About: I have professional dog care experience from working at Hounds Town, where I managed dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels in safe group and individual settings. I’m also Dog Management Level 2 certified, with training in dog behavior, handling, and safety. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m used to planning my schedule around dogs’ needs like walks, feeding, playtime, and consistent attention from my experience at Hounds Town. I also have a rescue dog of my own who requires extra patience and understanding, so I’m very comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or nervous dogs who may require more time to become comfortable. Providing calm, attentive, and reliable care is something I truly enjoy and prioritize every day. For drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and quality time with play or affection based on their personality. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. During walks, I prioritize safety with secure leash handling and awareness of our surroundings. I adjust each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. Whether that’s an active walk or a relaxed stroll with time to sniff. I also send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and in good hands.

Kate was great! Came the night before to meet our new puppy and worked with me to rebook as I realized I booked the wrong date. Kate took good care of our puppy, sharing pictures along the way. Will look to retire in the future. Thanks Kate!

About: Hello, my name is Jennifer! I have been taking care of dogs and other small animals since I was a child. I had a couple dogs of my own, I have also taken care of bunnies, chinchillas, rats, and cats! I recently got my own dog who I love with all my heart! She is an 11 year old beagle named Matilda. I am very comfortable taking care of senior dogs, or helping out with any of your dogs medical needs. I promise to take care of and love your animal like they are my own 💗 Rover is currently my only employment. I have a lot of time available to walk, check in, or board certain animals. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your animal. I promise to take care of & love your animal like they are my own 💗 For House Sitting Requests, I am available to stay during the day, and some of the evening, but unfortunately not overnights. I currently do not have an entirely fenced in yard, however I do have ample side walk space and a nice park across from my home where I walk my own dog on leash regualrly. I have a small home that I keep tidy and pet friendly - perfect for if you're looking for someone to board your small/medium sized dog for the weekend or longer.

About: I grew up with dogs, so I am pretty comfortable around them. My services for dogs is mainly taking out for walks and feeding them when you're unavailable. Not much luck in the job department as of late, so I'd rather do something to keep active and make a little something from it. The reward is getting to meet your pets and knowing that I am helpful in the time of need. I am available on weekdays anytime after 8am. I will do as the future client suggests when it comes to caring and feeding their pet. I will treat their pets as if they were my own.

Ian is great with our girls. They have nothing but smiles after every walk with him and he is always so helpful when we find ourselves in a pinch, from giving the girls another walk when we where stuck at the airport to even learning how to feed our bearded dragons for when we go on vacation. We are very very happy with Ian and will continue to book with him for sure.

I appreciate her knowledge around dog body language and was grateful for all of the questions she asked to get to know Beau beforehand. I would highly recommend her and look forward to having her assist in the future!

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Forest dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Forest.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
