“Janine was great! She was patient, punctual, friendly and very detailed in her reports. Pepe enjoyed his time with her and it was comforting to know that he was well taken care of.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for 7 years now, as well as taking care of my own. I watch family, friends, and neighbors dogs. I walk and play with them and give my dog baths. I am a college student so this is a perfect job for me! I have a lot of free time during the weekends and during the week I have a hour lunch break everyday and get done class at 2-2:30 most days, this is a perfect job for me. I am very observant and will keep the pets occupied. I can feed and crate them if necessary and make sure they get enough exercise during the time that I am with them.
About: My family has always had pets, between dogs, guinea pigs, and cats. I've been trusted in the past to house-sit for family and friends. I love being around animals, especially dogs and cats (I have 5 cats at home currently who I love so much). I also have experience with nastier dogs, as the owner of a particularly rude chihuahua. I am on summer break from college with a remote job, so my schedule is super flexible and open to you and your pets’ needs! I am a clean guest who will leave things nicer than I found them, so you can trust me to come into your home and take care of your pets without worrying about a mess left behind!
About: I have been around a bunch of different dogs throughout life. I have raised two puppies and took great care of a senior dog. I walk my dogs everyday. I have availability throughout the week. I have an open schedule so I am can be available most days of the week and weekends as well My two dogs play in the backyard that is fenced in. I always keep an eye on them to make sure they are safe outside.
“Tetiana was extremely responsive when we needed a last minute dog walker for our pup Luna. She came right away for a meet and greet and had a great rapport with Luna. We will definitely be using Tetiana for future walks with Luna!”
About: I’m familiar with almost every breed, and have been training them since I was 10 years old. My last dog was a therapy dog I took into nursing homes, but his time has past. :( I have all my time to spend with your pets. I am available weekends too, very flexible schedule. Will walk daily and play with them depending on age etc. I have a fenced in yard with no other pets. I am looking for a dog for myself to adopt and turn into a therapy dog, so I don’t mind training or corrective actions if wanted/ needed. I don’t like crates, but that’s me, and will respect your wishes. If at your house, you make the rules and I follow them, willing to FaceTime etc. whatever you need.
About: I've always had pets and currently I have 3 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 rabbits! My two German Shepherds and Cocker Spaniel keep me on my toes. I have experience with large and small dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, fish, horses, and chickens. I also have experience with senior animals and animals that need daily medication. I have several families that I have been regularly sitting for since 2017. I love seeing them grow! I do have a job but we can discuss availability to make sure I can be there for you and your pet! My mom is my partner and joins me on walks and home visits for safety! I love to meet with you beforehand so you and your pet are comfortable with me in your home.
About: Working from home gives me the opportunity to be closer to my pup and give him the love and attention he deserves. As your sitter you can rest assured that I will love and care for your pup as if he/she were my own! As a dog parent and someone newer to Rover I completely understand the hesitation and worry that comes with hiring someone unknown from the internet to care after your fur baby! I provide LOTS of updates, pictures and videos, as I want you to be comfortable and confident in your decision with me as your sitter! Although I am new to Rover, I am not new to dog sitting. I have lived the last 8 years of my life with dogs of approximately 70lbs or less. I often dog sit for family members while they are away on vacation. I strive to provide a comfy home environment for pups to stay while their owners are away. I work with house training pups and have also taught them basic commands. I can provide extra walks if needed for a pup that is learning to house train. With me your pup will get lots of love, attention, and cuddles! I strive to provide the level of service that I would look for and expect of a sitter! I hope to meet you and your pup soon! I’m currently working full time, I work from home with a good amount of flexibility so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I solely offer house sitting in the clients home. I do this because I prefer to meet with and sit dogs in their own spaces so that we are not disrupting their daily routine while their owners are away.
“Kadia is fantastic! She was punctual, respectful to my home and very kind to my rambunctious dog. She ensured his walk, treat and meal routines were followed and updated me consistently. She is experienced, safety focused and professional. Kadia will be my first choice for dog care after the great job she did and how comfortable my dog was with her while I was away! Thank you Kadia!!”

I currently work during the day; however, I maintain a flexible remote schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care needs, including walks and outdoor breaks, at various times throughout the day.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 3,108 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Shimerville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Shimerville. 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 Shimerville 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. 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 Shimerville. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
