“I had the pleasure of hiring Esther to provide walks for my two dogs. I could tell that she would be great just the way my dogs bonded with her right away. In fact, my Toby waited for her at the door every day and Riley spun around as he was so happy to see her. Esther was responsive (literally within minutes), thoughtful, and catered to my dogs’ needs. I would definitely hire her again 😍.”

“Drew is amazing! I had a hectic travel schedule with some last-minute changes, and Drew was incredibly accommodating and flexible through it all. He sent frequent photo updates of my girls, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I came home to very happy girls—I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

About: i've always been an avid animal lover, but it wasn't until i was about 12 years old when i was finally allowed to adopt my first dog, a doberman. it was then that i realized just how healing and special the unconditional love of a dog can really be. since then, i've gained much more experience with all types of dogs varying in size, energy level, and reactivity. neighbors and friends have relied on me for years to play, walk, and watch their animals when they weren't able. i'm full time with animal care so have an incredibly flexible availability and am happy to schedule last minute bookings! i love to be outside and to craft (crochet mostly) so there is a lot of opportunity for play time and/or cuddles depending on the dogs wants and needs. i live next to a really nice dog run and riverside park so plenty of outdoor activity near by. i have a beagle baby who is very chill, has plenty of toys to share (and couch space), and loves to make new friends!
About: I've had dogs my entire life, from a black lab to an airdale terrier to a peekapoo, and I am the go-to dog sitter for friends and family. These days I'm mom to Coach, my 5-year-old chihuahua mix, who is my whole world. I love all animals and treat every pup like my own—plenty of walks, playtime, and sticking to their usual routine. Comfortable with senior care, medication, and high-energy dogs alike. Your dog will get the same care I'd give my own! I work remotely so my schedule is very flexible. I have a very flexible weekday schedule, so midday walks, playtime, and drop-in check-ins are no problem. I'm also available for dog walking and house sitting most evenings and weekends. Your pup will have plenty of company and stick to their normal routine! Your pup's comfort comes first. I'm a dog mom myself—my chihuahua mix Coach is my whole world—so I know how it feels to leave them in someone else's hands. I'll keep to your routine exactly, follow your rules to the letter, and send plenty of photo updates so you're never wondering how they're doing. Walks are always on leash in safe areas, on your dog's favorite routes.

“Nicole is an absolute angel. I could not have met a kinder person. Benji took to her immediately and did wonderfully on his first walk. She made sure to even refill his water while I was out and played with him for a little. As a new dog mom, she really eased my anxiety with my new pup and I will absolutely be booking her again!”
About: Taking care of animals is my dream career since middle school and volunteer with animals all the time it’s my passion to care for animals Im part time student who loves animals and wants to become a vet tech as a career I have the time to offer to help. I have a dog of my own, who loves to go on long walks and spend time outdoors and play of course outside and with toys
About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Whether it was at my grandmothers house or down the street at the neighbors, I have always been the first one my loved ones call to feed, walk, and cuddle dogs, cats, and any other pet under the sun. I have been around animals my entire life, starting with frequently visiting & caring for my brothers dog when I was just 10 years old. I began pet sitting in middle school, and then this passion grew into my summers at college. I often watch my friends pets in the city when they’re away on trips & am now looking to expand my animal-loving world through Rover. I enjoy taking long walks through the parks, playing outside in the grass, discovering new games, balancing exercise with rest & treats, bathing & lots + lots of cuddles :) Currently I am working part time & remotely, so I have super open + flexible availability! Most of the work I do can be done on my own schedule, so I have plenty of time to make for your pet! Weekends are also generally a great time for me as well. I am happy to oblige to any house rules you may have for your furry friend! (ie on or off furniture, caging around bedtime, feeding/treat schedule etc.)
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I could remember! Once my pups found their forever home with me, I wanted to give them constant stimulation both physical or mental. This creates such a strong trusting bond; seeing you pup happy ends up making you happy! And cats are absolutely perfect! So gentle and free! Independent yet always wanting love and affection. As long as you don’t exceed their kitty minutes/little limit, alls well! Working with animals in general gives me a sense of fulfillment and joy, making sure these innocent vessels continue their innocent journey in the happiest way possible. Can’t wait to experience the joy with your furry companion! Pet care is just something that has been embedded in me and a daily part of my everyday life. From my pups to those of my friends, extended family and people I meet on my walks! I cannot care for pets in my own home however when pet sitting in someone’s home, I can create the same structural environment that the pet parent creates for their fur baby. Making sure their pet is secured and safe and comfortable at all times.
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet senior dog for all of his nearly 18 years. I fully understand that seniors need a little extra love and attention 🩵 I’ve also been the default dog and cat sitter for friends when they have needed it. I have experience giving medicine and eye drops for dogs. I’m also happy to learn any other medical care needs if needed! My little guy passed recently, so I’m just here to give your fur babies some love while you are away 🩵 I work from home, so I’m pretty flexible and can take breaks midday to walk and play. I’m available for boarding most work days and weekends. I live on a quiet street that is great for walks, and there is also an open yard for quick potty breaks. I have no other pets in the home and only take one client at a time, so your pets will have my full attention!
“Jamie was amazing! He was easygoing, communicated clearly from the very beginning, and made the entire experience stress-free. I felt completely comfortable and confident leaving Mr. Lucky in his care. He kept me updated with photos throughout the stay, and seeing how happy and relaxed Mr. Lucky looked gave me so much peace of mind. I would absolutely trust Jamie with Mr. Lucky again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
About: I am responsible, I have a brilliant time for dogs, I have a real love for animals and care for them as if they where my own. I am an early bird and flexible, so if you need a walker for the dogs first walk in the morning, I go beyond the call of duty to make sure the job is done. I do not have space to take care of a pet in my home for right now but I can pet sit at your home if its needed.

We needed a sitter at the last minute and couldn't have been luckier to find Phil! Every visit came with a thoughtful update, so we always knew Parker was happy, well fed, and getting plenty of exercise and attention. Parker also needed medication, and Phil gave it reliably every time, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear Parker was in caring, dependable hands. We'll definitely be booking Phil again and highly recommend him!
Warm, friendly and responsive to my dog. My velcro dog, who hasn't been on a walk without me since her adoption in June immediately felt comfortable with Christina and was willing to go out without me. She came home happy and tired. Christina told me about the walk and used good judgment in choosing where to walk, when to encourage Muffin to walk further and when Muffin really wanted to go home. I've hired her again.
Nicole is an absolute angel. I could not have met a kinder person. Benji took to her immediately and did wonderfully on his first walk. She made sure to even refill his water while I was out and played with him for a little. As a new dog mom, she really eased my anxiety with my new pup and I will absolutely be booking her again!
Drew is fantastic! He’s so responsive. I just started a new job and my schedule has been wacky. Drew’s been incredibly patient and flexible in scheduling walking with my pup, Duke. It’s been a huge relief to have someone trustworthy taking care of midday walks when I’m out of the house.

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.
