“I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Not only are Nicole and Cody timely, communicative, and great with dogs, but Nicole also assisted in an emergency situation at my home. Although not at all her responsibility, she made sure both the person and dog in my house were taken care of and adjusted her schedule to be there until the the emergency was resolved. I am so incredibly grateful to Nicole and Cody.”
“Alyssa did a great job caring for our dogs and was very communicative and friendly throughout the entire process. We ended up leaving our house later than we thought and she was very flexible in walking them a little later than the scheduled time. We will absolutely be using her services again!”
“We have world with Joyce for quite some time and Boomer loves her. She has a calm spirit, is punctual, knowledgeable about dogs, is flexible and allows this dog mom peace knowing Boomer is loved and well taken care of. We have used weekly for walks and periodically for home visits when gone for a weekend. Highly recommend🩷”

“Sarah, thank you so much. Kenzie really enjoyed her walk with you. You demonstrated real affection and professionalism with her. She really enjoyed her time walking with you!”
About: I’ve been working on Rover for over 3 years! I had two large Black Lab/GS mixes growing up. I now live with my partner and our two dogs who are a dachshund mix (9 years old) and a cocker spaniel mix (7 years old). Animals should be treated with respect and love! Your dogs couldn’t be in better hands! I work full time on rover so I have ample time to dedicate quality time to your babies throughout the day whether that be check ins or walks! That also means I’m adaptable to your pets schedules! I also adhere to pet parent rules and schedules! You will always be able to reach me at my cell and I will update you regularly with photos of your loved one! We live in a 3 bed room house that allows me to keep my furry family separate from your furry family at all times if needed! We have a fenced in back yard for potty breaks!
About: I have always loved animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I have experience with cats, dogs, bunnies, and reptiles. I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant, and I am ready to care for your special-needs animals. I'm currently a stay-at-home girlfriend, so I am extremely flexible. I can work with your schedule. I can also work with you for short-notice visits. I love walking dogs, so there would be plenty of outside time! I will keep your pet on schedule with medications, meals, and outdoor time. I want to work with you and your pet's schedule!
About: Hi, I’m Danielle 🐾 Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I love giving them the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. As a retired Navy veteran, I know how important it is to have someone dependable you can trust when work, vacations, or last minute plans come up. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and ages, as well as cats. I offer in home pet care and daily walks, with a fenced backyard and a dog park nearby for plenty of play and exercise. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow whatever makes them feel most comfortable. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. ❤️🐶🐱 I’m a stay-at-home mom to three school-aged children and a toddler, which gives me a flexible schedule outside of school drop-off and pick-up. I’m available for boarding and daytime care, and I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule and make the process simple and stress-free. If you’re looking for a dependable sitter who will treat your pet like family, I’d love to learn more about their routine, personality, and needs. Reach out today to ask questions, discuss availability, or arrange a stay—I’d be happy to connect with you and help your fur baby feel right at home! 🐾 I want every pet in my care to feel safe, loved, and completely at home. ❤️ I have a clean, fully fenced backyard where pets can enjoy supervised playtime, fresh air, and bathroom breaks. There’s also a nearby dog park for pups who would enjoy some extra exercise. My two pets freely roam our home, but I can easily create separate spaces whenever needed to help everyone feel comfortable. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate time, and individual needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or prefers a little quiet time, I’ll make sure they feel respected and cared for. Your fur baby will be treated like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, and reassurance while you’re away. 🐾💕
About: Hi, my name is Kim and I am prior military. I have worked in veterinary clinics in the past for 6 years before I changed careers and would really love the chance to take care of your baby while you’re away! If you have any questions in particular please feel free to contact me! I am available most days of the week and weekends. I have worked with dogs for over 10 years and can read them very well. I have patience with puppies and I also have experience with senior and special needs dogs to include administering medications by mouth or subcutaneously. I have pets of my own, I let them out every morning and we play while outside with my kids. If I can, or if requested, I will walk them after work. Dogs will not be left in the yard unattended and the neighborhood is great for walking around. I temperament check all dogs I pet sit before booking.
About: I've had pets or lived in homes with pets for most of my life, starting when I was a teenager, so caring for and sharing space with animals has always been a natural part of my everyday life. Over the years, I've become comfortable with the different personalities, routines, and needs that come with sharing a home with animals. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their individual habits and temperament rather than treating every animal the same. I'm attentive to the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure—keeping to their normal routines, giving them plenty of affection and attention, and making sure they have the care and companionship they need while their people are away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are doing well. Above all, I treat caring for someone's pet as a responsibility I take seriously. My goal is for your and your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I have a fairly flexible schedule, so I can be available when your pets need me. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, and for house sitting I'm able to spend much of the day at your home with your pets rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company and a little playtime, or your pets simply need someone around while you're away, I'm happy to work their normal routines into my day. I'll take the time to understand what each pet is used to and make sure they get the care, exercise, attention, and companionship they need. Whether I'm caring for your pets in your home or taking them out for a walk, safety comes first. I take the time to understand each pet's personality, routine, and boundaries, and I'll follow your instructions carefully. When house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want from someone staying in mine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, keep things clean and tidy and in their place, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual or out of the ordinary. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the booking, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pets are happy and doing well. If I notice anything concerning, I'll let you know promptly rather than assuming it's nothing. My goal is for you to feel comfortable knowing that your pets—and your home—are in good hands while you're away.
About: With previous experience in dog grooming and multiple pet experiences ranging from small dogs to large I’ll ensure proper care and handling of your pet! Working under contract so work schedule is certain if there is a time you scheduled I will certainly be more than happy to be there. Currently have a toy poodle that is happy and healthy, housed with a big fenced yard and a lot of toys I’ll ensure your pet is accompanied with the upmost care and respect.
“I’ve never seen Moose smile so big, he must have really loved his walk. Kaydence worked with me to find a time that could work for both of us at the last minute which Moose and I appreciated so much! He’s a very large puppy and that was his first Rover walk and Kaydence did great with him:) We’ll definitely be booking with Kaydence again.”
About: Over two decades of experience taking care of client's dogs, cats and exotics primarily working in client's homes to ensure the companion animals are safe and happy at home. I work in education, so my schedule is extremely flexible this Summer. I would be honored to be trusted carer of your pets and home while you need to be away! I find my expertise is working with client's pets in their own home and consistently maintaining the routine they and their pets are used to.
“She is so wonderful to my boy, treats him like her own and takes good care to tire him out on walks. He always looks like he is having so much fun with her and I am always relieved he is being taken care of when I’m at work”
About: Hi there my name is Kaeti. I have plenty of experience dog sitting and can provide references upon request! My hope is to provide a comfortable environment for your family member while you are on vacation. :) I'm currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to check on your family members and take care of them! I'm pretty open and flexible. I would prefer to care for dogs at my clients home. I may be able to care for animals at my house depending on the client.

Responsive, professional, and reliable! Joyce is all we could have hoped for when we began our search for a weekly dog walker for our puppy. We particularly appreciated her willingness to learn our training approach so things remain consistent for him. Highly recommend Joyce as a caretaker for your pup.
Coal is a natural with animals. He has been filling in for my regular dog walker for the last month. He is personable, knowledgable and best of all my lab loved him. He responded quickly to requests or texts and kept me notified as well. Would highly recommend him.

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

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.
