“Sandy was phenomenal with my dogs. I left for a month long vacation and she worked with another Rover-walker to help take great care of my dogs while I was gone. One of my three dogs has a disability and can be hard to take care of (which makes it hard for me to trust who is taking care of him), but every photo and rover card that was submitted made my fiance and I smile and feel such relief knowing we left our dogs in good hands. I would definitely book her again in the future!”
“Erin B. has been walking our large dog for several weeks. Our dog gets so excited when she knows Erin is coming as they have a great time. She even waits for her on days that are not scheduled for walking. Erin can deal with our dog's anxiety issues and tendency to veer around. Erin is an excellent communicator with me, and has just been wonderful for our dog. We are very glad we have connected with her. Thanks!”
About: Hi! I'm currently a college student who's looking to have a decent side job while also dealing with missing her animals back home! I have eleven cats and four dogs back home, as well as three guinea pigs, a hermit crab and some exotic animals as well. My parents are the primary owners, but I am often the caretaker of all of our pets, especially when my parents are out of town! I have experience with senior dogs, young dogs, small, big, and medium sized dogs and dogs of varying temperament. I am used to the varying temperament of cats, too! Since we have exotic animals, I'm also used to a handful of different routines and dealing with different feeding preferences and rules. I have experience with watching some pets of my family members as well, so it's not just limited to my immediate family! I'm currently a student full time at BGSU, but my classes generally get done around 12:20PM on Mon/Wed/Fri, around 2:30PM on Tuesdays, and around 10:30AM on Thursdays! I'm more than willing to stop by after my classes to check up on your pets, and I'm generally up around 6:30AM so there's no issue in morning routines. In my home, things are ran a bit different since we have so many different animals. My main focus at home is usually keeping the dogs out for periods of time, watching them and playing with them if they're willing to play along! Whatever your usual routine is at home is what I'll be willing to adjust to, since the comfort of your pet is my priority!
About: I have been watching and caring for dogs for around 3 years now. I also know and love taking care of all types of cats. Along with animals I love to house sit I am currently a sophomore at BGSU and work part time at a local golf corse. I have a set schedule that’s is very easy to work around. I will always watch the dogs when they go out side and will sit with them for as long as they need. I will also make sure to feed them right when it needs to happen.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for years! Being from a small town, lots of friends and neighbors have trusted me to look after their dogs and cats while away on vacations. On top of this, I currently work as a full time nanny, which has taught me so many things such as reliability and responsibility- characteristics that directly translate to pet care. I am available for pet care on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the early mornings (before 10:00 a.m.) and again after 6:00 p.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am available after 3:00 p.m. I also have open availability all day on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and other pet care needs. For the most part I can be pretty flexible, so don’t hesitate to message me with specifics. When caring for a pet in a clients home, I feel it is most important to treat their home with respect and prioritize pet happiness!!
About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet care provider serving Maumee, Toledo, and surrounding communities. With a background in animal care, dog training, and grooming, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets and your home. I provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walking services tailored to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or a senior who prefers a slower pace, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My experience includes working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I value positive interactions, enrichment, consistency, and understanding canine behavior. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and routine care according to your instructions. I also understand the importance of maintaining familiar routines while owners are away. Communication is a priority for me! You can expect Rover Cards, photos, and updates so you know how your pets are doing. I’m happy to help with recurring weekday care, occasional visits, and vacation drop-ins. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently offer flexible scheduling for drop-in visits and dog walking throughout the week. I welcome both recurring clients who need consistent care and occasional bookings for vacations, work schedules, or other commitments. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s established routine while maintaining a dependable schedule for all my clients. Feel free to reach out to discuss your pet’s needs and preferred visit times! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. With my background in animal care and canine behavior, I understand the importance of creating a calm, positive experience while maintaining each pet’s familiar routine. During drop-in visits and walks, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, household routines, and any special care requirements. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, comfort level, and individual needs rather than expecting every animal to respond the same way. I prioritize safe handling, appropriate leash and harness use, secure doors and gates, and awareness of my surroundings during walks. I also respect each pet’s boundaries, particularly those who may be nervous, reactive, or uncomfortable with unfamiliar people. I treat every client’s home with care and respect, making sure pets are secure and their environment is left clean and comfortable. Communication is extremely important to me. I provide Rover Cards, photos, and updates throughout visits so you can feel confident knowing your pets are receiving attentive, dependable care while you’re away.
“I have a broken foot and cannot walk my senior dog Dusty. I was leery to hire someone I didn't know. Mark was amazing with Dusty !. He got right down on the floor to greet and play with him. He even coaxed Dusty to take a longer walk. I highly recommend him for his positive and eager approach to dogs.”

I am available most weekdays and most weekends for whatever service is needed. When watching pets in my client’s home I make sure to spend lots of time with the pets and take care of whatever needs and wants they have.
“Meira was wonderful with LiLi! She walked her twice while I was at work. She made sure LiLi wasn’t overheating, which she tends to do very easily. She was very attentive. Meira was communicated well with me and sent me pictures. I was very happy with her and will definitely be using her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 499 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sugar Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Sugar Ridge. 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 a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Sugar Ridge after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sugar Ridge. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
