup! Will definitely be rebooking her for the future!”
About: A friendly, responsible couple who treats every pet like family. We have 6 years of experience with puppies and small dogs. Our family has three dogs and two cats, and we took care of all of them since they were born. We make sure our furry friends have all the care and affection they need. My husband and I have flexible jobs. We can accommodate our time with yours with no issues. We just need a few days in advance for the bookings. We take care of them, and we protect them as if they were our pets. We have a lot of patience and affection for those furry family members of yours.
“Zana is an incredible pet sitter/walker who we’ve used multiple times. Our dog loves when she comes over and she sends many updates and pictures. We look forward to using her in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, both drop in and overnight visits, for two years now. I’ve dealt with small and large dogs and know how to handle them. I’ve grown up with multiple dogs in one house and know the different needs each dog requires! I’m currently a student so I am busy most week days but can walk morning and evenings Monday-Wednesday. I can dog sit, extra visits, and last minute appointments Thursday-Sunday! Any rules and information I need are required before I enter the home. And for non emergency appointments a meeting with the dog and you present is preferred.

“Amazing service and a friendly personality. I reached out to Adriana because I had a last minute cancellation. She was able to accept my request and was in my house in 10 minutes. She had a nice walk with my dog. She provided me with pictures and videos of their walk. Adriana even spent extra time with my dog. I honestly want message anyone else but her. Highly recommended”
Carney dog parents share their Rover experiences
Carrie was great! Prompt in replying and caring for our dogs, especially without having had a meet and greet beforehand. Carrie was through and handled our detailed instructions with care! We felt safe and happy having her care for our 6-month old puppy and our older dog and we’d happily book with her again.
Jennifer was wonderful! She walked my Boxer while I was away for 3 days and I know she was well taken care of. She kept me updated each day with the report card and took lots of pictures. It is never easy leaving your fur baby, but I was at peace seeing how happy my dog was on her walks. I will absolutely continue to ask Jennifer to take care of my dog for any future needs.
Janelle, Joanna and Gwendolyn walk my mom’s dog every Saturday and Sunday. I love that the three of them team together to ensure one is always available. We LOVE them. My mom has granted them granddaughter status and I love them too. They love our dog, Bela and Bela is so excited when she sees them. I highly encourage anyone who is looking for someone reliable and sweet with both animals and people to consider this wonderful team. I can’t recommend them enough.

Laura always takes great care of our boxer, Remi, and he always has a fun time when she comes for a walk with him! She is very communicative, always leaving a very detailed note to say how the walk went and how Remi behaved. She provides lots of great pictures as well! Laura is very responsive and flexible when booking. Remi is always happy to see her!
