About: **What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep love for animals and my respect for each family’s home.** Growing up on a farm, I learned how to care for a wide variety of animals, from dogs and cats to livestock. This upbringing gave me a strong sense of responsibility and a natural understanding of animal behavior. When it comes to dog sitting, I have experience with training and caring for puppies, as well as attending to the needs of senior dogs. For cat sitting, I understand their unique personalities and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also take great care to respect your home, treating it with the same level of attention and cleanliness I would my own. Whether it’s keeping the space tidy, ensuring your pets stick to their routines, or going the extra mile to make them feel at ease, I’m committed to providing exceptional care. My farm life and love for animals have taught me the value of patience, consistency, and a nurturing approach—qualities I bring to every pet-sitting job. I’m a current college student! I live close to home but still miss my animals while I’m away. I would love to play with yours and become friends with them! **When caring for pets, my priority is their safety, comfort, and happiness, whether in my home or my client's home.** If I’m pet sitting in my client’s home, I ensure their pets stick to their established routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any necessary medications. I’m meticulous about keeping their home clean and respecting their space, leaving it just as I found it—or better. For cats, I maintain clean litter boxes and create a calm environment where they feel secure. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I make sure they have a safe, pet-friendly space to explore and relax. I provide plenty of attention, cuddles (if they’re up for it), and enrichment to keep them happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel loved and cared for while their family is away.
About: I’m a multiple pet owner, with a love of animals and some extra time to take care of yours! I’m great with dogs, especially the big mean scary ones. They can tell right away that I just don’t get intimidated, so we always get along. I love cats, too! My goal is to always get to tummy rubs! And parrots love me for some reason, lol. Since I was little, I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, hamsters, rats, raccoons, fish, turtles, lizards, snakes, frogs, and maybe something I forgot…☺️ I work full time, but the youngest just graduated and I have to find a hobby (and maybe start paying for all that stuff you need when the kids are still at home, lol). I currently help my wife Caitlin on Rover when she’s booked full, or whenever she gets a particularly challenging animal, and I really enjoy it. I follow all instructions, knowing that routine and comfort are essential to our little ones. I can do stop-in visits in the morning and at lunchtime, and extended visits in the evenings and on weekends.

I've had lots of cats growing up and rescued them. I'm currently working at Petsmart been there since July 25'. I'm usually off Thursday's and Sunday's so I will always be here to help your pet. I can always give medication, pills or oral. I've taken care of sick animals during my time at my internship. I have lots of experience on older dogs and cats including the younger ones. I can bottle feed and take care of the young ones
About: Full disclosure, candor, your vocabulary word of choice. Hello, I’m André. I’m a 30y/o Los Angeles pet dad, looking for a nice side gig as well as a way to Connect & edify myself with pet-care & social skills going to forward. Primarily with the animals, yet as well built communicative skills with individuals. -Cheers, André. ✌🏽 Currently I am self-employed. Be that as it may, I have quite the open/flexible schedule. Adherence to any fitted schedule isn’t necessary. Unless communicated prior, scheduling shouldn’t ever be an issue of concern. I’ve been surrounded by, and lived with and have familial pets all throughout my life, but I’ve only recently become a pet father myself as of eight months ago. Actions I take in my home to cater to, and care for my pets include the following: -Thorough research on how to continue to better myself as a parent towards my pets. -Patience becoming more and more a virtue 😅 ha. -Repetition -Understanding Acts of discipline, or constructive experiences to better the bond between myself and my pets, are dismal. Redirection, and communication with the pets consistently build the bond. Consistent, and I mean consistent playtime, proper feeding schedule, toys…I’ve built quite the furniture shop for my cats. Lastly just love them, damn. 😁

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 228 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Oswego. 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 Oswego. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Oswego after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
