About: Hi! My name is Raeann and I love all animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and fish. However, I would love to get more exposure to other animals such as birds. I take the responsibility of caring for your animal very seriously, I will ensure I am absolutely confident in the task before caring for your pet. I grew up with cats, dogs, rats, guinea pigs, snakes, reptiles, and even a tarantula (it was nearly a zoo!). I love small dogs and great big dogs; there generally isn't an animal that intimidates me. Our doggo at home is a senior pug who is both deaf and blind, so I am familiar with providing that gentle, loving care with senior animals. I have administered medicines both orally and rectally, and am familiar with both liquid and pill form. I am not afraid of needles, but would require one demonstration before administering injection meds. I primarily work from my home office and generally have some flexibility with my hours. I can visit in the morning, around lunch, around dinner, and in the late evening. I ensure I have the best understanding of your pet(s) and the layout of your home and yard. I take detailed notes during a meet and greet to ensure no pertinent information is missing.
About: I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. Confident in handling walks! This is a side hustle to help pay for my college fund, and I’m also working with remote jobs so I have a lot of free time. When I care for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their regular routines to help them feel safe and relaxed. I follow detailed instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines. I also keep the home clean and tidy, give regular updates with photos/videos, and make sure your pet gets lots of attention and comfort while you’re away. I treat your space with the same respect I would my own.
About: Hello, my name is Delaney. I live with my husband Alex in Bismarck. We have a 3 year old Jack Russel mix named Mortimer, a 2 year old cat named Sprig, and a new little guy named Greg. He’s also a JRT mix. He’s pretty high energy at the moment, but he gets along with all dogs very well, and he is up to date on all vaccines. I have experience caring for all sorts of pets. I was in 4-H dog club for 5 years as a teenager, where I was trained in many aspects of dog care and training. I also volunteered at a dog shelter for several years. Throughout the years I’ve had cats, birds, hamsters, fish, dogs, chickens, and a pig. We have a clean, spacious house surrounded by a fully fenced-in yard. We are fully stocked with dog toys, bowls, leashes, and grooming supplies. I recently left my full-time job as an interior designer to commit to pet care. I have a fully flexible schedule to spend as much time with your babies as possible. I’m a big advocate of brain games and I love using Licki mats to help mentally stimulate them with frozen treats like goats milk and other natural, raw foods. All other treats are wholistic and without soy, corn, wheat, or byproducts. We have plenty of safe toys available of all different types. We only use plant based and natural cleaning products as well.
“Bradyn was great with our two dogs. He picked them up for walks each day while we were out of town and when our dog sitter couldn’t take them. They had some great walks and he really looked out for their well-being when it was hot out. Thanks Bradyn!”
About: I’ve had a love for animals my entire life and have grown up caring for dogs, cats, chickens, and a wide variety of other pets. I currently have two cats, three dogs, and a flock of chickens of my own, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. When your pets are in my care, I treat them like my own—with plenty of love, attention, patience, and care. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away! I work Monday–Friday from 8:00 AM–4:00 PM, but I’m happy to work pet visits around my schedule! I’m available for visits before work, after work, and in the evenings, and I can be flexible depending on your pets’ needs and routine. I’m happy to communicate ahead of time to find a schedule that works best for both you and your pets. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own home, surrounded by their familiar sights, smells, and routines. When I care for your pets, I’ll follow their normal schedule as closely as possible—from meals and fresh water to potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, and medication if needed. I’ll also make sure their space stays clean and comfortable while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship so they feel safe, loved, and cared for until you’re home again.
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs since I was a little girl. I have always had kitties and I have had 3 dogs in my life! One of my kitties lived until she was 19 years old, so I am very well versed in taking care of senior pets. I love getting to meet new animals and getting to know them while getting to be their safety when their family is away! I am currently in the accelerated nursing program at NDSU, I have class every Tuesday and Wednesday from 9am-12pm, so I am available for pet sitting after 12pm on those days. I have clinical every Thursday from 5am-2pm, and will be available after. Every Monday and Friday are free for the most part and the weekends are also free for the most part! I always make sure to get familiar with the layout of the house that I an pet sitting at to make sure I am fully aware of where pets will go and where they could potentially be hiding. I also make sure to go outside when I am dog sitting to observe the dogs and make sure they are okay while their parents are away!
About: I will treat your furry friend like my own! I grew up on a farm and ranch and have numerous years of pet care experience!! I am available in the morning as well as after work. I do have availability on the weekends as well. When I am not available my wife may help take care of your furry friend as well! I will care for your pet like my own. I would prefer clear instructions on your preferences on how I care for your furry friend.
About: I have 2 dogs myself, and have had at least 1 my whole life! I often get asked to watch my neighbors, cousins, and friends dogs and cats! I will give your pet all the love, or space that it needs. I’m currently a student and working part-time, but I have a lot of free time. I am available to come in between classes and in between work so that your pet isn’t alone for too long. Being in your home, I will make sure I know where everything is that is needed for the pet. I also am very good at remembering their needs! I always make sure to take care of other things too such as garbage, mail, etc. I have experience with blind, abused, energetic, anxious, old, and young animals!
About: There has always been at least one dog in my family since before I was born. I am now 21 years old, and I have 3 dogs of my own. I have been walking and dog sitting for just over a year now, and I absolutely love it. I even hope to one day open my own walking/boarding/daycare company for dogs. But that probably won’t happen for a while, so for now I’m just trying to rack up as many practice hours as I possibly can, and learn about dogs as much as possible. There is something new to learn with every walk and every sitting job, and I would love to have the opportunity to learn about your dog and hang out with them!
About: I have grown up with just about any type of furry friend you can think of, from dogs, to cats and horses. I currently have my own corgi puppy, and take care of my family and friend’s animals when they are traveling. I also have a degree in Animal Science and so as you can imagine I am passionate about my pets—I look forward to taking care of your fur-babies like they are my own. I’m currently working part time and my schedule varies from days to nights on shift. However I can generally adjust my schedule per week as needed. I am very detail oriented and will follow your directions to a tee. I would say that I am more meticulous about caring for others animals than anything.

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

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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
