About: I grew up taking care of dogs and cats, eventually I started working at a Pet sitting company. I love the pets special habits or tricks Have taken some basic dog training classes. I have a hybrid job that allows me to do long-term stays! I have required meetings on Tuesday morning, but otherwise have a super flexible schedule. I am not available on Saturdays or Sundays. I am not able to board at my home due to a lack of space, but my job allows me to spend full time looking after your pet. I can do check-ins or long stays if your pet needs a companion. I understand the importance of following the pet's routine.
About: Hi! My name is Te'Ana, usually and preferably I go by T. I’ve taken care of and (moderately) trained dogs of all kinds for over 20 years now. I love all fur babies like they are my own and hope to add yours to my guest list. Message me so I may learn about the ways you communicate and about the specific likes and dislikes that both of you have. Your dogs stay will be customized care based on his/her personality and needs. I typically take on as many furry friends as possible in regards to my schedule. I’m experienced as a sitter for all breeds. I understand the needs of each and upon initial request and drop off I will ask you many questions to make your dogs stay as similar to home as possible. I want my space to be the epitome of a home away from home for your pup. I currently host pups and have plenty of time to care, play and love on all of my guest. I am available to Boarding, Day care and pick up your pups Only. I have enough space and time that I host boarding for 2-3families and conduct daycare for a few pups more at a time for weekdays and weekends. I have a completely fenced back yard and a very energetic pup (Dutchess) to keep your pup company during his/her stay. For those puppy parents crate training their pups I do have additional crates upon request.
“Winnie had another great walk with Grace to the park. She really enjoys watching the activity and whimpers because I think she wants to play with everyone she sees. Thanks Grace!!”
“Cam and Taylor are absolutely amazing! Not only do they walk our dog, they work with her and train her while doing so! They always send us amazing updates and pictures! They walk her several times a week because I work, and I never have to worry about her! I highly recommend them!”
About: I love dogs! They are the best creatures and so much more than just a pet. My Boston Terrier & I were together for 14 years, from pup to the end of his beautiful life. That bond is something I carry into every dog I care for. I’ve helped friends and family care for their dogs, fostered an adult dog through the ASPCA, and I treat every pup that comes into my care like my own. When you leave your little love with me you can breathe easy knowing they’re safe, genuinely loved, and in the best hands. I look forward to connecting with you and showing your dog the care they deserve! I work from home and am available throughout the day. Pet care isn’t my routine. Your dog will receive my full attention, love and care whether that’s a walk, a drop-in, or a cozy boarding stay at my home. In my home, dogs are free to explore and feel at home. I have a large yard where they can enjoy fresh air and outdoor time throughout the day. I love being outside and regularly take dogs to the local nature preserve for walks and hikes. I have a smoke free home and can accommodate crating if needed. I never give treats without owner approval and always clean up immediately. At your home, I show up with the same level of care and attention. Throughout every visit I send photos and updates with the same level of care and attention. I’ve been told I should be a dog photographer so expect some really great pictures of your baby!

About: With 15 years of animal care, I know I can handle any assignment needed. I started dog sitting, long term, when I was 16 years old. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, whatever you need I’m here to do the job right. My schedule is fairly flexible, I drive school bus during the day to keep my little one with me. I wanted to supplement my income with doing what I love, spending time with animals. If the little one can not be around your pet I have short term child care when needed. If home visits are needed your home will always be left exactly as it is found. No matter the environment I am not here to judge. As long as you and your pet are happy all is well!
About: Hello I am a former home stager, custom closet, kitchen and bathroom designer. I have owned and taken care of animals of breeds and ages. Everything from turtles and lizards to cats, dogs and horses. From kittens to older animals. I travel for work with a ever changing schedule so I do not own pets like I would like to. I currently own an older cat but that’s all. I am happy to spend my time off helping others care for their pets as if they were my own. I am insured. My schedule changes almost daily. I don’t work a normal 9-5 job. I have anywhere from 7-15 days off a month. I will even walk a dog on my way home from work it my schedule allows for it. It’s best to contact me for services at last minute or two weeks BEFORE the next month. I usually have my schedule around 20th the month before. For example I should know my December schedule around November 20th. I live in the suburbs and drive to the city for work. So I am happy to drive to anyone’s home in between my home and Philadelphia.
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.

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 Compass. 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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
