“Erica agreed to help me out on relatively short notice, walking my dog Percy while I was out of town, and Percy's other parent was at work for 11 hours/day. It was so great to get the Rover cards she sent, with the cutest photos (Erica has a knack)! The peace of mind this gave me while I was out of town was priceless. I would love to have Erica care for Percy again anytime.”
“Kirsten is wonderful, she came to do a meet and greet and it was clear the dogs both liked her (and one of my dogs is picky). She walked and played with them, and sent lots of great pictures. Will be using her regularly.”
“Alex is great. We have had a few dog walkers previously and she is the best! She gives us great updates on our furbaby, lots of pictures and never cuts the walks short. We have a Chihuahua mix that doesn't always take to new people well to the point that he wouldn't even walk with some of our previous dog walkers. Not a problem with Alex.”
“Eric was able to walk Tugboat on short notice. So helpful and kind. I appreciated the help. Eric also was able to get Tugboat to not be interested in pulling. Can't thank Eric enough. Tugboat was always excited to see Eric and knew the time was coming. Can't recommend Eric enough.”
“So glad that Tessa could take Alfred in a midday walk while I worked. Gave me peace of mind knowing he was taken care of and wouldn’t have to wait for me if I couldn’t get away from work for a lunch time walk. Thank you so much!!!”
“Holly has been wonderful with my Bear! He loves her and the walks she’s been taking him on. I was in a pinch and needed her last minute and she didn’t even hesitate! I’ve already booked her for future walks!”
“Alejandra was prompt, communicative, and you can tell how much she loves dogs. She took lots of great photos of the dogs on their walks and I knew they were safe and well cared for while I was at work.”
“Jennifer is so attentive to details and has great communication! She has come to walk our dog briar and let her out to use the restroom and sends me the cutest rover cards of briar! She is so sweet and we will keep coming back to her!”
About: I've been taking care of the pets, including cats/dogs, for my friends and family. My experience as a pet sitter includes feeding, walking, and playing with pets daily. I've always ensured the pets feel comfortable with their familiar surrounding and follow their routine. Also, provide bathing, grooming, or training for pets when necessary. The care of your pet will be worked into my daily routine. I work for the school district and would be able to check in before and after work, with my weekends free to spend plenty of time with your pet! I have a fenced yard and a dog door, which allows my two friendly dogs to keep your pets busy outside. I can easily crate your dogs if needed.
About: Ive lived with and taken care of animals all my life, and love taking care of and playing with them.I always strive to make sure they get lots of pets and love.❤️ I can typically care for your animals anytime. I can only really work with animals because I can't deal with large crowds of people 5 or more due to anxiety , and I typically get along better with animals.❤️ I strive to make sure any and all of your pet's dietary, exercise , and loving needs are met to the best of my capabilities😊
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have 3 pups of my own and a variety of exotic animals. I have worked as a dog trainer and volunteer at the vet and rescues. I am very active so long walks are my favorite and I have a soft spot for old animals. I communicate very well. The standards I have for the care of my pets is exceptionally high and I provide that same experience for every pet I take care. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to do check ins or walks multiple times a day, if needed, and also have weekend availability. I am a big fan of communication(and photos!) but am trustworthy and reliable enough that you can also be out of service and rely on me to take care of things.
About: Aside from being raised with cats and dogs and everything in between I have had the great opportunity of working as a pack leader at a doggy day care- a job that I thoroughly enjoyed and did well in. I was able to learn skills ranging from enriching a dogs life through play time, correcting and rewarding behavior, and keeping a safe environment that was shared with multiple dogs. I currently have a lot of free time with my current job and have been wanting to fill this time with something that I enjoy. I am most available in the early mornings and later evenings and completely free Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Please refer to this schedule below!! Only free Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturday all day On days, not listed only free after 7 PM Currently I only have a cat who is roughly 2 1/2 years old. My home is filled with cat towers and couple cat trees and hideaways to make sure she lives an interesting life. I give her lots of play time and make sure she is well taken care of and loved always! I would do the same for any dog and cat left in my care.
About: I’ve taken care of several kinds of dogs since I was very young and I love them all! I'd love to work something out to meet you and your fur family! I’m currently between jobs so I have plenty of time to get to know your pet and give them all the attention and love they deserve! You can guarantee your dog will be on the same schedule and routine they are in when you are home with them. I can provide great walks and love to them and feed and bathe when needed.
About: I love all animals, with proper direction I’m positive I can give adequate care to any and all animals and ensure their safety and health. I work full time with a nonprofit organization downtown that helps unhoused youths. My schedule is Sunday through Thursday from 2:30 pm - 10:30. My days off are Friday and Saturday. I can take one break depending on the how far the location is from my work to give a potty break. In my free time I’m devoted to whatever may come and is needed for any and all pets ❤️ I’ve worked with the state for most of my adult life and always have passed a background check. My resume includes elderly care, hospital healthcare, in home healthcare, and most recently three years as a domestic violence/homeless shelter advocate with a non profit organization in rural Alaska.

I am open and eager to learn and care for all different kinds of animals and am confident in my abilities to do so with adequate information from the pet parents.
About: I have had dogs, cats, and rabbits in my adult life and had dogs growing up. I just lost my 12 year old senior dog, sweet Mayble, a week ago. Mayble required extensive medical attention as she had kidney disease, a herniated disc that made it difficult to walk, arthritis, and allergies. She required daily medication for her ailments, She also needed frequent potty breaks, extra water, and extra care going up and down stairs and up onto the couch. I had to be in-tune with her if her little body was getting tired from a walk, I also currently have rabbits who require litter cleanings, hay, pellets, lettuce, and socialization, I’m currently in the process of bonding my 2 rabbits which requires a lot of time and patience. In a personal note, I’m a 37 year old single female who works in the education system. I am mature, capable, and responsible and would take care of your precious fur babies as if they were my own. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! Currently I’m on Summer vacation until the beginning of August so, unless I’m going somewhere to camp overnight, My schedule is very open right now! I can care for young animals all the way up to senior animals. I am available for drop-ins, walking, or even house sitting. Let me know what you need! 😊
About: I've been around animals my whole life. I've owned, pet sit, walked and helped those around me by caring for the pet family members during Emergency leave, and other life events. I am blessed to have plenty of time on my hands to devote to the love and caring of other pet friends! I can't wait to have more company on my walks! We are a military family on Jber I have a fenced in yard, 1 dog and 1 cat to keep your pets company. We have a separate area for our boarders so they have quiet downtime that also serves well for pet friends who may not get along well with others.
About: I've been watching my own personal pets as well as other peoples since I was a young child. I trained my dog, a half lab/half Weimeraner to retrieve at a pretty high level. I had a three legged cat as well. I've been living with dogs my entire life and cats for the last eight years I work remotely and would prefer to house sit in a place where I can also do my work. Your pet would have someone around the majority of the time and I can take care of other business. According to the conditions and the pets stated needs. I love walking dogs and retrieving with them and it is always nice giving cats catnip if they like catnip.

William M.
“I have known William for 15 years, and he has been watching my pets intermittently for the last 8 years. He is always my first choice for pet sitting, because he is reliable, readily reachable by phone and has a lot of experience around many types of animals. He also has been a long time animal lover and treats his own pets like a part of his family. I have 3 cats and 7 chickens. Any time William is responsible for my pets when I am away, I can rest easy knowing that they are in good hands. You too can rest easy if William is watching your pets.”

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Government Hill.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates.
