“Graham has become Keisha's best friend! She's getting the exercise and attention she needs when I'm not around or unable to get out with her myself.”

“This was our first scheduling with Todd. He took time to do a meet/greet with my large Akita Yuki. Todd was very patient with her. He was not rushing at all, and genuinely took the time to let Yuki warm up to him. My girl Yuki is 120 lbs, I could tell right away Todd was very comfortable with big dogs. For the first walk, Todd updated the Rover card with tons of pictures and information. I love having all the walk updates. I am so pleased to have found Todd. He is an experienced dog handler. As a nurse, I would definely recommend Todd to anyone needing coverage for their pup!”

“Aria is so great! She does great report cards, is communicative and tires out my little black lab on the days I have to be in the office, which is a huge help. Highly recommend booking her!”

“I'm very pleased to find such a reliable person to take care of my dog! Stacie is friendly, caring, accommodating and professional. I received confirmations and photos from each walk promptly. Thank you so much, Stacie! I will definitely use your services again!”

“Nancy has been an amazing dog walker for us over the past two weeks. She is responsible, respectful, and punctual. Nancy is incredibly kind and helpful, and we felt completely at ease knowing our beloved Larry was in her care. Thank you, Nancy, for everything you’ve done we truly appreciate it. It was a pleasure having you take care of Larry!”

About: I take myself on multiple long walks every day and nothing brings me more joy than providing fun and safety for another living thing, I've only ever lived with dogs thar belonged to my partners but loved and cared for them like my own and cherished every moment of their company. If you allow me the privilege of getting to know your little friend(s), I will bring every bit of that love to their time with me (and they'll never have to chase me down for a walk!) I work part time remotely on a flexible schedule so I am always available for last minute bookings and am never too busy to attend to pets if any issue comes up while they are in my care. I am always extremely respectful of others spaces and make sure to leave everything just as it was when I'm given the chance to care for the space, and religiously ensure that all pet care tasks are handled promptly, my favorite of which is playing with them and keeping them company!

“Joe is amazing! I have a giant, high energy doberman and the average person has trouble handling him. Joe knew exactly how to keep him engaged and well-behaved during walks while still giving him tons of positive praise. Joe has a LOT of experience and has a great, calm, confident energy. My dog LOVES him and I feel so at ease knowing my dog is in good,professional hands!”


“Cassi did an awesome job walking our dog Archie while we on vacation! She definitely has a talent for connecting with animals. Highly recommend reaching out to Cassi to help care for your pet!”

About: Never in my life have I been without animal companionship. Many of the dogs I have lived with or cared for have been troubled rescues or otherwise special needs. I have a lot of experience, including a year working for a boarding place for large dogs, regularly dogsitting aggressive and delicate dogs, experience working for a reptile shop, alongside owning various reptiles, rodents, dogs, and cats. I am an online student with only 8 classes per week, giving me a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to work at my own pace and from any location. Outside of my coursework, I have no responsibilities that would impede my ability to petsit. I avoid kenneling unless requested by the owners of an animal. I prioritize building trust with the animals I watch. I achieve this by allowing the animal to pace our interactions. I can be as energetic as I can be patient or firm.
“I really appreciate Jenna’s help walking Parsley. Parsley loves her and has a lot of fun on their walks. She gets so excited every time she sees Jenna! I feel very comfortable leaving my babe in her care, and she is very thorough and accommodating. Thank you Jenna!”


About: I have experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, dog walking, and caring for pets for family, friends, and clients. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and following specific care instructions. I’m reliable, responsible, and treat every pet like my own to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and lots of attention throughout the day to keep your pet happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions, maintain their routine, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and send regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I am only available work 11 am to 5 pm. I worked in a shelter and helped out a little with the dogs and have had pets my whole life. I get along very well with animals, including very shy animals. I'm a freelance artist with a very free schedule and I can drop in anytime that you may need me to be there. I understand the regularity of a pet's schedule is very important! I can crate a pet if needed and am very careful with an animal's boundaries to insure safety and comfort for your pet and myself.
University dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous having a stranger come by that had never met my Daisy girl, but Felicia was great & made all of my worries vanish! She sent notice upon arrival, sent a photo of my fur babe chilling at the park in the shade, & let me know how my pups walk was going while on the walk. Couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable situation for both my pup and myself! 100% will book again with Felicia! 🐾🧡✨

Mila has been fantastic with my dog. She's reliable, professional, and always easy to communicate with. Most importantly, my pup absolutely loves her and is always excited to see her. It's clear that Mila genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and I always felt completely comfortable knowing Stella was in great hands. Leaving your dog with someone else can be nerve-racking... Especially when it's your first time, as it was for us. Having someone I could trust made all the difference and allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying. I highly recommend Mila to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker!

Nancy has been an amazing dog walker for us over the past two weeks. She is responsible, respectful, and punctual. Nancy is incredibly kind and helpful, and we felt completely at ease knowing our beloved Larry was in her care. Thank you, Nancy, for everything you’ve done we truly appreciate it. It was a pleasure having you take care of Larry!
