“Our meet and greet with Kaelee and first walk went so well! She and Pickle hit it off and Kaelee was so patient with our nervous little pup. She is professional and thorough and so kind. We will definitely be having her come regularly!”
“Shareem is the best dog Walker we’ve ever had. She’s consistent, caring, communicative, and always showing up for the best interest of our girls. Our two pitbulls are not the easiest to walk or manage but she meets their needs and requirements with no extra hassle. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Kianna came for meet and greet prior to walks and my lab puppy, Lily, loved her right away. Kianna provided great updates during walks and tailored walks to our puppy and the weather. Will definitely use her again.”
About: Happy to help with all your animal care needs! Even shy animals seem to take to me quickly. I have house sat for entire homestead farms, caring for ducks, cows, dozens of cats and chickens. I have always felt very connected to the natural world and have a great empathy for all creatures great and small. I began training and caretaking my own dogs at age 10. I fostered for years as an adult before adopting my Hawaiian rescue dog. Friends and family have relied on me to assist with their pets a lot in the past few years. My very social and intelligent Border Collie has assisted me in training several puppies, helped to socialize shy dogs and taught dogs to swim. I work evenings and am happy to help with your pets during the day. I may be available day of - go ahead and send a request! I carry all clearances required for school teaching ( I also work in education) so I am a very safe choice :) I am very good at following your detailed instructions on how to best care for your pet.
About: I had a border Collie for 17 years now an American shepherd for 1.5 years and he's fully trained already he's great just still a pup. Currently I work part time for an Amish company and I do morning pick ups and evening drop off with Thursday me being at the job all day. With time in advance I can move stuff around if need be. Im basically free all week during the times everyone is working. Well my dog i train and make sure he's behaving before he gets a reward. I don't always make him do stuff for tricks, but I practice commands daily and when it's not raining we go on walks, unfortunately he gets car sick so long drives aren't great for him still. I hug him tell him he's great tell him when he's done something bad as well, Play with toys and I'm currently working on him knowing what toy I'm telling him to get
About: I have cared for my own pups and cats ever since I was four. Over the years, I’ve had a few hamsters, and I currently have a nine year-old Shih Tzu whom I adore. I just graduated from Wilson College where I did a few years of Veterinary Nursing. I am extremely passionate about animal care. I’ve gained valuable experience from working at a pet store for three years and from completed a year-long Veterinary Assistant program, which was extremely beneficial and geared my initial career choices. I am quite active and would love to take animals on walks or runs as needed throughout the day. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and playing with them. Additionally, I am comfortable administering medication, feeding, bathing, and brushing. I find cleaning quite stress-relieving, so I assure you that cleanliness is important to me. Your space and animal will be treated with the utmost respect. Do you need your plants watered? Fish fed? Dust levels maintained to a minimum? I am happy to assist with these services as well! I am home from college and decided to get right back into Pet sitting. I have plenty of time with my remote internship to take care of one of my favorite things in this world: Animals. Pets fit perfectly with my daily and weekly routine. Caring for pets in my home or a client's home can vary depending on the specific needs of the pets. 1. Routine: I try to Establish a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime and /or go with a routine as similar as their usual one as I can. 2.Communication: Discuss the pet's routine, dietary needs, and any special instructions with the client. Maintain communication throughout the whole stay and beforehand. 3. Updates: I Keep the client updated on their pet's well-being through messages or photos. 4. Respect: I Treat the client's home with respect and follow any house rules they have set.
About: I have lifelong experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, including raising my own dogs and caring for puppies, senior dogs and dogs with anxiety. I currently have a 8 year yellow Lab named Nala. She’s sweet, affectionate and has just enough of the typical Lab troublemaker personality to keep things interesting! I’m comfortable following individual routines and giving each dog the patience and attention they need. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention, exercise and care they need while you’re away. I’m happy to adjust to what works best for them. Most importantly, I take being responsible for someone’s pet seriously. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own and I’ll make sure your dog is well cared for while you’re not there. I work full time during the week, but have the most flexibility on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule visits in advance so I can give each dog the time and attention they need. When I’m caring for a pet, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, safe, nd well cared for. I’ll follow your instructions and their normal routine, whether that menas a walk, potty break, playtime, or simply some company.

About: Hi! I have had pets my whole life. Growing up we had dogs and then beginning in 2006, I adopted my first cat and ultimately turned my family into cat lovers (we have 8 kitties between the various family members). I’ve personally used Rover for the last year for cat sitters during some family travel and have been so impressed with the service that I wanted to become a sitter myself. I am currently working part-time from home, so I have lots of time between school and/or camp drop-offs and pick-ups to play with doggies and kitties. I am eager to increase my daily step count, so dog walking would be a perfect addition to my walk. Occasionally my animal loving boys might be with me on the job. Both are ver gentle. I would care for all of your pets in the comfort and safety of your home, yard, and/or neighborhood. I believe pets thrive on familiar environments.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,005 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Slackwater. 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 Slackwater. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Slackwater.

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 .

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
