About: I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and reptiles of all types. Dogs have always held a special place in my life and since I do not have one of my own right now I would love to help others take care of theirs. Have had many different breeds in my household throughout my life and am up to the challenge with their care! Passionate about having positive experiences with them and to ensure they are comfortable with my care. I currently have two dogs in my household and both are a hand full. I do work a full time job but my schedule is easy to work around since I work in the service industry. Let me play with your pup and give them my love?
About: Amy - I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, reptile, cows, ducks and chickens. I have taken Ag classes in school and my goal is to attend Veterinary School. Can come feed, play, walk your pet and stay night if desired. Im interested in helping in Nelson & Washington Counties. My mom, Rhonda, is my backup sitter and therefore listed on the account as also covered by Rover policies. I have pets at home so prefer to do most care at your home. I have 4 dogs, 2 cats, and a one horse. When not in school, I'm available to help as you need. I'm flexible so know I can work out a plan to care for your pets.

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I have a 2 year old little boy. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.

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 Richardsville. 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.
