About: I have grown up with almost any animal you can imagine. Very competent to care for dogs, cats, horses, or even chickens and other farm animals. I am also a nurse, so can administer medications and injections if ordered by your veterinarian. I would love to put your mind at ease knowing your animal is safe and loved while you’re away. I am currently only working two shifts per week so my availability is pretty open, as long as I am notified ahead of time. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to see if our schedules would align well for me to board your pet! I have a fenced in yard (1/2 acre) plus 4.5 more acres to walk on a lead.. also we have 3 dogs (which vary greatly in size) that I would love to have company over to play and snuggle.
About: Hi! My name is Jayden and my wife Lisa and I are excited to care for your pup like they’re part of our family. Lisa works from home and I work a hybrid schedule, so there will almost always be someone home with your dog to give them attention, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day. We also have 2-year-old twins who absolutely love dogs and are used to being around them. We always make sure interactions are gentle, safe, and fun for everyone. We have a 1-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Redford who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around to play with. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we live in a great neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Your pup will get at least two long walks every day, plus as many potty breaks as they need. We love getting outside and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with us! I am completely free on the weekends. Happy to do drop in visits or walks. I am also free during the evenings and during lunch hours on Wednesday and Friday. Let me know what schedule will work well for your pet. I will treat your pets like they are my own. I will make sure to give them the love and attention that they need and carefully look over your instructions to make sure they are properly cared for.

About: I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. I love all animals, young and old. I’m looking forward to taking care of your fur baby!! I work 2 part time/student assistant jobs so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am always willing to schedule and plan ahead as well. I have one cat at home, but that’s it. I am not afraid to work with dogs that are excited or jumpy and I can take them in and out of their crates!
“Jay does an amazing job with Annie and sensitive to her needs. I highly recommend Jay to anyone who is in need of a dog walker especially if it's an emergent last minute situation. Thank you Jay you were a major help with Annie.”
“Nicole is extremely dependable and trustworthy. She regularly walks my two boys for me during the week, and I always come home to them happy and tired after their walks with her. It's a huge stress relief to have someone so caring taking care of my dogs while I'm away. Not only does she take them for walks, but she makes sure their water is filled and gives them lots of love before she leaves (with treats and ball time). Nicole also messages me with any concerns about my dogs, including checking in to make sure the length of the walk isn't too much for my older dog. We are lucky to have Nicole as such a great dog walker and you won't regret picking her to take care of your furry family. :)”

My roommate also currently owns a puppy that I help out with as well. I am currently a full time student at GVSU and I have a part time job but it is very flexible. I can always make scheduling work as long as we communicate! I do not board other dogs very often unless it is dire. But trust and safely will depend on where you live and what you and your pet are comfortable with.
About: I understand that people need services for their pets as most people are heading back to work after being remote for over a year. I work from home three to four days a week so I am able to provide the extra care at an affordable rate in the comforts of your own home. I regularly house sit for different animals. I have watched horses, lambs, dogs, & cats. I grew up with always having pets and never without. I’m available at different times throughout the week and mornings on the weekend since I work full time. I take my dog outside for walks in the local area during my lunch hour. Since I work from home, I would love to help other pet owners. Feel free to message for additional details. I have a golden retriever that I can bring along for companionship on a walk or socializing. I can stop over to crate, let out for a potty break, house sit, and take your pet for a walk. I do not offer boarding at my house but willing to come to you.

About: I have taken care of dogs all my life practically but I have been doing it as a job since I was 16 years old. When I was 16 years old and could drive I started doing at home dog care in my hometown for people who needed dogs sitters when they went of out town. I have always grown up with a dog in the house. From the time I was 5 to age 21 my family and I had 6 male dogs and a litter of 6 puppies over that span of 16 years. I now have my own dog which is a male golden retriever. I have a lot of experience with training puppies. I have done a lot of hunting with dogs over the years so that has been some of my favorite training to do. I have cared for dogs of all ages, qualities, breeds, and sizes. I love being around dogs period! Pet care fits into my schedule very well! I work from home and travel so when I am working from home I am able to do pet care many times throughout the day and even host pets over night when I am not out of town for work travel. I care for pets in my home and in client's homes to the highest level of care possible. I put the dog first in every matter possible and I really enjoy doing activities or attention to dogs that they really enjoy. I like to say I can think like a dog and I can read their mind which helps me understand what makes them happy and how they want to be cared for. I always do what's best for the dogs safety and health and follow all pet owner instructions given about their dog.

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 Petersburg. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Petersburg.

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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Petersburg. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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 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.
