“Elena is always on time and treats my pup with affection and kindness. Elena is someone I can trust who goes the extra mile each time. Thank you to a rover and Elena for making the whole experience wonderful.”
About: You can rest assured your furry friend will be in capable hands! I’ve cared for two dogs of my own—one since puppy age to old age, and I currently have a 2yr old pup. I enjoy training dogs/believe this is a great way for bonding. I also enjoy being active and playing or taking dogs on walks. I work full time Monday through Friday, therefore weekends are the best if your dog requires round the clock care. If your dog just needs a morning walk and attention in the evening after I am off work, then I can look after them any day of the week. Personally, I like to keep dogs to their daily routine if possible. I do have a 2 year old dog who is very playful and loves to make new friends. Your furry friend would be coming along on our morning and evening walks and a part of before bed playtime!
“RJ took great care of Remy on his walk. He’s communicative, friendly, and transparent about everything. It’s my first time using Rover and it can be stressful finding someone to trust your fur baby with but I instantly felt comfortable with RJ and most importantly Remy did. He sent photos and videos throughout the walk which I loved.”
About: I take care of more than just dogs and cats. Any guinea pigs, rabbits and birds are welcome too! There is a second story to the house for smaller animals like the above and for cats. Downstairs and the backyard is for boarding dogs. I can care for all sizes of dogs! Fulfilling pet care services for pet parents is currently my full-time job! I offer: dog walks; drop in services for feeding & other petcare needs; sitting in your home; boarding in my home upon scheduling. I have 2 locations to board dogs, both locations are within a mile of one another. I try to make it as homely for the pet as possible. If they would like to follow me around the house that is acceptable if they are potty trained. I garden in the backyard and they are more than welcome to join me outside! Many potty breaks for the puppers! Cats will stay on the second floor along with any small (non-K9) pets.
“My dog Chewie loves Lydia for her walk. She’s reliable, communicative, and on-time (sometimes early even). Gives updates on how the walk goes, even with pictures. 10/10 would recommend Lydia for dog walking.”
“Alex is solid. He had his hands full for 5 days with our two fur babies, a chow and a pit, and he delivered. No easy task considering how hard our pit pulls on walks. Great communication and no worries. I strongly recommend Alex and would definitely hire again. Thanks Alex!”
About: Hello! I’m Olivia. I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with family dogs starting when I was in kindergarten. In the summer 2023, I adopted my own cat, which made me appreciate even more how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. I work part-time and am a college student, however I can always make time for lovely animals! Even with a busier schedule, I am still able to: * Overnight pet and house sit * Walk your dogs * Daily drop-in visits/check-ins * Keep up with feeding routines and fresh water * Litter box cleaning and basic cleanup * Give lots of attention, playtime, and companionship I am willing to discuss and bargain on prices, and we can discuss my availability further as well! Don’t be shy to message and let me know what you’re looking for. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I try to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to what they need. I also know how important communication is for pet parents, so I’m always happy to send updates and photos while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!
“Alex is great with both our dogs but especially the bouncy Boxer, Buster! He respects my time by being punctual or messaging me when he’s running late. Thank you, Alex and Rover.com”
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows, goats, chickens, cats, and dogs. This evoked in me a deep passion for animals, but especially dogs. My current occupation is nannying and I have been doing so for 10 years. I have also worked as a petsitter when the occasion arises. I love both of these jobs and this is the reason for deciding to sign up for this app. The way that I would describe myself is: responsible, caring, calm, sensitive, trustworthy, and reliable. I can easily create a connection with children and dogs alike, which makes them more comfortable spending their time with me. I feel comfortable sitting dogs of all sizes. I will genuinely love your pet and will always make sure to respond to his/her needs. Thank you for reading! Caring for pets is something I naturally build into my day. I make time for regular walks, feeding, play, and attention, and I enjoy creating a consistent routine that helps pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, play, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, making sure they’re comfortable and safe at all times. In clients’ homes, I respect their space, keep everything tidy, and follow all instructions carefully. I also communicate consistently with updates, photos, and any important observations.
About: All my life I’ve had animals. I have a cat and a dog. Animals are not just pets. They are family, they are emotional support, they are therapy and unconditional love. The only concern you should have is that I will fall in love with your furry baby. As of right now I’m off work. I work in education so I take summers off. I am open to work but would prefer consistency. I have a fenced back yard and a park around my house so enough space for walks. I have a Shiba Inu so expect long walks
About: My specialty and what I excel at is taking care of sick pets. I am able to give cats oral medication and subcutaneous fluid treatments and give oral medication to dogs as well. I started off pet sitting for dogs 7 years ago but have recently started watching more dogs. I am able to take dogs for walks, feed, give oral medication, & play with them. If your dog needs medication from a shot, I am able to learn that as well. I have a certificate of completion from Fear Free Shelters, which teaches techniques to help elevate stress in cats and dogs at shelters. This training has also come in handy with scared house pets. I also volunteer at a cat rescue and have 2 rescue cats of my own. (Half Pint and Nesta). I am available to feed ferals cats at a discounted rate, so your ferals can eat while you're away. I treat everyone’s pets like I want my pets to be treated with kindness, love, & playtime. I look forward to being your Whisker Watcher. I do have a full-time job, but I am able to do drop ins before and after work. On Thursday's and Friday's, I am also able to do drop ins on my lunch hour, as I work from home. I treat everyone’s pet the way I want my pets to be treated, with patience, kindness, love, & playtime. I follow directions well and appreciate as much information as I can get about your pet.
“Mila walked Kiki on such short notice and was extremely professional during our meet and greet! Kiki is very excitable with new people and it was nice to see her calm and relaxed during a first meeting :) we look forward to future walks and dog sitting!”
“Jenna has been wonderful walking our senior dog Atlas. Atlas is always so excited to see her and we really appreciate how she caters the walks to how our pup is feeling that day. We can’t recommend her enough :)”
“Chico loves Rhyanna so much he ran towards her upon meeting her. Shes very reliable in fact coming in earlier than expected and taking Chico even on last minute notice. Definitely will have her again when needed!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 18. I also helped my grandparents deliver , and give immunizations to new dog litters. I also had to help train them prior to them being sent to their new homes. I have dog sit seniors dogs and puppies. I have a huge trail behind my house for some outdoor play and walking and a downstairs balcony in my townhome as well. I own 3 cats as well! Have experience with cat medication , and care . I’m currently available weekend and holidays! I am an Animal Vivarium Manager and can work pet care mostly during those times. However if a week day is needed I can definitely fit that in and work my schedule around it :) I have a fenced patio for playing and a huge hiking trail behind my house with two parks. My current cars are indoor cars but I also let them play on the balcony from time to time for fresh air and outside play.
“Alexis has been extremely dependable when we need someone to take Mochi out. She goes the extra mile to meet her needs (whether it's a treat or a little bit of play) We know Mochi is in good hands whenever Alexis stops by!”
About: Hi, I'm Jacob! I'm a 22-year-old college student and former collegiate soccer player with a passion for dogs. I have two dogs of my own and helped raise and train my Bernedoodle from puppyhood, giving me plenty of hands-on experience with puppies and dogs of all ages. I also assist my girlfriend, an active Rover dog walker, on many of her walks and pet care visits. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, playtime, or extra attention, I'll treat them like they're my own and make sure they receive safe, reliable, and loving care. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. Between caring for my own dogs and assisting with Rover walks and visits, pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra attention, I'm committed to making sure they get the care and exercise they need. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and have personally trained my Bernedoodle since puppyhood, giving me a strong understanding of dog behavior and routines. I follow all owner instructions carefully, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether in their home or on a walk.
“Justin was great with my Belgian Malinois, Peanut. He arrived on time, was very patient, and listened carefully to all instructions. I appreciated how attentive and calm he was during the walk. Peanut seemed comfortable with him right away. Would definitely book again! In fact, I'm booking him again right now.”

Desiree’ was absolutely amazing. My Belgian Malinois is a high energy and aggressive breed. Desiree’ demonstrated great poise and assertiveness when walking and visiting Tre while I was out of the country. Tre grew a close relationship with her fairly quicker than his past dog walkers. 10/10 highly recommend
I had such a great experience with her walking my dog! She walked my puppy three times a week for several months, and it made such a difference, especially since my dog is very energetic. She was always incredibly reliable, kept me updated, and sent lots of photos, which I really appreciated. She’s also super flexible with her schedule, which made everything so easy. Overall, she’s been so kind, communicative, and wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
Jenna was an amazing dog walker for my dog, Oscar. She was incredibly gentle, welcoming, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. Oscar absolutely had a blast on his walks with her and always came back happy and relaxed. I’d highly recommend Jenna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pup!
Nicole is hands-down the best dog walker we’ve ever had for Rony and Riley. Her communication is consistently excellent, giving us total peace of mind while we’re away from home. It is so clear that she truly loves animals and isn't just doing this for a paycheck; she treats our pups like they are her own. We couldn’t ask for a more trustworthy or caring person to look after our furry family members. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care!
Extremely patient and kind with my very reactive bully. Was attentive to surroundings during our walk and always looking for the best path to navigate Echo around and away from other dogs. She is now (finally) wiped out and sleeping on the couch after a mile and a half walk on the trails.
