About: I grew up on a 25 acre cow farm. As a child I had every pet imaginable. As a mother I allowed my children to experience owning pets. My 2 youngest grown children have dogs and they are my grand dogs lol. We are a horse family. I have a degree in education and have been a teacher for ever. If I can be trusted with children then you can certainly trust me with you pets. I currently don’t have any pets due to where I live. The landlord is strict on the no pets policy. I know it’s a bummer 👎 All my children are grown so I have evenings and weekends free 👍 I know pets can be considered as a family member so I will take care of them as if they are my own children. I will provide plenty of extra love and kisses.
“Kendall has been wonderful with my rescue pup who’s experiencing a lot of separation anxiety since we moved and I’ve been having to travel for work a few days a week. She’s very communicative and I can tell she takes great care of all the pets that are in her charge. I would highly recommend Kendall for your pet sitting/walking needs any time!”
“Jack is awesome at caring for our large breed dog, Titus. We adopted a puppy in June and were nervous about leaving him home all day once school hours returned in August. Having the peace of mind from Jack’s updates and photos from daily walks put us at ease. Jack is a natural with dogs, and he knew what questions to ask right away. It did not matter that Titus was 50 pounds at only 4 months old. Jack did great with Titus on leash walks and backyard play. Titus loves every visit. The communication has been stellar. I highly recommend Jack for your dog sitting/dog walking needs.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old! What started as helping family, friends, and neighbors turned into years of experience caring for all kinds of furry friends. 🐶🐱 I also have experience handling pet emergencies, administering medications, and responding efficiently when urgent situations arise. I’ve always loved being the person people can count on when their pets need a little extra love and attention. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, which is why I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, responsibility, plenty of affection, and, of course, lots of belly rubs and playtime! ❤️🐾 As a server and bartender, my flexible schedule allows me to spend my free time doing something I truly love—caring for animals! I also love being outdoors and taking pets on walks and adventures where they can experience new sights, exciting smells, and plenty of fresh air. I care for every pet as if they were my own while following their normal routine and their owner’s specific instructions. I learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and preferences to help them feel comfortable. In my client’s home, I respect their space, keep everything clean and secure, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I enjoy taking dogs outside for safe, supervised walks and adventures when appropriate.
About: I have had my home base business for over 20 years and I'm looking to try something new. I have been a dog owner my entire life. I currently have 3 small dogs. I have ample time and desire to be a pet/house sitter on Rover. I love all pets, especially dogs and cats. Not a big fan of snakes. Please reach out to me, lets chat. My work is seasonal, meaning I mostly work from Spring to Fall. WIth my season coming to an end, I am looking to branch out and try something new. I have always loved animals so Rover seems like a great fit. I have a lot of free time heading into the winter. I have a 4 wheel drive vehicle so snow and ice wont stop me. I have 3 dogs. One is 13, one is 2 and the baby is 11 months. I also have 2 grown children who live at home. When I am at home working, my dogs are the shop with me. My shop is a 2 car garage and a fenced in yard. They stay outside with me most of the day with 2 breaks for naps in their private room. In the summer, they have a pool and plenty of shade. Their safely and comfort is important to me as is their need for play time, walks and lots of hugs and scratches. I am used to having a puppy around and cleaning up messes. As your pet sitter, I will never bring my dogs along with me. They have a dad at home to take care of them. My schedule is very flexible and I understand the need for help with pets. My seasonal job requires me to travel in the summer and getting pet sitters is sometimes tricky. I guess I should say, getting a trust worthy pet sitter who is going to deliver on her promises can be tricky.
About: I’ve attended the TCHS animal science program for 3 years where I’ve worked with many small animals, and have learned how to handle them, care for them etc I’m now attending Harcum College in the major Animal center Management. Animals are what I’m passionate about. I’m currently working part time, and go to school, but am looking for a side job, and what’s better than playing with puppies? I would love nothing better. In my clients home I will treat their pets like my own. I will respect the space and your privacy as if it was my own.
About: I have cared for dogs all my life. I successfully raised two dogs on my own. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to help with their dog care needs. I have just graduated from pharmacy school and am studying for my board exam. I am available weekdays and weekends all throughout the day, whatever your dog needs. I will maintain daily routines with feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and play time. I will uphold safety protocols and will respect your household’s boundaries.
About: I have been around animals and dogs all my life. I was raised on a three hundred acres veil farm in upstate NY where we had German Shepherds, Mastiff, Boarder Collies and Springer Spaniels . The last twenty plus years I have worked with Akita rescue in Florida and have personally owned two Akita's of my own Jayda my heart dog who passed in 2023 and Raider who passed away in 2014. I had hands on training from an Air Force Marine who use to train Belgian Malinois and German Shepherds, but don't let that fool you, I am a sucker for the small guys too! It will be a pleasure of mine to be able to walk, or care for your pet when you need the help. I am currently working part-time. I do have most morning, afternoon and some evenings available for walks, potty breaks, play time and or feedings available. I an not able to take in pets to my home as my son has his little sweet pitty staying with me at this time and does not like to share me with other pets.
About: hiiiii! I’m Alex!! I am an energetic, compassionate, extremely outgoing dog Dad of two even more energetic pups. I enjoy every moment I spend with my boys and all other animals. I come for their little cuddly little bodies and stick around for their individual personalities. Lastly, I have yet to meet a dog that can out walk me… do you have a high energy pup that would be a good match?? I currently work during the day… I am looking to spend my evenings getting my energy out by walking your dogs. This will provide you ample time to enjoy your summer evenings. 🙂 I treat every animal with respect and personal care, because that’s how I enjoy my pups to be cared for when I’m not around. I assure to keep an eye things, wow, providing the space for dogs to be dogs. My goal and spending time with your pups to ensure they come back happy, healthy, and tired.
About: Like most people on this app, I love all animals. I grew up on a farm and currently have a dog of my own (his name is Colby 🐶). Over the years my family and I have fostered both cats and dogs ranging from 2 months old to 10 years old. I have also previously worked at different animal shelters. At the moment I am out of school and out of work so I am at home for most the day. I enjoy this though because it gives me time to take care of my pup I have a fenced in yard and a huge basket filled with fun and challenging toys! I make sure to give my dog a potty break at least every 2 hours but when it’s nice out, I leave the door open. My pup goes for walks 2-4 times a day depending on the weather and how I think my dog is feeling.
About: Hello furry parents! My name is Lily and I’m excited to support you and your family. I have worked with all dog breeds and all ages through fostering. I am currently in my training certification program to provide proper education to you and your puppers. I am an online student looking to spend my free time with amazing pets. My top priority is to give all animals time and love. Whether it’s giving a long walk, using my dog park at my complex or administering medication, I’m your girl! When I would care for your pets, it’s all about the greeting. I would love to make sure your pets are as comfortable with you as for me! If you’d love me to help them learn tricks, feel free to request!
About: Hi there! My name is Jamiah, but feel free to call me by my nickname, Mia! I started building my pet care business in 2017. Now in 2025, I work at a non profit as a Communications & Marketing Specialist. While I took time away from Rover to start my career, my heart is calling me back to my ultimate passion-providing high quality care and comfort for all furry friends, while meeting fantastic like-minded people along the way! My love for all animals is deeply immense. Thanks to my mother-I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, as well as birds! And I was encouraged to always look out for animals and even saved a pregnant cat and raised a litter of kittens when I was 10 (I will share that story when we have the pleasure of meeting). With the animal lover trait being instilled in me, I take the utmost pride in being selected to look after yours. I currently have 1 dog (german shepherd) and 1 cat! I also take care of my mom’s dog (shepherd mix). I attended Conrad Schools of Science and chose the Animal Science career pathway for 3 years. Those 3 years provided me with the basic knowledge about all barn animals and pets. This experience enabled my passion for helping animals no matter how large or small. I’ve always taken the opportunity to volunteer and give back to shelters who need support. Faithful Friends became my home for a few summers as I walked dogs and cleaned countless litter pans. I am very well-rounded and balanced as it comes to animal care. I truly hope we get a chance to meet for your upcoming pet care needs! I do work full-time right now but my schedule is a hybrid one and thankfully extremely flexible! Do not hesitate to elaborate on your scheduling needs, I will always accommodate and coordinate with you effectively. I’m extremely open and always happy to help out :-) I will provide the utmost level of care and thoughtfulness for your pets as if I was taking care of my own pets in my household. I take your trust very seriously and it’s crucial in building a meaningful relationship as your sitter.
“Nathan is the exact person you wanted taking care of your pets. He would take little Nathan out for us everyday at lunch time and my dog looked forward to his daily trips with one of his best buds. He always treated Nathan kindly and I never had to worry about anything. Not only was he professional but he became a crucial part of our day to day. I’d gladly take his services any day. 10/10 walker. 1000/10 person!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,701 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Collins. 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 Collins. 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 Collins after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Collins. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
