About: I’ve been raised with dogs my whole life, with my own fur baby adopted little over a year! My family and friends have trusted me to watch/walk their dogs numerous times. Dogs tend to gravitate towards myself, they can probably smell that i like them :-D Just recently graduated from college, looking for a side hustle while following my career goals! During the week I have the most free time, with weekends usually away traveling. I am extremely active with no issues walking far distances for your fur baby, and will adhere to any necessities for your dogs maintenance (medicine, feeding, etc).

I have a flexible schedule so I can work around the one you provide , message me with a time and I will gladly let you know if I am available. I take your pets safety and comfort very seriously.

About: I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs, I also have experience with rodents such as rabbits, mice, rats, and hamsters. I also am fine taking care of reptiles if needed. I'm available almost everyday, so I have plenty of time to stay at your house and watch your animals. I can even stay the night if needed. I feed them breakfast and dinner everyday, clean litter boxes once or twice a day depending on how many cats, and I could walk the dogs two or three times a day.

About: I've always had dogs and crate trained my dogs. I know how to train basic commands but nothing really beyond that. I do love playing with dogs and also relaxing with them as well. I do work full time but I do work from home most of the week. So my schedule is pretty flexible for the most part. I have a fenced yard, and 4 friendly dogs. We do have 2 cats but they stay outside as they don't like our dogs. I make sure the the pet I babysit is comfortable and listen to instructions on the owners requests.

About: From the moment I was born, we always had a dog growing up. In 2013, I got my very own pitbull puppy and she quickly became my best friend. She walked on my journey with me for 10 years. Through changing cities, college, careers, and becoming a mother to two daughters, she was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. Our pets truly become apart of the family. It is important for us to show them everyday how much we love and cherish them while they are walking on our journey. Finding the right person couldn’t be more important. I am a stay-at-home mom of two daughters. Our days are usually spent outdoors going on walks, local hiking trails or cool parks. As the weather is getting cooler, we always welcome a furry friend to cuddle on the couch while watching movies and sipping hot cocoa. Opportunities for pet care is important for us as part of life teachings and my daughters take the task very seriously. My home has a large fenced backyard. They have the opportunity to stay inside the home or roam freely outside. We have a doggy door for easy access but are more than willing to open the back patio door each time if they do not know how to use the doggy door. Inside your home, I can tailor to your needs without any issues.

About: I truly love animals, especially dogs. They’re not just pets — they’re family. Caring for them brings me so much joy, and I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening visits, I make time to give every dog the love, exercise, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether in my home or my client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. In my client’s home, I make sure their pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping the space clean and secure.

About: I have a deep love and appreciation for dogs. Have been taking care of my family’s dog for years now as well as watching my friend’s dogs and cats while she’s away for work for multiple days. I’m currently working little hours at my local job, but I am looking to expand that by walking and taking great care of your furry friends right now I like to get to know the animal and can understand their body language in many different scenarios. I understand what they think as threats and can anticipate different situations and handle as such.

About: Hello, Rover. I’ve got some extra time on my hands and I’d love to watch or walk some dogs. If you are interested do not hesitate to reach out. I look forward to any and all future prospects. I work from 8am to 3pm so anytime before or after is no problem. I am completely free Saturdays and Sundays as well as summer and winter breaks. I’m available for drop ins or longer stays. I require at least an hour notice of your return so I know exactly when it’s ok to leave. You may simply message me that you are on the way back. If you give me a key please specify if you’d like me to put it under a mat or hand it to you directly. I will honestly just cuddle and sit with your pet so I offer near constant supervision. I can easily crate your pet if needed as well. I will say I do not do well with very large very hyper dogs unless they are well trained.

About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was raised around animals and treat them all like they are my own. I have experience with puppies, dog walking, and managing multiple dogs at one time. I currently work full time at a school but I like to take care of animals when I am free. I have a lot of time off and my weekend is open for any fur baby that needs me. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.

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 Simms. 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 , 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 Simms 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 , 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.

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 .

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.
