About: I'm an animal welfare professional actively building toward a career in animal behavior and training, grounded in real-world shelter experience and a deep commitment to whole-animal care. My shelter background has given me hands-on experience with high-volume intake, humane handling of anxious and behaviorally complex animals, and close collaboration with medical, admissions, and volunteer teams. I work calmly under pressure and communicate clearly across all parts of an organization. Over the past year I've been going deeper into the areas I care most about: balanced training, behavior modification, play-based training, and socialization and neutralization work. I'm also drawn to the less-talked-about foundations of animal health, including nutrition, husbandry, and how they shape behavior. Training a personal service dog has been one of my most formative experiences, giving me an up-close look at how relationship, consistency, and technique intersect. Cats are just as central to my work as dogs, and honestly my own life. My first adopted cat came to me severely behaviorally challenged, and watching our relationship transform through the right nutrition, training, and species-appropriate enrichment has been one of the most rewarding experiences I've had with any animal. It deepened my belief that understanding the feline mind is just as important as understanding canine behavior, and I'm passionate about helping people see cats differently. Not as low-maintenance or mysterious, but as complex, communicative animals who thrive when their needs are truly met. Something I feel strongly about is helping the broader community understand what shelter life is really like — how it affects animal behavior, the many reasons dogs and cats end up there and are returned, and what that means for families considering adoption. There's so much misunderstood about shelter animals, and I think better public education leads to better outcomes for everyone. I do pet care full time as I train dogs and cats! I have a full house of animals with two cats, two dogs and a reptile! We enjoy an active life with walks, play and adventure although have a nice balance with rest too:) Safety is my #1 priority. I firmly believe that a trained animal is a happy animal! Every animal that comes into my care has clear expectations so everyone can thrive to the best of their ability. If at daycare, I have the ability to crate and separate dogs and I have a clean, fenced in backyard that has a doggy pool for those warm summer days! For check ins and walks, i'm all about what is most comfortable for the pet. If your cat just needs someone to clean their litter box, thats what I'm there for! Wether its a potty break or full adventure, I'm here for it!
“Joshua came to walk my pups on a rainy day. This is the most difficult time to walk them as they hate rain and are shy around new people. He did great! He took them both out and checked in with me to keep me up to speed and if he had any questions. I have trouble taking them out in rainy days so 10/10 will definitely book again!”
“Austin is very good. He seems to intuitively understand my dog and she went with him almost instantly. He knows how to make a dog comfortable. He's trustworthy as well.”
“Marcela did an amazing job!! She was so communicative and responsive, and took great photos and videos of the walk. I can tell my dog got comfortable with her very quickly, and that she was able to read his communication and body language very quickly as well.”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Brianna. I'm 30 years old looking for an opportunity to make a second income especially doing something I enjoy. I am a full time employee in the city but would love to spend my spare time off playing and taking care of your pets. I've had dogs, cats and even a snake growing up. I love animals and always will. Unfortunately, I can't afford one right now so it'll be great to get paid to play and take care of one. If you're looking for a genuine girl to love your pet, I'm the one you can count on. Pets are really good at knowing who to trust and they will definitely love me. I will make sure they receive all the attention, love and care they need. Looking forward to meeting your fur babies 😊 I am a full time employee in the city but will have plenty of time on the weekends to take care and walk your fur babies I have experience walking dogs as well as taking care of cats. I used to have a fur baby named Bella who was a husky and had lots of energy since she was a pup. I have learned how to walk energetic dogs as well as being patient with them. I will ensure your baby will be well taken care of as well as loved 🥰
About: The first dog that I fell in love with was Charlie, my best friend’s beagle. I cared for him for weeks at a time, and that’s when I realized how much I enjoy looking after dogs. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for several pets, both on and off the books, and each experience has made me love it even more. Although I’ve never owned a dog myself, I have a deep respect and appreciation for them. I understand the dedication, planning, and responsibility that goes into making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. As much as we wish we could bring our pets everywhere, sometimes the best choice is leaving them in a place where they feel at home. That’s the experience I aim to provide: reliable and thoughtful care that supports your pet’s comfort without requiring you to sacrifice your plans. I am currently unemployed and I live with my parents (who also love dogs), so there’s almost always someone home. I was working at Central Park for these last few months, but now that the season is over I can dedicate myself to working my dream job… along with finding a career that goes with my degree. I’ve cared for dogs both in my own home and in clients’ homes. Our quiet neighborhood has plenty of small parks and green spaces for quick walks or a good 30–35 minute wander. I also have a ground-floor apartment with a fenced backyard where dogs can roam, zoom, or take care of their business when a full walk isn’t ideal. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow whatever routine works best for their dog. I can stay overnight or visit in the mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and light grooming. My priority is keeping each dog comfortable by sticking to the routine they know.
“Thank you, Cailey! Sammy appreciates your patience as he takes a bit to warm up to someone but you seem to have a calm temperament and opened up quickly. We’ll definitely be rebooking.”
About: Hi, I'm Maria a pet-friendly and responsible caregiver with experience caring for my own pets, my uncle’s dogs and my neighbor senior dog. I’m very careful and attentive with their well-being, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With an extroverted, kind, and trustworthy personality, I build great connections with both pets and their owners. Some of my skills are: * Daily feeding & maintaining routines * Walking & exercise for active care * Attentive supervision & affection I'm currently working part time since I'm in college my free days are monday and friday all day so I can properly take care of your pet. I live in a cozy basement apartment with direct access to a fenced backyard, perfect for safe play and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy supervised outdoor time, comfort indoors, and lots of affection. Whether at my home or a client’s, I’m careful, attentive, and committed to keeping pets happy and secure.
About: Hi l'm Christian, I have 8 years of pet experience. I own a pitbull named Zeus. So I can handle any pet situation. I've also watched my friends and family pets, and took care of them for extended periods of time. I will ensure your dog gets the proper walk and love and care it needs! As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I would follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. I’d also make sure their home is respected and kept clean while giving their pet plenty of attention, care, and comfort
“Kyra is fabulous! Super quick to respond, super helpful and my dog immediately liked her, which is hard because I have an anxious pup that usually hides from strangers. She's great, takes care of everything and is totally open when I make my little particular requests so that my lil' picky dog is always happy to see her! Thanks Kyra!!!!”
“Asher did a wonderful job watching our dog, Hendrix! Hendrix is sometimes not the most comfortable around strangers but we knew he was in good hands with Asher and really warmed up to him. Asher was always very responsive and kept us posted on updates. We will definitely ask Asher to dog sit again.”
“My Hero, Tedy is so reliable and attentive to my dogs needs. She has been walking my dog for weeks and I only have the most positive things to say about her professionalism, and loving nature. She is punctual and I get to see videos of my dog’s reactions to her visits which are so heartwarming because my dog loves her. Tedy will be an asset to anyone who is looking for support caring for our little family members.”
About: Hello! My name is Faith and I am a pet sitter with 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even lizards! Over the past ten years, I have gained experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I find joy in getting to know your pet’s unique personality and catering to their needs! As I am pet sitting full time, I have open availability for drop-in visits, housesitting, and walking, and am able to accommodate to your pet’s specific schedule. I prioritize safety, routine, and communication. When housesitting or doing drop-in visits, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely and maintain your pet's normal schedule to eliminate any stress! When walking, I am alert and attentive, and I am mindful of your pet's walking/socialization habits.
“Natalia has been an amazing, loving, kind care taker for my dog. You can really tell she’s an animal lover. Natalia is very communicative during her time with my dog and always sending picture updates. She’s super reliable and punctual. I feel at ease leaving my dog in her care. She goes above and beyond for him and he looks forward to her visits. I can’t thank you enough and appreciate you taking such good care of my baby.”
“Devora is the best. We are so happy that she was able to take care of Cherry for us. Her Rover cards are detailed and thoughtfully written. We hope she is available when we need her next. She is great!”
“Briana has been amazing! Very puntual, polite and great communication skills. My 2 pups adore her. She has also been flexible to help me when i am working late and my pups need afternoon walks. I will continue booking with her.”
About: Studying dog behavior has given me an upper hand working with various breeds of dogs. I've had dogs all my life, took care of puppies and rescued dogs for more than 10 years, and now I bathe and groom dogs part-time. I bathe and groom dogs part-time and help care for and walk my neighbors dogs regularly. Now I'm looking to add more dogs to the schedule. I take the upmost care of all dogs that come into my care. When grooming, safety and comfort are my priority. I do my best to make sure your pet has as comfortable an experience as possible, and comes out looking their best! When walking dogs I make sure to stay alert and keep any dog in my care safe and secure at all times.

Love having Liza walk my lil man! She is always so communicative, reliable, & helpful. Even though my dude is small he’s quite spunky and needs careful & attentive eyes and she does so well with him and always takes the greatest pictures. 🥰 I always have peace of mind when knowing she will be with him! Highly recommend.
Heidi was wonderful with my dog, Rocco! This was his first time walking with her, and she made me feel very comfortable. She kept me updated, sent several photos during the walk. Rocco was excited to see her and seemed happy and relaxed with her. She is kind, professional, and clearly cares about the dogs she walks. I will definitely book Heidi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!

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 Middle Village. 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Middle Village. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
