“Anke has taken such great care of my Doberman Hela. She walked her and spent quality time with her while I traveled. It was such a relief to see Hela happy and relaxed while I was away. Thank you Anke!”
“Yaisa was awesome for walking Toko and Arya when I was away at work during the day! She showed up on time and would take them for a nice long walk through the neighborhood. My pups were surprisingly well behaved with her and I loved all the pictures she would send me! They always looked happier on days after she visited. I will definitely book again when I need someone to check in with them if I'm out on a day trip or any long work weeks.”
“Nicole has been an absolute lifesaver. I recently broke my leg and have been completely unable to take Quattro out for his walks, but Nicole stepped right in and made everything seamless. She is incredibly accommodating, always on time, and completely reliable. What stands out the most is how conscientious she is about Quattro's safety and well-being. She treats him with such care that I have complete peace of mind while I’m stuck at home recovering. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and highly responsible person to look after your dog, I cannot recommend Nicole enough.”
“Sydney has walked my dog, Louis, on several occasions. His interaction with Louis is very positive and Louis is excited when Sydney comes. Sydney has always been on time and sends pictures during the walk to let me know that he has Louis. I definitely recommend Sydney!”
“Kate was awesome with my Golden Retriever and I would definitely hire her again. Reliable, communicative, trustworthy, professional and friendly. My dog was excited to go on walks with her!”

I have the normal dog walking accessories. When I am out walking. Leashes, treats, dog bags and water are all items I bring for an everyday walk.

“My dog adores Willa! She is so great about checking in, following up, sending a picture of my happy pup from his walks. His food and water are always refreshed and refilled. I will continue booking walks with Willa.”
“Christopher was timely and communicated well. Sunny took to Christopher immediately during our meet & greet. I had no worries during my business trip. Will definitely hire Christopher again!”
About: While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for dogs! I grew up in a home that always had dogs, so caring for them has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs of my own, which means I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks and feeding to playtime, basic routines, and lots of affection. I currently have a flexible schedule, so plenty of opportunities to walk your pup! During the hotter days I always feel safer walking in the earlier and later ends of the day to keep paws safe and happy. I have a new puppy at home. Due to this I will not be offering in home services. Apologies for the inconvenience. Thank you for understanding.
“Skye took care of my Shiba for the past week. She was reserved during the meet & greet, but she had incredible attention to detail and care. Not only did she take regular (and amazing) photos every day, she made sure to brush him regularly and feed him cold water from the fridge. It really felt like she was treating him as her own. Given Shiba commonly act like cats, if you have a dog or a cat, i have no doubt that she’ll take great care of them!”

About: Hi! My name is Alexa, and I absolutely love animals! I have grown up around pets and currently have a cat and a German Shepherd of my own. I also previously had an English Mastiff, so I’m very comfortable caring for large dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they can sometimes need. I have experience dog walking for many different families, doing drop-in visits for both dogs and cats, and house sitting for dogs, cats, and even chickens! I love getting to know each pet’s individual personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. While I haven’t personally cared for every type of animal, I am responsible, trustworthy, and very willing to carefully follow any instructions you provide. I’m always happy to learn about your pet’s specific routine, needs, and preferences. I recently graduated high school with a 4.67 GPA and will be attending Washington University in St. Louis next year. I’m dependable, organized, and take my responsibilities seriously, but most importantly, I genuinely love animals and would treat your pets as if they were my own. I work a daily job from noon until the evening, so I’m most available in the mornings. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care before noon, especially if your pet is sensitive to heat and only takes morning walks! I may not be able to personally stay with a pet 24/7 every day, but I can accommodate pets who are comfortable being alone for part of the day. For boarding, I also have family members in my home who can be with your pet while I’m at work, so your pet will have someone around and will not be left alone for the entire day. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific schedule and needs beforehand to make sure I can provide the right level of care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are extremely important to me. I have experience caring for dogs and cats and understand how important it is to follow each pet’s individual routine, instructions, and boundaries. I have a large, securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and get some energy out. I also have an older German Shepherd and a cat, so I’m very familiar with having multiple pets in the home and making sure everyone is comfortable. I’m responsible, attentive, and trustworthy, and I will always follow your instructions carefully. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saratoga
Morgan was quick to respond to my sitter request. She met my dog at her meet and greet visit before the sit date and her communication is clear and easy. She provided update messages and pics after each sit event. I think that my dog was happy to see her at every visit. I would hope that she is available for the future sitter needs.
Anke has consistently walked Odin twice a week for a year and a half. She is super attentive and always shares feedback both written and verbal about their walks. Our neighbors have commented as well (unsolicited) about what a great job she does with our baby. She’s super attentive and caring and can handle our dog well even though he’s reactive with other big dogs. Anke is a gem!
First time booking with Adrienne. Everything worked out great, she easily accommodated a last minute change to add on another day of walking Pepper. I also had ants appearing in my house near his food the day before the booking but Adrienne took care of this and made sure that the food bowl was always fresh and protected from the ants. She is reliable and easy to communicate with.

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 Saratoga. 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.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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.

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.
