“Vinnie is extremely communicative, response to emails/texts, and SO friendly. Our dog absolutely loves him and she is so happy to see him each morning. Vinnie is very professional and reliable and we can always count on him to be there for the scheduled days’ walk right on time and with a smile on his face. He also provides photos of the walk adventures which gives us great peace of mind. Highly recommend Vinnie!”
“Carole was great! Arrived on time, my dog was excited to see her and they had a good wander around the neighborhood. She took time with him during the meet and greet to get to know him as he can be anxious. All went well. Plan to book reoccurring walks with Carole!”
“Manasa is amazing with our pups. From weekly walks to overnight care, she continually sees they are well cared for and happy. We completely trust her and she’s amazing with both small and larger dogs ( we have both!)”
“Edward was wonderful with my dog. He gave her daily walks for a week while I was in town for work. He was one of few dog sitters who actually responded to a request from outside of their area, but we really lucked out. Edward was prompt with updates and I felt comfortable leaving my dog in his care. I’m so relieved to know when I have to travel to VA for work, I can bring my dog with me and she’ll be in good hands.”
“Emily has been great with my bull dog mix Reina! She can be stubborn on walks but Emily has been very patient with her and by the photos Reina looks super happy! Emily has also been very flexible with scheduling, allowing me to add on walks during the week when I’m busy at work. I would definitely recommend if you need a dog walker in the area!”
About: I have over 10 years experience in both dogs and cats. I have raised two of our family dogs and I own two cats. I have so many tips and tricks and I would love to send you all the photos of your babies! Currently free all time- all days. I am doing this full time and I would love to help you whenever and however often you need! I do have two cats so unfortunately I can not bring your dog into my home. I am willing to stay at your place for however long and I will send daily photos of your pets!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have been walking friends and family dogs since I was 10, this has been a part time job for me for 5 years now. I’ve experienced anything from small to large dogs, dogs that have experienced trauma and are scared of others, and giving pets medication. I am available to petsit anytime before 5pm. From Saturday to Thursday since I work part-time right now. Since it is the summer I’m free all day before 5pm! Through my years of pet sitting for friends, family, and acquaintances, it has been combined with tasks such as bringing in the mail, feeding pets that require less care like fish, and letting cleaners into the house as needed.
“Leslie was amazing! She was able to walk our pup Hank in a last minutes time crunch. Sent pics and had great communication throughout the service. We will definitely work with Leslie again!”
“Skylar was amazing with our dog. They went on several walks and had a great time. He clearly loves animals, is responsive, and I would have him watch our doggo again in a heartbeat!”
About: I have hands-on experience with a decent variety of animals throughout the past 10 years. I had my own dog, Ginger, for about six years. This taught me responsibility at a young age and helped foster a hardworking mind. I voluntarily walk and dog sit for my close relatives and family friends, giving me exposure to different dog breeds’ personalities and routines. I owned fish for 3 years. I’ve also helped take care of cats for multiple days whenever my friend is away on vacation. I currently own a guinea pig named Elvis! i feed him, cuddle with him and spend quality time with him every day! I love animals and am excited to take care of them. I love going long walks and jogs and am excited to have a buddy to take with me!! My hours would stay quite consistent as long as I get a 2 days prior notice. My hours for pet sitting can range from 11 am to 6pm on the weekdays. On weekends however, my hours will range all day so feel free for flexibility on weekends! Whether or not im in my home or my client’s home, I make sure the environment is clean, and safe from anything that could harm the pet. I follow any special instructions provided by the owner, like feeding schedules, medication, or favorite routines. I prefer to take my time to build trust with each pet by being gentle, patient, and giving them the space they need to feel at ease
“Nikky did an outstanding job walking my two pets. She's patient, especially with one of my dogs who suffers from anxiety during walks. Looking forward to booking with her again.”
“We really appreciated that Raychelle made the effort to come visit Piglet even before his walk. She was really quick to reply, great at communicating and our dog seemed really happy! Would definitely recommend :)”
About: Truthfully, something like Rover is new to me. i have always had pets of my own and have cared for neighbors pets in the past. This will be the first time I am doing this as a line of work. I love all animals and have owned both cats and dogs. I have experience with animals small and large and of varying ages. My one true goal is to provide a service that gives people security and comfort knowing their pet is being cared and loved for as if they are a member of my own family in their absence. I mostly work contract work so my schedule is very flexible and I will mainly be basing my personal schedule around the scheduling needs of my clients first. I will always be engaged with making sure your pet is receiving the type of care you as the owner feel they specifically need. I love playing with animals, giving them their favorite food/treats or simply just hanging around with them and passing the time. Any medications needed for specific times will be given.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 6 when I had my first dog. I started pet sitting at an early age for neighbors. Have experience in training and caring for puppies as I have raised some of my own as well have dealt with older pets that require medications, and have special needs. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their fur babies. I work from home during the week and have a very flexible schedule. I am available for walks and visits any time of the week, and I am available for overnight pet sitting Wednesday night through Sunday mornings. I have a flexible schedule and can keep your pet company at your home. Upon your requests I am happy to provide walks, backyard playtime, basic command practice, indoor play, and pet sitting in the comfort of your home where your pet is most at peace.
“Libby was amazing! My dog had a recent unexpected injury after I had already booked with Libby, and she was so amazing giving him his medication and taking him on an easy walk. She made my feel so much better about having to leave him! And was great about taking pictures and tracking the whole walk. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Kristen is the best! Coco enjoyed her walk with Kristen. She enjoyed her time with Kristen so much that she didn’t wanted Kristen to leave. Will definitely book her again.”
About: I have experience caring for adult/senior cats and dogs, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes and picking up poop, and giving medications. I love to go dogs on long walks if they are able. I am available to take care of your pet daily between 6 am and 2 pm. I am also available Saturday through Tuesday evenings to care for your pet. I believe pets, their owners, and the homes deserve respect. I am happy to feed, clean up after, and play with dogs and cats in the home, as well as give medications. I would also love to take your dog on a walk through your neighborhood, while being responsible for locking doors to ensure safety while we're away.
About: I have always had dogs, in all shapes and sizes from Chihuahua to my beloved Great Danes. I have even been fortunate enough to have Great Dane puppies at one time! I have potty trained many dogs, my current one uses a doorbell to let me know when he needs to go out! I am currently not working outside of the home, so I am available when needed! If you are looking for someone with a flexible schedule, I am your gal! I have a fully fenced yard. I currently have a 1 year old Great Dane mix and two indoor cats. The cats have been raised with dogs, and they really just mind their own business!

“Danny has been walking my dog the last few months. The first time he met my Max I could tell Danny loves animals. He sat down on the floor and Max was all over him. Max can be enthusiastic on walks but Danny was able to control him with no problems. Danny always lets me know if there are any situations that happened during the walk. He tells me if there were dogs they encountered or other animals and how Max reacted. He has even sent me a picture. I appreciate Danny's professionalism. I trust the care he gives my dog.”

Not only does he do the basic maintenance of scooping the litter, he also spends extra time playing with them. Our dog usually travels with us, but I would trust Brock to care for her as well. I highly recommend Brock. His patience, reliability and calm demeanor make him a perfect match for our animals.”

Oak Grove dog parents share their Rover experiences
Deeksha is awesome! She has been very responsive and adaptable. Our dog, Lincoln, loves going on walks with her, and I’m so appreciative that he gets that time outside when we can’t be there! I’ll absolutely continue to use Deeksha for our puppy’s care, and would recommend her highly!
Sophie has been absolutely amazing with my dog! My pup is pretty anxious around new people, but Sophie was so patient and gentle, and it’s clear she really understands animals. Thanks to her calm and consistent approach, my dog quickly warmed up to her and now gets so excited for their walks. Sophie is always on time, super reliable, and clearly loves both dogs and cats. I feel so lucky to have found her—highly recommend to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring sitter!
Christine was fantastic walking my puppy Lincoln! She was on time and attentive, giving him a nice long walk while being mindful of the heat. She used commands that we have used for training and made sure he was set with water afterwards. She is very communicative and has great questions - I would absolutely recommend and will be using her again!
jihyun was amazing! she showed up right on time and stayed in touch before and during the entire walk. even though it was raining, she made sure my dog got the full hour outside. super respectful, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. will definitely book again. highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring walker!
There is not enough that I can say about Annika! She is so responsive and so wonderful with Carter. He is 13 years old and every time I have to leave him, I have extreme anxiety but Annika is not only amazing with Carter, she is wonderful with me too! She takes lots of pictures, always stays to hang out with him after his walk and gives him treats. She is so easy to work with and I have so much peace of mind when I am away because I know that she takes such good care of him! Thank you Annika!!
Jaelen has been a tremendous help to me and Kyoshi. Her communication and punctuality are commendable. Most especially, the genuine care and understanding she gave to Kyoshi. Her reliability made my mind at peace that Kyoshi was in good hands while I was working on site. Kyoshi is looking forward to bond and to have future walks with Jaelen! 💕
