“We have an older, timid Aussie and Tabitha did an amazing job of getting her to calm down when she entered the house and has implemented a few tricks in subsequent visits to make things smoother. Highly recommend her- she’s calm and clearly loves dogs!”

About: Hi! I'm a passionate pet sitter with professional experience working in both a boarding kennel and a veterinary clinic. During my time at the kennel, I cared for pets of all ages—from young puppies and kittens to senior pets—and worked with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I also have experience caring for pets with medical conditions and special needs, including administering medications and providing attentive, individualized care. Working in a veterinary clinic has further strengthened my knowledge of animal health and behavior, allowing me to recognize when a pet may need extra attention and provide confident, compassionate care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll treat them like one of my own. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind with regular updates and photos throughout my visits. 🐾 I currently work full time at the veterinary clinic but I can pop in multiple times a day to check on your furry friend(s) or I can also stay the night at your house 😊 When caring for your furry friends in their home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine as much as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box or potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of companionship and attention based on each pet’s personality and needs. I also have experience working in both a veterinary clinic and a boarding kennel, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including those with medical conditions or special care instructions. I understand that pets feel most secure in their own environment, so I take the time to make them feel calm and cared for while you’re away. I can administer medications if needed and will closely follow any instructions you provide to ensure their health and well-being. During each visit, I’ll also check that everything is safe and in order in your home, and I’ll provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pets are doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in caring, capable hands. 🐾
About: I’m a cat mom to Romeo and Cleo, and I love them like they’re my children. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are in safe, caring hands while you’re away. Finding someone you can trust makes all the difference, and I want to give other pet owners that same peace of mind. I’m reliable, attentive, and organized, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pets seriously. I cared for Oreo, my family’s rescue border collie, throughout my entire childhood and have dogsat for neighbors, friends, and family members for as long as I can remember. Whether your pet loves company and playtime or needs a little space to feel comfortable, I’ll follow their lead and be patient as they get to know me. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know how your pets are doing. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away and trust they’re being cared for by someone who understands how much they mean to you. 🩷🐾 I work from home, which gives me flexibility to fit cat care into my daily routine. Caring for Romeo and Cleo is already part of my everyday life, and I can plan visits around my work schedule to give your cats the time and attention they deserve. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect their space, and make sure your home is secure before leaving. I’ll send photos and updates and care for your pets with the same attention I’d want for Romeo and Cleo.
About: I’ve watch dogs and cats for four years when needed, from a one time visit to 2 weeks of checking in three times daily. I’ve also handled turtles and fish in the same capacity.

I’m a big fan of getting outside, so if your dog has energy to burn, we’ll hit the local trails to make sure they’re tuckered out and ready for a long nap. I also have hands-on experience with diabetic pups and am fully comfortable administering insulin injections, so your senior or special, needs friends, are in safe hands with me! Currently working part time, so I have a flexible schedule during weekdays and weekends. I am looking to ger outside more so I look forward to the pup walks. I have a fully fenced-in yard with plenty of grass and shade trees, perfect for afternoon sniffing and exploring! Plus, I have two dog-friendly cats who are totally unfazed by pups, making this a great spot for socialized dogs to hang out and relax.
“Ytalo took great care of our pups while we were gone for the weekend. We loved all the pictures and he kept us updated the whole time. Would definitely schedule with him in the future.”

“Tyler has been walking my two young energetic 60 lb. dogs for about two months. He's punctual, professional, friendly, and seems to genuinely enjoy seeing my crazy dogs in spite of their over-the-top energy levels. And they are always excited to see him. I'm very happy to have found Tyler via Rover and highly recommend him for your dog walking needs.”

About: Hi, I'm Kim! I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I'm a mom of 4 fur babies of my own and have had animals all my life. I am currently transitioning from a 13 year Nanny position into my dream job of caring for animals full time. Three years ago, I started pet sitting part-time and have gotten rave reviews and I absolutely love it!! (References available on request) My schedule is very flexible for drop-ins and overnight stays on a first come, first serve basis. I will come to your pet's home where they are most comfortable. Offering pet care services in your home, I follow the typical routine you and your pets have already established. They will keep their routine and not go through any traumatic transitions. The best part? Your fur baby is there when you get home. Your home will also have that "lived in" look. Mail will be picked up, plants watered, lights will be switched on and off, trash rolled to the curb, and any house issues that arise can be addressed. Especially for overnight or vacation services, I would love the chance to meet you and your pet(s) in your home ahead of time. I always encourage new clients to schedule a (free) 30-minute meet-and-greet before the first booking (either at your home or a public location) so that I can meet your pet(s). If I am doing a sitting or drop-in, then these are perfect for showing me where the food supplies are as well as bowls, litter box(es), and anything else that may be needed for the booking I send daily updates while you are away so your vacation is worry free. I am looking to establish a regular client base and consider pets as part of the family.

About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs my whole life, and 6 years ago my husband and I adopted a large rescue dog from Eastern Europe. She’s had a lot of anxiety and nervousness, but with lots of love, training, and patience she’s come a long way and fully trusts us now. I'm very patient and attune to animals needs and have experience around many breeds, needs, and sizes. The happiness and safety of your pet is my biggest concern. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, and I look forward to meeting you and your pet! My schedule is fairly flexible after work and on the weekends. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing in the house with their toys, and bonding. My husband and I love hiking and being outdoors and often go on long walks with our own dog. The safety and care of your pet is my biggest concern as I all too well know the feeling of leaving your beloved pet with someone else. Your dog will always be on a leash in my care and constantly looked after - I don’t take any risks when it comes to caring for your pet.
“Mel did an outstanding job with our dog, Buster. She did everything we asked her to do, but most importantly, she truly loved our pet. We will be calling on Mel for future dog sitting! Thank you Rover for helping us find her!”

I can’t say enough good things about Caitlyn. My Goldendoodle is a little wild (okay, a lot wild), and she handled him with patience and confidence on their 30-minute walk. My Goldendoodle came home happy and tired, which is the best compliment I can give! If you have a high-energy pup, Caitlyn is the walker you want. I’ll definitely be booking her again.

Francois was an amazing pet sitter and incredibly kind and helpful - we needed very last minute care for our sick aunt’s pets and she responded quickly. On the first day she was extremely understanding and helpful when our aunt’s home needed some tidying before it was ready for handoff of the pets’ care. She sent lots of photos and detailed updates. I cannot recommend her enough!

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 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.

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.

- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
