About: What sets me apart is my ability to care for dogs at every stage of life. I have special experience with puppies and can reinforce training routines like potty and crate training. I also provide attentive, patient care for senior dogs who may need extra monitoring and comfort. i am currently in college with prn jobs but i have plenty of time throughout the week to spend time taking care of your animals. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, exercise, medication if needed, and any specific care requirements. Pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision to make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. For puppies, I help reinforce routines like potty training, crate training, and positive behaviors. For senior dogs, I provide a calmer environment, frequent check-ins, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident that their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I love animals and have taken care of my own for quite a few years. I have experience with training. I trained a German Shepard from young to old. I can teach tricks and give unconditional love. I currently work part time while in school so my schedule is kinda inconsistent however a majority of my afternoons are free. I graduate this year which will create more availability. I make sure they get fed if need be as well as watered. I play with them and may even be able to have play date with my dog. I take them out to use the bathroom and clean up after them if need be.
About: I have always had dogs or cats. Also a horse, turtle and fish. Had several lifelong dogs that have crossed the rainbow bridge. Not ready for my own at this point but have time available to help you with yours. I am a full time realtor and work from home so my schedule is flexible. Dogs could come with on trips to Sioux Falls or stay with my husband. My 2 yr old granddaughter stays with us on the weekends and loves animals. I have several acres off a gravel road secluded by trees. No fence but can tie out for potty breaks. Would love to take walks at the nearby state parks.
About: Growing up, I’ve always loved and cared for dogs. Now that I have my own, I understand the feeling of having someone care for them the way you do. I work a full-time job from Monday to Thursday, and sometimes I have mandatory Fridays. However, I’m more than happy to assist on weekends or weekdays after 5 PM, and I’m also available on Fridays if my work schedule allows. I reside in an apartment, but I thoroughly enjoy taking them for daily walks and visits to the dog park, every day, other day, depending on my schedule.
About: With over 10 years of experience, I combine a passion for animals with professional expertise. As a nurse, I understand the importance of compassionate care, and that’s exactly what I provide for your furry family members. Meet the Team: As a seasoned pet sitter, I’ve cared for countless dogs, cats, and other critters. My own pets are my pride and joy, and I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. My Little Helpers: With three children under the age of 7, our home is always bustling with energy and laughter. Your pets will enjoy the playful company of our little ones during their stay. I am also a professional photographer and would love to capture some fun photos of your furry friend! Ask me about my add on photography service! Between my husband and I, someone is always home. It would not be a problem if your pet would need frequent bathroom breaks. As a part time nurse, I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I also have a cat that keeps to himself. He is allowed to free roam the main floor. They play outside whenever I am out. Your animal will be treated like my own pet with your typical rules and requests respected.
About: My significant other and I live in a house with 3 dogs. We take our dogs (who are more like our kids)on a walk in our neighborhood or fenced in backyard and let them run around at least twice a day! Our dogs are spoiled and loved as they should be! We play ball and snuggle and they sleep with us too:) We'd love to love your pet while you're away! I work part time at WagZone dog day care so I have a lot of free time for my own pups. I love walks, hikes on our land outside of time or just fetch time in the yard. Fenced in yard allows dogs to run freely all day with a dog door to a sheltered garage. My dogs get along with all other souls.
“Excellent person and totally reliable. Katie took to her at the first meeting. I got a text before and after each walk. We appreciate Anna very much and Highly Recommend her services. Rick and Rebecca Clemens”
“Madison was incredible. She helped us out last minute and was incredibly flexible and very easy to communicate with. Our dog absolutely loved her. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

I am a stay at home Mom with 2 furbabies Of our own (10yr old male tea cup chihuahua & a 4yr old female mini red-tri Aussie. I’ve had a pet in my life since I was born (40years young). Since I’ve become a stay at home Mom we have added our mini Aussie to our family. We walk 1-2 times per day and play a lot of fetch in our backyard. Being an avid animal lover family we will give your 4 legged family member a comfortable home away from home so you can enjoy your time away with no worries. ❤️ ❤️ I am a stay at home homeschool Mom so I am able to give your cute fur baby and or babies plenty of attention. :) I have a large yard and long tie-outs for plenty of yard play time.

About: I am looking forward to working with you and your pets! I am in love with dogs and am waiting to get one of my own; I am a definite dog person and enjoy being outdoors, walking/running with a leash in my hand. My family has had dogs throughout my whole life, and I appreciate the companionship that a dog can give. I am in Sioux Falls and would like to work with a dog of any size. Let me know if you have any questions at all! One of my favorite things is to go home (NE South Dakota) and walk my sisters dog - the perfect stress relief with my puppy nephew, a chocolate lab named Rudy. I am hopeful that I will make a bond with your pet and help take some stress off of you!
About: Growing up on a farm, there were always plenty of animals that need love. Big ones and small ones. I've had small dogs like a dachshund and as large as a Doberman. I also have a special place in my heart for kitties. I am currently working part-time. My hours are generally 10-2, but I must be present for our noon meeting. I am working on starting to live a healthier life, I'd love to add fuzzy friends in the process! I would love to know all the details of your pets! Their favorite treats, toys, games.. all of it! I'm happy to let them play in the yard, go on a walk or even take them on an adventure! My boys are beyond spoiled and they know it. Some people go to the store and never leave without something for their child... that's me, except it's for the kitties!
About: Hello, My name is Taylor and I love dogs and have grown up with them my entire life. I am comfortable caring for them in your home or bringing them to mine. I enjoy walking and helping with training while dog sitting. I am comfortable with small and larger dogs breeds as I grew up with cocker spaniels and labs. I couldn't resist anymore and got my own dog in August! He is a very spoiled toy Australian shepherd. I would love to share my love for dogs with your pet while dog sitting and caring for your pet. I have volunteered at a local dog shelter for the past two years and have lots of experience working with many different breeds, ages and types of dogs. If you have any questions or are interested in working with me please feel free to message me. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am open to working around your schedule as well.
About: Ive had my own pet for most of my life and I treat every animal as if they’re my own! I would be honored to care, and keep your family members company while away, or giving potty breaks/walks! Animals are my passion and I’d love to get more experience and knowledge. I will always treat you’re pet as my own and care for them in anyway I can.

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 Garretson. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Garretson. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
