About: No matter the size, breed or personality of your pet, earning their trust and friendship (along with your own trust) is my top priority. I grew up in a multi-pet household taking care of dogs, birds and small animals. Since then, I have taken care of horses, anoles, cats, parakeets and my curiosity for getting to know an animal's individual personality has only grown over that time. I currently have two dogs: an Australian shepherd and border collie mix, both of whom I raised from puppies by myself. We are an active family, walking/hiking and in general spending time exploring the neighborhood for hours a day, traveling together for camping or cabin vacations in our free time. It's cliche, but my dogs are truly my family and as a long-time Rover user on the customer side, I understand what it means to have a sitter/walker you can trust while you're away. I love finding people who strive to understand them as individuals and who are sensitive to their needs. My border collie is highly sensitive and I have learned to work within his limits, giving him the stimulation he needs by finding more isolated parks to sniff around, mental challenges inside, etc. that keep him entertained while reducing stress. I am more than comfortable getting to know your own pets' quirks and finding ways to keep their days consistent and stress-free. Pet care is already at the center of my life, as I have two energetic herding dogs. We walk frequently every day to help burn energy -- I like to let my dogs walk at their pace so they can sniff around and stimulate their brains while getting exercise. As someone with pets I understand the importance of trust-building in drop-in visit situations. As your schedule permits, we can meet beforehand via a meet and greet to get a feel for your schedule and space, and how to support your comfort and your pets'. Pets thrive with routine, and I strive to support that.
“Remy is great with my dog! She is communicative and thorough. I know my dog is in great care with her. She is also a great photographer and sends the best pictures! I highly recommended Remy!”
“Leah has become Arlo’s buddy in no time! He gets excited to hear she’s coming for a walk. We’re happy with Leah as well. She responds very quickly and has helped us out with last minute booking. I’m very very happy with Leah!”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I understand how important pets are, and that they are more than just dogs or cats- they're family. And for some, they're the only family one's got. I will make sure your family is properly cared for no matter if it's an overnight stay, a quick play break, or a long walk. I'm currently working part-time and will be available to care for pets all day Friday-Monday, before 11:30 am Tuesday through Thursday, and after 4:45pm Tuesday through Thursday. In the month of July I will be working two full-time jobs so my availability will be strictly on weekends. The comfort and safety of your pet is my top priority. I will be patient and compassionate with your pet in order to meet their many care needs.
“Joanna walked our pup twice a day for five days while we were away. She was punctual, communicative, and my mom told us by day two Toad got excited every time Joanna came by. Really appreciate her professionalism and care for our boy!”
“Carrie was amazing! Great communication, on time and great pictures of our dog for her walks! Millie seemed like she had a blast with Carrie and had lots of play dates with her dog! I felt very comfortable leaving Millie in her hands. Thanks again!”
About: I’ve had different breeds of both cats and dogs throughout my entire childhood so I understand the responsibilities needed to properly take care of a variety of pets. My parents have also been on Rover for a couple of years and I alway love helping them out! This also means I understand the apps processes and how to navigate it. I’m a college student at Macalester college, so right now I’m on summer break. I am flexible with owners schedules and willing to driving all around the metro for visits or at home stays! I can do whatever the owner feels is necessary for their pet. Whether it’s putting pets into crates, or active play, or if meals need to be more hands on, I feel comfortable caring for them in pretty much any situation. I don’t have much experience caring for dogs with special needs, so some animals who need that type of assistance might be out of the realm of care I can provide.
“Jacqueline has been very professional and flexible when scheduling future walks. She has done a great job with Jasmine! My dog loves the winter weather and Jacqueline is very willing to take her out so she can enjoy walking in the snow!”
“Annie is fantastic! Our dog gets really excited when she sees Annie come to take her on a walk. Annie is a great communicator with us too. I highly recommend her to walk your furry loved one.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and I currently have my own fur baby! I have had experience in house sitting, dog sitting, and dog walking since I was 19 including senior dogs with various health problems. I promise to love your dog like I love my own! Please note I currently work a hybrid schedule in office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays where I am most available in the evenings. Mondays, Thursdays, and weekends are flexible for early morning, lunch, and evening hours!😊 I have my own 3 year puppy who can keep your fur baby company if needed who is crate trained, so I can crate your dog if needed. I value communication and will always be available via text/call with any questions or concerns
“She was great with my dog! Very professional and keeps your pet happy and safe on walks or drop-ins. She is very flexible with scheduling and she took very good photos of my dog on walks! Will hire again!”
“Lisa is awesome! Communicates so well and we felt so confident while we were gone that our dogs were well-cared for the whole time. She navigated our other instructions so well too. Our one dog is a recently adopted rescue, yet loved her and she understood him and was cool with him, we are so relieved, impressed and thankful!”
About: Hi there! Here’s some info about me, so you know your pets will be in great hands: By volunteering at an animal shelter, I learned experience for a wide range of animal needs. I truly love every animal I come into contact with. With my job that allows me to work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets needs. My schedule can be adjusted to fit yours. Your home and pet's safety are my top priority. As a pet owner, I know that communication is important with someone caring for your pet, so that is my standard as a pet-sitter.
“Sarah did a great job walking our dog, Isabella! She was available for a meet and greet beforehand, which we greatly appreciate, and she gave extra time for the walk as well. She was also very responsive and communicative. We look forward to having her walk Isa again!”
“Sy has been a lifesaver helping me with Lilly during the week!! She was super quick to respond to my initial request, which I was so grateful for because I needed services suddenly. And to top it all off, Lilly loves her so I feel like she’s in great hands whenever I’m gone! She goes above and beyond, even helping me with her medication when I asked. And she seems to really care about Lilly’s wellbeing, like she’s her own. Definitely recommend!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mendota
Highly recommend Jennifer!! My XL dog Panda warmed up to her immediately, and she has been totally comfortable and confident walking him even though he can be dog reactive. She’s also been wonderful with my small dog Alfie, who is very fearful of people and was recently diagnosed with epilepsy. He’s been having a hard time adjusting to the medication, and Jennifer has been incredibly patient with him while truly going above and beyond to earn his trust. She was also very flexible and understanding when Alfie wouldn’t walk because of the medication side effects, happily pivoting to playing with him in the backyard instead. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs are in such caring, capable, and attentive hands.
Jacqueline did a super job walking our senior pup, caring for his needs, and checking in on the two cats while we were gone. She always follows instructions, and communicates if there is a problem or question about their care. We are always confident that our pets will be safe and cared for when we book Jacqueline.

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 Mendota. 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 Mendota.

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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mendota. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
