About: I used to dogsit when I lived in LA and that’s when I fell in love with the “pitbull” breed. My dogs are my children and I will treat yours just the same. I work fully remote and have a very flexible schedule. My morning usually consists of walking/running my dogs 2 miles and then preparing for the day. I have a fenced in yard and monitor my dogs outside they are not allowed out alone. This helps prevent eating things they should not and any escapes. I can care for your dogs the same or whatever way you prefer.

A typical day begins with a morning potty break or walk, breakfast, fresh water, and playtime. In the afternoon, your pet will enjoy another walk, enrichment activities, cuddles, and plenty of attention. In the evening, we’ll have dinner, another potty break or walk, relaxing playtime, and lots of affection before bedtime.

I’m comfortable administering oral medications and injectable medications, following specific care routines, and providing extra attention to pets who may need a little more patience or assistance. As someone who genuinely loves animals, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. My goal is to make your time apart as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a good portion of the day with the pets I’m caring for. This is especially helpful for puppies, pets who need more frequent attention, and those who simply enjoy having someone around. I’m able to work my schedule around your pet’s needs, including feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and medication schedules.

About: I have over 10 years of pet sitting experience, in addition to a lifetime of caring for and raising a variety of animals. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including senior pets and animals with special needs. I have cared for pets with blindness, deafness, mobility impairments, arthritis, paralysis, seizure disorders, diabetes, anxiety, and other medical conditions that require extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications, maintaining routines, and ensuring each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. What sets me apart is the level of care and dedication I provide to every animal. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them as if they were my own. I prioritize safety, reliability, communication, and consistency, taking the time to build trust with each pet and accommodate their individual needs. Whether your pet needs active playtime, companionship, medication management, or gentle senior care, you can feel confident knowing they are in caring, experienced, and trustworthy hands. Pet care fits perfectly into my lifestyle as a stay-at-home mom because I am home throughout the day and able to provide pets with consistent attention, supervision, companionship, and care. My daily routine already revolves around responsibility, patience, and caregiving, allowing me to easily accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, and plenty of love and attention. I enjoy creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for, and I appreciate the opportunity to help families feel confident knowing their pets are in reliable and compassionate hands while they are away. I will be going to dog parks, and walking the trails that are in and near my complex. If I am coming to you we can go on walks or if you are comfortable, I can transport all fur babies to a dog park near us.

About: I have cared for different breeds, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. My responsibilities included daily walks, feeding, grooming, and administering medication when needed. Pet care is an essential part of my daily and weekly routine. Each morning starts with feeding my pets, followed by their daily walk or playtime. This helps them get the exercise they need and gives me a chance to enjoy some bonding time. Throughout the week, I make it a point to spend quality time with them, whether it’s playing, training, or just cuddling on the couch. Grooming is another key aspect; I set aside time each week to brush them and check for any signs of health issues. Caring for pets at home and for clients involves a mix of attention and routine. In my home, I maintain a structured schedule for feeding, exercise, and playtime while keeping their living space clean and safe. Regular grooming and vet check-ups are important too. For clients’ pets, I follow their specific instructions, ensuring I meet each pet’s needs through proper feeding, exercise, and play. I also monitor their behavior and health, reporting any concerns. Overall, I focus on creating a loving and safe environment for both my pets and my clients' pets.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Gary is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $50 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Gary. 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 Gary 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gary. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
