About: I have been with Rover for four years, I’m learning a lot and having so much fun doing so. I enjoy using Rover to interact with dogs of all breeds and ages. I do have lots more previous experience before Rover but so far this has been the best experience with meeting new people and their dogs. I just recently earned a certificate in dog training with Animal behavioral college. It was a 18 month extensive program and I learned a lot with studying and hands on training. Message me for any questions you have about dog training. With all of my volunteer experience in shelters, and with my own pets, I am comfortable with giving medicine or following any special instructions. I have a fenced back yard with lots of space to run and play. We frequent all the local trails, no matter the weather, so if you need a tired dog, I am your go to Walker or doggie daycare provider! Message me for all your overnight/ extended stay questions. I also care for other animals, so please feel free to message me for cats, birds, exotics, reptiles, etc. I do this full time so my schedule is all about pet care! I set time for long dog walks, playtime, and I work with your feeding schedule. Pets always have water available to them, I keep my backyard tidy and poop free, dog friendly toys only, healthy treats, I stay on feeding schedules, safe walks, and I never leave your pet unattended with children or other animals.
“Lisa continues to be a great caregiver for our dog! We have used her services on several occasions and will continue to for the future. She has great communication and you can tell she really cares!”
“Julie was such a great help when I needed a few days of dog walking for my hyper puppy. She gave me great detailed updates of the visits, kept an eye on my home and other surroundings, easy to communicate with and was a loving/caring help for my girl. My puppy loved spending time with her! Will definitely book again in future! Very thankful.”
About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes and have hands-on experience training and caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own, a 14 year old Pekingese and a 8 year old Husky, which has given me daily experience managing both small and large dogs with very different needs and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and active or prefers a slower pace, I'm comfortable providing safe, attentive care, exercise, and companionship. My background with dogs big and small allows me to adapt to each pet's unique routine and help them feel comfortable and well cared! My flexible schedule allows me to give your pets lots of attention, love, playtime, and exercise. I'm committed to making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way! My number one priority is making sure your pets feel comfortable and secure in their own home. I understand that every pet adjusts at their own pace, so I give them the time and space they need to build trust and feel at ease. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet companionship. My goal is to provide attentive, loving care while helping them feel safe, relaxed, and happy in their familiar environment.
About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. From a young age, my parents taught me how to raise, train, and care for dogs, including training wilderness search & rescue dogs. Over the years, I've cared for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic young puppies to beloved senior pets. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they're away from home. Our own dog, Merlin, gets two walks every day, rain or shine, and we believe every dog deserves that same level of attention and care. When your dog stays with us, you can feel confident knowing they'll receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship. We treat every dog in our care the way we'd want someone to treat a member of our own family. I work from home on a contract basis and take care of our daughter throughout the day so I can devote as much time as needed to ensuring your pet gets all the love and attention to their needs as they deserve. I have a small fenced yard and some extra dog crates if needed. Merlin and I need two walks a day through baseball fields and forest near our house and I will bring your dog along too. I can also do more walks with them if needed. I can also visit or stay in your home. Your dog will be our guest and we pride ourselves in keeping a clean home for pets.
About: I've had animals a part of my family since I was born. Growing up it was my responsibility to take care of them - feeding, watering, walking, and cleaning up after their messes. I often looked after our neighbors' pets as well. I have experience with large and small dogs, various temperaments of cats, pets in their "baby" phase as well as older pets who need extra care and love. I am good with all breeds of dogs and cats. I like to give each pet time to get comfortable with me before entering into their space. I consider each pet I meet a new friend to bond with over play, walks, and snuggles. :) I am regularly a house cleaner who runs her own business in the local area, so this gives me the opportunity to be available to pet owners and their pet's needs. I currently care for 4 different family's pets throughout the year and have rarely come into a scheduling conflict. I like to give people the freedom they need in their life while not having to worry about their pet's needs. I do not currently have the space to care for other people's pets in my home but am willing to stay in their home overnight to accommodate their needs. I like to have the pet owners make a list of things I should know about their pets. This could be special needs, dos and don'ts, typical schedule for feeding, bedtime, etc., pet's favorite spot to lay or toy to play with. That way the pet(s) can stay closer to what they know for lower stress.

Looking for short term income where I can have a flexible schedule on the new journey in my life. I will make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you are away and send plenty of cute pictures so you know they are cared for so you can enjoy your time.
“This was Heather and Nala's first time together and Heather did an amazing job with my girl. My girl is super shy and Heather was able to get her comfortable and go for a short walk. Thank you Heather.”
“Metta was great she did an outstanding job walking Dapper. She was always on time and very respectful. She also did a great job controlling Dapper who can sometimes be a little stubborn. I would recommend Metta to anyone who needs a dog walker especially if they are going out of town.”
“Dennis is dependable, reliable, and so good to our pup! Our dog loves his walks, and he puts us at ease caring for him as we would. I would recommend Dennis to anyone!”

About: I was born into farming in northern Mississippi. From an early age I have loved being around and enjoyed everything animal. Now my world is, my wife, my kids, and 4 felines that love our 2 chickens. As my kids are becoming adults, I have decided to offer my love and knowledge to keep me busy and allow ALL the other Pet parents some peace of mind, knowing they can take time for themselves and still know someone is lovingly caring for their pets AND property.

“I highly recommend Clarissa! I used her for several months for bi-weekly walks with my dog while I was at work and she was the best! Super easy to communicate with, reliable and great with Murphy. He is going to miss seeing her face every week!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have provided loving, committed homes to dogs of all temperaments as an adult — from an animal-aggressive Akita to the sweetest Golden Lab. I understand that every dog is different and deserves care that meets their unique needs. I’ve volunteered as a dog walker with the Kitsap Humane Society and have taken our most recent rescue through both beginner and advanced training classes. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, reading canine body language, and providing calm, consistent care. Friends regularly trust me with their pets while they’re away, and as a dog owner who has also used Rover myself, I truly understand how important communication, reliability, and trust are when someone is caring for your fur baby. When we’re not out enjoying nature together, I’m usually at home or the library with a good book — or planning our next travel adventure. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I currently hold a substitute position with the Kitsap Regional Library, which gives me an extremely flexible schedule and allows me to prioritize pet care needs. I don’t have dependents, have a reliable vehicle, and can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Any personal travel is planned well in advance, so availability is always communicated clearly. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both your space and your pet with the utmost respect. I’m tidy, mindful, and attentive to routines, instructions, and any specific care needs. I prioritize safety by following established guidelines, maintaining a calm environment, and paying close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort. Clear communication is important to me, and I’m always happy to provide updates so you can feel confident your pet and home are in good hands.
About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life. I’m active duty Navy, my job is a working dog handler. I have basic CPR training for dogs as well as the knowledge and training to perform basic medical care for dogs. I promise to treat your dog with love, care and kindness. Pet care fits into my daily routine by me making your pets a priority, I will be with them during my available off time, you’ll get tons of photos and we do plenty of play time and walks. I’m beyond respectful of your home and your space, I have no problem cleaning up after your pets or even doing simple chores around the home. My space gets cleaned regularly, I value a clean home. I will protect your pets as if they were my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gilberton
She did a great job taking care of Cody while I was away. She was attentive, reliable, and kept me updated throughout the walks. Cody warmed up to her quickly, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated the care she showed and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.
Rachel and her husband Brendan have been checking in on Lucy while I’m at work since 2024 and I genuinely can’t speak highly enough of them. I work night shift, so one of them would come late at night to let out my pit mix, Lucy while I was working. It’s hard to find someone willing to come in the evening, but Rachel and Brendan were always up to the task. Lucy ADORES both of them and they love her just as much. They’ve become two people I trust completely and even refer to them as Auntie Rachel and Uncle Brendan :) They really are her favorite people. They always sent me pictures and videos of Lucy so I got to see what she was up to which is a nice pick me up while at work. Lucy and I are so lucky to have them in our corner!

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

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
