“Alex was very friendly and punctual. He took great care of my little two guys for a solid week and a half. The pictures were great and I was more than assured that my dogs not only were well taken care of, but were having a great time or there. Book Alex with full confidence.”


About: I have forever and always loved animals! I’ve been caring for my own & others pets for a long time! I have worked for a dog park & am always grateful to care for any pets. My schedule can be very flexible for all! I am a yoga / dance teacher, so I have free time throughout the week & most weekends! Our homes are such sacred spaces. I take pride in a calm, clean & safe space. And I ensure that any space I occupy feels the same!

“This is the first time using a dog walker and I couldn't have asked for a better one! Bobby is so nice, explained how it all works to me, my dog loved him and he is very prompt. I will definitely use him again!”


“Lillian is wonderful! I knew she was a good fit at our first interaction. The dogs loved her instantly as well. Very kind person and responsive. Highly recommend!”


“Byron was so easy to work with! So glad we were able to find someone local a bit last minute, and really looking forward to working with him again in the future.”


“Molly is the best! She has saved me so much stress about my baby boy being taken care of. Zeus totally loves walking with her and is a happy boy! Also she takes the best pictures of him and they really brighten my day!!!”


“Iris dropped in on our dog and cat while we were away. She also came back in the afternoon to walk the dog. She did a wonderful job and kept in good contact with us and sent pictures. She was gracious enough to add a walk in the morning and help us with payment instructions. We will definitely have her back!”



“Alissa is awesome! She’s always great about our last minute requests for a walk, and takes Sampson to run and play at the park which he absolutely loves. I always appreciate the cute photos she takes as well!”


About: Hi there! While I may be new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for pets, and I’d love the chance to care for yours! I’m a reliable, trustworthy animal lover with plenty of hands-on experience watching both dogs and cats in my home and others’. From playful puppies to seniors, I’ve handled it all—including giving medications and sticking to special diets. I’ve raised and trained a pup of my own and have been a devoted cat mom for years, so I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I have a genuine love for animals, and I’ll treat your furry friend like family—because to me, that’s exactly what they are. Hope to meet you and your pet soon! Please reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you! I’m currently trying to make a living out of caring for pets when I am not traveling. My calendar is up-to-date for the dates and services I am available for. Please reach out with questions if you have them! I share my home with a friendly cat and dog who are both great with other animals and people! I offer house-sitting and overnight care, whether you need me to stay at your home or drop by during the day. With experience caring for senior pets, including those with special needs or medications, I’m committed to following your care instructions to ensure your furry family members feel safe and loved.

“Brynn was very grateful to have Acoya stop by and give him a potty break and some loving!! She sent a photo and a very accurate description of Brynn being his stubborn self that gave us a good laugh!”

“Peter clearly loves dogs and is very affectionate with Pip, giving scratches & all the attention she asks for from a new friend while making sure to keep her safe.”


About: I have had pets all my life, and I absolutely adore animals. I have two special needs dogs, and I believe they have saved my life. Pets are the best of us and deserve the best of us in return. I currently work independent contractor positions, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I maintain the pet care for my partner and myself everyday with multiple walks for our four dogs. Pet care is the best part of the day. Unfortunately, I cannot take more pets into my own home, but in someone else’s home, I would respect the space, maintain a clean and professional environment, and offer care and affection for the pet present.

“Salam is friendly, thoughtful, communicative, and was super sweet with my dog, Lady. Would definitely recommend getting in touch with Salam if you’re looking for help with your pup!”


“Michael was great with the energy of our big lab, and he was easy to plan and communicate with. We had a happy, nicely tired-out pup after their time together, which is JUST what we needed. Many thanks to Michael.”


About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a child. I’ve been caring for pets of my friends, neighbors and family for years. I’ve walked, fed and boarded many animals and treat them like family members!! I currently work part time and have plenty of time to take care of pets! I board, feed and play with pets any week days and weekends. I have a fenced yard and can crate your dog if necessary. The pets will stay inside if I’m gone and we can walk or stay in the yard when outside!

About: Dog sat for my high schools mechanics teacher for about two years every time they would go out of town. Most of the time I stayed at their house, sometimes my own. Went on walks and made dinners. I grew up with two big golden retrievers and I love dogs so much. I’m slightly allergic to cats but nothing an allergy pill won’t fix. I love dogs so much and want my own someday. I’m just don’t ready to be a dog mom. Hopefully I can practice a little with your furry friends. I’m good around small and large dogs. Hopefully we’ll make a good fit and you won’t have to worry about your pups with me. Can’t wait to meet you and your pups

Dog Walking FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.
Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Kenton.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.
