About: I’m a retired wildlife biologist with lots of time and interest in taking care of animals. I’ve had dogs and indoor (mostly) cats most of my life and thus I’m fully used to scooping poo, sweeping up kitty litter, etc. You will not return to a minefield in the yard or a messy litter box I’m retired and thus available often. You can count on me to spend quality time with your pets, not just feed and go. I look forward to meeting them I like animals more than most people, haha, and will care for them with great focus. Your pets will be my buddies and we’ll have a safe and fun time together. I do not have a fence but my house is in the middle of a 113 acre mostly wooded property I own.
About: Relaxed, in-home care for your four legged friend! I have worked in the veterinary field for over 15 years working with a variety of breeds and personalities. Iam competent in administering medications, watching for sicknesses, and dealing with senior pets. I am also a human EMT meaning I work well under stressful circumstances and can process.and thinking clearly in those situations. Your friends are in good hands when in my care. I am currently a homeschool Mom of 2 sweet girls. I have ample time during the day for walks, drop ins, play time, etc. My priority is easing your burden. I do not currently bring dogs to my home, as I have two large dogs of my own. While in your home, I would make sure everything is safe and secure while you are away. I am happy to perform additional small tasks, if requested, for an additional charge.

About: Effective October 15, 2026: I am relocating and moving services to Milledgeville, Ga. I will reinstate my pickup/dropoff fees. Please review the profile in its entirety. I will host a few doggy play dates throughout the month. I am employed as a nurse PRN. With that being said, my schedule is as flexible and open as I intend for it to be. Potty and feeding times are considered when making my schedule for the day. Fur babies typically get let out Q4H. Dogs are not allowed free range. Pups are either let into fenced in backyard or dog park, or expand their horizons on an open field with 50 or 100-foot tethers to run around. Although their recall may be good with you, I want to ensure your babies come back to you the way you left them. I follow directions and your suggestions to the T. I take care of them the same way in which you'd take care of your babies.
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have potty trained numerous puppies and have taken care of my own and friends for 20 plus years. I have given medication for allergies and diabetes. Since retiring pet sitting is enjoyable to me especially since I dedicate all my time to giving attention and care to all kinds. I mostly prefer dogs and cats though I did grow up with horses and rode all during my youth. So horses is also a plus for me. I would love the opportunity to take care of your fur babies. I am retired and have a lot of time on my hands and what better way then to play with fur babies. I have had a dog inside of the home since I was 2. At this time I cannot board dogs due to my dogs. They are in an underground fence system which gives them run of the front and back yard if my home.
“Kaila did an amazing job taking care of Luna! She was reliable, communicative, and made sure Luna was well cared for throughout the booking. I really appreciated the updates and the attention she gave to my dog. I felt comfortable knowing Luna was in good hands. I would definitely book with Kaila again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker. Thank you so much! 🐾”

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 Godfrey. 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 Godfrey after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
