“The dogs loved Kristie and came back from their walks/romps tired and smiling. After their first walk with her they were eager to get into her car again the next day.”
“Mike was a terrific walker for my brother’s headstrong 8.5yo Kate while brother was recovering from knee surgery. He bonded well with the dog, handled and disciplined her appropriately and was easy for us to work with. Highly recommended!”
About: I have been caring for pets for many years and have experience in caring for dogs, cats, fish and other animals. I have a genuine love for animals that sets me apart from other sitters as I approach every care opportunity with excitement and knowledge of how important this job is! I have a senior dog of my own that I adore and have worked with numerous families with young pets, old pets, big pets, and tiny pets. I have experience in caring for all different kinds of animals, from high energy puppies to seniors! Thank you for considering me in caring for your pet! I have a very flexible schedule. I am available every day after 3pm but am also able to drop in throughout the day like in the mornings or around lunchtime, depending on your pet's needs. On the weekends I am openly available. I am excited to care for your pet in your home however is most comfortable for you! I have experience in a variety of families and am happy to go on walks, play fetch, anything that you would normally do to care for your pet, just let me know!
About: As much as we want to bring our pets everywhere with us sometimes, we can’t. But that shouldn’t mean your pet isn’t living their best life possible. I can check in on your pet for some company, pets and play time, treats, meals, water, and a walk. I can also do anything else they may need. My goal is to give your pet a better day and give you a peace of mind knowing your pet is happy. I grew up on a farm with all animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, and horses. I was in a dog club growing up and learned basic dog training skills. Over the years I’ve cared for puppies and senior dogs needing special assistance and medications. I’ve helped care for multiple animals and hope to have the opportunity to care for yours too. I’m working part time in (human) healthcare. As much as I love people, I want to spend more time with animals on my days off. I work every Monday and Wednesday and am busy Saturday most of the time. My schedule changes once in a while but this is the general availability. I am mostly available morning and afternoon until about 3pm. Please ask for any specific times though anytime and I’ll see if it ends up working out. Thanks! 😊 My goal is to make sure your dog is as well cared for as if you were there yourself. I can do what you request. I can feed, water, potty break, medication administration, play time and pets, or go for a walk. I can leave them out or crate when I leave.
About: I am experienced with animals ranging from xlarge to extra small, animals with attitude and animals that just want love. I am experienced with dog body language as well as basic training. I have experience administering oral medicines, ointments, and bandages. I am experienced with animal overnights, boardings, and walking I am a full time online college student and looking for a part time job as I just moved here from California so currently I am available mon-Sunday all hours of the day! I currently do not have any animals and due to just moving it will stay that way which is why I would love to care for others animals
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life! Not only my own dogs, but friends and neighbors dogs as well. I love animals and they love me. I am flexible and can adapt to serve your pets needs. I have great attention to detail and care for pets in a timely manner, feeding and walking consistently according to their normal schedule to avoid disrupting their routine. I know how tough it is to leave your pets, but I will give them love and care and send as many pictures as you’d like throughout their time with me. I am a grad student and I would be happy to add caring for your pet into my day or week. I have time to let your pet out about every 4-8 hours. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate any special requests. I do have a part time job with a variable schedule, so depending on the dates I may or may not have to go to work for about 8 hours. I groomed my golden doodle and gave him all his haircuts for several years. I’d be happy to groom your dog too! I will do my best to adjust to feed and walk or play with your dog at the time they are used to so their routine isn’t disturbed.
About: I’ve always believed that pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, especially when their people are away. I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m attentive to the little things, whether that’s making sure they get their medication, sticking to their normal schedule, giving them plenty of love and attention, or noticing when something just seems a little off. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s making sure you can be away knowing your pets are happy, cared for, and in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule because animals are already a big part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable working around different routines and making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I plan my schedule ahead of time so I can give the pets I’m caring for the time and attention they deserve rather than making them feel like they’re being squeezed into a busy day. My goal is to make their care feel consistent, calm, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Your pets deserve more than just someone stopping by—they deserve someone who genuinely cares about them. I provide loving, dependable in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s normal routine and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, including providing medications and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. During visits, I’ll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks and exercise, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also keep their space clean and give you updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love taking care of them. I have two dogs and two cats of my own, and I also grew up on a farm where I helped take care of all kinds of animals, which taught me to be responsible, patient, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of any age, size, and personality. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! As a college student, I do have a busy schedule, but I make sure to prioritize my time so that any pets in my care get the attention they deserve. I can work my classes and study around walks, playtime, feeding, or any special needs your pets might have. I enjoy spending time with animals, so making them a part of my daily routine fits in naturally. At home, I have two Golden Retrievers and two cats, so caring for pets is part of my daily life. I love taking my dogs on hikes or for drives to burn off energy, and I’m all about cuddling and giving attention to my cats. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do the same. Following their routines, making sure they get exercise, playtime, and lots of love so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.

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 Douglas. 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 .

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.
