About: I’ve taken care of family and friend’s pets for years. I also have experience caring for my own senior dog. I interned at the animal shelter in High School. I work from home and am free to care for your pet anytime. I can walk them around their neighborhood, feed them, give them medication, clean up after them, let them outside, etc. at anytime you need me to. I cannot bring your pets to my home since my dog is not friendly, however I can walk them and can stay at your house to ensure they are safe and cared for. I can do any special rituals your pet may need, I can clean up after them if they have an accident. I will watch them attentively to make sure they are not ill and are eating properly. I will ensure your pet is happy while you attend to your own business.
“We have never had a dog walker before, but with some life changes, there are long days. I had heard of rover and decided to check it out. Our need was short notice… the next day. I reached out to a few people and Justin was the first to respond. Eager, pleasant and incredibly easy to communicate with. It can be an uncomfortable thought having a stranger go into your home. I never felt worried with Justin. He just has a way that makes you feel at ease. The first visit, I knew he had this job for a reason. When I saw the first pictures, it was clear he had fantastic instincts and a way with dogs. We have booked him at a minimum weekly since and it has been the best experience. It is cool watching the dogs faces change in the pictures as they get to know him. Justin is Waylon’s (my black mouth cur dog) BFF❤️ I truly cannot say enough good things about Justin. He is just a fantastic human.”

I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in. I also have a male (neutered) dog who just turned two. He’s very friendly and trained! I have a large crate if your pet needs to be crated for any reason, otherwise they are welcome to snuggle on my couch or bed with me!!
About: I have worked in a mixed animal clinic for 3 years. I have a degree in equine business with preVet qualifications. I have taken care of pets and livestock since I could walk. I have experience with the youngest to senior pets. I’m currently available before work and after work to check in on your pets!

Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.
About: I’ve never met a dog I didn’t love, I can’t imagine life without dogs. Every dog deserves to feel valued, and if I can give your pup a little extra love than they already receive from you, I’d be honored! Pet care is part of my daily routine with my pups already—feeding, walking, playing, and cuddling. It brings structure, joy, and a sense of responsibility to my week. I take caring for my own pets and others very seriously—I make sure they receive enough quality time, food, walking, playing, and attention. I want them to feel safe, happy, and loved whether in my home or a client’s.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, as well as provide plenty of love and attention. At home, I’ve cared for my own pets daily ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well groomed. I also volunteer with the SMU feral cat community, helping feed, monitor, and care for stray cats on campus. My experience spans from puppies and kittens to senior pets, and I’m comfortable with all temperaments and sizes. Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.

I always check in with pet owners every day and send them pictures and videos of their fur babies. I always make sure they are fed and have water. And will walk them however many times the owner requests

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 Southmayd. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
