About: I’ve been the primary care taker for family dogs since the age of 7. I focus on proper nutrition and activity, supplemented by extraordinary love and affection for all animals; though dogs tend to get a little more :) Flexible work hours allow me to care for your dogs at odd hours of the day, and can often make special trips if need be. Set schedules are ideal, but flexible caring is not out of the question! I work from home during the weekends and would be able to provide care during those times as well. I have a rather large fenced in yard, with access to water and air conditioning (via doggy door). I have a roommate who is the proud owner of an English Creme Golden and is able to provide extra TLC should your dog need it! We have two dogs in the home, a lab mix and English Creme Golden, both are submissive and quiet, with a love for the outdoors and lots of naps.
“Sam responded to my last minute dog walk request when I discovered my usual walker was unavailable today. She was very quick to reply and easy to communicate with. She was on time for the walk and didn’t have any issues following instructions to enter my apt. Based on the pictures she took of my smiling dog, she seems to be great with animals. My dog got a full mile walk, water and treats. She even left me a sweet note. I will definitely trust Sam again with my dog. Thank you!”
About: I have experience taking care of all types of animals (dogs, cats, bunnies, etc.). I have medically complex cats myself, so I am comfortable giving medication or other medical treatments include IVs. I also have two dogs so I am comfortable with caring for multiple pets at a time. I know how important it is to have complete trust in the person watching your fur-babies. I’m here to build community! I start work mid morning so I am available for early morning starts. I can work my schedule to your time. I am local to downtown Greenville and happy to travel. I will follow instruction to a T so that you feel comfortable knowing your babies are in good hands. I am an extra-communicator and will happily send all of the pictures so you can get updates on how we are doing.
About: Since young, my family owned a plethora of different animals! Dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, etc. I love caring for all sorts of animals and show extreme precision in ensuring the best care! I am a full time Elementary Educator! I have the summer off, so totally open weekday availability. Flexible with weekend needs and will be able to work this into my schedule even when returning to school in August! I have a cat of my own that is great with other animals! I will do whatever requests are made for how you would like for me to care for your own animals in your home!
About: I’ve had a dog in our family most of my life and am the dog mom currently to a King Charles Cavalier which we raised from 8 weeks on. I love the love dogs give us and enjoy giving it back to them! I enjoy long walks on our local trail with our dog as well. I will send updates and pictures during your dogs time with me. My schedule is very flexible, changes each month and allows me to be home a lot. Your pet will not be left alone unless discussed ahead of time. My husband and myself both operate our Rover account and one of us will take great care of your pet. We live in an apartment complex with great walking areas, a fenced dog park, and steps away from the Swamp Rabbit Trail. Your dog will be loved and cared for in our place.
About: A trusted pet sitter by friends, family, and neighbors since the age of 15. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and personalities! My care taking prioritizes your fur baby’s needs whether that be feeding, bathing, walking, playing, training, giving medicine or just love and snuggles. I currently work a full time job in Greenville, with a flexible WFH schedule. My primary availability on weekdays is from 12-1pm and after 5pm to help watch, walk, and play with your pets while you're away or in the office! If you’re away on weekends, not a problem! I’d love to keep your fur babies happy and stimulated. I always make sure gates and doors are locked and secured before letting a dog outside or leaving your home. I will also always double check that your pets collar or harness is secured before going for walks. Cute pictures of your pet during our time together is always a must!
About: I love animals and would love the privilege of taking care of your baby while you’re away. I enjoy being outside and taking dogs for walks in my neighborhood or exploring new neighborhoods. Your baby will be taken good care of and given plenty of exercise and play time. It would be a pleasure to help you out by taking care of your precious baby while you have peace of mind he or she will be welcomed and loved, in my home or yours. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your baby and provide care, protection, and attention while in my care. Thank you, Cindy If I accept a boarding or sitting, I will be available for your baby the entire time. If a few hours are needed for me to run errands, I will make sure they are safe and secure during that time. I have a completely fenced in yard. I am always outside with your pup as well. I keep a close watch over your pets play activities and give constant attention.
About: I am a recent UTK animal science graduate. I worked at a dog boarding and day care facility for a summer in 2023. I have dog sat all throughout my high school years and some in college. I worked with horses in the summer of 2024. I love animals and want to pursue a career in animal health! I am very passionate about animals! I am a very flexible person. I recently graduated from The University of Tennessee and am in the process of looking for jobs. Most of my days are pretty open. I am a very trustworthy and reliable person who will always have the animals best interest at heart! I love working with animals and I can’t wait to meet them! I have dog sat many times and am very good with watching over them.
About: I have had dogs my whole life- they are my family. My love for animals led me on the path towards veterinary. Now I am attending Tri-County technical college to transfer to Clemson for veterinary. Life is beautiful💕 I currently have college classes every weekday, however my available days are Sunday, Monday, Friday, and Saturday. Monday and Fridays I am free after 2PM. However my animals at home receive lots of attention when I get home from school everyday and love to play outside. Following your instructions and having both you AND your dog feeling safe and secure in the care I provide is very important to me. If possible I’d love to have close communication with the pet parent to prevent any mistakes.
About: I have had pets in my home since I was a child. I had a senior dog I took care of for six years. I am very comfortable with dogs at all stages or any handicaps. I am home throughout the day and all evening with a flexible schedule. My home is relaxing with plenty of space. The fenced in yard is big and a pile of perfect sticks are waiting to be played with. The neighborhood is away from main roads and safe. I do have cameras in the home to keep an eye on things if I run errands. I have a fenced in large yard for safety if your furry friend stays here. I also have a private inside area if they need some downtime. I only have a couple steps into the home. If I visit them then all rules are strictly adhered too. I provide a lot of love and care, making sure they are calm, happy and safe. I tend to care for 4-6 dogs at a time. Many are high energy so your dog should be comfy with that environment. Lazy, sleepy dogs do well with it. I love to have Meet&Greets. I want you to feel comfortable with my space. If it turns out you are not on board 100%, I understand and have no hard feelings. The safety and happiness of your pet is everyone’s focus. Taking care of pets is my full time job so I am home based. I have a couple day care dogs during the work week and spend most of my day with them. I will follow through with your training and rules. Pets are spoiled with attention. I have a box of toys and treats for them. I will provide photos and videos plus regular updates.
About: I have been a multidog household for the last 20 years, typically 3 dogs at a time. I have had puppies to seniors in our care and am able to manage multiple needs in the same house. I am currently not working as my family and I settle into South Carolina so my schedule is more than flexible to meet your needs. I am happy to come to your house to play, feed, walk and interact with your pet. I thoroughly enjoy telling them all about my day and love when they "talk" back!
About: Pets have always been a huge part of my life. My very first dog was a WL GSD, and I’ve had a special place in my heart for animals ever since! Now I have a little zoo of my own with two dogs and three cats (and a foster dog)! My Collie and I train and compete in dog sports, and we’re currently working toward multiple titles. I’m also heavily involved with a couple of local shelters and rescues and regularly foster high-energy working breeds—right now, I have a Dutchie foster! Between my own pets, fostering, training, dog sports, and volunteering, animals are a huge part of my everyday life. At this point, caring for them is basically my full-time job outside of my actual full-time job! I do work a FT job outside of Rover. However, I can do morning and evening visits during the week, plus sometimes a quick lunchtime drop-in while I’m on break for work. Weekends are wide open for longer visits or walks. I always care for pets the way I do my own. The more details you can give me about their routines and care, the better. I’m not afraid of a long lengthy list to follow— I actually prefer them! In your home, I make sure to follow your routine as closely as possible so your pets feel secure and comfortable.
About: I’ve owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life, from dogs and cats to smaller pets. I’m currently in school to become a vet tech and hope to go even further one day, so taking care of animals is something I genuinely care about and take seriously. I’m comfortable with everything from basic care to more involved needs like giving medications or even injections. I’ve helped take care of pets that needed daily shots and extra attention, so I know how important it is to be patient and attentive. I’m married and have a steady schedule, so I’m reliable and able to stick to routines. I also love being outside, so walks and playtime are something I enjoy just as much as your pet will. I treat every animal like it’s my own and want you to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in my care. I currently work part time and go to school twice a week, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Most of my weekdays are open, along with a lot of weekends, which makes it easy for me to plan around your pet’s routine. Pet care fits really naturally into my life since I already spend a lot of time taking care of my own animals. I enjoy being active and outside, so things like walks, playtime, and check-ins don’t feel like a chore to me. Because of my schedule, I’m able to be consistent and reliable, whether that’s stopping by for visits, sticking to feeding times, or giving medications if needed. I have a large fenced-in backyard in a very quiet neighborhood, which gives pets plenty of space to safely run around and play. It’s a calm environment with minimal noise, so it’s great for animals that might get anxious or overwhelmed easily. I make sure pets always have a safe, clean, and comfortable space while they’re with me, and I keep a close eye on them anytime they’re outside.
About: I've been loving and taking care of dogs and cats since I was 8, when my family got our first dog Lucky. Since growing up I've helped take care of pets for many of my friends and family when they were out of town. I've also worked with pets professionally as an Experience Lead at PetSmart, where I managed the grooming salon. I'm very passionate about all animals and pets are a hugely important part of my life. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! My schedule is flexible, so I can be available almost any day, week or weekend. I've cared for pets with a wide-ranging scope of needs, so I'm very experienced in paying attention to detail and customizing my care based on what your pet may need. I'm very careful and thorough, and highly value the importance of proper care when working in your home. My goal is always making the pet feel safe and content while their pet parents are away.
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life and I absolutely love all animals. I live near a beautiful park where I could take the dog or dogs to play! I also have a nice backyard! I currently work from home so my availability is open! I am fully devoted to your dogs care and you can expect nothing but the best! I have a backyard where the dogs could play and I also live by a very nice park. Inside my home we will snuggle and play all day!

You could not do any better than Jackson. He did such a great job with my dog, who is a giant breed and still young and energetic which is a recipe for tough walks at times. Jackson handled him like a pro and was so detail oriented and thorough. Highly recommend!!
My regular pet sitter was out for several weeks, and I needed to find a temporary sitter— Chaniel was awesome! My black lab (older a quite stubborn!) did great on daily walks with Chaniel. She is great at communication and always kept me updated with pictures. Will definitely ask her to care for Charlie next time the need arises!
Alyssa was a wonderful Dog Walker for our very active dog, Ginger. She was attentive to details and was great with knowing what to do after asking a few questions. She took the time to warm up to her and a great job with taking pictures and letting us know how the walk went. We’ll definitely be using Alyssa again!
Athena took wonderful care of our young dog Lelo. She was incredibly kind and attentive, taking her on lovely walks to the park and making sure she felt comfortable and happy the entire time. We truly appreciate her care and dedication and are very grateful for the great experience. We can highly recommend Athena and would trust her again anytime!
Ana came to visit the day before to meet and took the time to understand what was needed to walk Max & Mazy. She took extra time to chat and we could tell she obviously loves animals and is trustworthy. Mazy is a new member of the family and was just adopted, so full of energy. She gave feedback on a couple of small issues as Mazy managed to escape her kennel after we left and had caused a little havoc. All went as smooth as possible, given a little craziness.

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 Welcome. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
