“We couldn’t be more grateful to have found Chris! He’s always punctual, easy to communicate with, and we trust him completely with our dog, Omeo. We are always kept updated with walking adventures and Chris makes sure Omeo is happy and well cared for. It’s rare to find someone so dependable and compassionate. Knowing that our dog, Omeo, is in such caring and capable hands brings us so much peace of mind. We feel very lucky to have met Chris and highly recommend him to any pet owners!”
“We are so grateful for Emily! What a treasure. Our boys LOVE her. She is so reliable, takes amazing care of our boys and just a lovely person. We are so thrilled to have found her and can give her a great reference. Don’t hesitate!”
“I am so grateful Victoria was available to walk Pinky on such short notice. She even kindly offered a meet and greet the day before which was very reassuring. I knew he would be in good hands.”
About: I've cared for animals my whole life: around four dogs and more than five cats over the years, from feeding and walks to overnight stays and everything in between. Right now I live with and care for four cats full-time (litter, feeding, treats, training), including Bitsy, who came to us as a feral, abandoned kitten. She'd survived months alone in the woods before she was rescued, and she wouldn't come near anyone. I spent hours lying on the floor of the room she was in until she finally came to say hello. From there, I trained her to come when called, sit on command, and wait patiently for food. It wasn't instant and it wasn't guaranteed. It took months of just showing up, consistently, before she trusted anyone. That's the same approach I bring to every animal I care for, whether they warm up in five minutes or need real time to feel safe. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I'm comfortable administering medication if your pet needs it. I always ask for a meet-and-greet before the first booking, so we can make sure it's a good fit before you leave your pet in my care. I am home most of the day and open most of the week, so I can offer flexible availability that works with your schedule. Weekends work too, but I prioritize weekday requests first if I have to choose. Unfortunately, I don’t have the space to board or have client pets in my home. All of my care takes place on your pet’s own turf where they are comfortable. During a visit or walk, I’ll send you updates and photos every hour to a few hours, depending on the length of the job. That way you are always aware of how things are going. I believe in preparation first. I make sure to understand your pet’s routine, habits, and any risks before I’m alone with them so that I can prevent problems. If something does go wrong then the priority is getting the animal safe first. I will update you the moment that’s done or as soon as I can do it without compromising your animals safety or the safety and privacy of your home.
“Rosalie has been so lovely to work with. Our recently adopted dog struggles with separation anxiety and Rosalie has been willing to work with us to slowly build her confidence so that we can eventually leave her overnight. We are very grateful for her help, patience, and support!”
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals my whole life and would love to provide an easy, safe and affordable sitting and walking experience for you and your family! I have over 15 years dog watching, walking and loving experience and would love to help you out! I’m able to come to your home and stay overnight, just a day or even just an hour. Whatever pet services you need provided for your fluffy best friend I can accommodate. I’ve always been told I have a way with animals and I think it’s just because they have always genuinely made me happy. I’m sure you’ll be happy with the way I treat your pup and I know they’ll be happy to stretch their legs with me! I’m currently available full-time to board animals at my private house on a quiet street! I also offer dog walking and drop ins as well as housesitting! My home is pet free at the moment so your animal will have their own private Airbnb and full reign of my cozy little house!
“Grettel was great with our sweet but anxious dog! She’s clearly very experienced with dogs and is able to read our dog’s cues clearly and respond accordingly. She was very accommodating to our pup’s special needs, and a just a joy to work with. Highly recommend!”
“We had another great experience with Aliza! She is reliable, communicative, and takes wonderful care of our dog. It’s always reassuring to know he is in such good hands. We’re very happy to have found her and would absolutely recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and pet owner with two cats of my own. I’ve also helped friends and others care for their dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure they get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I treat every animal with the same patience, care, and affection I give my own. Whether your dog needs a walk, some company, or someone to keep their routine while you’re away, I’d love to help keep them happy, comfortable, and cared for! Pet care fits well into my schedule, especially on weekends when I have the most flexibility and availability. I’m primarily available for weekend bookings, including drop-in visits, dog walking, house sitting, and overnight stays in your home. With at least a week’s notice, I can also be flexible with weekday care when needed. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making their time away from their owner as stress-free as possible. I spend quality time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing with their favorite toys, giving them affection, or simply keeping them company. I’m respectful of each home and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality and preferences so I can adjust my care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.
About: I've had animals most of my life and genuinely love fur babies. Friends and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, board, and care for their pets of all different breeds because of my love for animals and my attention to each animal’s unique needs. I currently have two pups, Mr. Milo and Bellarina, and have personally owned dogs of different life stages, from puppy to elderly. I have experience with adult and elderly cat care as well. I started on Rover to be able to care for as many dogs and cats as possible, since my schedule affords me that freedom. I can’t get enough! I’d be honored to care for your fur babies with the care and attention they deserve. I currently work mostly from home, with two days per week in the office. I'm available for boarding Thursday through Sunday morning (early morning pickup), and dog walking almost every day of the week. I have a fully fenced in yard and a sweet puggle named Milo who gets along with dogs, cats, and babies. I have a spare bedroom if your furry friend needs to be separated from Milo and plenty of room for your crate or other beds, toys, etc.
“Cipriana's first walk with Lucy went very well! She was punctual and Lucy was quite pleased from what we saw on our "Rover card". Cool service; great, local gal!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs and was responsible for caring for them from a young age. I can take your dog on long walks or give your cat plenty of social play time. I have a few free days that I’m looking to fill by walking and dropping in on my neighbors’ pets. Now that I don’t have a dog of my own anymore, I’m looking to satisfy my pup time fix. I have a friendly and social cat who is looking forward to making new friends. My house is clean and quiet and would be a great spot to host your pets.
“Sofia was so gentle and patient with my skittish rescue dog! Ellie felt safe with her right away and even cuddled up a bit on the first visit. We will definitely be spending more time with Sofia! She’s wonderful.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 15 years. I pet sat many times as a child and continued through adulthood including, walking, feeding, administering medicine, baths & snuggles! I also volunteered at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. Currently 3 cats and a rambunctious German Shepard/Siberian Husky 3 years old. I have cared for all kinds of pets including but not limited to goats, chickens, horses, pigs, donkeys etc I’m currently working full time but have a very flexible schedule and can move my hours around to meet your needs especially for early morning and later evening check ins or during work hours! I have worked with leash trained and non leash trained dogs if you have a fenced in yard. I prefer leash trained dogs for public walks with a standard leash. I love animals, their snuggles & kisses too! I have kids & animals so drool & slobber don’t bother me!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
Amanda is so wonderful with Teddy and Lucy!! She was amazing about communicating with me every step of the way. It is so clear that she has significant experience working with dogs and can really respond to what they need individually. I have a hard time finding someone I trust with Teddy and Lucy because they can be a handful but I feel like I can really trust they are in great hands with Amanda. I would absolutely recommend her!
Bridget is great! She is always on time, follows my instructions carefully and is very communicative. And most importantly she is fantastic with my dog. My dog has weird little quirks and can be very excitable and Bridget is great about it all. No notes, I’m glad to have found her.
Jacqueline, is absolutely fabulous. I need my dog walked daily. She is always timely and has never missed a day in over a month that I have been using her. She is kind and communicates. She is honest, and that’s a big one, as she has access to my home. Look no further she is outstanding.
Linnea is absolutely amazing!! She was so loving and patient with my 9 year old chihuahua who gets a bit grumpy when going out for walks in subzero temperatures (it just so happened that the week we planned our trip for was when “historic storm fern” descended upon the city lol). Needless to say we were so relieved to have booked with Linnea— having her support and regular updates gave us the peace of mind that actually allowed us to enjoy our trip, and knowing our pup was well taken care of was invaluable. Highly recommend Linnea for anyone who wants reliable, kind and empathetic care their pet!

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 Kingston. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
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.
