“Colleen is very reliable and easy to work with. This was my first time using her and I have already booked another block for a future trip.”
2. Alexis W.
“She’s been caring for dogs for years, she’s previously worked at a racetrack as a vet and also the adoption group there for quite a bit, along with having four dogs of her own. She’s really good with animals and if you have any questions as well about your dog or need help with something about them 9 times out of 10 she’ll be able to help.”
3. Jeremy W.
“We already have a regular walker but Jeremy is our back up dog walker when needed. That said, our experience has been great. He does what we ask him to do and always keeps us informed. My dog really seems to enjoy his time with Jeremy.”
4. Makenzie H.
“I highly recommend Makenzie as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly responsible and genuinely loves animals. During the time she cared for my dog, I witnessed her attention to detail—ensuring proper feeding schedules, along with medication schedules and plenty of affectionate playtime. Makenzie’s dedication and understanding of pet needs gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She’s not just a caregiver; she treats pets as family members, and I cannot recommend her enough!”
5. Olivia C.
“The first time Teddy met Olivia he stood at the door and whined when she left. She obviously had a good rapport with our very hyper Golden. We’ll use her again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life! I have been a trusted house sitter for neighbors with multiple pets and cared for my own lab, golden retriever, and sheepadoodle growing up. I’m currently a graduate student on clinical rotations. When I’m not working in the clinic, I am able to care for pets on my days off. I am willing to house sit or perform drop in visits. I can feed, walk, and clean your pet! I am also willing to administer medication. I will make sure to make your pet feel at ease while you are out.

About: I used to work as a nurse but I’m currently a stay at home momma! I've always had a passion in helping others, but my second passion in life is caring for animals! What better side gig than to help care for some lovely pets. I do have experience through my nephew with service dogs. I attended his two-week training to learn how to handle the dog and commands. I've always had pets, particularly cats and dogs, with a few fishy exceptions. I've been trusted by many friends and family members as the go-to person for pet sitting. You can depend on me to be reliable and caring with your fur babies! Fortunately I’m able to work with most schedules. I’m able to be very flexible with my routine thankfully!! We go with the flow over here! I have a fenced in yard, a garage & plenty of house space. We do have one dog and one cat currently! They are spoiled & very used to being around other animals!
10. Morgan D.
About: Hi y'all. My name is Morgan. I am an experienced cat and dog owner. My 2 adorable orange cats, Lorenzo and Giovanni, have given me valuable insight into the care of a cat. I have experience with both clawed and declawed cats. My two year old great dane, Bailey, is a friendly, loving dog, who has given me experience caring for large dogs as well as female dogs in heat. I also have experience with older dogs as well as small dogs. I am currently a college student and would love the chance to take a much needed study break and hang out with your beloved pet. I know from experience that pets are members of the family, and I will treat your pet as such. My current routine is studyingfrom home every day so I can tailor my study schedule around any schedule that you or your pets may need. Although I prefer to come to your home, but I can do walks, general care, feeding, and just spend time with your babies like I do my own!

About: Hello! I am genuinely so glad to meet you and have the opportunity to help you out! I have almost 10 years of experience with Rover. My main mantra is “Help you have a stress free trip.” I fully understand that leaving your pet (baby) is stressful. I will send you daily photos and updates. I obtained my Masters in Social Work in 2020 and am a licensed social worker. I’m currently practicing PRN medical social work. I am able to create my own schedule and primarily be home with the pets. I am a HUGE homebody and am here with them majority of the time unless I am doing a home visit that day (typically takes 2 hours) or running an errand. The only thing I request be brought is your pets favorite food and whatever medication they are currently taking. It can also be helpful to bring whatever bed is comfortable for your pet to sleep on. If your pet is a bed sleeper, that is OK as well! My main focus is to make you and your pet as comfortable as possible. Many folks provide me with some type of written or typed instruction. This helps me provide you with the best care possible so that whenever they come home, your pet has continued their consistent schedule. This is optional but totally cool to provide! My two babies: Benni and Bowie. They will bark at first and then in an hour they will be cuddles with your pet on the couch. It’s the weiner dog in them. 😂. They love all animals and seriously go into a small depression when your pets leave! They are highly socialized and non aggressive. Please message me with any questions you may have. I cannot wait to meet you and your pup! 🐾♥️ I am a licensed social worker and complete 0-20 hours of home visits a week. I am primarily home and my schedule revolves around taking care of the pups! I send daily photos and updates. Please contact me at any time you would like. Request a meet and greet if you would like to introduce animals yourself. I can also do this professionally and safely. Thank you!

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
