About: Several years of dog sitting experience. Comfortable with walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. Timely, diligent feedings and care instructions followed accurately to ensure the best care. I’m available for boarding and drop ins during evenings and weekends. I am also available for extended drop ins. I have reliable transportation, so can travel further to do drop ins. I care for pets by giving them the attention that they need. I ensure that their needs are met and that they are safe, and comfortable. This includes maintaining feeding and walking schedules.
“Bill is an exceptional dog walker! He took such amazing care of my Cooper. First, he was so accommodating and flexible by walking my Cooper for 1.5 hours every day when no other dog walker offered more than 1-hour walks. Second, he sent me daily pictures of their walks, taking Cooper to parks and his favorite local spots, sending me a daily rover report card. If that wasn't enough, Bill had a procedure on his hand one day, and he still showed up for his walk with Cooper. I was okay with him skipping one day, but his response was "I'm committed to walking Cooper." I was beyond impressed, and I knew what an animal lover Bill is. Most importantly, Cooper absolutely adored him. He wouldn't even get out of bed until he arrived. Seeing their pictures together made me a little jealous, but I was so happy to see how happy he made my Cooper. Bill is a true animal lover and has a huge heart which was very important to me. I didn't want someone to just come and walk my dog. I wanted someone who would be a loving companion for Cooper, and he definitely was loved by Cooper. I highly recommend Bill for all of your animal care needs. I'm sure my Cooper misses him too. Thank you, Bill for taking such exceptional care of my family. You make such a positive difference with what you do!”

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 Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
