“Lindsay was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to take care of our dogs and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She sent detailed updates and lots of pictures, made sure they got all their medications, and kept both their bowls and hearts full. She was so loving and attentive with them, and we’re incredibly grateful. Knowing that our dogs trust and love Lindsay so much, I know that if we ever need a pet sitter in the future, we’ll have someone we can trust completely. We would absolutely love to have Lindsay take care of them again!”
About: Over 20 years of experience of dog walking pet sitting - from puppies to older pups. Currently working towards certification to become a veterinary assistant :) I'm a teacher so I have plenty of time to hang out, play, and walk your pets during the late afternoon and early evenings. During the school year I'm often available on Weekends and holidays. I am currently not hosting pets in my home as I have a grumpy senior dog prone to seizures if overly excited. At your home, I will follow any rules or boundaries that you set in place :)
“Sabrina was amazing! My pup loved her and she was so thoughtful about his heart condition when he was in her care. I really appreciate her time and care. I look forward to her services in the future and I’m sure Legend is too!”
“Sarahbelle has been walking Millie for several months now. She is very punctual and communicative. Millie loves her visits and she makes our busy schedule feel like less of a burden on our sweet pup! Thank you Sarahbelle!”
“We couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She has gone above and beyond to help and support us, always showing such genuine care and compassion for our dog, Milo. When he was unwell, she was incredibly understanding, attentive, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. She has also been wonderfully flexible and accommodating, which has made such a difference. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them as her own. Knowing our dog is in such caring, capable hands gives us complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful for everything she does and feel incredibly lucky to have found her!”
About: I've been working with animals since I was 18, when I began volunteering with my local humane society, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, socializing, and handling animals. I went on to work as a veterinary assistant at an animal clinic/hospital, where I learned more about handling animals and administering medications for cats and dogs. I no longer work at a veterinary office because I'm currently in an online bachelor's degree program that makes a traditional full-time job difficult to manage. But my schooling is incredibly flexible and I love working with animals, so part-time pet care is perfect for me! I have done pet-sitting for cats and dogs in the past, but I am also comfortable working with fish (I had a beloved betta fish in high school). I am definitely open to caring for other animals, but I would need additional instruction to compensate for my inexperience. I have particular experience with special needs animals because my own cat, Birdie, has hind limb paresis. She scoots around instead of walking, wears diapers, and has daily oral medication. "Special needs" encompasses a wide range of conditions, so I won't pretend to know how to care for all disabled animals but my personal experience provides me with the patience and flexibility to learn about the particular needs of your pet. I'm currently in a flexible online degree program that allows me to shape my schedule around my clients. Pet care through rover offers me supplemental income and ensures that I get out of the house regularly! I understand that every animal is different, so I don't have a universal approach to pet-sitting. I believe enrichment is essential to an animal's wellbeing and I incorporate that into my pet care. I make sure to take time to play with pets as well as feed, walk, or clean after them.
“Samyou was amazing, treated my dogs as if it were her dog very prompt my pup feel in love with by the 2 nd visit, I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for professional, loving , courteous care for their pets.”

“Debora did an amazing job caring for our 3 year old golden retriever willow during her walks! She used great judgement and always made sure she had access to fresh water.

Molly is an excellent sitter! She cared for our senior dog for a daytime walk and followed all the instructions we asked of her. She is a great communicator and has a really nice personable vibe to her. You can tell she’s a genuine person. She provided a detailed update with photos. We’ll be using her next time we need doggy services. Thank you, Molly!
Natasha is the best!! She agreed to take on a weeks worth of dog walking on short notice, and even showed up the day before it was supposed to start (on a Sunday) to meet my dog to ensure their time together would go well. Her communication and positive interactions were simply the best!! Recommend Natasha to anyone!!!!
Qianyu is an excellent dog sitter/walker and I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for quality care for their pet-children! She is very punctual, caring, and has excellent communication. I have three very needy dogs who are quite the handful! Qianyu always comes on time, sends pictures and updates of the walks and leaves them happy. I can read my dogs well and can usually tell a good sitter from a not so good one by my dogs' demeanor, and my dogs are always happy with Qianyu - thank you!

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.
