About: I absolutely love animals and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats! I enjoy making sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable. I also have experience administering insulin injections to cats, so I am comfortable providing extra care for pets with special medical needs. Having been retired for two years, I have the flexibility to spend quality time caring for your furry family members! I am happy to work with your schedule and accommodate your pets’ needs whenever possible. I prefer going to the client’s home, as I feel it is a more comfortable setting for both me and your pet. For dog sitting, my home does not have a fenced-in yard, so I would need to keep them on a leash when outside. That being said, I am happy to host pets at my home for shorter periods of time if needed. My goal is to provide reliable, loving, and attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away!

About: With over a decade of pet care experience, I specialize in feeding, walking, grooming, playing with and bathing dogs and cats. Recently, I’ve also expanded my skills to include nail trimming and grinding, ensuring my furry friends receive comprehensive and loving care. I currently work part time so I should be available often to provide care for your pets. Spending time at home allows me to offer plenty of care and attention to the family pets, so I can easily use that experience in caring for yours. Regrettably, I am unable to provide personal home sitting services at this time, as my pets exhibit reactive behavior and do not adapt well to unfamiliar animals in their environment. I appreciate your understanding in this matter. I am committed to ensuring your pet's happiness and well-being. I am more than willing to follow any routines you and your pet have established to maintain consistency. Your pet’s safety is my highest priority, and I will take all necessary measures to protect them at all times. Thank you for entrusting me with their care.

About: My whole live I have always had animals and/or was surrounded by them. I have taken care of families pets and homes since I was around 10 and have had my own pet care experience since I was around 6. Pets are family. And with me, they will be treated as such!

During my time with your pets, I will focus on keeping them active and using enrichment techniques when needed. If you have pets with a bit more anxiety, we can also relax at home.

About: When I was 8 my father surprised me with our first ever dog Harley! I fell in love instantly and am so grateful to have grown up with him in our family. When I grew older I took on more rolls taking care of Harley which gave me basic experience in pet care. When he was a senior dog I learned a lot through his medical issues like how to handle medicine and emergency vet visits. Our late dog, Dobby gave me puppy experience showing me how much time, care, and patience is needed for little pups. Anything you need for your dog I’m willing to do! Im a part time college student who also works part time as a server! This opportunity seems like something that could perfectly for my unusual schedule. Dog walking and quick house stop-ins would be my speciality! House sitting and at home sitting is something that would be most easiest if done with a notice in advance:) With the years of experience you can trust me with your home and your pets! I’m a college girl looking for an opportunity that benefits both parties, it’s just a bonus that I love animals! In my care, you and your pets have absolutely nothing to worry about.

About: I've always enjoyed being around animals, and caring for pets is something I take seriously. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I aim to follow your pet's routine, provide plenty of attention, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'll treat your pet with patience, kindness, and respect. I work full-time at QVC on an overnight schedule, so my availability varies throughout the week. I'm happy to coordinate with pet owners in advance to find times that work for both of us. I do my best to be dependable, communicate clearly, and make sure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in their homes, I will follow the owner's instructions and stick to their pet's usual routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for the way they're used to. I regularly take my own dog, Max, on walks and will make sure to follow each owner's preferences for walks and outdoor time.

“We have an old duffer, Bo, who is just a sweetheart. We have a youngster, Oreo, who is anxious, hyper and easily startled. Both boys love Tasha and the weekday walks with her. She makes sure to give a report each time and includes a picture or two. The boys are always happy in the photos. Tasha is conscious of the hot weather and how that affects Bo. She makes suggestions for alternate times and options to protect him. We highly recommend Tasha for any service. We have just loved knowing our boys are cared for and even loved.”

About: I have always loved dogs. I grew up with an English Golden Retriever and learned how to take care of him and give him medicine as he aged. A few years back I got a Border Collie and trained her. I taught her commands from sitting to closing a door to not eat anything off the ground. I love taking her on hikes and we recently completed an agility class together. I have walked dogs many times and would love to take care of yours! I'm currently working part-time, so I will have a lot of free time to walk your dog! Early mornings to mid day works best for me! I am available Monday-Thursday, and the occasional Saturday mornings. I am to able to create a safe and relaxing environment for your dogs. I am able to crate dogs and put up gates in the house to keep them safe at all times.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. Neighbors, friends, and relatives relied on me to feed, walk, bathe, and take care of their pets needs while they were away or at work. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and levels of need over the years. I love to engage with pets in whichever way they’re comfortable, wether it be snuggles or long walks, or both… I love to do it all! I can stick to whatever routine you have set or would like to have set for your pet, and strive to make each visit full of love and the best care (: I am a teacher and am currently able to do evening checks and walks for cats and dogs! Come summer I am able to be flexible all day! I make sure your dog is leashed or in a fenced in area when they go outside. I can crate your dog as well, if that is your preference.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members.

Whether your pet loves adventure, needs extra patience, or simply enjoys a consistent routine, I am committed to providing safe, compassionate, and reliable care while you're away. i’m currently working full time and have off on sundays and monday. On the days i work, i work 9-5:30 sometimes getting done earlier on occasion. I currently have a whole separate room to separate cats from my own.

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 Ephrata. 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 Ephrata 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.

  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
