About: I’m Kaylee! I am currently a Sophomore at UD studying Wildlife Conservation and Ecology. I have loved animals all my life and I want to dedicate my life to taking care of them and protecting those in need. I have experience with animal care since I was very young. I have worked as a pet bather at a grooming salon and I have worked at a dog kennel! I am very excited to meet your animals and take the best care of them! I am a Sophomore in college and I have a lot of free time. My free days are The weekends, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I may also be able to work in some Tuesdays and Thursdays. I will make sure that your animals feel safe and are protected while you are away. I bring happy energy to hopefully cheer them up while their family is away!
“Alyssa was great with my Max. Max is a 6 month old rescue pointer mix puppy who is still learning. Even after explaining he may have some reactivity, Alyssa took him for walks without hesitation and he enjoyed every minute. Made this dog momma feel at ease when needing walks in a pinch. Max is one happy puppy.”
About: I’ve owned 3 dogs in my life & all of them I have trained from puppyhood into adulthood. I make sure life is full of play, adventure, and structure. I have been a reliable pet sitter for many of my friends & family! I currently WFH and have a 5 month old puppy. I am able to visit during the daytime starting early afternoon and into the evenings for play, walks, as well as enrichment/activities. I treat your pet and your home as I would mine or if a visitor came to mine. I understand putting the most valuable things in your life into the care of someone else and I take that very seriously. I guarantee professionalism and a visit that follows your instructions from the moment I park, along with your desired routine for your pet during the visit and from locking up and leaving to ensure your pets safety and comfortability.
“Zahira, is a wonderful dog walker. We did a meet and greet , and I knew that she was a good match for Chewy. Chewy before Zahira started walking him suffered from anxiety when I would leave the house for work. Chewy acts much calmer and looks forward to Zahira walking and cuddling him.”
“Elizabeth was fast getting back to me with such a late minute request. I received tons of pictures and a detailed description of my dogs time with Elizabeth. She also stayed longer than she needed to and pepper enjoyed all the play time so much! Would definitely book again, thank you ?”

I have personally owned 3 dogs, a Weimaraner named Bella, pitbull terrier mix named Jay and a toy sized Yorkshire terrier named Chloe. Unfortunately I am no longer a pet owner but I still I hope to be able to watch over some other furry companions to fill the void that has been made by their absence. I have experience as a manager at Petco so not only do I know how to care for dogs, I am well versed in the basic needs for most reptiles, birds, cats, and other small animals.I have no problem accepting pets that are not spayed or neutered for some reason rover won’t let me change that setting on my profile, so please disregard.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12! I have been my family friends’ go-to pet sitter when they travel and take care of my brother’s dog for weeks at a time. I’m currently in school and my schedule varies, but I usually have free time in between classes and would love to use my extra time to spend with your pet! I will respect your home as my own and love your pet as my own too. I am a very neat, organized, and dependable person.
About: I have been a pet owner to most animals over 30 years. I have experience in all breeds of dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even alpacas. I love to play with them in the yard, I make sure they have water at all times and I stick with their schedule for eating. Animals are like my children though I do have human older children too. I will make sure your pet is well taken care of. I have had many dogs over the years and even a few cats. When my children were young they each had their own guinea pig and chicken. Yes I said chicken.!! I recently bought an alpaca who lives on a beautiful farm and I go and visit him often. My main job I work from home but my pets are never by themselves for longer than 4-5 hours. I have owned pets my whole adult life and could never see myself not having this wonderful responsibility! I make sure when arriving at a clients house that I greet each pet. Then we got outside for potty break and playtime. I normally stay about 30 minutes. I make sure they have fresh water and give them a treat if allowed.

Thank you for the opportunity, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Currently working a full time schedule. I clock in at 7:30am & finish between 2:30-3:30pm depending on the week. If you’d like my services anywhere between those times, just need 5 days to a week’s notice prior to booking. Typically free Saturday & Sundays. I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet sitting. During our meet and greet, I ask plenty of questions so I can follow your instructions as closely as possible. I’ll make sure your home remains secure, clean, and respected while you’re away. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing, and I’ll always communicate anything that seems unusual.

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 Waterford. 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 Waterford 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. 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waterford. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
