“Nikki was wonderful and my dog loved her. She was very flexible and accommodating when I needed her help the most. My dog and I look forward to having Nikki help us again in the future!”
“Olivia is a wonderful dog walker! She is attentive to details, always makes sure my dog has fresh water, give him treats, and takes great care of him. It’s clear how much she cares about the dogs she works with. Highly recommend!”
“I've had a run of poor health for the last year leaving ankles and feet painful. Maggie left with a very depressed dog and returned with a smiling happy bundle of energy. My little girl doesn't understand Maggie's name yet but hopefully, that will come. Rhea, who is a five year old Havanese poodle who doesn't understand why walks with myself are so short. Maggie at least got her to stretch her legs and run.”
“Katelynn is great with our pup! She is attentive, personable and knowledgeable. She is quick to respond to our requests/questions and a pleasure to work with! We highly recommend Katelynn and her services! Five stars!”
About: I am a physical therapist who has a passion for working with people, however, I interact with people quite often. SO, what I really enjoy is making the time to cuddle or walk with furry friends any chance I can get. As a former doctoral student, I have learned how to manage time well, organize and prioritize. I have over 8 years of experience dog sitting for family members and these dogs include small breeds (Coton de Tulear and Dachshund), medium breeds (Beagle/Australian Sheperd mix) and large breeds (Pitbull/Boxer mix, Boxer, and Lab/Pitbull mix). I have administered medication on a strict schedule, bathed, walked and snuggled with all of these pups, showing nothing but love and dedication. I take all safety precautions to ensure gates are closed when necessary, human food is placed far out of reach, and all doors are shut that lead to tempting, tasty objects such as shoes and remotes. My experience with a variety of breeds and sizes makes me stand out, as well as my ability to handle high energy dogs who may appear confrontational at first. If you choose me to watch your fur babies, there is no doubt that they will be in good hands with someone who is dedicated to ensuring they are comfortable, happy and well taken care off. I have a very flexible schedule, I am in between jobs at the moment, so as long as I have enough notice, I am willing to make anything work! At my house I have to flexibility to take the dogs out as needed, I have a dog currently who is friendly with others. In my clients’ homes, I respect the client’s instructions and can perform any task they need! I respect the home and privacy as I have also had Rover sitters in my home and would want someone trustworthy.
“Marc was excellent! He clearly loves dogs, He has a good understanding of them and we appreciated his excellent communication and feedback! Will use him again without hesitation!”
“Eliza has been walking my dog for over a year. She is punctual, great communicator, reliable and responsible. My dog absolutely adores her! He gets so excited when we tell her she’s walking him. She has also helped us when we needed dog services outside of our weekly walking schedule. I highly recommend Eliza for pet services.”

By staying at your place, I minimize your dog’s anxiety. I provide dedicated overnight care, plenty of playtime, and frequent updates so you feel connected.
“Excellent communication. Great photos. I had to be away in Colorado and it was so good to have the dogs walked while at a friends house. Cora is still potty training and I really needed the help. You can also tell Stephanie really loves dogs.”
About: I have been taking care of all different kinds of animals all my life. From dogs, cats, fish, hamster, etc.... I am now a military spouse following my husband around with our cat daughter. I do have a military id so don't worry if you live on a base I have access. I do stop by for a quick hello and check on your babies make sure they are good and don't need anything to staying and playing with them for at least 30 mins. or if you are just needing someone to get them out of the house for a little walk during the day. I currently do not have any children so any and all fur babies I will love like they are my own child. I am currently a stay-at-home wife, so I am generally available anytime during the weekday. So, I am going to use this in my free time to be able to get me out of the house for a little bit during the day. When I come to your house to check in on your baby/babies or even to take them for a walk as long as you tell me what they can and can't do for the most part (sitting on the furniture) or an idea of their schedule that will help me make them feel the less stressed out the best.

I am available to do visits and dog (or cat) sitting throughout the week, outside of my live classes that vary each semester. I will give your pet as much attention as possible. I will follow your instructions (e.g., only giving treats as directed, feeding at specified times, crating animals, keeping animals off furniture, etc.). If your yard is fenced in, I can take your dog outside to play or just sit, whatever your dog's preferences are.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and career. I currently manage a veterinary hospital and have experience working alongside both general practice and emergency veterinary teams. As a pet parent to a nervous, reactive dog, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, quiet companionship, or requires a little extra patience and understanding, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care tailored to them. Currently working Full time and looking to do this as a side job. I would prefer dogs that are close to me to ensure I can do as many walks as possible. Working in the Vet Med field has taught me how incredibly important safety is. I follow the owner’s instructions to the tee and will put the pets safety as a top priority on all our walks.
About: Hi, my name is Taylor. I’m a 23 year old nurse who works evenings at a rehab unit. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have a 6 month old very friendly, gentle and kind German Shepherd who I have trained on my own. Since I have most mornings off, I thought I could use my free time playing with other dogs, feeding, walking or as desired. Will runwith dogs if they enjoy jogging. Love grooming animals. Also if wanted more puppy/dog interactions, my Shepherd could go for walks as well or play in the yard for socialization or energy exertion. I am good with all dogs, all shapes and sizes and I’m strong for my size so bring on the big dogs who like to pull or jump. Excited to meet you and your furry friends!

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.
