“Our doggie loves his walks with Sarah! He recognizes her car, and actually watches for her when he thinks the time is right. She's punctual and friendly, and an obvious dog lover.”

About: I've loved all sorts of animals since I can remember. I was the girl who brought stray dogs and cats home to be loved and cared for. I currently have a senior chihuahua and a orange cat called Keiko. I've always had dogs and cats while raising my kids, big and small. At this time, I am not working outside of the home. I would like to make petsitting, dog walking, animal care, my fulltime job. I volunteer once a week for two hours for furry friends. I also dog walk for one senior who has two dachschunds. I have a fenced yard. I make sure they always have water and excercise. I try to be as attentive to their needs as possible.
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, safe environment. I’m patient, attentive to routines, and comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need extra reassurance. I communicate clearly with owners and make sure pets get plenty of love, exercise, and consistency while you’re away. I am also able to take care of farm animals. I have experience with horses, goats and chickens. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins so each pet gets consistent attention. I’m reliable with routines and enjoy making pets a regular, important part of my day. I provide a safe, loving environment whether I’m in your home or mine. Pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and rest according to their routines. I follow any instructions carefully, keep spaces clean, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I had such a great experience with rover when I was on vacation I decided to sign up! I have always had a pet in my home and I know how important it is to have a responsible pet sitter to care for them. I can house sit, watch pets in my home, do drop in visits you name it. If you have a special request just ask! I have a spoiled 9 lb chiweenie name Bo. I live in a house with a yard in the country. I’m a teacher so I work Monday through Friday and have the normal school breaks like Christmas and summer. We would love to care for you babies! Let me know if you have questions. Sara, Billie, JJ & Mr. Bojangles
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since I was about 4, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. With 35+ years of experience, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. From Chihuahuas and Yorkies to Pit Bulls and Labs, I’m used to them all! I’m happy to go on walks, play, or just keep your pet company and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and always focus on keeping them happy and well cared for. I currently work at a school, so my schedule opens after 3:30pm M-Th and after 1:00pm on Fridays. I’m also available most weekends I’m happy to play with your pet indoors or out, take them for walks, or just check in and keep them company! Whatever your pet needs, I’m available to provide to keep them safe and happy.
About: I have always been a lover of animals and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I have previously worked as a Licensed Veterinary Technician for 5 years, in both small and large animal practices. I have also had many of my own animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, donkeys and alpacas. Animals have always been a central part of my life. Due to my previous work as a licensed vet tech I am comfortable with administering medications or handling special care your animal may need. I have experience in caring for animals of all ages, including senior animals. Thank you for your time, I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I am available to do most early mornings, afternoons, as well as evenings. I have been pet sitting off and on for the past 15 years. I try my best to match the routine your pets are accustomed to while they are in my care. I am also a very detail oriented person and make sure to keep things neat during my visits.
“Vivian was so great with our border collie. She has a past injury to her trachea so walking can be difficult for her, she was so patient with her and took her time. I definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small since I was little. Friends and family have relied on me to walk feed and stay in home with their pets. I’m currently a casual Longshormen, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available weekdays anytime and weekends if needed. I have a big yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate or play pen your dog if needed!
About: I house and pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors throughout college. I grew up with small dogs (chihuahuas, dachshunds), indoor and outdoor cats, and fish. I’ve house sat both small and big dogs (golden retrievers, huskies, chihuahuas) and cats. I have experience in caring for senior dogs (ex. medication, helping them up and down stairs, etc). I also have experience in caring for anxious dogs. My schedule is flexible so I am able to care for pets that may need more attention than typical. I travel often so I don’t get to be with my own pets as often as I’d like so pet sitting gives me a way to still be around and connect with animals. I am very attentive and adaptable. Every animal is different and requires unique care depending on their personality. Some may need more attention while others are independent, I try to see this and meet each pet where they are comfortable. If I’m pet sitting in someone’s home I try to fit into their pets routine as much as possible, prioritizing the pets comfort. If there are any concerns at all, changes in behavior, etc I will contact the client asap.
About: I have lived with both cats and dogs since I could walk. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with many pets since I was 8 years old. I have experience in caring for senior animals, herding dogs, and puppies/kittens. I also independently trained my family's border collie on things like recall and other basic commands. I am available 24/7 to cat or dog sit, walk your dogs, or play with your pets while you can't be with them. I personally own 6 pets (4 cats and 2 dogs) who I take care of with the help of my family. I love to spend time cuddling, playing, and offering enrichment to all pets when I am with them. This may look like playing with toys, taking dogs for walks, working on basic commands, or just quality time.
About: I have always had a dog since I was a kid, when I was a teenager I used to walk dogs around my neighborhood. I also volunteered for an animal rescue. Now, I work for an animal urgent care and have experience with both dogs and cats, as well as own my own dog and cat. I'm currently working full time, so for boarding your pet may be alone while I'm at work unless they are kennel trained they can go to work with me. I will be taking them on walks before and after work. I work 10 hour shifts Monday through Thursday. I have one dog who is young and loves to play all day! I can kennel your pet if needed, as well as my own. I have fenced land for the dogs to run and play.
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, including currently owning a German Shepherd. I am comfortable taking care of dogs and cats of all ages and giving medication if needed. I am a teacher on summer break so I generally have a pretty open schedule to spend lots of time with your pet. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, or to come stay with your pet. Due to my own dog, I cannot currently host any pets in my own home. I am happy to come stay with your pet or drop-in as needed. I am committed to following your pets normal routines and any specific directions to keep your pet as safe and comfortable as possible.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet sitter who understands that every dog has unique needs, energy levels, and routines, and I take that seriously. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs since my teens, with experience across small and large breeds, senior dogs, and pets who require medication. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with more complex needs, including epilepsy, and I prioritize calm, attentive handling to keep them safe and supported. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” dogs, I focus on structured, engaging care that helps them feel balanced and happy while you’re away, whether its walks tailored to their energy level, mental enrichment and engagement during visits, consistent routines to support behavior, or lots of affection and attention. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so I’m happy to include longer walks, hikes, or more engaging outings if that’s something your dog enjoys. I can also do dog park visits if requested. Since I work a full time job from home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable, consistent care throughout the day. I can also send regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel completely at ease. I treat every pet like my own (I have 3 dogs!), with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. I’d love to connect and see if I'd be a good fit for you and your pet! *Starting June 2026, for any house sitting requests I will be unable to stay over in the clients home. I am able to house sit any time during the day and stay with your pet as long or as little as needed, however, if you need me more than one day at a time, I will leave your place at night around 10pm and return in the morning around 630-7am.* I work a full time job from home, so I am willing and able to give your pet the attention it needs throughout the day. I am used to taking care of pets so following a routine comes easy for me. My work schedule is flexible, making it easy for me to adapt to whatever schedule you may need for your pet. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent experience for every pet. In your home, I follow all care instructions closely, so your pet stays comfortable and on their normal schedule. I stay aware on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and adjust care based on your dog’s energy level, temperament, and any medical needs. I also keep your home clean and secure so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Today was more of a meet and greet with my senior dog. Jack’s got some behavioral issues and isn’t the best with new people. Lyla was great. She had a very calming energy. Jack warmed up to her and was able to settle down and relax in her presence.”
About: I've grown up around all different kinds of animals my whole life. From birds and geckos to dogs and cats, I've always been fascinated by all their different personalities and unique biological aspects. The past year I've began dog-sitting on and off and I've always made sure to take care of all their needs no matter how specific or general. I make sure to prioritize that they're properly taken care of and feel safe and comfortable around me. With my interest in biology I also appreciate them from a scientific perspective and try to apply what I've learnt in school about animal biology and behavior whenever needed. I'm currently off of school for the summer and have a pretty free schedule. There's certain things I also prioritize doing like meeting with communities I'm apart of, but I'm still able to free up my schedule whenever I'm needed elsewhere. During the school months my schedule is a bit more strict around the afternoons but I'm still willing to work on weekdays if it lines up with my schedule. Currently I'm self employed too so I'm able to do my other job on my own time which is very flexible. I currently take care of my cat and 3 dogs which are all properly fed twice a day. I like to play with them whenever they're up for it and I even take my cat for walks everyday since he loves being outside. I'll always respect whatever your schedule/routine is for your animals and make sure they're well fed and happy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Charter Oak
Rylee is fantastic. I can’t recommend Rylee highly enough. She walked my dog, and he absolutely lights up when he sees her — tail wagging, full-body wiggles, the whole package. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and dogs pick up on that instantly. Rylee is reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile. She paid close attention to his needs and quirks, and treated him like her own. It’s one thing to have a dog walker — it’s another to have someone you trust completely with your four-legged family member. That’s Rylee. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, professional, and genuinely exceptional at what she does, look no further. I was lucky to meet her, and anyone who hires her will be too.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 6,066 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Charter Oak. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Charter Oak. 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 Charter Oak.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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 Charter Oak. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
