“Emylee is fantastic! She’s looked after my pup on recurring walks for the last year and has always been great with him, even as a crazy puppy. She always provides great updates and it’s obvious my pup loves her. Highly recommended!”


“Laura was very wonderful to work with! Easy to communicate with, flexible, always prompt and great with my girl Lola!!! Book with her please 🫶🏽”


“Erica was amazing with my dog Roscoe! I loved her comments and pictures from the walks. She was reliable and considerate and I highly recommend her.”


“Kirsten is wonderful, she came to do a meet and greet and it was clear the dogs both liked her (and one of my dogs is picky). She walked and played with them, and sent lots of great pictures. Will be using her regularly.”



“Alex is great. We have had a few dog walkers previously and she is the best! She gives us great updates on our furbaby, lots of pictures and never cuts the walks short. We have a Chihuahua mix that doesn't always take to new people well to the point that he wouldn't even walk with some of our previous dog walkers. Not a problem with Alex.”



“Ileah is great with our dogs, we have 2 Australian shepherds that are high energy, they respond well to her and she keeps good control over them. She is punctual, calm, responds quickly and is professional.”


“My Bear loves Holly! She has always arrived on time and always sends pictures of their walks. I needed her once last minute and she accepted my request. Holly truly is the best and I appreciate her more than she knows!”


“Hope has been great with my dog Remi— super reliable!”


About: I have had dogs, cats, and rabbits in my adult life and had dogs growing up. I just lost my 12 year old senior dog, sweet Mayble, a week ago. Mayble required extensive medical attention as she had kidney disease, a herniated disc that made it difficult to walk, arthritis, and allergies. She required daily medication for her ailments, She also needed frequent potty breaks, extra water, and extra care going up and down stairs and up onto the couch. I had to be in-tune with her if her little body was getting tired from a walk, I also currently have rabbits who require litter cleanings, hay, pellets, lettuce, and socialization, I’m currently in the process of bonding my 2 rabbits which requires a lot of time and patience. In a personal note, I’m a 37 year old single female who works in the education system. I am mature, capable, and responsible and would take care of your precious fur babies as if they were my own. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! Currently I’m on Summer vacation until the beginning of August so, unless I’m going somewhere to camp overnight, My schedule is very open right now! I can care for young animals all the way up to senior animals. I am available for drop-ins, walking, or even house sitting. Let me know what you need! 😊

“Great communication! Sent updates and photos. Griff is looking forward to his next walk with Brandon.”


“So glad that Tessa could take Alfred in a midday walk while I worked. Gave me peace of mind knowing he was taken care of and wouldn’t have to wait for me if I couldn’t get away from work for a lunch time walk. Thank you so much!!!”

About: Hi there my name is Katie! I’ve been around animals all my life! Dogs, cats, lizards birds, snakes…you name it! I’m very experienced with animals and always get a good response when meeting new pets! They can always tell I’m animal person! I have my own puppets who I take to the dog park everyday! We go on 4 walks a day as well so if I’m taking care of your pooch they will join us at the park and on walks! As for cats, birds ect they will be mostly in the house while sitting and will be fed watered and safe till you come by to pick them up! By the way I don’t do cancellations. If you can’t keep a meet and greet please don’t waste yours or my time. I don’t have an endless supply of gas money. I’ve wasted a lot of my personal funds on gas to meet and greet only to be canceled on. Respect my time and money please. If you book me keep the booking. As far and meet and greet before the official work day starts I do not reschedule those either. This is my income. This is my job. Please respect that. I love the outdoors! Anything related to hiking I love. When I go on a walk or to the park with my own dog I would definitely be including any of the dogs I am babysitting. My dog always gets lots of cuddles and love and attention so your animal would get the same. We do not use anger to tell our animals that they did something wrong instead they get put in the kennel and time out. I won’t be parenting anyone’s animals though unless I am hired for dog training which is another service all on it own.

“I want to give Callen 1 star just because I don’t want to share her! She is so kind and loved on my dogs as if they were hers. Finding her was a huge relief and after meeting with her ahead of the first walk, I was confident that my dogs were in great hands!”


“Eric was able to walk Tugboat on short notice. So helpful and kind. I appreciated the help. Eric also was able to get Tugboat to not be interested in pulling. Can't thank Eric enough. Tugboat was always excited to see Eric and knew the time was coming. Can't recommend Eric enough.”


About: Aside from being raised with cats and dogs and everything in between I have had the great opportunity of working as a pack leader at a doggy day care- a job that I thoroughly enjoyed and did well in. I was able to learn skills ranging from enriching a dogs life through play time, correcting and rewarding behavior, and keeping a safe environment that was shared with multiple dogs. I currently have a lot of free time with my current job and have been wanting to fill this time with something that I enjoy. I am most available in the early mornings and later evenings and completely free Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Currently I only have a cat who is roughly 2 1/2 years old. My home is filled with cat towers and couple cat trees and hideaways to make sure she lives an interesting life. I give her lots of play time and make sure she is well taken care of and loved always! I would do the same for any dog and cat left in my care.

About: I am a 41yo Born & Raised Florida Boy. Brought up on a farm with everything from chickens, cows, Horses, pigs, sheep to Chow chews, English Mastiffs & Pugs. I genuinely love all animals but Dogs in general steal my heart so fast. I currently do not work so I am available 24 x 7 at this time. Plenty of time to offer love & care to your fur babies. I am also available to stay or visit your place if you feel more secure that way. I'm looking for a few ongoing visits as to not only build a relationship with the fur babies but as to make the stays as stress free as possible for both human & pet. I have a 1 bed flat. Plenty of dog parks and places to go for a walk. I do not have a fenced in yard but the dog parks and outside is where we like to he as a family.

“Sharika is great with my 5-month old Samoyed puppy who can be very disobedient and stubborn at times. She is incredibly accommodating in terms of walk times, and is flexible which I sincerely appreciate. Would recommend Sharika 100%!”


About: I've been watching my own personal pets as well as other peoples since I was a young child. I trained my dog, a half lab/half Weimeraner to retrieve at a pretty high level. I had a three legged cat as well. I've been living with dogs my entire life and cats for the last eight years I work remotely and would prefer to house sit in a place where I can also do my work. Your pet would have someone around the majority of the time and I can take care of other business. According to the conditions and the pets stated needs. I love walking dogs and retrieving with them and it is always nice giving cats catnip if they like catnip.

“Lauren has been fantastic! Like many pup owners, my dog is like a child to me. Lauren has great communication skills (a must) and goes that extra mile each visit. So glad we found her to help brighten Roxie's day!”

Joshua S.
“Watching Joshua interact with my mother's elderly pug and my baby kitten was truly a joy to behold. His ability to connect with animals on a emotional and physical and psychological level is anything short of amazing. Joshua has a cheery and adoring disposition along with a passionate soul that dogs and cats and animals of all kind can really connect with. His experience in the medical field has been proven to showcase his abilities and capabilities when it comes to caring for animals and their needs. He is a devoted and caring owner when it comes to his own pug Deku, these two share a bond that is unmatched by any pairing of human and animal kind I have ever seen in my life. On many occasions I have witnessed Joshua put Deku's needs and other animals needs before his own. I have the utmost respect for Joshua and his loving and caring demeanor and passion for animals. I highly recommend him for anybody who wants someone to be focused on their furry companion. Thank you. Jordan Cote”

“Sharika is great with my 5-month old Samoyed puppy who can be very disobedient and stubborn at times. She is incredibly accommodating in terms of walk times, and is flexible which I sincerely appreciate. Would recommend Sharika 100%!”


William M.
“William M. is a wonderful pet sitter. He took care of my two rat terriers and later became the exclusive pet sitter for our Boykin spaniel. I always knew I could count on William to show up and feed my dog, take him out, and spend time playing with him while I was away. It was clear that my dog enjoyed spending time with William and was always eager to see him coming over as William was also a friend of the family. William is both gentle and firm and knows how to handle dogs, and they respond well to him. I recommend William with 100% confidence.”


Lauren E.
“Lauren has been fantastic! Like many pup owners, my dog is like a child to me. Lauren has great communication skills (a must) and goes that extra mile each visit. So glad we found her to help brighten Roxie's day!”

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.
Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in North Star.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals.
