“Christy is fantastic to work with. She is reliable and a great communicator. She is friendly and professional. She is very loving with our dog and we know he is always in great hands with her!”
About: There's never been a time in my life when I didn't have a pet - dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I've helped take care of friend's and neighbors pets while on vacation since I was a teenager. We recently had to say bye to our dog, Bateman, of 13 years and as much as I'd love to welcome another pet into our lives, we're just not ready yet, but we'd love to show some love to your fur babies! We have a big, fenced in backyard and we are attached to a park that's great for walks, so I'd love to see Bateman's space put to good use. My husband and I both work from home and I don't have a set schedule so I can be flexible and available throughout the day. I also take daily walks at the park attached to our neighborhood, so I'd love to have friend to take along with me for some exercise. We have a 7-year-old son and 15-year-old daughter who both love animals and will be more than happy to love on your fur babies. I used to have my own little escape artist at home, so I'm very cautious when opening doors to ensure no one gets out unless there's a fence or they're on a leash.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have cared for them in their senior years with love and respect. This included giving medications, caring for incontinence and overall creating an environment that met their sometimes, seemingly to the outside world, over the top needs. But, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do to make their lives a little better and as comfortable as possible. I’m a stay at home mom and housekeeper so I have a flexible schedule Monday through Friday between the hours of 9am to 3pm. I currently care for one family’s 5 dogs about 10 days a month. So I can take helping a a few more families. I am currently available to do drop in visits and walking of your pets at your home. I am a very cautious and detail oriented person so if I’m caring for your pet I will be as diligent about keeping them safe during walks and outdoor time as I am with my own.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes, cats and small farm animals for 12 years and I have a vet assistant certification from Animal Behavioral College. Experienced with med administration, puppies, rescues, and senior dogs. I’m currently home full time - basically my daily and weekly routine is to care for my animals and garden at home. I do travel out of state occasionally to sit for friends and family I’ve worked with over the years. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your fur baby company and active. A senior Great Pyrenees and a year and a half old mixed breed that love to run around and chase each other and balls in the back yard. My cat is very used to dogs and puppy play dates, and I’m able to crate your baby if needed.
“Treanne was able to make daily walks happen for my best friend even on a fairly short notice. She sent pictures and notes about what was going on. Absolutely a great job!”
About: I have been blessed with taking care of my two senior dogs; my labrador, Bentley, and my puggle, Lilly. As well as my puppy, who is also a Labrador, Toby! I have also pet-sat and walked my sisters GSP from when he was just a tiny, little guy! He’s a lot bigger now, and still has the same puppy energy! Either way, I am ready to care for your furry family. :) I currently work full-time as a barista. On average, I am at the cafe 4 days a week. Unfortunately, I do not have a set-schedule; however I am off every Sunday! Through the years of taking care of my three dogs, I can confidently say that I can take care of your fur-babies in many cases, whether they need to be let out to potty, need a play-mate, walk, etc. Growing up and having two labs, a puggle, and taking care of my boyfriends 2 Great Danes, and my sisters German Short-haired Pointer, I have knowledge on both smaller and larger dogs!
About: I have had a dog my whole life learning to take care of her from a baby till now old dog. Taking her out early in the morning and late at night. Willing to do what is best for the owner and for the animal! I will make sure the animals are always feed and taken care of. I have had dog sat before for different families many times with small and big dogs. I am very comfortable staying at the house and taking care of the needs of your animal. Will ensure you that your animal will be in safe hands with me and will have some fun too by playing. I have a lot of experience and will keep the animals all safe.
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years now. I have three pups of our own and come from a family of pet lovers! Love spending time with pups and helping them keep comfortable in the comfort of their own home. I work full time in a flexible and hybrid environment. Whether the pups are with me or I am staying with the pups in the owner’s home, I make sure they are comfortable and getting all necessary activities. I will work with each pet family’s care guidelines to make sure they are getting the best and stress free care! For us, we have a fenced in yard which helps us with ongoing activities.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I will have plenty of time to care for your pup. I am available for boarding, pet sitting, walks, daily check-ins, and lots of cuddles and playtime. I have a fenced yard and two very friendly pups your furbaby will be more than happy to play with for hours at a time.
“Chelsea was wonderful! She treated my puppies like they were her own. My border collie was hesitant at first (he always is when he first meets someone) but he warmed up to her very quickly. She sent daily pictures which helped us know our puppies were well taken care of while we were out of town. I've even asked Chelsea to be our go-to sitter and dog walker!”
About: Being around animals just brightens my day! I was a groomer for 2 years before becoming a mom full time. I have experience with dogs ranging from little baby doggies to the giants of giants and I love them all. I ABSOLUTELY will take pictures of your furbaby so fully expect picture updates along the way. I have experience with diabetes in dogs so I’m good with giving insulin injections as well as taking blood for blood sugar checks. I’ve dog sat for friends/family/neighbors and my priority is to always treat every pup as my own. I have 8 years experience house sitting/checking in/dog walking for others and 11 years personal experience. I’m a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies! My morning availability starts at 8:30am. When doing check ins or house sitting I like to follow any requests/routines you the pet parent already have in place for your fur babies day to day.
About: I have taken care of various types of dogs for the past 6 years. I have dog sat and cat sat for many years. I have repeating clients every year and looking to expand on my clientele. I currently work 32 hours a week. I work 8 hour work days but I’m able to leave for lunch or to take a quick break, so i would be able to care for your pet during those breaks! I have 4 cats of my own and used to have a dog so I know how to care for these animals. I have a fenced in yard so I would have space for your dog to run around if needed!

About: Hours of availability on the weekends, Friday 5pm-Sun 9pm. Possibly before 5 on fridays depending on location. I Love dogs, and have had 3 jack Russell terriers and 2 German short haired pointers and now 2 Labrador retrievers. I want to make it easy for pet owners to do things and not have to worry about their pet. I have also been in charge of the grooming(nails,bathing etc) since I was young. I feel I can tell how/what dogs want, they call me the dog whisperer. Just want all dogs/animals to love me :) We now adopted 3 kittens in the last 6 years since they always find us. Let me care for your dog/cat while you enjoy yourself. I have had other animals, not just dogs, as I care for animals in general(fish,guinea pigs, gerbils, rabbits, birds, cats). I have always been the dependable Neighbor and was always asked to watch the neighbors animals while they were away. I know how hard it is to find a caring person to watch your pet, instead of a kennel. I also have had to give my first dog insulin shots 2xs a day, also have given her medicine daily. Also give medicine/supplements to my current pets. Let me be that person.
About: I have been around animals my whole life and I have 2 pets of my own. I feed and take them on walks every day I have 2 pets of my own. A dog named Reese and a cat named Sawyer. I am able to come to someone's home also. I also work in the evenings Wednesday through Sunday so I am able to care for animals in the mornings and all day on the days that I am off from my regular job which is Monday and Tuesday. If you need an overnight sitter I can do that as well. My schedule at work is usually 7 hrs and I would be able to come stay a night after I get off work. We can discuss that at a later time upon booking if needed. I take my dog out on the leash because of the place that I live at doesn't have a fenced in yard. Watch them closely when not on leash. I also have kennels that can separate them if needed.
“Isabelle is great! She was professional, communicative, and sent us photos of our dog enjoying his walks with her. We really appreciate her stepping in to help us on short notice as well. We will definitely be reaching out to Isabelle first for any future dog walking or dog sitting needs. 10/10”
About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a Small and Large Animal Veterinarian and specialize in Animal Psychology and Internal Medicine/Oncology. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job on Mondays, Wednesdays, and every other Saturday from 2:30 PM to 8:30 PM, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for my pet care clients. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to accurately reflect my availability, though occasional changes may arise. If you don't see the dates or times you need, I encourage you to reach out anyway—I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide exceptional care for your furry family member! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Jacobus
Christy has been wonderful. We met her 4 months ago as we were looking for someone to do weekly walks for our dog while I'm in the office, and she has been amazing! Our dog loves when she comes, and both our cats even come to greet her - she provides them treats so of course they love when she comes over, lol. She has been flexible with our schedule, ensures appropriate adjustments when weather is not ideal, and ensures all of our pets have sufficient water and love. We are so grateful to have found her. Thank you Christy!
Murray was wonderful! Delightful to work with. Excellent with communicating. Very attentive to Nala’s needs, especially as they cared for her during very intense heat. I would give my highest recommendation over and over. I’m very grateful for the care Nala received.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,478 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Jacobus. 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 Jacobus. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Jacobus after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

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 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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
