“Brittany was highly professional and so excited to walk my dog. Duchess was so tuckered out after she promptly laid down for a nap! 10/10 would highly recommend. Will definitely use her again!”
“Izzy is a reliable and thorough dog walker. She makes sure our Lincoln is taken care of well and has a fun mid-day break. We notice he is wiped out when we get home from work. We are so grateful for her prompt photos and updates each day - leaves us with zero worries that he’s in good hands!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals. I grew up on a farm, surrounded by dogs and all sorts of farm animals. You can count on me to give your pet the affection, comfort, and attentive care they need while you're away.

My top priority is your pet’s safety and we’ll-being. Please share everything I need to know about them to ensure they are safe and happy. I want them to feel loved and well- cared for as you are away. I make an effort to follow your regular schedule, including potty breaks, play times, and meals. Ensuring they have clean water and enough food. My goal is to ensure your dog(s) feels safe and comfortable in their environment(s).
About: I had my first pet sitting experience when I was 13 years old, not including the family pet. I have cared for animals of all shapes and sizes since then. I love working with animals and learning about their personalities. I am okay with reactive animals and have worked with different ones. I am willing to work with your animal's needs in any way, including medication and certain training exercises that you request. I do not work a job at this time, but I fill my time with odd jobs for others while I wait for college to start back up in the fall! I like to stay busy and do anything from pet care, to shopping for others, to day care for family members! With that being said, my schedule is pretty flexible, especially with advanced notice! I will follow any instructions given and am always ready to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of. I will do whatever your pet needs to stay happy and healthy.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats, during all the stages of their lives, for many years. I've had dogs of various breeds with serious health conditions that required nearly constant monitoring, complex medication management, and frequent vet involvement. I have taken care of puppies and kittens, senior dogs and cats, and pets at all stages in between. Providing loving care for pets has been a major focus of my life for as long as I can remember. I'm currently a stay at home dog mom, so pet care pretty much is my routine! And since my husband works from home, I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your furry poopsies too 😊 I have two young adult standard poodles and a mini poodle puppy. They, like all of our dogs before them, live in our house as members of our family. They are crate trained and know basic commands for safety, but when they're not playing outside or on a walk, they can mostly be found lounging on couches or beds (mostly ours, sometimes theirs). I've also been a dedicated sitter for my sister's cats for almost 20 years. I've cared for kittens to seniors in that time, and seen to all their needs.

About: Hi there! I'm Kearyn, I am currently a physical therapy student on clinical rotations and I would love to spend my time outside of the clinic caring for your fur baby! I am dedicated and passionate dog walker and cat/dog sitter with 16 years of experience taking care of pets of all ages while making tails wag and cats purr! Whether it's a brisk walk in the park, a play session in the backyard, or some tender loving care while you're away, I've got it covered. I will make sure that your pets will enjoy personalized attention, plenty of exercise, and lots of love while you are at work or away. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I’m currently a full time grad student currently on clinical rotations. I am available for weekend getaways as well as after work walks.

As an active person, I have the energy and enthusiasm to ensure your pets receive the exercise and attention they need. I’m happy to walk, play, or just sit with them to keep them company while you’re away.
“Becky is the absolute best. She took care of my dog 100% and was very helpful and understanding. She was very responsive after the walks and how Buster did on the walks. I will use her again.”
“We’ve used Sarah twice now for dog walking Maxwell. She’s been very accommodating with coming when we needed her to so Maxwell doesn’t go too long without a walk. We’ve gotten pictures and reports on how it went. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry family member.”

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 Ellis. 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.
