“If you’re looking for a compassionate, experienced, and reliable dog sitter, Tanya is the one to call! We have four energetic dogs ranging from 100 pounds to just 25 pounds, and she handles them all with ease. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or keeping them on their best behavior, Tanya goes above and beyond. Having her care for our pups gives us true peace of mind when we travel, knowing they’re in the best hands. We can’t recommend her enough!”

“I’ve requested Ariel multiple times to take care of my Finnegan, and every single time she does a fantastic job! She’s super flexible, easy to work with, and communicates well! I look forward to booking Ariel in the future!”

About: I have 30+ years of pet care experience not only with my own pets, but also friends & family that I have taken care of. I am very friendly to all animals and know how to interact with the most timid or aggressive dogs. When I meet a new animal, owners tell me that I must have a sixth sense because the animals never react so well to anyone. I tell the owners that they must know I am a dog lover and enjoy being with animals more than I do people. I work from home so will be with your furry child all day. I have two Black Labs of my own that love everyone! References available upon request.
About: I love dogs and cats of all kinds and I can promise you, your pet will love me just as much! I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends, I will be able to walk your dogs regularly or house sit over the night to keep them company! I am a very energized person and would love to spend time with your furry friend! Need a weekend getaway!? No worries I got you covered! Available weekends to hang out with your furry friends. Weekdays can be arranged as well! I will make sure your fur baby has food, water & gets plenty of exercise! I love to go on walks so you can definitely expect that. Owner’s being away can give your dog anxiety but I do my best to make them as comfortable as possible!
“I have Ella booked for repeat walking. My lab is young and very active, and Ella will put in the work to tire him out. Moose loves her and we feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. She provides feedback and is communicative. Always on time too. Highly recommend her!”

About: My name is Raven, and I am an energetic and passionate lover of animals of all kinds. I grew up in a household wherein my mom saved any animal she could get her hands on, therefore I learned how to care for cats, dogs & even snakes very early in life. Ive worked for shelters since I was a pre-teen, both in volunteer and employment capacity, as well as being on Rover for over 6 years now, and have fallen in love with every pet i've been able to care for. I'm respectful of your home, time and routine. I'm able to meld to any feeding, walking, cuddling time your animal is used to, as to not change their routine while you're away. I hope to meet you and your furry friend! I am a full time student, with a lot of my classes being online, therefore my schedule is very flexible, and I prioritize your pets before anything else. Rover is something i've cherished for many years, allowing me an opportunity to connect with families who need help, and spend therapeutic time with the animals who make them whole! I can give myself an immense amount of credit for being a very trustworthy person. I was taught by my father to leave things better than I found them, and enjoy cleaning and maintaining my own environment as well as yours. I've never had a complaint about my respect for my clients space. You may occasionally check your home cameras and find me having a conversation with your pets, but other than that, I am fully sane! As for boarding in my home, I am unable to care for dogs in my home as I have 2 cats without experience with dogs, and the number one priority in my care is safety. However, I can board cats as my cats are very comfortable and used to living in a multi-cat home.
About: I’m a devoted dog owner to two pups and although I am new to Rover I do have experience with dog sitting/ walking for pets outside of my own home! I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I always take the time to give them attention, patience, and care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and aim to create a happy, stress-free experience for both pets and owners. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets throughout the week. I’m happy to provide walks, check-ins, and in-home sitting whenever your pet needs attention and companionship. I care for pets in their own homes so they feel safe and comfortable. I always follow all schedules and instructions closely, give lots of attention, and treat both pets and homes with respect.

About: From horses to hamsters, I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals throughout my lifetime. Animals have been an incredibly important part of my life, and I wouldn’t be the person I am today without my pets! Growing up, I’ve always had (at least 1), bully breed dog in the home, as well as a handful of foster puppies sprinkled in. I have owned horses for a decade, and currently have two spoiled cats and frequent foster kittens. I relocated to San Antonio for grad school, leaving behind my bigger animals with my family. I miss them tremendously, and would love to love on your animal as much as I can! I have a busy schedule, but can often fit in an hour walk here and there! I am able and willing to accommodate schedules as much as possible! Your home, your rules! Pets are the furry family members, and I know how important safety and piece of mind is. I want to ensure I am providing quality care in a way that leaves you (and your pet!) worry free and comfortable!
About: Raised my own dog from the age of 5 till I left home after high school and I have 2 cats currently. I might like walks more then your pet so the more the merrier! I'm available days and nights every day of the week. I can make work whatever your schedule needs whether its house sitting drop in's or walks. An animal is your family just as much as your kids. Food, walks, toys, whatever your dog needs I'm it's butler every time I'm there.

“Isaac did a wonderful job walking my dogs, Anakin and Padme! He was very accommodating and made scheduling so easy. I appreciated how attentive and caring he was with both of them, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Isaac, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“Ashely immediately established a positive rapport with our possibly difficult dog and continued building that relationship throughout her contract. Both our dog and cat were well and fine upon our arrival home. Ashley's communication was thorough and consistent. Doppler got walked at least once each day weather permitting. Both dog and cat received good interaction and playtime each day. We recommend Ashely to anyone for either dog or cat care.”

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 Welfare. 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.
