About: Ive always been a lover of animals and my family and I have rescued multiple cats and dogs since I was little. Ive learned how to take care of even pregnant cats. I usually wake up around 8 am to feed my cats and clean their litter boxes at around 10 am. I come back at around 12 pm for a little snack and by 8 pm they have dinner and I clean the litter box for the second time. I keep a clean environment so that my cats are able to roam freely and I dont have to worry about them getting sick. Cats can get bored as well so I play with them and even talk with them.

About: I have been a pet sitter for various platforms and have loved my experience of meeting new people and learning about their pets. I would love to get to know you! I am a senior in college and have been pet-sitting for about one year. I am independent, communicative, and flexible. I am studying wildlife conservation and have a plethora of experience getting my hands dirty. Pet Care is very important to me. I am in my senior year of college, so I often have services available on days when I do not have classes. It is serious work; pet care is just as critical as childcare, so I'd like to ensure that I give enough time and attention to the pets that I am working with I am very hands-on throughout my pet-sitting experience. I love getting to know each personality of the pet that I am watching and learning new things about each person that I meet. I am very communicative throughout and a quick learner.
About: Hi! My name is Tyson, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. Growing up with pets taught me early on how important patience, consistency, and love are when caring for animals. I currently work in childcare as a nanny and babysitter, and many of the families I work with also trust me with the care of their dogs inside their homes. Over the past seven years, I’ve gained experience caring for other people’s pets, including walking, feeding, bathing, nail trimming, and general grooming support. I also have my own Cane Corso at home, so I’m very comfortable handling large and strong breeds. Because of this, I’m confident managing leash pullers on walks and working with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I pay close attention to dog body language and always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment for every pet in my care. I’m an active person and love engaging with dogs through walks, playtime, and enrichment so they stay happy and stimulated. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and has a great time while you’re away. I do childcare as far as being a nanny from 2:40 pm to 6 PM Monday through Friday so I am available anytime before or after that time. And I am available all weekend long. When caring for pets, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just like they would with their owner. In a client’s home, I respect their routine as closely as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions to help the pet stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while you’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, supervised environment where they can relax and stay active. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, and I make sure every dog gets proper exercise, structured walks, and positive interaction. I always pay close attention to body language and behavior to ensure all pets are comfortable and stress-free. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident that their pet is happy and in good hands.

“My dog Moses can be handful and he is not used to walking . De Juan was patient while exhibiting excellent skills calming Moses down in preparation for his walk. Moses enjoyed his walks with De Juan very much. De Juan was great handling my dog and very pleasant and professional. I highly recommend him, and would not hesitate to reach out for his services again!”

“Lori did an exceptional job with walking Bella. She is very loving and caring. Bella has already fallen in love with her. She is dependable and was there on time and communicated well with the pickup, comments on the walk, took pictures and the return. She followed instructions that were given. I highly recommend her services.”

About: After spending my childhood years helping take care of dogs of many breeds and sizes, I naturally became a dog lover! I have been a dog owner for 15+ years to my pom-chi and I recently added a bichon-poo to my pack. They are treated like my babies as I have been nurturing them since they were puppies. Along side my mom's Chihuahua at times- the girls are very healthy, happy and playful. Outside of being a dog mom, I always have a love and connection to the animals and enjoy volunteering at the shelters and horseback ranch. I've administered oral and ear medication, post op care, given baths/grooming, brushing teeth, taken care of puppies... among other pet care needs. I signed up to provide these services as I enjoy the company of dogs. They're fun loving animals and a pleasure to take care of. I ensure to make your fur baby feel like they're at a home away from home. I currently live with 3 dogs and a cat of all different ages, while working from home full time. We have a routine of our own which other fur babies are welcome to join. I'm currently working from home full time and have time throughout the day to look after and care for your pets with plenty of play, rest, water and care. I have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to enjoy. My 2 other playful girls are there to join in on the fun while my senior dog can show off her favorite spots to lounge and sun bathe. I sometimes take the dogs for walks around my neighborhood so they're able to release energy and enjoy time outside the property. Although I am home, I do have crates available, if your dog prefers their own personal space. I've administered oral and ear medication, post op care, given baths/grooming, brushing teeth, taken care of puppies... among other pet care needs. In case of emergency, I'm 5 minutes away from a caring vet that I use as well as a 24 hour animal hospital.
About: I’ve watched young puppies to older puppies and cat and treated every animal with love and respect so they feel safe, seen, and cared for. I work online so my daily work is flexible. I can work anywhere and adapt my schedule to spend time with pets throughout the day. I am great at following or creating helpful routines or help the animals feel safe and access food,water, play, sleep, walks, and fun outside activities.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for most of my life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Growing up, I constantly rescued dogs—despite my parents telling me not to—and eventually my passion rubbed off on them too. I recently lost my two longtime furbabies, Isaac and Luckie, both rescues who lived long, happy lives of 14+ years. Losing them reminded me how quiet and lonely home can feel without a pet, which inspired me to begin pet sitting. It allows me to share love, provide comfort, and help pet parents feel at ease when they need someone trustworthy. Over ten years ago, a sitter once lost my dog Luckie. Although I found him, that moment showed me exactly how stressful it is to leave your pet with someone else. Because of that experience, I take safety, communication, and supervision extremely seriously. I’ve cared for several neighbors’ pets over the years, following their feeding instructions, providing multiple walks a day, and sending frequent updates. I offer photos, videos, and even FaceTime check-ins upon request. My goal is for every pet to feel at home, and for every owner to feel confident they’re in good hands. Your pet will receive personal attention, consistent care, and plenty of love here at Canine Clubhouse—their home away from home. Pets are family, and I treat them exactly that way. Available **7 days a week** for overnight and drop-in visits. I provide flexible scheduling, attentive one-on-one care, and a safe, loving environment where your dog will feel right at home. **Additional Services** * Pick-up and drop-off are available for an additional fee. #Important Policies **Puppies & Potty Training** * I do **not** accept puppies **1 year of age or younger**. * I do **not** accept dogs that are not fully potty trained. * If a dog is checked in that is not potty trained after you have been informed of this policy, a $10 per day additional fee will be included. NO SAME DAY BOOKINGS ! **Large Dog Fee** * Dogs weighing **60 lbs or more** are subject to an additional **$10 per day**, which is due at check-in. These policies help ensure a clean, comfortable, and enjoyable environment for every dog in my care. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! I provide personalized, attentive care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm, and cozy environment with plenty of affection, supervised play, scheduled walks, and consistent feeding times. I also send regular photo and video updates so you always feel connected. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar space. I maintain their regular feeding, walking, and medication routines, provide companionship, and ensure their environment stays safe and clean. Your pet’s comfort and well-being always come first, no matter the location.

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 Riverdale. 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 Riverdale 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. 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.

- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
