About: I have a master's and bachelor's in animal science and plenty of experience with an array of different animal needs, demeanors, and personalities. Taking care of animals is truly what I love to do. Pet care is built into my routine through daily feeding, walks, playtime, and grooming, plus weekly cleaning and health checks. It provides structure to my day and keeps me active, mindful, and consistent. I care for pets by providing regular feeding, exercise, supervision, and enrichment. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I use a designated area in my apartment where dogs can safely roam, play, and relax, along with scheduled walks and attentive care.
“I was anxious about finding someone that would be willing to walk my wild fur baby. But Destinee has been so patient and does such a great job with Tucker. I know he loves her weekly visits and walks. Very grateful to find someone who I can trust to take care of Tucker.”
About: I am a very gentle person by nature. I will take care of your dog as if he/she were my own. I am extremely detail oriented and attentive. My friends and family have trusted me with their precious babies for years. I will help you feel assured that your dog is getting the best care possible. I am currently only working every other weekend per month. I can dedicate myself to your animal's needs. Rest assured when I focus on your animal/animals they will get my utmost attention. Everything I do I take seriously. Your animal/animals will get professional and constant love and attention. I have been volunteering at the animal shelter with my dad for years. He is a certified dog trainer. He has taught me to have respect for all animals. I will treat your home with the same respect. I am mature and responsible and my friends and family tell me I am the most trustworthy person they know.
About: Caring for my own dog has taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and how to create a safe, comforting environment. I know how to handle daily care like feeding, walks, playtime, and basic training, and I’m comfortable with things like managing energy levels and keeping pets calm when routines change. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care to make sure they get consistent attention throughout the day. Each day includes designated times for feeding, walks or play sessions, bathroom breaks, and check-ins. I will also schedule time for grooming tasks like brushing or cleaning up, as well as giving any medications if required. When pets stay with me, I will provide a safe, pet-friendly environment where they feel comfortable and welcome. I follow their usual routine, including food, bathroom breaks, and rest that you provide me with. I will also supervise interactions with any other pets to ensure safety and comfort as my top priorities. Making pets feel like part of the family while they’re in my care is one of my main goals!
About: I have always had a dog in my life as long as I can remember. From puppies all the way up to senior dogs and everyone in between. I am employed full time 5 days a week. I work from 7:30am-4:30pm Monday-Friday. So I am free before work and then all night to watch after the animals. I have a fenced yard and a dog park near my house. My wife is always there for extra dog cuddles and to be there when I can’t be.
About: I have professional experience working in veterinary medicine and providing compassionate, attentive care to animals with a wide range of personalities and needs. Through my experience, I have developed skills in recognizing changes in behavior, safely handling pets, administering medications when directed, monitoring overall health and comfort, and helping reduce stress during care. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust, communication, and consistency are. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in experienced and caring hands. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM–6:00 PM, with Thursdays and weekends off, but I still make time to provide dependable pet care around my schedule. I’m available for morning drop-ins, evening visits, overnight care when planned in advance, and have greater flexibility on Thursdays and weekends for longer visits, walks, and quality time. I understand how important routines are for pets and will work with owners to make sure their pets receive consistent, attentive care that fits their needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. With my background in veterinary medicine and hands-on animal care experience, I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and any signs that a pet may be stressed or uncomfortable. I believe trust is built through communication, consistency, and treating every animal with patience and respect. I work to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away, and I provide updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and experienced hands.

“Logan was fantastic. This was our first time meeting and using Logan. She was on time and very responsive. Logan asked great questions so we felt like she really had a handle on what we needed. She left great notes for us and we felt very secure that our pups were in great hands. We have found a great puff sitter and will be using her frequently in the future.”
About: In the past I have fostered many dogs of all ages and dogs with medical conditions requiring more care and I am comfortable giving medications. One of my dogs I went through a training course with where we used e-collars, so if your dog is e-collar trained I am very comfortable with this! I have also worked at a dog boarding facility taking care of many dogs and worked at a vet clinic taking care of dogs boarding! I am currently watching dogs full time so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention and exercise they need to feel most comfortable!

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.

- 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
