About: Hello! With 6 years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant, I'm experienced in caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I'm attentive to behavior, body language, and routines, ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My family and friends have entrusted me to care for their young pets as well as their older ones. I currently have a Rottweiler, a Yorkie, and 4 cats (I've even had a hedgehog for many years), so I don't shy away from many animals! I'm unavailable after 5PM on Monday & Wednesday. On Tuesday & Thursday, I'm available after 2PM. I make sure to keep my calendar up to date! I understand feeling anxious entrusting your pet to a stranger, but I'll do everything I can to make your pet feel as loved as possible. I'll make sure your pet gets their steps in (if dog walking). The water bowl will never run dry, and I will diligently handle client requests to make sure their pet is as comfortable as possible.
About: I am a animal lover, I've worked with rescue animals. I house and baby sit for my Grand furs, and I have found it easier for the animal in their environment. I do have 1 dog and 2 cats. I know trusting someone with your animals can be an uneasy feeling but I will update and send photos if you like! Caring for animals is something I really enjoy and I spoil them like I do my own. I feel I could be a good fit for you and your pet needs. I currently work Monday thru Friday, 7am until 4pm. I can offer drop ins, walks and House/animal sitting in the evenings and Weekends. If you are close to work I can do lunch drop ins I currently do not keep dogs in my home. I have a senior dog that is old a grumpy, He does not care in the slightest to meet new dogs..lol
About: I’ve spent the last 22 years rescuing and rehabbing abandoned cats and dogs. I’ve also provided reliable, loving pet sitting and boarding for 19 years. That depth of experience has taught me one thing above all: every animal is different—and every one deserves care that honors who they are. From high-energy pups to anxious seniors, from playful kittens to quiet, special-needs cats—I meet them where they are. I learn their rhythms, their unique needs, and what makes them feel safe. Whether it’s a calm brushing session, an energetic walk, or just giving them space to warm up, I offer a steady, attentive presence. I’m experienced with administering oral and topical medications, and yes—I take deep-cleaning litter boxes seriously. I don’t just show up. I build trust. I believe great pet care is rooted in connection, consistency, and showing each pet that they’re loved and valued. And while you’re away, I’ll keep you in the loop with updates that feel like they’re from a trusted friend. I work full-time in dog and cat care, which means your pets get my full attention, time, and heart every day that you need it. I currently don’t offer care in my home, but I’m happy to come to yours—where your pets feel safest and most comfortable. I follow your routines closely, keep things calm and familiar, and always respect your space. Whether it’s locking up securely, cleaning up thoroughly, or taking notes on your pet’s preferences, I treat your home and animals with the same care I’d want for my own. Safety and trust are everything to me, and I’m committed to providing a peaceful, dependable presence you and your pets can count on.

When a pet stays at my home, they have access to the entire house unless they need to be separated per your request. I have different areas that can be blocked off if needed. I take the dogs out for a walk 2-3 times a day and will use the fenced back yard for play time and potty breaks in between. I can administer medications if any are needed and follow whatever feeding schedule you have set for your pet! If I am coming to your home, I will follow the routine you have set for your baby as closely as possible!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 123 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Grimes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Grimes. 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 Grimes 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 Grimes. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
