“Justin has been wonderful in walking my 2 large dogs. They would sit at the door and wait when they knew he was coming. He was very thorough, friendly and polite. I would highly recommend him.”
About: I currently live with two cats. I have taken care of dogs and cats in the past for family and friends who needed someone reliable. No dog is too big or too small for me to handle. I am currently working part-time, so my schedule varies week to week. I am highly organized and a proactive communicator, so you will always know my exact availability before we finalize any care! I have a strong bond with each of my pets. I care for them and make sure they have what they need to live a happy life.
About: I’ve Worked with dogs all my life and love every minute of it! I am a dog groomer for my full time job, but do that from home. I worked as a daycare/trainer manager for three years and learned all about dog body language, correct ways to introduce, and learned how to prevent fights between any two dogs. I can administer any medication; pills, insulin, subQ fluids, etc. I have a fully fenced yard with a kiddie pool and shade in the summer and beds to relax in the sun in the winter. My house is fully dog proof! No carpet, dog door, and separate areas outside for different play styles and sizes of dogs. For sleeping arrangements each dog will have their own kennel. I also feed them in their own kennels to prevent any resource guarding or fighting over food. I DO USE KENNELS/CRATES for sleeping, eating, and unsupervised time. I have 3 very friendly dogs of my own that are very well behaved. When I’m not working, everyone gets to be free and have a great time!! I work from home, which means I’m here 98% of the time. I have dogs of my own so having others is just part of the lifestyle I chose and love. Dogs are introduced to other dogs slowly and based completely on their comfort level; some dogs are all go when meeting playmates, others aren’t sure so we take that in to account when your dog comes here. I always introduce them to my solid “demo dog” first to see how they’ll react, then go from there. I do not leave dogs out playing together unattended - if I have to leave then everyone goes in a kennel.
About: I’ve had my own dog for 5 years and have loved taking care of anybody’s dogs at any point I can! I have loved dogs since I knew how to walk and love meeting all different kinds of puppies! I’m currently working two part time jobs but I’m in college away from home in need of some extra cash! I will try and make whatever schedule work! I live in a student living apartment building for the next few months so I will only be able to take care of pets at your home unfortunately :(
About: I have 4 years of animal care experience, but my love and passion for animals started long before that, when I was a kid. Caring for animals has always been something close to my heart, and I’m passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I always strive to provide the best care possible and treat every animal as if they were my own! I am currently working part time which allows me more time for me to take care of your animals! I will make sure I have the proper time to care for your pets. I am unable to care for pets in my own home, but I will be able to give your pet(s) everything they need. Just let me know and I will do my best to care for your pets!
“Cindy exceeded our expectations! Not only was she prompt and responsive, she posted lots of videos and photos that showed she really cares about her pet “clients.” Sherbie trusted her immediately!”
About: There has always been a special spot in my heart for dogs. I got my first dog at 3 and my second at 14. I have helped trained them. Along with that I have walked dogs over the years I love going on walks for 1 of my workouts so walking dogs is perfect. I also have a lot of free time where most of my classes are online. I have a fenced years and currently have no dogs living in my home with me. It is a very safe area and the dog will be in great hands.

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 Shivwits. 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. 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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
