About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am also comfortable caring for cats. I’ve provided pet care for neighbors and have experience managing different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary hospital and a zoo, where I learned safe handling, how to recognize signs of stress or illness, and how to maintain proper care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, and I’m especially comfortable with active dogs as well as providing gentle care for younger or more sensitive pets. I am also quite the green-thumb if you need your plants watered!🌸🪴🌼🌱🌻 My schedule is very open and flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate pet care throughout the day and week. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, and I can adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, including walks, feeding times, and check-ins. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in my client’s home. I am very attentive and detail-oriented, and I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and supervise pets closely during play. I pay close attention to behavior and can recognize signs of stress or illness. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep routines consistent to help pets feel comfortable and safe.
“Alexandra is the best! We have a high energy, rule breaking, leash pulling Australian Shepherd. Alexandra is patient with him and sends plenty of pics and details. Highly recommend”
“Craig is the best walker we could have found- prompt, reliable and a nice guy. Rover is very good and sends all related info all the time. Higgins Stands at the door waiting for his special walk!!”
“So happy we found Erica to help out twice a week taking our energetic dog for a midday walk! She’s responsive on the app, clearly loves dogs, is respectful of our home, and always leaves a picture and update after the walk. We’ve settled into a nice routine and it gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work knowing Erica will be stopping in.”
“Julia helped us out at very short notice and took our two dogs out for a walk whilst we were away for the day. She followed our instructions and we found them happy and safe upon our return”
“Julia was an amazing help with two last minute walks I needed. She is kind, friendly, flexible and truly was an amazing help with my dog Phoenix. I would recommend her again and again, and hopefully will use her again soon. Thank you Julia!”
“Bona was wonderful and helped us in a pinch. She was great on the walk and very communicative. She was able to manage Elmer, a very high energy trash eating dog. Very greatful and highly recommend!”
About: I've always had a dog in my life. Since a child we always had a family dog and always have loved them. I now have the best cat ever. For many years I've watched friends pets (and new furry friends made on rover). It's always fun getting to play with them, take them out for long walks, and loving them as if they were my own. Due to my full time job, I'm mostly available Friday and weekends. I know that your pet and I will have a great time together if we get the chance! Thanks! I only work four days a week so I have plenty availability. Whether it’s just a quick day trip or a long weekend getaway I can be available for your pet I always take care of a pet as if it were my own. Some animals have special needs so I always make sure I follow their directions.
About: Hello! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to play and spend time with all my pup friends. Also, my wife is a stay-at home mom which means your pup(s) will have 24/7 companionship. Throughout the years I have been fortunate to have met great pet parents who have now become regular clients. I understand how difficult it is to find reliable and trustworthy pet care and I am happy to help out! Currently, I am boarding small & medium size dogs up (to 35 lbs) and will accept more than one dog, (up to 3), if they are from the same family. Your pet will be treated like family and will have access to a very large, fenced in backyard, so your dog(s) will never feel confined and will have plenty of room to exercise, play & explore or simply chill under a tree. Also, the entire property has surveillance cameras, so everyone is well protected. I have three super friendly small/medium size dogs that have been very well socialized and are always SO happy to welcome a new play pal! A 'meet & greet' will ensure we are a good fit:) Photos and or videos will be provided to you every day. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Looking forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Thanks, Mike I work from home and have schedule flexibility to attend to your pet(s) every need. Also my wife is a stay at home mom, this means companionship 24/7 I am available on weekdays and weekends. Please reach out for specific requests. At home, my pets receive excellent care. Just like with my own pets, I will provide expert, attentive pet care to yours. Pictures and videos will be provided every day to ensure owner's piece of mind. Additionally, the entire property is video monitored, providing an additional layer of safety.
“Kaitlin really came through for me not only this week — where she walked my dog 3x a day— but even more recently for a midday walk at the last minute. For my planned week away, my flight home was canceled and I needed her to walk the dog at night, although we hadn’t planned for that. It felt really good knowing that my dog was in good hands and that he would be able to get some exercise and relieve himself when I couldn’t be there. He gets super excited about his walks and tends to pull a lot in the beginning, until he calms down, and she was able to handle him. He also takes medicine regularly so she was really good with giving it to him in alternative ways. It’s a blessing to be able to leave your pet in the care of someone when they can’t be with you. You need to have confidence in and be comfortable with that person and Kaitlin made me feel both of those things. She is now my go-to dog walker.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wayne
We had a great experience with our dog walker, Morgan. She was consistently on time, which we really appreciated, and always communicated clearly and promptly, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind. Most importantly, Morgan took excellent care of our dog and treated them with genuine attention and kindness. She truly went above and beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care.
Ashley walks our puppy a few times a week and is consistent, reliable and communicative. We welcomed a rescue puppy into our home unexpectedly and were fortunate Ashley was able to help us right away. On a personal level, Ashley is a sweet and caring person and gained our immediate trust.
I never had the opportunity to meet Allison because she doesn't do first time meetings with the dog or owner, but the person who was staying at our house said she was lovely, and our dog seemed happy. She sent notes and pictures, which was nice. I only wish I had been able to meet her.

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 Wayne. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Wayne.

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 Wayne. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
