“Kade took care of our pup and new kitten when we were in a pinch for a sitter. They took the time out of their schedule for a meet and greet and had no problem following our care instructions. Our pup and kitten took to them immediately and we felt so reassured they were safe under Kade’s care! Thank you so much Kade for your help, and we would absolutely recommend booking Kade for any of your sitting needs!”


“Kate made our first Rover experience amazing. Our dog was well taken care of with a great walk and feeding. The pics we got were super thoughtful and it was really comforting to see our pup so happy while we were gone. Highly recommend her and will be rebooking when needed! Thanks so much Kate!”


“Krista is incredibly reliable and considerate. She has been walking our pups 1-2 times weekly for 8 months now! Our whole zoo (2 dogs and 2 cats) feel safe with her, and look forward to their weekly head scratches, playtime, and treats with her. I appreciate that she pays special attention to each animal’s different personality and needs. Krista sends us updates on how the animals are acting and if she notices anything unusual. It’s especially reassuring since one of our dogs has high anxiety. I feel very comfortable knowing my animals are in great hands when I’m at work or out of town. 11/10 would recommend!!”


“Devinder is great with my dog. He takes the time to connect with Baloo and gives him the mid-day attention and care needed while I'm at work. Devinder is very reliable and is very good at communicating. I would highly recommend!”


“It was a great help to us and Cloby was happy with her. They connected from the first moment and Cloby felt confident with her.”


“Very punctual very professional”

“Kayley has been so patient and sweet to my Ellie, even when Ellie hasn’t been the sweetest to her. She makes sure the pups are as comfy and happy as can be!”


“Kristen was a life saver! I pulled a back muscle this morning and could hardly walk. Kristen was able to fit me in and make sure my pup got a good walk.”


“I forgot to book my walks for the week and I work 12 hour shifts, so it is imperative that my tiny guy ( who refuses to go inside on puppy pads) be taken out. Bridgette saved the day, even with such short notice. My dog also loves her. I definitely recommend her to anyone.”


“Taylor was so good with my Kona girl. So attentive and I know Kona enjoyed seeing her these last few days for a daily walk.”


“I love booking Sydney as a repeat walker for my little dog! She’s been flexible and reliable and I will definitely book her services again in the future. My dog was so excited to see her again!”


About: I first began pet-sitting with dogs & cats around my neighborhood when I was 11, and since then I’ve met a wide array of pet personalities that I’ve learned to handle with the utmost care and respect. I’m a college student working part-time this summer, so I have plenty of time to spend taking care of furry friend(s)! My availability is open on the weekends, as well as Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Although I’m typically busy Tuesday and Thursday evenings, I can shift my schedule around to accommodate your pet’s needs. I have a sweet Calico named Mimi at home who I love to brush and feed daily, with special attention devoted to her diet and litter since she has a medical condition. For any pet, I’d be willing to devote as much care and energy as I would for my own because I try to provide all animals I encounter with the love and respect they deserve. I take my client’s boundaries around their homes and pets very seriously, and I do my best to follow the instructions provided to a tee.

“Cat is awesome! She sends detailed updates regularly and I always feel at ease leaving my pup in her hands. Cat has always been a great help and would definitely recommend!”


“Candace was always on time and left detailed reports and took multiple pictures after each walk. Best Rover experience I’ve ever had. She will definitely be my go-to anytime I need a dog walker.”


“Keith did an amazing job! He communicated very well with me while watching my baby. He has the same dog breed as mines ( a mini schnauzer) and he walked them together which I think was really sweet since i mentioned I felt like my puppy needed more contact with other dogs. I will definitely be booking again ❤️”


“Kirby came by to let Gunner out at an extremely last minute notice!”


About: We have taken care of all kinds of animals for years and are currently the happy owners of a rescue dog named Finn. My wife and I rescued him in 2021 when he was 8 weeks old. My wife has owned, rescued, and ridden horses for most of her life and has some vet level experience with animals. My wife and I are both teachers, so we are home early each day. Our weekday afternoons are free with a ton of flexibility. We both have the summer off so we can devote all day to your fur babies! We are free almost every weekend! We will be home all day during the week starting in the summer, We are able to tag team and constantly have someone with your beloved pet at all times of the day. In May we are out of the house from around 7:00-2:00 on weekdays We have plenty of space in our house, it’s a small house but has an empty bedroom, and also a big fenced in backyard! We put up a brand new 6 foot privacy fence so your pups will feel safe when having fun in the sun!

We've used Rover a few times previously and Bridgette was the best yet! She was so quick to respond and very flexible with our schedule (even being last minute). Our pup can be a bit vocal and hard to warm up to strangers but he loved Bridgette from the get go and she kept up with his active lifestyle! 11/10 will be reaching out again

I couldn't be happier with the care my pets babies receive from our wonderful sitter. She is incredibly reliable, always showing up when expected and following through on every request with attention and dedication. What truly sets her apart is the genuine love and compassion she shows for my pets—they adore her, and I can see they feel safe and happy in her care. She consistently goes above and beyond, doing everything I ask with great care and responsibility. She's also flexible, which has been a lifesaver more than once when my schedule changed unexpectedly. Most importantly, I trust her completely—both with my beloved pets and in my home. I’m truly grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring, and I look forward to a long relationship with her. Highly recommend!

Rachel is amazing. She is sweet with my boy and uber reliable. Her care of my dog gives me great peace of mind when I travel!!!

I am very happy with her. She did a wonderful job walking my Joey. She is available whenever I need her. My pup came back so happy and tired. She is a very sweet person and I am glad to have her.

Kristen was a life saver! I pulled a back muscle this morning and could hardly walk. Kristen was able to fit me in and make sure my pup got a good walk.

Katherine is wonderful! Clearly a dog lover - she takes extra care and time to get to know your pup and make them feel comfortable around her. We use her for daily walks and are so glad we found her.

Kyla is the best! I have used her several times now and she has been so helpful. Can’t wait to book with her again.

Chloe is an excellent dog walker. She is extremely reliable and steps up when she was confronted with a difficult situation. The key to my apartment was not working so she went to the management office and worked with them to get new batteries installed in the door lock. I would highly recommend her.

Punctual, reliable, and dependable. Abigail is warm and friendly while being exceptionally professionally competent and immediately put me at ease. Abigail consistently provided updates, is an excellent communicator, and established a genuine rapport with my dogs. Appreciate her time and will definitely book her again!

Cindy was responsible and caring for our dog. She worked with us to support changes in the schedule and communicated clearly when this came up. She made appropriate decisions when hot weather became an issue. Highly recommend Cindy!

Anna is amazing! Great communication and obviously a natural talent with dogs. My two kiddos enjoyed her care and I would recommend her to anyone!

Thank you for being responsive, professional, and taking great care of my buddy. Excellent dog walker!

Janie is not just a sitter but a life saver as well! Thank you for humility talent and kindness! See ya soon!

Sophie was great with my dog and was super nice with her when she was scared to go outside due to the stormy weather. She sends pictures and updates during each walk so you know your dog is being well taken care of. Definitely recommend Sophie!

My dog was very happy after her walk, and I enjoyed seeing the pictures of their neighborhood adventure!

Elizabeth walked my little guy twice in a day & he loved it! He was very relaxed for the rest of the day. I’m glad to have found her when I did and she helped me last minute. I’d book again soon!

Leanne is amazing! She’s so kind to my doggie and goes out of her way to make sure she gets everything she needs.

Annika is awesome! She was so sweet and engaged with my pup, she took her for a long walk and gave me updates and pics. She also communicated quickly and efficiently. Definitely recommend her!

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
