About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I’ve worked in a doggie daycare. I’ll work with any pet you have; small animals, cats, dogs, fish. I’ll care your pets like they are my own. Loving and caring. I can train dogs with leash pulling or when they are starting new. I’m available anytime of the day Monday through Friday 10am- 6pm. If needing later time just ask and I might be available that day. I am flexible with schedule. It’s up to you and your schedule and what you need. I currently have no fence for my doggos. I have my senior dog on a lead. My senior pup has medicine and I give them to her in the mornings right after she goes outside. If you have questions for me, I’ll answer them. Update: I currently have no pets. Sam passed away in June. I still take care of my mom’s pets and now my aunts like they are my own.

“Elisie was wonderful! We booked last minute, and she was very flexible and responsive. She gave our pup lots of attention and even adjusted for extreme weather—we had a blizzard and 90 degree weather all in the same week! We’d definitely recommend her and would happily have her care for our dog again in the future.”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child. I have cared for dogs/puppies and cats/kittens of all ages. I have years of experience caring for barnyard and exotic pets as well. I am also a registered nurse and have medical education and training to add. I love caring for animals and treat all of them just like family! Pet owners who book services with me with receive regular pictures and updates so they know their beloved pet(s) are safe and happy! I work full-time from the end of August through the end of May, but have evenings and weekends off. I have summers off and have extended breaks during Thanksgiving and Christmas, plus other holidays, allowing me plenty of opportunity to assist you with your time away from your beloved pet(s). I would be caring for your pet in your home and would be available to do overnight stays, day hours, or whatever timeframe needed while you are away.

About: Trusting someone with your pets can be challenging, but finding the right person makes it worthwhile. Knowing your pets are cared for while you’re away provides peace of mind. My husband and I are veterans who volunteer to raise puppies for Partners for Patriots, a nonprofit that helps other veterans regain their freedoms, whether it’s managing PTSD or providing support after a fall. I take caring for your babies seriously and treat them like my own. I just recently graduated from Buena Vista University with a Bachelors in Business Management. I am right now open as much as possible to take care of your fur babies. It might change in the future but I will adjust when that time comes. Currently I do not have the space to board your animals but I am able to come to your house and be sure that they are taken care of. If you are able to provide what they need in terms of medications (how many times a day), feeding schedule (how much they get) and any favorite things or routines they have so that I am able to best take care of them.

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 Cherokee. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Cherokee after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
