About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, and neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to check in on, feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet with the same patience and care I’d want for my own. I’m comfortable following specific routines and making sure pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule for drop-ins, walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine and can provide consistent, dependable care throughout the week. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions closely and make safety and comfort my priority. I’ll keep your pet’s normal feeding, walking, play, and litter or potty routine while respecting your home. I’m patient with pets who need extra time to feel comfortable and will keep you updated while you’re away.
About: Although I am new to pet care, I have lots of experience with many types of breeds and ages. I currently have one 13yr old papillon whom I raised from 12 weeks, and a rescued 2yr old beagle/catahoula hound mix. Both have current vaccinations. Previously, I have 2 senior boxers, a senior german shepherd whom i also raised from a puppy, and a husky who i raised from 1yr old. My home environment is very quiet and relaxed. I have a 6 yr old daughter half of the time and my 2 dogs. I am very watchful and careful with my daughter around the dogs, to prevent any conflicts between them and have had no problems. I have a spacious, fenced backyard for dogs to run around and play. My daughter and I like to throw balls and toys for fetch, play tug of war and run around the backyard with the dogs. We also like to relax in the house. I live in a quiet neighborhood, with plenty of sidewalks for walking. I have no problem taking dogs for walks around my neighborhood or somewhere close by that requires a vehicle to get to. Its a great and fun opportunity for the dogs, my daughter and myself. I also have no problem bathing your dog if requested. I'm Active Duty Air Force so I do work full time during the day M-F. Dogs get let outside to use the bathoom in the morning before I go to work. I can come home at lunchtime to let the dogs outside again if needed. And then when I get home in the evening after work, dogs are let in and out of the house whenever needed to use the bathroom/play/be comfortable. All dogs are fed on a regular schedule. Breakfast before work, midday lunch (if required), dinner after I get home from work. Meds can be given if necessary on the prescribed med schedule. I do not work weekends, and am usually home all day. Dogs are let out to use the bathroom and play on a frequent basis while I am home. Feeding schedule remains the same on weekends as it is during the week. I have a very large, fully fenced backayrd and 2 friendly dogs to keep your pet company. Gumbo, my 2yr old LOVES to run around and play with other dogs. Ophelia my 13yr old is very laid back and likes her space to relax. I have a 6yr old daughter who LOVES to run around outside and play with the dogs. We like to take the dogs on short evening walks around the neighborhood after dinner on cool nights. Gumbo is crated during the day and anytime I am not home. Ophelia is allowed to free roam the house while I am out. I would prefer pets that are crate trained, so they can be crated if necessary for safety/separation. I do also have pet stairs to aid senior or disabled dogs get up onto the couch for a comfy spot to relax

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 65 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Petrolia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Petrolia. 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 Petrolia after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 Petrolia. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% 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 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.
