“Ian did a great job filling in for a few noontime walks for my young (still learning and sometimes reactive) hound. Thank you for the feedback and photos. And thank you for a tired pup!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, including caring for my own cat and helping care for a friend’s senior age Chihuahua. I have also volunteered at a animal shelter in Blacksburg, VA. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, litter box care, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m patient and attentive to each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I understand that some pets need lots of attention while others need a little more space. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule gives me flexibility to provide consistent pet care throughout the week. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting depending on the timing and needs of each pet. I’m happy to work with owners on a schedule that keeps their pets comfortable and maintains their normal routine while they’re away I take pet safety seriously and will follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, routines, and any house rules. I’m attentive to pets’ behavior and comfort and won’t force interaction if they need space. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away
“Jhonathan is awesome! I had a last minute emergency and he was able to squeeze my 2 pups into his schedule, during a holiday no less. Provided detailed information on their walks and sent photos at each visit. My dogs were happy and exhausted when I returned so I know they had a great time! Would definitely use again!”
“Jeana is thoughtful and caring with our doggies! I really am lucky for having her as our dog walker. You’re amazing! Thank you so much Jeana! I highly recommend her.”
“Joy is wonderful! She’s walked my dog many times now. She’s always on time, always prompt to accept the walk-requests, takes cute photos, and takes great care of my pup (always making sure he gets food and water and a treat on her visit). Highly recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life! I’ve also been a dog owner my whole life so I am very familiar with dogs. Built on trust, driven by love and dedicated to exceptional care! I am currently a stay at home military wife who has plenty of time for individualized and attentive care. I can be flexible with your schedule as needed. I have a fenced in yard, that is well care for and cleaned nightly. And I also have a wonderful 4.5 goldendoodle who is great with other dogs!
“Erin was fantastic and sweet with my Lucky. I asked her to come slightly earlier than the app would allow and she obliged. She left a cute picture of their walk and a funny note afterwards. I highly recommend Erin!”
About: I am full-time working from home now, so since I’ve got some extra time I would love to take care of your dog! We have a dog, cat, and 1 year old baby here but would love to have someone else over to play. We have a large fenced in back yard, perfect for running around or relaxing in the sun. I would also love to pick your dog up and take it on a walk. I am available all day at home. We love dogs, have relied on Rover sitters a lot, and would love to help you out! Please let me know if you would like to come for a meet and greet! Our lives have revolved around our pets for many years. Taking care of them is the first thing we do when we wake up and they are top of mind all day long. Our dog enjoys spending a lot of time outside, but if your dog wants to shadow me that’s great too! I am happy to accommodate any care requirements
“Wow. Stephanie was the most amazing dog walker! She treated Kennedy like her own and was so responsive throughout the entire week. I will definitely go back to only Stephanie moving forward and I am glad we finally found a reliable and experienced dog walker! Thank you, Stephanie!!”
“Sienna was a great help to us! We booked her for a 30 minute walk a few days last week. She was on time, professional, and conscientious of our dog's needs by refreshing water and giving him a snack. Sienna even showed some extra TLC on the last day when her schedule allowed for her to take our dog on a longer walk! Bandit loves her and we are very pleased with the excellent service Sienna provided. We will definitely be re-booking with her in the near future!”
“Mounia was fantastic! Great communication throughout, lots of photos, and really patient with both me and my pup - which is especially appreciated since we just moved to the neighborhood. Will definitely book again!”
“Amy takes wonderful care of our Pup, taking him on long walks and always making sure they get some time by the river! She is flexible and accommodating, highly recommend!”
About: Experienced pet care provider with a passion for happy, healthy furry friends! Skilled in puppy training, I bring patience and positive reinforcement to every walk and play session. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and fun are my top priorities! I’m a stay at home mom, my time is very open which makes it great for lots of walks and play time. I have a dog of my own who I take to the dog park often so this would fit in perfectly with our routine. Lots of toys to choose from, happy doggy to join us! My family is welcoming of all friendly furry friends. I can fit any need you have for your special one just ask.
About: I've had dogs throughout my life growing up and have loved every minute of it! I grew up around big dogs but have cared for a variety of dog sizes and breeds. I don’t have a pet, so I'm hoping to create some strong and consistent relationships potentially with your pet. You get the quality care needed for your four-legged family member and I get some much-needed dog time! I'm currently a grad student and ideally would like to get into a regular routine between classes. I'm hoping to find some pet care opportunities a couple of times a week in the mornings/evenings and on the weekends. Ideally, I would prefer to take care of your pet where they are most comfortable, especially in their own home. In my experience I have found the dogs I care for to be less anxious when they are somewhere they are familiar with. My apartment is on the small side, so ideally I would only accept well trained, calm, smaller dogs. Before taking care of your fur baby, I prefer to discuss their care needs so that you and I feel confident about the match. I genuinely love and respect dogs and want you to feel trust in me during your time away from them.
About: I love animals so much! I am mindful and considerate of pet of all kind I connect with both people and pets very well in different environments. I'm respectful and understanding towards the needs of the pets and their owner. Thank you for trusting me Availability is early mornings 6am-9am drop ins afternoons 10-5pm and 5pm - 10pm. Let me know questions you may have I may be flexible. I’d prefer to house-sit at rather than board, but I’m open to discussing it. I have an open living room with space for a crate or dog, a spare-room bed, and a backyard. Please provide details about morning and evening meals and any required medication. :) I can take walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening, with additional walks
“Alice was a wonderful dog walker. Her attention to details on how giving care for your pup will be notch. She was also very responsive and good with communication leaving you worry free regarding the care of your dog. Alice was very punctual and very attentive. My do definitely enjoyed and appreciate her company during visits. I highly recommend her assistance and we personally will definitely re-book her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Groveton
Absolutely lovely! Very accommodating and thorough. Gentle and kind with my baby any conversational. Early. Always on time. And communicative. I dont trust many people with my girl. He has been an extreme help in many ways and deserves everything that he works for and more. WONDERFUL person and just a genuinely nice guy.
Richard took Ted on two separate walks this evening, and Ted loved both. He is punctual, detail oriented and very dependable, as well as friendly and easy to communicate with. He also took lots of great pictures, which I really appreciated. A neighbor even ran into him while he was out with Ted and told me how great he was, too. He’s sure to become an all star dog walker in North Old Town. Highly recommend!

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 Groveton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
