“Lily was fantastic with our two pups! She was on time, communicated clearly and was very reliable! She was able to help us out last minute in a time we really needed it. We will continue to use her in the future!”

About: I have hands-on experience helping my mom with her dog rescue nonprofit, where I helped transport and foster dogs. This gave me experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m happy to work around each pet’s routine, including walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of companionship. I live alone with no personal pets, so your pet can have my full attention in a calm and comfortable environment. I’m active and have easy access to nearby trails for walks and exercise. I also live in a quiet, friendly condo neighborhood, making it a safe and relaxing place for pets to stay. I’ll make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care based on their individual needs and routine.
“May was able to help out on short notice which was much appreciated. She was promot picking up Hulu for his walk and always sent update pics. We would definitely use May again.”

“Sarah was excellent! She accepted my request last minute and accommodated changes in plans. She kept me up to date before and after visits. Sent pictures and tracks from walks. She understood the needs of my aging but active border collie and kept her active and engaged while I was away for the weekend. She made sure that my dog was fed left the lights and music on for her when she left. She met and exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend. We look forward to Sarah visiting again!”

“Beth is great with Niko! She came over and met him the weekend before and did such a great job making him feel comfortable. After his first walk, Niko was happy and very content. Beth is super flexible and great to work with!”

“Lauren was quick to notice Riley's patch he had been scratching and took a photo for me. It was a great way to help me see what I was coming home to and how to prep for his care. AWESOME job.”
About: [Preferred name: Keith , He/They] I’ve helped take care of my family dogs since age 10, most being larger dog breeds (german shepherd, huskies, pitbull). From puppy chaos, to older dog care I’ve seen it all. Willing to accommodate for whatever needs- All dogs have their unique quirks and even if its tucking them in at night, Im up to it! I currently am on medical leave; disability causes physical limitations that are manageable through monitoring/breaks(impossible in food service). My schedule is rather free because of this, allowing me to plan events around pet care rather than the opposite, allowing me to prioritize their care! Best Contact Hours: 8am to 8pm (PT) I remain available for contact through message or call consistently! If desired updates during care may be sent, whether requested beforehand or spontaneously. [including pictures & videos of course!!] I have reliable transportation and am also willing to allow pets in my vehicle. Of course accidents occur, for such I have a waterproof pet blanket to prevent damage of any kind! [accidents or extra cleaning will never bring complaints/charges as it is expected with pets]
“Rebecca is awesome! Very friendly and our dog loved her. She used a door code to enter our home while we were gone, took our dog on a walk, brought him back, and locked back up without a hitch. Will definitely be booking her again in the future 😁”

About: We have been caring for dogs for many years. Starting from puppies to full grown dogs over the years and know how to understand what a dog needs for a healthy, happy, and full life. Aharon works from home most of the time. With just one dog at home it would be easy to add another. It’s easy to add another to the pack! We take our dogs outside for exercise twice a day and have play sessions in between. We have 1200 sqft of interior space for the dogs to play and chill with a fenced backyard. There’s also a dog park almost right in our backyard where we go to all the time. The area is residential and lots of families around that know us.
About: We’re a reliable, animal-loving mother-daughter team who genuinely enjoy caring for pets. We know every pet is unique, so we take the time to learn their routine, personality, and favorite activities to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or extra cuddles, we’ll provide attentive, loving care and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have complete peace of mind. We look forward to treating your pets like part of our family! My mom and I are available throughout the summer as well as after school and weekends during the school year. We love to check in on pets and walk them together. Every pet deserves to feel safe and understood. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their boundaries, and build trust through calm, reliable care. My focus is on creating a stress-free experience so both you and your pet can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I was always the go-to person for taking care of my neighbors pets. This included walks, feedings, playing, and more! I have worked with dogs of all ages. I am working full time and I am mostly working from my home, so my schedule is flexible to meet your and your pets needs. I care for pets in my clients home by ensuring pet safety at all times. I also make sure to work with the pets and am patient in the trusting process.
“Daniel has been super responsive and he asked great questions during the meet and greet. He definitely knows how to take care of animals. We appreciate that he took on the job to walk our dog last minute.”

About: I’ve taken care and grown up with dogs since I’ve been 4 years old. I have grown up with large dogs, small dogs, anxious, bad behaved and well behaved dogs. I’ve trained all my dogs growing up. Taking care of young puppies and senior pups. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your animals! I typically work on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursdays from 9-5pm. I’m fully available every Tuesday and Thursdays and every weekend! I can also fit in your animals after my part time job!! I can easily crate your dog if needed, feed them and take them on walks! Or if your animal is just needed or some company I am available for all!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Maple Heights-Lake Desire
I’m so happy I found Natalia and Miguel! They’ve been wonderful with my Gunner. He’s a very high-energy Weimaraner and can definitely be a handful at times, but they’ve been so patient, attentive, and caring with him. Communication has also been great, and I really appreciate the updates and pictures while I’m at work. It gives me peace of mind knowing Gunner is getting exercise, attention, and is being well taken care of while I’m away. Natalia has also been thoughtful about his safety and comfort and communicates with me if she notices anything or has a suggestion. Gunner is always so happy after spending time with them, and I’m very grateful to have found someone I can trust with him. I would definitely recommend Natalia and Miguel!

Jessie has been an amazing dog walker for us. She is always kind, patient, reliable, and on time. She communicates very well and always keeps me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. I especially love the little notes Jessie leaves on the review card after each walk. I really enjoy reading them because they show how much attention and care she gives to my dog. I feel very lucky to have Jessie taking care of my dog. She is trustworthy, caring, and truly goes above and beyond. I highly recommend her!

Jessica is very professional and did great with our dog. Our dog can be nervous with new people or strangers, and Jessica's calm pressence really put him at ease. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and provided great notes quickly after the walk. Will def be going with Jessica for our future dog walking and pet sitting needs.

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 Maple Heights-Lake Desire. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
