“Rebecca was amazing! My dogs took right to her. She was very savvy and knowledgeable and able to handle my boys so well. I am so thankful that in a time I needed to be gone, I didn't have to worry about my dogs.”
“Dorothy is amazing. She has been doing routine walks with my dog for a while now. She’s the ultimate professional (reliable, prepared, and responsive), but also brings an incredible amount of warmth and caring to her visits. She’s been so wonderfully patient with my reactive dog and has gone above and beyond by finding ways to help her interact with her surroundings more harmoniously. Cannot recommend Dorothy enough!!”
About: I've taken care of a variety of animals for family and friends. Watched dogs, rabbits, fish, and a guinea pig for my aunt and cousins multiple times. Recently helped my friend while she and her family were out of town by looking after ducks, chickens, a pig, pigeons, horses, and let her dogs out. I also hand fed her cat to make sure he got all of his medicine that was mixed in it. I have a full time job but am lucky to have a flexible schedule and can adjust my hours to be available to take good care of your pet(s). All dogs that I've cared for were let out in a fenced in yard to relieve themselves but I am more that willing to walk any dog that needs more excerise or doesn't have a yard. I can crate your dogs if needed while I'm at work or taking care of my cats and let them back out immediately upon return.
“Nicole was amazing! I contacted her last minute to walk my pup and she was completely willing to help me out. Copper seemed happy when we arrived home later. I would definitely book her again :)”
About: I have fostered, nurtured, rehabbed, and found appropriate and long term homes for many animals throughout my life. Many of the dogs and cats I’ve found abandoned/ or in danger of being euthanized have gone to long term homes with people who I am still in touch with. I have also rescued and nurtured native wildlife and found numerous programs to move them back into the wild. I believe my compassionate approach and love for animals has led to care for animals in a way I find deeply fulfilling. I have gained so much experience with specialized medical care, patience, and a gentle approach that has, I hope, left a positive impact on all animals and people involved with them. These experiences have shaped me into a person whos been able to assist with many complex pets and handle unique needs. My goal is to create trusting bonds with your pet and provide thoughtful and respectful care to any animal I encounter. I work from home Monday through Friday and am afforded flexibility. Id love to add spending time with your pet to my schedule, and enjoy bonding with animals. I have two cats, one spent years in foster care and is very friendly. I also have extra space in my home to accomodate a pet that would not typically get along with the cats.
About: Hi there! I'm Reagan, your pet's new best friend! 🐾 As a lifelong animal lover with 10+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between, I’m here to make sure your furry family member is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just a cuddle buddy, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs and personality. Reliable, responsive, and genuinely passionate about animals — I treat every pet like they’re my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged friend! As a military spouse, I’m looking for a fun and meaningful way to fill my time while providing loving care to pets in my community. I’m available Monday through Friday and have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer reliable walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I would love the opportunity to give them the attention, companionship, and love they deserve while you’re away! Unfortunately I am unable to do pet care in my own home at the moment due to apartment complex having pet policies to ensure residents and their pets a safe home.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was little. My childhood dog passed 2 years ago and my parents recently got a new puppy. I’m an athlete so walks and playing aren’t an issue. I’m a college student studying criminology but I’m completely online with nothing else to do so my availability is very open and flexible just about every day I make sure I'm fully present during each visit so your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and any special care needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. For pets that need extra patience, like seniors, I take my time and make sure they feel calm and secure.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have always considered animals part of the family. I currently have two 8-year-old cats, and until recently I also had two dogs, including a 12-year-old German Shepherd/Malamute mix who sadly passed away from heart failure this year and a Pit Bull who passed away the year before. Caring for pets throughout their different stages of life has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving pets attention and companionship, and keeping their normal routines while their families are away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. My only regular commitments are school drop-off and pickup. This allows me plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I live in a quiet apartment community with a small dog park that I can use for appropriate dogs. I have two friendly 8-year-old cats who are comfortable around people and pets. I also have a toddler who loves animals and a 5-year-old who is more timid around very energetic dogs, so I’m especially mindful of each pet’s temperament and comfort level. I will only accept pets that are a good fit for my home and family, and I always prioritize safety, supervision, and following your pet’s normal routine
About: I've been taking care of animals a vast majority of my life. From fish and birds to dogs and cats. I have experience caring for animals in all stages of life. I also have prior experience working with all types of dogs, as I used to work at a professional daycare and boarding business as a room attendant. There I was a keyholder, prepped dog food and meds, as well as picked up after any messes without any difficulty. I live with two dogs myself, and watch them for my roommate when he goes out of town. I do have cats that don't mind dogs too much. I have a fenced in back yard and a dog door that goes out to the back as well. I love working with my own cats, as well as the fur babies of others to better understand dog, cat, and general animal behaviors. I love animals, so getting to work with them fuels said love. I treat all animals as if they’re mine. I believe in positive reinforcement training, as well as redirecting misbehavior to something more entertaining for both me and the pet.
About: Hi there! Growing up I was always an animal person, every year on my birthday when I blew out the candles I would always wish for 100 dogs. Now that’s probably not a smart decision but I feel like that wish has been granted with all of the dogs I’ve watched. I’ve been dogsitting for 6 years now and have loved every second of it. I’ve watched tiny Chihuahuas to large Great Danes, I also have a lot of experience with cats. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I currently work Monday-Thursday 9-4. I have a lunch break at 12 that I would be able to let them out as well. My weekends are usually free Safety is my number one priority. I am able to crate your dog if you prefer that and set an alarm if you have one.
About: My entire life has been sporting/small breed dogs that were the heart and soul of our homes, and in recent years rescue cats. Every animals deserves to experience love, safety and joy. I am looking for part time pet sitting and walking, I am a remote worker in the Grovetown GA area that wants to stretch your pets let’s when I stretch mine. You and your pets home deserves to stay their safe space and have it be cared for while you are away enjoying your time, love and respect goes into every moment I am in someone else’s home.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I have years of experience walking dogs in my neighborhood. I’d love the chance to get to know and care for your dogs too! When I was younger I volunteered with the Humane Society and also spent time fostering both dogs and cats whenever I could. Doing that has taught me a lot about caring for animals of all ages, and personalities. Senior dogs especially have my heart. My own dog lived to be 18 years old, so I understand the extra care, patience, and attention older dogs sometimes need. I also have experience caring for blind and hard of hearing dogs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. No matter if your pet is young and energetic or a sweet senior, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with me! I currently just moved here, I’m available full time everyday to care for your pet at my home! They will get endless love and attention from me I have a fenced yard and two small dogs of my own, one is very playful! If your dog is used to walks I can also take them for walks in my neighborhood.I’ve also pet sat for several families back in my hometown and love caring for dogs. I have a small covered area where my dogs can go potty, helping keep them safe from hawks and coyotes. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. Dogs are treated like family in my home. They’re welcome on the furniture and can sleep on the bed if that’s what they’re used to. Your pup will get lots of love, attention, and care while they’re with me!
About: I absolutely love playing and taking care of animals. I grew up around animals since I was born. Any job required will get done and you will be more than satisfied with my services. I can help potty train, help with tricks, bathe the animal (if you want), & keep them happy during my visit with them or their visit with me in my home. I absolutely don’t like animal abuse so I will not hurt your love one or hit them for their mistake. I simply take care of the issue (ex: using bathroom in the house) by knowing to take them out every so often. I’m very nice and will take care and love on your pet(s) as if they were my own! Overall, please book me early in advance as my schedule can fill up. I also take care of your home as it’s my own and can help with watering plants, making sure trash goes out, getting the mail everyday and I will clean up my area when I stay at your house. I want to make you feel better when you turn home and have to do as little work as possible. I’m currently a college student onto becoming a nurse. I have plenty of time on my hand to accommodate your needs for your sweet pets I currently have a fenced in yard and have two smaller pups. One is more a senior so she’s constantly in bed but the other one has full energy and loves to be friendly with another pups to play with.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kensington
Heather was absolutely amazing! She had great communication from the very beginning and even scheduled a meet-and-greet beforehand, which made us feel so much more comfortable. She was incredibly attentive and asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood Nami’s routine and how to take the best care of her while we were away. Throughout our trip, Heather sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She did everything we asked and truly went above and beyond. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Nami and treated her like her own. We will definitely be booking with Heather again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog walker!

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.
