About: I have experience working in an animal shelter so I know how to care for and manage animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have also ridden horses from a very young age so no animal is too small or large for me! I am currently a part-time student so I have a flexible schedule but I am most available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, as well as on the weekends. I provide them loving and attentive care by following each pet’s routine, keeping them comfortable and safe, maintaining a clean environment and by of course giving them plenty of affection.
About: Hello my name is Tabetha I am a vet assistant graduate from Northcoast medical training academy 2016. I am employed at Akron Medina Veterinary Hospital and Pet Resort. I do live an apartment but there are lots of woods & trails to go on long walks as your dog needs. I also can provide other services such as nail trims, ear cleaning, and bathing. I am home all day and your pup will never be alone. I can also do drop in visits when needed. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby when you are away. I do work full time, I am off Fridays and weekends and I could do a visit before work 7:00am and be there right after work 5:00pm or if I am doing overnight. I would only be gone those hours. 7:00-5:00pm I can easily crate your dog if needed. I do live an apartment but I can take your dog on long walks though the parks.
About: I have taken care of pets with all sorts of different needs, all different ages, all different sizes, and all different energy levels. I love dogs and cats!!

I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m happy to follow your specific instructions and routines. I’ll also respect your home by keeping things clean, secure, and just as I found them. I want you to feel comfortable!
“Keerie is a great dog walker for our Mabel. Mabel loves her weekly long walks and snuggles and I love Keerie’s responsiveness, timeliness and communication. Keerie is a true animal lover who I highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m Mariah, a dedicated animal care professional with over two and a half years working at an animal sanctuary, where I handle a wide range of species from birds of prey to reptiles. I have also worked for a year at an emergency animal clinic as a vet's assistant, helping to treat dogs ans cats. Beyond the sanctuary and vet, I’ve volunteered with my local Humane Society, walking dogs and socializing cats, and have been a lifelong pet owner of dogs, cats, reptiles, and small animals like hamsters. I also regularly house- and pet-sit for friends and coworkers, so I understand how important it is to provide loving, dependable care while you’re away. I’m responsible, respectful of your home and pet’s needs, and passionate about keeping animals happy and safe. I’d love to help care for your furry, feathered, or scaly family members with personalized attention and kindness! I currently work full-time at an animal ER, Sunday, Tuesday, Friday from 10am-10pm and volunteer at an animal sanctuary on Thursdays from 9am-5pm. That means I have availability all day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays, as well as Thursday evenings as needed for pet care. I am also available for early morning visits before work and I’m a night owl by nature, so late-night visits or overnight stays work well for me too! I love fitting pet care into my week—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and find fulfilling. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both their animals and their space with the utmost respect. I follow any instructions carefully, keep the environment clean, and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, enriched, and well-cared-for. I’m attentive to routines—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, or playtime—and I always make sure pets get the affection and attention they need while you're away. I also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands.
About: With 10+ years of hands-on clinical veterinary experience, combined with a lifetime of growing up around, caring for, and working with animals, I bring over a decade of cumulative experience in veterinary medicine, pet care, and animal husbandry. My experience with animals began long before my professional veterinary career and includes dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, cows, horses, and many other animals. This lifelong connection has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care, handling, and well-being that extends far beyond the clinical setting. Throughout my veterinary career, I have consistently pursued continuing education through seminars, conferences, specialized training, and additional coursework to continually expand my knowledge and strengthen my clinical skill set. I have maintained **BLS and ALS CPR certification since 2020** and have been **Fear Free Certified since 2018**, along with holding numerous additional certifications, continuing education achievements, and awards earned throughout my career. The majority of my professional veterinary experience has been concentrated in **surgery, emergency medicine, and intensive care/ICU**, where attention to detail, critical thinking, and the ability to recognize subtle changes in a patient's condition are essential. These experiences have taught me to be highly observant and proactive, with a strong understanding of early warning signs and indicators that may suggest a patient is developing a problem. I take pride in being attentive to the small details that can make a significant difference in an animal's outcome. Pets are my passion, and pet people are my people. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both animals and their families and believe exceptional veterinary care should be built on compassion, communication, trust, and a little fun along the way. Whether I am caring for a critically ill patient, assisting with surgery, supporting a fearful/nervous pet, or simply making an animal's day a little better, I bring the same level of dedication and enthusiasm to every patient. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, valued, and well cared for—and every pet parent deserves to know that their beloved companion is in capable, compassionate hands. Your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and compassion I can provide—and we'll have some fun along the way. I am comfortable and experienced in caring for patients across a wide range of ages, conditions, and levels of acuity. My clinical experience includes the safe administration and management of oral, injectable, and topical medications, as well as monitoring patients receiving ongoing or complex treatment plans. I am comfortable working with advanced and late-stage disease, chronic and complex medical conditions, hospice and end-of-life care, geriatric patients, pediatrics, neonates, and emergency cases. My background in surgery, emergency medicine, and ICU/critical care has strengthened my ability to remain calm and attentive in high-pressure situations while recognizing subtle changes in a patient's condition and responding appropriately. I understand that each patient requires an individualized approach, and I am committed to providing compassionate, thorough, and attentive care whether a patient is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, beginning life as a neonate, facing an emergency, or approaching the end of life. I am equally comfortable providing hands-on nursing care, assisting with treatment plans, communicating observations to the veterinary team, educating and supporting pet parents, and advocating for the patient's comfort and overall quality of life. Pet care has been a huge part of my daily and weekly routine for more than 10 years. Whether I’m working in veterinary medicine or caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m accustomed to making animal care a priority and building it naturally into my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, routines, and individual needs. For me, providing consistent, attentive care isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve built my life around and truly love doing. I approach every pet as an individual and tailor my care to their specific personality, routine, medical needs, and comfort level. Whether I am caring for a pet in my own home or in a client's home, my priority is always to provide a **safe, calm, consistent, and loving environment** that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies and kittens, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, medically complex patients, and animals requiring medications or additional monitoring. I can administer **oral, injectable, and topical medications**, follow detailed feeding and treatment instructions, monitor changes in behavior or condition, and recognize when something may warrant veterinary attention. My background in emergency, critical care, ICU, and surgery has made me particularly attentive to subtle changes that may indicate a problem. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect that I am also caring for someone's home and follow their instructions closely. I maintain established feeding, medication, exercise, potty, sleep, and enrichment routines whenever possible. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel connected while they are away. When caring for pets in my own home, I focus on creating a secure and comfortable environment while considering each animal's temperament, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs. I believe pets shouldn't simply be "watched" while their owners are away—they should receive attention, companionship, enrichment, affection, and quality care. Ultimately, my goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and compassionate hands.

I would take them on at least one walk minimum whether staying at my apartment or taking care of them at yours. The walks can vary from an half an hour to an hour or more depending on the dog and how your dog is feeling. I always ask their feeding schedule and an dietary restrictions. At my home, I have intellectual toys as well as just typical toys. If allowed, dogs and cats are more than welcome to sleep in bed with me. I allow animals on my furniture and have locks on cabinets to ensure they cannot get anything to harm them. I keep treats and food at my apartment. For walks, I have a hands free leash that goes around waist, so that way there is not a chance that the leash slips out of my hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Silver Lake
I had a great experience with Emily walking my dog, Rocket! She let me know when she arrived, sent me photos, and provided a detailed summary of how the walk went. Because the conditions near my house meant Rocket could not walk a long distance, Emily spent the remainder of the time allotted for the walk working on some command training - she was very thoughtful in asking me beforehand to confirm what commands I was working on with Rocket. I'll be happy to book with Emily again!
Alexa does a wonderful job with my six month old German shepherd mix puppy! She’s very attentive to my dog and obviously enjoys spending time with her. She takes her for walks and then plays with her in the yard to tire her out. I’ve been very pleased. She’s also very punctual 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 Silver Lake. 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 Silver Lake 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.

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.

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.
