About: I have always had a dog in my life, which has given me a lifelong love for caring for animals. I enjoy playing with dogs, taking them on walks, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like family, not just as a job. I make sure their needs are met and that they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. I am also very patient with shy or nervous dogs and take the time to help them feel comfortable and build trust. I plan on dog sitting/ walking during all my breaks from school. I am free everyday during those breaks. The only thing that would get in my way is volleyball practices, but these are only 2 hours and not a daily thing. I make sure the pet feels comfortable around me and welcomes me into their house. If the pet is at my house I will also be welcoming and make sure they adapt to the environment.
About: Hello there! I have lived with and loved animals my entire life, learning to care for puppies, adult dogs and cats, rescues, and guinea pigs. Safety and compassion for your pet are my top priorities. I will meet your pet with what they need. I am a recent graduate from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. I am home for the time being and work a part-time job. I am willing to work out a schedule with you and your pet. Compassion and safety are my priorities, but when caring for your pet, your priorities are my priorities. I respect how you would like your animal to be cared for. Whatever your pet needs, I will go out of my way to make sure they are taken care of.
About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine for 3 years currently. I have a ton of experience with all size dogs and cats! I would love to take care of your babies.

I would try to follow the same routine that you would typically follow and be as loving as I can be so your pet isn’t lonely!
About: My mother has a dog sitting business called Your Place or Mine that I help her with regularly. I got on Rover to make some extra money while I'm in college. Furthermore, I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. Even now I have two of my own dogs. Since my Mom's more experienced with watching animals, she may help me with jobs from time to time. I work part-time and also go to school part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to stay with your pet(s) and check on them. I'll check on your pet(s) periodically and care for them as I'm instructed. I also have prior experience caring for older animals and animals who take oral medications or shots.
“Came over to walk my dogs on short notice due to me being sick. Was friendly and communicative and sent a photo. They both came back out of breath and went straight to their water bowls so I’d say they had a great walk.”

About: 5 years ago I fell in love with my dog Shiba Foxy, she is literally my best friend. I have trained her to be such a good family dog. With maybe a little to much begging for food, but we are not perfect! Other than that I have raised 4 kids and a cat! So what can go wrong? After a very busy life of working in the finance industry and being a district manager in the outside field, I took a step back and now work in a director position working from home. I find myself needing a bit more. I also love things that don't talk back, like kids. hehe. In my home we have a fully fenced in yard. Foxy in leashed in harnessed on walks at all times. It's important to abide by the guidelines that the customer wants you to follow, if they want their animals in a crate with food or treats then prefect. If they don't then that is what you follow.

I am a college student and I pet sit over the summer, and holiday breaks throughout the year. I am available for daily drop-in’s throughout the week and on weekends. Morning/Night Check-ins would be easiest for me but I would be happy to visit more frequently if need be! Also, I can sit and play with your pet for a few hours if you’d prefer that! I have 2 pets of my own so I would prefer to care for your pets in your home! I would come to your house as frequent as you’d like throughout the day.
About: I have one dog who is often spoiled with hikes, snuffle mats, sniff work, yard activities, special treats and some basic training. I'd love to spoil your pup in the same ways while we all hang out! I walk my dog almost every day. And on days I can't I make sure we do extra indoor activities or play extra in the Yard, maybe go for an extra car ride. First, I follow any instructions given by dog parents. I have a fenced in yard. As long we don't have any escape artists, pets will be able to roam the yard freely. I like to make frequent potty trips and tried to keep pets entertained in some shape or way.

About: I train, take care of, and babysit future service dogs in training. I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have worked with all kinds of breeds, sizes, and types of dogs. I worked at a dog daycare for a semester to improve my knowledge and skills, which included handling and monitoring 15+ dogs at a time, ranging in size and aggression levels, as well as isolating and caring for their individual needs and wants amid the chaos. I love being active and going on long walks, and I love taking the 4 paws dogs on walks while working on the skills they are learning, balancing that with play and relaxation. I'm self-employed and set my own schedule, which makes me flexible and available to others' schedules. Daily walks at parks or in my neighborhood to remain active. As a 4 Paws Sitter and Handler, I encourage bringing dogs into all environments, from stores to libraries, so I usually have a dog by my side throughout daily activities, including studying, shopping, and social events with friends. I'm very adaptable in new environments. I like to keep the pets on their usual routines to avoid creating any stress or new emotions and to keep them as comfortable as possible. No issue with overnight stays if the pet needs more maintenance or attention. I make sure to get a full rundown of any issues to be aware of, as well as maintain skills or rules that the owner has
“Isabel is such a fantastic dog walker! Dependable, punctual, able to be flexible with scheduling. Plus she takes great care of your pets and sends the cutest updates and pictures.”

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.

- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
