“Ana does a great job with Daisy! Daisy loves to go on walks with her. We've had Ana walk Daisy many times and we are very happy with her services. I definitely recommend her 😊”
“Sara has been a life-saver for Liam! She was able to accommodate a meet and greet and she and Liam hit it off right away! Liam is epileptic and she was very diligent asking questions about what the plan is if he has a seizure and making sure his emergency medication were avaliable during their walks.She is kind, patient and knowledgeable in her care of animals. Will definitely book again❤️”
About: Hi, I’m Lindsey! I started bringing home strays at age 5, began pet sitting at 12, and have spent 20+ years working in animal rescue. I have a special place in my heart for anxious and senior dogs. I understand that not every pet is immediately comfortable in a new situation, and I have the patience, experience to help them settle in and feel safe. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits up to 4x a day. No matter the service, you can count on frequent updates and photos so you’re never left wondering how your fur baby is doing. They aren’t just clients to me — they’re some of my best friends. Pet care isn’t something I fit into my routine — it is my routine. I’m currently rebuilding my home organizing business, which means I have a flexible schedule and the ability to give pets the time and attention they truly deserve, rather than squeezing them in between a 9 to 5. Several days a week I volunteer at Homeless Pets Foundation, so animals are genuinely part of my everyday life. At home I’m the primary caregiver for three dogs — managing medications, walks, feeding, and vet appointments for my own dog and two others whose owners travel frequently and trust me completely to care for them as they would themselves. Simply put — I’m an animal person living an animal life. Your pet won’t be an afterthought in my day. They’ll be the point of it. My number one priority is keeping your pet’s routine as intact as possible. Animals feel safe through consistency, and I take that seriously — same feeding times, same walks, same rules. Your pet shouldn’t feel like anything is off just because you’re away. When a pet is anxious or unsettled I slow everything down and meet them where they are. I’ll sit with them however they’re most comfortable, talk to them, offer treats, brush them, play with them, or take them for a walk to burn off that nervous energy. I even wear lavender essential oil — a small touch, but aromatherapy can go a long way toward helping an anxious animal feel calm and safe. For pets that need medications I’m experienced with administering them reliably and on schedule — it’s something I do regularly and take very seriously. Throughout every visit you’ll hear from me. Photos, videos, text updates — I want you to be able to see for yourself that your pet is happy, comfortable and in good hands. I am currently pursuing my pet first aid and CPR certification, because when it comes to the animals in my care I want to be prepared for anything.
About: I work full time from home, and am available to keep an eye on your pup all day! I walk dogs every two hours, and have plenty of toys, and a a 1/2 acre yard. I live in a cul de sac with two other homes— it is very quiet and there is tons of walking room. I have a full basement and garage—- plenty of space for dogs to run around. I have a kennel if needed, but I am completely ok with dogs on the furniture. They love to sleep in the bed with me! As long as your dog is dog friendly and potty trained (accidents are ok but I try to avoid anything on the furniture) then this will be an easy stay. I have two small dogs that love to play! I can walk your dogs every two hours. I can feed on whatever schedule makes sense. Whatever you need… just let me know, please and we can make it work. I have a huge yard and two fur babies to keep your dogs company. I have a crate, if needed. Im available at home to keep an eye on your pup.
About: I have been taking care of my family & friends pups since I can remember and enjoy every second! I have worked with puppies less than 8 weeks of age all the way to senior dogs of 16 years and up! I have experience with working with multiple dogs at once and have one dog of my own who I treat like my child and spoil very much! My schedule changes every week but I only work three days a week so I am pretty flexible and am willing to adhere to any needs! I will make sure to keep a clean and safe space for your pets and always make sure they are taken for a bathroom break in a routinely manner! We will have plenty of time for play but also time to rest when the time comes to it!
About: I love both dogs and cats and have cared and loved them for many years. My friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me over the years to care for their beloved furry family members and that is just what I intend to do with yours! I work full time Monday-Friday so I am available evenings (after 5pm) on weekdays. I am available Saturday and Sunday all day and all evening. I am always very cautious when walking dogs and make sure to pay attention to my surroundings at all times. Your dog or cat will be very well cared for.
About: Hi! I’m Jessica and I have been dog and cat sitting for years whether for my neighbor when i was a kid or as an adult for people in town when they go on vacation! All pets welcome. I just moved to Marietta in May and nanny part time. I have lots of experience pet sitting in my home town for 10 years or so. So i am free for any kind of sitting. I do not offer boarding in my home due to not disturbing my cats, but i have lots of experience working for friends and family in their homes and making sure their animals are on their normal routine in their safe place!
“Caylen has been absolutely wonderful with Xena! She is reliable, punctual, and incredibly attentive. Xena adores her and gets so excited for her midday walks every day. I also really appreciate how communicative Caylen is. She always lets me know if she notices anything or if something happens during their walk. She is so kind and caring, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing Xena is in such great hands. I am truly grateful for everything she does and highly recommend her!”
“Evelyn was so great with my dog. She was always early, and took him on a nice walk and gave him the treats that were provided. She was great with my 3 year old cockapoo, and he loves her!! I will be booking with Evelyn again for sure!!!”
About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life. I currently have 2 cats named Bellatrix and sprig. I also work for a pet lodge place!! I used to work with, up to, 300 dogs a day!!! so I am more then qualified to care for your pet!! my job was to walk, feed, brush, bathe, trim nails, and clean ears of multiple dogs a day!! I would like to preference that I do work, typically on the weekends, and sometimes I'm there late I work a main job. My weeks change so I either work Tues-Fri or Wed-Sat. I work at a vet clinic, so I might be able to bring them to work with me. I do work long hours but depending on location, I can also drop off and check on them I have a huge yard, but it's unfenced, but walking will be amazing, so leashes needed please!!! I have a great neighborhood that's great for walks I doubt anything will go wrong, but if it does, there is an animal hospital a 5 min drive from me
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my lifelong love for animals, my hands-on experience, and my ability to care for pets of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and temperaments! 🐾❤️ I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a special place in my heart for both cats and dogs. Since I was 14, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and working at doggy daycare facilities. During my time at doggy daycares, I’ve cared for everything from large Great Danes and energetic Pit Bull mixes to tiny pups with big personalities! These experiences have taught me how to understand different behaviors, recognize body language, and provide safe, attentive care. I’m also very comfortable caring for multiple animals at once! Whether you have several dogs, multiple cats, or a household with both, I’m happy to help. My doggy daycare experience has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while making sure every animal receives the individual attention, patience, and love they deserve. I also have a special love for cats, especially those who may be shy, fearful, independent, or a little temperamental! Growing up, I’ve helped feral cats gradually become comfortable living indoors as loving house cats. Through those experiences, I’ve learned that earning an animal’s trust takes time, consistency, kindness, and patience. If your kitty is a little feisty, nervous around strangers, or prefers their personal space, that’s perfectly okay! I understand how to recognize signs of stress, respect boundaries, and allow them to become comfortable with me at their own pace. The same goes for dogs who may be anxious, energetic, or need a little extra reassurance. I believe what truly makes me different is that I don’t expect every animal to behave the same way. Every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m experienced with feeding, dog walking, playtime, litter box cleaning and maintenance, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I also offer house-sitting services, so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment while I make sure your home is respected, tidy, and well cared for. Above all, I’m reliable, dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether you have one cuddly kitty, a house full of energetic pups, or a mix of furry personalities, I’ll do my very best to make sure everyone feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pets are family, and I promise to treat them with the same kindness, patience, and love that I give my own! 🐶🐱💕 I’m currently attending school online, which gives me flexibility with my schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs! I’m always happy to discuss availability and find a schedule that works best for you and your furry family members! 💖 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so I always do my best to follow their usual schedule, whether that includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, or plenty of cuddles! I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes and will make sure everything stays clean, tidy, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your beloved pets and your home. Communication is extremely important to me! I’ll happily provide regular updates, pictures, and messages throughout my visits so you can see how your furry family members are doing. Whether they’re enjoying a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or relaxing at home, I want you to feel reassured knowing they’re happy and receiving plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible, knowing your pets and home are in caring, reliable, and dependable hands! 🐶🐱❤️
“Katie did an outstanding job walking our two dogs. Her level of responsibility was truly commendable, and it was evident that our dogs absolutely loved her! Not only did she provide us with daily updates, but she also shared pictures of their time together. Additionally, Katie went above and beyond by keeping an eye on our cat, despite having a neighbor feeding him. We were genuinely impressed with her care and attention to detail. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Katie and fully trust her to walk our dogs again the next time we're away.”
About: I grew up with lots of dogs and pets. I am very comfortable around them. I began pet sitting and house sitting as a side job a few years ago. I am currently a KSU senior. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule. I have been looking for ways to create more connections in the community. I want to love on and cuddle your fur baby! I can follow any pet/house rules but will love and care for your pet just how you do.
About: I have been taken care of pets for 6 years now on my own. I have an abundance of experience in doing overnight stays, where I am given a list/pet procedures to follow about when and how to feed, walk/take out, etc. cats and dogs of various sizes. I also have experience walking small to medium sized dogs. Additionally, I have lived with cats and dogs of various sizes my entire life, where I was often responsible for taking care of them. I am currently available for pet care on the weekends any time between 9am and 7pm as well as on Fridays from 6pm to 7pm. I have years of experience taking care of pets of clients in their home. I always follow the instructions given to me and make sure there is adequate communication at all times.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sandy Plains
Karen is a wonderfully reliable dog walker. Our dog absolutely loves her and gets excited every time she arrives. She consistently goes above and beyond, treating our pup like one of her own. We'd recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog.
Edward has been absolutely wonderful with my little Noah! ☺️ He is so sweet, kind, accommodating, and dependable. Noah took to him immediately, which gave me such peace of mind. Edward is always prompt and communicates throughout the visit, letting me know how Noah is doing, whether he ate and used the bathroom, and sending the sweetest pictures from their adventures. He took Noah on a great walk and gave him time to explore the neighborhood instead of rushing him. Edward also offered doggy daycare, which has been such a blessing it gives Mommy a much needed full-day break while Noah gets to play with his new friends, Izzy and Julio, enjoy his walks, and stay on his regular feeding schedule. Noah came home happy after having such a great time! I recently broke my ankle and haven’t been able to walk my little baby or take him outside to play the way I normally would. That has caused me a lot of worry and anxiety, but Edward has truly eased my mind. Knowing Noah is receiving such attentive, loving care means more to me than I can express. Edward’s services have been completely worth it and exactly what we needed. We truly appreciate him and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely wonderful with dogs! 🩵🐾

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 Sandy Plains. 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 Sandy Plains after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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 Sandy Plains. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
