“We were in Houghton to visit Isle Royale. The issue was we were traveling in our RV with our 3-year-old Labrador and we didn't want to leave him alone for such a long day. We were lucky enough to find Rylie and I really can't say enough good things about her. She came over three times throughout the day to let our dog out, walk him, and spent time with him. Each time she sent us several new pictures and communicated wonderfully throughout the day. She allowed us to enjoy the day and not have to stress over our dog being watched and taking care of. If we're ever back in Houghton we will definitely use Rylie again!”

About: I rescued our first dog, Trigger, in 2012 with my husband. He came from an abusive and neglected household. He lived his best life with us, and I still miss him terribly. We then rescued our current dog, Zeus, in 2020. He is almost 5. I will make sure your pet gets all the attention and love they deserve! I work during the school year (8-3), but am off during the summer. I would be able to come after 3:00 if need be during the school year. I have a fenced in yard, and one dog that can be put in his room or basement if need be while watching another animal.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs. I will take your pups on walks, feed them, play with them, entertain them, and also provide some housekeeping as well! I am pretty flexible on times and days that you need me! Let me know and I can try my best to make anything work for you! I can care for your pets in your home any way that you would like. I can get used to dogs who take a little bit to warm up and learn the ways of their personalities.

About: My dedication and proficiency in learning new skills has led to caring for various unique animals and gaining hands-on knowledge. I am willing to care for any animals you need, just reach out! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, bunnies, guinea pigs, snakes, geckos, fish, house birds, chickens, turkeys, ducks, pigs, cows, and sheep of various ages. I also have cared for dogs/cats that are blind, deaf, seizure prone and require medication (oral/injectable). I'm proficient in first aid basics for dogs and cats as well. I'm self-motivated and reliable, taking care of my family's pets from a young age and gaining endless experience since including taking care of countless neighbor's animals while growing up and continuing to do so. In addition to pet sitting, I have volunteered at various rescues and have fostered multiple cats, including a litter of five 4 week old kittens. Since fall 2019, I have been working with mushing kennels ranging from 10-70 dogs; through hard work and consistency, I became entrusted to care for and train dogs at these kennels, participating in multiple mushing races. I have assisted numerous mushers with their dogs at events and have learned a lot from them, along with veterinarians that attend. I'm practiced in raising multiple litters and took in a runt puppy temporarily when he required extra attention and bottle feeding. These experiences also resulted in me befriending a service dog trainer, who has helped me learn how to apply different training techniques to both dogs and cats. Now I have a sled dog of my own who has been a joy and given me insight into training my own dog for various sports plus service dog public access and tasks. Thanks for reading this glimpse into my experiences taking exceptional care of animals. I look forward to continuing to learn more and help others. I always take the opportunity to get to know each animal individually, tending to bond with them quickly. I would love to get to know you and your pets if you give me the chance! I currently work 4-5 days a week with around 8-10 hour shifts, but am able to leave mid-shift for a potty break and sometimes can do some work from home as well. I also live with my partner and sister who both have lots of similar experience with caring for animals and are happy to step in and help out as well. Many clients meet them and love that their pets get extra attention, often choosing to hire them for jobs when I'm unavailable. When caring for client's pets, my first priority is safety. I make sure my client and I have contact information for each other and any additional contacts for emergencies. I make note of their preferred veterinarian and any concerns they might have. I also prefer a meet and greet to get to know each other and the animal(s). Then I have the owner walk me through their care routine and ask questions. Once I know the tasks for the job, I see if there is anything else I can do to make my client feel more comfortable. This includes providing frequent updates with pictures, and anything else needed for them to know their pet(s) are in good hands. I take constructive criticism well and look forward to providing the best services I can!

About: I have owned dogs my whole life and more recently cats. I have experience with multiple breeds of dogs, both rescue and bread dogs, and different types of harnesses. I have been dog sitting and walking for six years now for varying amounts of time. I am a college student so my schedule is dependent on my classes and my on-campus job, but I can make my schedule fit around any pet care! needs. I have two dogs of my own so I would be coming to the client's house to care for their pet. For specific rules and training, I would discuss a plan with the owners as to be consistent.

About: My Family and I have had dogs in the family for years and I have always had a big role in taking care of them from baths to playtime and food. In 2020 we then started raising puppies. I have helped from the birthing to medication and playtime, overcoming new obstacles and fears, and potty training. I have dog sat a bit and have done well making sure they got exercise, food, and medication. I do not have much experience with watching cats but love playing with my Aunt's who breeds and raises kittens. I currently go to college classes but have a fairly flexible schedule. In the summer aside from a few trips I have nothing going on! I feed them twice a day unless specified, give baths once every other week and as needed. If they don't seem to be enjoying an activity changing it or making the situation better. Trust and respect are very important. The wishes of the owners or parents will be followed and hope to give your pet the best care while you are away

About: Hi, I'm JaLynn! I offer pet sitting services including drop in visits, dog walking, bathing and in-home dog boarding. I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and more so your pets will fit right in! I'm also a SAHM to a sweet 1 yr old girl, and a gentle Golden Retriever named Yetti who loves company. We live in the country with a large fenced in backyard where your pets can safely play and get plenty of exercise. My aim is to be a dependable and helpful resource for your family to make your travels a little less stressful. I am a Stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty flexible during the day for daycare. My husband also works from home so typically if I'm not home, he is! I generally am most free in the mornings and evenings for drop ins. I have a large fenced in backyard and a doggy door so your pet will be able to play as much as they desire. I also have a friendly golden retriever who loves company! I do have a 1 yr old daughter so all in home stays will need to be experienced and friendly with kids.

About: I have hands on experience with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, cows, sheep, goats, and horses. My strongest background is in training and caring for horses. Additionally, I spent four months shadowing at a veterinary clinic, where I gained valuable knowledge about the care and wellbeing of cats and dogs. I’ve also provided pet care for friends and family, and I genuinely enjoy building trust and spending time with the animals I look after. I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of time to play with and care for any pets in my care. On average, I work only 4–5 hours a day, so your pet will receive lots of attention throughout the day. Even when I’m briefly away, your pet won’t be alone—my family members, who also love animals, are often around and happy to help. Your pet will be surrounded by care, attention, and a loving environment at all times. I always follow any instructions provided by the owner to ensure your pet’s routine and comfort are maintained. While I don’t have a fenced in yard, your pet will always be closely supervised when outside to ensure their safety.

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 South Range. 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 South Range 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 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
