About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I also have a dog that loves to play with other dogs. Willing to walk dogs and spend time with your dog in your home or mine. I do have a 1 year old who will be with me. Preferred if dog is good with kids and of course I will monitor my child around your animal (as I do with my own dog). I like to take our dog running in the hills usually off leash. My dog has a training collar so if that is something your dog has or is good at coming back when called, they will be a good fit! I work part time, each week is different for what day. Only 2-3 a week. I have a dog at home who loves to play with other dogs as well. He’s a husker/golden. We love to take him for runs (mostly because he’s chubby) and he loves to cuddle. So we know all about cuddly pets. I have a fenced yard and a 1 year old son. I am easy to let dogs out and or go for walks (love to get exercise in). Fresh air is the best and getting out of the house! I know the importance of being present with your dog.. I love when people stay to give my dog company and not make him feel lonely.
About: Since I was 7, loved every just about every animal. And cared for so many different kinds. Cats, Dogs and lots of other animals too. I have experience with herding breeds, and dogs over 100 lbs, and with a wide variety of other pets. I am also insured as a pet sitter. I am a homemaker, with a regular weekly schedule. The times I'm unavailable to drop by are weekend and Monday mornings from 9 - 12:15 and Tuesday Nights from 6 - 9:15. Everything else is open. I will take wonderful care of your pet with love, in a place, manner and routine that they are familiar and comfortable with. Frozen, or fresh, homemade food is no problem. Playtime, cuddles, cleaning poop? Of course! All tailored to your pet's individual needs.
About: I have had dogs in my life as long as I can remember. And I love every dog that I see. And all deserve the best care. I have recently moved to the area, so I have all the time to watch pets that need to be taken care of. Walking or overnights I am able to come to your house and walk/love on them and or stay overnight. Which ever is best for you and your pets.

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 Sturgis. 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.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
