About: What sets me apart from other sitters? For me, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly believe in “soul dogs,” the once-in-a-lifetime companions who leave paw prints on our hearts forever. I feel incredibly lucky to share my life with two amazing dogs of my own: Dax, my gentle 110-pound giant, and Sandy, my spirited 23-pound sidekick. Living with dogs of very different sizes and personalities has taught me how every dog has unique needs, routines, and ways of communicating. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and love I give every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks and playtime, or prefers quiet companionship and belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, understand the importance of consistency, and believe that trust is earned through kindness and reliability. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. My goal isn’t just to watch your dog—it’s to become someone they’re excited to see again. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My two dogs, Dax and Sandy, have consistent routines for feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention, and I understand how important that consistency is for every dog. I work away from home Monday through Thursday, but I have a predictable schedule with consistent departure and return times. This allows me to provide reliable care and lets pet parents know exactly what to expect. On my days off, I spend most of my time at home, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of my family. My home is a safe, welcoming environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervised play throughout the day. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can run, explore, play fetch, or simply relax in the sunshine. On warm days, I like to put out a small dog pool so pups can cool off and have a little extra fun. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers lounging outside and soaking up the fresh air, I’ll make sure they have an enjoyable stay. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is that I don’t just watch dogs — I care for them. I’m very attentive to their routines, their energy, and what makes them feel safe. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and gentle with senior dogs who need extra love and understanding. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel comfortable, calm, and truly cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine. I plan my day around the dogs in my care, making sure they get consistent attention, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and rest. I’m home and present, so your pet isn’t left alone for long periods. Caring for dogs is something I intentionally make time for, not something I squeeze in. Safety, trust & environment How do you care for pets in your home and/or your client's home? This will vary depending on which service you offer.

About: have hands-on experience working with dogs in multiple dog daycare environments, where I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My experience includes supervising group play, feeding, walks, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and making sure dogs remain safe and comfortable throughout the day. I’ve also provided regular pet-sitting and one-on-one care, so I understand that every dog has different routines, energy levels, and needs. Working in dog daycares has taught me how important patience, consistency, communication, and paying attention to a dog’s body language are. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and take their care seriously. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, entertained, and comfortable while they’re in my care. 🐾🤍 Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. I currently care for Apollo, my two kittens, and a small dog, so I’m very used to building my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter care, cleaning, and giving each animal individual attention. Because I already have pets at home, I understand how important consistency and routine are. I make sure I have enough time in my day to give the pets in my care the attention they need rather than treating pet sitting like something I’m squeezing in. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for other people’s pets fits naturally into my lifestyle. 🐶🐱🤍 Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medication or basic care, and plenty of attention. I have a fenced-in home, which gives dogs a secure space to get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I also have experience caring for my own pets—Apollo, my two kittens, and a small dog—so I understand how important it is to be patient and attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines and make sure their environment stays clean and comfortable. I also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are doing well while they’re away. 🐶🐱🤍

About: I've had animals of all shapes and sizes since childhood, and now pet sit for family and friends, both drop in and overnight. Haven't met a critter I didn't love,from a 180lb Newfador to a 3lb guinea pig, and everything in between. I have been lucky enough to be able to walk big dogs, little dogs, and even cats. I appreciate the opportunity to play, love on and care for your furry family members. I am available on shorter notices to shower your furry ones with all the love and attention they can handle. Whether they are cats, dogs, goats, horses, chickens or ducks! My home is currently filled with 4 very jealous, very large cats, so I'll have to come to you. I will keep your animal safe, cared for and happy. I'm neat, organized, prompt and excited to meet all the pets. I have a wide open schedule to give your pets the time and attention they need. It's like a mini vacation for them as well, complete with all the pamperings. When house-sitting your pets won't be left alone longer than 4 hours at a time. I do offer constant care sitting for a fee. Fetch, walks, cuddles, whatever your pet enjoys is what we'll be doing. I have experience with all different animals and tailor our activities based on the specific needs of your animal.

About: I'll run, feed, and play with your dog all day! I use to care for my best friends dogs anytime she went away for a trip or a couple of hours before moving here so I definitely have experience. I would take them on walks. Let them run around in the backyard while playing fetch and so many other fun things. They love when I come around cause they know I will cuddle and pet/play with them as much as they want cause that's all they really want plus some food lol. They will be carefully taken care of as far as staying clean and using the bathroom when needed so there's nothing to worry about there at all. Dogs are literally the best I swear! I am currently self-employed so I have all the time in the world you could think of to care for your pups no need to worry! I have a dog playground in the closest proximity that I would love to take the pups to have all the fun in the world!

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 Locust Grove. 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.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Locust Grove after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
