About: Hi! My name is Suzy and I am an avid pet lover! I have owned dogs and cats throughout my entire life. I am accustomed to working with both larger and smaller dogs, and have volunteered numerous times at animal shelters. I love taking dogs on walks, to dog parks, and playing fetch. My own dog has separation anxiety and can be difficult to handle at times, but this has prepared me to work with other animals with similar issues! If your dog has specific dietary needs, I will be sure to follow all instructions given. In addition, if your dog needs directed medication, I am capable of administering that. I understand the importance of taking care of your pets, as they are a vital component of your family. I am reliable and eager to work with new furry friends.
“Tara is great- super reliable and very caring. She is a huge dog lover and she took time to get to know my dog and what she needs! She is very concerned for the animals she watches, and I felt completely comfortable that my dog was in good hands every day!”
About: I grew up with various animals, including but not limited to cats, dogs, parrots, rabbits, chickens, and hamsters. From a young age, I’ve been responsible for taking care of animals. As an adult, I’ve also fostered multiple times through MAS and the Humane Society, typically momma cats with kittens and bottle baby kittens. I’m currently a high school teacher with two dogs and two cats of my own. Animals are a huge part of my life, and I’m happy to spend time with yours & make sure they’re thriving while you’re away! I am a high school teacher, so I tend to work M-F 8-3:30. I am available for morning feedings/walks, as well as whatever is needed after 3:30. I am entirely free on the weekends. For summer bookings, my availability is wide open as I am on summer break. While I’m not able to host pets in my own home, I am available to care for them in yours. I am able to follow whatever needs your pets have in your home.
About: I absolutely love dogs and get so excited caring for them. I provide dog walking and sitting in my home or yours, and I treat every pup with kindness, patience, and lots of love. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and have experience with different sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, your dog will be safe, happy, and treated like family with me. Pet care is something I happily build into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, playtime, feedings, and quality time so every dog gets my full attention and never feels rushed. I’m intentional about my availability to make sure each pup receives consistent, loving care and plenty of one-on-one time while they’re with me. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment in my home and always follow each dog’s routine and care instructions. Dogs are supervised, safely leashed on walks, and given plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I have space for crate use if requested, offer enrichment through toys and mental stimulation, and ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their dog’s normal routine to reduce stress.

She not only handled my babies with soooo much poise and grace but she also made sure that me & my husband didn’t have to worry about anything when it came to our babies. We will DEFINITELY be booking with her for future events and etc. she was amazing and her wife was gorgeous and amazing as well!! Thank you both truly!!??”

I am respectful of other peoples spaces. I am loving towards all animals. When I am pet sitting I give the animals lots of attention. When i am house sitting I make sure to leave the space tidy. I am able to watch dogs overnight in my home. Again I have a dog who loves to play with other dogs. I kennel him when I leave the house for short periods of time. There are two dog parks in my area. We usually go on walks and hit up the dog park. I would bring your dog along with permission. I have open availability for pet sitting. I can pet sit at your house or mine.

About: I have 7 years of pet sitting experience, and have petsat dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, pigs, and fish. What sets me apart is my experience with my 14 year old cat. She is diabetic and has a host of other senior Kitty problems. I administer insulin twice a day, glucose curves, and oral medication. I am comfortable doing all of this with your fur baby too. I am also known to give excellent pets and belly rubs! I am now in the clinical year of my Physician Assistant program, so my schedule will be heavily influenced by my preceptor at the time. I would love to walk your pet around the neighborhood and take them to the dog park if that is their interest as well. I give all the pets I petsit lots of attention and cuddles each and every day!
About: I will love your fur babies as my human baby:). I love take dogs on walks.

About: I’ve had a strong love for dogs since I was a small child, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m playful and energetic with active dogs, while also being calm and comforting to more laid-back pups who just want cuddles and company. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making them feel safe, loved, and happy. I’d love the opportunity to enjoy every special moment with your fur baby and care for them like they’re my own. Since it’s summer and I’ve already graduated, I have a very open and flexible schedule and am available most days at almost any time. I’m able to stop by in the morning, afternoon, and again before the night ends to make sure your dog is comfortable, cared for, and getting plenty of attention throughout the day. Taking great care of your dog and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved will always be my top priority. I have a fenced yard, feeding bowls, and a leash to help keep your dog safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m also more than willing to purchase any additional supplies needed to make sure your dog is cared for properly and feels as comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always come first with me.

About: What sets me apart from most is my genuine love of pets and my heart of servitude. I have over 15 years of pet care experience with some veterinary training and animal rescue mixed in. My deep love for animals allows me to grow connections to your pets which helps me tend to their personalities and needs better. I'm HIGHLY experienced with anxious animals as well. I am also a problem solver, critical thinker, and self starter. These traits have helped me jump into action and make wise decisions during animal care. For the past few years I have been sitting internationally with over 20 gleaming 5 star reviews. I am self employed and work strictly from my phone. [ UPDATE: I now have a Part time, Seasonal Job at a makeup retailer. I work a few days a week for about 3-4 hrs a day.] This allows me to be available any time and in short notices. I am reliable with ZERO cancelations AND 5 STARS across platforms. When sitting at your home, I am professional, neat, and tidy. I was once an owner of a organizing and cleaning company which I exercised respect for people's privacy and property. When sitting for you, you will come to a home that is shiny and neat along with happy pets. I also send daily updates in the form of photos or videos so you can rest assured that your babies are in good hands. Lastly, who said your vacation can't be theirs as well? While you are away, they will receive extra walks, play time, and snuggles.
About: Hello, I'm Alex! I am a former Veterinary Technician with 3 years of training, and I've lived around animals my entire life. I have a strong passion for taking care of animals large and small. I am experienced in caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, insects, and many more! My wife, also named Alex, is a professional dog trainer and photographer. Between the two of us, we have years of knowledge regarding animal behavior and care-giving. We can guarantee that if you book with us, your pet will receive the highest quality comfort and safety. We're currently living in a small, quiet neighborhood just north of Memphis. Our house boasts a spacious backyard, with a gated enclosure for introducing new pets safely! We also have easy access to a patch of forest near our house, multiple small parks, and dog-friendly venues and restaurants! Aside from the usual necessities that every pet needs (food, water, and toys), our home is equipped with a variety of kennels, a secure dog bedroom, two litter boxes, and security cameras to ensure that no pets go unsupervised for too long. Our personal pet family consists of a 2yr old mixed-breed dog, adorable Dutch Shepherd puppy, two playful DSH cats, and two reptiles that live in terrariums. I'm a stay-at-home husband working around the clock to keep the house tidy, so your pets will have 24/7 care and affection! Dogs will receive bathroom breaks every 3 hours, supervised playtime in the morning and afternoon, as well as breakfast and dinner if they stay overnight. If your dog is allowed on furniture, let me know ahead of time and they can watch TV with us on the couch or snuggle up in bed! When I'm not at home, I will be helping my wife train dogs, running errands, or dropping into a client's home to look after their pet. We live in a cozy house with a spacious fenced-in backyard. Dog boarders will be able to play, run around outside, and spend quality time with us during the day. Cat boarders will have their own space to roam on the other side of the house, away from barking or loud noises. All dogs are kept separated in kennels while unsupervised, to minimize accidents and discourage bad behavior. We have experience mitigating and deescalating aggressive pet situations, so your dogs will receive top notch protection and security.
About: Hi everyone! I’m Ashley. (Rover lists my legal name, but I’ve gone by my middle name since birth.) I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is for pets to stay comfortable in their own home, so I focus on keeping their routines consistent and their environment calm and familiar. I’m both playful and patient, and I adapt to each animal’s personality — whether that means energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their normal routine. My two goals when caring for your pets are simple: 🐾 Make your pet feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away 📱 Give you total peace of mind with regular updates, photos, and communication You’ll always know how your pet is doing — and you might even get a video of me singing to them if they seem like they’d enjoy it. I have an extrememly flexible schedule, and i am 100% dependable. I am understanding about schedules changing or long work days without notice, and am more than happy for last minute drop in's or walks/feedings. Preferably at least a 1 hour notice, or if we live close by that would be an exception. I am very easy to work with! I care for the pets as instructed, whether it be in your backyard or on a walk or home snuggles/feeding. If your pets are fans of ridiculous humans singing to them, then I am the one for you.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rugby on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Rugby. 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 Rugby.

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 walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rugby. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
