About: I have always had pets. Growing up we had a dog, and cat. Our cat who lived to be 17, was more like a dog-cat. He always had to be held like a baby, sat at the dinner table with us, and needed cuddles. Since then I had a golden retriever/husky mix named Bella who lived to be 10. She was there for both of my daughters coming into this world, and whom they still talk about to this day (with their Bella pillows, and Bella blankets I made them). Now, we have Penny, an almost 4 year old Chihuahua/Terrier mix who is our love! We adopted her when she was 9 months old. She keeps us entertained, and loved! There will never not be a time in my life where I won't have a pet. It's so important for my kids to grow up learning how to love and take care of an animal too. I currently have a full-time job that is work from home. This allows me time to walk my dog, and yours too! It's the breaks in my day that I enjoy it the most! I am a very affectionate, loving pet care taker. I have always spoiled my pets, and others too! The walk is the highlight of my dogs day, so I make sure she gets her sniffs in, and enjoys every second. It's a bonus for me for the exercise! I just enjoy watching her be happy.
“I'm so glad I found Nouf! She was punctual for every walk and kept me in the loop with photo updates. My dog was thrilled to see her again during her second visit. I’ll definitely be booking with Nouf again whenever the need arises.”
“Alexandra is friendly and knowledgeable about dog walking/care and was flexible in taking care of Winston on short notice. Alexandra was timely in her visits, provided full details on her visit including photos. We would recommend Alexandra to others and will use Alexandra in the future. Thanks Alexandra.”
“Samantha was great! Followed directions without issue, and was flexible enough to accommodate my last minute walking need when my regular walker had to take the night off. I appreciate your help tonight!”
About: Lifelong animal love with over 15 years of dog walking and pet sitting experience. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision, and my goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe and care for. I have experience for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, medication, cuddles on the couch, or a simply a calm routine, I'm happy to provide personalized care based on their individual needs. As a healthcare professional, I'm dependable, attentive to detail, and I understand the importance of responsibility, communication and trust. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. Currently working as a full-time x-ray technologist Monday-Friday until 4:30pm and I get back to the area around 5pm. I have two beloved twin sibling Daschunds (Pebbles and Bambam) that turned 8 years old on April 9th of this year. I know firsthand that pets are family. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and providing the peace of mind you deserve while you're away! During each dog walking visit, I do more than just take your dog for a walk. I make sure your pet has fresh water, provide meals or treats if requested, administer medications (if needed and discussed beforehand), clean up any accidents, and give your dog plenty of love, attention and playtime. I'll also keep your home secure by bringing in packages or mail, adjusting lights or blinds if requested, and ensuring doors and gates are locked before I leave. My goal is to keep your fur baby happy, safe, and comfortable by maintaining their normal routine and treating them like one of my own.
About: I love animals like my own children! I have experience with young animals as well as senior animals (mine is now 14 and requires verrrry slow walks) I have my own pet so I take time out of my day to care care of my own. I know it’s super important to walk and give pets the proper attention. I have a 14yo super friendly old woman doggie. I do not have a fenced in yard but we take long walks to get outside.

Welcome to our home. I love to watch dogs taking a nap in our sunroom couch. Our single family home has fenced lawn yard and front walk path way in quiet grassy neighborhoods perfect for walking dogs. Our while neighborhood is very pet friendly environment.
About: Growing up, I always begged for a pet every chance I got. I have so much love, appreciation, and passion for not only pets but for animals as a whole, and this hasn't changed since I was a kid. In my free time I enjoy playing with my pets and watching animal documentaries. In terms of experience, I am PetTech certified, I am working with a local pet sitting business for over a year now, where I do drop-in visits for dogs and cats, as well as walks and house sitting too! I also previously volunteered with a local animal shelter where I worked with mainly cats and kittens, and dogs on occasion. As a volunteer, my responsibilities mostly included transport, playing with the shelter animals, weighing, and checking in/watching. I currently have 2 cats, 1 male and 1 female, that I got as kittens. I have had these cats for about 2 years. In the past, I had a dog for 3 years. My responsibilities with these pets include/included feeding, bathing, playing, walking, cleaning up after, etc. I am not currently working and have reliable transportation. I have a flexible schedule and lots of time to take care of and spend time with your furry friends! I have experience pet sitting in clients' homes before. I am detail oriented and follow the directions left by clients well! I clean up after not only myself but also your furry friends and leave the home as I found it!
About: stays), you could write: I’ve been taking care of dogs for quite a while now. Many of my neighbors and family friends trust me to look after their dogs. I provide in-home drop-in visits and dog walks, making sure dogs are fed, exercised, and well cared for while their owners are away. At this time, I only offer drop-in visits and walks and do not provide overnight care. I am currently working a part time job but as it is my summer break and there isn’t much happening in my day I am mostly free at home I have a huge house so I just let the dogs play around in the basement and if they ever need a friend for company we have 3 other dogs on my street that they can meet and they are very friendly
“Heidi is the BEST! I had no concerns when my dog was left in her hands. Heidi was very reliable and understanding when it came to taking care of my pup. I 100% recommended booking Heidi to care for your pet, you wont be disappointed.”
“I was very nervous leaving my puppy alone after 6 months of furlough. Elmer took the time to get to know her and gives her the attention she needs. I am gone for a large part of the day. When I come home she is happy and the house is in one piece.”

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 Catharpin. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
