About: Hello! 🐶 I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, including dogs, cats, fish, and even a pet shrimp! I’m not shy around medications, multiple animals, or high energy pets. I have extensive experience loving senior pets and those with special needs. I’m a daytime and overnight dog and cat sitter with almost 20 years experience caring for animals! 🐱 I am a graduate student, dog and cat mom, and enjoy lots of hobbies like gardening, reading, sourdough baking, and biking. I would love to spend my extra time hanging out with your pets! I treat my clients’ pets and homes as I do my own. I understand how intimidating it is to trust a stranger with their schedules, medications, anxieties, and even your own home while you’re away. I’m comfortable asking for clarification when needed and communicating to make sure your pets have what they need.
“We’re so excited to have found Sierra, and will use her for lots of walks in the future! She’s been able to be super flexible with my ever changing schedule! My dog penny loves getting to see her while I’m at work, and I love getting the pictures Sierra send of their adventures!”

I absolutely adore all animals and would love to take care of your beloved animal I work and go to school daily but during the summer, I can definitely be more free. I always take breaks to walk the dogs around the neighborhood. I always be adequate to feed them and give them water throughout the day at their assigned eating times! If the dog is crate, trained to sleep in the crate at night, they’re welcome to sleep in the crate or if the owner wants, they can sleep in the bed with me. I do not mind.

About: I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with basic training, medication routines, and keeping pups on a consistent schedule. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every dog like my own. I pay attention to each dog’s personality and make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood—plus I always share photo updates so you can relax while you’re away. I just recently graduated from university, so my weekdays and weekends are mostly free! I am available to take care of your pets from Monday-Saturday. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel safest and most relaxed! Whether I’m staying overnight or stopping by for a few hours, I stick to your dog’s routine, keep their space clean and secure, and make sure they get plenty of attention and supervision. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and always focused on creating a calm, safe environment for your pet.
About: Hi I’m Corinne! I’ve loved animals since I was very young and took care of my dog since we adopted her in middle school. I began pet sitting in middle school and have taken care of a large range of pets including dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, and even a duck! Whether your pet needs long walks, quiet company, or extra pets, I’m down for the job! Additionally, I have spent over 100 hours volunteering at my local animal shelter during the summer and I’m continuing my animal knowledge as a Wildlife Conservation major at Virginia Tech. I am currently a student at Virginia Tech, but have lots of flexibility with my schedule especially in the evenings and weekends for pet care! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’m reliable, communicative, and can always send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away. I am comfortable cleaning up after your pet in a capacity including accidents and litter boxes.
“Mary has become our regular dog walker. We are so pleased with her. She is punctual, experienced and caring. When an unleashed dog jumped on ours during a walk, Mary knew just what to do to handle the situation, so neither dog was injured. Best of all, Penny loves her!”
“We had a great walk yesterday. Rochelle was great. She walked Prince and handled him very well. She also learned some of our walking routes as well as side streets of Ashland.”

About: My name is Brittney, and I have 8 years of experience as a veterinary assistant in routine and emergency care. I left the veterinary field to pursue other interests, but I missed working with animals so much I began doing pet care on the side. I enjoy taking care of all kinds of pets, and each pet I care for has a special paw print on my heart. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you think I’d be a good fit for you and your furry friend! I work part-time currently so that I can continue to spend time working with animals! I recently moved to VA and have only recently started pet sitting again so I have time on my schedule! I am experienced in giving all different types of diets and medications as well as walking/sitting all different sizes and breeds of dogs/cats. I also know cats and dogs can take some time to warm up to new people in their environment so I take care to go at your pets pace 😊
About: Every dog, cat, and critter gets my full attention, patience, and genuinely endless affection. Your pet will be in hands that actually care, not just someone checking a box. I pay keen attention to their needs, wait patiently for pets to trust me, and show up exactly when I say I will. I'm a law student heading into my second year of school and I have flexibility this summer for regular visits or last-minute help. I've spent years caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and new clients and I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities. I pay close attention to each animal's cues, take the time to build genuine trust, and am someone you can count on — on time, every time. While I don't have pets of my own right now, I'm surrounded by them constantly and there is honestly nowhere I'd rather be. My schedule is flexible. If it works for you, it works for me. Above all else, I believe communication and timeliness are everything. You'll always hear from me promptly, whether it is confirming a booking, giving an update mid-visit, or letting you know about anything unexpected. No guessing, no chasing me down, just reliable, responsive care you can count on. When I'm in your home, your pet's comfort and routine come first. I follow your instructions closely including feeding schedules, walking routes, any quirks or preferences because familiarity and consistency are what keep animals calm and happy in their parents absence. I treat every home with the same care and respect I'd want shown in my own, and I'm always in close communication so you're never left wondering how things are going. Further, I know that inviting someone new into your home and trusting them with your pets is a big deal, please be assured I'm direct, honest, and an open book.

“Wesley was fantastic with our pups! Working 12hr shifts it can be challenging to find someone to check on and walk my two mini poodles, so I am very thankful Wesley was able to make time for them! Wesley also took the time amidst a busy schedule to meet the fur family which really helped😊🫶🙌”
About: *Insured through Pet Care Insurance as of 4/7/25. I started dog walking in late grade school, but didn't build my extensive knowledge of behavior training, modification, and animal welfare until 4 years ago. I have experience with training puppies and socialization, along with deaf/blind dogs, hospice care, stranger issues, resource guarding, and reactivity. I have built many strong bonds with dogs who have been deemed difficult by being patient and respecting their boundaries. As for cats, I love a spicy cat (have one of my own). I have no issues with overstimulation, handling, re-direction, or medicating any feline friends! I have experience with small animals and reptiles as well. I am pretty flexible overall! I am lucky to have the ability to balance work, school, and life fairly easy despite still being involved in the community. I can pop in throughout the day several times if needed/wanted, and I can also dedicate time to a fun hike or park trip for a few hours for dogs needing a little more! I treat every pet like I would my own, and that doesn't mean loving on them 24/7. I believe in respecting pets boundaries and reading their body language when meeting new people, but also day to day. My pets have a set routine and know what to expect, and I would uphold that to the best of my ability in sitting for anyone else.
About: I take care my sisters dog time to time. I had a pet for 10 years and gave it care and support. I am very patient. I am always available after work to dog sit and my weekends aren't super busy. I am reliable and will meet needs of clients. And work hard. I will give it love and support. I am patient and kind. I love taking walks. I have jogged a half marathon. I am friendly

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 Gilman. 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. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Gilman.

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.

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.
