About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family and deserve the very best care. I am dependable, punctual, and detail-oriented, and I take pride in following care instructions exactly as requested to help keep your pet comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets who require extra attention, including administering medications, monitoring health concerns, following special feeding instructions, and maintaining medication schedules. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and care, I am committed to meeting their individual needs with kindness and compassion. My husband says we’re not allowed to add any more pets to our family, so I’d love the opportunity to spoil yours instead! My goal is to make both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and to treat every furry family member as if they were my own. As a stay-at-home wife, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and accommodate a variety of booking requests. Communication is very important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and quick responses for added peace of mind while you’re away. I am happy to care for pets in either my home or the client’s home, depending on what works best for the pet and owner. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, exercise, playtime, medication schedules, and lots of love and attention. I follow all instructions carefully and provide regular updates and photos to keep owners informed while their pets are in my care.
“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”

“Alexa is awesome! She's always on time, asks if Moose or I need anything (I just had knee replacement surgery) and brushes Moose after ever walk! He's always happy to see her! She's a keeper!”

About: Hi! I’m Brittany, and I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. As the proud owner of a happy 5-year-old French Bulldog, I understand that pets are family and deserve patience, love, and personalized care. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, administering basic medications, and caring for dogs with unique personalities and needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages, giving you peace of mind throughout your time away. My Services 🐾 Dog Boarding 🐾 House Sitting 🐾 Drop-In Visits 🐾 Dog Walking Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. As the owner of a 5 yr old Frenchie, my days already revolve around walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, and making sure my own dog is happy and healthy. Because caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s easy to incorporate additional pets into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so every dog gets the attention, exercise, and one-on-one care they deserve. Whether it’s an early morning walk, midday potty break, afternoon play session, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet receives consistent care and plenty of affection. I truly love spending time with animals! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to keep pets comfortable, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality because some dogs love to play all day, while others are happiest relaxing with belly rubs and cuddles. In a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would want for my own. I make sure pets feel safe in their familiar environment, keep everything clean and tidy, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners can enjoy their time away without worrying. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. They receive plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable place to relax. I keep plenty of clean toys, orthopedic beds and blankets on hand so your pet feels at home. My goal is always to make them feel loved and at home.
About: I have taken care of a vast majority of pets but mostly cats and dogs. I have watched over many dog breeds especially ones with certain medical needs I am currently an online only student so I have plenty of free time to offer clients for those pets that need it. I can make the best out of any situation. Coming into a client’s home I will always ask the routine and/or needs your pet(s) has and make sure to keep them company when they need it
“Jaz is wonderful. She showed for me up last minute for a dog walk, and she always responds to messages promptly. You can tell she really cares about the dogs under her care as if they were her own dogs. I don’t think I could recommend anyone better!”

About: I’ve taken care of little ones all the way to seniors. I am very comfortable in walks, grooming, preparing meals, house sitting, giving medication, park trips and house calls. Animals are my weakness, I absolutely adore them! I currently work part-time and I make my own schedule. I am very flexible and I can be where I’m needed with short notice. I am pretty open on weekends, as well. I will follow the guidelines you give me. I typically prefer a list of some sort, or instructions and I follow that exactly. I am experienced in crate training, if needed.
About: I’ve cared after dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities! I have spent extra time with puppies, I could help in teaching various tricks and obedience behaviors using balanced training. I also have a knack for cooperative care training, if your dog requires any special kind of attention. Anxious and nervous dogs hold a special place in my heart, nothing is more rewarding than watching them break out of their shell. Dogs rule my life, I like it that way. I myself get the zoomies and have the energy to burn your pup out!! My home can accommodate any needs, as well as I. Busy schedule? No sweat, consider me a body double! I have three well socialized and friendly dogs to keep yours company if they want it. I also have crates, if your dog prefers some independence. I have a fenced in yard, and plenty of yard to run on. I keep a very structured routine and max play groups at 4 dogs. The perfect home if your dog cannot tolerate high volume facilities.
“Taylor has been very helpful. She has come and walked our very energetic dog on a weekly basis and I have had 0 difficulties getting ahold of her or getting feedback about how everything went. She is very sweet and a great choice for your pet!”

About: I have 8 years of experience, working with both puppies and providing compassionate senior care. Your furry family members will be treated like my own when they are in my care! I currently work part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I work in a restaurant so some days I’m off as early as 1 and others days not until 3. I don’t work any evenings! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort and well-being.

We really needed someone to help walk our dog Sadie. We greatly appreciate everything Emma has done for us. She walked her in the rain even longer than the scheduled time today. My wife and I definitely recommend her for any dog care and I am certain other animal care as well!

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

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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
