About: I've been dog sitting since I was a teen. I love dogs, my Hans is my first Baby, he unfortunately passed away with cancer at the age of 6. We were blessed to adopt his sister (his mom's last litter around 4 years ago) Piper. Piper is very sweet and tender. I run about 4 miles a day. And I walk with my son, Hakan who loves dogs, about 2 times a day. Safe area, plenty of room to run and play. Your fur baby will spend all day with me, my little boy and our 4 year old, ultra sweet border collie, piper If needed, we have a dog crate for sleeping in, but your dog is welcome to sleep in whatever arrangement he or she is used to. I prefer to host dogs at my home, but I can come to you too, so long as it's not too far away. I hope to see you soon! I am currently a stay at home mom and typically home nearly all day. I run every day and go.out and enjoy being outside a lot. I don't have a fenced yard but I don't take dogs out without a leash. I have fun with the dogs and so do my kids Adelaj 9, Magnus 5 and Hakan 18 months

About: I have worked with animals most of my life. I have experience administering medication of all types. When I pet sit I will run, walk, and/or continue training with dogs and puppies. I will take the time to learn what both you and your beloved pet need while you are gone and update you as much as you prefer. ❤️ I am striving to turn working and caring for dogs into my full-time career. I love caring for dogs in my home and offering my clients detailed communication regarding their dog(s) while away. I gladly accept reactive dogs, special needs dogs, and high energy or high maintenance dogs as I am home full-time. When boarding, big dogs and little dogs are kept separate. During unsupervised times such as when we are sleeping dogs are either in a kennel or allowed to roam the household if they are not destructive and owners are comfortable. Generally, dogs eat twice daily unless otherwise discussed. Medications are given at the times they are needed and each dose is logged in the app for peace of mind. I usually send one or two pictures a each day with a brief update. On occasion I send videos if we are doing something fun. I do work with dogs that are not dog or people friendly. With reactive or unfriedly dogs I ask for a little more notice so I do not book other dogs during that time. Discounts offered, please ask me about them. :)

About: I’ve taken care of family & friend’s horses, dogs, cats and even a bird! Most of the cats I look after are senior cats, however I also care for dogs too! (A St. Bernard, 2 daschunds, a pitbull, and 2 Rottweilers, just to name a few breeds) I’m a pretty adventure-driven person and empathetic to animals. The people I surround myself with, love to travel (as do I) and often times their dogs and cats need a reliable & established sitter so I do tend to travel out of state to pet sit and housesit when needed. I’m currently an independent artist & retired wrestler on the move to Arkansas from Kentucky. I don’t have any pets of my own but I enjoy taking care of animals of loved ones and neighbors. As I start this new chapter of my life, I’m looking to create art more while a flexible but full time job of pet sitting. You’re welcome to provide me with care instructions but I mostly just talk to animals like they’re small children learning. I sing songs sometimes when I play with toys or when we go on walks, but especially during bathing(if necessary/requested) a cat/dog to help calm their nerves. Cats tend to love cuddling with me and I love taking active dogs for walks on nature trails or car rides.

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 Decatur. 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 Decatur.

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 Decatur. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
