“Dayle is amazing! From the moment she walked in to meet my often difficult Kali girl, I knew it would be a good fit. Kali instantly jumped on her and gave kisses.. Which she doesn't often do! I went to an all day event and needed someone to just take her out a couple times. Dayle was great about flexible scheduling and making it work. And she's just an amazing human all around! I will definitely seek her out next time I need some help.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting dogs and cats for the past 10 years and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Having dogs and cats of my own has given me a strong understanding of how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets keep their usual routine so they feel at home. I am currently working part time and will be sure to provide my availability, so that together we can be sure your pet is given the best possible care. I will ensure your pet is well cared for while you're away, providing them with plenty of attention and care. They are family afterall.
About: I've been the go-to pet sitter since I can remember. From high school to adulthood, I have cared for a range of dogs and cats (along with some smaller critters, too!). I bring a personalized, intentional approach to my care. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible during your absence! I work remotely, so I have a lot of flexibility day to day. I cannot host animals in my home, but I am happy to come to your space to care for your pet where they are most comfortable. I am also an avid trail runner and hiker, so if you have an active pup that enjoys those sorts of activities (and doesn't mind a leash), I am happy to discuss taking them on short adventures in town. I work part-time and am fully remote, so I have a lot of flexibility day to day. I am happy to spend as much (or as little) time in your space as you and your pet want/need. Though I cannot host pets in my own home currently, I am happy to come to yours to care for your pet! When I am in your space, I always make sure to leave things as I found them. I will ensure your pet is fed, hydrated, comfortable, and adequately exercised — whether that means playing a round of fetch with them in the yard or taking them on a walk.
“JayJay did a great job. I was on the other side of the country and felt very comfortable with her taking care of my dog. Her daily updates gave me a sense of security that my fur baby was in good hands.”
About: My Husband and I have taken care of dogs since we were teenagers, having dogs of our own- we have the experience needed to ensure that your loved one aka furry family member will be safe, taken care of properly, and loved! I’m currently available 24/7- any day of the week! Which gives me plenty of time to give your fur babies all of the love, care, and attention they deserve! I have 2 small pups of my own- they are both crate trained/friendly to other dogs and we live in an apartment complex that has tons of grass areas for potty and or play time! Caring for your pups in your own home is something I can do as well! I just want your pets to feel as comfortable as they can and you too! I’m very big on Safety when it comes to our pets. Safety is my ultimate priority (and giving my all to your pets is a must for me.) I will always keep you updated and ensure your dogs stay happy!
About: I am an aspiring vet student who has 10 plus years of experience with cats and dogs both owning and sitting for. I have medical knowledge that other sitters may not have as I work at an ER for pets as a nurse! I am extremely flexible with my time and availability and will ensure that your pet gets the well-deserved love and care they need! As a bonus, I can offer nail trims, sanitary shaves, and ear cleanings during their stay if requested! I'm currently working part time night-shift, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets! I make my own schedule during the day, so I can easily work around your pet's needs. I have a dog and cat myself at my apartment that are well socialized to be around other dogs. I can accommodate up to two dogs in my apartment if needed and can also go to your home if preferred. For cats, I find it best to go to them. I do not have a yard, but my apartment complex is pet friendly with a play area and lots of walking trails nearby.
About: Meet our family Hi there! My name is Erin. I'm an animal lover with varied lifelong animal experience including working for a veterinarian, animal training and animal care (for my own furry children as well as others furry family members). My husband Owen and I have three amazing pups in the house currently ranging from 2 to 15 years. Two sweet Aussies pups and then our senior Pappy-Pom who is still quite a sassy boy. I have always been a true dog lover. My mom was somewhat less than thrilled when I began to bring home every stray I could find to make sure that we could find their mom. I grew up reading James Harriot books as well as anything involving dog behavior or training and began training our family dogs before I was even in my teens. My dogs have always been part of the family and that is how I will treat yours! We love spending as much time as we can outdoors in nature or at pet friendly venues with our furry kids (and at the lake when warm enough). My experience administering medication I am experienced with administering medication and have done so for my own animals as well as for patients when I worked at a veterinary clinic. My schedule is somewhat flexible and any animals I care for would be prioritized. (I would not accept a responsibility I could not fulfill. I take animal care very seriously and I would expect that for my own furchildren.) Time I'll spend with your dog Any time your pet is in my care they will have my full attention (and a constant companion if they get along with my own pet).
“It’s been a pleasure having Ryan take my dogs out daily. He is punctual, conscientious and communicative. My dogs took to him right away. If you’re looking for a dependable guy who’s good with dogs, Ryan is the man!”
About: Hello, I'm Devin! I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets, having lived with 5 dogs and 3 cats as well as other animals throughout my life. This has given me a strong understanding of their different needs, behaviors, and personalities. I've also lived with a puppy and understand how hard at times it can be to deal with them, but I also understand how fun and worth it, it is. I've also volunteered at SPCA for a summer camp where I learned how to take care of dogs and cats and be around more animals! Although pets are very important to me I must prioritize my classes, which end at the latest 2:30 pm, but after I can push aside anything else to make any cat or dog happy. I love to make a dog or cat feel happy and comfortable. I will happily play with any pet and go for walks until that dog or cat is tired, or I can just chill on the couch and relax because I know every animal, just like a human, needs some chill time too.
About: I have owned dogs all of my life and have cared for and taught them all the basic pet commands. I have also worked at a doggy daycare for multiple months and have been a pet parent favorite Canine Coach I’m currently a college student that has class Monday through Friday mostly in the morning with evening classes on Friday. I am available all weekends for home/pet sitting. I am able to do overnight stays on weekends as long as I can go to class in the morning. In my own home I have a Dalmatian where I take him out hourly with 2 walks and if my schedule permits a car ride to the dog park. I always check my dogs water bowls and feed him two times a day with proper spacing of eating and exercise to ensure no bloating or stomach issues. I have also taught him to use the correct restroom spot in the backyard
About: Worked closely with dogs and cats in a general practice veterinary clinic, developing a strong understanding of animal behavior, body language, and overall welfare. Gained experience recognizing signs of good health as well as changes in behavior or condition that may indicate illness or stress. Prioritized providing calm, compassionate care while ensuring each animal's safety and comfort, building confidence in handling pets with a variety of personalities and needs. I work full-time from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On those days, I'm available for check-ins or potty breaks before 7am or after 5:30pm, resulting in 8+ hours. On Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I have a much more flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits, potty breaks, walks, or playtime every couple of hours as needed. I'm committed to making sure each pet receives reliable care, attention, and plenty of love while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I take extra care to prevent escapes by being mindful around doors, gates, and leashes, and I always pay close attention to each pet's body language to help them feel comfortable and reduce fear or stress. I understand that every animal has a different personality, and I'm happy to work at their pace to build trust. For everyone's safety, I do not offer boarding in my home or bring my own pets to client homes, as I have a reactive dog and cats of my own. This allows me to give your pet my full attention in the environment where they are most comfortable.
“Connor was great with our dog! Our dog is easily distracted, and he taught him some techniques to improve his leash walking. Would definitely book again!”
About: 1st ingredient is passion! Ive had a love for animals since is was a kid. After high school I went to school in Manhattan and worked walking dogs and was hooked. I Went on to get my certification in basic obedience training. I have worked on and off my whole life with dogs it is truly the best job in the world to me. All the years that i have been with dogs all my clients say I am trustworthy, reliable and will go beyond the call of duty to help animals. My main objective whenever I take on an animal of any kind is Safety First! I always evaluate the animal to see how it responds to its owner and then how it responds to me and then how we respond together as a pack. Even if the client tells me their animal is okay to walk with me with other animals if I sense any sort of tension I will say no. Dogs do not have the ability to reason that's why it is very very important to speak their language and sometimes that takes a lot of patience which I have because of my devotion. I am recently retired, 2 years now. That gives me a free week including weekends to provide love and care for all fur babies in need. My entire condominium is set up for Doggy Daycare and it's wonderful it's very welcoming! There are quite a few walking paths in the neighborhood! I live in a 2 story condo with 2 private balcony's. I am on the end unit and have that side of yard (not fenced) to myself. I installed 3 separate auger tie-out cables into the ground., each 30 ft. The condo association takes care of the yard so it is well maintained. This is roughly a 10 unit dwelling surrounded by houses. 75% familys. We also have our own park. walking path and a field dedicated to dogs. I live up against BLM land so there is an awesome path to walk up as well. At Doggie Daycare they all know when it's time to go for there afternoon walks it is the cutest thing to watch them go to the front door and wait. I'm old school and still live by "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" And " treat it like it was your own" I believe all living things and non should be treated with respect. I can assure you lots of play time and love!

About: Experienced dog lover that has raised several newborn puppies and older dogs. Ranging from small chihuahuas to large german shepherds and rottweilers. Here to help!

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 Lockwood. 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.

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.
