About: I’ve lived with or taken care of dogs of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and needs my entire life! Have a high energy and chaotic fur baby? It’s a good thing I love walks and playing! Got a more relaxed and calm dog? We can go to the park and read a nice book together! I am a recently graduated college student waiting to start my Masters program so my days are vastly open! I would love to fill my days with your animals and helping out where I can! I am attentive to all animals and carefully read all care instructions left by owners. I am also very careful with the weather conditions as animals are more susceptible to heat and cold then we are!
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. As a pet owner myself, I understand that dogs and other animals are more than just pets, they’re family. I love to run, so feel free to ask especially if you have a high energy pup. I’ll treat your furry friends with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own, whether we’re going on a walk, playing outside, or relaxing at home. I’m comfortable with active dogs and love getting outside, so I’m always happy to help your pup get the exercise, attention, and enrichment they need. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and dedicated to making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, trustworthy hands! I am a full time college student who is also a volleyball player. I have a lot of free time out of the fall season. I am open a lot of breaks and off volleyball season. I have a dog named peanut in my home who is very friendly. I would love to get her another dog to have fun with. She does great at dog parks and loves both small and large dogs. I do kennel my dog because she is very hyperactive at night but I have never kenneled my other dogs at home. If your dog is house trained and doesn’t need to be kenneled there is no need for it. We have plenty of toys and I love taking the dogs to the dog park or on walks.
“Caitlin was great! She is so kind, friendly, and caring! She took great care of my dog and worked with me through all the craziness of moving places! You can tell she really loves and cares about animals! She is also a great communicator and leaves a detailed report card!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up surrounded by pets. I spent many years going to dog shows and caring for animals including horses, cats, hamsters, doves, turtles, fish, and of course dogs. I currently have three dogs of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. I treat every animal like family and focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I am currently a stay at home parent with a flexible schedule. My work background is in social services. I’m happy to find what works best for your schedule. I have a fenced yard and we use a crate if necessary at night. Not currently boarding pets in my home but happy to serve pets in your home.
“Alicia is the best! My boy loved her and she was very in tune with his needs. Her experience was valuable for me to learn from. He was so happy after his walk to have a special friend :)”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 421 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Metolius. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Metolius. 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.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Metolius 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 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 Metolius. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
