“Olivia is great to work with. We needed someone on short notice to walk our dog. Olivia stepped right up to help us out. Highly recommend using her if you need a walker or sitter. Thanks again!”
“Julia is absolutely wonderful with Charlie! She gives him so much care and attention, and it’s such a comfort knowing he’s in good hands with a caring individual. We’re so grateful to have found her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone for their dog!”
“Madison has been a great regular walker for our French Bulldog Pepper! She’s on time, communicative and pays attention to what Pepper needs (such as a shorter walk on a hotter day, or a refill on her water bowl.) Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a child. My family taught me to love, respect, and care for them because they are part of the family. I believe that, just like people, dogs need fresh air, exercise, and time outdoors to stay happy and healthy. I currently live in the United States as a nanny, and one of my favorite parts of my day is taking the family’s dog for walks. I love seeing her enjoy the outdoors, explore new places, and get the exercise she needs. For the past three years, starting when I lived in Colombia, my friends have trusted me to care for their pets whenever they traveled or needed someone reliable. I have experience walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I am responsible, patient, and truly passionate about animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I currently work as a nanny, but I have plenty of free time during the day. I’m available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, which gives me plenty of time to provide relaxed walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. I want every walk to be enjoyable and enriching for your dog, not just a quick trip outside. Every dog has a unique personality, so I like to get to know them and follow their pace. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, exploring different parks, and giving them a safe and fun opportunity to enjoy the outdoors because I truly believe regular walks are important for both their physical and emotional well-being. I also love taking photos during our walks and sending updates to pet parents, so you can see how much fun your dog is having and feel connected while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to come home happy, exercised, and excited for our next walk.
“Kathy is energetic, sweet & my dog loved her! She made sure Molly was walked the full 1/2 hour, was safe and did everything she needed to do (pee & poop). I highly recommend Kathy & will be using her again.”
“Kevin was great! He came by to get introduced before the first walk. we got updates on when he arrived, how the walk went and photos! Larry was happy and we felt that he was in good hands while we were await for the day.”
About: We are a pet friendly house. I have dog sat since I have been in my early 20’s. My family and I had a wonder dog for over 12 years who passed away in 2019. Now we are looking forward to opening our home to other families fur babies! I am a mom of two boys ages 9 and 12 . On occasion, I will watch my 3 year old niece in my house during the day. We live in a very dog friendly neighborhood with plenty of places to walk. We also have a yard that is partially fenced in. We can also crate your dog if needed.
“Dion was excellent! She was caring, she was thrilled to meet our dog, Kohana, she was punctual and highly responsible. She asked all the right questions and went above and beyond in every respect. We would recommend her highly! We will definitely reach out to her in the future.”
“Helena went above and beyond! I reached out last minute because I was stuck at work and she was able to walk my dog. She took the time to make sure my dog was comfortable and familiar with her before they went for a walk. She also refilled his water bowl! My dog is very timid and shy with new people but he warmed to Helena with just a few treats.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Penfield
We absolutely love Olivia! She has been wonderful and incredibly patient with Bear, who definitely has a personality of his own. 😊 She does such a great job reading his mood and adapting to whatever kind of day he is having, which has made such a difference. She is also a fantastic communicator, dependable, and genuinely seems to care about Bear. With a recent change in my work schedule, having her help has been a HUGE relief and has made life so much easier for me. I feel completely comfortable knowing Bear is in such good hands. We are so grateful to Olivia—and I know Bear is pretty happy about it too! 🐾❤️

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 Penfield. 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 Penfield after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

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.
