“Rebecca was great! She was able to come to our house ahead of our scheduled walks for a meet & greet. She LOVES dogs! She was prompt & responsive. Got lots of pictures included in our Rover report card. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Shannon took our dog out for a nice walk with short notice, which we appreciated very much as we were at the hospital. The report card showed the route and relayed how much our dog enjoyed the walk. Thank you, Shannon! You're our 'go to' for our beloved pets.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs, but my experience goes well beyond being a dog lover. In just one year, I fostered 100 dogs through a local rescue, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all different personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. That experience taught me how important it is to meet each dog where they are—whether they’re playful and energetic, a little nervous in a new environment, or simply happiest sticking to their familiar routine. I provide home-based boarding and daycare with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time. I work from home, so dogs get plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day, along with access to our fenced outdoor yard for play and fresh air (always with supervision). I also love keeping owners connected while they’re away, so I regularly send photos and video updates to let you know how your pup is doing. My goal is simple: provide a safe, comfortable, loving home where your dog gets the individual attention they deserve—not just a place to stay. I work from home, so I’m able to provide plenty of companionship and supervision throughout the day. I have three kids part-time, so I occasionally step away for school drop-off/pickup or an appointment, but dogs are otherwise part of my normal daily routine. I’m happy to work with you on drop-off and pickup times to make things as convenient as possible. I keep things intentionally small, with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time, so each dog gets plenty of attention and supervision. Dogs stay in our home and have access to a secure, fenced yard for outdoor time and play. With my experience fostering 100 dogs, I’m comfortable getting to know each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and videos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I am attentive, notice small changes, and I don’t ignore the animals. I follow routines, exactly as given I take pride and being dependable, respectful and consistent. I truly care about building a connection with each dog so they feel comfortable, understood and safe while you’re away. I’m taken care of neighbors dogs for about three years, but I’ve had a dog since I was little. I school and work - schedule When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and secure. I make sure feeding schedules, walks, medication’s, and any specific instructions are handled exactly as requested. I also spend quality time with them so they’re not just being checked on but actually getting attention and interaction. I treat every home with respect and keep everything clean and organized while I am there.
“Steve helped ensure our pup had great walks while my family was out of town and our pup was staying with our elderly mother-in-law who didn't feel comfortable walking such a big dog. Steve gave our 70-pound bernedoodle a nice stroll around the neighborhood to tire him out and get him some exercise every day we were gone. We will absolutely re-book Steven whenever we go out of town again!”

“I have a difficult time trusting someone I don’t know in my home with my pup. Christina followed my directions carefully and was on time and totally reliable. She’s definitely my go-to! Thanks Christina”
“Adrienne was great with my 3 boxers! My 1 year old male can be a handful and she handled him well. One of the girls is vocal which annoys even us and Adrienne was cool and collected. She even gave us great recommendations for some helpful dog products which we’re going to look into.”

“Paul was great and we'll certainly be working with him again! We're new puppy parents and have some quirky requests to ensure our training goes smoothly and is uninterrupted. Paul came over in advance so we could go for a walk together - he was great with WooHoo and very receptive.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, including 12 years working with horses. I currently work for a dog boarding facility for the past 4+ years. I have a 1.5 year old puppy that I rescued who is a Reservation dog. Due to his fear/anxiety I’ve dealt with and trained him from being reactive with people and kids.

About: Josh and I have always been dog lovers, and a couple years ago, we welcomed our own pup, Ozark, into the family! Ozark is a friendly 2-year-old Australian Shepherd who loves playing with other dogs, and we have plenty of space for him and his buddies to run around and have fun in our fenced yard. We also have a one-year-old daughter who absolutely loves dogs. Because of that, we’re most comfortable caring for dogs that are friendly with children and enjoy a home environment. We know how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone you trust, and we’d love to welcome your pup into our home and treat them like part of the family! We both work from home full time. Your dog will be cared for all day long and will have a buddy to keep them company, even if we’re on a call. We are active and live right by Ralston Creek Trail for daily walks, nearby parks for catch sessions, and take frequent breaks throughout the day so the dogs aren’t stuck hanging around the house. We have a fenced yard with ample space for them to run around and, as mentioned, are close to the trail to walk the dog(s). We live in a very safe neighborhood, as well! Majority of our neighbors have dogs and love seeing Ozark and other dogs we watch out and about.

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 Leyden. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Leyden.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Leyden. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
