About: Looking for a reliable, adaptable friend to visit your dog midday? I've got you! And I'd love to meet your dog! My dog passed away in 2021 and I've been looking for opportunities to make some new furry friends ever since! I've played and walked and taken care of many dogs of many breeds and sizes at various levels of training. If you have specific training or behavioral goals for your dog, I will be sure to incorporate that into my visits. Currently, I work at my full-time job from 3:30am-noon and can be available as soon as 12:30pm or as soon as it takes me to travel to your pet's location. I am very flexible when it comes to the specifics in how you and your pet would like our visits to work! We could go for walks on a specific path, play to exercise and deplete built up energy, or simply run around in the fenced-in backyard for potty time.
“Melanie was an excellent dog-walker! Incredibly reliable and communicative. She did a great job taking care of my dog, Theo, and I will absolutely be booking her in the future!”
“Teffni is so sweet and communicative, and she had to deal with a lot: my dog not wanting to walk in the rain and the front desk attendant giving her a hard time. Really appreciated her help.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life. I’ve had all kinds of animals, from tiny dogs to big dogs, from social cats to the prickly don’t get too close to me types! I absolutely love animals and have been a vegetarian for 8 years. I currently have two dogs of my own, and often take care of my family’s senior dog (going strong at 16 due to the loving care!) I love going on long walks as well. I’m currently on summer break from teaching so I have a lot of free time on my hands to care for your furry or scaly friends and family! When the school year begins late August my schedule will be more limited to evenings and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I’ll always follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household rules. I understand that every pet is different; some love attention, while others need space—and I’ll respect what makes them feel most comfortable. I’m happy to provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet feels secure and cared for until you return. I am also okay with crating if need be!
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Angela! I booked her last minute on a Friday because my cousin’s family and I were going away to a wedding, and we needed urgent care for our pets. She responded so quickly, was incredibly understanding of the situation, and immediately put my mind at ease. Throughout the weekend she sent constant updates and pictures, which meant the world to us. She even stepped in to care for another pet I added last minute—without hesitation—and did it all with such care and professionalism. Truly, I could not have asked for anyone better. If you put your pets in her hands, you can trust they will be loved, safe, and so well taken care of. She was amazing, and I am beyond thankful for her help. I would absolutely love to book with her again in the future.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including puppies who require consistency, supervision, and reinforcement of basic training routines.

Every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their preferences, habits, and any special requirements so they receive personalized care and feel like part of the family while they're with me. 🐾❤️
“Melika is very communicative and does a fantastic job. I’m very pleased with the work she does and the loving way she cares for Loki. I hope I get to use her services frequently.”
About: I used to be a manager at a dog shelter which I absolutely loved before moving to a new state. I’ve also grown up on a farm and handled all types of pets from goats, pigs, cows to dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I believe every animal deserves to be treated as family not just a pet. I am always home until 3pm when I leave for work, but when I am not home my partner is home. Someone will always be there to take care of your furry or scaly family and will never be left without someone even for a second. They will be welcomed with love, play, and kindness in my home. We will ensure nothing is around that will harm the animal whether it is cables, shoes, food, etc. we will always be around to ensure your pet is taken care of and in good health.
“We've had to be away from home for long days for several weeks, and Anibal has been checking in on our dog twice/day almost every day. He is absolutely reliable, communicates extremely well & has been a real lifesaver during these times we've needed someone to keep an eye on our sweet dog.”
“Amanda was great! We have a small, super friendly but high energy dog that will not sleep through the night unless she’s had enough exercise. Inanna slept through the night after just one 30 minute walk with Amanda. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Forest Glen
Jana was amazing! She was very patient and understanding, even when we forgot to leave the key for her to access Bella (completely our fault!). We really appreciated her flexibility and kindness. Bella was happy, got plenty of treats, and was clearly well cared for. We would definitely book Jana again. Thank you!
Concetta is terrific with my dog Riley, and she’s very responsive and great at communicating. She also asked many detailed questions about Riley that demonstrates how much she knows about dogs and her conscientious about taking care of them and ensuring that they’re comfortable.
Katherine does an excellent job with Otto. He is a very spirited pup and doesn’t always have the best walking etiquette (we’re working on it!) and Katherine handles it beautifully. He always excited to see her and it’s clear he feels safe with her. Katherine is also punctual, dependable and personable.

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

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , 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.

- 96% 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 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.
