“Elaine was wonderful! She filled in as Sharpie’s dog walker, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. Sharpie can be a little particular, and Elaine was patient, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. She kept me updated, was always on time, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Elaine to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog walker. Thank you, Elaine, for taking such great care of Sharpie!”
“Jessica did a great job with Toby! We really appreciated her taking the time to come meet him first and make sure he was comfortable. The walk went great and we appreciate the cute pictures!”
“Great, energetic young man who is just tremendous. Judson T has been walking our large Bernese Mtn dog for several weeks ( and into the next weeks.) as well as Doggy day care in our home. Can’t say enough about this lovely fellow. A privilege to meet his dogs Strider & Winnie May at our request Thanks Judson!”
About: My family had a couple dogs growing up. I don’t remember a lot about the first but I would walk the second dog whenever I could. There wasn’t a time where I didn’t enjoy walking with her. The next thing I know, my aunt left behind a cat for us. I fed him each morning and night. He was a shy cat but happened to warm up to me quickly. Whenever he got a chance, he’d lay down on my lap. My family ended up with a Rover account. I walked those dogs and fed them whenever one of my family members couldn’t. Recently, we got a couple of cats. I feed these babies each morning and night. Typically I would do their litter too, yet, my family has the blessing of a cat genie. With every animal I’ve met, I make sure they get the attention they deserve, need, and want! Petting and playing around with cats and dogs is one of my favorite things to do. Or I could do the opposite if your animal doesn’t like to be pet! My schedule is really flexible, as I am currently unemployed but hoping I can find something. I am available for any kind of sit or drop in, whether it’s for just one day or for a long while. I like to go climbing and bowling with my boyfriend and friends but I’m stunted with a minor foot problem for the time being. Unfortunately I won’t be able to watch any clients’ pets at my house. In my home, I put my best effort towards my pets to make sure they feel safe in our home. I play with them and let them rest where they find it comfortable. In any of my clients homes, I respect their wants and needs for how their animal should be taken care of. I ask that someone tell me if their dog is potty trained, if they are allowed on couches/furniture, and how often they need to be taken on a walk. I’ll give a lot of play time, pets and belly rubs to the dogs and cats!
“Emily did great for a first meeting and walk with our pup. She can be slow to warm up and Emily was patient and very honest and communicative with how the visit went. Appreciate the extra step of cleaning up a mess our kitties made that wasn’t on the bill!”
“Alura was thankfully and very gratefully able to fit my baby girl into her schedule immediately. While my pup was a little skiddish at first, she warmed up to Alura and was able to go on her walks while I was recovering.”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs, including my own. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide lots of love and attention, and keep them happy and safe while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I’ll make time to give your pet plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and care. I’ll also send regular photo updates! Your pet’s safety comes first. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, provide a safe and loving environment, and keep you updated with photos for peace of mind.
“Jocelyn was absolutely amazing with Duchess. This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Jocelyn was good with Duchess and walked me through the process to help ease my anxiety. 10 out of 10 recommend her anytime!”
“Alexis was prompt and communicative. I sent her to the wrong address first day and she was super flexible and willing to work with me. Appreciated all her help and will be using her services in the future.”
About: I currently have two cats but have also had dogs. I’m experienced with big dogs as my last was a great dane/ german shepherd mix. I’m not afraid of the litter box I’m happy to deal with any pet’s idiosyncrasies. I’m currently between jobs so I have plenty of time to play with your puppies and pet your cats! I’’ll be quickly available and can take as much time as your pets need. I will be primarily doing pet drop ins, where I’ll quickly pop in to feed and exercise your pets. I can also take a longer time during any visit if needed.
“Today was more of a meet and greet with my senior dog. Jack’s got some behavioral issues and isn’t the best with new people. Lyla was great. She had a very calming energy. Jack warmed up to her and was able to settle down and relax in her presence.”
“Lexi is considerate of my dog and my time. She is always on time and gives Lucy's a thorough walk for her time as seen by her pictures and the map. Lucy gets excited when Lexi comes to the door and I look forward to her walks as much as Lucy does.”
About: I grew up around dogs, cats, and horses, so from a young age, I was taught the importance of giving animals the specific care they need to thrive. I’ve been pet sitting since I was a teenager and never pass up the opportunity to make a new furry friend. I’m a work-from-home educator and cat parent just trying to make some extra income, so I will have plenty of free time for snuggles, treats, and chin scratches! I’m also a runner who would love to give your energetic pup the exercise they crave. Please reach out if I sound like a good fit, and I’d love to meet your pet and offer you peace of mind. I’m a teacher with a pretty flexible schedule during the summer, so I will be free every day with the exception of a few weekend trips. I am also a high school distance running coach, so I will occasionally have summer runs with the kids to work around. I live in a small ADU with two cats of my own, so I can only offer pet care in your home. I also find this is the best way to limit stress for your pet and offer you the additional peace of mind of a house sitter if desired. I’m available for drop-in’s for pets who need their space or for overnight visits for those who need more company.
About: I've spent the last 14 years working in veterinary medicine, caring for pets through every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior companions and pets with medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, monitoring pets with chronic health conditions, and recognizing when something doesn't seem quite right. What I enjoy most is getting to know each pet as an individual. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I believe those details matter. My goal is to provide the same level of thoughtful, compassionate care I'd want for my own pets, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in capable hands. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care, plenty of attention, and regular updates throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or simply having someone nearby for company, I'm happy to adjust my care to fit their routine. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs before every booking. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have plenty of opportunities for play, enrichment, rest, and affection in a calm environment. To help keep everyone safe—including my own two dogs—I currently only accept small dogs (up to 30 lbs) for boarding and daycare, and I require a meet-and-greet before every boarding stay. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I do my best to keep their daily routine as consistent as possible while respecting your home and following your instructions carefully.
“Shelbi has been great when getting to know me and my pup. She came over when I needed her unexpectedly to support my puppy when I had to work late. I’m beyond grateful for her help and enjoy knowing my puppy will get to spend time walking with her when I can’t.”
About: Hello! I am 27 years old, and I've always been surrounded by animals, whether they were mine or a friend's. I've cared for all sorts of animals, from fluffy to scaley. I have a soft spot for big personalities, and senior animals. Caring for a dog or cat that requires extra care, whether due to age/health/tempermant, is something I actually really enjoy. I take a lot of pride in having a lot of patience with animals, but I'm also happy to enforce routine and structure for their own benefit! Due to seasonal work, I'm not currently as available as I'd like to be, and will be working a sporadic schedule for the next few months. But other than that, I do my best to be available for whatever the pet needs, whether it be feeding, cleaning litter, taking them on walks, or sitting overnight. My goal is keeping your home just as clean as you left it, and your pet happier! I'm generally a tidy, quiet person so no worries about disturbing the neighbors, and if your dog has special treats or toys I'd love to hear about them!
About: I've always loved animals and knew I wanted to work with them in some capacity. Since I was a kid I've been pet sitting for neighbors, or friends/family and then I started walking dogs in college to make extra money. Now, I have 4 years expirence working with dogs and cats and the occasional ferret and sugar glider as a Veterinary Technician. Your fur baby(babies) will be in safe hands with me and I will love and care for them as my own. I'm available most Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays for drop-ins, playtime or walks with your pets, feel free to message me to set something up <3 Currently I do not have availability for overnight stays. I make sure everyone gets fed, has fresh clean water, I can medicate if needed, I love engaging in interactive play and taking doggos for walks! I have experience reading animal body language too so I know when to take it slower or let them come to me if they seem anxious.
About: I am a dog mom to a young Mini Aussie and Cavalier mix. I have raised her since she was 8 weeks. I also have experience puppy and dog sitting for my friends and neighbors dogs. This includes walks, feeding, playtime, medication, cleaning, and car rides. I have volunteered at local animal shelters to take dogs on neighborhood walks to enrich their day and to help them get adopted. I have taken dogs on hikes and are aware of walking safety and managing dog interactions. I have a flexible work schedule as I work from home. I can be available for a single walk per day or multiple drop in visits per day. Monday and Thursday 9:30am-11am are the only times I will not be available. I can be available to a limited amount of repeat visits per week. Please reach out regarding schedule and booking questions. I understand as a dog parent that sometimes you are needing immediate pet care. I am a reliable, generous and fun dog mom. I will be offering drop in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting from my own home. My home has a fenced outdoor space, open space downstairs and upstairs for dogs to play. I have a very social and friendly dog that gets along with every dog she meets. We have many blankets and you are welcome to bring over any of your dogs favorite beds and comfort toys. I always have kibble and dog treats and feeding bowls on hand. Please feel free to bring your own as well.

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

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.
