About: Retired school teacher and dog owner for over 30 years. I bring experience in caring for many different breeds. Dogs in my care are family, not pets. All dogs that stay with us are treated and loved as a member of the family. I have experience in dogs with disorders, special diets and weather related stress. Being a school teacher, I am home early afternoon and all weekend/holidays which provides me with plenty of time to care for and love your furbaby. When your pet comes to me, they will have the same access and activities, if desired, as my dog. We have a fenced in yard for unlimited supervised playtime. Your dog will also take walks and relax on the couch.
“Joe is the best! He is a willing and understanding dog person for pet parents like me who have more difficult dogs. As his bio indicates his experience with the SPCA and years of pet sitting make him extra special.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the genuine love and joy I get from being around dogs. Spending time with them never feels like “work” to me! I love playing, going on walks, giving them attention, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including puppies and older dogs who need extra patience and care. I’m very attentive, reliable, and always make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and treated like family. As a nursing student, I’m naturally detail-oriented, responsible, and calm under pressure, which helps me provide safe and trustworthy care. My goal is always to make both you and your dog feel at ease. I’ve been babysitting and walking a family of 9 dogs for the past 4 years. I can’t wait to be your dogs new best friend :) Nursing student home from college for the summer, offering dependable and compassionate pet care. Very flexible schedule, attentive to safety, and committed to keeping your dog happy!! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and comfortable so pets feel safe and relaxed. I always follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language so I can catch if something seems off. I also make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and exercise because I know how important that is for their happiness.
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was young. I grew up caring for a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel and a Chocolate Lab, and I currently have a very energetic Cockapoo. I love all dog breeds and personalities! In college, I also cared for a senior German Shepherd when their family was away on vacation. I have a very flexible and non traditional work schedule. I can watch and care for your dog on any of my days off as much and as often as you need. I will follow any instructions exactly to insure your dog is as safe, healthy, and happy as possible. I love going for long walks and making sure they get the exercise they need.
“I left on vacation for a week and April took amazing care of my dog, Rocky. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated the whole time. I came home to a Rocky happy and well fed. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
“Darlene is amazing with my dog and he LOVES her!! She always provides the full 30 minute walk which I truly appreciate. She also makes sure he eats before she leaves, and she is always in great contact with me. I truly always look for Darlene's availability when looking to book my dog for a walk. I would definitely say she is the best I have used on here and I will recommend her again and again!”
About: I have had experience with animals my whole life. Owning cats, dogs, chickens, quails, snakes, fish, you name it, I’ve probably owned it. I have owned puppies and kittens, bottle feeding both and managing sleep times and other care. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends! I have a very flexible schedule! I will treat your home with the utmost respect of course! I have pet sit and babysit my whole life, and have experience with staying overnight in
About: Have owned pets since I was in 4th grade. Recently lost my dog to old age so I miss being around animals. Friends & family rely on me to care for pets while working/traveling. Work part time blocks from my home so very flexible! Take my dog on 2-3 walks a day as I work blocks from my home and only part time. I live in an apartment blocks from beach and park. I currently walk daily so I have time to do many walks. Have an extremely mellow 10 year old chow/retriever mix so if your dog doesn’t get along with other dogs please let me know so I can work with you to arrange what you need!
“First time meeting Petey. She is great! He was a little reluctant to walk, he barked at first. Food motivated so a little treat at introduction and now he knows who she is, and it was a really good first time walk. 👍🏼😊”
About: I’ve had a dog for most of my life. I have experience feeding, walking and caring for dogs. I love being around dogs and I’m very good with all sizes of dogs. My last dog was around 90 pounds so I can handle larger dogs. I am definitely a dog person and love all dogs! I am currently working full time during the week and am home by 4:30 on weekdays so am available during the evening throughout the week I can follow whatever rules you may have for your pup and do the best I can to make your pup feel as loved and taken care of as possible!
“Alexis is a wonderful dog sitter! She was super communacative and reliable in her check-ins which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious she’s a true animal lover and was very sweet with my dog, she did an excellent job- I’d definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”
About: Lifelong cat expert and passionate dog sitter! Even though I’ve grown up, watched, and cared for cats since I was born, I have then transferred this experience to the pups around me. Whether in my family or in my close circle of friends, I extend my compassion and care to all animals In the morning when I’m up for work I feed my cats. When I have free time before I leave I play with them, and of course when I come home I give them a warm greeting. They are fed again at night and I make sure to give them all the snuggles, love, and playtime inbetween it all. My cats are STRICTLY indoor cats and do not leave the house. They are trained to run away when the door opens but Luna sometimes gets curious about outside

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

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spring Lake Heights. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
