About: Animals deserve the best of care at all times, even when their families can't provide it at all times. From dogs who love to cuddle and hate the outside heat to dogs whose energy never reaches its end, there is one way or another to break our 'species' barrier and connect~ Walks can take any length of time multiple times a day, usually I always have treats with me on walks and work on the dog not pulling on it's leash and doing occasional sits and 'look at me's. House sitting is usually better for me on weekends if required overnight, but my schedule as a remote worker and student is very flexible <3 I’m currently working as a dog trainer, it is my main source of income. I also have a service dog in training which I constantly work with and have cared for multiple pets through out the days fitted into my schedule. I am always doing my best to keep a watchful eye on the dogs while allowing them room to adjust to me and their environment . I encourage freedom and play in dogs with safety in mind.

About: I have always loved animals, and grew up with cats, dogs, and chickens. I'm a strength & conditioning specialist who loves nature and being outdoors with pets! My experience includes dogs of all breeds, pigs, birds, and cats. I enjoy helping dogs feel more confident in their surroundings and I really like Ian Dunbar's positive reinforcement philosophy in dog training. I have volunteered with diverse dog clubs in San Francisco from day cares to fitness runs in the park. My goal is to help your dog be happier through consistent exercise. Enjoying the great outdoors with a furry friend is something I looked forward to every day when I had a dog! I hope to meet you and your fur baby who I will love as my own :) Pet care is apart of my daily routine; keeping my chickens and cats fed, clean, and comfortable in their living and play areas with treats and toys available for entertainment. I have a 12' fully fenced back yard and smaller mobile gates to add boundaries as necessary. Indoor space available on hot days and as needed.
About: Hello, my name is Maxx, and I also go by Mary. I am an experienced pet sitter as well as an ICU Veterinary Technician. I have been a technician for five years, with three of those years in the ICU. I began my pet-sitting journey after experiencing compassion fatigue over the years. I have a genuine passion for animals and have yet to meet one I couldn’t understand. I became Fear Free certified in 2020. I have experience caring for special needs animals, as well as neonates and seniors who require medications and plenty of tender care and attention. I have a whole zoo of my own at home and love extending that love to other pets. I enjoy taking pets on beautiful walks with great scenery and using positive reinforcement when they behave well. I would love for you to reach out and see the services I offer for pet sitting or walking. I currently work relief in veterinary medicine, so I pick up shifts every few days when I feel I have the emotional capacity. I’d like to shift towards pet sitting and pet walking. I have lots available and very flexible as I do freelance work due to my love to travel. When I care for a pet in the home, I follow the parents’ expectations but often go above and beyond to ensure the pet is comfortable and well taken care of. When I walk a pet, I frequently assess any signs of overheating or stress and provide water, a cooling towel, etc. If the pet is stressed, I remove it from that environment and redirect its focus and mindset for the remainder of the walk so they can enjoy it and get exercise. My years of working in vet med have made me very detail-oriented, and I like to keep owners updated when they are out of town. I also collect emergency contacts and the preferred nearest vet that the pet uses. I am ALS certified (Advanced Life Support)

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 Rio Rico. 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 Rio Rico.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
