About: I’m a pre-vet major with a love for all animals, especially dogs! I’m 19 years old, a full time student, and have 5 years of dogsitting and dog walking experience! I have a soft spot for older dogs, as well as experience caring for young litters of pups! I walk some of my clients’ dogs in their own backyard trails, and a few I transport to local parks for our walks. I love all of my clients dogs like they’re my own, and take special care to encourage their interests, and adapt our time together to fit their personality and needs! I have 6 repeat clients that I’ve met through rover, and treasure the time that I spend with their pets. The reoccurring clients I’ve had for 8 months have become a staple in my life, and a regular in my routine. It’s so special to be the part of the week that a dog looks forward to!! Booking a few weeks in advance is a good way to ensure I’m able to work around YOUR schedule! I take pride in caring for your pets like they are my own! As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of not only respecting your dog’s boundaries, but also the rules you have for your dog! If you or your pet need to be accommodated in any way I’ll do my best to make it happen!
About: I am the son of a former vet tech and zookeeper. For as long as I can remember caring for animals of all kinds has been an ingrained mindset and part of my life.

In my care at anytime, I will use provided equipment for transportation. Your pet safety is number one.
“Priscilla saved the day accepting my request at very short notice. I had a 12 hour shift to work and no coverage for Louis. Additionally, I realized at the end of that 12 hour shift that I had no coverage for the next two days due (in no small part to a massive house move that had just occurred). Again, Priscilla came to the rescue and helped me for the next two days. She is a great communicator and a clearly dedicated professional.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Great Barrington
I can’t recommend Camille highly enough. They cared for my two very different dogs — a senior pug with needs and a high-energy husky — with professionalism, warmth, and obvious expertise. Highlights:  Gentle, patient handling of my elderly pug: moved him carefully, monitored his energy and appetite, and always treated him with calm respect.  Excellent management of my husky’s energy: long, engaging walks, safe recall work, and enrichment that wore him out in the best way.  Reliable and punctual: always arrived on time and followed care instructions exactly.  Clear communication: sent timely updates and photos, noted any small concerns, and checked in when needed.  Trustworthy and attentive: my home and dogs were safe; I returned to happy, relaxed pets every time. If you need someone who can handle both a delicate senior dog and a rambunctious active breed, Camille is fantastic — compassionate, skilled, and utterly dependable.
Camille was extremely reliable and caring for our two dogs! She came everyday rain or shine and would even check the weather and make recommendations to adjust the timing of the walk based on the weather that day. When she noticed the health of one of the dogs was not normal that day she notified us immediately so we could help the dog. She included updates about the dogs health in the following days. She was exactly what the doggies needed and she will be greatly missed while she is on her research trip!

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 .
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.
