About: I've frequently house- and pet-sat for family friends and their three dogs. I love taking care of your animals as if they were my own! Also, I love taking and sending photos, so you will feel confident that your furry friend is happy and healthy! I have experience fostering dogs and cats of all ages and administering medication when needed. I am a teacher, so I currently have all weekdays free this summer. I'm a new teacher, so I currently have free time on weekdays and weekends. I'm in school for teaching, so if I'm house-sitting, I may need to step out for about 2 hours for school, but otherwise I'll be with your pet. I dedicate as much time as possible to your pet to ensure they are comfortable and well cared for. I am flexible and will adjust to meet your needs! During the school year, I can come in the afternoons, holidays, and weekends. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I will follow your rules or steps so you can feel confident that they are getting what they need. I’ll send many pictures so you can see your fur baby!
About: I have about 3 years of experience when it comes to caring for dogs, and although my experience with animals is limited my love them has always been strong. I am currently working full time ,so I’ll only be available for drop-ins and walks. I am currently available Monday through Thursday from 5pm-10pm and Saturday and Sunday from 6am to 3pm. Although I don’t get a lot of time with your fur baby, all instructions and care routine will be followed as to not stress them out. Any messes made while in my care will be cleaned immediately. I will also make sure everyone is in there respectful area whether that be in a crate or a specific room/area.
About: I have had cats and dogs all my life that have and are living great long and fulfilling lives. I treat animals well with great care and respect and even had the opportunity to nurse a baby squirrel back to health I’m working part-time and will be visiting your little family member and be able to give them one on one attention give them walks feed them and an occasional treat and play. I understand what it’s like to have a hyper lazy or in between dog so I can handle any situation and treat them as I would my own with love care and respect. I like to set a very comfortable environment for an animal I’m working with to get them to understand that I’m a friend and someone who is here to care so I like to set those boundaries and understanding of what makes them comfortable and listen to their body language. I like to build trust in my relationships with positive enforcement and trust.
About: **Please note I am disabled and hard of hearing. I will always prefer texts over phone calls. **Check out what your babies get up to and the pictures/videos I didn’t end up sending on our Facebook or Instagram page, Zig Zag Wag pet care! I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, horses and livestock, rodents and reptiles, and everything from basic grooming including nail trims and baths to basic behavior training. (See safety section for further details) I have experience with basic first aid. I have pretty much free and short notice availability, thought I limit bookings on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS as my days off. I have a whole zoo worth of pets and need to stop by my own house throughout the day, so any house sitting will be based on regular visits. I have reliable transportation and excellent driving skills in case of needing to transport. My vehicle has a crash tested seat belt and I have a few crash tested harnesses if you do not have one, though providing your own sized for your dog is preferred. I will not provide transport for animals other than cats or dogs and cats and small dogs must be tolerant of being crated for the ride. I am great at working with your schedule with at least 2 hours notice, but Rover does not allow easy schedule changes. If you need to reduce your visits, CANCEL the booking and REBOOK with your new dates, as once Rover confirms your booking it won’t let you reduce the current rate. In your home, I offer basic cleaning services and can ensure any messes get cleaned. I can meet many varied needs and am meticulous with following your house rules for your pets. I do not offer boarding or allow client pets at my home. I will not provide food or other consumables, though I will confirm what treats your pets can have because all good pets deserve treats. I provide basic behavior assistance such as teaching your dog that jumping on people is inappropriate, basic tricks (sit, down, paw), leash manners, but I DO NOT OFFER PAID TRAINING. I am not a certified trainer in any capacity, though I have trained many of my own animals (including rats and cats!)
About: I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own two mixed dogs and an orange tabby cat myself. I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible! I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)
“Our dog loves Danielle! She's been very accommodating every time we need her and she was able to meet us last minute and do a meet and greet with us when we were in a bind. We've had drop ins or walks multiple times now and everything has been great!”
About: WARNING- I send soooooo many pic and video updates to pet parents. If you don’t like for constant updates I may not be the sitter for you. I am a huge dog person, my aunt is a veterinary technician, and since I was a child, I went to work with her every weekend to assist her with cleaning the kennels, sitting with the dogs the veterinary clinic owned. Observing the animals behavior. I’ve owned a dog since I was five years old. Dogs have ALWAYS been a passion of mine. Anytime I see one out and about, I always ask if I can pet it or Love on it. I currently have an American Staffordshire Terrier named Kira Bella, I’ve owned her for four years. She is an ex show dog. She’s my child. I treat her no differently than a human would treat their own child. So I know the importance of finding the right person to care for your dog or cat. I am very picky about who watches my girl so I understand, just know that your fur baby is in good hands with me and I will treat them like they are my own fur baby. I have several clients that have booked with me that loved the service I’ve provided for them. I do require a meet and greet beforehand to make sure we are compatible, if we vibe well together then I will book you in right away! I own my own business so I make my own hours, I’ll have plenty of time to care for your babies as my work is very flexible. I will treat your fur baby like they are my own, if they are allowed on the furniture, I will cuddle with them. If they need to be crated , I have no problem crating them. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to your baby. I was raised with an aunt that is a veterinary technician so I spent a lot of time at the vet clinic with her learning how to handle animals and give them medication.
About: Experience includes growing up with a mini farm to raising sugar gliders in college and now having my two yorkiepoo fur babies for the last 6 years. My toddler son and I have been doing drop in visits for our neighbors dogs for a couple years now and really enjoy the cuddles and play time! I’m a SAHM so my schedule is pretty open 7 days a week for drop by visits to include walks, potty breaks and play time. Having an open schedule makes it easy to pop over to your home to let your furry loved ones out to stretch their legs, be fed, play some ball, get tummy rubs or for walks. My two small sons are always with me but one spends most of his day snoozing while my 2 year old toddler would love nothing more than to throw the ball 100 or more times for your furry friend.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was literally 2. I love them all. I go to animal ark also and sometimes volunteer there. Never really had any issues Currently I’m only working part time so whenever I have extra time I would love to dedicate it to helping people with their animals when they are busy. I have a fenced in backyard and I have two kennels in my home for my dogs. I will treat my clients home with the most care and respect.

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 Fortson. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Fortson.

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.

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.
