“Kaity’s was very friendly and responsive and took the time to make sure she was a good fit for our two dogs, especially with our new puppy. It’s very obvious that she loves dogs and is very knowledgeable. They had a great walk with Katie and she even gave me some pointers on helping our puppy as she learned the ropes.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life! Growing up, I had a Greyhound, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also spent years pet sitting for friends and family, caring for both small and large dogs. We currently have a dog of our own, a loving mix breed we rescued in 2021. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. Im a full time work from home mom with a flexible schedule. I am available primarily Monday through Friday but can also open my availability throughout the weekends if needed. We have a small not fenced in backyard. Our loving 5 year old mix breed pup loves walks and is always happy for extra company on our daily trips around the neighborhood. All animals are treated like family and are given limitless love. I have a 2 year old who loves all the puppy cuddles but understands boundaries.
About: Hello! I'm a marketing professional who works from home and things can get quite dull and lonely here. I've always loved animals and would love to break up my day by spending time with your pets. I majored in animal science and worked as a veterinary nurse for a year. I also have experience working in a dog grooming salon. I've been around all types of animals since I was young. I currently volunteer at Last Chance Ranch! My job is fairly flexible and I'm able to step out for walk or petting breaks! I can also bring my laptop and work from your home. I try to stick to routines to keep them happy and comfortable. I make sure to go over any preferences and limitations beforehand and treat them like my own.
“Rebecca was our routine dog walker for almost 2 years, walking Rosie in the morning and afternoon a few days a week. She is wonderful -- dedicated, flexible, and a good communicator. I highly recommend her.”
“Ian is fantastic! Lovely, kind, responsive, and thoughtful. It such a relief knowing my Elsie is in good hands during the day and even in spontaneous emergencies. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Morgan is amazing! You can tell just how much she loves and cares about animals! She was very prompt in response time and did a great job with my pup! She kept me updated the whole time and provided lots of pictures! If you are looking for a reliable sitter Morgan is definitely a great candidate🐾”
“I can’t recommend Simone enough! She put me at ease while I was working a 24-hour shift at the hospital, with great communication about how she and Calvin were getting along. Calvin can be nervous around people new to him, but Simone was great with him and allowed him to warm up to her at his speed :) I look forward to having Simone watch Calvin much more this winter. She even managed to capture sweet photos of Calvin; he’s never as photogenic for me! ☺️. Thank you Simone for taking such great care of my main squeeze.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from small to big and unfriendly dogs. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility previously for about a year and I have been pet sitting for almost 3 years now. I currently have my own clients so I make my own schedule. I rearrange my schedule to fit all the animals in that I have for the day. This way I spend the most time with your pet. In a clients home, I always listen to what the client says. If the dog must be on a leash to go outside, then it will or if the dog must be caged at night. The owner knows their animal better.

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 Elephant. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
