About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I’ve volunteered at the ASPCA, to walking my neighbors dogs, to taking in my sisters dog in when she moved away, sadly she passed away last year and I’ve had a hole in my heart ever since. So I figured joining Rover would be a great way to start filling that void I have! I have a lot of extra time on my hands! I just moved to Georgia a few months back! I’m in school online but it still leaves alot of free time for me so why not have someone’s fur baby around to keep me company! I love to continue the schedule pawrents have for their animals already or I can start a good schedule for them to start following if you would like! And we will definitely go on walks every time they come! I do have a fenced in back yard so your fur baby will have a lots of room to play and run around! And feel free to bring their beds or cages and toys if needed! I know having something comfortable or familiar around is great for making them feel at home!
“She is amazing. It was a very last minute dog walk and she was more then willing to help out. My dog was able to pee and poo and let out some energy. She was understanding of some confusing things and helped out with supplying some fresh water to my dog. I am definitely rebooking her again!”

“Retia is an amazing person to work with! She has great communication, works so well with all dogs, and has an incredible training background. We know our pup is safe and happy with her each day for her walks and that gives us such peace of mind.”

He has also been extremely flexible and willing to help out whenever we ask. We are very grateful for all his help in taking care of our precious pooch.”

“This guy is phenomenal and I can't recommend him enough. A gentleman and a scholar. Justin has done an amazing job with my dad's dog. Dad is aging and recently injured his back, so Buddy hasn't gotten the training or exercise he needs. Within 3 walks, Buddy, who is petrified of everything, had warmed up to him. Justin went the extra mile, teaching Buddy how to leash walk properly and starting him on commands. The exercise for buddy has given my dad a chance to start actually resting his back and recover. Justin has been patient with Dad and incredibly accommodating with our situation of me being far away while doing this and helping us meet Buddy's goals. I'll definitely book his services again. He's given me great feedback on Buddy's progress, seems to genuinely care about him and empathize with us, and has even given me reassurance while I'm frantically try to care for my dad from a distance. Just a side note that we are trying to get dad into an assisted living community and prepare Buddy to go with him because my dad is so lonely otherwise. (It's good for Buddy too, who adores dad and will mellow out as he matures.) Justin's work has given me the hope that we can reach that goal.”

Eden has walked my dog several times, and I couldn’t be happier with the care provided. Eden is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always appreciate the updates and photos from the walks, which give me peace of mind knowing my dog is happy and well cared for. Eden is also very flexible and accommodating with scheduling, making the entire experience easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Eden to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog walker.

Jala is an awesome dog walker for my black lab mix Sadie! She’s very communicative and really gave me peace of mind that she will treat Sadie with love and kindness. Sadie is so excited to see Jala every week and she seems to be tired out after :)) I highly recommend if you need someone to take care of your pup!

Michael was fantastic with our dogs and really helped us out! We planned to take a sunset cruise and needed someone to watch the dogs for a couple hours. Michael met us at the dock and walked the dogs around the area while we cruised. We would definitely use him again if we visit Muskegon again.

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 Muskegon Heights. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Muskegon Heights.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Muskegon Heights. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
