About: Hi, I’m Kyree, a dedicated dog lover with one year of experience caring for dogs. I’ve dog sat before, including a week-long stay, and I’ve personally raised my own dogs to be well-behaved and smart through daily care, patience, and consistency. 🐾 Caring for dogs fits easily into my daily routine because I enjoy being outside and staying active. I plan to do this as a part-time job, and dog walking allows me to combine my love for dogs with exercise, fresh air, and positive interaction. When I care for dogs in a client’s home, I treat them like my own. On walks, I make sure they feel comfortable and safe, get plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, fresh water, and lots of positive attention while following the owner’s routine.
“Helen was absolutely amazing with Chombi! From the moment they met, I could tell Chombi felt comfortable and safe around her. She was attentive, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Helen kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind, and she went above and beyond to make sure Chombi was happy, well cared for, and sticking to her routine. When I got back, Chombi was relaxed and clearly had a great time. I would 100% trust Helen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. Thank you, Helen, for taking such great care of Chombi! 🐾💗”

About: I’ve been around dogs and other animals for most of my life. My family has always had pets, and I’ve personally owned and cared for multiple dogs over the years. I got my first dog, Coco, when I was 8 years old, and caring for her taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each pet’s unique needs. I’m currently a Biology student pursuing a career as a veterinarian and am actively completing veterinary clinical hours at a veterinary clinic. Through this experience, I’m gaining hands-on knowledge of animal care, behavior, health monitoring, and handling techniques. In high school, I was involved in FFA, where I raised and cared for a pig, giving me additional experience with animal husbandry and daily animal care responsibilities. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or attentive care while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect that I would my own pets. I am currently completing veterinary clinical hours on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM as part of my preparation for veterinary school. Outside of those hours, I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. Caring for animals is an important part of my future career goals, and I enjoy spending time with pets while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a veterinary extern and future veterinarian, I have experience working around animals in a clinical setting and understand the importance of monitoring behavior, appetite, activity level, and overall well-being. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines. I am comfortable cleaning up accidents, providing basic grooming and hygiene care, and giving pets the patience and attention they deserve. Every pet in my care will be treated with the same level of respect and compassion that I would give my own animals.

We really appreciate the quality and care she puts into each walk, she does an amazing job keeping our active dog engaged. Hazel now waits by the door every morning for her walking buddy and comes back happily tired and ready for a nap!”
“Erin did a great job walking Pepper! Pepper was excited to walk with her everyday she came. From Day 1, it was obvious that Erin loves puppies, which helped her to quickly bond with Pepper! Pepper is very energetic and so is Erin, so they were both able to walk at different speeds which was good exercise for her. I’m very pleased with Erin and plan to use her again next week!”

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.
