“Mike was so friendly when he came to meet our puppy Finn. Finn was so excited while he was visiting. Mike also seemed very knowledgeable about labs and dogs in general. I would absolutely use Mike again.”
“Jenna has been amazing! Our pup Betty absolutely loves her, and Jenna is always sure to take some pictures and let us know of anything important. Before starting our regularly scheduled walks, Jenna was kind enough to come for a drop in and meet Betty ahead of their first walk together. She was so kind and understanding, especially as we just moved in to our new place so recently. Jenna is a natural! We’re so happy we found her, and look forward to many more good walks for our Betty! ❤️”
“I would happily recommend Madison! Communication was excellent, she was prompt, and my dog was very happy to take walks with her. Also, I enjoyed the photos she sent. Thanks, Madison.”
About: Vet tech experience combined with hands-on daycare and grooming work means your pet is in knowledgeable, capable hands. I also have experience working with horses, which has strengthened my confidence & awareness when handling animals. I'm currently working toward a career in dog training and have cared for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs through both professional experience and years of pet sitting. I currently work part-time on Tuesdays & Thursdays (9 AM-3:30 PM), with occasional Fridays until 2:30 PM. I'm available for... - Drop-ins: Mon, Wed, Fri (when not scheduled), & weekends - Dog Walking: Weekdays, after 3:30 PM on Tues & Thur, & weekends. - House sitting (overnight): Weekends I am flexible and happy to accommodate schedules when possible! I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I follow all care instructions closely and pay attention to each pet's individual needs, behavior, and routine. I also have experience bathing dogs and can provide baths if needed, as long as the pet is not stressed, and it can be done safely. I prefer to do a quick meet-and-greet beforehand to ask/answer any questions and to ensure your pet feels comfortable with me prior.
“Mark has been walking Sancho every week since Feb 2024 and it’s been going so well. Sancho is always excited to see Mark. Def book Mark to look after your pup!”
“From the moment we met her, I knew Kristen would be a perfect fit to walk our sweet fur-baby, Hamilton. Given that Hamilton is still a four-month old puppy, my husband & I weren’t willing to leave him in the care of just anyone. Right from the get-go, Kristen was sweet, playful, & affectionate with our sweet boy. Kristen was always immediately responsive to my many questions as a first-time Rover user & left detailed notes/pictures about her walks with Hamilton. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone & everyone! Your dog will love her!!! ~Cynthia & Jay”
About: I’ve grown up in a house filled with dogs and cats my whole life. In the last year, I have turned taking care of animals into a part time gig and am looking to do more of it! I currently work some nights in the evening but usually fill my days with walks and drop ins and am looking to increase the amount of families I help. I promise to be very respectful of your home and take care of your pets the way I would hope someone would take care of mine.
“Marilyn was amazing walking my dog Maverick. She was available at a last minute notice and was very responsive throughout his walk from picking him up to saying goodbye with a summary of how it went. Definitely would recommend”
About: I am a reliable and honest worker. I absolutely love all kinds of animals. I will be there for you, as well as your pet. What sets me apart from others is that I have no preferences! I love all dogs and cats - big, small, young, or old. I don’t mind going out on walks or potty runs. I love to get the exercise! I also don’t mind if you need me to stay the night. If you’re on vacation and need me to be at the house multiple times per day I can even do that. Whatever you need I’ll be sure to provide it. I have a flexible schedule which will be convenient for this job. I am so excited for this opportunity, thanks :) Best, Jaden I work fully remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which makes pet care easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I’m able to take breaks throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feedings, and check-ins, while still keeping up with my work. This flexibility also allows me to accommodate overnight stays or multiple visits when needed. I’m happy to provide care in your home, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m also very flexible with travel and have my own car, so I can easily commute to you for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. While I’m not able to offer regular boarding at my apartment, I’m happy to work with you to find the setup that’s most comfortable and convenient for your pet!
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I have four dogs of my own, where I have helped train them, raise them, and care for them. I have a love for all dogs and understand their individual needs. In addition to my own dogs, I have been dog-sitting through Rover for about 3 years. I love meeting new pets and giving them lots of attention. I am aware that all dogs need a different type of care, whether they're the energetic fun-loving pup - to a lazy little lap dog. I am reliable and professional and will provide you with pictures, updates, or anything you may need to make you feel at ease while I’m with your pup. I have experience with handicapped animals and sick animals and can administer shots or oral medication if needed. I am always available on the weekends, and whenever needed for walks or drop-ins during on the weekdays. I am ready to treat your dogs like my own, and believe that all dogs should be loved equally and cared for. Your best friend will be my best friend! Please consider me with this application and help me, help you!

I have been the owner various pets, including a rabbit that I had for 13 years, a cat for 10 years, a guinea pig and currently have my little Pom for 4 years (she usually stays with the grandma or on our second floor while I board if the owners request a solo boarding).

I am available all day to take care of pets. As long as reasonable time is made to schedule I am willing to accommodate :) Although I do not have a fence yard.

About: I've taken care of family and friends dogs periodically for the past 20 years as well as my own dog(s) throughout the course of my life.

“Last minute booking and he was better than I could have asked! So so so many adorable photos listened to my requests with precision and always made me feel like the best dog mom ever with the best dog ever. I highly recommend using Kevin for all your doggy care needs!!!”
About: I live with and care for two dogs every day, an Olde English Bulldog & a Frenchie, my two lovable shadows. Living with these goofballs means I know brachycephalic breads well, when they've had enough sun, and when the walk needs to slow down. I have experience with senior dogs and IVDD. Feeding, walking, running, cuddling, companionship, I am comfortable well beyond just walks, so home visits and check-ins are right up my alley. I lift weights four times a week, so big, strong, or energetic pups don't faze me. I have been dog walking off Rover for some time in the area, and am now bringing my services to the greater public. I currently have a flexible, open schedule and can accommodate walks (or runs) and visits throughout the day, including short notice requests. Mornings, afternoons, and evenings all work for me, and I am happy to build a consistent routine around your pup's needs. When caring for pets in a clients home, I am respectful of both their space and their pet's routine. I take the time to help pets feel comfortable with me, give them plenty of attention and exercise based on their individual needs, and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe and happy while they are away.

“HIGHLY recommend. Had a last minute trip to Miami and he handled everything professionally and politely. He was great with my dog Turbo and sent great updates and pictures. You can tell he cares for others pets like a member of his own family! Will definitely be having him baby sit my dogs in the future! He even made himself available incase of a delayed flight which was very comforting for my wife and I.”

Scott did a fabulous job walking Cessie. He sussed out the situation quickly, understanding that she might be impulsive, and handled her very well. I found him to be entirely reliable, always arriving exactly when he said he would and keeping me informed throughout the walk. I strongly recommend him as an excellent dog walker.
Natalia is a terrific dog walker, intuitive, patient and enthusiastic. My dog, Cessie, is full of energy and can get distracted by bunnies, squirrels, any little so fter training, she has some modifications. Natalia easily adapted to her routine and Cessie came home happy and despite a long walk, lively and refreshed. I would definitely recommend her as a great dog walker./-

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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.
