“Ginger has been amazing with my dog! Her availability is amazing and she has helped me a ton when it comes to last minute bookings. My schedule at the hospital is crazy and I often work longer hours and I know that my dog is being cared for and loved by her when I am not home. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jillian has been walking my quirky and sometimes shy greyhound regularly for a couple months now and she is the absolute best. On time, thorough, understanding, flexible, competent, communicative, knowledgeable. I don’t trust my dog to everyone, but I feel 10000% confident that she’s in good hands with Jillian on their walks!”
“Bethany is an amazing person for your dog! When it comes to walking, she took her time with my dog and gave her so much love. My dog is usually anxious around new people, but immediately took to Beth! I would 100% recommend her for dog walks, house stays, and more.”
“I really like wolf. I have used them twice . So kind . Thanks for loving my dog and being so nice to her when I am busy at work caring for patients . You take a huge weight off my back : knowing my best friend Storm is being well cared for.”
“Megan has taken good care of our older pup who has a lot of quirks and particular needs. She communicates well, shows up promptly, and has patience when walking with our 17 year old girl.”
“I have three dogs with different needs because of age and temperament. I was most worried about my small, shy dog, but he took a treat from Karen on the first meeting!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 3 years of professional experience working as a pet care and doggie daycare attendant. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities — especially large breeds and high-energy dogs. I currently have 3 pitbull mixes and cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, patient, and experienced caring for your pets. I also have experience administering medications and caring for pets with different needs and temperaments. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, playtime, or just someone to give them extra love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’m happy to work with what makes them most comfortable. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love spending time with animals — honestly, dogs are usually easier than people 😂 I’m a stay at home mom with a 3 year old in pre school. I have very flexible availability and availability most days of the week! I have 3 dogs and 2 cats as well I’ve worked with animals in my past and I’m a huge animal lover! I’ve worked at 2 doggy day cares and also have pet care experience
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 years old. I am often asked by coworkers of family to house sit during their vacations. I have pet sat dogs, cats, fish, and even chickens! I am comfortable waking, giving medication, and cuddling (my personal favorite), whatever your pup needs! I have two dogs of my own. One of my dogs is a senior and is high need due to his bone cancer. He requires daily medication and will until we are able to remove the leg. My other pup is a rambunctious lab, who is high drive and needs daily stimulation so he doesn’t anger his older brother. I often take him on walks or use the pond near our home to tire him out! I am used to house sitting in all types of homes. If your pup needs a daily walk I am can do that. If they’re an outside pup we can take a walk or even a hike! I stay at the home and don’t leave often. I ask that a physical copy of directions are left so that I can give the 100% proper care and able to contact through phone as well!
“Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison”
“Alex was wonderful! My dogs trusted him immediately and looked very happy on the photos. He was very responsive, responsable and kept me updated every day. I’m so grateful with him. I highly recommend his job. 100%. Thank u Alex !!”
“Walked my dog last minute on NYE. I frankensteined some directions to get in our building and walk the dog and Alexis did a fantastic job and was super communicative. Would recommend again!”
About: I have loved being around dogs big or small since I was a little girl! I have been a paid sitter for family friends for the last 2 years. Right out of high school in 2021, I started working for a dog daycare for almost a year and it was my favorite job ever! I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I am a hairstylist and I am self employed so I make my own schedule. I work Monday through Thursday 10-7 (sometimes Fridays and Saturdays 10-5). Depending on my client schedule, I can take breaks so I can take your dog(s) out to potty or feed them. I work in Florence, Ky. I can make plenty of time for your pups throughout the week! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own home and stick to their normal routine. I’ll carefully follow all care instructions, keep your home clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to treating both your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: I’m currently studying to be a vet assistant. Since I was a kid I’ve loved animals and have accumulated lots of knowledge over the years. I’ve been trusted to care for many family pets. I’m very calm and patient, and I’m excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets as well! I’m currently working part-time, early mornings. Mid-week, afternoons and weekends are the best times for me to care for and play with your babies! I live in a very quiet home and a very quiet neighborhood. We can sit and relax while I knit or easily walk down to the nearby observatory, park, or town square.
About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a big yard that's about 70 yards deep and I have a secured lead in both front and back yards. For added safety, I attach an air tag to your pets collar. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. I'm not a fan of dog parks. I prefer to select my walking path to ensure your pets safety. I live alone.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was three years old. Our household has once consisted of four dogs at once and I loved it. I’ve taken care of dogs as young as eight months to 14 years old. My experience consists of grooming, potty training, basic training, feeding & water, medication management, and even changing diapers in later stages of life. I’ve also taken care of neighbors pets, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and even hedgehogs. I have experience of checking in on the dogs and feeding them throughout the day to staying at the house for hours to provide exercise and company for their furry friend. I also have over a year of volunteer experience at local dog shelters. I have a flexible job that allows me to be able to do Rover in my free time. I currently live in a duplex on the first floor. It is a spacious two bedroom apartment and has access to a backyard. The backyard is fenced in with a mix of a privacy fence and a chain link fence. The backyard is on the smaller side but still has space for the dogs to run around and have space to play fetch. I have two friendly dogs at my apartment that would love to meet your pet. We spend a lot of our time playing or snuggling on the couch. We go for walks around our neighborhood and we play fetch h in the backyard. I have a young energetic dog that loves to play and I have an older dog that loves to get the zoomies and then become a couch potato. When I am away, my dogs stay in their crates. For your furry friend, I can use a doggy gate to give them some extra space since they are in a new environment. I can keep them in my kitchen which will give them enough space to walk around and lay in their bed. My dogs takes medicine twice a day so I already have a routine for giving medications to my dogs. I would be happy to walk your furry friends with my dogs or by themselves if that is your preference. We also have plenty of dogs toys ranging from stuffed animals to the Bark Super Chewer toys, if your dog likes to destroy toys, like mine does. I have two beagles so I am used to food driven dogs that only listen if there are treats involved. I also have my garbage secured underneath the cabinets with baby locks on them so no animal can get to it. I also am within 20 minutes of a 24 hours emergency vet if your dog was to ever show any concerning signs.
“Payton is not only sweet but also punctual and knowledgeable about dog behavior. She followed our instructions meticulously and kept us updated with excellent communication. We look forward to continuing to work with her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,083 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ryland Heights. 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 Ryland Heights. 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 Ryland Heights.

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 .

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.
