“Sarah is absolutely wonderful. She and her family invited my pup into their home and treated him like he was one of their own. She kept me up to date on how he was doing, sent lots of pictures, spoiled him with treats, and allowed him to get comfortable in her home. I’ll absolutely have Sarah watch my pup again when I need a sitter.”

“First time using a dog sitter and I honestly couldn’t have asked for better experience!!! He sent us lots of pictures and updates on how the dogs were doing while we were away.”
“Ryleigh was great. She's a genuine animal lover. She boarded my kitty for a week and everything went smoothly. She sent photo updates, which was greatly appreciated since I was pretty nervous about sending my cat off to be boarded for the first time. I will definitely reach out and have her board my cat again if the situation arises. Thanks Ryleigh!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Jordan and Jon. We are so thankful we found them to watch our dog, Koda! ❤️ From the moment we dropped him off, we could tell he was going to be in great hands. They sent us so many updates and pictures, and it was clear how much love and attention he was getting. Koda came home happy and clearly had a great time! They were incredibly kind, attentive, accommodating, and made the whole experience so easy and stress-free for us. We will definitely be reaching out to them again whenever we’re in town. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend to anyone!!”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. Owning my own for the past 3 years. I have gone through 2 years of dog training to be the best pet parent I can be and would now like to use my skills to help others. I am a full time teacher during the day. At night I enjoy spending time at home, walking if it is nice weather, and cuddling with my furry friends. I live in an apartment setting, so safety is my utmost priority. I ensure that the dogs I care for are on a leash, under my supervision at all times outside. Indoors we keep all doors shut to eliminate any unwanted messes.
“Meaghan was great with our two dogs Stella and Brickle! Brickle has bad separation anxiety and has destructive behaviors if left alone so finding a dog sitter for him has been such a big challenge and Meaghan agreed without hesitation! She took both dogs on several walks a day, sent photos and updates, and cared for them like family! Definitely recommend Meaghan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and honest pet sitter!”
“Bella has gotten to stay with Ashtyn and Scott twice now, and she has had a blast each time. She gets to be involved in everything that goes on with them and gets lots of lovins and attention. With quick responses and lots of updates/photos, Ashtyn and Scott are my go-to when I need to know Bella is being taken care of in good hands.”
About: I am Dog and Cat First Aid certified through the American Red Cross. I know leaving your furry family members behind is never easy, which is why I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I grew up around all kinds of animals, I am farm boy and I love hanging out with animals, especially dogs. They are cute and adorable angels. I provide attention, personalized care, scratches and lots of love. My goal is to give you total peace of mind while you're away. I maintain a structured daily routine that centers around regular feeding times, consistent potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. Whether your pet thrives on high-energy morning walks or quiet evening cuddles, I seamlessly integrate their normal routine into my day to keep them happy and comfortable. Safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-proofed environment free of hazards, with designated quiet zones for resting and secure outdoor areas for play. For in-home visits, I strictly follow your pet's exact boundaries, dietary rules, and home guidelines to ensure a stress-free experience from start to finish.
About: I have had dogs since I was a child. Anything from Dachshunds to Great Danes. I have been through formal training with a good amount of my dogs. I am the pack leader. I love cuddles and often all dogs can be found sitting close to me. I would love a rescue someday. I work from home and am able to take the dogs out often throughout the day. Our dogs sleep with me on their mats in my bedroom. I can feed and water them as much as needed. I watch them often, listen for que’s and or energy change. I am the pack leader, so they know Mama is in charge. I make sure water is full at all times, feed them as needed, give lots of loves and other care such as baths, cleaning ears, etc.
“Ashlee was wonderful with our two dogs! She brought them on a walk, cuddled them, brought them for a pup cup (after asking if it was okay!) And send lots of pictures and updates. We felt totally comfortable leaving our babies with Ashlee and will definitely reach out to her for future needs!”
“If you’re considering Elizabeth and Nathan to watch your dog, you definitely should. They were amazing and sent photos multiple times a day. My dog ended up thinking this was her home after 4 days!”
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I grew up with pets and have had my own boxer mix for the past 8 years, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. With over 10 years of experience in veterinary medicine, I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages and medical needs, including giving medications and helping with post-surgery recovery. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a laid-back senior, or just needs lots of love and attention, I'll care for them like they're my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have my own pet and already structure my day around providing attention, exercise, and care. I work Monday through Friday, and i can provide care before work, during my hour-long lunch break, and after work for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. On weekends, I have even more time to dedicate to longer walks, cuddles, and fun activities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and truly at home. I meet each pet where they are and build trust at their pace, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and reserved. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’re welcome on the couch, the bed, and anywhere they feel comfortable. My gentle 11-year-old boxer gets along well with other pets and helps create a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care every step of the way.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. This allows me to not only recognize the varied needs and behaviors that different pets may have, but also and be able to sympathize and cater to those specific needs and behaviors while creating bonds with each animal. I have availability for drop in visits and walks Monday-Friday at 10am and boarding (in my home) Friday-Sunday. I also offer doggy park field trips on Fridays at 11:30. I offer pet care (in clients home, or mine for dog friendly pups) whether it’s feeding, bathing, or stimulating playtime and long walks. I have reliable means of transportation and enjoy going to the dog park or on other fun adventures with the pups. I also have a friendly 10 year old tibetan spaniel that loves to tag along if you’re dog enjoys company from furry friends, however I am very understanding of the fact that dogs have different social behaviors and that some dogs require one on one time. A pet in my care will never be put into a situation that puts their or anyone else’s safety at risk.
“First time using Rover. I am very happy to have found Torey. Being a dog mom who has only sent my dogs to stay with family and friends I was very nervous to send my dogs to a stranger's house. But Torey put me at ease right away at our meet and greet. She is very knowledgeable in all type of animals, ages, and accommodation needs. She walked us through the process and how the set up would be in her home. Our dogs were able to meet her dog to ensure they'd be comfortable together. During our week away Torey sent me daily updates and pictures. I appreciated her thoughtfulness!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Walton
We continue to use Emily and her lovely family to care for our dog! It is not easy to leave our 17 y/o dog behind, but she has gotten too old to travel. Emily (and family) take such great care of her. I have already recommended her to friends and will continue to use her if needed!
We have used Emily and her lovely family to care for our senior dog on 2 different occasions and we will not hesitate to reach out again if needed. They have been so flexible and kind both times. I appreciate the great and timely communication. It can be a little nerve wracking leaving an older dog (with some issues) but Emily made us feel very comfortable! 10/10 recommend!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
99% of sitters in Walton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Walton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Walton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Walton. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
You and your Walton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 sitter 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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
