“Beth has been a godsend for Gracie, my German Shepherd. Beth has been taking her for walks and she is excellent with her. She has a background in dog training and she gently lets the dog know who is boss. She is kind and reliable. Gracie has never been used to having someone outside the family care for her. She has very quickly learned to trust her and enjoys their time together. Two paws up for Beth! ?”
About: Hello, my name is Kaitlynn. I have and do love working and helping with animals my whole life. I’ve had at least one animal my whole life. I love playing, teaching, helping, and even sleeping with all kinds. I would love to watch your animals, all shapes and sizes. I’ve stayed at peoples houses and dog sat while also house sitting, I can do that as well. I hope you can consider me as someone who you would like to watch your furry, or not so furry, friend! I have 3 cats! My oldest, Bubbles, is almost 2 years old and I've had him since he was 8 weeks old! My youngest two are sisters, Bee and Biscuit! They're almost a year old and I've had them since they were 8 weeks old as well! I had a cat and a dog (they've passed away due to old age). My cat stayed downstairs and my dog stayed upstairs with us. They didn't get along too well so we kept them separate. My cat didn't mind other cats at all, she was almost 16 years old. My dog didn't like other dogs too much, she was around them when she was younger but she liked her space the older she got. She was 11 years old. I'm currently unemployed due to my job being closed by the owner. I'll always try to work around my schedule and yours to make sure your furry baby gets what they need! I would prefer to care for your animal in your home, I know new places and spaces could make some animals nervous. My cats are still very young and I'm not sure how they would react to another animal in my home. So this is just my preference to make sure everyone is comfortable and safe. I would follow every instruction that is given and never do less. I want to make every animal comfortable and feel safe around me, no matter what. I pride myself on loving animals just like they're our own kids.
“Absolutely recommend! Very wonderful and very reliable! We got pictures of our girls on their walks and they were so happy and it was very comforting to know our girls were being so well cared for while my husband and I were away! I cant thank her enough!!!”
About: I’m a dog trainer with a background in shelter work and years of experience caring for dogs of all kinds — from laid-back family pets to reactive and high-drive working dogs. Dogs are my people, and it shows. Whether your pup needs a structured walk or a friendly face and person to play with while you’re away, you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who truly gets dogs. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a lot of availability in my schedule to spend time with your pups! I will make sure to make your dog feel comfortable and most importantly LOVED while in my care! I will be sure to feed your dog and also make sure he/she gets the proper exercise and attention! I am willing to walk your dog, or even go on a longer adventure if your dog prefers that!
About: Hi! I’m Ashley, a lifelong animal lover with over 11 years of professional animal welfare and rescue experience. Cats are a huge part of my life, but I also have experience caring for dogs and understand how to read their body language, recognize stress, and earn their trust. My background includes animal sheltering and adoption, fostering, TNR, socializing shy and fearful animals, caring for kittens and puppies, and working with pets with medical and special needs. I’m also the founder of a nonprofit cat rescue and TNR organization, so I’ve cared for just about every feline personality, from confident attention-seekers to spicy kitties who prefer their space. I’m experienced with feline and canine body language, medication routines, enrichment, and keeping pets as close to their normal routine as possible. I always move at their pace and never force interaction. During visits, I’ll provide fresh food and water, litter box care or potty breaks, and plenty of attention based on your pet’s comfort level. That may include playtime, walks, pets, brushing, treats, or simply sitting quietly with a shy pet. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and compassionate, and I pay attention to the little things. You can also expect plenty of updates and photos while you’re away! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As the founder of a cat rescue and TNR organization, I care for cats every day while also working remotely, which gives me flexibility when scheduling visits. I’m dependable, organized, and comfortable following each pet’s normal feeding, medication, playtime, and care routine. I care for pets in their own homes by keeping their routine as familiar and consistent as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, keep food and water areas clean, secure doors and gates, and make sure the home is safely locked after each visit. I understand both cat and dog body language, so I approach each pet calmly, move at their pace, and never force interaction. I take time to build trust, especially with pets who are shy, nervous, or adjusting to someone new. I also provide updates and photos so clients can feel confident that their pets and home are safe and well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Midlothian. 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 Midlothian 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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
