About: I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, from playful and energetic to calm and cuddly. I’m really good at picking up on what each pet needs and adjusting my care to match their vibe. What makes me different is that I’m very attentive and patient. I don’t rush through visits—I actually spend time with the pets, play with them, and make sure they feel comfortable and understood. I’m also great with routine, which helps pets feel secure and settled. I can help reinforce basic habits like potty breaks, leash walking, and positive behavior. For older or more relaxed pets, I focus on gentle care, comfort, and companionship. I also send regular updates and photos so owners always know how their pet is doing. Pet care fits easily into my life because I already care for my own dog daily and follow a consistent routine. I have a flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends, which allows me to provide care throughout the day—morning, afternoon, or evening depending on what your pet needs. I always plan ahead for bookings so I can fully commit and make sure each pet gets reliable, consistent care. I know routine is important for pets, so I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free for them. When I’m in a client’s home, I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions carefully, keep things clean, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. If pets stay with me, I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can relax. Since I already care for my own dog, I understand how important structure, supervision, and comfort are. In both cases, I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs over the years. I have also taken care of dogs ranging from young pups to senior dogs that need medication. I love to exercise and be outside! So taking your older pup for a nice slow walk or taking your high energy pup for a run are in my wheel house! I’m a teacher so I have plenty of time over the summer! I have a lot of flexibility in order to take care of your dogs. I am very respectful of your home and babies! I follow instructions very well in order to keep your home and dogs happy and healthy! I can create a dog if needed/required.
“Thanks you so much for your help! I am told the dogs love you. We would definitely recommend you to any other families and I hope we can have you help the dogs again in the future!”

About: Hi, I'm Donna - caring for animals has been part of my life since childhood. I grew up on a dairy farm, learning responsibility, patience, and hands on animal care from a young age. I understand that every animal has different needs, routines ,and personalities. At Simple Life Pet Care, your pets are treated like family—because that’s exactly what they are. I treat each one with kindness, respect, and patience. I have been a nurse for the past 15 years, bringing professionalism, dependability, and attention to detail into everything I do.

From large and small dogs, farm animals, and small pets like rabbits, hamsters, and gerbils. —I provide reliable, loving care you can trust.

I provide pet care as part of my regular weekly routine, which allows me to give each pet calm, consistent, and attentive care. As I’m starting part-time, I intentionally keep my schedule manageable so every visit gets my full attention—not rushed or overbooked. I currently care for my own black lab Hank and I’m very mindful about keeping a secure and structured environment. All outdoor time is supervised—I always use a leash for potty breaks and walks to ensure safety. My daily routine also includes caring for my cat, Snickerdoodle and my chihuahua, Princess. My specialties are drop ins and walks, so I will take great care of your pets.

I have experience in bottle feeding pets, especially cats, and in giving medication. I’ll gladly spend as much time as necessary with your dog (or cat). The more the merrier, so if you have more than one pet, I’ll gladly take care of them as well. I not only have experience with dogs and cats, but I also have experience with birds, pigs, and goats. I can't wait to meet your furry companions. I currently have open availability. I also clean houses and do light landscaping, but those days can be moved around if needed. I am currently looking into going back to college. My availability would change due to classes, but I would try to make any current arrangements still work. I understand that your pet(s) may be used to a certain routine. Mine always have been. I will ask you about their day to day before booking your request and let you know if it's something that works with my schedule.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 364 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Franklin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Franklin. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Franklin after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 .

- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs

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 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.
