About: I’m a mom of 3 cats ever since I was 20. I learned how to take care of them by their reactions. I also have experience taking care of ill cats. I’m a freelancer work during the day. I’m free before 10am and after 3pm on weekdays. But schedule can change if needed. Weekends are always welcome. I will be very respectful to clients’ properties. And I will record myself the time I’m in the room with their beloved friends. Definitely respect the pets too.
“Tracy was so wonderful with our dog, Lola. She was great with communication. She arrived on time for each walk and sent photos /videos to me each time. I felt so relieved that Lola was in such caring hands. I would highly recommend Tracy and will use her again when I need a dog walker. Thank you!”
“Melissa was wonderful! She has such a strong, calm leader energy with my two German Shepherds — exactly what they need to respect and trust someone new. She also communicates really well, always letting me know when she’s home and how they’re doing. Thank you, Melissa ♡”
“I highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter/walker! I can tell that she loves dogs and has a lot of experience with them. She was great with my dog Bobo and I would not hesitate to use her services again.”
“I rebooked Haowen after a wonderful first experience with him, and I will continue to book with him when he is available! He did a wonderful job and my pup loves him.”
“Amazing, very helpful and super friendly! Susan was available to help me in short notice and responded very quickly, she really helped me out when I was in a bind. She even sent me some awesome pictures of my dog while on walks with updates along the way! Extremely trustworthy, reliable, and dedicated to doing a great job! Highly recommend her for all of your pet needs!!”
“Lauren has been an amazing dog walker for my dog, Ginger. She’s kind, reliable, and always gives Ginger the best walks. What I love most is that she takes the time to snap adorable photos of Ginger every single day. It’s such a nice touch! Lauren also keeps me updated on how Ginger is doing, which puts my mind at ease. It’s clear she really cares about the dogs she works with, and Ginger absolutely adores her. I’m so happy to have found Lauren and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of patience, attentiveness, and genuine care I bring to every pet. With 20 years of hands on experience, I understand that animals have individual personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I take time to earn their trust, notice the little things, and make them feel safe while their family is away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is being treated like family. My flexible schedule allows me to make pet care a natural part of my daily routine. I’m available throughout the week and can dedicate plenty of time to walks, feeding, playtime, check ins, and companionship. I’ll work with you to follow the schedule your pet already knows and feels comfortable with. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, walking routines, house rules, and special care requests. I keep doors and leashes secure, pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, and make sure their environment stays clean and comfortable. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chelsea
Haowen was great! He took my dog for a walk 3 times while my husband and I were away and our dog sitter was going to be away for long hours. He took many pictures, allowed our dog to go on a “sniffari” and made us feel reassured that he was taken care of while we were away from him.

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.
