About: For the past 20 years, I've had the joy of owning and caring for three wonderful dogs, each with their own unique personality and needs. Through every stage of their lives—from playful puppies to their senior years—I learned the importance of patience, consistency, love, and attentive care. My experience has taught me how to recognize a fur-baby's individual needs, provide a safe and comfortable environment, and make sure they feel happy, loved, and secure while their families are away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I treat every fur-baby as if they were my own. I work full-time from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with Tuesdays and Saturdays off. Before work, I make time to care for my own dog by taking her outside, going for a walk, and spending quality time together. After work, we enjoy another walk, playtime, and plenty of attention. On my days off, I have a more flexible schedule and enjoy taking longer walks with my dog, playing with her, and keeping up with everyday household chores. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's routine and making sure they receive the love, exercise, and care they need. Whether it's a walk, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I'm committed to treating every pet like part of my own family. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat them with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own dog. I know that staying in their familiar environment helps pets feel safe and comfortable, so I do my best to keep their daily routine as consistent as possible. I'll follow your care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, fresh water, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I also respect your home, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so your pets feel loved while you're away and you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.
About: I grew up helping my grandparents take care of their rescues. Feeding, bathing, and walking them as well as vet trips. Because of growing up around animals I now have two dogs and three cats. I currently work 40 hours a week, however because my schedule has me working nights, and it’s a set schedule, it’s easy to help someone care for their pets. Growing up around dogs and dog sitting for a friend, I know how to treat dogs and know that all dogs are different. I’m willing to stick to a schedule if need be.
“Brittany was amazing with Luna! She was super sweet, reliable, and communicative, and I felt completely comfortable knowing Luna was in her care. She kept me updated and took such great care of her. I would definitely book with Brittany again and highly recommend her!”
About: I’m 47 years old and have been caring for pets my entire life. From my first kitten, snowball, at 5 years old, to my current dog and 3 cats. I grew up on a horse boarding stable and spent most of my childhood riding and showing horses. I wanted to be a veterinarian back then and would follow Dr. Scott all over when he’d visit. I never made it to vet, but spent several years in my 20’s working as a vet tech and groomers assistant. I have been sitting with Rover for several years now and love spending time with my fur friends! Don’t worry, my family is home with my babies when I’m gone on a stay! I’m currently on furlough and have open availability for sitting and walking. This is not currently applicable. May offer services in my home in the future I do not currently offer stays in my home. I have recently relocated to an apartment and though it works for my pets, it is not suitable for other pets
“This was our first time using Rover for dog walking. Kassy was the first to respond to my request and suggested a meet and greet right away. She was wonderful with my two dogs and minutes from my home. She was very responsive to my messages. I already sent a request for another set of dates. Thank you, Kassy, for treating my babies so well.”
“Super happy with Nanci! It was my first time booking her but definitely not the last. She followed all the instructions and my pup got along great with her. Totally recommend!”

About: I’ve loved animals from a young age! Growing up, my childhood dog had puppies, and I helped care for them for several months. That experience gave me hands-on experience with puppies and taught me the importance of patience, gentleness, and consistent care. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and want every animal to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away! As a part-time employee, I enjoy the flexibility of my schedule and do not have to work long shifts. While I do have some responsibility in singing at my church, this is not a weekly occurrence. I’m committed to taking great care of the pets in the clients’ homes, making sure they have a private and friendly environment. I really enjoy spending time with the animals and giving them comfort, but I also make sure to respect the owners’ space and trust that I can keep their home and their pets safe.
About: Whenever a family friend would go out of town she would always reach out to me first to go check on her 4 dogs, checking their bowls, if theres any poo to clean up, and of course give them love and attention before heading back out. I have a shih tzu at home which is my family dog 8 years old now, a bearded dragon, and a parakeet, they're my babies. I currently work 2 jobs, one of them is a CNA at Encompass Health in which I self schedule. The other is at Altitude Trampoline Park, as a cashier and party host. In total I usually work 3-4 days out of the week. It varies. On my days off I am open to come care for fur babies. In my home, I take care of my shih tzu taking him out first thing in the morning, then feeding him, and keeping him company. He is so nosey he always needs to follow me or my mom around and requires nap time. Sometimes if he allows me I take him out for a walk, he’s very picky so he’ll want to walk down 3 houses then drag me back home. With my parakeet and bearded dragon I give them attention, feed them, treats, and hold them depending on how social they’re feeling.
About: Hi, I'm Johnnie! I have a background in Human Services and Counseling, so attentiveness and genuine care come naturally to me. I've helped look after family and friends' pets and understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home. I specialize in house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I show up on time, send regular photo updates, and treat every pet like my own. Looking forward to meeting yours! 🐾 Your pet is my top priority throughout the day and even at night no matter what! If I eat your pet eats if I go out for a walk most certainly your pet will be walking with me! Your pet will always align into my schedule perfectly synced. In my home I only hope that I am provided a thorough explanation of what type of care and personality your pet has so that I may adjust myself accordingly. Having the supplies needed to care for your pet is also a huge relief and is appreciated. In your home (should you allow me to) caring for your pet in your home is right next to caring for your pet in the president's own house, I'll settle for nothing but giving my best for you and your pet.

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

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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.
