“I am so glad to have chosen Savanah to walk my precious girl, Scout, while I’m at work. She gives thorough and thoughtful updates and gets amazing photos of my happy girl. Savanah is so sweet and you can tell she really cares. She is reliable and a great communicator. She did everything I requested and was sure to confirm she did so at each visit. Scout was extra playful and happy everyday after Savanah’s visits!”

About: I have had animals my entire life, and I love them all! I can take dogs on an adventure, or enjoy a quick stroll around the neighborhood, depending on their needs. I want them to feel safe and comfortable with me! I have more availability over the weekends, but am happy to chat about care during the week to see if it is the right fit I treat your dogs like they are my own - they are welcome to snuggle on the furniture and be comfortable. I have a dog park in my neighborhood to provide time off leash and for play.

About: Growing up with at least two dogs in my home at any given time, I have gratitude for the joy and companionship pets can bring to a family. I've cared for my senior cat for the past 19 years. She is the love of my life who is now suffering from kidney failure. 😞 While in high school, I spent 4 years in the dog grooming industry. To this day, I am always the first to volunteer to look after pets for my friends and family. I now work at the Western North Carolina Nature Center by day where I train to handle animals during educational programs and support their well-being as "ambassadors" of their species. I have respect and love for all animals! 🩷 I'm also passionate about holistic pet health and cognition, and can accommodate to your pet's special diet protocol or exercise plan. In addition, I have experience giving around-the-clock care for puppies and senior pets and can administer medication when needed. I also offer nail trims and baths for well-behaved pets. Outside of my time spent at the Nature Center, I also work part-time in a hybrid role as an administrative assistant. This allows me the flexibility to meet you and your pets needs. I look forward to spending quality time with your best friend! I'm currently working part-time, with ample time off in the afternoons and evenings. I'm available after work around 3pm for walks and drop-ins, and am able to offer potty breaks every 4 hours or so during house sits. My days off from work are Wednesday and Thursday--if you'd like to request a walk or drop-in during an earlier time frame on those days, let me know! 😊 I am a compassionate and detail-oriented pet sitter. I really enjoy spending quality time with my client's pets. I'm happy to spend lots of time outside as needed.

About: I've taken care of many dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional bird. I had my own pet sitting side business while I was in college in Tampa and have missed I ever since I moved!! I am currently looking to switch careers so my appointment book will be pretty open in the near future. I'd love for this to develop into my full time job. I am currently renting so I'm not offering boarding services. But I'm offering drop in visits not only to walk, feed, and clean up after pets but to spend some time with them so they are not lonely

About: “I have taken care of dogs my whole life and currently have a sweet pug puppy named Willow. I love taking dogs on walks, giving them playtime, potty breaks, snuggles, and lots of attention.

Whether it’s a quick drop-in or an overnight stay, your pup will feel safe, happy and deeply loved in my care I work from home as an artist and am almost always here, so your dog will get consistent walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles throughout the day. They won’t be left alone except for quick errands. 🐾 My home is very dog-friendly with a fully fenced in yard, tons of toys, comfy dog beds, and lots of space to relax. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and in my bed (just like my own pups). I treat every dog like part of the family — with lots of love, patience, and positive reinforcement. 🐾

About: Hi! I’m Izzy, and I’m the kind of person who will probably greet your dog before I greet you! 😂🐶 I’ve grown up surrounded by pets my entire life and have always had a huge soft spot for animals. I’ve cared for my own pets, watched pets for friends and family, and have professional experience working at a doggy daycare! Working at a doggy daycare gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, energy levels, and play styles. I’ve learned how to read body language, recognize different behaviors, safely manage groups of dogs, and understand when a pup needs playtime, space, reassurance, or a good cuddle. 🐕🩷 I absolutely LOVE getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pup is a crazy ball of energy who wants to play all day, a nervous little baby who needs extra patience, or a professional couch potato who just wants cuddles I’m happy to meet them exactly where they’re at! When your pets are with me, they’ll get plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, enrichment, and of course… LOTS of belly rubs. 💕 My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and spoiled while you’re away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your fur babies are in caring and experienced hands. I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐾✨ Pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the week. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment where animals can feel secure and cared for. I also have experienced introducing pets safely, as I have four friendly dogs and three gentle cats at home who are used to meeting new animals. I always take time to ensure every pet feels comfortable and respected

About: I have experience, caring for bottle fed babies to medically, needy, senior pups. They’re all deserving of the same amount of love, loyalty and attention. My pet care routine begins the moment. I wake up with my senior pitbull and boxer. They are the most loved of my family members and my highest priority! I have a fenced in yard so my dogs are safe and well cared for. They enjoy fresh air and exercise and lounging in the sun.

About: Have had pets my entire life, bred multiple reptiles in the past, have had several dogs over the years, exotics, still have a 23 year old african grey who is my middle child who won't leave the nest, spent a decade volunteering at a no-kill shelter, multiple animal rescues, have worked in multiple veterinary offices, been vegetarian since 1997, worked as a vegan chef in several restaurants, and still love to cook for potlucks, friends and fun! I'm currently just working a few days a week in a restaurant, no other commitments. Plus it's the longest I've ever been without companion animal of my own, so I have extra time and love to give at the moment. Will follow the owners instructions to the tee, and more often than not spend additional time when possible. I'm currently without pets of my own which is rare for me, so I have an ample amount of attention and care to spare!

About: My whole life has revolved around my passion and love for animals. From volunteering at my local animal shelter, working at luxury pet resorts to working on a Farm I have had experience with animals of all sizes. In the future I hope to become a certified dog trainer and I am already on my way to it. I am dog and cat CPR certificated. I have years of experience caring for all sizes and age groups of pets. I personally have two dogs that get to go to the park and do training daily. I personally feel like enrichment for animals is one of the most important part of pet care in a day. I strive myself to be able to give all of the animals I take care of mental and physical enrichment daily. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time outside of work to care for my own pets, as well as others pets to my best ability. My main priority for pet care is making sure the pet is safe, happy and healthy. I also want to make sure that pet parents are comfortable with the approaches I use and the incentives given to the animals. I want the pet care I provide to be a happy and mutually beneficial experience for both the animals and the parents.

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 Stony Fork. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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.
