“Gillian is a dream! She was an instant hit with our pups and meeting her prior to the day the dogs needed her care put us at ease as her warm and welcoming personality instantly confirmed for us that she would take good care of our dogs.

About: I previously worked at a doggie daycare and pet boarding facility and have been pet sitting for several years. I am comfortable giving medications (both pills and injections) to both cats and dogs and other animals with proper instructions. I currently have a flexible schedule to care for your pets as needed. I'm very active and able to exercise your pet as much as possible, or just hang out and give them TLC if that's what they prefer! I'm available to watch your pet in your home so that they can stay in a place that they are comfortable and familiar with and stick with their normal routine!
About: I have owned cats my entire life and spent years volunteering with numerous animal rescue groups. I have been rescuing outdoor kittens since I was young and have had many pets from dogs to rabbits to guinea pigs to rats and mice and gerbals and reptiles and fish. I have countless years of experience with all types of animals from skittish cats to fear aggressive doggies and am looking forward to meeting your special furry family. I work full time from home so I have some flexibility during the day but only if you are super close to me. After work there is full flexibility. I do my best to make sure that your fluffy family is able to keep as much to their normal routine as possible. It is important that they feel comfortable while their family is away and I find that normal routine tends to help ease anxiety.
About: My whole life I have been surrounded by animals, from dogs, cats, to horses you name it. I was a member of two 4-H clubs where I would show my dog in agility and showed my horse in the Dutchess county fair. I am trustworthy, responsible and would care for your pet with the utmost attention. Neighbors, family and friends have relied on me to look over their animals. I am currently a full time college student so my schedule is a bit inconsistent, but I do respond ASAP and very willing to work out what works best for your pets. I can be trusted to care for your pet in your home. I have extensive experience with people working with their pets within their homes. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, cleaning up after, playing and interaction with pets, bathing/ brushing, organizing play space and putting toys away, purchasing food.
“Jack was awesome with my two dogs! He is very knowledgeable with his training background and offered great tips for training with my puppy. My boys were in great hands. Totally recommend!”
“After being referred by a friend, I inquired with Felicity to take our dog Beau as a client. She is so responsive and Beau loves her, he already can’t wait for his next walk ☺️”

“We are a retired couple who have a. recently adopted 13-month-old dog who is very active and energetic (we're still waiting for the DNA test results!). We hire dog walkers primarily to provide exercise for our little athlete, and Julianna provided a nice, brisk walk for Pippin. I especially appreciated that she listed the mileage, not just a map, of the walk--it was more meaningful in terms of discerning how "active" a walk she got. Thank you Julianna!”
“Lianna was wonderful! I knew my fur baby was being well taken care of. She knew I was anxious leaving my baby so she sent me multiple pictures of every outing so I could see how Tessie was? She was prompt, fed Tessie and made sure she took her medicine everyday for her chronic condition. I highly recommend Lianna if you are in need of pet sitter/walker. I have already booked her again for my next out of town trip when I cannot take my baby.”
“Tyasia is very good with my rambunctious 100lb Ruby. She handles Ruby very well and she even loves on my little dogs when she comes to walk Ruby. I would recommend Tyasia 100%. She sweet and kind to my pups.”

About: First time clients can use the promo code below for a discount on your first booking. DAWNA60239 My profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/dawna60239 I have taken care of dogs since I was in my early teens. In addition, through the years, I have also been a pet parent to a horse, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, tropical fish, goldfish, and hamsters. Family and friends routinely ask me for pet care advice since I have had pets for so many years and trained my own puppies through self teaching. I also have experience administering medications. I care for my own four dogs on a daily basis ranging in age from 3 to 17 and have raised them from puppies. We have play time and snuggle time at different times each day. There is plenty of extra time and love each day to care for your fur baby too. I have a fenced yard on just under 1/2 acre, and my four dogs love to romp and play which is part of their daily routine. They also love long walks or going for a car ride. They are all crate trained and feel that their crate is their special place, so the doors are always open for them to have their alone/rest time when they want to after play time (if they are not trying to claim a spot on the couch or in the recliner). One especially likes the couch and the others love to sleep in bed at night.
About: I’ve had a love for dogs since I was young, the past year I’ve had experience looking after my friends dogs for overnights or a simple walk. I’m always open to looking after them during family vacations or helping where I can with a mini walk break or a light jog! Boarding I am only available weekends however weekdays I have more flexibility to dog sit. Regularly scheduled bathroom break, plenty of time on walks, and maybe a pup cup! I do not have a fence in my own home, however I am used to long walks with dogs in high temperatures and understand the importance of balance and rest for dogs in extreme weather.

About: My name is Alexis craig, I am a 23 year old college student. I’ve had experience working with dogs for over 4 1/2 years now. I started out volunteering in the shelters , & got to work with many service dogs while being in the military. I have experience with many different breeds and sizes. I’ve learned how to deal with dogs with anxiety, aggression, and being timid. I believe dogs truly are mans best friend which is why I want to protect and love them the same way they do us. I am currently in school studying animal behavior, I find the animal mind in general fascinating. My goal is to one day open a no kill shelter where dogs have no time limit on how long they can stay and never have the fear of being neglected. While your pooch is with me they will have fun, learn new tricks , engage in activities that stimulate there mind and feel at ease in the comfort of my home or there own. I have a high energetic puppy who loves to play all day so high energetic puppies, and adult dogs are super welcomed. I currently work 3 days out of the week Sunday-Tuesday. That gives me plenty of time with your pup during the rest of the week and makes my availability very flexible Although I do not have a fenced backyard we have a gate we put up in the back when the dogs are outback to ensure there safety as well as the other dogs around the neighborhood

I couldn’t be happier with Tamara! She is incredibly dependable, flexible, and responsive, and it’s clear that she genuinely cares for your pet like they’re her own. I especially loved getting pictures and updates during her visit—it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!

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 Scotia. 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 Scotia after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Scotia. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
