Feriha is great with our young puppy! She was very attentive to our energetic pup’s needs. She arrived on time and followed our instructions. After each walk, she provides plenty of detail and adorable pictures. Highly recommend!

About: From a young age I always loved animals. It started with a turtle which quickly became cats and dogs as I got older. I don’t believe in abusing anything, so I wouldn’t ever allow any animal to be abused in any way, shape or form. They are precious. I’m currently about to start working a job that allows me to be part time so I have free time on my hands to care for any dog or cat necessary. I do have a backyard and there’s a dog park close that allows me to walk on a daily basis . I follow any and all routines needed.

Michael has been a reliable dog walker for us for over 6 months now. Romeo is 16.5, and Michael’s patience has been appreciated with some growing needs and a few extra steps in caring for a senior dog. Thank you, Michael, for your care and attention to detail 🙏🏽

About: I’ve had pets most of my life. I cared for my rescue dog Saebee for seven years, and now I have a cat named Popper, who I’ve had for three years. I’m home for the summer, a part-time student as well, and available between noon and 5pm on weekdays to care for and play with your pets. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get enough exercise and playtime, and feel safe and relaxed. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language so I can respond to their needs.

About: I've been a pet owner for over ten years for both dogs and cats. I used to work at a Montessori school for dogs and as a behavioral specialist at an animal shelter, so I have taken courses from both the Victoria Stilwell Academy and the Karen Pryor Academy and have some experience with animal training. I am familiar with many temperaments and how to properly approach a new friend. While I am still working towards certification, I’d be happy to positively reinforce good habits as well as teach your animal a fun trick or two (this extends to cats as well)! I am currently an online student, so my schedule is fairly flexible for any and all schedules, although I would prefer working in the morning and during the day before the sun goes down. At your home, I'm comfortable with pets of all temperaments. I can keep up with dogs who want to play all day, or I can chill and provide cuddles to the softer, gentler pups. Some pets are content watching from a distance, and I can do that as well. At my dog school job, we had a detailed system of categorizing different "play styles", and at my shelter job, I often taught interested adopters how to properly introduce themselves to a possible new family member. I hope to incorporate that into my work with your beloved pet so we can better understand one another.

What a good thing to be able to trust someone with your dog and with Tiffany I felt it 100%. She was communicative- sending lots of updates and photos. From the photos it’s evident how happy my Nera was with being cared for and walked by Tiffany. Would rebook without hesitation.

About: I have taken care of my own pets since I was 13 and have trained them myself, and if you ask any body in my family they would probably tell you that they are spoiled. I have also helped family members take care of puppies and kittens; helping with feedings, cleaning, potty training, etc. So, that they could find forever homes. I am currently a freshman in college and my class load is fairly easy and flexible giving me ample time to focus on your pet. I am a stickler for rules and following instructions, so however you want me to look after your pet and the boundaries set; I will follow exactly how you want as the pet owner.

About: I am a fitness director and live an active lifestyle. I am able to spend quality time with your family pets, give them the love and exercise they need. When you're away, your vacation is like their vacation. Your pets are my first priority and they deserve to be pampered! I enjoy dogs of all sizes, can continue any training you've established, able to drive or take them to vet visits or take them to parks/hiking if desired. I often work with cat clients for feeding, visits and tidying up. I also find exercise and play time to be just as important for the cats and am able to spend that extra time with them to ensure a happy visit. All pets, all animals, all needs are welcome!

About: I have had a love for animals since I was a toddler. One of my favorite things to do with my childhood dogs were go on walks and play around the house. I've gotten to be around all sorts of animals like donkey's, alpacas, horses, and many more I love animals they are my pride and joy My schedule is pretty flexible. I am open to different hours and don't mind last minute openings if needed. I like to have my schedule planned out but I am also very adaptable I am not currently able to board at my home at the moment but I am open to board else where. I can do walks or sitting as well

This was my first time using Rover and I was initially a bit nervous about the process. Not anymore- Madison earned my trust immediately after the first walk. She was on time, communicative before and after booking, she shared photos, and she was incredibly flexible throughout. 10/10 would recommend!

We downloaded the Rover app as an alternative to using a kennel because of the high prices, and honestly, we were a bit skeptical at first. But within just a few hours, we connected with Michael — and everything changed. After reading his reviews, we scheduled a meet‑and‑greet to see how our dog would react. Our dog took to him immediately, which made the decision easy. We booked Michael for two walks a day for seven days while we were on vacation and set up a lockbox so he could access our home. Michael was caring, compassionate, and genuinely loving toward our dog. It was clear he went the extra mile every single day. We came home to a happy, well‑cared‑for pup — and we saved a ton compared to boarding. Thank you, Mike. You’re amazing.

I feel so lucky to have found Melony and Melissa. My sweet dog needs someone gentle and understanding, which is why exactly who Melony is. Her communication is fantastic and I know my pup is in safe hands. When your dog is your heart outside yourself, finding someone to trust is important - and that’s why I am so, so happy we found Melony. I highly recommend all sweet and timid puppies take a walk with Melony.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Deanwood dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Deanwood.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times

  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
