“Olivia is so good with our dog Remi! She’s friendly and understanding, very flexible with scheduling and helpful! We trust her completely with our fur baby. We highly recommend her!”


About: Hello! I have taken care of many different types of animals, all shapes and sizes ever since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish! Whether it’s just one fur baby, or even up to six at a time, I can do it! I love animals and have a cat and four fish of my own—I have had a few dogs in the past as well! I would love to get to know your pets and take care of them if you need help! :) I am typically free most week days and weekends anytime to walk, feed, or play with pets. Mondays and Wednesdays I am more busy in the morning time due to classes, however I can still do drop-ins before and after on those days as well! For my current pets I keep my fish in a 50 gallon tank since they are smaller, but love the space. For my cat, Squash, she stays in my main unit with me free to roam around and cuddle with me whenever she likes. I do not offer boarding services since my complex only allows a certain amount of pets at a time.
About: i have had pets since i was essentially born. i have 4.5 years working in an emergency veterinary hospital, and i currently work in cat rescue. i believe i am well equipped to recognize a medical emergency in cats & dogs. i also have experience with rabbits, fish, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, and select reptiles. i am currently unemployed, and i am able to care for your pet during the day through the week, and overnight through the weekend! i do have a 1 year old, so overnight stays during the week would not be an option for us. i will treat your babies as if they are my own while they stay in the comfort of their home. i am unable to board in my apartment, but i am open to pet sitting at your residence.
“Madison was great! She was able to accommodate a same-day request, which I really appreciated. She took Annika on an adventure to the park, and Annika came home completely pooped. It was clear she had a great time. I would definitely book with Madison again!”

About: I am a reliable provider that responds quickly, communicates proactively, and is compassionate to both the pet and owner. As a student, I am looking for an excuse to get away from my desk and release both myself and your pets of our energy! (También sirvo a la comunidad hispanohablante) As a masters student, I am very flexible with my schedule as my work is mostly computer based and outside the classroom. I do not have classes Monday-Wednesday so I am free all day for multiple visits/walks. I will also be free on available weekends for play dates or drop ins when you want to take that well needed vacation! I believe that pet ownership is a great responsibility, and I am here to help you with it. Each animals need is unique, and I cater my services to make sure everyone leaves happy and satisfied!

About: I have lived with pets my entire life, I have a 5 year old dog currently. Additionally, I’ve pet sat for friends and family frequently when they leave for trips and used to help my grandmother foster kittens! I’m currently a senior at Clemson with a light schedule so I can drop by before/after classes with ease! I have time in the mornings and afternoons for walks and am available most days for pet sitting! I have a very active dog and am used to playing or walking outside for enrichment time. I grew up around cats and dogs and am very fond of both! Whether you need someone to play with them or just keep them company I would love to meet your fur baby.
About: I have cared for mostly dogs since I was around 8 years old and my family got my dog. I have been relied on by family, neighbors, and others in my community at home to take care of their pets and give them all they need for as long as I can remember! I am currently enrolled in college, so I do have classes every weekday, but I would love to help with your pets whenever I am not in class! Currently, I live in a dorm, so I do not have any pets and I would not be able to keep your fur babies with me; however, I will love and care for them in your home!
About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. I’m currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times I’m out of town. Before letting pets out in fenced areas I double check gates are closed and latched before letting out. For any pets that are walked I ensure that they are leashed before heading out the door and do not take the leash off until inside with the door closed. I have an escape artist of myself at home so I know what to look for. I can easily place your pet in a crate before leaving if that is necessary.
About: Bringing happiness to all animals is something that is very important to me because of the love they constantly give us. With multiple years of experience, I am able to make sure your furry friends are well taken care of. Keeping your pets healthy and happy is the most important thing to me. I focus on providing all pets with someone who makes them feel safe and loved while their family is not with them. At the moment I am in between jobs after working for Clemson University for 4 years. I am currently searching for a part-time job I can pair with Rover to keep my schedule as open as possible. I’m very flexible with the care I provide. Every pet has their own routine and habits. I tend to follow any instructions given to take proper care of your pets. In my own home I have a roommate who love animals just as much as me so there will be plenty of pets! We have a dog park nearby I can utilize or a walking path if your pet is a little more introverted.
About: I have owned animals my entire life and currently care for two dogs and a cat. I am experienced in providing care for both puppies and senior pets, including administering medicine, managing walks, and organizing play dates and outings. My passion for animals drives my commitment to ensuring their well-being, happiness and making sure their parents can rest easy when they are away. I have owned animals of all kinds all my life. Currently, I run a non-profit kitten rescue. This allows gives me the experience needed to care for all kinds pets and behaviors. Unable to care for other pets in my home due to running a rescue out of my home. Please inquire if you would like to adopt!
About: I have always grown up with pets: 3 dogs, 1 cat, and a beared dragon. I have helped train a puppy, cared for a dying senior dog, and everything in between. I have experience with pets who have high energy, anxiety, dietary needs, and physical disabilities. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to pet sit, drop in, provide over night care, and walk their dogs. I have worked at a dog groomer for over 2 years, which has given me experience with a wide variety of animals and their temperaments. I’m a full time student at Clemson University who has most afternoons/ evenings and weekend free to care for your pets! I am studying wildlife conservation so spending time with animals is one of my favorite things to do! Following instructions, I can care for your pet however you direct me to. I am comfortable taking your dog for walks/ hikes, playing indoors and outdoors, dosing medications, keeping up with training, and providing all the love and comfort your pet will need while you are away!

About: I began working at Radnor Veterinary Hospital as a Boarding Attendant, where I cared for a variety of animals, primarily dogs, and was responsible for feeding, walking, medicating, and monitoring their daily needs. I then worked as a Veterinary Assistant at the Exotic and Small Animal Hospital of PA, where I gained extensive hands-on experience with both small animals and exotic pets. I assisted with appointments, treatments, medications, laboratory work, and monitoring patients before, during, and after procedures. This experience taught me how to recognize changes in an animal’s behavior and health, safely handle animals, and provide attentive care for pets with different needs. I am currently a pre-veterinary student at Clemson University pursuing my passion for becoming a veterinarian. I especially enjoy caring for rabbits and dogs, but honestly just love being around animals. I have classes regularly; however, in the afternoon and later evenings, I am usually free almost every day! I try to be really flexible; however, school does create some constraints. I make sure to locate the nearest vet in case of an emergency, keep a close eye on your pet during the whole time, and record if I see anything unusual.
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I started petsitting at 13 and have experience with puppies, seniors, and administering medications. I have experience working as a veterinary assistant as well! I am a sophomore at Clemson University, and I’m majoring in Animal and Veterinary Science! I’m currently a full time student at Clemson with extra time in the afternoons and weekends for walking or taking care of your fur babies! I am very responsible when it comes to pet care, especially other peoples pets. I can ensure that I will take good care of your pets. I love to send lots of pictures daily so that you know your pet is safe and happy!
“Jessi is such a lovely lady who makes my mind and heart at ease when my beloved MazeyJo is with her. Every time she walks my girl while I am at work, I receive the best smiley doggy photos, a wonderful Rover Card update and could not be more pleased with her services. When her profile says "Your pets new BFF", she isn't kidding. Thank you so much, Jessi.”
About: I've always grown up around cats and dogs, but when I moved to Minnesota I don't get to be around pets as often, so I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and your dog. I am very active and enjoy jogging as well. I work full time as a Real Estate Agent but try to keep my schedule flexible. My aunt is a vet so I would often go into her clinic and visit the animals there, I would also take my family member's dogs for walks all the time. Animals bring joy to my life and I know that having a dog in the city can be difficult, that's why I am here to help as much as I can to take your dog for a walk! I work from home so I can make just about anytime work before 6pm that is! Let me work around your s ch exile to make sure your pet gets the care it needs! Every pet is different, and I feel that matching their energy is very important. First I get their trust and show that I am a safe and kind person before the fun begins!

Lauren M. had great communication with me and excellent rapport with our energetic 2+ year old Doodles. She gave them a great fun and safe walk around the neighborhood, being mindful of the other dogs in our neighborhood. Our dogs are SO VERY excited to see her and I know it is because they are loved on and focused on during their playtime and walks together! We can’t wait to have her dog walk, check in or dog sit for us again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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 Central. 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 Central.

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 Central. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
