About: I have had pets in my home since I was a child. I had a senior dog I took care of for six years. I am very comfortable with dogs at all stages or any handicaps. I am home throughout the day and all evening with a flexible schedule. My home is relaxing with plenty of space. The fenced in yard is big and a pile of perfect sticks are waiting to be played with. The neighborhood is away from main roads and safe. I do have cameras in the home to keep an eye on things if I run errands. I have a fenced in large yard for safety if your furry friend stays here. I also have a private inside area if they need some downtime. I only have a couple steps into the home. If I visit them then all rules are strictly adhered too. I provide a lot of love and care, making sure they are calm, happy and safe. I tend to care for 4-6 dogs at a time. Many are high energy so your dog should be comfy with that environment. Lazy, sleepy dogs do well with it. I love to have Meet&Greets. I want you to feel comfortable with my space. If it turns out you are not on board 100%, I understand and have no hard feelings. The safety and happiness of your pet is everyone’s focus. Taking care of pets is my full time job so I am home based. I have a couple day care dogs during the work week and spend most of my day with them. I will follow through with your training and rules. Pets are spoiled with attention. I have a box of toys and treats for them. I will provide photos and videos plus regular updates.
“She was great on short notice while we were at a hotel and they loved her! She came in and got to know them then they loving body slammed her everyday on arrival they were so excited!”
“Jana has been great to work with, all the more so given that our dog is a rescue who was abandoned and suffers from an abandonment complex, albeit less so since getting Jana's guidance. We highly recommend Jana, especially so if you also have a dog with similar issues.”
“Brooke was amazing!! She came to walk Tela within a half hour of my request and get her great exercise! Would definitely recommend her and will be rebooking with Brooke very soon! Thanks for taking such great care of my puppy!”
“Kennedy was wonderful to work with. We booked her a bit last minute and she was able to make it work. She was very communicative and while we didn’t have a chance to meet in person I felt very comfortable having her walk my dog, Brewer, who is truly my favorite creature in the world. I will definitely be booking with Kennedy in the future. Thank you!!”
“We feel so lucky to have found Cara! From the very first walk, it was clear that she genuinely cares about Kevin and treats him like one of her own. Kevin absolutely lights up when she arrives! Cara is reliable, communicative and always goes the extra mile - whether sending the sweetest photo updates, or taking the time to give him a little extra love and play. Knowing he’s in such caring hands brings us so much peace of mind. It’s such a comfort knowing Kevin is not just walked, but truly cared for. Cara’s kindness, energy, and attention to detail make all the difference. We can’t imagine a better person to trust with our Kevin! Thanks Cara 🩷”
About: I have grooming, training, & boarding experience. I’m experienced in administering medications; pills, eye drops, shots, etc. Animals are my peace so I’d love to give a peace of mind to others😊 I’m available full time, there are currently 6 dogs & 2 cats in my house & the pups get outside about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I also have a 3 year old whos with me 3 days out of the week. I have a fenced in yard, all of my pups & my sisters are crated when not supervised. I would prefer crates brought when staying with me just for safety reasons! & if I were to watch your pup in your hone they’d get the same love & care they receive from you😊
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m heavily involved in volunteering and fostering with local rescues and shelters, with a special love for herding breeds and cats. My own dog is a Rough Collie who actively competes in dog sports and is currently working toward multiple titles. Training and enrichment are a big part of my everyday life, and I regularly work with high-energy working breed fosters in my home. Whether it’s walks, training sessions, dog sports, playtime, or down time, caring for animals is truly what I love most. Genuinely… like it’s my full-time job outside of my full-time job. My schedule is pretty flexible! I can do morning and evening visits during the week, plus sometimes a quick lunchtime drop-in while I’m on break for work. Weekends are wide open for longer visits or walks! I always care for pets the way I do my own — with patience, structure, and lots of love. In your home, I make sure to follow your routine closely so your pets feel secure and comfortable. I keep things clean, double-check doors and leashes, and make sure everyone gets the right mix of play, exercise, and rest. Whether it’s a shy cat or a high-energy pup, I take time to understand their personality and build trust so they feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Paige responded to my request last minute, she was very punctual and kind in honoring a last-minute booking. My parents dog had a wonderful time walking with her and we are very grateful to her!”
About: I have been passionate about pet care since I was very young. I take care of all kinds of animals! From ferrets and rabbits, fish, cats, and of course dogs. I worked at a vet clinic for some years and learned a great deal and acquired valuable experience! I also went to school and got certified as a professional dog trainer and have been doing that off and on for the past 5 years. I fostered shelter dogs and puppies for a long time. Even raising litters of foster puppies and kittens at times! Dogs are my true passion and I have a lot of knowledge on the subject. I will handle reactive or difficult dogs and breeds with confidence and ease. My first dog was quite reactive towards other dogs so I am very familiar and comfortable with the attention and management that requires. Don’t worry about it! If you have had trouble with sitters due to your pets behavior and/or difficulties, I am your person! I will watch any animal with any temperament or any difficulty. I have most recently been working at dog grooming salon for the last 1.5 years so I am able to provide grooming services as well! My whole life revolves around taking care of animals so your schedule will fit right in! Just let me know what works best for your animals! Crating or keeping dogs or different animals separate is no issue for me, I can give medication, do routine walks or make sure they are exercised in their own yard if needed. Just let me know your expectations and I will make it happen.
“Lee took great care of our older dog. He is easy to work with, reliable, communicative, and responsive. We’ve used Lee before and will continue to do so. Highly recommended.”
“Brenna was absolutely wonderful! She was on time, even went the extra mile and arranged a meet and greet beforehand. She is so friendly and you can tell she just loves animals ❤️ we will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have owned pets all of my life. Over the years, I have owned dogs, cats, chinchillas, and conures. Pets are members of your family, not just animals living in your house! I am 65 years old and I currently substitute teach part time. I would be very flexible with hours to visit to your home and when I come see your pet; I will treat them as if they were my own.

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 Heathwood. 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 Heathwood.

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 Heathwood. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
