Shannon was wonderful!! She was flexible, and followed my “to-do” list to the letter. She made leaving our new puppy so much easier and she helped keep up with her “training”, which we so so appreciated. I would highly recommend this young lady to anyone needing pet care.

About: I am a pet lover who really enjoys to engage with animals. It is a form of therapy as well as exercise for both me and your fur. I have been around animals all my life. I enjoy being a caregiver for such an important part of your family. I have experience with show dogs, grooming, and dog behavior. My number one concern is giving the owner piece of mind that one’s pet is safe and cared for while the owner is away. A dogs surroundings is what makes that fur most comfortable. It will be an honor to serve you and your pet. Finally, I will provide you daily updates, pictures, and videos of the care and love I provide to your pet. Thank you for trusting me with an important part of your family

About: Welcome to Bed N. Biscuit Petcare!❤️ My name is Shayla (34 years old) and I am excited to share my petsitting journey/business with you. ▪️Get to know me: I was born and raised in Valdosta, GA. In my hometown, I volunteered at the local animal shelter for 4 years working with domestic, exotic and farm pets. I knew then animals was my love and enjoyment. Following my passion for animals, I moved to the city of Savannah where I graduated from Armstrong State University with a bachelors in Biology and volunteered at a local wildlife rehabilitation center. I have learned and developed my Veterinary skills and knowledge from working as a kennel technician caring for pets in a boarding environment then naturally transitioning to a Veterinary technician career at a general vet hospital and then later at a specialty practice that included oncology, neurology, physical therapy, internal medicine and also ER. I enjoy applying my years of experience to the well-being of animals and now offering pet care services. My dream home would be living on a farm but for now my husband (Antonio), our son (Levi) and I live with our pitbull mix (Oreo), pitbull puppy (Pixie), bearded dragon (Arlo) and a fish (Zira). When not volunteering or fostering, I can be found at dog parks with Oreo and Pixie or fishing with my husband and son. I currently work 3 days out the week at Pooler Vet Hospital and offer drop-in services around my work schedule and boarding in my home. ****Please continue to read to ensure full understanding of my business. Thank you for your interest and consideration. **** ————————————————————— [Bed N’ Biscuit’s Information] ▪️Complimentary Meet & Greet Meet & Greet (one): Drop-in meet & greet are done at the location the pet is needing care and scheduled upon our agreed date and time (video chat option also available). If you would like more than one meet & greet then a drop-in fee is applied. ▪️Drop-in Visits We offer 30 minute and 60 minute drop-in visits for pets (cats, dogs, chickens, fish, hamster/Guinea pig, horses, some reptiles). I care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. Great for potty/play breaks during long work schedules and extended vacations or for more sensitive/elder pets for example. Included in this service (if applicable) is bringing in mail, rotating house lights, playtime/potty time for your pet(s), and poop clean up (using your provided materials), litter box scooping. **Prices vary for small animal care or homestead animal care* ————————————————————— [Bed N Biscuit General Rules] • All pets receiving services must be up to date on Rabies vaccine. I’m currently working as a Vet Tech 3 days a week so I offer drop-in and boarding services around my work schedule and am a stay at home mom when not at the hospital. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and stick to the owners routine as much as possible. All care needs will be met for both owner and pet. Any boarding dogs will receive all care and routine in the comfort of my family home. Boarding is provided 1 per household at a time with a max of 2 pets per household. Please reach out to discuss you and your pets needs.

About: With over 6 years of pet sitting experience and 15+ years caring for my own animals, I treat every pet like family. I’m dedicated to providing personalized care, your way, ensuring your pet feels loved and safe while in my care! My open weekly schedule is a little bit tricky due to me working full-time about 20 minutes away. My availability on those days would only be to the pets who don’t need to be let out side for about an eight hour period until I got home. Otherwise, my weekend schedule is fully open and I can be home all day to let any pets outside that I would need to. In my home, pets enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and walks—with help from my two kids (ages 9 and 11) to keep them company. Pets are welcome on my furniture! In your home, I’ll follow your routine closely and tailor care to your pet’s needs in any way you request.

About: I had a a mixed breed dog she lived until she was about 11 years old. She had a heart murmur and a really bad knee so I know how to help support a dog that might have health problems or mobility issues. I have taken care of another larger dog of border collie blue heeler mix that has battled dislocating hips, throwing out her back and cancer. She is 11 now I have worked with a senior Great Pyrenees and I know these aren’t dogs, but I have taken care of multiple rescue animals from anything from fish all the way up to a cat and I have nursed every single one of them back to health so I do have experience giving animals medicines My schedule is a little bit all over the place. I never really know exactly what days I am off or not but as of right now, I should be available between 11 a.m. to about 2 PM but depending on the day I can work later I will make sure that your pet will not get into anything. It’s not supposed to make sure your pet does not escape your house. I will follow your instructions of how you want me to take care to your pet if your pet is to be let outside in a gate I will make sure that the gate is locked and secured if your dog needs to be chained outside. I will make sure that the chain and whatever it is secure to is stable and the dog will not get loose. I will ensure your pet safety if I’m walking your dog or if it’s in your house, I will make sure that no other animal comes after your pet. If I am at your home, I’m not gonna let anybody into your home that you do not personally know and without your verbal consent that that person can enter your home.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Ivanhoe

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Ivanhoe on Rover is $15.54 per walk (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 989 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ivanhoe. 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 Ivanhoe. 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 Ivanhoe.

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 Ivanhoe. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
