“Joselyn is great with our dog. She is very warm and understanding. She is happy to accommodate our routine and requests. She is very communicative, asking any questions that will benefit our dog's experience and sending recaps of each walk. I highly recommend Joselyn.”


“Mary has been a great dog walker for our kid Marshall. She’s attentive, courteous, and Marshall enjoyed his time with her. She will be walking him on a weekly basis to give him a break from long days at doggy daycare. She sent lots of photos and videos which was perfect and eased my mind! Looking forward to working with Mary more!”


“Arianna is by far the top of the top!! She isn't just in the top 1%, she IS the top of the .01% of anyone on Rover, or anywhere else for that matter. Let's just say I've been there/done that with a close family member as a veterinarian and personal experience volunteering at a different veterinarian hospital for an extended amount of time, which was almost 40hrs/wk. after certification through classes and hands on training, which I pretty much already had since I've rescued animals as early as I can remember as well as my parents doing so prior to my existence. I'm coming up on 40 yr's old quicker than I could have imagined and I enjoy my five rescue animals. Arianna helps make it all possible, especially with my older, yet tenacious big guy. She has cared for him daily and I don't trust hardly anyone from my animals to finance to the point where I do all on my own but Arianna is the #1 person I know I can trust and she has proven that time and again. If you're searching for anyone on Rover etc., I strongly suggest and promise that you can end your search where it's at and go with Arianna. Just don't take her away from my rescued guy, Herbie:) If Rover allows, you may contact me through them for any comments, questions, or concerns. However, I've already given you a review from, what I consider myself to be, an experienced individual. I can say with certainty, you want to employ Arianna and can end your search for the right person for the job. I did my homework and due diligence far beyond I bet anyone has completed. So, this is for both those out there searching and Arianna because she is the one you want to go with if at all possible. Thanks Rover and thank you more, Arianna!! Sincerely, Mr. Guenther”


“Both my dog and I think Claire is the best! She was professional, prompt and a good communicator. And - she went above and beyond - giving Coltrane long walks and lots of attention. I totally recommend her and Coltrane gives her a big paws up, too!”


“Holly has been so wonderful to work with. She responds quickly to messages and has been very accommodating to our crazy schedule. Holly has been great about sending pictures and updates from the walk, which is great to see while we're at work! Merlyn loves her!”


“Anna is excellent, I have been a repeat customer for many weeks now. She is very responsive and always provides detailed updates (water breaks & potty breaks).”



“Josephine is absolutely amazing! She’s wonderful with joy and a pleasure to be around! She’s always there when you need her takes her time and even goes past her times on walks giving the pups extra time outside! which is amazing! Best person in the world to trust your dog to. Your dog will be in the best hands, have the best care, and they will get lots of love and attention. Sincerest thanks to Josephine!”

Pets are always treated like family. I try to keep pets on the same schedule and type of environment that they are used to at home. Depending on dog breed/size/age, walks can be up to an hour long.

Dog Walking FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
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 Downtown.
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
- A map of their walk with total distance
- 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.
