About: My wife and I did pet sitting in Virginia for a little over 3 years before moving to Tennessee. Our pet parents loved us and recommended us highly. We have never met a dog or cat that didn't like us and some even called my wife the dog whisperer because she has a very calming demeanor. We have taken care of dogs from toy poodles to boxers (3 boxers at one time for the weekend). We love to play and snuggle and we will treat them like they are our own. I work nights but my wife is a stay at home grandmother and between us we have plenty of time to give your dog(s) or cat(s) the special time they need and we would love the chance to get to know yours. I am home full time so I have plenty of time to love on your pet(s) except when I have to go to other clients homes to love on theirs. I have a fenced in yard and take them out regularly and I go out with them to make sure they are safe and secure.
“Ama and Jacob and their family are amazing! They’ve done so well with our 4 month old pup! We’ve come home to a happy puppy every time! They’ve done a great job burning some of that puppy energy and we feel very comfortable with their care. Will definitely be rebooking!”

About: I've been around all kinds of animals since I was born, and have raised and cared for them since I was old enough to help. I have done drop-ins, pet sitting, dog-walking, and even farm sitting and dog massage for friends and family for years. I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own that I love so much. Others would argue I love animals more than people (they may be right about that, ha!) I am a retired massage therapist and self-published author with time on my hands (pun absolutely intended). Between writing chapters (or bouts of writer's block) I am open for pet care most of the day until the evening, with some night time hours available upon request :) If you are interested in massage for enhanced mobility and comfort (particularly for senior animals and those with hip and joint pain) feel free to inquire about dog/cat massage 💜 I am clean, compassionate, and considerate. I leave my clients' homes just as I found them - unless the pet has had an accident in which case I'll clean that up before leaving :) I am happy to love on my clients' pets as if they were my own, and take caring for them very seriously.

“Shawna went above and beyond caring for my fur babies! Treated my dog Andi with kindness, patience, and care, even offering to assist with my other pets that weren’t included in the booked service. Logistically, she was perfectly proactive, asking all the questions I hadn’t even thought of but would’ve came up during the visit. This was very helpful as I’m not always available in the moment so we were able to square everything away beforehand. Would book Shawna again if ever needed :)”

No matter how busy my schedule gets, I always make time to care for your pets. I ensure they’re fed, comfortable, and given the love and attention they deserve every day. Their well-being is a natural part of my routine, and I’m committed to keeping them happy and healthy In my home, every dog is treated with gentle care, patience, and consistent attention.

About: I've been helping care for friends' dogs on and off for several years through drop-in visits and daily care. My experience includes feeding, providing fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable, compassionate animal lover with hands on experience working in a veterinary clinic. That experience has given me a strong understanding of animal body language and safe handling. I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality and routine. I know every dog is different, and I believe they deserve patience, kindness, and plenty of love while you’re away. I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and lots of attention! I am currently taking classes online so i will be home all day with your fury little friend! I am very flexible and I can work around what works best for you.

About: I’m a firm believer that our pets are family and deserve to be treated with love and respect. I’ve had dogs in my family my entire life and Im currently a dog mom to a handsome Belgian Malinois and a beautiful german shepherd. I’ve had experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve also had experience caring for pets that are deaf, blind, and that require medications and even eye drops. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom, so I have the flexibility to check on your dogs throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, run, dog park, or even a casual hang out for a few hours. Because of my dogs, I’m very specific on if I’ll do overnights at my house. My boys are very dog friendly and love to play, but it can be a little much for other dogs. I prefer to take care of your pet in their home, so they are in a familiar and comfortable environment.
About: I've taken care of my own dog for the past 8 years, but before that I was raised around dogs and other animals. My grandparents and uncle always had multiple dogs for hunting, so I am very comfortable around and them and developed a love for dogs at a young age. I have dog sat on various occasions over the past 10 years, and I would love to continue to do it while I’m on the job search. I have a relatively flexible schedule throughout the week since I am pregnant and out of work for the moment, so in most cases would be more than willing to try and work something out. I am currently living in a house with my own dog so I would rather not be doing home services on my end but it is possible for well behaved dogs since my dog is very friendly.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, at one point we had three that only liked to be walked together. Right now I have a goofy fluff ball that is a bit overzealous when meeting new dogs. I’d love to help out with walks and just stopping by to check on your furry friends. I currently go to school, but I would love to provide walks and drop in visits throughout the day! Weekends are completely free for me. My dog is scared of a crate, so he usually hangs out with the tv on (big cartoon guy). We usually go on 3-4 walks a day, sometimes more. I’m happy to follow any instructions you have for your pet, since we know our own pets best!

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 Saint Elmo. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
