About: I love all animals of course! I personally have two cats and big dog myself. I have had animals of all kinds growing up and love all like they’re my own! I can’t wait to become your animals best friend😊 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care throughout the day. Pet care is part of my daily routine, so I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays while making sure pets get plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow their routine, constant supervision, keep their environment clean and secure, and make sure they have plenty of love, exercise, and attention. I’ll also respect your home, follow any special instructions, and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10. I would frequently pet sit for my neighbors when they went on trips, and took care of my own animals (a cat, 3 dogs (1 large, 2 small) and fish). I’m quite used to staying up overnight with small puppies for whatever they need, and work best with a specific schedule and instructions to ensure each and every pet is cared for properly! I’m currently attending college in the mornings until around 11:00, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets past noon. Contact me about specific dates! For day sitting and walks I’m glad to take them to the pet park, to go get a pup cup, or even just play in your backyard. For overnight care, I’m happy to stay in house to keep their schedule consistent and stick to any schedule you provide.
About: I've spent my entire life around dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities. My family has always had at least one dog in the household-right now we have four-so I've experienced almost every stage of canine care. I raised my own goldendoodle, Paisle, through an extremely energetic puppy phase, and I've also cared for senior dogs, including our family cocker spaniel who faced health issues and became sensitive in his later years. I am comfortable handling both large dogs and small breeds. This lifelong, hands-on experience helps me understand each dog's unique needs and provide patient, reliable care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for multiple dogs at home. I keep a consistent schedule with feeding, walks, playtime, and individual attention, so adding another pet into my routine feels natural. I’m also a full-time student, but during the summer I’m not busy with classes, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability for drop-ins, walks, or longer stays. Whether it’s daily care or weekly check-ins, I’m organized, reliable, and always make sure each pet gets the attention they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment that matches each dog’s needs and routine. I follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, crate training, or preferred walking routes. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and I’m patient with dogs who are shy, high-energy, or adjusting to a new space. I also keep communication open with frequent updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that helps your dog feel as secure with me as they do with you.
About: I am a full-time online college student working to finish my degree this year. I love animals and would love the opportunity to care for yours. I can work weekends and holidays as well as everyday whenever i’m needed. I have one service animal living in my apartment but am prepared for any baths, medications, or cuddles needed for yours! I can also crate your furry friend if preferred. I am a full-time college student taking classes online so I will be available whenever I’m needed in person! I am also available for same-day appointments. I can crate your dog when needed but I’m there to give them as much as attention as they want and can easily follow care instructions.
“Thomas does a great job caring for my pup. Lots of photos/videos to keep me updated. Always ensured there was food, water. My pup was always greeted with head taps and ear scratches keeping him happy. Thanks Thomas!”

About: I’ve grown up around many of my own pets as well as other peoples that I’ve cared for throughout my neighborhood. I’m not a party person nor do I have many friends.

Sitting does not affect my routine at all, I plan my weeks to fit sitting for pets I like to make sure that animals are fed and happy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 386 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sylvania. 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 Sylvania. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Sylvania.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Sylvania. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
