“Absolutely wonderful dog walker! You can tell he loves animals so much. It comes through in everything He is saying and the way he interacts with them. I highly recommend Thomas for any of your pet care!”
About: I've been in love with animals since I was young, and I have worked with dogs with special needs such as previously abused dogs and reactive dogs. I'm still in school and work a part time job, so breaks during the day are a bit harder for me some days, but on others I'm mostly free! I will happily follow any routine you have set in place so long as I am shown prior to petsitting! When watching pets in home I try to be gone for as little time as possible so that they have company and don't get too lonely while you're gone!
“Lawrence did a wonderful job taking care of our dog on short notice! He was reliable, attentive, and took great care of him. I would highly recommend Lawrence to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“McKenzie is amazing! She takes Emmy on walks during the days I can’t come home during my lunch break, and every day when I get home Emmy is happier than ever! McKenzie is always on time, trustworthy and kind. I can’t recommend her more!”
“Leah was extremely patient and willing to jump through all the hoops involved with becoming friends with my sometimes challenging pup - now they're friends and it's a lifesaver having someone I and my dog trust available to help!”
About: I am a single middle age compassionate, loving female who will absolutely show your dog or cat the most love and affection he or she has ever known! I do not have children and I believe our pets are a reflection of our own soul and speak to us through the way they interact with us. If we have had a bad day, they know. If we have had a good day, they know that too! This is my only job so my schedule is pretty open to meeting the needs of you and your fur babies. I look forward to meeting you and your precious pooch or kitty for lots of love! I am a retired veteran so caring for your fur baby is my #1 priority. Check my schedule on the Rover app. Let me be your preferred sitter! I can accommodate your pet by house sitting in your home. I feel that pets thrive in their own environment and their own routines with the least amount of stress possible.
About: Growing up my parents allowed my siblings and I to have different kinds of pets, which was amazing, because it allowed me to realize how much I love animals. To me all dogs and cats are babies no matter how old or big they are! I am working a part time job, but that will not stop me from giving pets the best care they could hope for! I will always provide my time and care for all animals because I know better than anyone that pets are family! At my home, I have kept my cat at free range! She enjoys most of her days on her cat tree near a window to sun bath. My cat and dogs have as much liberty as I can give them! Sometimes they play fight but I always keep a close eye on them so I don’t miss any special moments. With my clients’ pets I will take care of them as if they were my own! I know that my own pets bring me so much joy and happiness, and I want to help my clients’ pets do the same for their owners!

About: I love animals. I have two cat, and had a dog in my 20s before she passed away. I love to walk, play and cuddle with all pets. I have pretty open availability. I have experience giving cats and dogs medicine, so I know how tricky it can be, but I will make sure they get it down. My aunt has a dog rescue, so if I ever have any questions I have a great person to turn too, as she is currently caring for over 50 dogs, and working on getting a no kill animal shelter built.

About: I've helped take care of neighbors and friends dogs many times since I was a kid up into college. I have always had a dog of my own and understand the importance of being able to get some help to watch them when needed! I am currently a student in the PT program at ETSU and have time to let your pups out during breaks, before, and after class! I know every dog has their own routine, to provide check-ins and walks I would just follow the info given for what a normal day for the pup would be! I also find it very important to provide check-in’s/ photos of the pup during visits so you can see what they’ve been up to!

Day to day I am in school for Radiology and I’m looking for work that has more flexible hours and days to work with my schedule. I will do whatever your pet needs in your own home to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I will crate if you want but I will also snuggle them. I will play fetch and go on walks. I will even take them to the vet if you can’t because of work.
About: Animals are my absolute passion! I am currently a major in biology and I have 3 years combined working with animals from dog boarding facilities and veterinary clinics. In my free time I have been pet sitting for years as well! Both dogs and cats are in good hands! I work part time with a flexible schedule so it is easy for me to make time to accommodate! It is preferred that there is a notice, so I can make changes to my schedule as needed In my clients home I do exactly what is instructed to me and respect the boundaries that are set by the client. And of course, leave the animals happy and healthy.

Most of my work is remote and I can pet sit in between classes and in evenings. I would love to do this and enjoy it all! I have Saturdays open for in-home overnight care as well.

I would love to be your pets new BFF and give them love in-home so they don't have to be stressed by boarding and other scenarios.

I have a fenced in backyard and my dogs are very friendly and playful and love new friends! We have multiple crates if that is something necessary for your pet. My whole family has huge hearts when it comes to animals so your pet will be well taken care of!
About: I’m currently pursuing a dog training mentorship and look forward to applying what I learn to provide thoughtful, low-stress walks for your dog. I’m passionate about understanding breed tendencies, canine body language, and each dog’s unique personality so I can tailor every walk to their individual needs. My goal is to create a calm, positive experience where your dog feels safe, confident, and understood while getting the exercise and enrichment they need. I believe trust is the foundation of every great relationship with a dog, and I strive to build that trust on every walk. For high energy or adventure loving dogs I am also offering longer enrichment walks/hikes. Giving your dog the opportunity for time in nature to sniff, move and explore in new environments. These will typically be about 1-1.5hrs in length and will be assessed by each dog’s current energy, fitness and comfort level. Perfect for dogs that need more than just a neighborhood walk. Right now I work full time and only have minimal availability. As I build more clients and gain experience in my field I plan to open up more days and times. I like to bring treats with me for our walks. If the owner needs specific treats for their pets I ask that to be provided.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I’ve done everything from fostering to raising litters of puppies and kittens. I’m an active person so there is no shortage of playtime. I’m very dedicated to providing the love and support pets need! Caring for pets is always a priority of mine as I currently own a dog and cat myself. I work part time so my schedule is very flexible. I have a spare bedroom in my house with a large mattress for pets to rest on. There is space for a crate if needed. My backyard is very spacious. My area is fairly quiet as I live outside the city. I also have a very friendly dog and cat so your pets can have new friends (can be separated if needed).
About: Unclassified "animal whisper" I live for animals and children! They speak a different, much more pure language! They know real love and loyalty and are worth every second you can provide! Many years of experience, and looking forward to many more! Drop ins and walks are my favorite 😊 All animals of all shapes and sizes make me my best self! And I will die in the line of doggy duty!! You won't regret letting me spend time with your fur baby 😻 I work from home currently so I am always home through the week or at least close by so I can accommodate most needs. :) We have no fence unfortunately but we have plenty of leashes! As far as for someone elses home we take the direction of the owners note and recognize it is the pets home and routine so all of that is respected!
About: I have over 45 yrs of experience in pet care. I was a dog trainer (now partially retired), owned my own pet sitting business for many years, fostered/adopted many rescues and I currently volunteer at and support several rescues. Animals are my heart and soul and I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I'm currently working part time and I will make myself available for your pet 24/7 whether it's late night potty trips outside or long walks during the day. I will care for your pets however you would like. I can do long walks, short walks, provide medications, specially prepared meals, play games, etc. I specialized in elderly dogs, hospice dogs and medical needs dogs when I fostered.

Aaron did a great job! He was able to provide wonderful care for my dog Royal. First as his dog Walker and then Royal sustained an injury and Aaron would simply come and keep him company. I was very comforted to know that Roy was in good hands and I couldn’t be there. Taking care of. I highly recommend.

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 Johnson City. 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 a map of the walking route , 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 Johnson City after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

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 Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
