“Lori was awesome. She took great care of our 11 year old Shitzu. She gets very sad when we leave so it was great to know someone that was going to spend some time with her to make sure she ate and felt save. Will use her anytime we leave town moving forward!”
“Amy was so good with my boy and punctual with her appointment. Sent me many photos and was very helpful for me and my busy schedule. Will use again. Highly recommend. 13/10”
About: I've cared for dogs of every kind and age since I was about 8 years old. Family, neighbors, and friends have always relied on me to help care for and love their pets, knowing I would do anything and everything for a dog. From training new puppies to giving that little extra care to seniors, I love doing it all! Currently I’m not busy full time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for home visits and play on weekdays anytime from 7am - 3:30pm. I provide safe, attentive, and loving care for every pet during home visits and playtime. With that, I follow feeding schedules, give fresh water, clean up messes, provide playtime and love, monitor health and behavior, as well as keep owners updated with lots of messages and photos.
About: I have taken care of many breeds of dogs since I was young. I grew up in a house with dogs my whole life and currently own a Golden Retriever I have a fairly flexible work schedule which allows me to help out during the week! I will be around most weekends day and night as well. I have a two year old golden retriever that I walk about 4-5 miles a day. We have a big open field and a dog park available.
“Tyler was the first person I used on this app to come walk my dog while I was at work. She took so many pictures while on the walk and gave me a very detailed report on how it went! I’m very happy that she’s the first (and hopefully the only ?) person I chose for this job!”
About: I provide attentive, reliable care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from high-energy 90-pound Belgian Malinois to sweet 10-pound senior Shih-Tzus. Working with dogs is a major part of my daily life, and I am confident handling everything from active pups who need structured exercise to senior dogs who require patience and gentle support. I currently work at a professional dog training facility, where I walk, handle, and care for dogs every day. This experience has given me strong skills in reading canine body language, managing different energy levels, and maintaining safe, structured routines. I am comfortable following training plans and reinforcing positive behaviors to ensure consistency while your dog is in my care. I am also a proud rescue dog owner. My Husky mix has been my sidekick for the past two years, and caring for her has strengthened my understanding of consistency, positive reinforcement, and building trust. No task is too big or too small when it comes to your pet’s well-being. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, medication administration, or simply companionship, I approach every visit with responsibility, attentiveness, and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and ensure you feel confident and at ease while they are in my care. I work part-time, which allows me a very flexible schedule. I’m available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and can also accommodate consistent or last-minute bookings. I will follow any directions you provide exactly as provided. I know some dogs can be known to escape when owners are gone and your pet will be kept under watchful eye the whole time. There will be plenty of love given to your furry loved one.
“Michelle is sweet, dependable and great with our dog! She really spends the full 30 taking him for a walk and then eventually plays with him for a little bit afterwards before leaving! I know Butch is well taken care of and well loved when Michelle watches him!”
“Christelle is very sweet! First time using rover and she dropped in on Maui. She sent pictures of Maui in his natural habitat. You can tell Maui was very happy with her too! Will definitely be using her again!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, not just pets, but family. I grew up around dogs, volunteered with the Humane Society throughout college, and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs needing extra medical care. One of my huskies developed diabetes and eventually went blind, so I became very comfortable administering medications and injections, following strict routines, and giving patient, loving care. I lost my sweet Shih Tzu after 17 amazing years together, and now I have two spoiled pups of my own, Gracie and Lily. I truly understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every animal like they are my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available most weekends, with weekday availability on many days as well. I’m happy to work with pet parents whenever possible and always do my best to accommodate schedules, routines, and special care needs. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, energy levels, and personalities so each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I live in a very dog-friendly area in Fort Myers with plenty of space for walks, playtime, and exercise. I always prioritize safety, supervision, communication, and making sure your pet feels at home.
“Our dog was in excellent hands with Erika. She went above and beyond what was expected walking our energetic labrador retriever twice a day while we were away, sending updates and pictures. We were very happy with how it went and will definitely hire her again.”
“Ella is absolutely amazing! She came thru when I needed to go out of time for work. She went above and beyond for my puppy Ollie! She stayed in constant communication with me when she was with him and it made me feel relieved that Ollie was in great hands while I was away from him. I would definitely recommend Ella for your pup and she is for sure my go to for Ollie!!”
About: I have been a pet owner since I was 10 years old. I love cats and dogs and birds and just all animals. I love to take dogs on walks, love to spend time petting and caring for animals I’m currently retired and so I have lots of time to care for pets. I love animals and look forward to caring for them. Thank you I am able to take dogs on long walks. Also to sit and spend time playing with them and just giving them attention and love. I am also looking forward to giving affection and care to cats.
“Jillyn faced a really difficult challenge with this one, but she aced it. My dog had a rough start to life, so he has always been skittish around people. She took this on as a new client after my longtime sitter had passed away. Plus this was my first trip since my pup became an "only dog" a couple of years ago. She persisted in working with him and I remained 100 percent confident while away that my best buddy was in trusted hands.”

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Harlem Heights. 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 Harlem Heights.

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 Harlem Heights. On Rover:
- 92% 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.
