“Versace was great with communication and took good care of our puppy! No complaints at all with her services and we will definitely check if shes available the next time we are out of town.”
“Brittany is wonderful! I can’t Rave enough! She’s been walking Chloe for about a month, twice a day and has been here promptly rain or shine. She’s taken a lot of pictures of Chloe on her walks and has always provided detailed feedback. She even put up with Chloe hitting her on the back of her legs when she’s showing off her many, many sticks along the way. I will definitely use Brittany again and recommend her to anyone who has a pet to 💕 love. Trari”
“Summer did a great job watching Milo for us! She communicated well with us through the whole process! She met with us prior to our trip and showed up on time each time. Very reliable, I would definitely hire her again! Thank you Summer!”

I'm also happy to help with whatever you need while you're away - bringing the mail in, watering plants, taking the garbage out - just let me know!

I work remotely so my schedule is generally very flexible! Mornings, midday, and evenings during the work week, and anytime Saturday-Sunday. Just reach out and I'm sure we can make it work! I don't currently offer boarding at my home, but when I do, my pets are all very friendly! When in the client's home, I'm very aware and conscious of keeping the surroundings as they were, and using only the rooms necessary to care for your pets. I always make sure doors/windows are closed and/or locked.

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

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.
