About: I've had dogs my entire life, pet sit for my friend and neighbors, and have a ton of experience in this field. I won't get mad about pet behavior or be unkind. I'm as excited to be there as they will be! I am a college student so on my free days I can spend my time doing stuff I love and helping you with your pets who you love! I understand boundaries and the trust you would be giving me to take care of them in your home or even walk them. It's a lot of trust but I have experience and know where I stand in my work, I offer a no judgement service.

“Audrey is just amazing! She’s been walking my dog for 3 months and CoCo absolutely loves her and is so excited to see her. She waits for her by the window and runs to the door when Audrey shows up. I haven’t even needed Audrey except for a couple times - but I keep her regular twice a week because CoCo loves her so much. I’ve called Audrey a couple times at the last minute or to add an extra day and she always come through for me. I could not have met a more dependable, reliable, awesome, and trusted person to walk CoCo twice a week since moving here from OH! We love her and think she is great!”

About: What sets me apart is my pawsitive approach to pet care and my deep understanding of animal behavior, thanks to both hands-on experience and professional training. I’m a proud graduate of the Dog Grooming School of Pennsylvania, which not only sharpened my grooming skills but also taught me how to read canine body language, manage different temperaments, and create a calm, safe environment for pets of all ages. I specialize in puppy basics—like crate training, potty routines, and leash manners—as well as senior pet care, including medication reminders, slow strolls, and plenty of comfort-focused attention. I bring a lot of patience, love, and structure to every visit, ensuring your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet will always be surrounded by Pawsitive energy, gentle care, and a true love for animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and manage grooming clients on the side. This gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to play, snuggle, and care for your fur babies throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I’m able to give them the attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet becomes part of my day, not just part of my schedule. When caring for pets in my home, they become part of the pack! I have very friendly, playful pups who love making new friends, and we have about 1 acre of fully fenced-in yard for safe exploring and zoomies. There are doggie pools, toys, and lots of fun enrichment activities to keep your fur baby happy, active, and entertained. Inside, pets enjoy a cozy, stress-free environment with plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet like my own—whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or nap time, they’ll always feel safe and right at home. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and comfortable for them. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels happy, secure, and loved, no matter where they are!

About: I (Eren) have been a veterinary technician since 2023, working in a variety of settings including a clinic, shelter, and university research hospital caring for special-needs dogs. Through this experience, I’m comfortable with medical care, senior pets, administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and handling animals with unique behavioral needs. I’ve also had animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to exotics, so I understand how different every species (and every personality!) can be. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with shy or anxious animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My partner Luca is also part of our Rover profile and shares this same passion for animal care. We have multiple pets together and work as a team to provide attentive, reliable care. Luca previously worked at the same clinic I’m at as a receptionist and veterinary assistant, and now works in a science lab where he also helps care for lab animals. His experience makes him calm, capable, and very comfortable handling a wide range of animals. What sets us apart is that we combine professional veterinary experience with genuine, everyday love for animals. Between the two of us, your pets will always have attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. We currently have cats, ferrets, mice and 1 bearded dragon of our own, and we hold ourselves to the same high standard of care that we would want for them. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because animals have always been a huge part of our lives. I work full-time, but I schedule my Rover services around my work hours so that every visit gets my full attention. I’m typically available before or after work for drop-ins, walks, and evening check-ins, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. My partner Luca helps provide additional flexibility. He is a full-time student and works part-time in a lab, with a schedule that tends to stay consistent for longer periods. Because our schedules often complement each other, one of us is usually available when the other is not. This allows us to offer more consistent and reliable care throughout the day. Even with busy schedules, caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy and make time for, and we never take on more than we can fully commit to. We primarily care for pets in our clients’ homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. As a veterinary technician, safety is always my first priority. We follow your pet’s normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while also keeping an eye out for any early signs of stress or illness. We’re respectful of your home, trustworthy with your space, and committed to creating a calm, clean environment for your pets while you’re away. We provide regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing.

I am currently not working so I would be available from morning to night anytime, I would also be available to care for your pet when you are away. I tailor each visit to your pet’s specific needs, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or administering medication. I also engage in activities like walks or interactive play sessions to keep your pet physically and mentally stimulated.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have experience caring for pets with different routines and personalities, and I know how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a slower, cozy day, I’m happy to match their energy and routine. I’m dependable, patient, and will always care for your pets like they’re my own — plus you can expect plenty of photo updates along the way! I’m currently full time as a radiologic technologist with St. Luke’s. I normally work Tuesdays & Wednesdays 8-4p, Mondays & Thursdays 8-8p. If a Thursday or Monday is needed I could rearrange my schedule to accommodate if needed. Fridays I’m off and I’m available Saturday’s and Sundays when given enough notice. ☺️ When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I understand that pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, so I work to create a calm, safe, and positive experience while you’re away. I also make sure your home is treated respectfully and kept clean and secure. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I grew up in a household where we nursed animals back to health. From geese, to squirrels, to kittens. It’s in my blood to nurture and care for animals. I have a 9 year old cat, that I have been taking care of since I was 11, I also have experience with puppies starting at the young age of 2 months and raising them. My cat also has medical problems, so I am experienced in administrating medication to animals as well. I am currently studying psychology, and one way I wanted to go with it was animal psychology. I am more than just interested in the adorable faces and the love animals have to offer. I believe animals are intelligent creatures of life, who deserve the utmost respect and love. I will be able to provide you with a comforting experience with your animals.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Emerald

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,331 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Emerald. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Emerald. 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.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Emerald after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Emerald. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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 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.
