About: Animals have been my whole life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always the one taking care of our pets, and I’ve had dogs, cats, and all kinds of other animals over the years. Even a squirrel! I’ve also spent years pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family & collègues. Whenever someone needs help with their pets, I am usually the first person they call. I genuinely enjoy getting to know animals and their different personalities! I’ve always been involved in helping animals however I can. Back when I was in school, I organized donation drives for local shelters and volunteered my time there. I also help build shelters for stray cats in the winter for a few consecutive years now! Working with animals has always been a dream of mine. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets and care for them like they’re family, I’d love to help! P.S. I am more than willing to care for any other types of animals! Turtles, birds, rabbits, lizards and hey even a squirrel! As long as all of the proper personal care information is relayed to me in advance :) I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting, drop in visits, and walks. Outside of work, my schedule is very open! I care for pets in their own homes by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I know being away from their owners can be stressful, so I make sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re gone. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are doing well!
About: I have many years of experience working with dogs, cats, and horses. I grew up horseback riding, volunteering at 4-H events, and helping at our local animal shelter, which has given me a broad and hands-on background with all kinds of four-legged friends. Whether it’s caring for farm animals, taking a neighborhood walk or check-in, or administering a shot (as I’m a Type 1 diabetic and comfortable with injections), your animal’s needs will always be my top priority! I currently work full-time Monday through Friday. On weekdays, I’m available in the mornings from 5:00–7:00 AM and in the afternoons/evenings from 4:00–10:00 PM. On weekends, I’m available any time on both Saturday and Sunday! **I may also be available mid-day on Thursdays and Fridays upon request.** I am custom to feeding, crating, walking, or letting animals out of a pen. My two cats currently are what we call, “Spoiled Rotten,” as they are my family members! With the passing of our family’s German Shepard a few years ago, daily walks, feeding, and even the casual car ride were some of his favorites. With this being said for our known house pets- I am also familiar to outdoor pens; water troughs, electric fences, stables, etc.

I have experience with puppies, seniors, and pets that need a little extra reassurance. My goal is always to make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.

I follow all instructions closely, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and household guidelines. I’m respectful of your space, make sure doors and windows are secure, and always double-check that everything is safe before I leave. I keep a clean environment, refresh food and water bowls, maintain litter boxes, and monitor behavior for any changes.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Port Republic on Rover is $0 per walk (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 800 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Port Republic. 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 your Port Republic. 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 Port Republic.

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 Port Republic. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
