“Monica is amazing! I have only used her a few times so far but will definitely be using her in the future as well. My dog loves her and will happily follow her anywhere! She is responsive, great with dogs, and sends many updates and pics!”
“Alyssa is fantastic. She’s kind, smart, uber responsible, and will love on your pup as if they were her own. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I’m still counting my good fortune to have found her to care for my 5 month old puppy while I was away. If you can book her, do it!”
About: I grew up with dogs + cats and have experience raising puppies, handling senior dogs, and dogs with minor special needs (mobility issues and vision-impaired). I have worked with animal rescues as a foster for dogs as well! As for cats, I have fostered nearly 50 kittens and adult cats, and have experience with special needs cats! I also have experience with animals such as rabbits, lizards, fish, guinea pigs/hamsters. I currently have no form of employment and can spare most of my time for pet-care. I am willing to do overnights, drop-ins, and playtime or dog walks! I cannot do boarding as I have animals of my own and avoiding a potential problem is the priority. My pets are well-cared for and since they all came from rescues, their specific needs are taken into account. The cats have their own separate litter boxes, the dogs get plenty of playtime and sunshine. As for a client’s home, I will make sure that their pets are loved as if they are my own and I will keep the home clean if any accidents occur. Important information such as diets, recommended outside time, and general schedules for the animals will be taken into account and treated very seriously.

I currently have two cats and a dog, which I offers fun and caring environment for. I always prioritize their health and safety over anything !
“Julianne has been absolutely amazing! I’m so thankful she took us on as a client. She’s punctual, communicates very well, and loves our dog Craiger! You will not be disappointed and we are thoroughly pleased with her services. Thank you so much, you’ve been a life saver for us!”
“Ava is the best! She cares so much about our dog and gets back to me very quickly. She always sends us pictures and videos and updates about the walk. I would highly recommend Ava!”
About: I’m a paws-itively devoted dog mom of two, raised in a purr-fect home full of cats, and I’ve been obsessed with animals ever since! From purrs to paws, I’m here to love on yours while you’re away. I’m fluent in barks, meows, and happy tail wags! I’m very flexible with working full time fully remote with being able to care for your purr-fect pet and provide them the attention they need! I have a fenced in backyard and two very friendly pups to keep your entertained. I provide all services from dog walking, to cat sitting, to anything you need!
“Morgan was amazing taking care of our pets while we were away. She took so many pictures and sent us updates daily! Would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Nancy, thank you. It was the first time time using Rover and you made it such a great experience. Casper was stubborn as he's never gone on a walk without a family member, but you were so patient and kept him engaged. He had a great walk as his tail was wagging at full speed and you are a great communicator. I look forward to working with you again. Once again thanks for being so awesome.”
“John is very responsive and pays attention to Zuri's needs. She is strong, curious and loves to walk. John gave her a little extra time because he understood she was really enjoying her walk. He checks in and was punctual. I appreciate him.”
About: My apartment complex has a side yard with plenty of space throughout it. I have a couple dog parks nearby, a courtyard and neighborhoods within a few feet that are all dog friendly. I usually let the dogs roam freely in the apartment. I am currently working remotely so taking frequent breaks wouldn’t be a issue. I am able to show the dogs lots of attention throughout the day. I have experience working with special needs dogs, older dogs and puppies. My expertise allows me to care for each dog as if it were my own. My schedule is extremely flexible, giving me more time for your pups! I am available for boarding during the week and some weekends. I can stop pass and do walks and feeding for your pups during the week at anytime. I have a gated yard and my own friendly dog to keep your dog company. I also have 3 dog parks nearby to take the dogs to walk and play.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so loving and caring for them has always come naturally to me! Over the years, my family has had two Boxers, a Goldendoodle, and a Rottweiler, so I’ve been around dogs with all different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve always had a huge love for dogs, and that’s a big reason why I decided to start offering pet care through Rover. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your dog while you’re away, and my goal is to give you that peace of mind. Whether your pup loves to play, go for walks, cuddle on the couch, or just have some extra attention and companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I also have a friendly, playful 10-month-old Boxer of my own who absolutely loves other dogs and is always excited to make a new friend! 🐶🐾 I’ll treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. ❤️ Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home most days. This allows me to give dogs consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s usual schedule, whether that means midday walks, feeding at specific times, or just extra cuddles. Because I’m home often, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will have lots of companionship. My flexible schedule also makes it easy for me to accommodate drop-offs, pick-ups, and special care instructions to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for both you and your pup. 🐾 Whether pets stay in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, safe, and comfortable as possible. In my home, dogs have access to a large, fully fenced yard where they can safely run, play, and burn off energy. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. Inside, they’ll have a calm, clean space to relax, with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection throughout the day. Because I work from home often, they get lots of supervision and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to medication or special care needs. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own, making sure they feel secure and loved while you’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and stress-free environment where your pet feels completely at ease. 🐾
About: I have experience with larger dogs, small dogs, and cats as well. I help cater to any special needs or requests you may have such as administering medicine, special diets, and keeping you updated on their well being. Good for quick walks or staying with your pet overnight. I worked in everyday in Brooklyn, NY as a dog walker/pet sitter from 2019 to 2023. I have since then have been traveling around as a pet sitter for the last two years in-between taking care of some important family business. I have grown up raising German Shepherds all of my life and love to know that I am helping someone's day out by being able to care for their pet while they are not able to. I am currently available for any time and can even travel to you if needed for extended overnight stays. Your pet's needs come first for me. I will care for your pet at your home and follow the routine they are used to. Whatever makes them most comfortable is how I will take good care of them.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have cared for them ever since I can remember. I also have multiple years of experience working in a veterinary hospital, kennel, and animal shelter. I am currently in between jobs so just looking for a fun way to fill my time, with a pretty much open availability throughout the week I absolutely love animals so I am ready to provide anything your fur baby needs, from walks to playing outside to snuggles on the couch!
About: I don’t discriminate against any type of breed. I care for them as they are my own . There is no problem for me in giving medications, if needed. I currently work full time . They would be taken care of in the morning, if needed at lunch time . Once done my normal work day, then I would go back to them for however long was needed . In the clients home : We would play, go for walks if the dog enjoys them . I like to snuggle and sit with them, I will converse with them . I always make sure they have fresh water .
About: What sets me apart from other dog caregivers is my genuine love for dogs and the experience I’ve gained from being a dog owner for many years. I currently own a beautiful pit bull that is 11 years old ,her name is Blue. Before my dog Blue, , I owned a miniature pinscher for 14 years who passed away from old age and being ill.I understand that every dog has its own personality, needs, and routines. I enjoy spending time with dogs, making them feel safe, loved, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Especially knowing how important it is to me, when I am away, to know that my dog is cared for fed, and feels safe. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply companionship, I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I do currently work full-time. Although I work full-time, I am done work at 2:30, and off in the summer. My husband has recently passed away. I have a lot more time on my hands to give your pet a lot of love. I am done work early enough that I can get to an owner‘s house for a dinner feeding for your pet, letting your pet out if you have a fenced yard , if not a walk. Playtime for your pet companionship whatever the case may be my weekends are free and my summer . It is then that I could provide overnight stays. Having a dog myself, I would not provide any services at my home, however, I would gladly come to your house, carefully come in, call your dog’s name and provide whatever services you would like. Those services would include a 15 minute visit or a 30 min visit In a 15 minute visit: *Let dog out/ short walk * Fresh water/ feeding *Lots of attention/ affection 20.00 30 min drop in * Walk/yard time *Feeding / water refresh * playtime/ companionship *Poop cleanup * photo text update- 30.00

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 Jefferson. 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 Jefferson.

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 Jefferson. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
