About: My experience lies with all kinds of pets. From cats and dogs to the more exotic chinchillas. I have cared for pets of all ages from puppies to seniors. I have many years of experience in caring for the medically complex pets so administering medications is something I am comfortable doing. The weather is not what matters to me. Your pets care is my highest priority. I am currently working part time so I have a fairly flexible schedule to care for your pets. I look forward to helping you and your family. Safety for all is my number one priority. Happiness for both you and your pet is my number one goal. I will aide by the house rules and your instructions for caring for your pet.
“Daisy suggested to me the other day that Harley is not a huge fan of walking in the dark so I got her a glow-in-the-dark collar and it was a huge success for my dog. It alleviated her anxiety during their walk. So thank you Daisy for being such an amazing dog walker, that you made an observation that helped make my dog more comfortable on her walks. We appreciate it! We also appreciate the detailed reports on her adventures and the cute pictures you take ☺️”

About: I have had pets all my life, I grew up with a yellow lab who developed diabetes around 10 years old. I learned to give her the insulin shots she needed that allowed her to live a couple more years. Now I have two rescue dogs, one that is now deaf, that I share responsibility for with my parents. I am willing to take the time to learn how to give any special care your dog might need, and can go at your senior pups pace if needed. I can also keep up with young energetic dogs that enjoy playing and exploring. I share responsibilities of my two dogs with my parents so I am often feeding and playing with my dogs. I take care of them daily. As for your pet, I am available to walk your pup anytime from 11am - 4pm on weekdays and all day on weekends. While my own dogs are more couch potato vibe, and don’t need much more than a run in the backyard, I understand your pets needs may be different. In a clients home I prefer to have written instructions about a pets routine. I like to give the care the pet parent would like me to provide. A little bit of training during a walk, a certain strict meal plan, or if your pet needs medicine- I can do it! As long as the information is provided to me I will care for your pet the same way you would.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Goodrich
Kyla came and walked one of our two dogs with me for the last 3 days since I needed a hand wrangling dogs and a toddler for walks. She was a fantastic help and we had great conversation during our walks. Prior to this Kyla did some pet sitting for our cat and was wonderful. We’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future.
Cailin was wonderful w our 2 herding breed dogs. They can both be pretty high energy and she made sure they got enough exercise. The dogs seemed to love her and she sent us great updates and the cutest pics! It is so nice to know they are being well cared for when we aren’t home! Cailin is great!

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 Goodrich. 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 Goodrich 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 Goodrich. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
