About: I’ve owned two dogs of my own (1 currently - Ellie!) and I regularly dog sit two other dogs owned by a friend. I love dogs and understand their behavior very well. As a dog owner myself, I understand the peace of mind that comes with leaving your dog with someone reliable and trustworthy. I have a full time job Monday through Friday but am generally available on weekends and occasional weeknights. I’m also more flexible on Fridays. I’m comfortable with caring for dogs of all sizes. I would love to help provide potty breaks and walks and playing! For boarding, I have a roughly 30x30ft fenced yard and one 40lb friendly dog of my own.

“Alicia is a diligent and professional Pet Caregiver. She walked my dog every morning while I was traveling out of the country for 20 days. She was always punctual and kept me informed each day about how much she and Toffee had walked along with pictures! She sent me constant reminders on other matters related to my pet! I highly recommend her services!”

“Krista was so great with Frankie! It was our first time using Rover and we have used her 3 times already. Our pup has a lot of energy and loves going for her walks and she looks so happy in the pictures we get. Would highly recommend.”

“Amy came over earlier in the week to meet Ornn and I. Ornn quickly warmed up to her so I knolew it was going to be a good fit. She was prompt to pick Ornn up for his walks, and her notes let me know exactly what he was up to. I also loved getting the pictures to know he enjoyed his walk and then when he was back home and comfy.”

“Our girls loved having Sharon walk them during the day! After every visit I received an update and pictures. Sharon was very professional and prompt. I’ve already booked again for April!”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs, cats, small mammals, and other exotic pets for more than 35 years. I have experience with raising puppies and kittens to caring for senior pets. My summer schedule is very flexible, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests. Whether your pet needs a quick walk or regular visits, I'm happy to help. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I take the time to learn your pet's routine and preferences so I can ensure a happy and loving experience while you are away.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life so I can take care of puppies to elderly dogs. Most dogs love me and want to come play and pet. I also have a 2.5yr old son who absolutely LOVES dogs. We are happy to take care of dogs with special needs or is on mediations. We had a cat that just recently passed away and she would have been 19yrs old this year. She had asthma and we had to give her an inhaler 2x a day for 10 years. Happy to help your family with any special needs. We will love them like our own while you are away. I currently run my own business and work from home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fairly easily adopt to your needs and help out wherever I can. I have a nice size home so your dog will have lots of free range all over the house. I live in a very pet friendly community so there are a ton of dogs around and a nice place to go walking the dog.
About: I have worked in various different ways with animals throughout the past 6 years. I have pet sat for family friends and used to work in a kennel where we board both cats and dogs. I have had pets all my life and know how much they mean to you so I will give them the best care! I have a part time job but it is very flexible! I am looking to do pet sitting full time so I have as much time for your pets as I can! I make sure the pets are comfortable and happy. Just write down what your pet needs and I will make sure to follow their schedule.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure their pets feel comfortable while they’re away. I’m responsible, dependable, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind. I’m currently a student, which gives me a flexible schedule to help care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with you to make sure they stay comfortable, active, and well cared for while you’re away. I know pets are part of the family, and I take their safety and well-being seriously. I always follow the owner’s instructions, keep pets secure on walks, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind.

About: When my family adopted our first dog, Jennie, a German Shepard mix, I had made it a priority to walk her almost everyday and play with her so she was never bored. I also helped train her when she was a puppy, teaching her how to sit and how to give her paw. I also took care of her when she became older, helping her down stairs and cooking her healthy treats like salmon and chicken. My family has since had two different foster dogs (American bully and Pitbull) that I love to spend time and go on walks with. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands and would love to spend it with your pets! I will always keep a vigilant eye on your pet and do my best to make them as happy as possible. I spend a lot of time outside in my fenced yard with my dog, so I will be sure to give your dog the same amount of attention.

About: I have had pets from a young age, including dogs, cats, fish and hamsters. I am currently the owner of two beautiful mixes named Luna and Lys! In addition to my own pets I have cared for friend’s and family’s dogs and cats numerous times. I know how special animals can be and look forward to caring for your special family members! Profile picture is myself and my girl Luna! I am an elementary special education teacher who is looking to make a little extra money on my summer break. I am typically available at most times in the morning and evening Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Though I do tutor some mornings from 10-11AM. Wednesdays I am available before 2 PM and after 3:30 PM. I am unavailable July 13-August 2 due to a trip. I can provide whatever length of walks is typical for your pet and can accommodate additional routines that are typical in your household. I am unable to bring pets into my home due to my own dogs.
About: 🐾 🐾 Rates 🐾 🐾 I am happy to travel but may need to add a mileage fee for bookings outside of my 15 minute radius. All rates are negotiable. *Boarding: I only host 1 family's pets at a time. This provides a safer environment for your pet and an "at home" feel with plenty of attention, especially for reactive or aging dogs. I don't use crates or kennels but if you want to bring yours along that is fine, I also have 1 medium sized crate on hand if needed. I have a very clean home and welcome pets to feel comfortable if they would like to snooze on the sofas, bed, and we have a secure fenced in yard, but I do not leave dogs unattended in the yard. I usually take my dog to the local dog parks and nature trails and would bring yours along too. 🐾 🐾 Basic Info 🐾 🐾 I am an EMT, certified in Pet CPR + First Aid. For the past 25 years, I have been an animal caretaker. My favorite part is getting to know all of the different breeds and personalities. Your pets will be treated with love, and be as comfortable in my home as yours. I always send lots of photos at the end of each day. 🐾 🐾 My daily schedule 🐾 🐾 I work from home as a university professor. My position is remote, so I am able to work anywhere with a wifi connection. I work for rover occasionally and my schedule is typically super organized and flexible. We do at least 2 active hours per day- and we try to squeeze in as many hikes as possible. If they are up for it, I will take them on a short jog every day too.
“Patrick has been wonderful with our two dogs! Communication is prompt, and he is always on time with our weekly walks. He’ll maximize the time spent with our dogs, exploring new walking paths and scenery. He is always responsive to any questions we have, too.”

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 Fostertown. 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 Fostertown.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fostertown. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
