About: I’ve been around many types of animals all my life including exotic, farm animals, and house pets like cats and dogs. I love them all equally and would be happy to care for any pet! I currently work full time but typically have 3 days off a week. I will be going back to school in the fall but will still have availability. While I cannot currently look after pets in my own home, I am happy to accommodate most needs for any animal in their own home.

From energetic walks, calm stays and specialized feeding routines, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Reach out today to schedule a meet-and-greet! I am available to look after your pup at any time of the day or night. Because I am always around on my pet sitting days, your pet will receive constant attention, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship.To ensure your pup feels right at home, I just ask that you provide a clear description of their daily routine and care needs (feeding schedules, bathroom habits, or special quirks) when booking! I live in an incredibly welcoming, pet-friendly apartment complex surrounded by a safe, quiet neighborhood. My apartment itself is spacious, clean, and has plenty of room for your pup to stretch out, play, or curl up for a nap.Outside, we are blessed with beautiful green spaces and walking paths right at our doorstep, making it easy to go for long, leisurely walks.

About: When you entrust your pet to me, you're choosing someone whose career has been built on compassion, responsibility, and exceptional care. As a registered nurse with over 12 years of experience, I understand that every living being deserves individualized attention, patience, and a safe, nurturing environment. Caring for others is second nature to me. Throughout my nursing career, I've specialized in caring for seniors and individuals with unique medical and emotional needs. Those same skills translate seamlessly to pet care. Whether your pet is a playful puppy or kitten, a senior needing extra patience, requires medication, has special needs, or simply thrives with extra love and attention, I have the experience and confidence to provide attentive, reliable care. Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has always been more than a job—it's a passion. In addition to nursing, I own and operate my own concierge nursing and pet care business, where trust, professionalism, and personalized service are the foundation of everything I do. I know leaving your pet behind can be stressful. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind by treating your dog or cat like a member of my own family. You'll receive dependable communication, regular updates, and the reassurance that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all pet care. Every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved from the moment they arrive. My commitment is to provide the same level of compassion, attention, and professionalism that I would want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a nurse three days a week, which allows me plenty of flexibility and dedicated time on my days off to focus on pet care. On my off days, I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for by making sure they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and any needed special care or medication. Because I’m used to working in a caregiving profession, I’m very organized and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide dependable, unhurried care so each pet gets the attention they deserve, whether that’s extra walks, cuddle time, or sticking closely to their normal routine. I provide flexible, reliable, and attentive care both in my home and in my clients’ homes, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I offer drop-in visits, daily care, and overnight stays, as well as boarding in my own home where pets are welcomed into a safe, calm, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and any special routines are handled with consistency and care. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care throughout the day. In all settings, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine love. I also believe in clear communication, so I provide regular updates and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is always to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

“Gary is always on time and you can immediately tell he is a professional dog walker. He dresses and handles my 60 lbs. dogs like a true alpha. He makes sure to keep them safe while walking them. My mother-in-law drove by him while he was walking out dogs and she told me he moved them aside (there is no sidewalk) and paid attention to his surroundings. He knows dog behavior so he teaches me about them and why they do what they do. Hands down a true and reliable dog walker.”

About: Hello! My name is Victoria and I am a part time college student, full time animal lover. I have had pets all my life (dogs, a cat, fish, hermit crabs, and a bunny) and have yet to meet an animal I don’t love. Aside from my own pets, I have cared for (overnight stays, walks, daytime drops ins) for friends and family’s pets since I was in high school. Being that I only go to school part time, I have more time to spend with and care for my dog, and hopefully your furry friend too. I have personal experience with dogs as small as chihuahuas and as big as pit bulls and do not discriminate against any of them. On top of that, I have experience with dogs as young as two months old. I look forward to working with you and your furry friends!

About: Craft an engaging "About Me" Tell pet owners about the love and care you’ll provide for their pets. Don’t be afraid to brag about your pet care experience, special skills, your personal qualities, and how you will keep their pets happy and safe. What sorts of activities will a dog enjoy on a stay with you? Where will you go on walks? What fun activities will you do together? What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences? Do you know dog first aid and/or CPR? Yes No Can you administer oral medication to dogs? Yes No Can you administer injected medication to dogs? Yes No Do you have experience taking care of senior dogs? Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. In a client’s home, I respect and follow each owner’s routines, feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I am mindful of their behavior, body language, and safety during walks and visits, and I always ensure pets have fresh water, supervision, affection, and a clean environment. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I provide updates, photos, and check-ins to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, supported, and confident in the care being provided.

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 Heathcote. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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.

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.
