“Great experience! It was my first time using Rover and Fernanda made it seamless. She was great at communicating throughout the entire session. Lydia loved her walk and there was no accidents in the house :)”
“I couldn’t be happier with Melissa! She is always punctual, respectful, and sweet with my dogs. I WFH but don’t have time to walk them most weekdays so it gives me peace of mind knowing Melissa gives my dogs time to be outside! She takes the cutest pictures of them during walks—it brightens my day and reassures me that they’re happy and well cared for.”
“Sarahi was incredible with my dog Eisley. My dog was immediately comfortable with her and was excited for walk time everyday. Would absolutely book her again and the only reason she is not helping any longer is because I am moving.”
“Alexander is amazing! He really loves dogs and shows so much love and care for our pup, Benji. We are so happy with his service! He gives us detailed updates each time and we are so thankful and relieved to know Benji is in great hands. :)”
“Adelle has been amazing with drop ins and walking my 2 big dogs! I work long days, and didn’t want them to be left alone all day. She follows their routine exactly and they are so happy when I get home from work each day. She genuinely cares about animals and I have complete trust in her with my dogs.”
“Daniel was fantastic with Jack! He was always on time and super reliable during the two weeks I was away. With Glenn working 6/10 shifts, Dan’s daily walks gave Jack a much-needed break and helped us out a lot. We’re really grateful for the care and consistency— we’ll definitely be using him again. Highly recommend!”
“Teju did a great job with Luna, who instantly liked her. Teju was kind, attentive, and clearly great with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving Luna in her care and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Abrian was awesome!!! We used Abrian for his excellent dog walking services, for over a week, and he was just superb!! Our dog clearly loved him, and Abrian was so caring. He came on time every time, sent photos, spent time with dog, and we could tell, he truly loved our dog/animals as his own! We highly recommend Abrian! He is positive, professional, and all around wonderful dog watcher/walker. We will definitely use Abrian again.”
“Lori is very communicative & my dog is at ease with her. We boarded her for the first time & it seems my dog didn’t seem worried or anxious when we got back. Thank you Lori! I know I don’t have to worry when I book in advance because she always remembers & is timely in her responses.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have nearly 7 years of dog sitting experience starting in middle school. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities and I pride myself on being extremely attentive, reliable, and detail oriented with every pet. I have experience handling multiple dogs at once including caring for up to five dogs for 7+ days, so I’m very comfortable with both longer stays in higher-energy households. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide consistent updates so you can feel confident and not ease while you’re away. I’m a student at Virginia Tech with a flexible schedule, typically having at most two classes a day. Outside of class, I spent most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My routine makes it easy for me to incorporate walks, feeding, playtime, and check-in consistently. I’m able to adapt to each pets needs and schedule, whether that means early mornings, midday visits, or evening care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet friendly apartment with a fence dog area, so dogs have a safe place to get outside and play. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are always supervised and cared for based on their specific needs and routines. I also keep owners updated regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.

I booked Emily to walk my dog once a day, for multiple days while I’m at work. She took time to come by for a meet and greet beforehand, asked questions about my dog’s routine, where he walks and talked about her process. You can tell she loves dogs! Oh, and she’s also super professional and sends a full report and pics after each walk. So glad I found her on here and have already booked her for more walks. Thank you, Emily!
My family was very happh with Ji Ung and Hyunjoo taking care of our dog Toast :) They were very nice from the moment we met them and we werr able to explain both on the website as well as inperson any comments or extra details about what Toast might need. They would even send us a couple of videos here and there of him eating or playing which reassured us how well he was taken care of. Thank you both again for taking care of him so well!
Ingrid is an excellent dog walker! She has taken care of our puppy very well on each and every walk and has provided us detailed information on how she is doing, especially while recovering from illness. We recommend her service to anyone who needs closer care, love and attention to their pets!
We booked another service with Paige for several days and she took the absolute best care of our pup! She provided consistent updates, was on time for each visit, and followed his daily routine without difficulty. We were traveling for holidays, so our minds were even more at ease knowing our pup was happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend booking with Paige!
Fatima was fantastic with our dog! She demonstrated great skill in walking our 50 pound, curious, high energy dog around our neighborhood. Fatima showed great care and compassion towards our dog as well. Our dog was wagging her tail and was enthusiastic to be with Fatima. She really seemed to like interacting with Fatima! We would definitely request Fatima again for future dog care thru Rover!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 15,243 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ivakota. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Ivakota. 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 Ivakota.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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 Ivakota. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
