“Michelline took such good care of my girl (last minute) while I was having a busy work weekend. She walked her and gave her the cup of food I left and even brought my delivery box inside.”
“Danielle handled our two dogs with great care and we would absolutely trust her with our pups again! She was responsive, kind, and our dogs were happy and tired when we got back.”
“Lucinda is incredible with our boy! We can tell in all the pictures she takes that he has such a great time with her. She communicates so well. We always look forward to her reviews of how the day went with Cruz - she keeps it creative and always writes something fun and descriptive. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Stacey was awesome and our pup had an amazing time walking with her. I loved all the pics she sent and she gave thorough notes about each walk. We will definitely use Stacey again!”
“Ron is fantastic with our highly energetic Corgi! He's reliable and incredibly patient, and he never seems phased by his energy. You can tell Ron puts his whole heart into it. He genuinely cares about our dog's wellbeing. Our dog Kiyo absolutely adores the walks and gets so excited whenever he sees him. We've noticed a real difference in his mood and energy levels since we started using Ron, and we couldn't recommend him more highly.”
“Emma was fantastic with my dog! He took to her so quickly and he’s usually more shy/timid around strangers. She followed all instructions to a T and took a bunch of photos which I appreciate. I would absolutely recommend Emma to watch your fur babies!”
About: I raised my heart dog since she was 8 weeks old and a whirlwind of chaos (working breed with no job) into a loving, well behaved family companion so I’m comfortable with puppy and dog training in a calm, reward-based manner. I miss my dog so much and I’m ready to give yours all the love I have carried for the last 5 years that I haven’t had my baby. I’m a product photographer that works from home and makes her own schedule so your babies will always get the attention, love and potty breaks they need and deserve. Otherwise, I'm really outdoorsy and active so if your dog enjoys long walks or hikes, I’m happy to take them with me! I have a fully fenced backyard on a 1/3 acre in a quiet, lovely neighborhood in SW PDX where your dog can run free or sniff the flowers 🥰 If taking care of your pet in your own home is less disruptive to their routines, I’m happy to petsit at your house!
About: I have been around dogs my entire life, beginning with growing up alongside a German Shepherd. My lifelong experience with dogs has given me a strong understanding of their needs, personalities, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. I know how much trust pet owners place in someone caring for their animals, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m currently in school, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend caring for your pets. I’m available every day for walks and will do my best to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when someone is caring for your pet in your home. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own, and I’m mindful of keeping things clean, secure, and in the condition you left them. I’m dependable, respectful, and attentive to your instructions and your pet’s routine. I want you to feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is being cared for and your home is in good hands.
About: What sets me apart is my experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve been pet sitting since middle school and have cared for cats and dogs with different personalities and needs. I’m calm, patient, and detail-oriented, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Owners have especially appreciated my communication, reliability, and the peace of mind I provide through regular updates and photos. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m completely free on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and most weekends, with Thursday availability after 5 PM. This allows me to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I enjoy spending plenty of time with the pets I care for rather than simply stopping by, and I’m happy to work around their routines, feeding schedules, walks, and individual needs. My availability also makes it easy for me to provide consistent care and regular updates while their owners are away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions and their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific house rules. I’m very attentive to safety and details, and I make sure pets are comfortable, supervised, and never left in an unsafe situation. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always know how their pets are doing. My goal is for both the pets and their owners to feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while they’re away.

About: Welcome to Pup Paradise! We have a large fenced in backyard and fenced front yard patio area for running and playing! There is also a nice walking trail just around the corner from our house too. Our house is spacious with hardwood floors. There are lots of cozy areas to sleep and cuddle. We keep it clean. I work from home, so I'll be with your pup all day to give them much love and playtime. As for pet experience, I had my previous dog BJ for 14 years and worked at an animal hospital in Chicago for 2+ years. I have also worked as a dog walker for 2 years and I am the resident dog sitter whenever my friends go out of town! I believe we should care for our pets and love them as we do our own family. I am very attentive to my own pup's needs as I will be to yours! Fozzie Bear, a 2 year old Border Terrier mix, is my furry companion. We love to go on long walks and hikes together. He loves to play and gets along with most dogs, so you can rest assured your pup will go home all played out and happy!
About: I have loved animals my entire life. I grew up with Samoyeds (fluffy white sled dogs) and was so happy when I was able to get one of my own 13 years ago, and since then I have also adopted a Heeler mix. My dogs are members of my family, and I will treat your pets the same way. I love taking dogs out to all the amazing parks and trails in the area. And when I am home or doing a drop-in, I'm happy to play and keep your pets company while you are away, as well as make sure they are fed and have enough water. If there are any special needs or requests, please just let me know. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

“Sarah is the BEST! Caring and considerate and just an amazing dog person. 1st time doing this and wasn’t sure how it was going to work.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Garden Home-Whitford
If our boy Lenny could talk, he would tell us of the great adventures and monstrous beasts he and his friend Anna Lisa see on their walks together. But he can’t talk. So we’ll assume his excitement when she arrives and his massive nap when she leaves says it all. Highly recommend!
Erica is so amazing! Our little puppy was nervous the first few days, and Erica just sat and played with her until she was ready to go for a walk. I am continually impressed by Erica's intuition and how she goes above and beyond for our dog. You can really tell she cares!
Kerensa is awesome with pets and people. She gained the trust of my very anxious untrusting pitt mix so much that he was excited for her to come for his walks! She's very intuitive and makes sure your pups are safe and happy and adjusts as needed to make this so. I always know my bestie is in good hands, safe and happy with Kerensa when I have to be away.
Emma took great care of our dog on her drop in visit/walk! Our dog Hoku loves her and was so happy to see her. I trust Emma with my pets and it puts my mind at ease knowing they will be in great hands when we are away from home! She is so dependable, I will definitely continue to rebook her!
Annalei is great at communicating information and responds very quickly to messages. It had been a while since our pup had been walked by someone other than us but our dog recognized Annalei right away from a few years ago and eagerly went on a walk with her. Annalei is very kind and patient and we felt so comfortable (and grateful she came all the way back to our neighborhood) to walk our dog.
We’ve had an amazing experience with our dog walker! She is incredibly communicative, reliable, and truly goes the extra mile every time. Han and Chewie absolutely adore her, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. She always sends lots of updates and pictures, which I really appreciate—it makes such a difference being able to see how happy and well cared for they are. While I was away, one of my dogs wasn’t feeling well, and she took extra care and attention to make sure he was comfortable and looked after. That level of thoughtfulness meant so much to me. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. We will definitely continue to use her!

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 Home-Whitford. 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.

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 .

- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
