About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have both a dog and a cat who mean the world to me. 🐶🐱 Over the years, I've cared for pets for neighbors, friends, and repeat clients through drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I'm comfortable administering oral medications when needed and always do my best to follow each pet's normal routine so they feel as happy and stress-free as possible. I currently have flexible availability for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. Once my fall semester begins on August 25 and I start my weekday nanny position on August 31, my availability will become more limited, but I'll still be accepting bookings that fit my schedule. I do my best to respond quickly to messages and keep my calendar up to date so you'll always know when I'm available. I know it's a big deal to trust someone with both your pet and your home, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, keep their environment clean and comfortable, and provide updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. During our meet and greet, I'll ask plenty of questions to learn your pet's routines, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible.
About: Hi! My name is Morgan, and I have a strong passion for caring for animals. I’m currently a veterinary assistant and have been working in the field for the past four years, which has given me hands-on experience with a wide range of pets and their needs. I’m also finishing my bachelor’s degree online and plan to apply to veterinary school in the near future. I take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to routines, administering medications, or just giving extra cuddles and attention, I treat every pet like my own. I have five dogs of my own, all different breeds, ages, and personalities and one cat. I'm currently in school doing online classes and have a pretty flexible schedule when working with your pet. I will be able to walk your dog and provide playtime. I would care for your pet as if he/she were my own. I would not do anything with your pet without clarifying it with you. I am more than happy to provide updates on your pet throughout the day, to ensure they are being properly cared for!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how attentive, patient, and dependable I am with every pet I care for. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m great at keeping routines consistent, encouraging positive behavior, and giving pets plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. I’m also very observant and quick to notice changes in behavior or mood so pets always receive the best care possible. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and stress-free! I currently works a job from 6pm to 430 am. So, if discussed, I can determine if I can fit a morning stop into my schedule but I’m definitely available before 3pm M-F. Sat/Sun 10am till TBD. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of attention so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I previously had a dog who sadly passed away after 13 years, which gave me a lot of experience and love for caring for animals through every stage of life. I currently have a poodle and a doodle who have had puppies together, and I also have two of their puppies, so I’m very familiar with caring for multiple dogs with different personalities and energy levels.

“We had asked Chase to walk our 2 dogs once a day for 2 days while we were traveling out of state. My Mom was watching our dogs while we were away and Chase was very professional and friendly when communicating regarding times and walks with her. Chase is always amazing to work with and the pups love him! Thank you Chase!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve spent years caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, reptiles, and other small animals.

I have experience working with puppies, senior pets, and animals that require extra patience and attention. I am also actively involved in service dog training, which has strengthened my understanding of positive reinforcement, consistency, and animal behavior. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize safety, comfort, exercise, and plenty of love while you’re away.

About: I’m more than just a sitter — I’m a lifelong pet lover who treats every furry friend like family. I grew up showing dogs in AKC competitions, which gave me a strong foundation in training, handling, and understanding dogs of all temperaments. I have hands-on experience with both large and small dogs at every energy level. At home, I care for two energetic Australian Shepherds and a lovable Golden Retriever, so I’m very comfortable with high-drive pups as well as calmer companions. I also have experience caring for puppies who need patience and structure, and seniors who need a gentler touch and extra attention. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or sticking to special routines (like medications, feedings, or training commands), I’m detail-oriented and committed to giving each pet the personalized care they deserve. I work from home with an extremely flexible schedule, so caring for pets fits seamlessly into my day. With two Aussies and a Golden Retriever of my own, my daily routine already includes walks, playtime, training, and lots of snuggles. I can easily add extra walks, potty breaks, or cuddle sessions to meet each pet’s unique needs. On a weekly basis, I make time for longer outings, enrichment activities, and keeping up with each pet’s routine, ensuring they feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet, whether in my home or theirs. At home, my dogs are well-trained and social, and I ensure all pets have supervised interactions, secure spaces, and plenty of enrichment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space the way I would want my own home treated — following routines exactly, from feeding and walks to medications and bedtime. Pets feel comfortable and safe, and owners can trust that their home and furry family members are in good hands.
“I am a very anxious dog parent. I felt so safe leaving my girl in Christine's care. Our meet and greet was thorough and it was obvious that she has really good dog energy. She did a wonderful job taking care of Liza, and I loved the very detailed Rover card and cute pictures. Liza got a long walk on the greenway and was so much calmer and happier when I got home from work than she normally is. I will absolutely be booking Christine again.”
About: Hi! My name is Amy. I live in a small 2 acre farm with my animal loving side-kick, Ainsley. We currently have 2 pigs and 6 chickens and a great pyrenees on our expanding farm. Growing up, I cared for various farm animals including dogs. I absolutely love working with animals of all kinds – big or small. I have fostered dogs while they find their forever home. I have experience with small and big dogs from a variety of breeds. Our tiny farm has multiple fence areas for your pup to run and play. We can work with your pets’ temperament to play fetch outside or cuddle on the couch if your dog needs love. I would love to know more about your pet. I would like to learn more about your pets breed and how they act around other animals and children. Please let me know if your pet has any medical issues, behavioral issues, or triggers. I would like to know if they do well in a fence or if they are an escape artist. I am happy to cater to your pet’s comfort level, if you allow them on furniture or would prefer them in a crate. Please let me know if they are spayed or neutered. I do require proof of an updated rabies shot. Look forward to setting up a meet and greet. Can’t wait to meet your pet. I currently work from home so the schedule is flexible and can be altered about your pets needs. We also have a farm and enjoy much of our time outside in the summer. I have fenced areas in the backyard for your pet to run and play. If for some reason the dogs do not get along in the fence area, I will either walk visiting dogs on a leash in the front yard or separate them in difference kennels.

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 Newport. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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.

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.
