“If 10 stars was an option I’d give 10, but 5 will have to do. This was our first time booking with Rover and I could not be more happy. We hit the jackpot with Elsie. She was great at communicating and sent lots of pictures! Absolutely love that we can have someone care so well for our pup in the comfort of his own home!”
About: the personalized, one-on-one attention I provide. I care for one household at a time, allowing me to focus on your dog’s individual needs, routines, and comfort. I prioritize keeping your dog’s schedule as consistent as possible while you’re away, with regular updates, photos, and extra love to help you feel at ease knowing your pup is in caring hands. I offer personalized care that goes beyond the basics, including overnight stays, walks, drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, medication, playtime, and help maintaining your dog’s normal routine. I can also incorporate the little things that make your dog’s stay special, like car rides, outdoor adventures, and extra one-on-one time. I work with each owner to create care that fits their dog’s needs instead of offering a one-size-fits-all service. Pet care is something I prioritize in my daily routine, and I plan my schedule around providing attentive, personalized care for each dog I look after. I make sure every pup receives consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I limit my care to one household at a time so I can focus on each dog’s individual needs and provide a safe, comfortable, and loving experience while their owners are away. I’m a nursing student and have been a CNA since 2021. Caring for others has always been a big part of my life, and I bring that same patience, responsibility, and attention to detail to caring for pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I provide personalized care in my client’s home to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any additional care their pet needs. I also provide companionship, plenty of affection, and regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. I prioritize safety, consistency, and each pet’s individual needs, caring for one household at a time to ensure every dog receives my full attention.
About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—and I pride myself on giving each animal the same love and attention they’d get from their family. I’m experienced with administering medications, following special diets, and providing calm, reassuring care for anxious pets. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. What Sets Me Apart: I focus on building trust through consistency, patience, and clear communication. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and preferences, making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My background in handling multiple pets at once and caring for animals with special needs means you can relax knowing your pets are in capable hands. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I’m flexible with scheduling and can accommodate afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight care, or weekend stays, I make sure your pet’s comfort and routine always come first. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all care instructions closely, keep things tidy, and provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to training routines, administering medication, or giving extra cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and comfort level.
About: I have a deep connection with everything living. Growing up with animals on my side throughout my childhood and having 5 at one time was a lot of work but it was surly amazing. I really want a fun job over the summer between school years. I love working hard and overachieving where i should be. Animals help me keep it together and always put a smile on my face no matter what Dog sitting for people i didn't know was a little weird in the beginning than my moms bookclub all started asking me. On top of meeting all the different crazy puppies and their little different perks I loved going back and them remembering me.

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 Janesville. 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 .
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.
