About: I have had pets all of my life, and I have helped take care of them from puppies to seniors. I have applied that knowledge into my professional work as well. I can feed and bathe pets, walk, and administer pills. I have previously worked with dogs, cats, birds, and bunnies. I am also close to several animal shelters and help socialize, walk, help with adoptions, and foster when needed. I am currently working as a contract worker, so I have free time and flexibility to take care of your fur babies! I take care of my own personal kitty cat, but other than that I am completely free to take care of your fur kids. When caring for animals at a client's home, I make sure to find out any and all safety features or precautions needed for their pets. I try to make sure the pets stay on their schedule, including any routines they may have such as walking a certain path, going out a specific door, etc.

About: Hi, my name is Ashley, and I am a middle school educator. Outside of teaching and working with students, I have a huge love for dogs. I have three family dogs, two girls and one boy, and I truly enjoy each of their unique personalities. Funny enough, my boy dog’s birthday is the day before mine, so I always joke that we have the same personality! I have always been the type of person who instantly notices dogs wherever I go. Whether I’m walking around town or traveling on vacation, I’m usually the one saying, “Oh my gosh, look at that dog! I want to go pet them!” I even find myself feeling emotional when I see stray dogs because I wish every dog had a loving home. Animals bring so much joy, and being around dogs has always been something that makes me genuinely happy.

Once the school year begins, my availability will mainly be during evenings throughout the week and on weekends. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I do my best to follow the care instructions provided by their owner. Pet care for me includes making sure they receive their meals on time, have fresh water, go on their daily walks or potty breaks, and get plenty of attention. I also love spending time playing, cuddling, and giving them affection so they feel cared for while their family is away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Forest
Morgan is by far the best dog walker I have gotten on this app. She is very good with my boys. She met with me beforehand to see if she was compatible with the dogs. Before she left, she handed me a sock so that the dogs can get familiar with her scent. I thought that was so thoughtful. She is very gentle with them and she can follow the directions needed to keep the dog safe. She even bring in Amazon packages if she sees them on the porch. I asked her if she would be flexible to picking up more days just in case I have to work late, and she was all for it. Overall, she’s just a thoughtful kind and caring person and I’m glad I chose her to walk my dogs.

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 West Forest. 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 a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in West Forest after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

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 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.
