“Today was my first experience with Rover/Molly. Wow! She went above and beyond! My dogs adore her…not the norm for them. Such piece of mind knowing your dogs are well cared for! I hesitate to give such a great review of Molly knowing that means she might not be available when I need her! 10/10!”

“We’ve had such a great experience with Anna! She’s taken care of our dog multiple times now, and each time she’s been incredibly reliable, communicative, and an absolute joy to work with. Our dog clearly loves her, and we always feel confident knowing he’s in good hands. Most recently, she reached out ahead of time to check in about the weather—specifically the rain and poor air quality—and offered to do a quick bathroom break with indoor playtime instead of a full walk. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and flexibility, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. Highly recommend!”

“Thea is the best! My dog still needs lots of training, he’s a foster with an unknown past and a pit bull, I’m so confident in her ability to handle him, she’s amazing. Today my dog slipped out of his collar when seeing another dog, she had anticipated his reaction and had him lay down before the dog walked past, and when he slipped out she grabbed him right away in a safe in non-hurtful and handled the situation like a champ! I’m so thankful he was with her and not with me to be honest, she is amazing with dogs, I love learning from her!”

“We were hesitant to use Rover and leave our dog in a stranger’s hands, but Angela allayed our fears with her calm demeanor, amazing communication and caring personality. She is extremely responsive and reliable and when we come home, we know that our dog has been well taken care of. We are highly satisfied with dog care that Angela has been giving us and would certainly recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter or walker.”

“Felisha is an absolute GEM 💎 she took such great care of our baby boy Maverick while my Aunt was watching him for us! I believe Maverick even walked better for Felisha then he does for my husband and I 😂 My Aunt couldn’t say enough great things about Felisha and stated ANYONE in the area that needed some help with their pup 🐶 should use her! Thank you so much Felisha we will definitely use you again!”

“Samantha is Amazing. Drake suffer from anxiety & fear. Instantly Drake took to Samantha, which lets me know that Drake feels safe with her!! I mentioned to Samantha that I would like to someday take Drake for a walk on a trail or to a park. She told me about a trail she knew & asked if she could take Drake there for his walk today and I said that would be awesome. After their time walking on the trail, Samantha sent me photos of the walk and let me know that Drake had a great time exploring new things and that he was a good boy. Over the last 6 months, Drake has been in training to develop skills to help cope with his anxiety & fear. Thank you so much Samantha for the patience and love you showed Drake today!! Taking him on trail walk with good behavior lets me know that his trainings working!! You will definitely be the 1st person I contact to care for Drake in the future!!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. I grew up with two and currently have a Husky and Terrier. On the days I am in the office (Typically M-W) I will only be available for drop ins/walks after 2:30 pm and early mornings. I do ask that if you need me M-W that times are flexible, I cannot always do hard set times. When I am WFH, I am available all day. Friends and family over the years have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, stop in and check on them for a simple belly scratch and potty break, all the way to staying the night to give them piece of mind while they're gone. I currently work full time. M-W I am able to stop into clients homes after I get off work, after 3. Thursday and Friday I work from home so besides meetings, I am able to drop in at any time of the day. Saturdays and Sundays I am pretty flexible as well :) Each client is different but I will learn what is best for their pet when I meet them. I won't crate their pet unless asked. Going outside with pets when they're out doing their business, and keeping them on a leash to keep them safe is my standard for caring for anyones pet. The parents know best and I'd follow their rules.

About my home: - very spacious ranch style home. - no stairs, plenty of room for your pet to run around. • VERY LARGE fenced in yard. - I allow my dog Leo to spend as much time as he wants outside.

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and other pets for family members and close friends. I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, including feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am dependable, patient, and passionate about animals, and I strive to create an stress-free, positive experience for both pets and their owners. I work only two days a week, giving me plenty of availability and flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available most days and can work around your schedule to ensure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I care for pets in my home by letting them roam wherever they please & make my home their home. And when taking care of them in their own homes I respect their home as if it were my own. I stick to schedules that the animal is on whether that be in my home or theirs!

About: I’ve been a cat owner and animal lover for 15+ years, and I’ve also cared for friends’ cats and walked dogs. I love spending intentional, one-on-one time with pets so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m incredibly attentive, follow care instructions closely, and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾 I work remotely and have an extremely flexible schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my routine. Due to my flexible schedule, I also accept last minute requests. In my home, I have two cats who love dogs. I have a yard without a fence, so I’d take your dog out on leash. I also love walking and would love to have a dog to join me. I ensure all pets receive lots of love, attention, and one-on-one time. I follow their routines and care instructions closely.

About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have an animal in my life. From shepherds to terriers, I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve trained my own dogs, cared for foster puppies, and have experience handling pets with different needs and temperaments. I’m very open to feedback, learn quickly, and always strive to provide the best care possible. When you book with me, you can expect meaningful, attentive, and reliable care for your pet. Your fur baby will have my full attention, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Rain or shine, I will show up and give every pet the patience, attention, and care they deserve! Over the summer I am working fully from home. Which means I have an open schedule to care for your pets. I am open from morning to night. I can do daily visits, weekly visits, and more. When house sitting for your pets, I prioritize a respectful and responsible approach. I value clear boundaries in my own life, so I make it a point to treat your home and privacy with that same high level of integrity. I’m fully open to your specific rules and feedback, and I’ll keep you connected with consistent updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.

About: I grew up helping train my grandparents’ corgi, and I still help my sister with her dog when she’s at work — letting him out, feeding him, and taking him for walks. So I’m very comfortable around dogs and can care for them when needed. That said, I naturally connect with cats and prefer working with them, so my services are focused on calm, low‑stress cat care. I work full‑time from home, which gives me a very steady routine and plenty of flexibility for pet care. I can easily step out for feedings, litter scooping, or home check‑ins throughout the day. I build visits around your pet’s normal schedule so they stay comfortable and relaxed. Evenings and weekends are usually open, so I’m able to give consistent attention and keep your pet’s routine running smoothly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress‑free as possible. I handle feeding, fresh water, litter scooping, and any medications exactly the way you outline. I spend quiet time with your cat so they feel comfortable, whether that means playtime, brushing, or simply sitting nearby while they warm up on their own terms. I can also collect mail or some small house stuff as needed!

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 Drayton Plains. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Drayton Plains after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

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 .

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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 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 Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
