“Our dogs absolutely loved their time with Anne. You can tell that she's a true dog lover and cares about them as if they were her own. We plan on using her on a weekly basis -- she is that good.”

“Jessica did a great job for us. We signed her up for 3 days. She was here right on time. Took my dog on a good walk. Shared the pictures. My son was here and said she did a great job. (He is unable to walk the dog but can direct the care).”

“Cory was great with my dog, who can be difficult and high energy. He sent plenty of pictures and updates during the visit. I highly recommend him - especially if you are looking for someone that will be patient with your pet!”

About: I have had dogs all my life but I just started taking care of other peoples dogs about 2 years ago. I will do anything to make sure your dog feels comfortable with me, just let me know their preferences!! I’m willing to walk, play, feed, hangout, and anything else your dog wishes to do with their time with me!! I work part time for the summer but it is very flexible so I will, in my best abilities make most days / times work!! Once the school year starts back up I am a full time collage student but I will still make dates / times work :) I am more than willing to come over multiple times a day to keep your furry friend entertained, I am willing to spend nights as well!! I have watched a verity of dogs, ranging from very energetic that needs multiple hours of play a day to dogs that don’t really want to be bothered. Anything your animal prefers I will provide :)

“Paige is so flexible and understanding. I had to cancel a couple hours before because my husband got sick. She graciously made the changes. She’s also fantastic with our pup. I highly recommend her.”

“This is our first time using Rover and Holly has been so wonderful! Not only is she on time and reliable, she is great at communicating and my dog is so happy for his walks! She happily incorporates his training during his walks and checks in with us, asking questions when needed to make sure she is doing everything right. I would highly recommend 🐾”

About: I have two dogs of my own that have taught me so much. Both of mine have reactive tendencies, so I am no stranger to dogs that need a little extra patience. I have spent many hours in training with my pups, so if you’re looking for someone to help reinforce some skills at home, I can do that! One of my dogs is also epileptic, so I have experience with complex medical needs as well. I have spent the past few months volunteering at a local dog shelter twice a week and I have genuinely loved spending time with the dogs and getting to know them and watch them blossom and find furever homes. I’m looking forward to spending even more time with some incredible furry friends! I currently do not work, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m open to one time sits/walks or something recurring! Overnights are not currently an option for me as I have my own pups to care for. I am looking for jobs at your home (or out an about); I do not offer in-my-home care at this time. But I can come over and spend time with your pet(s) while you’re at work or on date-night, stop in for walks or feeds/potty breaks, or take your dog on an outing like a hike or a trip to downtown! I’m flexible and open to whatever you and your pet need.
“Paige took great care and did very well with Eli on his walks, she even made sure he was content with a nice treat at the end. I would highly recommend Paige and will definitely be utilizing her services again.”

About: My name is Michelle. I’ve been dog sitting/walking for family/friends for around 11 years and have loved it. I have my own Bassett Hound named Cooper and he’s such a love-bug! I also have two cats Lester and Cici. I absolutely love animals and always treat them as if they’re my own. I tend to always feel really close to pets after I watch them, so feel free to ask me for help again! I’m so excited to meet and play with so many wonderful fur babies. If you have any questions, please message me.
About: Everybody knows me by the dog lover. If I can take every dog in the world I would. I have 2 years of experience at a dog daycare. As well as a year and a half with my own dog.

I am able to walk your dog multiple times threw out the day as well as going on long walks. I do not live in a house so I don’t have a fenced yard. Your dog will be fed 2-3 times a day depending on what you prefer. And water will be available threw out the day. No matter what your fur baby will be treated at my house the same way I would treat them at your house with love and affection.

Couldn't live without having a pet and caring for them, they are a blessing and great joy in our lives. I want to continue to donate to ASPC in Fredericksburg and Pekingese homeless pets in Richmond in need so they too can have the love and care they long for and I want to be apart of that so I can help all of Gods creation and show them love and care for the ones that I get to have the pleasure to sit in our home and give back in return to the ones in need. Every little that we sprinkle in someones lives is a gift that God gives us to spread the love. Why I love dog sitting since I was a child caring for dogs at 5 yrs old. About my yard We have a back yard and it is fenced in with plenty of running space and very private so the dogs can play and not bother the neighbors My experience administering medication Yes I have done it in the past to my dogs that needed medical attention I am currently working from home and will always be attentive to your babies which they will always have attention. The potty breaks will be every 2 hours or less if needed. My yard is fenced and I have cameras around also your babies will never be left unattended since I have a little one that I’m always going outside with him and playing with him so your baby will receive the same love and attention.
About: Hello! Whether you need someone to walk your dogs twice a day, check on your kitty, or house sit for a week, I’d love to help! I have several years of experience with both dogs and cats at various shelters including the SPCA and Burlington Animal Services. In addition to basic pet care including feeding, cleaning, and socializing, I have quite a bit of experience being a medical foster. Caring for injured animals and administering medications isn’t an issue for me. I’ve owned cats, dogs, and various farm animals throughout my life so I’m very comfortable caring for any animal’s needs. If you have a pet I haven’t yet cared for I would be more than happy to learn how to care for your baby as well as you would. I'm also happy to bathe your pets for free, I just clean their shampoo and brush. I absolutely adore animals and am really looking forward to getting to know yours! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions! I grew up with four high-energy terriers, so I’m very used to making sure that both pets and people are always safe in any given area. When I enter a home, I always open the door slowly with my leg blocking the gap to prevent excited pets from rushing out. Food or choking hazards are always kept out of reach either on counters or in cabinets and I’m completely comfortable with security measures like alarms and in-home cameras. My pets are a huge part of my life so I completely understand wanting to protect them to the best of your ability. I’m a full-time Rover sitter, so my schedule is super open. I know how hectic life can be and accept last-minute bookings, so please don’t hesitate to reach out! When housesitting, at least 80% of my time will be dedicated to your pets. I have to run errands from time to time, but other than that, I stay focused on them! I lock all doors and windows when I leave, at night, and generally during the day, and your home will look exactly how you left it! Regardless of the type of booking, I’m always very careful when I walk in to prevent animals from bolting outside.

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 McCarthys Corner. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in McCarthys Corner.

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 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% 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.
