About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember and absolutely adore them. I grew up with my golden retriever, who was by my side for 18 years, so I know how special the bond with a dog can be. These days, I spend lots of time with my in-laws’ Bernedoodle, Al, who I love babysitting and taking care of. I’m very active and love getting outside for long walks, hikes, and adventures, but I’m equally happy spending time cuddling and keeping a dog company at home. I’m responsible, attentive, and will treat your dog like they’re my own! I’m very active and naturally build walks into my daily routine. I take several walks throughout the day, including a long walk every morning and evening, and would love to have a pup join me! I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual routine. I’m attentive to their needs, respectful of their home, and will always follow your instructions closely.
“Rachel was amazing! From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, kind, and professional. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs, and that made all the difference. We can’t recommend her enough and will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Here’s a draft for your review: Claire was an amazing dog walker for my dog, Pancho! She was incredibly kind and attentive, always making sure he was comfortable and happy during their walks. Pancho absolutely loved her, which says a lot about how great she is with animals. Claire was also super punctual, always arriving on time and sticking to the schedule. Booking with her through Rover was a breeze—she made the whole process so simple and stress-free. I highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. Thank you, Claire, for taking such great care of Pancho!”
About: I have owned pets since I was a kid.. from cats and dogs to birds, turtles, ferrets and even rats! My currently lifestyle of on and off traveling does not allow for me to responsibly keep a dog or cat so I’d love to adopt yours for the day, week, or month! I am pretty available throughout the week unless there is a work conflict. Currently no day is out of question. We can discuss further in chat. The ideal situation is for me to drop by your place and be with the pet in the environment that it is most familiar with. Separation anxiety is real and it’s harder when the pet is also in a new area. I will provide plenty of walks, playtime, & love of course! For pets with separation issues I am willing to stay in-home to ensure your baby feels at ease while you are away.
About: I've cared for dogs and cats in all stages of life and all sizes. I'd love to help keep you at ease so you can enjoy your travels and your pets get the care they deserve. I'm currently working full time in town as a journalist, usually 9 to 5pm hours with an hour lunch break (meaning I can check on your pups and cats in the morning, midday and as soon as I'm off work). I also have the option to work from home a good chunk of the time, meaning I have flexible time to watch your pets in person throughout the day. I'm also happy to house sit at your home to watch pets overnight. Given my flexible work schedule, I can work from home (or yours) to watch your pets for longer periods of time. I can also house sit to ensure 24/7 care and supervision :)
About: I grew up with three dogs and a cat. I’m a runner, so would always take the pup for a nice adventure with me. Let’s play! I currently work as a freelance environmental consultant and writer, and can do much of my work from home! I can take a break to check in on a pup or cat, or work from your place if preferred. I love taking and sending pics of your buddies! I have a yard at my place and live right by Josie’s but would prefer yours.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rafter J Ranch
First time using Rover and Maria made the whole process so easy. Very communicative on updates and it was so nice getting photos of my dog, too. I even had a tiny mix-up with my old/new address on here (started an account years ago, but never used it) and she was understanding about it. Hoping to be a repeat client. Thanks so much, Maria!

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 Rafter J Ranch. 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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
