“Jackie has been great! We’ve only used her for walks so far but she has always showed up on time and used at least the full half hour. Leo always seems well exercised when I get home! She feeds him his lunch as well. :)”
“Maria is absolutely incredible! She’s super communicative for every walk she does for our dog jojo, and always goes above and beyond. We couldn’t be more happy with our experience over the last two months.”
About: I have been providing pet sitting services for at least 15 years now for our various personal family friends and others. I love animals and have had pets my whole life. They are my fur babies, and yours will be treated the same! I am a recently retired mom and grandma who has two fur babies. I can provide my own transportation, and I’m available all throughout the day for various times as needed. I would be happy to help you with your fur baby needs. I plan to provide pet care in my client’s home and keep to the same schedule they are used to. It is my goal to make sure they are comfortable and safe before I leave from the visit.
“Kaitlin is fantastic! She’s been looking after Loki our GSD since he was 4 months and now checks in once a day when I’m at the office to give him lovin’s and take him on a walk. She is also incredibly knowledgeable and is a great resource for new pet parents!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14 years old and have always had a genuine love for pets. Over the years, I’ve helped care for a variety of animals, including cats, ferrets, and dogs through pet sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family friends. I also have a 9 year old Border Collie/Lab mix of my own, who I’ve cared for and grown up with. Pet care is something I do on the side because I truly enjoy being around animals and building bonds with them. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Since caring for animals is something I genuinely love, I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m open and adaptable to different pet care needs and always happy to help however I can! House sitting and overnight stays are available on a case by case basis depending on each pet’s needs, routine, and care requirements. My goal is always to provide reliable, loving care while making sure both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for by being patient and understanding with their individual personalities and needs. With my own dog and other pets I’ve cared for, I’ve learned that building trust takes time, so I never force interaction. I let pets come to me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Creating a calm, loving, and stress free atmosphere is always my priority.
“Nicole is great and takes such wonderful care of my dogs!!!! My dogs are soo much happier and comfier when I get home from a long day at work after she walks them:)))”
About: Hello! I’ve grown up with all kinds of pets since a young age. I was trusted by neighbors to pet sit/house sit during their trips and when I got older I became an independent contractor for a pet sitting company! I worked there only a year due to relocation but there I learned animal behaviors and personalities, walking, playing, comforting, and even how to administer medications to pets!! I have a big heart for animals so I’d love to meet your fur babies and take the best care of them for you! I’m currently working very limited part time, and am available for meet n greets any day except Tuesday!! I have a clear schedule because I hope to dedicate majority of my time to taking care of animals :) I plan to have meet n greets before any official visit so I can learn your pets routine and behavior around me and give them the best care in your home!
About: I've had a dog in my home since I was born, having 7 different dogs in my home over my lifetime. For the first time in 32 years, I have no dog in my home, because I'm living with my sister and can't get one of my very own, but I have lots of doggie love to share with your pups! Im currently unemployed and lost my most recent dog last year, I'm not quite ready to take the plunge and get a dog yet, but I miss having a pup around and have a lot of doggie loving to give. I promise to treat your dogs with the utmost care, and like they were a member of my own family. I'll keep them safe and happy until you can be reunited.
About: I have always taken care of my own pets and have pet-sat for years, for both dogs and cats. I enjoy walking dogs and caring for them. I am looking for a part-time flexible job that will fit into my current schedule. I am available with notice and can be available early or late. I will only take care of pets in your home. I currently have a dog and 5 cats and could not upset their balance. I enjoy walking with the dogs and playing fetch. I also enjoy down time just talking with them and petting them.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was born. All different sizes, breeds, and personalities. They truly become a family member, and should be treated as such...with love, care and respect. I have cared for others' dogs as I would have my very own. I currently live in an apartment. There’s a fenced in area that will allow your dog plenty of room to run, play, & feel at home while their parents are away. There’s also trails in my neighborhood if you’d prefer your pets to go on walks! I have a 6 yr old dog named Ivy. She’s very playful & loves meeting new friends! I also have a cat of my own that gets along well with dogs. However, if your loved one does not like cats, I will be sure to separate them from each other to avoid any concerns you may have. I do not have any children, and have a very flexible work schedule that will allow me to be with your pets as often as you would like! Looking forward to taking care of your loved one soon 🤍 I’m currently working 3 days a week Monday-Wednesday with flexible hours allowing me to be home frequently with your pets. On the days that I am working outside of my home, I have flexibility to come be with your pet during a lunch break & check in! I have two friendly pets of my own to keep your fur baby company while I’m working, or running an errand. I can also crate your dog, and mine, if requested.
“Stephanie really came through for us in super short notice. I have two pit bull type breeds and I booked her the night before we left with no way for her to be introduced. She came over and was really good at introducing herself and was not intimidated at all. Because of that my Pooh got two walks a day while we were gone on vacation. Thanks Stephanie!”
“Camille is so great with Hallie! She is clearly a dog lover and Hallie loved her. She is prompt with her timing and she always sends many pictures and great communication each visit. 10/10 would recommend for anyone needing someone to walk or watch their fur baby.”
“Ariel did an amazing job with my boys! My blue heeler can be finicky around new people and take time to warm up. She took time to hang out with him until he was comfortable. They are always in a good mood when they come back from their walks so I know they had a great time! Thank you, Ariel!”
“Magdalena was outstanding! She was very attentive and caring with our dog, and she engaged with him in different ways, including walks in the neighborhood and the nearby park and playing with him in the back yard and inside. Our dog gets anxious when we have to leave him at home, but she really helped mitigate his anxiety. We will gladly use her services again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,348 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ostrander. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Ostrander. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Ostrander.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ostrander. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
