About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines so pets feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether a pet is energetic, anxious, or more independent, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to provide dependable, gentle care every time. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day.

About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a kid which included multiple dogs, a hamster and now currently a cat. Whatever task you need me to do I will be sure to complete it with precision and care. I feed my cat and clean her litter box everyday for the past two years. It is now a big part of how I get my day started and how it ends. I walk my mothers dogs, wash them and feed them on top of doing all of the same things for my cat throughout the day.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in elementary school until I finally got one of my own! I have done tons of research on training and even dog body language. I am trustworthy and will care for a dog as if it were my own. Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I have most of my day free. I would like to help out people who want their pets to be loved and cared for when they can't be there. I care for my pets at home by making sure they are comfortable, happy, and safe. I go by what they want and need by checking their body language and overall making sure they have a great time.
About: I've always had dogs and crate trained my dogs. I know how to train basic commands but nothing really beyond that. I do love playing with dogs and also relaxing with them as well. I do work full time but I do work from home most of the week. So my schedule is pretty flexible for the most part. I have a fenced yard, and 4 friendly dogs. We do have 2 cats but they stay outside as they don't like our dogs. I make sure the the pet I babysit is comfortable and listen to instructions on the owners requests.
About: A little bit about me is that I'm a Special Education Teacher on Summer Break. I also have over 10 years of experience caretaking for my own pets, including my childhood dog and my two cats. I know how to create and maintain routines for pets, and I prioritize cleanliness, consistency, and providing lots of love! I currently have open availability to check on your babies, house sit, take them on walks, and more. I am also available to check in every 2 hours, or longer, as needed. When in your home, I will care for your babies by following their normal daily routines and any instructions you leave for me. I can feed your babies, clean their bowls daily, provide fresh water, provide exercise and playing time, spend time with your babies, administer medication as needed, and clean up after them. I also prioritize communication and sending updates through photos and/or messages. (:
About: Hi, I’m Ethan! I’m 19 and I’m ready to make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and entertained under my care! I have had pets of my own since I was young and love animals. I am most experienced in cat and dog care (all ages), but can care for smaller animals as well! I am always ready and willing to learn your pet’s exact needs and wants in order to fulfill them. Though I have my own pets I am well experienced in taking care of other people’s as well! I have been providing pet and house care services for friends and family since my pre teen years- it’s something I’m passionate about! Thank you for reading and I hope to care for your fur baby soon! :) I just graduated (class of 2025) and am looking forward to making this my part time job during this gap year, and hopefully in the long run! I love animals/pets and helping others, and am ready to dedicate my time to this important work for you and your pets included! I am prepared to learn your pets needs no matter how simple or complex they are- my top concern is your pets happiness and health! I promise any instructions discussed and or left for your pets and home will be followed to a T! This includes pets who are particular about how things are done, such as walks, meal time, Potty breaks, and etc (such as my own pets are- lol!) I understand that being welcomed into somebody’s home and taking care of their fur babies is a privilege.
About: I have many years of volunteering at an animal shelter and my main job was to train, and social many of the new dogs they would be in. As well as my entire life my family has always had pets growing up. I am currently working full time at a dental office however I have a set schedule. I am a person that likes to be extremely organized and plan my days accordingly along with my own pets needs as well as caring for the needs of other pets. I am very flexible when it comes to changing spaces. So whatever particular care your pet needs won’t be a problem. I can follow clear directions as well if there’s anything specific to your pet needs.
About: As someone who has pets of their own, their health is my top priority! I have 6 cats, I work so they can have a comfortable and happy environment to live in! I have plenty of time to board and I am currently available all day on weekends and for weekdays I'm available at 11am and after but I can board earlier depending on my availability of that day. I am able to follow clear instructions on any conditions about your animals. Animals are family, and I'll make sure that yours gets the best care needed. Understanding animals body language is important to me, knowing what our furry friends are trying to tell us builds trust, I want to make safe environment for myself and your animal.
About: With 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I treat every pet like a member of my own family. I've cared for both kittens and puppies under a year old, as well as senior dogs aged 10 and up. Staying at home allows me to dedicate my time and attention to your furry friends, just like I do with my own beloved dog. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I'm like a pet concierge, but instead of booking spa days, I'm giving belly rubs, playing fetch and going on walkies. I am very flexible and can watch/ walk your pets from daily and on weekends. Depending on my availability I can care for your baby up to a week if needed. After walking your pets, I usually ask where and how you would like me to leave you pets at home whether it be their crate, just in home or outside in their yards. For caring at my own home for your pets be rest assured that they will be receiving the upmost attention and no leaving their side as I stay at home and care for my own pup who is 1.
“Arthur has been a godsend and a huge help with my dog, Rufus. He's quick to respond, been super accommodating with my scheduling needs, is super attentive with my dog, and thoroughly responsible and nice. He's also great with feedback and helpful observations about Rufus' health and wellness. Totally recommend him.”
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was raised around animals and treat them all like they are my own. I have experience with puppies, dog walking, and managing multiple dogs at one time. I currently work full time at a school but I like to take care of animals when I am free. I have a lot of time off and my weekend is open for any fur baby that needs me. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.

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

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.

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.
