“Jay was amazing with Bentley! This was his time walking with Jay and Bentley gets pretty particular with his walks. Jay was patient and successful while taking him out. Will definitely book again!”
“Sarah is great! Our dogs are always happy to see her and she consistently goes above and beyond what would normally be required. Sarah is very thoughtful and genuinely cares for the animals she works with.”

About: We were lucky to have two amazing dogs for 15 and 16 years, caring for them from playful puppyhood all the way through their senior years—including supporting one through cancer. They’ve since passed, and we truly miss having that love and energy in our home. Because of our experience, we’re comfortable and equipped to care for dogs at every stage of life. More than anything, we understand how much your pups mean to you, and we’ll give them the same love, attention, and care we gave our own. I work from home full time, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. Most weekends we spend time at home playing in our fenced in backyard. At my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fenced-in backyard for play and potty breaks. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. Crates are available if needed, and I make sure pups get plenty of love, attention, and snuggle time. When visiting a client’s home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s usual schedule to keep them comfortable. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions so your dog feels safe and loved in their own environment.
“We really appreciate Anna for consistently being available when we need her. She really is super reliable. I trust her with my dogs and my dogs love it when Anna comes over to hang out with them! I highly recommend Anna!”
“Andrew was extraordinarily patient and kind with our dogs. My dog Jack is fearful of strangers and a real handful. Andrew was able to handle walking him and our other dog Auggie. We appreciate his willingness to take on the task of taking them on daily walks. Definitely recommend Andrew to care for your fur babies.”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Now, as a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pup when you can’t be there. I work in the medical field, so I’m very attentive, dependable, and comfortable following specific instructions and routines. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also understand that every dog has their own personality, and I’m comfortable giving shy or more cautious dogs the time and patience they need to warm up. I’ll care for your pup the same way I’d want someone to care for mine and will always send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing. I typically work about three days a week, which gives me flexibility on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’ll also have much more open availability from late November through mid-January. I’ll care for your pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and stick closely to their normal routine. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
About: I love animals but can’t have pets in my apartment so would appreciate sharing that love with your pet! I have been caring for a variety of pets since 2019, mostly dogs & cats (and the occasional bird!). I have experience with dogs of all sizes (from chihuahuas to Great Danes) and most ages. I have less experience with puppies but lots of experience with senior dogs. I have experience with high energy dogs that need multiple walks a day and dogs that struggle with mobility. I have experience with dogs who require medication. I have experience with cats of all temperaments. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. I have a fairly flexible schedule so am available during the day most days and on weekends. I have been regularly caring for my parents’ elderly Great Dane (11 years old now) since 2020. I am looking forward to spending more time caring for pets. I care for pets in their home environment according to the standards set by the owners. I am very conscious of varying family rules on things such as furniture and am happy to adhere to those expectations. I prefer to stick to whatever schedule the pet(s) are used to (regular walk times, regular feeding times, etc).
About: I have experience dog walking and pet sitting for dogs big and small, as well as puppies to seniors. As the former companion to a pitbull, I love all breeds, especially those that are misunderstood. I’m currently working part time so I have lots of time for your pets!

About: I grew up with dogs and a cat in a loving home and absolutely love animals! I've also dog sat for close family and friends throughout my life. My soul kitty just passed away recently and I'm looking to fill my time with love, care, and cuddles from our furry family members we love so much. I know what it's like to care for, show love and interest, play and meet their needs where they're at. I may be new to pet sitting with Rover, but I am not new to caring for and loving animals. I've used Rover for pet sitters to care for my cat when she was with me, and am familiar with this platform and the needs/concerns of being a pet parent. I promise to care for your pets just as I did for my kitty. I work in the office Monday-Wednesdays, but work from home Thursdays-Fridays. I have more daytime flexibility for drop ins on Thur/Fri. Otherwise happy to do drops ins outside of working hours in the beginning of the week. While I live in a condo, there is plenty of space to take dogs out for a walk, potty, etc. I live in a quiet complex and have a nice little nature path between our buildings. I can also easily to take them to dog parks that are close by (on leash of course, I wouldn't take them off leash as they are not my own-for everyone's safety). If staying at your home-I am respectful and will follow all instructions to the t.
About: I love, respect, care for and appreciate all Gods beautiful creations, especially if I am blessed to receive them personally. I have had and taking care of pets my entire life and I don’t have any children. Taking care of your babies would be my absolute honor and bring me joy to provide a peace of mind for you to enjoy knowing your family is in good hands when you can’t bring them along. I have no other responsibilities at the moment with being on no-one else’s scheduled time, so all my time is set to your appointments with my full service and necessary attention undivided. I’m a cuddler to the spoiled fubbies as I understand them completely! I give them loads of love and attention, of course food water, and take them on walks as often as need be alongside whatever other requirements may be necessary for successfully taken care of the fur babies!
About: Since I can't have a pet of my own right now, I love treating every dog and cat I meet like family. 🐾💕 I absolutely love spending time with animals, and caring for them is one of my favorite things. I have a flexible part-time schedule, so when I'm not practicing volleyball, I'd much rather be hanging out with your furry bestie! Whether it's walks, playtime, or cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. And of course, you'll get plenty of photo updates because I know you'll miss them! 🤍 I have a very flexible schedule! I train in the mornings on weekdays, so I'm available for drop-in visits before and after practice. My evenings and weekends are generally open, making it easy to accommodate walks, house sitting, and quality time with your pets. I know every pet is different, so I love having detailed instructions! A consistent routine and an organized environment help me provide the best care possible. I'll carefully follow your feeding schedule, walk routine, medication instructions, and any other preferences so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. I'm happy to care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stick to the routine they know best. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible
About: I got my first dog at the age of 5 and my love for pets only grew from there. I've worked as a volunteer at a rescue as well as a professional Kennel Technician. I'm the person who answers "both" to the question "are you a dog or a cat person?" Unlike apartment complexes, I don't have any breed restrictions. In fact, I adore bully breeds and rescued my own pit mix. I'm also experienced with both puppies and kittens so I have no age restrictions either. I would be happy to set up a meet & greet prior to a booking. Please let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to answer them! I have open availability at the moment so I can spend as much time as you want with your pets and would love an excuse to leave my apartment. I am comfortable with every type of harness and leash and can crate your pet if necessary. I understand that all pets have boundaries and will respect those boundaries as I learn them. Your pet's trust is very important to me and I will work hard to earn it. I'm more than happy to set up a meet & greet to introduce myself to them.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkston
Elisabeth did a phenomenal job walking my dog. I am usually hesitant to hire help because my dog can have some behavioral issues, but Elisabeth made sure he was comfortable and safe on each walk. She went above and beyond to send me daily updates with lots of pictures. Elisabeth is extremely responsible, kind, flexible, and my dog had such a great time with her. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Meghan has been a pleasure to work with and help me with my dogs. I have one rambunctious dog and a giant scaredy cat of a dog. She has worked with both well! Making friends with the scared one and controlling the naughty one. Highly recommend. There is no question she cares about animals and is thinking about their welfare, which is the most important thing in an indivdual you are trusting with your pets.
Andrew was extraordinarily patient and kind with our dogs. My dog Jack is fearful of strangers and a real handful. Andrew was able to handle walking him and our other dog Auggie. We appreciate his willingness to take on the task of taking them on daily walks. Definitely recommend Andrew to care for your fur babies.
Eryn is amazing to my furry kids, Zoe and Luca! Her patience and care helped my initially anxious Zoe warm up quickly, feeling safe and at ease. Both pups romped with joy and thrived under her attentive watch—Eryn’s genuine caring and love shines through. I can’t recommend her enough; she’s my go-to, and I’ll book again soon. Thanks for treating them like your own! 🐶🐶❤️

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

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 .

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.
