“This is our second time working with Sora for our puppy Hans. Would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a thoughtful, responsible, and communicative person to watch their pup!”
“Ryan dealt wonderfully with my very nervous and untrusting rescue puppy. Although the walk did not go as planned, he did an excellent job of communicating the issues with me and handling the situation professionally and calmly. Thank you for all your help!”
“Ken has been great. He’s communicates with me and came and met me and Moose before to make sure it was the right fit. My mind is at ease knowing he’s walking Moose when I’m at work. I highly recommend him!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life! I've volunteered with and fostered for local dog rescues, in addition to raising dogs of my own, giving me experience with puppies, seniors, and dogs with a variety of personalities and needs. My fiancé works remotely from home full-time, and I work a hybrid schedule as a physician assistant, so there's almost always someone home for companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. We currently share our home with our friendly 2-year-old Golden Retriever and our sweet 12-year-old Bernedoodle, who love making new friends. With a fully fenced backyard and a neighborhood full of scenic trails, your pup will enjoy lots of exercise, sniffari adventures, and, of course, plenty of love. We can't wait to welcome your dog into our home! I am currently working as a Physician Assistant at a telehealth company and work a hybrid schedule. My fiance works in consulting and has a fully remote job. Therefore, we will both be home most days during the workday. We typically wake up and take our pups on a long walk each morning during the week and weekends. We have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups at home including a 12 year old Bernedoodle and 2 year old golden retriever. The Golden absolutely loves having friends over. We have a crate if needed for your pup.
About: I've grown up around various breeds of dogs, cats, and a few different animals in between! I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give each pet. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I have experience with senior dogs and medication giving as well. Communication is key, therefore you'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages after each visit or walk if preferred. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs and happy to meet you and your fur baby in advance. I'm reliable, patient, and detail-oriented, and I'll treat your pets like they're my own. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with confidence, knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. During the week most of my availability is afternoons/evenings and occasional mornings. My work schedule is sporadic! On most weekends when I'm not working, my day is pretty much open! Reach out with days and times and we can see if we can find a way! Unfortunately, we had to make one of the toughest decisions of letting our Sargey boy go this past June. In my heart, I am not ready to start over quite yet but would love to be an honorary dog friend! I truly enjoy getting out for some sunlight and fresh air and would love for your pup to join me or if your pet prefers a round of fetch that is perfectly ok as well!
“Melina did wonderful with Willow; she warmed up to Melina almost immediately. Melina also provided plenty of updates with pictures so I was never worried about my little girl.”
About: I'm the proud owner of Layla, my 6-year-old Great Pyrenees, so I know big breeds well. I've cared for dogs from family and friends — from playful puppies to gentle seniors — and I understand that every dog is different, with their own needs and personality. I love giving each pup safe, attentive, and affectionate care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I'm able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care throughout the day. Pet care isn't something I have to squeeze in around other commitments — it's a priority I can build my day around, whether that's regular walks, sticking to feeding and potty schedules, or just spending quality time with a dog so they're never left alone too long. My availability means I can be reliable and consistent for both walks and in-home sitting. When caring for your dog in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow the feeding, walking, and potty schedule you set, and make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. Every dog is different, so I keep a close eye on their behavior and needs and always put their comfort and safety first. On walks, I keep dogs securely leashed, stick to familiar routes, and adjust the pace and distance to fit their age, energy level, and breed. I'll also send updates and photos so you can relax while you're away.
“Isabella was absolutely amazing. We booked her to walk our lab for a week straight while we were on vacation and she was on time (early which is always appreciated), very communicative, and was so good with our doggo. We ended up adding an additional dog walk for another dog that was at the house where ours was staying, and Isabella was okay with it and did phenomenal with both dogs in the end. Would highly highly recommend to anyone and we will utilize her in the future!”
“Lauren helped us out in a serious jam and fit us into her schedule at the last minute. She was very helpful in taking in packages and not minding how messy the house was 😀”
About: I owned and cared for pets my whole life and know that every animal deserves to feel safe, comfy and loved while you're away. I offer boarding in a cam, caring home as well as drop-in visits for cats and dogs. My schedule is very flexible, so I'm often available for same day or last minute bookings. I don't need advance notice, only for cancellations. Whether it's playtime, meals, meds, walks or just a little loving company. I'll treat your pet like my own. My goal is for you to have peace of mind and for your pet to have the care and attention they deserve. I live 15 minutes from Chatfield dog park and am more than happy to take your dog there for walks and exercise. Pet care is already part of my day. I build my routing around feeding times, walks, play breaks, and quick check-ins. I'm used to adjusting my schedule, so pets get steady care and attention throughout the day, and I keep owner updated as I go. In my home, I create a calm, safe space. I have a 6" fenced yard for play, a pet friendly dog and cat for company, and can crate your dog if that's what they need. When I'm in a clients home, I stick closely to your pet's routine, meals, walks, meds, and lots of attention, so things feel consistent. And if your pup loves adventures, I'm just 15 minutes from Chatfield Dog Park and happy to take them out for safe, fun exercise. I focus on clear communication and regular updates so you feel completely at ease while you're away.
About: I learned pet care from an early age from a dog loving family and then worked with the humane society and spent time with professional trainers. I am a retired school teacher with lots of free time! I love talking brisk, long walks with caninne companions and seeing mature up close. I live in a beautiful condo in Genesee. There is a ton of outdoor space and easy acces to trails. Great for dogs and humans.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, with it being cats, dogs, or even lizards, crabs, and rats. I enjoy quality time with any pet and learning what they need for care. I have trained dogs. I currently have a part-time job and school. I am available on most weekends, holidays, and weekdays! I perfer two days advance but can be very flexible for your needs. I live near many trails and a very walkable area so your dog will get as much exercise as needed. I also have two cats and a dog if your dog needs more company.

About: We have been around dogs for a very long time. As a couple, my wife and I, got our first dog in our wedding trip. Since then, we could not live without at least one dog in the house. We owned an English Cocker Spaniel, an American Cocker Spaniel, a Lab mix, a Dachshund, an American yellow Lab. We currently own a chocolate merle American Cocker Spaniel. We also take care of cats. We are retired, and available at all times during the day to love and care for your dogs and cats. We are performing our duties seriously, without skipping over anything. We are extremely careful about dogs' and cats' safety. We have medical training and on walks / trips we carry a backpack with medical emergency supplies. We like to think ahead and be prepared for any situation.
About: I am extremely patient and engaged and love getting to know each pet at their own pace. I am a dangly cat toy expert and strongly believe in play with both cats and dogs. I also send lots of pet pics because as a pet owner, I know that’s what we need when we are missing our pets. I have a flexible work remote job. I am able to check in am/lunch/pm/evening as needed and give your pet my full attention during that time :) I always give pets my full attention and engage in both the necessary tasks (food, water, litter box, walks, etc.) and enrichment activities (play, catnip, treats, etc.).
“Charlotte was fantastic! She gave our pup plenty of exercise, love, and attention while we were away for the day. We came back to a very happy dog. I would absolutely book with Charlotte again!”

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 Idledale. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
