“Diane was so wonderful with my doggos! I was so nervous since it was my first time leaving them with a sitter but she made me feel so at ease. The pictures I got were of them smiling and having a blast ❤️ I’m sure they’re ready for their next walk with her.”
About: I've provided care for cats and dogs ranging from kitten and puppy to senior. I've been walking and doing daily in-home visits for several years, as well as taking care of my own animals. I also have experience with lizards and rabbits. I work part-time, so I'm flexible and have more open availability. I'm usually avaliable on short notice and can make earlier morning or later evening visits or extended visits during vacations. I'm happy to follow any care instructions you may have, including crating or other special considerations. I'm fine administering meds and also have some experience with wound care.
About: I have taken care of and been around animals since I was a child. I had worked in Dog Daycares, walking dogs, and being a sitter for all kinds of animals. I can be gentle or authoritative with your pet while giving them love and kindness. My life is taking care of animals and loving them. I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets for walks, playtime, and so much more! I am quite strong to be able to hold tightly onto a leash if your animal is leash reactive. I am well versed in dog body language and can handle a hyperactive animal or a calm and cuddly baby.
About: I spent a lot of time with pets( mostly dogs) from taking care of close friends pets. With dogs I found better ways to behave them when they were with me, and considering I would take care of them a lot I managed to teach them tricks. I love spending time with animals of any kind. I had a cat when I was 13 and it was tricky because I got Lenny as an adult I would say. I learned how to manage litter boxes and the right food for both cat and dog. I do a lot of research when it comes to food so I know they have the right nutritions and I’m also skeptical when if comes or bagged food, so I do make my Own at times. I own 2 dogs now, one is a puppy and the other about a year and a half old. I’m also trying to save to go into MTC to study as a veterinarian to spend more time with animals. Taking care of pets fits in just perfectly. I currently have a part time job, but doing pet care on the side definitely helps balance my routine out and get some fresh air from working. In both client/my home, since I’m an early bird, I take them on walks to get them moving and give them time to potty, as I do with my dogs as well. I give them water and food, of course this varies on any directions given by the owner. They do get a lot of playtime and treats for good behavior. I make sure to let them potty at least every 2-3 hours out of habit from my pets.
“Chris is great! She really cares about the animals that she is caring for. She came to walk my dog Samson, and they had so much fun! We will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I will always go above & beyond to care for your pet. You will get updates and pictures whenever they are with me. I have experience in senior care as my girl is a little over 16 I have a pretty flexible schedule with work so can *generally* do most times needed. I am a CrossFit coach and as long as you don't need me during a class, I can stop by and take care/walk your pet =) I follow rules to the T when in other's homes. I cannot watch animals in my home unfortunately. I will send lots of updates to the parents and pictures!
“Natalie was a natural walking with my pup, Rosie. She asked meaningful questions about her care (as we are planning on rebooking for house sitting) and was warm and loving toward my dog, giving her praise, treats, and smiles. Rosie was so pleased with our walk, that she started following Natalie to her car as if she was sad to see her go! We will be booking with Natalie again and are very confident in her professionalism and communication. Thanks, Natalie!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs for family and friends. I love going on walks, playing fetch, and keeping pups happy and active, but I’m also happy to relax at home with lower-energy pets who prefer a quieter day. I have experience giving both cats and dogs oral medication and am comfortable following individual care instructions. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, care, and attention as if they were my own. Starting September 13, I’ll be working full-time Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 6 PM, so I’ll mainly be available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. (Until then my schedule is completely open!) My weekends are completely open and flexible! I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I’ll always do my best to make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in their home, I’ll focus on making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play fetch, spend time keeping them company, or simply relax with them if they prefer a quieter visit. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions you provide, while giving them plenty of attention and affection along the way. My goal is for your pet to feel safe and cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments since I was around 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets.

I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care.

About: I’ve taken care of my family dogs as well as my neighbors dogs since I was 11.I have walked large breed dogs that were about 100lbs and have also dealt with reactive dogs. I also have cat experience through my own pet and cat sitting for neighbors. I am a college student with a very flexible schedule and I am free during the afternoon and night. I am available all weekend including Fridays. I understand that pet safety is every owners biggest concern and I can ensure that your pet will be kept safe using my prior knowledge on how to handle cats and dogs.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life growing up, from all sizes and ages. I currently have an 80 lb German Shepard-Lab-retriever mix, and a 4 week old kitten. I’ve had adult cats, puppies, and fostered. I am currently not working and on summer break before I go back to college at the end of the month so I have lots of free time! I’m more than happy to do drop bys. I can take dogs on walks, let them outside and bring them back in, crate, give treats with commands, etc. Whatever you need! And lots of pets.
About: Neighbors and friends/family have trusted me with their fur-family members and I have cared for a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have also aided my own doggo through a seizure and helped transport him to the ER. I am currently a full time college student, however, I have many breaks and a flexible schedule that would be perfectly occupied by caring for your furry friend! I will always follow provided directions carefully and closely in regards to your fur-family member and will contact you beforehand if I have any questions/concerns. All in all, I treat every animal I come across as my very own because I know that’s how I would want my own doggo to be treated <3

About: I have loved animals since I was young. I’ve been taking care of my 12 year old dog since he was a puppy and needed to be bottle-fed. He’s now a senior dog and I still take great care of him. I trained him to do tricks as a puppy and my family has heavily relied on me to solely take care of my dog, especially when they leave me to take care of our dog when they travel for vacations. I am also a pre-vet student at James Madison University, pursuing a career involving animal care! I am working part time and getting scheduled minimum hours right now. I’m going away to college soon but before then I’d have plenty of free time to come take care of your fur-babies! I don’t board dogs at my home but I show respect to every home I enter and treat the home the way I would treat my own.
About: I provide a open free loving caring home for animals when you most need it! I have been dog sitting for a while and love to spend time and care and love more whenever I can.

As a sitter I promise to love and care for your babies as much as you would while you are away and provide the uppermost comfortable environment that you and your dog will feel comfortable with.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 419 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rushville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rushville. 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 Rushville.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rushville. On Rover:
- 95% 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.
