“It was my first time booking the Dog Walking service, and Shontaeia was amazing! 😍 She sent me a very detailed summary of the walk and lots of photos, and every comment about Jullie made me laugh because I thought: “That’s so true!!” 😂 Her attention and care were much more than I expected. I really recommend her, and I will definitely book again whenever I need! Thank you very much, Shontaeia! 💛”
About: Hi, I am Lukas. I am an experienced and CPR-certified pet sitter who has been caring for animals since 2005. I grew up fostering kittens and walking neighborhood dogs. My favorite, most-read book was "The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Dogs, Dog Breeds & Dog Care" by Larkin et al. I also spent years patiently befriending stray cats, raccoons, and one opossum by sitting quietly with them until they felt safe enough to approach. That early experience shaped how I care for animals today. I let each pet show me who they are, and I match my approach to their individual needs. Over the years, I have cared for cats, dogs, goats, and rabbits. I have worked with senior pets and kittens. I have supported animals who feel anxious or reactive. I have managed medication regimens and cared for households with multiple pets. Beginning in 2025, I finally started offering paid dog sitting and house sitting for friends for stays up to two weeks. My goal is always to create a calm and predictable environment where animals can relax while their people are away. When I care for dogs, I use a structured routine that includes feeding, potty breaks, positive reinforcement, and enriching activities to help them feel settled. I only walk one dog at a time, and I only walk dogs that I know. For safety, I require that the dog be leash-trained and wear a dedicated walking collar or harness that will not choke if they pull. With cats and other quiet companions, I rely on gentleness, patience, and observation. I never force physical contact. If they want affection, I am happy to offer it. If they prefer space, I honor that and let them approach me on their own terms. Even very shy cats often warm up to me because I do not rush them. Communication matters to me. You will receive photos of your pets when I arrive and when I leave. I also send extra pictures or videos when your pet does something sweet or interesting. Being away from a beloved animal can be stressful, and I want you to feel connected and reassured. Pets are family members, and each one has a unique personality and way of moving through the world. My goal is to support that individuality and help each pet live comfortably and confidently while you are gone. I want you to feel completely certain that your animals are safe and cared for with genuine warmth and professionalism. IMPORTANT NOTE: All pets must have up-to-date vaccinations, be spayed/neutered, and show no symptoms of communicable diseases (Parvo, kennel cough, etc.). I work part-time as a barista, and I am an online student. I will request internet access in your home if I'm staying for longer than half an hour, so I can tackle some schoolwork if my calendar schedule is particularly full. I get my work schedule for the week every Sunday night, so I usually respond to requests on Mondays. But I'm flexible. If you have a question, let's chat. Important note: Potty breaks aren't just for pets! I may need to use your bathroom. Please leave it unlocked. I do not offer boarding at this time, which means I'll be caring for pets in your home. If you decide to book with me, I'll have you fill out a document with information on your pets' particular needs and routines (medications, potty frequency, dietary restrictions, etc).
“First time using a dog walker but Caitlyn made it easy. Very professional and prompt, and my pup was always excited to see her. Will definitely keep her in mind if the need arises again.”
About: I have had a dog ever since I can remember and I am 69 yrs old. I have TIME and am reliable, because I am retired. I made sure my kids grew up with a dog and now they have my grand dogs which I love to babysit. I lost my last dog (he was 14) in 2018 and I knew I was going to retire (and travel) in 2021 so now I have my grand dogs and all my friends dogs to babysit and get my fix. I also have volunteered for Rescue4All rescue since I retired. I have a medium sized doggie door out to a wonderful patio and yard fully fenced with 6 ft high vinyl fence. I love dogs so much. They are just the most loving, gentle, and FUN animals put on this earth. I am a walker, so all dogs that stay at my house get walked everyday, with a ton of love and affection. I am going to start Rover on Jan. 2026!!!! I am retired, so I would love to walk your dogs during the day for you. (I am a daily walker anyway :) so why not?) If they stay with me, my home is perfect with a fenced yard, medium sized doggie door (but I do love and will have larger dogs too) and they will get a lot of love and attention. While I prefer crate trained dogs, it does not mean they would be in their crate during the day unless you say it is needed if I leave the house. If not crate trained I would be okay if they are a very well trained dog :) My home is just me, so dogs will get that one on one attention. I am retired so I can accommodate any feeding/walking schedules that are needed.
About: I’ve had dogs since I turned 18, I started with two loving boxers named Beauty and Biggie who I recently lost due to cancer. I currently have three dogs who enjoy group walks and summer hikes! I have a boxer, blue heeler mix, and a chug. I sit a few friends dogs and have experience taking care of all types of dogs. I currently work FT and am able to sit during the weekend on my days off. I am able to break free for lunch to play and feed my dogs. We also go on longs walks in the evening to cap the night. I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs. My blue heeler plays hard to get but is a great play mate once she gets warmed up.
“Paige was available for a last minute walk for our pup and we are so grateful! She gave him a great walk and played with him, and sent lots of great pictures of their time together. Paige is timely and responsible, and we are so grateful!”
About: I have dog sat for the same families for years and love taking fun walks and cuddles with furry friends! Experience with senior dogs and their medications, as well as cats too!! I am a nursing student in Spokane with a busier schedule on Thursdays and Fridays, though I have time to see my furry friends! Relatively flexible on weekends. Feel free to message me if you have any other questions! I am very good with doggy and kitty directions and love to take dogs on at least 2 walks a day and make sure to play with the cat friends! Happy to keep up with any training or specific house rules.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and taken care of many ranging from cats to dogs and even horses and other farm animals. I can promise your pets will get the attention they need and deserve!! Im currently a college student with in-person class for 2 hours in the mornings which leaves me pretty flexible! Let’s connect and find a way my services can fit with your schedule! My pets are well taken care of. They get plenty of time outside to get their energy out and receive lots of attention to make sure they’re happy and healthy. When housesitting other pets, I’m able to follow their daily schedules so that their needs are met as well.
About: I am Suzy I grew up on a farm in a small town. I just retired from being a private hospice caregiver. I have experience with dogs, cats, cows, pigs, goats and horses. I have had my own dogs and cats and started helping more with pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family. I have an alternative medicine degree and it has helped me not only in my personal life but also with my animals lives. I am good with dogs and cats that have high energy and separation anxiety. I am loving being retired and building my pet sitting business that revolves around cuddles with cats and dogs. I started doing this because I have 3 grand pups and 1 grand cat along with 1 human grand daughter and it has brought me peace and happiness. I was lost on what I wanted to do with this part of my life. I immensely enjoy pet sitting and meeting new pet owners and pets. I am not in a position to have pets at my home. However in your home I am there to help your animal not feel alone by giving them the attention they need or what you have requested.
“Bethany is a great walker! Our little guy is still a puppy but she was very patient with him pulling and being a little jumpy. We will be sure to use her again!”
About: I've been taking care of all kinds of animals my whole life. In addition to being able to take care of cats and dogs, I can also take care of animals like guinea pigs and hamsters. I currently work as a server which is only 4 hour shifts so I spend a majority of my time at home with all of my fur babies. So I have a pretty open schedule. I can feed, water, walk, play with, clean up after (inside and outside), potty, administer medication, crate, etc. I am willing to help in anyway possible all you have to do is ask!
“Charlotte was able to accommodate a last minute request to walk my pup, Arlo, which was beyond helpful! Great communication, and she was really good with him. We’ll absolutely request more walks with her in the future!”
“Melisa was kind and professional! My dog is often timid and had refused to go out for a walk when I am gone before but Melissa handled it like a champ, was patient and kind, and was able to coax him out of the house. Thank you Melissa!”
East Central dog parents share their Rover experiences
We hired Brittany to walk my mom‘s dog a couple of times a day has my mom was moving into an assisted living facility. She has been so accommodating and caring and shows up exactly when she says she is going to and always greets my mom with a happy smile and positive attitude. She has gone above and beyond for us and we can’t say enough nice things about her and I would highly recommend her for all of your pets needs!
Halle is wonderful with our dogs and so professional! She was always on time and sent plenty of updates of my happy dogs on their afternoon walk! Having her help us out during the week has been such a stress reliever knowing my dogs are happy and getting the exercise they need. Would absolutely recommend Halle to anyone for dog walking and any care your pets need 🐾
Rachel was wonderful with our doggie Shadow. She came by to meet us first, get familiar with our property, dog, and us. She was always on time, took our dog for long walks in Lincoln Park where he loves going and kept us informed on exact timing, and progress. We will be hiring Rachel to walk our dog through Lincoln park again.
Sarah has been wonderful to work with. She was highly attentive to my pup’s needs and took extra time to make him feel comfortable around her. Sarah communicates clearly and will put your mind at ease by keeping you in the loop. When you book with Sarah, you can rest assured your fur babies are in excellent hands!
Natalee is very responsive and flexible with scheduling. We have a large, stubborn Great Pyrenees mix and he often has his own ideas about what a walk should consist of, and of dogs he doesn’t like, but Natalee does great with him. I knew our dog really liked her when he asked her for belly rubs!
