“Jessie is SO great and I cannot sing her praises enough. She is consistent, reliable, and always sends me detailed updates and pictures from her visit with my dog, Calypso.

Jessie really has been phenomenal and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services.
