About: I've had pets in my world my whole life. I grew up with dogs, cats and many small critters. Animal care is like second nature to me! My kids grew up in a one or two dog household, which I raised and trained as puppies and cared for during their senior years. Currently I am the proud owner of Finnley, my 4 year old black Labrador Retriever. I've raised and trained her since she was eight weeks old. Through consistent positive training, she has mastered basic commands and has become an active well-behaved companion. Because of my daily routine of walking and hiking at least 2 miles every day, I have the stamina and enthusiasm to give energetic dogs the quality exercise and playtime they need. In addition to dogs, I also have deep personal experience with cats. I lovingly cared for a sweet feline, Sadie from a kitten through her senior years- she lived to the ripe age of 13. Whether you have an energetic pup who needs a brisk walk or an independent cat who needs gentle attention or food routines maintained, I understand how to read different pet personalities. I am currently working part-time and have plenty of time to care for your pet. I can provide reliable daily walks or drop-in services to keep your pet(s) happy. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet(s) in someone else's hands. I will follow feeding, walking, and household instructions to the letter, double check all doors and gates and never take unnecessary risks on walks. I will treat every animal in my care like a member of my own family.

About: My entire life I have owned at least 3 pets. From foster cats, to my own cats, dogs, neighbors dogs, etc. I am a pet person through and through. I have a range of ages of animals I’ve taken care of - from dogs in elderly stages to 2 week old kittens. I work from home and am constantly taking quick walks around the block during the day to keep my energy up and get outside. Love to explore with a buddy! We have experience cat sitting in our home and all goes smoothly. We ensure doors are closed and locked at all times so there is a 0% chance of escaping. We also live next to a bike trail for great long dog walks!

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention, companionship, and affection they deserve while you’re away. We currently have a sweet 9-year-old small dog who has been part of my life since puppyhood. I personally raised and potty-trained her, so I understand the patience, consistency, and care that goes into helping a dog feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I’ve also cared for many of my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs over the years. When your dog stays with me, they won’t simply be “boarded”—they’ll be welcomed into a loving home. From the moment they arrive, I’ll treat them like one of my own, with lots of love, attention, playtime, and companionship. I’m dependable, responsible, and will make your dog’s comfort and happiness a priority. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for, loved, and treated like family while you’re away. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention, companionship, and affection they deserve while you’re away. As a result, my schedule is quite flexible to meet the needs of you and your fur baby I have a very large yard and a 9 year old gentle, sweet dog. Although I have a large yard, I always keep my dog leashed and I would do the same for yours to ensure safety. My home is on a quiet cul-de-sac in a private neighborhood that is perfect for walks.

About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and truly enjoy helping others keep their pets happy, comfortable, and safe when they can’t be there. I have over 20 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets as well as pets belonging to friends and family. I’m the person my friends and family trust and call when they need someone to care for their pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether it’s providing companionship, playtime, walks, feeding, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I’m happy to help. ❤️🐶🐱 I have plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, walks, and lots of love and attention. Your pet will have companionship and supervision while in my care, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and at home. I have a fully fenced-in yard where your pet can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and get plenty of exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and loving home environment with lots of attention and supervision. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide so they feel safe, happy, and at home while in my care.

About: Hello pet parents! I find great fulfillment in caring for and nurturing your pets. Caring for pets also gives me a wonderful outlet to indulge my intense and immense love for dogs! While I might lack decades of experience working with our furry friends, I believe I more than make up for it with my enthusiasm for learning and affection for doggies! All I can promise is that you shall not regret working with me! I work from home remotely for my day job, which affords me plenty of spare time to spend with your fur babies! The nature of my job also enables me to take my furry friends out for a walk during working hours no problem. I am available for walks and drop in visits on all weekdays; for your dog boarding or house sitting needs, I am available seven days a week. I have a family member living with me who is retired and stays home full time, so there will be at least one responsible adult looking after your precious pet(s) at all times!

“Met Josh for an interview and he took his time coming through the door to make sure my dog was comfortable, that was great. We all went for a walk and chatted about what I was expecting as an owner and what was best for my dog. I hired him for a few walks to see how it went and everything was wonderful. Very respectful, sent photos and updated me when he arrived, walked and left. We are very happy to have someone so responsible and kind when we are gone from the house. Shorty says Hire Josh :)”

About: I have been pet sitting for over 10 years. I will make your family member very comfortable in my home as if it were my own. I can also administer medication if necessary and go for nice walks. I work during the school year and I have summers off. I am available during the week and I am available on most weekends as well. I can be flexible with my schedule. I have my own home and a very nice yard to be outside in. I have very nice neighborhoods to walk in nearby and can go for walks daily. I have 2 older sons that are here in the evening when they get home from work that love all the dogs and will also give lots of love and attention! I have comfortable dog beds and lots of toys for them to play with. I also have a crate if your dog feels comfort in being in one and wants one to retreat to.

About: I've been blessed to grow up with a pet best friend my entire life whether from dogs & cats to hamsters, guinea pigs, and parakeets. My wife and I will treat your pet as it is our own! My wife works remotely from home and I am a PhD student with a flexible schedule and weekend availability. Our schedules allow for frequent walks, bathroom breaks, play time, and lots of attention. We also have a rescued 1yr old goldendoodle who is neutered and loves other dogs. Your pet will never feel alone! While safety is our top priority, your pet's happiness and care is just as important. We live in a 3-story townhouse with an unfenced yard but live across the street from a park where we take our dog on daily walks. There also a few nearby dog parks if you prefer for your dog to run off-leash. Your pet will have full range to our entire home and we will make sure they feel right at home!

About: Ever since I was a kid it was my duty to take care of pets. Had 2 birds, 2 Guinea pigs, beta fish, cat and a dog. Cared for each one day in and day out. My first experience with animal care was probably age 11/12 caring for a family friend’s cats and dog. Daily walks, routine meals, etc. My favorite part of pet care is being able to meet each pet’s needs. Along with getting know their personalities. Funny enough I’m writing this paragraph whilst taking care of this pup while his parents are on holiday. Currently working 4 days a week as a dental hygienist. The other days are pretty much free. Would love to spend it caring for folks pets. Quite flexible, take your pets needs into consideration. Always diligent, poignant and kind. Animals have such love to give, it’s not in a their nature to hate. That’s why I care deeply for them. Now that I’m on my own, the apartment I live in only allows me to have my pet turtle. He will be 4 years old this upcoming fall. He’s a red eared slider with lots of personality.

Isabel is excellent! She came over to meet the dogs in advance and left me with a ton of confidence that my dogs would be well taken care of. She provided constant communication including when she arrived, if they went to the bathroom, if she gave them treats (which I gave her permission to do), and when she left. I will definitely ask her to walk the dogs again!

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 Vernon Rockville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Vernon Rockville after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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.

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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 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 Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
