About: I have had a dog or cat, male & female, most of my life in both urban, suburban, and rural settings. Comfortable with all breeds and needs. I’m not afraid of the dirty work and am not lazy. I will accomodate your needs and follow your instructions verbatim. I will treat your pet as my own. I have a flexible schedule that varies from week to week but I know well in advance what that will be and can control it with adequate notice. I’m gainfully employed already, but recent life changes have left me with additional free time and a need for supplemental income. I truly love animals (just check my Instagram feed...) and can handle anything. I will ensure your furbaby is treated with the same care/love that you would provide he or she.
About: I have raised puppies and kittens, along with taking care of older pets. I am a responsible, trustworthy, caring adult who loves animals. I will take excellent care of your pet and make sure they are happy until you return home. I retired from teaching and now want to take care of others’ pets. My schedule is very flexible, including days and weekends. I am happy to tailor my pet sitting to whatever your pet needs. I am very comfortable around dogs & cats because I have owned pets my whole life. I am patient, caring & conscientious & will love your dog like my own. I will also make sure they get plenty of exercise, play time, & potty breaks.

About: I’m the founder of a dog rescue and a lifelong dog lover with extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. My own home is very dog-centered, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust with your pet. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, multi-dog households, feeding routines, crate routines, exercise, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I’ve also raised puppies from birth, so I’m very comfortable with the extra patience and supervision younger dogs need. I treat every dog in my care like I would want my own dogs treated; with kindness, consistency, safety, and lots of love. Pet care is already a major part of my everyday routine. I manage a multi-dog household and run 614 Boston Terrier Rescue, so feeding, exercise, playtime, supervision, and structured routines are part of my normal day. I currently have a flexible schedule and can accommodate daytime visits, walks, drop-ins, and other care depending on your pet’s needs. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I’m experienced with puppies, adult dogs, multi-dog households, crate routines, feeding schedules, and dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and never assume every dog should be handled the same way. I focus on secure supervision, safe introductions when appropriate, clean spaces, consistent routines, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for.
About: As a dog mom of three very different pups—a goofy cuddle bug, a squirrel-chasing chatterbox, and a calm, loyal companion—I truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt my care to each dog’s unique energy level, quirks, and routine. I have experience with senior dogs, stubborn breeds, and high-energy pups, and I’m especially great with food-motivated dogs (because let’s be honest—treats are love!). Whether your pup needs a playmate, a cuddle buddy, or a calm presence, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with medication administration, basic training reinforcement, and helping dogs feel comfortable in new environments. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be cared for like family. Pet care is a natural fit in my life because I’m already surrounded by dogs and love spending time with them! I work full time, but I’m looking to do pet care part time—and I have flexibility in my current schedule that allows me to make arrangements as needed. Whether it’s early morning walks, evening drop-ins, or weekend stays, I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a routine that works for everyone. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I’m excited to welcome more furry friends into my weekly routine! I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes to ensure each pet stays comfortable in their own environment and to avoid any stress from introducing them to my three resident dogs. I’m respectful of routines and will follow all care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or cuddle time. I make it a priority to keep your pet safe, happy, and loved while you're away, and I always provide updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: Hi, I’m Dustin! I bring 33 years of hands-on pet care experience and a lifelong love for animals of all shapes and sizes. I currently share my home with a sweet dog, two cuddly cats, and two wonderfully curious rats — so I’m no stranger to different personalities, needs, and routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, goofy, or needs a little extra patience, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and understood. I treat every animal like one of my own, and I’m committed to giving you peace of mind while you’re away. From belly rubs and playtime to calm companionship and reliable care, your pets will be in gentle, experienced hands. Looking forward to meeting your furry (or whiskered!) family! I work full-time, but I still make plenty of room in my schedule for quality pet care. I’m available early mornings, late afternoons, evenings, and nights, as well as weekends, for walks, drop-ins, and boarding. I make sure each pet gets reliable attention, consistent routines, and lots of love — even with a busy workweek. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can relax, play, and follow their usual routines. I provide plenty of attention, supervised time, and cozy spots for resting. For drop-ins and walks, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own space — feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up, giving medication if needed, and spending quality time so they feel secure. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them, I always treat every pet with the same care and kindness I give my own.
“Kyla has been wonderful to work with! Our energetic pup has lots of rules after training and Kyla was very open to learning our expectations for him. She already has been perpetuating his training. She has our dog walking right next to her like he does with us. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up on a farm and I've trained/cared for many different kinds of animals for over 20 years. I love animals and am excited to meet your fur baby! I own and operate my own business out of my house. My boss is me and I set my own schedule! So last minute changes are a-okay! I'm happy to exercise and feed and care for your sweet fur babies! I've cared for lots of different dogs and cats and am confident I can take care of yours!

About: I have been pet sitting for friends and coworkers for 15 years. I have experience with multiple breeds (cats and dogs) and I am available for drop-in visits and walks. I can occasionally help with overnights as well. I grew up with animals and am a huge animal lover. I would love to meet you and your pets to see if it's a good match. I typically schedule meet and greets before confirming a booking to ensure it is a good fit for both us and your pets. Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you! I work remotely full-time, so I am flexible on location during the day. I have previously worked from clients’ homes throughout the day to spend extra time with pets during drop-in visits. I care for pets in clients’ home. I love animals and treat them as my own. I am happy to discuss any care needs ahead of time to make sure you are comfortable.
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, and other animals since I was about 15 years old. I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I also have experience working as a beginner-level dog groomer, which gave me even more hands-on experience with dogs and their individual needs. I eventually left grooming to pursue my career as a CNA, but my love for animals has never gone away. I’m patient, responsible, and caring, and I would love the opportunity to treat your pets like they’re my own! My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care\. I understand that every owner has different schedules and needs, and I’m willing to work around those schedules whenever possible\. My flexibility makes me a great fit because I can provide consistent, dependable care without rushing or leaving pets alone for long periods of time\. I’m happy to give each animal the attention, love, exercise, and care they deserve while their owners are away\. want every pet and pet owner to feel comfortable and confident when choosing me for their pet’s care. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, so I treat every animal with patience, attention, and the same love and care I would want for my own.

Leah stepped in to walk my dog while our regular walker was on vacation and she’s awesome! Leah was very communicative, took lots of pictures and was consistent with her timing every day. Our pup LOVED her, and we did too! We will 100% be repeat customers with her and would recommend her to others as well :)

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 New Albany. 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.

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.
