About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m patient, responsible, and dependable, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m also happy to follow specific routines and instructions to make sure each dog gets the care they’re used to. I’ll treat every dog like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love and attention! I’m a senior in high school who gets out of school at 11:40 a.m., so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I’m open to working around each pet’s routine and needs. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can provide regular check-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get some exercise, as well as seven friendly dogs who are used to being around other pets. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. I’ll always keep a close eye on your pet and make sure they receive the attention, care, and supervision they need.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have had one or two dogs of my own for most of my life. I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds and personalities and have experience raising dogs from puppyhood, which has given me a lot of patience and confidence with all kinds of behaviors. I’m especially comfortable with high-energy and strong-willed dogs. I’m an active walker and runner, so I’m happy to give energetic pups plenty of exercise through long walks or even jogs. I also have experience with gentle, compassionate leash training for dogs who are still learning. I’m currently puppy-less for the first time and would love to pour that extra love, attention, and energy into caring for your dog as if they were my own. I work from home as a travel advisor and maintain a flexible, self-managed schedule. This allows me to easily accommodate daytime drop-in visits, and I keep my availability updated on a weekly basis. While I’m not able to board pets in my own home, I’m happy to provide frequent drop-in visits or overnight pet sitting in your home, as trust allows. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow your established schedule and activities so your dog or cat can maintain a sense of normalcy while you’re away.
“They were wonderful with Teddy. They cared for Teddy and sent us so many awesome pictures and videos. We will definitely be booking with them again in the future.”
About: I've had my main sqeeze for 11 years now! He is full blooded GSD. I raised from 8 weeks and his name is Scout. I now have his son Archie which is 2 years old. And just welcomed a 3rd GSD which is also Scouts son. I have a true passion for fur babies, so its easy to connect to them. Im trusted and very informative when it comes down to drop ins and walks or any other needs, by sending real time photos and videos so you can see and be informed. Im flexible and can also chat via text or call before booking. I live close to Richmond Hill and Hinesville. Your babies will be in good, trusted hands! I have about 3 full time clients during the weeks! But do drop ins every day for ones who need help and have last minute out of town situations. I am free during the week with only doing Rover for now, as I just transitioned out of the military. I have 3 dogs of my own! So I actually have a regular sitter as well. Safety is 1st and foremost to me. My goal is to always make sure they are taken care of and safe. If there are any specific issues or needs, Ive got you covered.
About: With my own dog and two cats at home, I am an animal lover to all pets! I find so much enjoyment in playing with animals! I have open availability most of my days so I can take care of your pet as often as needed. Whether it be a short stop in or a few hours play time and care! I have my own transportation and will give many updates about the pets as needed! Please feel free to reach out and message me regarding any jobs/questions! I am currently working part time so I have an open availability to take care of pets as often as needed whether it be a quick walk or play time. I have done dog walking for many years with my own dog and friend’s dogs. I care for animals as if they are my own so you can be stress-free in knowing your fur baby is being taken care of!
About: Hi! I have had dogs since I was born. Older, younger, smaller, larger, much larger. I have been dog watching since around age 14 or so. I currently have one chiweenie (13), my sweet baby, whom I had to leave for a bit because of schooling, though I tend to her weekly. I also volunteer at a nearby animal shelter to help out the understaffed staff with all of their animals as well! I am currently working part-time as of now, but I will be very open as soon as I begin to gain a clientele! Message me or request times, and I will be very happy to come sit your pups! I will mostly be offering client home sittings, as my home is on a non-fenced, multi-acre piece of land. Safety for your pup is very important to me, so we might take a trip to a nearby dog park if they are residing with me for an allotted time.

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 Townsend. 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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
