“Miranda was wonderful. We hired her for 2 walks and she took different paths each time and provided thorough reports and pictures. She went above and beyond to help our dog with learning not to pull on the leash. We will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“Jennifer is wonderful! She has been great with our dog! She is friendly, communicates very well, is on time, and is happy to follow our dog's lead (which is what we like first our dog). So happy we found her to help with our furry kid!”
“Kylie has walked our pup four times over the past two weeks. She is professional, reliable, and has a warm, easygoing demeanor. Our dog took to her right away, which gave us immediate peace of mind. We’re looking forward to having Kylie take care of her full-time while we’re on vacation this summer—it’s reassuring to know she’ll be in such good hands.”
“She’s been an amazing dog walker for us! My dog absolutely loves her—she’s incredibly friendly, patient, and gentle, which made a huge difference right away. In just a couple of days, he’s already grown to trust her, and there is improvement in his walks (calmer and more confident). Great communication and truly caring. Highly recommend!”
“Jenn did great with our dog Coconut. Even though our dog has some anxiety issues Jenn was patient and kind. We will definitely come back for future dog sitting and walking needs. Thanks so much!”
“My mother was dog sitting while we went out of town. She was unable to walk Flora (our dog) due to medical issues. Hope was a great help to my Mother. She arrived on time. Communicated well with my mother. Walked and exercised Flora. We will use Hope again next time we travel.”
About: I have previously owned a dog and have pet sat/walked for many families in my neighborhood throughout my life. I love taking pups on walks and giving them lots of loving! I am a teacher and work in the elementary school from 8:15-4:00. But if your furry friend can be alone for those hours I am happy to do walks in the morning and evenings. Or any other care your pet may need while not at work. Holiday breaks are my largest availability! I have a fenced yard and locked home doors. I live in a safe neighborhood with lots of families. It is a suburban neighbors with lots of parks.
“Barbara did a fantastic job walking our dig when we could not. She was on time, adapted to our complicated schedule and was very caring towards our dog. We would definitely recommend her.”
“Jennifer and her daughter give my little Ripley great care. I feel like my girl is always so happy when I get home and I have the piece of mind that she was able to relieve herself and get loving and treats when I have to work longer days. Jennifer always leaves a nice rover card and cute pics when she leaves. So glad I found her!”
About: A lover of all animals, I have extensive experience with caring for a wide range of pets. Growing up, I have been an owner of small mammals, cats, dogs, and birds and am closely familiar with their care needs. Through internships in animal husbandry and rehabilitation, I have gained thorough experience in introductory veterinary care techniques. Highlighted skills: - Designing enrichment activities - Exotic pet care - Senior pet care - Administering medications - Wound care/ post-op recovery I am between jobs and preparing to go to graduate school and would love to spend my extra time caring for your furry friends. I have wide availability and a desire to be flexible to whatever pet care needs you have! While caring for your pets, I will always prioritize their safety. I have trained to be observant of any possible risks to your pet and remove them when possible. I will diligently ensure that they remain in appropriate areas of your home and never have access to unsafe foods/objects. I care for every animal as if they are my own.
“Michael is punctual, a great communicator, and it’s obvious he loves animals. Meeko took to him right away and looked forward to his walks. He would fall asleep before Michael could pull away in his car! I HIGHLY recommend Michael and will definitely reach again should the need arise.”
“Sommer does an incredible job with my little nuggets! She's most likely a direct descendant of Dr. Doolittle, or maybe she just wears bacon flavored socks? Regardless, my pups were pulled in like a tractor beam. Her incredible attention to detail and timeliness leads me to believe that she has trained in the fine art of handcrafting high end Swiss timepieces. Do yourself and your doggies a favor and hire her ASAP! She's amazing! Like, really amazing!”
“Angela is so kind and clearly loves dogs. She took my hounds out for a walk, which can be difficult as we've not done the best leash training and they lose their minds when they see it's walk time. But Angela took them for a little extra time to work off that energy and when they returned my boy was prancing and tired and even my young hound was calm and satisfied and klonked out afterwards. Looking forward to more walks with Angela.”
“Emily is amazing! She has become our regular dog walker for our reacue pup Yoshi. Because he is a rescue, he came to us very sick. She took his kennel cough on in stride and without my asking she offered to confirm for me that he was passing worms in his stool! Seriously, that is above and beyond!!! I feel as though she cares for him as much as I do - letting me know when his behavior is off and alerting me to his needs. She takes great pictures and communicates well. I was skeptical about giving my house key to someone I didnt know - she set me at ease at our meet and greet and was tje best decision we made after taling Yoshi home. Hire her! She is our go to for midday walks.”

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 Cathcart. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Cathcart.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cathcart. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
