“Aurelie agreed to walk Zumi on super short notice. From the pictures, Zumi seems to have loved her! She fed her and made sure to give her the probiotics she needed. Aurelie was a lifesaver!”
“Kiyarash is great, thrilled to have found him ! So happy that Théo has a regular attentive dog walker. He is very responsive when I have questions, and Théo seems very happy on their walks together.”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. My first puppy was a Yorkie named Lola, who I got when I was 5 — she was my first love! Animals have always been one of the most meaningful parts of my life, and that hasn’t changed. I currently live with two cats and a dog, including my cat Kai, who is truly my pride and joy and the light of my life. I’d do absolutely anything for him, so I know firsthand what it’s like to love and care for your pet like they’re your child. Growing up, a lot of my volunteer work centered around animals, from helping at shelters to walking dogs in my neighborhood. I’d love to be an extra source of love, care, and support for you and your little one, and hopefully become your pet’s new favorite neighborhood friend! I care for the pets in my house everyday normally - as well as my partners cat. I also just finished the project I was on and have a lot of free time to help support you and your pets! I approach every animal I meet with gentleness and patience. Building trust is extremely important and every animal of different. I’m here to learn what your animal needs from me and adjust my approach intuitively.
About: I have plenty experience with dogs and cats in my personal life and as a walker. Grew up with many animals in the home. I also have year long experience walking dogs for an app. I am currently a student with a lot of free time. I’m available most days, just prefer the afternoon to night time. I mainly offer dog walking but a drop in visit can also be arranged. When it comes to walking dogs, I bring my own potty bags and expect to be provided a collar and leash. While walking I do my very best to avoid other dogs and keep good communication with the owners when needed. With a drop in visit I keep communication open with the owners and focus on the pets while following any written instructions. I do not bring any treats for the pets in case there are dietary issues/allergies it may trigger.
About: As a dog owner myself, who prioritizes my own dogs’ health and exercise needs, I bring an active, meticulous standard to every outing. I cater to your dogs needs, wether you have a puppy, over excited or energetic dog, or a senior dog that needs a slower pace, I am able to adapt to their needs. I have 3 dogs myself, requiring different needs. I also happen to be a very active person and I understand the importance of daily exercise and enrichment for a dog's health and happiness. Because work and busy schedules can make it tough to stay on top of those daily needs, I offer my services to bridge that gap, giving your pup active, structured care while giving you complete peace of mind during your work week. It’s exactly what I offer my dogs too! During walks, safety is the top priority. I maintain active focus on surroundings, leash control, and your dog’s comfort. Afterward, I ensure they are well exercised, hydrated, wiped down, and settled safely in your home before sending you a quick update.
About: Hi! I'm Arvanh 😊 Animal companions have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, there was always some kind of animal around: dogs, cats, fish, parakeets, and even chickens, ducks, and cows when I spent time with family in Laos. Being around these companions just been a normal and joyful part of life for me. One of the biggest reasons I'm here on Rover is because of my dog, Avery. Avery was my best friend for many years and taught me so much about patience, loyalty, and unconditional love. Like most pet owners, I talked to her like she was a person, and planned parts of my day around making sure she was happy. Since losing her, I've realized how much I miss having furry kids in my life and how much I genuinely enjoy caring for them. Over the years, I've become the friend people call when they're heading out of town and need someone they trust to watch their fur babies. I've cared for: -energetic dogs who want to play nonstop, -cats that needed cuddle time and WALKS (wild, I know) -and nervous pets who just need a calm presence while their humans are away. When I care for someone's pet, I try to get to know their personality, routines, and preferences so I can give them the unique attention they deserve. That means: attention, sticking to their routine, and making sure you never have to wonder how they're doing. If you're away, I'll send photos and updates throughout the day because I know personally how comforting it is to see your pet happy and relaxed while you're gone. For house sitting, my goal is simple: keep your pet's life feeling as normal as possible (with some fun of course). We'll stick to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, and whatever routines help them feel comfortable. If needed, I'll also take care of the little things around the house so you can enjoy your trip without worrying. :) For drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, food, water, and care they need during my visit. Whether they want to play fetch, chase a toy, get belly rubs, or even just have someone sit with them for a bit, I'm happy to meet them where they're at. For dog walks, I love letting dogs enjoy the walk at their pace. Some dogs want to power walk the whole neighborhood, while others are on a mission to sniff every tree in sight. Either way, we'll have a good time and you'll get photos afterward so you can see their adventure. At the end of the day, I know that pets aren't "just pets." They're family. I also know how much trust it takes to hand over your keys and leave someone in charge of a furry family member you love. My goal is to make that decision feel easy by giving your companion lots of care, attention, and affection while keeping you updated every step of the way. I'd love to meet you and your furry companion! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. In my professional life, I've worked as an engineer, but right now I'm taking time off and intentionally spending more time focusing on the people, experiences, and things that bring me joy! Including caring for animals! Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I genuinely enjoy making pets a part of my day. I'm also a big believer in keeping owners updated, so sending photos and little updates throughout the day is something I genuinely enjoy, not something I do out of obligation. At this time, I only provide care in my clients' homes. I find that pets are often happiest and most comfortable in a familiar environment where they can stick to their normal routines. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their personality, habits, schedule, favorite activities, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. Every pet is different, and I try to tailor my care to their individual needs. For house sitting, my goal is to make things feel as normal as possible while you're away. I'll follow feeding schedules, provide walks and playtime, give plenty of attention and companionship, administer medications if needed, and keep your home tidy and secure. For drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet has fresh water, food, potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll also keep an eye on their overall well-being and let you know if anything seems unusual. For dog walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and making sure your dog has an enjoyable experience. Some dogs want a brisk walk, while others prefer to stop and sniff every interesting thing they find. I enjoy both! No matter the service, you can expect regular photo updates and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away.
“Mario was fantastic with Luna! He’s very communicative, responsible, takes tons of photos and give updates frequently. I needed someone to help me with walking Luna while I was at work and despite her being a handful, he was incredibly kind, patient, and undaunted by the task. I highly recommend him if you ever need someone to care for your fur babies.”
About: I've had dog experience and handling my entire life, now my wife and I live in a house off campus while in graduate school with our 6 year old GSD, Sammie! Since my graduate program is fully online, I can enjoy being home all day watching over my furry friends with the luxury of taking them out to the lake next door! For pets in my care, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are top priorities. I ensure a secure environment, follow any specific instructions from pet owners, and provide ample affection and attention.
About: With lifelong experience caring for dogs, horses, and cats, I'm an animal lover and horse whisperer. I train my pets, provide energy healing, and enjoy daily walks. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and have the flexibility to design my own schedule. As an energy healing practitioner, I prioritize mindfulness and balance, which extends to my pets. I incorporate playtime, walks, and training when needed into my day, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. During breaks from my meditation and yoga sessions, I find joy in spending quality time with my pets, fostering a nurturing environment. Their companionship enhances my work-life balance, and I often use sound healing techniques to create a calming atmosphere for both myself and my furry friends. Caring for pets in my home is a thoughtful process. I have a fenced yard where your dog can play safely alongside my sweet 15 year old boxer, who loves companionship. I welcome only dogs that are friendly with cats, as my 4 year old indoor cat enjoys their company. I feed all dogs outside, right in front of my kitchen, ensuring a clean and pleasant environment. Cats are fed separately in the kitchen, with their food placed on furniture to keep is safe from curious dogs. For hydration, I have a water fountain for the cats and a water dispenser for the dogs, both inside and outside for the dogs. When needed, I can easily crate your dog at night; my boxer is crate trained but prefers to sleep freely now. I require that you bring your dog and cat with their own bed, food, and treats, ensuring they feel comfortable. Additionally, It's essential that all pets have a collar with a tag and a leash for safety. This structured approach helps create a harmonious atmosphere for all furry friends in my care.
“Sunita has been great! She walks him right on time each time, and even goes above and beyond and walks him a longer than required. She sends photo updates and communicates with me if there are any issues. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had 3 dogs my whole life. Although, I currently done have any; my love for them is still within. Im here to get my itch of pup cured. I love going on walks, so would love to bring your pup along. Can't wait to meet you! I currently work a full time job with two days off. I am very flexible to yours or your pets needs when it comes to before or after my shift. I'm open my days off. I'm looking to come to the pets home since that is their safe place. I do own cats and don't want any foul play when its comes to crossing boundaries.
“Taylor is amazing. She has helped me out multiple times with my high energy pitbull. She’s done house sitting for a week and helps do weekly walks with my dog. It’s such a relief to know my pup is in safe hands and is getting love from Taylor at the same time.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Topanga
Andrea and Michael are just so wonderful. I have had some really bad experiences in the past but they are just incredible. When they boarded my dog for a couple for a couple of days, she was literally sleeping with them in their bed .. They loved her like she was their own. ( Which meant everything after the negative experiences I have had.) They're just so and loving and Andrea could walk for miles and miles !I I don't know how she does it for all the walks, but she's in tiptop shape lol. We could not ask for a better care takers of my beautiful honey beast and we are leaving her soon with them for a week and the only reason I feel comfortable leaving my dog for that time is because of them. Otherwise, I would not leave my dog with anyone else.

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.
