“We use Alexa to walk our doggo Luna while on vacation. We use her for all of our trips when Luna will be home alone for a long period and to break up her day and give her exercise when the household is all working outside of the house. She finds a way to support the times we need and shares updates and pictures from the walks.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, frogs, bearded dragons, anoles/geckos and fish. I grew up with pets and got my first dog at 18, which really shaped my love and understanding of animal care. Since then, I have raised multiple cats, including rescues and bonded pairs, as well as my Black Lab, all in a busy, loving, kid-friendly and family oriented home. I also have firsthand experience caring for senior pets and animals with medical needs. I currently have a diabetic cat who requires insulin injections and a cat with allergies who needs daily oral medication. My first dog, Cole, developed bladder cancer later in life and required ongoing home care, veterinary care, medications and extra attention. These experiences taught me how important it is to follow routines carefully, notice changes in a pet's behavior, and provide patience, comfort, and reassurance when they need it most. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, and caring for pets at all life stages—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra attention. My pets have always been part of the family, so I know how important it is to provide not just basic care, but comfort, patience, and a safe environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care, and I’m happy to tailor my services to fit each pet’s unique needs and routine. I work full-time as an educator, so I’m available before and after school hours during the week, as well as on weekends. My schedule is very consistent, and I’m home in the afternoons, evenings, and nights for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. During the summer, I have much more flexibility and availability throughout the day, which allows me to provide even more hands-on attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort means everything to me. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most relaxed and secure, and I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care, and I always take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, habits, and little quirks so they feel comfortable with me. I’m very attentive, patient, and experienced with feeding routines, administering medication, and caring for both young and senior pets. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re part of my own family—I’ll always keep you updated so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I love dogs and have always grown up with them. I am reliable, believe in clear communication and provide frequent picture updates to ensure that owners are comfortable knowing their pets are safe and happy under my care :) My job is fully remote and I am pretty flexible with my time. Let me know what works best for you and your pet(s) — I’m sure we can figure something out. I treat every dog that I look after as if they were my own. I’ll make sure to build trust and give them all the extra love, cuddles, and attention while you’re away.

My experience goes beyond work also as I’ve had a variety of pets throughout my life!

About: I currently have a mini bernadoodle named Piper. She is two years old and I have had her since she was 10 weeks old. What sets me apart is that I love her as much as my children and she has a piece of my heart. I make sure she is safe and happy every single day. I currently working fulltime but I am able to pet care weekdays, weekend mornings and evenings. I am flexible so if there is a day of the week and time you prefer feel free to ask and if I can make it work, I will be there. I am in the process of moving, so I can not have pets in my home after June 2026 but at someone else's home, your pet is my priority. I will make sure they are fed, exercised and loved.

I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Spotswood
Erin was an absolute lifesaver when she walked my 15 year old dog everyday for several weeks. She was extremely dependable, and was very understanding and patient with my senior girl (who is not always easy to get up and out the door). Erin was also a great communicator and I felt comfortable my dog was in trustworthy hands. I would recommend Erin without hesitation!
Adriane is wonderful with my puppies. She is punctual, reliable, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to my two crazy Boston Terriers. She is patient, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always feel at ease knowing they are in such good hands, and they are always happy and well cared for after their walks. I truly appreciate her professionalism, dependability, and the kindness she shows my dogs every time.

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.
