About: As an animal lover, I’ve watched my friends cats & dogs while they’re out of town. My favorite part of watching them is taking them on walks along with giving them lots of cuddles & play time. I currently work as an esthetician & artist who creates my own schedule based off of appointments & gigs. My career is flexible & allows me to care for animals most time of the day & week! In my own home, I make sure my cats receive playtime, attention, pets & cuddles. Within a clients home, I’d make sure to understand each individuals animals needs and how they are typically cared for. This is vital to me, so the animals are able to maintain their same routine & schedule alongside receiving the care & playtime they deserve.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends for as long as I can remember. I love going on walks and seeing new parts of the city and would love to have a companion on my adventures. Our family dog passed a little over a year ago and I miss having a pet in my life. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I am currently on summer break from work and would love to take care of your pet in my free time. My schedule is fairly open and flexible. I have a fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood and own a crate if needed for their comfort. I foster dogs so I have raised food and water dishes, a bed, and other essentials to make their stay comfortable.
“I really like wolf. I have used them twice . So kind . Thanks for loving my dog and being so nice to her when I am busy at work caring for patients . You take a huge weight off my back : knowing my best friend Storm is being well cared for.”
“Siri is great! We did a meet and greet ahead of time and from the moment my dog met her, it was easy to see she understands and cares for animals. My dog can be shy with new people, but Siri has this calm confidence, and they connected immediately. Every walk was on time, with detailed updates and photos that gave me peace of mind knowing he was getting good care and happy. It’s good day when you find someone who treats your pet like their own, Siri is one of those special people. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and competent person to care for your pet.”
“Alison has been very reliable and responsive. She’s been walking our new puppy for the last couple weeks to help us get her out of the crate during our work day so she isn’t in there more than 4hrs. Puppy dealing with some pretty bad stomach issues and Alison very helpful with this as far as checking in with worried pup mom and offering more water/different options when pup not up for a walk. She’s been wonderful and we’re very grateful. Will continue to use her services as long as we can and are in a situation where work schedule forces pup into crate for too many hours.”
“I could tell from the pictures that my Aussie, who can be a little nervous and tentative with new people, was comfortable and happy with Eric. I recommend his services 100%!”
“Libby is a great sitter! She takes my dog on neighborhood walks or if time and weather permit, adventures to a nearby walking path. She's easy to communicate with and has made me feel at ease while I'm at work! Thanks, libby”
About: I have always had pets my whole life growing up. I had a German Shepherd growing up, and just a few years ago I adopted my rescue Chow Chow, Bear I’m a part time employee as a nurse aide and a full time nursing student! I work 2 12 hour shifts a week and go to school 2 days a week currently. I am available on all other days! I make sure pets are well taken care of, comfortable, fed, and well exercised if need be. I will make sure to keep areas clean and tidy.
About: I had my own rescue dog (Miss Bean) for 10 years before she passed away earlier this year. As a prior dog owner, I am well-positioned to take care of small and medium-sized dogs who need some extra care during the day. I am working full time, so most of my services will be on weekends or in the evening. Not having a dog of my own allows me to work around your pup’s needs. I am super organized and follow directions well - you know your dogs best as their parent and I will honor your wishes/preferences, all while giving your pup the pets and love they deserve. I do not have a dog of my own since Beans passing, so your dog will have my full attention.
About: I have taken care of many kinds of animals from guinea pigs to hedge hogs and naturally cats and dogs. I have been an unofficial pet sitter for friends and work colleagues for the past 6 years. I’m recently retired with no pets but I would really like to get my “pet fix” by helping to care for your pet(s). I’ll happily care for your cats and dogs by giving them what they need: food, water, treats, and lots of love and attention while you are gone. I’m recently retired and looking for a way to give back or help others. I’m also unable to have pets in my home due to unforeseen circumstances. So, I would enjoy spending time helping you while I’m enjoying your beloved pet. I have flexibility with scheduling. I can take your dog for walk and feed them when needed. I’m available for watching your pet over the weekend at your place of residence. I can spend time walking and giving the needed attention your beloved pet needs. I given medicine to many dogs and can put your animal back in its crate when needed. I prefer to provide care at your residence. I have references available.
“Danyul is hands down the best person we’ve ever worked with to care for our dogs. He was reliable, professional, and incredibly easy to coordinate with. Communication was always clear and timely, and he consistently showed up exactly when he said he would, which made scheduling simple and stress-free. What really stood out was how much he genuinely cared about the dogs. He took the time to understand their personalities and energy levels and handled them with calm confidence and patience. We have two high energy shepherds, and he did an outstanding job with them this past week, making sure they got plenty of exercise and attention. It was a huge relief knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We completely trust Danyul and will absolutely continue booking with him. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and experienced to care for their dogs.”
“Very accommodating when I needed to cancel day of because one of my dogs started to get sick the night before. Also went above and beyond to come over early before I needed to get to work to show me how a gentle-lead works and see how my dog would react to having it on.”
About: My experience goes back to being the go-to walker for our family dog as a kid to minding my cat today. It’s not unusual for me to meet a dog or cat and become acquainted in minutes I work from home with a flexible schedule. Therefore, I can be on-call at various times. I’m also used to fitting pet care for my cat into my daily routine. I make sure to follow all instructions laid out by the pet parent and get clarification wherever necessary, as well as communicate any issues that may arise.
“My jack russell, Polly, had a wonderful time with Jay! He was a great communicator, took lots of pictures for me, and overall took great care of my crazy pup! Thanks so much Jay! I would absolutely recommend him to others!”
About: Although I currently have two pets of my own, I can’t get enough of animals. Therefore, spending time with other pets warms my heart endlessly. I have two cats that require lots of attention and love. They have separate feeding times and amounts, have multiple litter boxes, and need frequent brushings. One cat has urinary tract issues and sometimes has accidents that have to be cleaned up multiple times a day. They also enjoy being chased as a form of exercise, as well as “hunting” for their toys. My one cat is allowed outside only if he is being held or is in his harness. The other cat does not go outside. I live very close to a road so I do not like the idea of letting my cats out on their own.

Dan is awesome! My GSD grew to love him really quickly. He handles her on walks with no problem and always makes sure she gets plenty of attention and exercise. He’s also very responsive and does his best to fit us into his schedule. The detailed Rover cards he sends after each walk are a great bonus too! 🐾

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

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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
