“Christine is amazing. I know my dogs had the best time with her. She was constantly updating us and sending us pictures which we loved, as we were on vacation. She was kind enough to even clean up the floor a bit since our dogs can be a little messy. We will definitely be contacting her again and even recommending her to friends. Thank you Christine!!”
About: I have over 8 years of experience dog sitting and one year working as a veterinary technician. I’m reliable with walking schedules, feeding routines, medication administration, and providing attentive, safe care. I work remotely, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for consistent walks, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day while giving pets attentive care. I provide pet care in clients’ homes, carefully following instructions and routines. I ensure secure environments, safe leashed walks, proper feeding, and attentive, respectful care during every visit.
About: I have many years of experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments. Friends, neighbors, and family rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I am also experienced in administering basic medications and always handle every pet with patience, care, and love, as if they were my own family. My schedule is flexible, enabling me to dedicate ample attention to pets throughout the day. I thoughtfully organize my routine to cater to each pet’s needs, covering feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. I focus on safety and diligently follow each pet’s routine. I keep a clean, peaceful environment, supervise pets constantly, and stick to house rules. I stay in regular contact and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after.
About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them! I have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether we’re going for walks, playing with their favorite toys, or cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of pictures and check-ins! I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care! I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible so they can stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I’ll be caring for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they already feel safe and familiar. I’m very respectful of each pet’s routine, boundaries, and personality, and I’ll follow any instructions you leave closely. I’ll also make sure your home is treated with the same care and respect I would want someone to give my own.
“He is very nice and kind to my dogs which is what I was looking for! Also very responsable and reliable which was very important for me and my husband! I 100% recommended him!”
About: I truly love animals and take pet care seriously. I have some experience taking care of my own dog at home, as well as helping care for dogs owned by friends and family. I am patient, responsible, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine since I’m currently working part-time, so I am able to plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I always follow the owner’s instructions and provide care in a safe, clean, and calm environment. I currently live in an on-campus apartment, where I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I respect routines and communicate clearly with owners to ensure pets are safe and well cared for.
About: Since age 12, pet sitting has given me experience with different animal personalities, feeding, walking, playtime, from family or friends ownership and bringing me joy. Available Monday to Friday, morning to 3 pm if you need more time and please text me only. I can't wait to meet your pups. I have a small fenced yard and a service dog. Otis (my dog) will love to have a company to play with. I will make sure they will feel safe and comfort.
“Excelente la experiencia .Melida estuvo pendiente de los detalles .se cumplieron todas las instrucciones para el cuidado de mi perrita ,me mantuvo informada y eso me daba tranquilidad,gracias...Me encanto la aplicacion”
“Miranda is wonderful! My dogs love her. She sends us cute pictures and vids of the dogs during the visit/walk, is very responsive and so professional. We would recommend her services!”
About: Hello! My name is Kimberly. I speak both English and Spanish. And I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your lovely pet. I’ve taken care of other dogs from family or friends over the years. Taken care with love, affection, long walks, and of course belly rubs! :) I’m currently a part-time college student. But at the moment, I can take care of your pet through the week and weekends any time you like. :) I will provide walks around my neighborhood through out the day and night. I have a small, male dog that loves to play and keep company. He is unneutered, but totally controllable. I have several family members living with me that love having pets around as well so your dog will be extra spoiled with love. 🥰🥰 I’m home everyday. I take dogs out for a walk about 4 times a day but if needed more, in case you have a pup or a senior dog, I have no problem with that. I always clean my floors and make sure I don’t have anything laying around that could be a choking hazard. And dogs will never be left unsupervised, unless owner is okay with it.
About: I have a Pitbull named Chance and a Calico cat named Shawty who are my world. I also have experience with exotic animals, such as lion and tiger cubs, lemurs, small primates, etc. I am the designated pet sitter in the friend group! I have a very open and irregular schedule, as I am a full time musician and usually create music late nights. This allows flexibility to be able to care for your babies. Update pictures are very important to me, so I am the same when caring for others pets. If you have home cameras, I feel even more comfortable so you can watch live and first hand as I do my job! I follow instructions to the T when it comes to pet care. If your fur baby has any special ways to prepare their food, any specific route they like to go on walks or whatever they may need, any background music or show that you play for them.. I’m happy to accommodate. For example my Pitbull does not eat if I am out of town, and likes to sleep with ocean wave sounds.. it helps him if whoever is pet sitting him stays for a couple of minutes so he can feel comfortable and eat, and also ask my Google speaker to play ocean waves before leaving. I wouldn’t treat your pets needs any different than I’d expect for someone to treat mine for their health and safety.
“I am absolutely happy with Cameron's dog walking services through Rover! She was amazing. Not only was she professional and efficient, but she also showed genuine love and care for our our furry baby, Rufus. The regular updates and adorable photos she sent us while we were away put our minds at ease. We're so grateful for Cameron's exceptional service and can't wait to book her again for our next trip. Thank you, Cameron, for providing walking Rufus - you're the best!”

About: Hi there! My name is Steph, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up helping raise three German Shepherds and now care for a long-haired shepherd with my family. I also can’t resist feeding and loving on any street cats I come across! Whether it’s dogs or cats, I treat all pets like family—patient, reliable, and always attentive to their needs. My background working with kids with special needs has given me extra patience and care, which I bring into every pet I look after. Expect lots of love, cuddles, and plenty of tail wags or purrs along the way! ****I send owners LOTS of photos and videos throughout the day; I just do so through iMessage or Whatsapp with most of my clients, making the photo sharing percentage on here inaccurate! Just want to clarify 😊**** Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I took some time off but am ready to get back into it. I work from home as a virtual RBT, which gives me flexible hours to provide consistent care and attention. Even while working, I enjoy keeping pets close—resting a hand or foot on them for comfort. I truly love furry companions; they make the best coworkers. I don’t host pets at my home, but I love caring for them in their own space where they feel happiest. I’m flexible with routines and happy to follow your pet’s needs, whether that’s long walks, playtime, or cozy cuddle sessions. I just ask that pets are friendly so we can all feel safe and comfortable together. My goal is to keep tails wagging, purrs going, and everyone at ease!
About: I have 9 years of experience caring for animals, starting when I got my first dog at 7. I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life, and I truly enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I am currently working part-time so I have a very flexible schedule to make time to take great care of your furry friends! I am available weekends, and Monday through Friday 7 am - 1 pm, and 7 pm on. I follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and clean environment. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions carefully so their pet feels comfortable and at ease.
About: I've been a dog lover since I was born. I've participated in adoption and rescue campaigns for vulnerable puppies, understanding the needs of each one and respecting their routines. My intention is always to make them feel loved and cared for. I welcome shy, playful, and expert heart-stealing puppies. I recently moved to Miami and I have a part-time job, which allows me to dedicate myself to my true passion, which is caring for animals. I currently live in an apartment with private park areas and have transportation available to get around. I can also care for the pet at the owner's home for the pet's greater comfort.
About: As a kid, I wanted to know everything there is to know about Dogs. I’ve learned all the dog breeds and how to train them. Once I got my first dog(American bull dog ) at the of Age 17 I properly trained him. My family and friends were impressed on how well trained he was that they gave me opportunities to train their pets throughout the years. I’ve gain a lot of knowledge on what works and what doesn’t. It all depends on how the dogs gets motivated. I’ve also had experience in housesitting and taking care of the household pets. I’m currently a part timer at Publix . I’m usually free throughout the week, and I work a mid shift on the weekends. I’ll be available in the evening or at night for weekends but on the week days I’m available in the mornings as well. If you have a gated fence, I like to go outside with your pet and watch them go to bathroom and give them some exercise with a toy or just simply running around them. If you would like me to walk your dog around the neighborhood I would make sure they are safe and secure and I’ll protect them as if they were my own.

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 Richmond West. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Richmond West after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.

- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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 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.
