About: I’ve had many dogs in my life and am 100% dogs. I spent many years volunteering with the labrador retriever rescue. I work from home 100% helping families with life insurance. Fenced yard & pool! I work from home full time. We have a couple walks a day, but have a fenced yard & in ground pool with a doodle layer 18 in deep. We’re fenced with a large goldendoodle gal that absolutely loves to play with other dogs! Dogs are allowed on furniture & allowed to exit the doggie door to play outside (if they know how)
About: I had a reactive dog for the last 18 years. I understand the quirks and behaviors of dogs very well. I will always listen to the owner's advice and not assume that I know best. I am currently unemployed, so this is my priority! I am available 24/7 until I am out of town for family obligations. I am excited to get some much-needed exercise with your pets. I was a helicopter mom with my dog. I took him to the vet pretty quickly. I will notice any change in your dog and notify you right away.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for 3 years now. I’ve done a wide variety of jobs. I have worked on a long term schedule, stayed overnight, and handled last minute care situations. Every single time I have met both the fur baby and owner with care, compassion, and trust. I have always loved caring for pets and love to tune in with each of their personalities! From hyperactive pups to our elderly babies who just want to watch tv together. It’s amazing to bring out the personality in each one and give them the opportunity to be in charge! If they want to walk, we walk, if they want to play, we play, if they want to chill all day, we chill! I can ensure that while you’re out, your pet will be taken care of and loved so you can remain stress free. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to work with you and your pet. I love getting out of the house and would love to spend the day with your fur buddy! I currently have one large dog and one cat in my home. I plan to only work within the clients home. I believe it’s best to keep pets in their safe space so they can remain stress free while you remain stress free as well. I’m accustomed to house sitting, house care, and staying overnight if needed. I can assure you that I will abide by the campsite rule and always leave things better than how I found them!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I am dependable and will take care of your furry friend like it were my own. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have plenty of time to tend to the needs of your pet, whatever they may be. I do not currently have any dogs or cats so your furry friend will have the run of our house. I do not have a fenced in yard, but will be happy to take your pup on walks. I am happy to crate your animal as needed.
“Melissa communicates quickly and always sends lots of pics. She is always timely for visits too! Its the best feeling, knowing my doggo is well taken care of when I am away.”

About: I’ve had multiple pets my entire life, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’ve also pet sat and walked dogs for my neighbors and friends for many years. I’m very reliable, always on time, and great at following detailed instructions, so your pet’s routine stays the same while you’re away. I truly care about how your animal is feeling and what they need, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I recently moved back home, and pet sitting is now my full-time focus!

With open availability, I can be flexible and accommodate your pet’s specific needs, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and anything else their pet needs. During walks, I make sure dogs get plenty of attention and a chance to burn off some energy. While house sitting, I spend time with pets so they have company and don’t feel lonely while their owner is away. I truly want pets to feel safe, happy, and cared for the whole time I’m with them.
About: I’ve always had a great love for animals! Growing up with three dogs and three cats taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve also helped bring displaced dogs from Puerto Rico to the mainland United States to find loving homes. Along with cats and dogs, I’m familiar with caring for other animals, including guinea pigs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes and enjoy providing walks, playtime, baths, and plenty of love and attention. I also have six years of experience as a nationally registered pharmacy technician, which taught me the importance of following medication instructions carefully and watching for potential side effects. Please share any medication or injection needs beforehand so we can discuss whether I can provide the appropriate care. I’m available Monday through Friday after 4:30 p.m., with early morning walks also possible, and all day and overnight on weekends. My husband and I coordinate our work schedules so your pet can receive more frequent attention and companionship. For boarding, pets are typically alone for no more than 4–6 hours at a time. We’ll confirm our schedules before booking to ensure we can meet your pet’s needs. I’m easy to reach and happy to follow your pet’s routine and specific care instructions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full time, but I make time before and after work for attentive care, playtime, and companionship. I’m flexible with pet sitting in your home and happy to discuss a schedule that fits your pet’s routine. For boarding, my husband and I coordinate our schedules so pets are typically alone for no more than 4–6 hours at a time. I’ll confirm availability and time away before each booking to make sure we’re a good fit for your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your care instructions and make sure doors are securely locked after arriving and leaving. During walks, I’ll keep your pet leashed and maintain a safe distance from unfamiliar animals. I’ll also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and surroundings to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

(Titusville, Port St. John, Cocoa, rockledge, Viera, depending on my location) Book me if you want someone to love your babies🤍 Pet care fits into my schedule because I have a lot of flexibility in between work and my college classes.

Mine are not in crates but if you need me to crate your babies just let me know.

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 Courtenay. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Courtenay.

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.

- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
