“Skylar is very flexible with our schedule. Tilly is very happy when I get home after her walks with Skylar! Skylar was very easy to create a plan with when she first came to visit. The house is always cleaned up after Tilly's indoor playtime, too! I would highly recommend her! Thank you, Skylar!”
“I needed someone to walk my dog on very short notice. Kayla said she was available and within the hour she had my dog on a walk. When they returned, it was clear that my dog enjoyed her walk and was comfortable with Kayla, so now she'll be walking her twice a week for me. I'd definitely recommend her to others looking for a dog walker!”
About: Hello! My name is Ella, and I recently moved back to Wausau after graduating from college in Montana. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Natural Horsemanship, a horse-training method focused on understanding animal behavior and building a relationship based on communication and trust. My degree also included coursework in animal health, animal husbandry, and classes taught by both large- and small-animal veterinarians. My Fiancé, Cooper, also earned a degree in Natural Horsemanship with a minor in ranch management. Like me, he has spent much of his life around animals and is comfortable caring for a variety of pets and following specific care instructions. I grew up on a hobby farm and have had horses nearly my entire life. Dogs have always been part of the family, too—we’ve had everything from Labs and bird dogs to little Jack Russells! I currently have an energetic Blue Heeler who loves joining me on horseback rides and hikes. I’ve also grown up caring for a wide variety of animals, including parrots, dogs, cats, horses, fish, and even a squirrel! This experience has taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I started my own dog-sitting business in high school and continued pet sitting throughout college in Montana. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, and fish, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. I am also comfortable administering medications and providing specialized care when needed. Just let me know what your pet needs, and I’ll do my best to make it happen! My goal isn’t just to make sure your pet is fed and cared for—it’s to make sure they are happy, comfortable, safe, and enjoying their time while you’re away. I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your weekend or vacation knowing your animals are in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or feathered!) family members! I work part time and on my own schedule - I run a small horse training and lesson program from home. I can easily fit pet care in throughout my daily routine and am very flexible. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual needs while treating your home with the same care and respect I would my own. Before each booking, I like to learn about your pet’s normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. I follow those routines as closely as possible so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you’re away. I am attentive to safety and make sure doors, gates, crates, and other areas are secure, and I’m careful to follow any instructions regarding your pet’s access to the home or yard. I’m also comfortable administering medications and providing additional care when needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable while you’re away, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, happy, and cared for—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
About: I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and taken care of my 2 beautiful pitbulls while growing up and have 2 cats with my own family now. I absolutely love playing with any animal and I’d love the opportunity to meet new feline friends! I’m currently a stay at home mother so I’m free all the time. I can come to your home and walk your dog or watch your cat when needed, whether it’s a 1 time thing or weekly! I have 2 inside cats named Poco and Zuzi. They are brother and sister from the same litter and when they aren’t playing together, I run around the house with them and throw their toys around.

Thank you for considering me to care for your furry loved ones—I’d love to meet them soon! I have open availability and a flexible schedule to accommodate you and your pet’s needs—whether that’s drop-ins, pick-ups/drop-offs, walks, overnight care, or medication routines.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 175 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sunset. 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 your Sunset. 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 Sunset 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 Sunset. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
