About: I have always loved animals and aspired to be a veterinarian. I will genuinely care for your dogs and treat them as if they were my own. I am a full time school psychologist with a husband and two young children. I will be available to care for pets on weekends and evenings. If close enough to my work, I can let dogs out on my lunch break. I have a fenced yard with two dogs. A lab and golden retriever mix and a bichon/maltese. I also have two cats. We have structured feeding and time outside for the dogs. The cats are indoor and regularly have food out and balance their feeding over time. I can also do basic grooming.
About: I’ve cared for many types of animals of different shapes and sizes in various animal shelter, grooming, and veterinary settings. From pets, to livestock, and exotic reptiles. I’m currently a veterinary technician student as well. Your Companion deserves Time, Love, and Care and my purpose in life is to provide them that. I’m very passionate about this line of work. As a current full time Remote Veterinary student, I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available 5 days week in the mornings and afternoons. When I care for your pet in your home my routine is to treat them like family and your home like a sacred space. I am more than willing to respect all boundaries put in place in order to do my job properly. I am a helicopter pet parent so your little guy or gal is safe with me.
About: I have a certification in vet tech assistance. Also been walking dogs since I was 10 years old learning different training and obedience skills. I just thrive off of dogs they have always been my passion I want to become a dog trainer I’m available all day long through Monday and Friday morning and nights I love to work I will be on time to let your puppy’s out to do there business In clients homes I will crate them if needed I will play with them give them all the love and affection they need if they make messes I will clean them up specially when it’s muddy out
About: I provide dependable, personalized care with the added benefit of pre-veterinary experience, giving me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety. I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I'm a recent college graduate available full-time for the summer! I'd love to hang out with your beloved, four-legged friends during the week and/or weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In my clients’ homes, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special instructions. I also make sure pets feel secure through patience, positive interaction, and plenty of supervision, while always respecting the client’s home and keeping communication open with regular updates and photos.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a cat and a 3 year old pit/cattle dog mix. I have owned multiple dogs over the years, including reactive dogs, which gave me hands on experience with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I worked closely with a professional trainer in the past and gained a lot of confidence in handling and understanding dogs of all kinds. Because my entire family has dogs, I’m constantly around animals and genuinely love spending time caring for them. I understand that every pet is different and that some are energetic and social, while others need patience, structure, and a calm approach. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just having a comforting presence around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 7-4, however I am fully remote and my job is relatively flexible. Working from home makes life easy as I can take time on my lunch break to do a quick walk or drop in with your fur babies. I’m also available before 7am and after 4pm on weekdays and available on the weekends. I do get bank holidays off and a decent amount of PTO which allows even more flexibility 🙂 While I’d love to welcome every pet into my home, I have a reactive dog of my own, so I currently only offer care in clients’ homes through drop ins, walks, and house sitting. The safety and comfort of your pets and mine will always come first 💕
About: I have always had some kind of animal in my home and truly because they are so amazing. I have watched many different animals for different people for many years. I have done drop ins just to let dogs out, walked them, and just truly loved on them. I respect and give the best care to all of the animals I care for. I make sure to always keep the families updated because I know how hard it can be, but I promise your fur babies will be so loved! I am currently in school fully online for my bachelors in prekindergarten. I also am working at a school as an aide and completely love it. I’m really looking to fill my summer but also have some jobs during the fall! I will show the attention to your pet the second I walk in the door and always make sure I know what service I need to provide for the animal. My goal is to always make sure the animals are safe and taken care of. I will make sure to ask all of my questions before I show up so that I am able to give them the best care!

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. My passion began as a child with my poodle, Annie, and grew through my teen year with my pomeranian affectionately known as Cupcake. Those early bonds taught me what a dog needs most: patience, play, and tons of affection. Having spent years pet-sitting for friends and neighbors, I’m excited to bring that same family style care to your pups! Whether your dog is a high energy pup or a mellow gentle giant, I’ll tailor every visit to their specific needs. Looking forward to some new furry friends! 🐶 I’m currently home during the day as a new mom and would love to spend some of that time walking or checking in on your furry friends! I’m available anytime except 3-8pm on weekdays and I have full availability Friday through Sunday. I sometimes bring my baby along in a carrier, so your pet does need to be okay with small humans. I'm a lifelong pet lover and can't wait to meet your four legged family members! I am highly attentive to instructions and deeply respectful of your home and privacy. While I absolutely love the joy that comes with pet sitting, I recognize the level of responsibility it requires. I don't take your trust lightly; your pet will receive the highest quality of care and will be treated with the same love and devotion I give my own animals. I know how much you miss your furry family members while you're away! To give you peace of mind, I provide frequent photos during every visit. Unless you prefer fewer notifications, you can expect plenty of updates so you can see exactly how much fun we’re having and rest easy knowing they are in great hands. My goal is to keep you in the loop on all our adventures, ensuring you feel connected even when you’re apart.

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 Hamilton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Hamilton.

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 Hamilton. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
