About: I have always loved dogs and started caring for my friends and family’s when I was 12! Since then, I’ve found myself watching multiple dogs, staying the week at the pet owner’s home, and routine check ins for walks, feeding, and to let out. I have experienced strong and responsive dogs, so I feel confident caring for any type of dog! My part-time job does not start until June 22, so until then I have a wide open schedule! I also have my own car, so transportation will not be an issue! I treat every home as my own, leaving it the way I found it. I also care for the dogs as I would care for my own, and make sure to follow any specific instructions!
“Beth was amazing! She walked our dog every day for a week. She bonded with our dog, who is cautious and was hesitant to walk at first. Beth managed to get her to relax and go on nice walks every day.”
About: Hello! My name is Shelby and I am a recent grad from Georgetown University! After years of volunteering at LaMancha animal rescue and dog walking / pet sitting on the Wag app, my favorite way to spend my spare time is with furry friends. I would love to meet some new fur babies on Rover!! I work from 8:00-4:30 every weekday, but my weekends are very open. I’m an early bird so I have no problem stopping by before work, and I have access to a car so I don’t mind a long(ish) journey :) I am comfortable crating dogs and attentive to feeding/medication details. As a pet lover, you bet I’m comfortable playing with and giving lots of belly rubs to your furbaby !
“If I could give Vu 10 Stars rating I would. For example, Vu was on his family vacation and I had sent him a text and right away he responded. Another example of Vu going beyond the scope of his job is that he came to pick up my dogs for a walk and noticed one of the dogs had vomited. Vu could've left the vomit there for me to clean up when I got home, but instead he cleaned up the mess and informed me. In addition, he has also pulled my garbage into the house. Being a single moms it's the little things Vu has done that has great tremendous help for me and my dogs. I can't speak highly enough of Vu. He's always letting me know if he's coming early or running late due to traffic. My dogs just loves Vu.”
“Michaela is a very responsive and attentive care taker. She took excellent care of our goldendoodle while we were away for a wedding. Our girl took an immediate liking to Michaela. Would recommend wholeheartedly and book her again whenever needed.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the beginning of my adult life. My family dog I trained as a puppy, learning the acute patience required to not only train a reactive dog but give a reactive dog the care and companionship she deserves. From this, I learned how to walk, feed, train, bathe, and even groom pets all in attempt to give my dog the best life she deserves. I’m currently a graduate student at IU, so I’m always free to walk your pups in the morning or evening! I have great weekend availability from Friday to Sunday, meaning you can take those short trips without the added stress of finding a pet friendly hotel! Dogs need exercise to live a full and happy life! My idea of walking and sitting is making sure your pup is active and healthy, whether that means going for long walks or playing fetch in the park. I have experience with reactive dogs, so depending on your dog, I can make adjustments to the walks I take that is safe for both the dog and other people as well.
About: HI! I've had dogs in my household from the time I was born. Any breed, age, or size, they've been loved and well taken care of in my home. I've raised a few puppies of my own for others and currently have a 5-year-old Great Pyrenees Bernadoodle Mix. I got her private training lessons which not only trained her beautifully but expanded my knowledge and experience with dogs. Each dog has a unique personality and sometimes unique schedule, that I am happy to care for in order for them to live a happy stress-free life. I look forward to meeting your special pup and taking great care of them! Left my corporate job to become an independent artist which has given me incredible flexibility. I’m available to step away to check in on your pup, take them for a nice walk, give them company and lots of pets while you’re away for the day. Currently don’t offer day care at my home. So this does not apply to my services but got to fill in the words to save
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I worked at a Dog Kennel for 6 years. I would typically take care of 20+ dogs by myself. I am comfortable with all types of dogs at any age! From scared old pups to crazy hyper pups! I have taken care of dogs that were over 15 years old who couldn’t walk and puppies who were trying to eat everything they saw. I know my way with dogs pretty well and I’ve never met a dog that I couldn’t handle. My schedule is currently only open after 5pm Monday through Friday and any time on the weekends! I am able to do walk in to check on the pups and walks! I always try to get to know the owner and dog before taking care of the pup or staying in the clients home. I prefer meeting both client and dog about a week before starting to take care of the pups just so everyone is comfortable!
About: I have been a lifetime pet owner, with all different kinds of pets including geckos, dogs, cats including puppies and kittens. I love to take dogs on walks, hikes, and even up to 3 mile runs depending on what you'd like for your dog! I have worked with all types of dogs including those with behavioral issues as well. I currently own two cats and a dog, so reliable pet care and dog walking are always apart of my daily routine! I enjoy taking care of my pets in all fashions like walking, brushing, feeding, and playing. I am a very flexible person, so pet care in your home could be what you would want from me! I bring my own small training treats, but normally would expect pet owners to provide leashes/harnesses so their pet is comfortable and used to these accessories.

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.
