About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. Over the years I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, from furry friends to reptiles, so I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, cuddle, or just needs someone patient and reliable to care for them, I’m happy to provide the attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always care for them with the same love and dedication I’d give my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pets! When you book with me, you can expect dependable, loving care for your pets while you’re away. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals—from furry friends to reptiles and even slithering companions—so I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves personalized attention. Because I have my own wonderful crew of animals at home, I’m unable to offer overnight stays or boarding in my home. However, I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and attentive care to make sure your pets stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I’ll treat your pets like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved companion is a big decision, and I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own animals. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic care, or providing plenty of playtime and affection, I’ll make sure your pet receives attentive, individualized care. Communication is important to me, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress experience where your pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for until you return home.

“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals since I could remember. Been around Great Danes to yorkies and love them all. I also have a cat and dog of my own both I’ve rescue and adore. I’ve also trained my dog, I’ve had her since she was 7 months old. I train with positive attitude and treats. I was relied on by family and friends to watch, walk and feed their pets. Occasionally would do some basic training to help keep up and of course cuddles. My pets are friendly with other animals, my dog gets excited when she gets to meet new friends and then goes about her business. I also have a crate for my dog if anything. I try to give the visiting pup a chance to sniff around first and get warmed up before I let my dog meet her. Allows both dogs to calm down and be relax by then.

About: I've raised animals, mammals and reptiles mostly, my entire life. I'm known amongst my friends and family as "snow white", because creatures of all kinds seem to enjoy my presence to a strange degree, something I'm very grateful for. The well-being of your pet is my number one priority, I am attentive and detail oriented in my care style. If your pup is up for it, I can run around the backyard with your dog for hours on end! I currently work full-time at AllPaws Retreat, where I manage groups of 30+ dogs at a time; reading body language, redirecting energy, gentle behavior correction, capturing momentary obedience training opportunities, and building trust with dogs of all temperaments is the bulk of my day. In a client's home, water bowls will be kept full, any accidents will be cleaned as soon as possible, and I will adhere to your desired feeding schedule. If you have a backyard or a private outdoor area, I will gladly spend time with your pet there, making sure they don't get too scratched up or dehydrated from play. I will be in contact with you throughout the duration of the sitting period. Daily fun pictures will be sent! I will mention concerns over noticed behaviors that seem out of the ordinary or indicative of possible health conditions. My work schedule is very fluid, if you give me two weeks prior notice I can even clear my previous work schedule for your convenience. My two cats are fed twice a day, with their box being cleaned every morning and night. My youngest child, a ball python of 5 years is currently on medium sized rats, which he gets approximately every 2 weeks At a client's home, I will make sure to stay within designated animal areas if you so desire, keep the animal hydrated and fed as needed (also according to your desired feeding schedule) Any bathroom accidents will be cleaned by my own hand asap, taking care of animals is in my blood.

About: Hi there! My name is Kira! I’ve worked at The Franklin County Dog Shelter, managed boarding facilities and doggy daycares, and I currently work at two Veterinary Emergency Hospitals. I’m comfortable with pets of all temperaments and energy levels — from shy or anxious babies to high-drive chaos gremlins. I have three dogs and three cats of my own, and a lot of my free time is spent training and finding ways to keep them mentally and physically fulfilled. I really love learning how each animal thinks and what makes things work best for everyone. I only accept bookings on days I know I’ll be fully available, so your pet isn’t just another stop in a packed schedule. I stick closely to your routines, can handle medications, and will always communicate clearly if anything seems off. I also love sending photo updates (probably too many), because I know how hard it can be to be away from them. My goal is simple: I want you to feel completely comfortable, and I want your pet to feel understood. I can’t wait to meet your crew! What you can expect when booking with me: • Reliable availability on reserved dates • photo + video updates (I love pet photography!) • Strict adherence to your pet’s routine • Clear communication • A sitter who knows what’s normal (and what’s not!) I only accept bookings on days I know I’ll be fully available, so your pet isn’t squeezed into a busy schedule. When I’m with them, I’m with them. During drop-ins and walks, I follow your routine closely, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their own space. I’m experienced with administering medications and recognizing when something isn’t normal due to my background in veterinary emergency medicine. Your home will always be respected, secured, and left exactly as I found it.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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 Mount Sterling. 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 , 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 Mount Sterling 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 , 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 .

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
