“Brianna is a great dog walker!! She is very quick to respond to messages and took the lead organizating the meet and greet. She was available on pretty short notice, which was such a relief. Brianna was immediately comfortable with my 150lb dog, which means she is comfortable with any dog! She is a great dog walker and I will be using her regularly!”

About: I have nearly 2 years of experience as a kennel assistant at a Hayfield Animal Hospital caring for dogs, cats, and exotics of all sizes and personalities. I also was a part of the Edison Academy veterinary science class where we provided grooming services to clients. I’ve taken care of my own dog for 8 years and have pet sat for family and friends. I’m reliable, patient, and focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also helped train my dog as a puppy and have experience administering medications to pets at my work and will be getting experience as a veterinary assistant this summer. I currently work part-time as a kennel assistant, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life! I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to make time to stop by and care for your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own by making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owner is away. As a pre-vet student at Virginia Tech, my passion for animals runs deep. Just as I do with my own dog, in a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure pets have a clean, stress-free environment and would love to keep owners updated with messages and photos!
“Kyle is amazing! Great communication, and excellent customer service to us as owners but also Twinkie and Star (our corgis) were so happy and tired after their walk. Nothing like having peace of mind when out of town to have someone loving and reliable to care for our fur babies, very thankful to have found him. Don’t hesitate- reach out today for your pets needs, you won’t regret it.”
About: Hello! I'm a devoted dog lover who treats every pup like they're my own. There's nothing I enjoy more than showering dogs with affection and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I know how important your furry family member is to you, so I'm committed to following your routines and instructions to a tee. Whether your dog thrives on structure or just needs some extra cuddles, I'll make sure they feel completely comfortable and at ease with me. And because I know you'll miss them, I'm happy to send plenty of photos and updates throughout the day so you can see just how much fun they're having! As someone who loves the outdoors and exercise, I'm always ready for long walks or backyard playtime. I genuinely believe every dog deserves daily exercise and enrichment, and I have the energy and enthusiasm to keep up with even the most playful pups. I can't wait to meet your four-legged friend and give them all the care and attention they deserve! I work a flexible hybrid schedule, which makes me ideal for pet parents needing drop-in walks, home visits, or house sitting. I know that boarding facilities aren't right for every pet, so I'm happy to care for yours in the comfort of their own home. With experience handling reactive and special-needs pets, I understand when staying in a familiar environment is the best choice. While you're away, I'll keep your pet's routine consistent and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I keep my calendar updated to reflect my in-office days. I'm typically available on weekends and weekday daytime hours. If you're facing a long workday, a busy weekend, or are concerned about leaving your pet alone for extended periods, I'm happy to help with check-ins and care as needed. I work from home most of the time, which means I have wonderful flexibility to spend quality time with your pup! I'm especially available for late morning and midday visits, so your dog will never have to wait too long between potty breaks, meals, or playtime. I am usually in the office on Wednesdays but I aim to keep my calendar as updated as possible. Safety is always my top priority. I'm naturally cautious and attentive, always thinking ahead to prevent any potential issues before they happen. I've received training in dog body language, so I can usually quickly pick up on when a pup needs space, comfort, or extra playtime. My own reactive, special needs dog has been an incredible teacher. I've learned to be especially mindful during walks and around other people or dogs. I also know that dogs pick up on our energy, so I aim to stay calm and composed in every situation to help your pup feel secure and relaxed.
“Thanks for walking Riley and Archie, Davis! They had a great time and I was so glad I could find someone to help out with them on short notice. We will definitely reach out again 😊”
“She always arrives on time, follows all our instructions carefully, and most importantly, makes our dog Coco so happy. We trust her completely with Coco’s walks, and it gives us peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m a recent Physician Assistant graduate from EVMS with over 10 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant.

I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, including those that may be anxious or require extra care. My medical background also allows me to recognize early signs of illness or distress, providing added peace of mind while you’re away. I have experience with basic grooming such as bathing and nail trims, as well as safely handling pets when needed. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are. I provide reliable, attentive care and will keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit. I offer flexible scheduling, including evenings, weekends, and last-minute bookings I’m currently preparing to start my career as a PA, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care.

“Holly is FANTASTIC! She always keeps you informed, and Kylo was so happy with the wonderful walks she gave him. She was always on time and I truly recommend her 100%!”
“Dana is amazing with my two dogs who can be a handful to walk together. I also have an incredibly selective dog who warmed up to Dana right away, which is a bigger relief than I can express in words.”
“Sarah was amazing as a dog walker for my pups! She was very responsive, came exactly on time for the walk, and was clearly so sweet and loving with both of my dogs! One of my pups is quite shy and Sarah spent extra time with her to get her comfortable before the walk which was above and beyond amazing. Will absolutely book with her again in the future!”
“I wish I could leave an extra star! Savonna truly cares about Leo and spends intentional time with him in addition to his walks. Savonna is respectful of schedules and spaces, and communicates effectively. Leo adores Savonna and I hope we can continue this partnership for a long time!”

North Springfield dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first experience using Rover, and I couldn’t be happier. Cassie was amazing, and I sincerely hope she is always available to walk/board my Labrador when I need her. From our first meeting I could tell she genuinely loves dogs. She is trustworthy, reliable, provides timely communication and was a joy to work with. Rover is very lucky to have her on their team.
I booked Julia for reoccurring walks with my dog, a senior husky. She was very patient with my pup and made sure she was well taken care. Julia listened to all my notes and concerns with my dog and made me feel comfortable with entrusting her to take care of her. I definitely recommend Julia to look after your dog too!
We’ve had a wonderful experience having Anna as our dog walker. She has been consistently dependable, always showing up as scheduled and giving us peace of mind that our pup is getting his regular walks while were at work. . She’s kind, considerate, and clearly cares about our dog’s well-being. We especially appreciate her communication — she keeps us updated on how each walk goes and lets us know if anything seems off or different. It’s reassuring to know our dog is in attentive, responsible hands. We’re very grateful for her help and the reliability she’s provided.
Frank is incredibly warm, patient, and friendly! He is reliable and very punctual, and it's a joy to work with him. From the moment he met our dog I could tell that he is a caring young man who really loves animals. Our dog looks forward to her walks with him every day. He meticulously sends updates and photos from each walk. We are so happy to have found him and highly recommend his services to anyone considering him!
Sam was amazing! Weather conditions were tough annd we have 14 year old dog. Sam was super communicative and paid attention to what our doggo needed extra snuggles, some play time, and walks at his pace. Thank you so much Sam for taking the best care of our doggo! So grateful to have found you!
Monique was our saving grace once again! She is so accommodating and willing to help, even on short notice-- we are incredibly grateful for her! She also does very well with high energy dogs and strong dogs. We have only met Monique once before, and it was a weeks ago at a different location. Julep immediately recognized her before she even made it to the door, and my typically anxious pup was SO excited to see her. She clearly creates a bond with the dogs she meets. That's equally important and impressive. Julep is a rescue and, sadly, like so many sweet dogs, she had a hard life before she was rescued. Because of that, she very rarely warms up to new people quickly. We LOVED how happy Julep was to see Monique again! As soon as I handed Monique the leash, she took off like lightning for her walk without the slightest hesitation like they were old friends. I highly recommend Monique!
