“Very thankful that Jessica and Chris were available on short notice. They spent a good amount of time with my pup and provided some cute pictures! Definitely recommend”
“Could Paula get any better? It’s impossible. In two visits she has our crazy puppy minding on leash and exhausted for the remainder of the day. Paula even helped source some strategic training in our immediate area. We are feeling blessed to know Paula and appreciate her patience and loving persistence with sweet, crazy Sophie!”
“Liz is very responsive and has been a lifesaver for some unexpected next day bookings. We're immensely grateful for her willingness to work with us to figure out a time slot that worked for everyone! She's thoughtful of our dogs' needs, asking insightful questions about feeding times. And most importantly, the dogs seemed very content in the photos she sent of the visit and when we returned home!”
About: I’ve had a pup (a Pitbull mix!) for about 9 years now which has been the best. I’ve gone through crate and potty training with him as a pup and later behavior training to curb some challenging behaviors. This makes me super flexible with providing commands of all levels and maintaining training progress. Friends and family have asked me to look after their pets, of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I’ve comfortable with giving medications, feeding, bathing, walking, and maintains training skills as needed. I try to be as flexible as I can to the dog’s needs and preferences (as well as the owners!). I’m currently a full-time graduate student, working part-time, and have other responsibilities! I mainly have availability in the evenings on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. Feel free to reach out to see if anything else would work! :) I definitely let the pet warm up to me, just to establish that comfort and safety within the pet. I can crate the pet if needed, either for sleep or for feeding. I definitely want them to be comfortable in their own spaces so I’m pretty open to doing what I can to make that happen!
About: Lifelong animal lover with 7+ years caring for my own 2 dogs, along trusted experience with friends and family’s pets. I make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I’m currently working part-time, so I have a lot of availability throughout the week. I love morning walks because they get me up to start my day while also being active. As well as mid-day and evening walks allow me to take a break from any tasks and get outside in the sun while having some fun! Whether I’m visiting your home or walking your pup, my goal is to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. For walks, I make they get plenty of fresh air, exercise, a potty break, and time to sniff and explore while keeping a close eye. During home visits, I’ll refresh their water, feed them, give potty breaks and spend quality time. I’ll also follow any instructions you leave for me and always treat your home with respect.
“Melissa was great with my dog! at first my dog was very shy but Melissa was patient and worked with my dog until she was conformable to go for a walk. Melissa responded quickly to my request and always took photos of my dog on the walk.”
“Abigail took wonderful care of my dog while I was away for three days. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her and would happily have her watch my dog again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, and even hamsters throughout the years. I am patient with any cat or dog. I am very flexible with hours and payment. I would love the opportunity to get to know your pet and create a meaningful relationship with them. 🐶🐹🐱 Experienced and Willing. After graduating with my Masters in 2023, I am currently a part-time therapist and have flexibility in my schedule for drop ins, housesitting, and walking. My schedule is fairly consistent each week and I can devote time to your pets and their needs. I like to bring dog or cat treats for whoever I’m taking care of because I like to create a meaningful relationship with your pet.

About: Hi I’m Hailey! Growing up my family always had both cats and dogs so I’m very comfortable taking care of pets. I have years of experience with both dog and cat sitting for both short and long term stays. I love to be active and take dogs on walks around the neighborhood and can customize my schedule to fit their needs. I work part time and have a pretty flexible schedule. I can work based around you and your pet’s needs! Available weekdays as well as weekends. I have dog sat for both large and small dogs before and have no issue with tailoring to their needs. I have years of experience pet sitting for long term stays up to a month for dogs, cats, and chickens alike!
“Tyler was kind enough to walk Milo for me on Thanksgiving. Milo was very happy to go with Tyler and was not stressed out when I got home. Tyler was very kind to Milo and I will definitely use him again.”
About: I have 10 years of experience working with pets in a variety of settings including animal shelters, veterinary offices, pet daycares, and as a pet sitter! I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, and can provide specialty care such as medications. I currently do not have a 9-5 so have a flexible M-F schedule! I usually do not have weekends available, but feel free to message and ask if it is a longer stay that would go over the weekend. I ensure to respect your pet and your home. I know it is difficult to trust people with your pets, and I promise to take the utmost care. I have a senior dog myself, and understand every pet is different and has their own needs.
About: I have owned 5 dogs, 2 cats and 10 chickens over the past 40 years and provide service in Naples, FL, Marco Island and Bonita Springs. I am available most days in Naples FL, but very flexible depending on your needs. Do not hesitate to call me, I can give your pup the time and love he deserves. I would prefer to come to your home, only because my home is not fenced in, but could keep the dog on a leash at all times outside
About: I have experience with all kinds of dogs of all sizes. I have owned 3 pitbulls so I for sure know how to handle dogs that size. I also have a park near my house that is very discrete where the dogs can come roam around. It is fenced and barely anyone ever goes to. I used to bring my dogs over there when I had them. I am available full time if needed. I work from home. I can do pick up & drop as well. Please let me know, it would be my pleasure! I care for the dog as if they are my own. I know animals can become family, just as mine have became family. I will go accordingly to your dogs schedules and make sure they have the best care.
About: I’ve always been around dogs for many years and family and friends have entrusted me with their pet care. For their pets, I have done bathing, feeding, regular walks, and playtime. I have flexibility in the afternoons after work from 4pm and forward. Monday through Friday and open during the weekends. Plenty of time to care for your pet! I am only able to offer drop in visits and dog walks if needed since I do not own a place, I currently rent and able to drive to other places.

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 Poquonock. 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.
