About: I genuinely treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, intuitive, and focused on making animals feel safe, loved, and relaxed; whether it’s their first visit or their fifth. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including playful puppies with lots of energy and senior pets who need extra time, attention, and gentle handling. I’m great at picking up on a pet’s needs and adapting my care to match their personality. Whether they’re anxious, shy, energetic, or need medication, I’m calm, consistent, and always focused on their comfort. I also love sending photo updates to give pet parents peace of mind and a smile while they’re away. My goal is simple: give your pet the same love and care you would. I work from home full time, which gives me a super flexible schedule and allows me to be fully present for the pets I care for. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding routine, going out for regular walks, or just offering comfort and companionship throughout the day, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention without distractions. Because I’m home most of the day, pets aren’t left alone for long periods, and I can easily adjust to their specific needs—whether that’s frequent potty breaks, medication schedules, or just extra playtime and love. Pet care naturally fits into my daily rhythm and brings joy and balance to my work-from-home lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I create a cozy, pet-friendly environment with space to play, rest, and be themselves. I stick to their routines—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or medication—and provide lots of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day since I work from home. Pets are never left alone for long, and I always keep the space clean and stress-free. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and routines. I make sure your pet is cared for exactly the way you want—whether it’s sticking to a daily schedule, managing special needs, or simply keeping them company. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. In both cases, your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priority!

About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me.

What sets me apart is a deep sense of patience, attentiveness, and love that comes from years of hands-on experience. I’m especially comfortable with routines, emotional needs, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, mellow, senior, or somewhere in between, I show up with calm energy, genuine care, and a heart full of love for every pup I meet.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.
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. 🐶🐱🤍

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 Lovejoy. 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 a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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.

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.
