About: I’ve grown up with animals & love being with them. All breeds, no discrimation here! I never get tired of playing with them & treat every pet as if they were my own. I have 10+ years experience in the pet sitting for friends/family & have always had all kinds of animals myself. Experience potty training puppies, helping break bad habits of older dogs, administering medications. Experience with pocket pets as well. I’d love to be your sitter! I am out of town 2 weeks out of the month, but otherwise I can do mostly any day at any time. I would love to check in on your pets! Walking, playing, feeding dogs. Playing, feeding, entertaining cats. I can administer any medications that are needed. I always double check that house doors & kennel doors are secured before leaving. I love them like they’re my own!
About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds, plus have years of pet sitting experience for friends & family, even interned at the Dickerson Park Zoo for a summer! Im just new to Rover! I love animals, of all kinds and sizes! I can’t wait to meet you & your pet or pets! I have a pretty flexible schedule, I take care of my own pets daily along with running errands and other daily activities. Pets have always been a big part of my daily life! I unfortunately can’t do boarding but I will gladly stay at your home to make your babies as comfortable as possible! Meeting before you leave allows us to go over their normal routines, feeding, what they love to play. I will gladly dance or sing for your dog to get them to sing, tell me all about your pets silly quirks! Honestly, with my pets weird habits or quirks, nothing phases me anymore! I will not ever judge you for making up a dance just to get your pet to eat.
About: I have tons of experience staying overnight watching animals from puppies to older dogs with several different breeds, I always had an animal at home growing up, and I think that is where my love for animals came from! I am currently working full time from 7:30-4:30 Tuesday through Friday. I do have availability from time to time when the Doctor I work for goes out of town. I am currently unavailable to board animals where I am staying however in the future I would be interested in boarding your fur baby where I reside!
About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.
About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.
About: For over 10 years, I’ve been dedicated to caring for all types of cats and dogs, providing reliable and loving service to my family and neighbors. From playful puppies to calm senior cats, I’ve gained experience with pets of all breeds, sizes and personalities. My commitment to their well-being ensures they receive the best care, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply offering companionship. I’ve built strong relationships with both pets and their owners, always prioritizing safety and happiness. I am very responsive and try to maintain clear, consistent communication. My availability is kept up to date on my calendar, and I am flexible throughout the day depending on bookings. I can come over for a quick feeding or to spend several hours with your pets, depending on what will benefit them the most. I work remotely, which allows me a lot of flexibility to provide care and attention throughout the day. On rare occasions, I may travel out of town, but I update my calendar well in advance to reflect any changes. I’m always open to coordinating schedules and finding arrangements that work well for both the pet owner and the pets. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help and provide reliable care! I follow a consistent routine to make sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. In my own home, my dogs are let out in the morning, midday, and evening, along with daily walks to keep them active and engaged. They are seniors, so I’m experienced with slower paced care and administering medication on a strict schedule, including daily medication for heart disease. I’ve also cared for high energy dogs and puppies! I enjoy keeping them active through walks and play, while always adjusting to their individual needs and energy levels. With cats, I focus on creating a calm, lower stress environments so they can feel safe and build trust at their own pace. I stay on top of litter box cleanliness and make sure they get regular playtime and attention based on their personality. I aim to provide consistent and attentive care for all the animals I take care of!
“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I had a great experience with Olivia. She went above and beyond caring for my dog and made me feel completely comfortable the entire time. Communication was excellent, and it was clear my dog was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Romeo (my pit/jack Russell), is not always fond of new people. Mallory was able to connect with him and provide a positive experience. I'm so glad to have found someone we both like and can turn to when he is in need of physical exertion and I am too busy.”
About: I have raised all 3 of my dogs since they were puppies. They’re very active so I love to exercise with them and teach them all the skills! I think structure and routine are the best ways for them to learn, especially puppies! They’re practically babies! I treat all my dogs like they’re my kids. They truly are a part of my family! I go to college Monday-Friday 8am-12pm. I could walk or come do a check in any of those days after noon! If I’m house sitting I can do any day through the week, I just wouldn’t be home till 2-3 in the afternoon since sometimes I stay at school and study. I could always go back to your house to let them out to potty or play with them and then go back and study! I will always follow any rule you set. The routine you set would be followed to a T. I’m am reliable and very trustworthy. Like I said I treat my own dogs like my kids and I would do the same for yours!!
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats a majority of my life. I grew up with them in the house and know how to take care of them. I love animals and want to make sure they are happy and healthy! I currently work full time but my mornings and afternoons are available for walks during the week. I also have pretty open availability on weekends. Every pet has its own schedule so I want to make sure I follow it to make them feel more safe and secure. Having detailed guidelines depending on how they are normally taken care of is perferred to give them a better experience!
“She’s amazing with Archer. He’s always excited when Breelyn comes over. She makes sure he has food & water before she leaves. She’s so sweet & always sends pictures & gives updates. 10/10 recommend ❤️❤️ thank you again.”

Id like to stick to school schedules. some weekends are ok as long as they are noticed in advance. typically an 8-4 schedule on days My animals trust me completely because I’ve conditioned safety through gentle handling, predictable routines, and positive reinforcement. They done flinch; since I’m their secure base.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals in the house including dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and even turtles. The responsibility of pet ownership has been instilled in me from a young age and I’d love to help out others where I can! I’ve had all sizes and energy levels of dogs including a greyhound, chihuahua, cattle dog, cocker spaniel, and a chiweenie! I’m not at a place in life where I can own my own pet right now but I’d love to help others take care of their furry family members! I work 3.5 days a week and I’m looking to care for pets on Thursday-Sunday! I have a pretty open/flexible schedule on those days! I would be able to walk, play with and/or entertain your dog or cat depending on its needs and energy level. I am a very flexible person and can work and learn to accommodate to your pets needs!

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 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 Republic.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 Republic. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
