About: My name is Julia and I am 22 years old, I work part-time at a pet store and have a very flexible schedule, so I have a lot of free time! I'm also in school currently for Wildlife Management and Conservation! I have 2 guinea pigs named Mocha and Maple, they're both a little over a year, so I am open to pet sitting any exotic babies if needed as well! I currently work part-time, but I am available every day except for Sundays unless it's after 6! I would be happy to discuss what would work best for you! My schedule may change around a bit because of school, but it has been pretty consistent the past few months, so it wouldn't be too much of a change! If you have a list of directions that you would like for me to follow, I would be more than happy to follow it! They're very helpful for me to remember everything, and it can also help give you a peace of mind as well. I care for them like they're my own!

About: As a pet owner for 20+ years, I have been blessed to care for dogs through every stage of life—from puppies to seniors, including a blind dog and one with mobility challenges. While I am new to Rover, I am not new to the genuine attention, patience, and love that fur babies deserve. My experience also includes completing individual and group K-9 training courses with my own dogs. Agility is in the mix as well, so the back yard is often home to hoops, jumps, tunnels, and weave poles...oh my! Currently, I work full-time, Monday - Thursdays, and half-days on Fridays. Evenings and weekends are dedicated to adventures, cuddles, and the like with my English Spring Spaniel, Granger. Please feel encouraged to message me about dates, times, and the like. If able, I will happily make accommodations. I have a spacious fenced in yard for "fun and run". Crates are preferred for overnight stays. Furbo and Ring are on premises for extra safety and security.

About: As a lifelong dog owner, caring for dogs comes naturally to me. I also gained experience watching and caring for dogs while hosting my own Airbnb. What sets me apart is the patience, compassion, and attention I give every pet. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires trust, and I work hard to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I'm a lifelong dog owner and an early riser who can provide care starting as early as 5:00 AM. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I'm comfortable accommodating feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I make sure every pet receives reliable, attentive care and feels safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I tailor my care to each pet's routine so they experience as little disruption as possible while their owner is away. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed according to their schedule, get exercise, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also keep an eye on their overall well-being and can provide updates and photos for peace of mind. For overnight stays in a client's home, I maintain the pet's normal routine and provide companionship throughout the evening and morning. I understand that many pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and stress-free experience while treating both the pet and the home with respect. As a lifelong dog owner, I know how important trust and reliability are when someone is caring for your pet, and I treat every dog as if they were my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Garden City
Kayla & Jessica were warm & friendly when we first met. My dog Yuki walked up to them to say hello immediately--which is not always her way. They were always punctual, communicated with me during my travel (as requested), and provided my pup with exceptional care. I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to meet them, will definitely use again, and highly recommend!

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 Garden City. 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.

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 Garden City. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
