About: I grew up with dogs and found a love for them at an early age. I always had labrador retrievers but love all dogs. I have been dog walking since middle school and now I am currently a rising junior at Wayne State University and love all pets but love dogs specifically:) I have been dogsitting consistently for family and friends over the years and love taking care of all pets:) I am currently a student at Wayne State University and my days are pretty open and have lots of time to take care of your pets:) I do not have a fenced yard, but am very comfortable taking any dogs out on a leash and am comfortable having your pup sleep with me or can have them in a crate.
“Peyton was absolutely wonderful! I’m so thankful she was able to help me when I needed it the most. She was incredibly sweet and kind, both to me and to Georgia, and I felt so comfortable having Georgia in her care. She kept me updated constantly and sent me lots of pictures, which I absolutely LOVE because being able to see Georgia while I’m away gives me so much peace of mind. 🥹 She took such great care of her, and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed spending time with Georgia too! She was so easy and fun to work with, and I had such a great experience with her. I would 100% recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again. I’m so grateful for all her help! ❤️🐶”

I am currently in-between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I'm available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate care on an as-needed basis.

I'm comfortable allowing dogs to roam freely indoors, as long as they are well trained and have previous exposure to being left alone outside of their crate.

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.
