“Adam walks my rambunctious golden doodle during the week and we’re so fortunate to have his help! He’s organized, professional, and takes great care of Honey. We know she’s in good hands and he makes sure she gets all the exercise she needs. Highly recommend his services!”
“Nick stopped by to meet me and our dog and he demonstrated instant rapport and skill with Dublin, our doodle. He showed up on time, he took Dub for a healthy walk and took the time to check in ahead because it was raining that day. We will consider Nick fir our future needs.”
“Cannot thank Tiffany enough for her flexibility and thoroughness when walking Turtle! She is a great communicator, and shares detailed info about their walks! It's a weight off my shoulders on busy days, and I can always count on Turtle to have a great time when he walks with Tiffany!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I recently graduated from college and moved to the city, and I’m excited to continue spending time with animals through dog walking and pet sitting. Over the years, I’ve pet sat and walked dogs for neighbors, friends, and family members, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. My family has Dane Mastiffs, so I’m very comfortable handling large breeds, but I also adore small dogs like my aunt’s two mini dachshunds. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important routines, exercise, patience, and affection are for dogs, and I’ll always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands! I work full-time, but my schedule is similar to shift work. I have open mornings and the occasional free weekend! Pet care is something I enjoy, gets me outside, and is a little bit of exercise all at once. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide updates (and lots of pictures!) so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. My goal is for the pets to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. That means sticking to their routine, staying in familiar environments, and being aware of the surrounding stressors. I am great at following clear instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter box care, and any special routines their pets are used to. I also keep homes clean and tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I can provide services at the client's home; I don't have boarding facilities.
About: I had a dog for 15 years until she recently passed from a medical condition, she was my best friend! I watched after her from when i was a kid and she was a puppy until her last few days. :) As a nurse, i have 4 days off a week so this allows time for pet sitting and walking which makes this a perfect little side gig. I will do anything necessary and requested to make yours and your pets experience with me enjoyable. I will care and love for your pet as if they are my own!
“Thank you so much for walking Turtle! Abigail was great when I needed to communicate a couple things last minute, and she was thorough in making sure our dog got the attention he needed! :)”
“Great communication, interacted well with dogs, and got us out of a tight spot at very short notice after our regular Dogsitter/walker had an emergency.”
“Super sweet person! Our golden, Ellie, seemed to really enjoy spending time with Jackie on her walk and she was able to use her commands and had control of her but was still very friendly and caring. I would definitely recommend Jackie.”
About: I had a yellow lab for 13 years from a puppy, and am experienced with all aspects of dog care from the basics to administering oral medications, enrichment, and training. On top of that I have year of experience dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors. I have plenty of free time all day and flexibility throughout the week for help on short notice, and regular availability for week-to-week pet care. I prefer to be introduced to your pet with you or another trusted individual before I am left with them. I am patient in gaining familiarity and trust with pets, and aim to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and safe.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10, volunteered walking regular, power and bashful dogs for 2 years at the humane animal rescue of Pittsburgh, currently have 2 cats. I'm currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walking the dogs on weekdays and weekends. I will follow your instructions to take the best care of your loved pups, and cats! I can work with you and your loved pups to make the experience as joyful as possible.
“Linn is so sweet! This was my first experience with Rover and I’m so thankful that I booked with Linn. She went above and beyond and met with me/my dog a couple of days before walking her, just to ensure that my dog would recognize a friendly face coming to walk her. You can tell Linn is a total animal lover and is great w dogs. Wonderful communicator, can’t recommend highly enough!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love getting to know each one’s personality. I grew up with a dachshund for nearly 14 years, which taught me the responsibility and consistency that great pet care requires. As I got older, my dad and I also hosted dogs through Rover in our home, so I’m very familiar with caring for dogs in a home environment, helping them adjust to new spaces, and keeping them comfortable while their owners are away. I also have hands-on experience working in a dog daycare, where I supervised playgroups of 20+ dogs at a time. I managed group dynamics, kept play safe and positive, handled feeding routines, cleaned up after dogs, and moved them between spaces. That experience made me very confident in reading dog body language and stepping in early to keep things fun and safe. I’m active and love walks, playtime, and just hanging out with dogs. Whether your pup wants to run around or relax and get attention, I’m happy to match their energy. I also love sending photo updates so you can see how they’re doing! I’m a CMU student who loves spending time with animals outside of class. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and will make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first. I pay close attention to behavior and surroundings, so I can keep things safe, calm, and positive. On walks, I stay aware of other dogs, people, and anything that might be stressful or overstimulating. During home visits, I stick closely to your dog’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Because of my daycare experience, I’m confident handling multiple dogs, recognizing early signs of stress, and adjusting quickly to prevent issues. I’ll also keep you updated so you always know your pup is happy and in good hands.
About: I always had pets growing up so I was responsible for walking/bathing/feeding my own pets and I started with pet care when I was 15 and I’ve been doing it ever since! This is my full time job that I do through Rover and independently as well. I’m happy to take on your usual schedule you have for your pet during our booking! When I watch a pet in a clients house, I am happy to follow whatever instructions are necessary for your pet! That includes how often you want them to be walked, if they need any special medicine, if they have special food instructions, and just about anything else you could think of!
“Daniel was available very last minute to walk Clover when my plans changed for the day. He took care to make sure she was comfortable on a hot afternoon and was great with communication. We would book with him again!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 12.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lawrenceville
Isabella was great! I had a family emergency and needed help last minute walking my dog. She responded to my inquiry almost immediately which was greatly appreciated. Paddington was really nervous at first but she used her calm and gentle demeanor to change his tune! I will definitely use her again! Highly recommend!
Had a good experience with Flannery, I hired her for dog walking over a couple of days while my husband was out of town. Flannery was very patient with my two dogs and went on back to back walks with them so that they could each have some independent time. Flannery was very responsive and easy to work with, I would definitely work with her again!
Jordan walked my dog regularly for weeks and was amazing!! She was so communicative and friendly and was very responsible with my apartment (locking it a specific way) and dog (giving treats, refilling water, etc.). I’d recommend her to anyone a million times over!!
Emma took great care of Theo and took him for a beautiful walk by the river! He is tired and definitely well exercised after their visit! She also gave him some yummy treats 😌 I would recommend her care to anyone with a fur baby that they love. I will be booking her again to take care of my boy!

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 Lawrenceville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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.
