“Nicole was amazing with my dog snowy. She always comes on time, communicates with me about snow’s walk and feeding and is super professional and helpful. She accepted a late notice booking which was a big help when I’m not home to walk my dog myself!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Stefanie! She has been a true life-saver, especially after we had our baby and needed extra help. Knowing we could count on her to take care of our dog, Astro, gave us such peace of mind during a busy and exhausting time. Astro absolutely loves his walks with her, and it’s clear Stefanie treats him like her own. She’s always on time, incredibly professional, and so caring. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with Astro. Stefanie truly goes above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Michelle did so great with Zephyr! We were so worried about having to leave him alone all day for the first time. He's only 8 months old, so we really needed to break up his alone time. I was so nervous, but Michelle made everything so much better! Zephyr had the best time with her and we are definitely going to have her back!”

About: I have several years of experience caring for both pets and children. While working as a nanny for multiple families, I was also responsible for their dogs, making sure they were well-fed, exercised, and happy. This gave me hands-on experience with daily walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. At home, I am a proud cat owner, so I also understand the unique needs of cats and how to provide them with the right care and attention. I am patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s walking a dog, keeping a pet company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. have a very flexible schedule. Sunday Mondays and Tuesdays I am super available. Most mornings before 10 am I’m free and I sometimes work from home. My schedule is adjustable, I can often adapt to different needs during the week. The care I provide always depends on each pet parent’s instructions, since every animal has unique needs and routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them regular walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. Safety is always my first priority whether that means keeping doors secured, watching carefully on walks, or following special feeding instructions. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, so pet parents can feel fully at ease while they are away.
About: Growing up with a dog taught me how to care for them naturally, and now my fiancé and I are putting our love for dogs into raising our own puppy, a 7-month-old Cockapoo named Kenai! What sets me apart is that I provide the same meticulous, loving routine at home that I would bring to your pet. From daily care to managing his vaccines and vet visits, I know what it takes to keep a dog healthy, safe, and happy. Your pup will get my undivided attention, supervision, and plenty of love! Best Regards, Daniel Pet care is seamlessly woven into my everyday life. As a business owner, I have wonderfully flexible availability throughout the week and also weekends to ensure your dog receives constant attention. I maintain a safe, secure environment by actively supervising pets at all times, keeping hazards away, and following your exact routine. When I am watching your pet, I am as concerned for their safety as I would be for my own dog.
About: I work from home, so I’m often available throughout the day! I’ve grown up with dogs, including a black Lab who was part of my family for many years until we sadly had to say goodbye. I currently have a rescued black Lab, Toddy, from Kentucky, who I’ve had for four years now. He is my bestest friend and is pretty much attached to my hip! We also sent him to a training camp, so I have experience with e-collars if training needs to be reinforced on walks. I also foster puppies with Fetch Rescue, which has given me experience handling dogs with a variety of temperaments, personalities, and needs. Overall, I’m just a major dog lover and would love to help anyone in a pinch who needs a dog walker! I currently work from home so I often am available throughout the day! Mornings between 8:30-10am are fairly difficult but can sometimes make work as my meetings move around. I do not have a fence at my apartment but always make sure her dogs are a leashed before opening the door. Happy to take care of Dogs at someone else’s home In which I would respect like it is mine as I would want the same! I keep a camera in my house so totally respect if someone else would to the same!
“Natasha is so patient and kind, was very thorough and asked lots of questions, did an amazing job! Our dog can be nervous with strangers and she made him feel at ease :)”
About: I have always been an avid animal lover, especially a dog lover, and I have always owned dogs. I started dogsitting after I graduated from college to make some money, and I immediately fell in love with it. Being able to provide a loving environment while you're away is very important for the animals, and I strive to be the best at it. My skills include dog sitting, walking, playing, and cuddling. I will also take great care of your home and treat it with respect. I also think it is important to keep the client informed of what is going on so I do like to check in. I have experience in both dogsitting and house sitting and this would let me showcase that. I currently own a Cat and turtle and feed them daily. I also clean the litter box every two days. I also help clean the turtle tank. I would follow the walking schedule for each dog and also adhere to the feeding guidelines. For a cat I would also follow the feeding guidelines and cleaning.

About: Hi, I'm Denise and have worked in doggie daycare and pet sitting, including fostering for many years. My full time job pays my mortgage but caring for animals brings me joy. I am professional, polite, old school and give personalized attention to your pooch. I'm available super early weekday mornings, evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday. I currently work full time near home so I can easily get home for potty breaks. Pets will never be alone for more than 4 hours. I always am sure they are leashed before the door is open. While I do not have a fenced in yard, I'm an avid walker so your pets will surely get the steps in. I work a mile from home so mid day potty breaks are easy. I'm a big walker so pups get their exercise and lots of play time at home. I always keep the pups in my care away from other dogs and people for safety. I do not have a fenced in yard but have enough property for a late night quick pee and poop.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Northfield
I couldn’t recommend Shayla enough! My elderly dog needed extra care and attention. Shayla was very understanding and had great knowledge for meeting Lucy’s needs. Lucy came back to me with her tail wagging and very happy. I will look forward to using Shayla again next time I need her!
Elizabeth has been absolutely wonderful walking Liquorice! She is extremely professional, punctual, and reliable, and took fantastic care of her every single day. Liquorice always looked forward to her visits, and having someone so trustworthy gave me complete peace of mind while away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier pet care!
I was a little nervous using a dog walker for the first time, but she made the whole experience so easy. She was great with Summer, communicated really well, and sent me updates, which I really appreciated. It was nice knowing Summer was being taken care of. I’m definitely happy with the experience and would use her again!
Victoria is absolutely AMAZING! I feel so lucky to have found her. Gus is an older guy and means the absolute world to me, so I’m incredibly particular about who I trust with him. Victoria is kind, reliable, communicative, and so genuinely caring with him. I have complete peace of mind knowing Gus is in such wonderful hands. He absolutely adores her — and so do I! Could not recommend Victoria more highly! ❤️🐾
I am so grateful to Stefanie for taking care of my 6-month old puppy. Between walks, cuddles, playing in the grass, he received the best care. She also went above and beyond to keep an eye on my cat and make fast friends with her. Beautiful messages and photos kept my mind at ease, while giving a glimpse into how happy and content my kiddos are with her. I can't say enough good things about Stefanie -- I recommend her highly and am so glad we found her!
Josh is everything you want in a dog walker. He is 100% reliable and he communicates often and promptly. And of course he loves pets and he will make sure that your pet is extremely well cared for. If you have any special instructions Josh will adhere to them perfectly. So if you hire Josh you will know that your pet is in excellent hands and you can have total peace of mind.

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

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.
