“Emma did a wonderful job while we were away! She showed up on time, sent updates on our pups, and exactly what they did with pictures included. And the dogs seemed to love her too! This was our first time using Rover and Emma responded quickly and we were happy we picked her!”

About: When you trust your pet to a caregiver, experience matters. I offer a lifetime of dedication, counting 40 years of hands-on pet care and 5 years of dedicated professional caregiving. Throughout my life, I have opened my heart and home to all types of animals. This extensive timeline means I am deeply familiar with senior pet care, recognizing shifts in animal behavior, and providing a structured, secure environment. Why choose my services: * Expert Problem-Solver: I don't just watch pets; I understand them. I can manage complex diets, administer medications, and manage various behavioral triggers. * Peace of Mind: You get the reliability of a veteran professional who knows how to spot emergencies before they happen. * All Animals Welcome: I treat every dog, cat, bird, or small critter with the specialized respect they deserve. Pet care is my primary focus, not a side hobby. Because I am a dedicated pet caregiver, my schedule is highly flexible and built entirely around the security and routines of your animals.Drop-In Visits & Housesitting: Available morning, afternoon, evening, and overnights.Routine Consistency: I structure my routes so I can arrive at your home during your pet’s exact, preferred feeding or walking windows to keep their biological clocks perfectly on track.Last-Minute & Holidays: Because this is my full-time dedication, I offer excellent, reliable availability for holiday care, weekends, and short-notice bookings. Safety is integrated into everything I do. I understand that trust is earned, especially when you are welcoming someone into your home. Home & Yard Security Protocols: Every time I enter or leave, I execute a strict checklist: ensuring all doors are deadbolted, alarms are set, gates are latched, and windows are completely secured. Proactive Hazard Sweeps: I actively scan for hidden household dangers during my visits—checking for dropped human pills, toxic plants, unsecured trash, or toys that could become choking hazards. Visual Verification: I don't just tell you your pet is safe; I show you. You will receive real-time, high-quality photo updates showing fresh food, clean water bowls, and a happy pet.

We always enjoy welcoming new friends! While my entire family loves animals, I will be the caretaker of your pet and my extensive experience means they will be getting the very best care! We have also fostered several dogs, including moms and their puppies. We have a fully fenced in yard that’s perfect for safe playtime and potty breaks. Winnie is crate trained, dog and cat friendly, and very social with other pets. Our cat is calm and used to dogs and visitors. I think he might believe he is a dog, lol. Housebroken pets only, please. I’m happy to follow whatever routine your pet is most comfortable with whether that’s crate time, feeding, walks, or medication. Your pet will get plenty of attention, affection, and supervised play while staying with us. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind while making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and right at home. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, I kindly ask that visiting dogs be kid friendly and crate trained. Please no pickups or drop offs before 8:30AM. I am stay at home mother who will entirely devote my time to your best friend! Playtime, potty breaks, walks, and following your routine are of the utmost importance to me.

“I’m soo happy that I came across Cindy’s profile. Bane loves her to death already which is weird it takes time for him to warm up to people but not Cindy , she must be some sort of dog whisperer 😂 🐕 . Bane weighs 140lbs and I was at first worried because usually I let men walk him because of his size and power but Cindy had no issues whatsoever this lady knows what’s she’s doing . She is very knowledgeable too soo many things I learned about my own dog I’ve had for almost 6 years . I will most definitely be continuing services with Cindy ! She’s the one you want working your pup!”

About: I’ve taken care of almost any domesticated animal you can think of (from fish to horses). I currently only have two pets of my own, but I love all animals and treat them like royalty:) I’m currently on summer break from college, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I will need some notice before hand, but mostly every day of the week will work for me. I will care for your pet at your home so you feel comfortable and know that they are in safe hands. I have plenty of experience with house sitting, dog sitting, and dog walking.

About: My name is Jessica! I am an active girl who works from home. I love animals of all shapes and sizes along with being outdoors. I would consider myself a dog person and have had dogs all my life including personally raising a large dog from 5 weeks old and rescuing another large dog at 6 years old who I had to say goodbye to in 2024. I have an active but well trained 1 and a half year old coonhound named Beelte who loves other dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have experience in house training and tricks and am very patient with young dogs and puppies as well. I love all dogs but the large breads hold a special place in my heart. Pet care is all day, everyday for me having a young dog and working from home. We are always engaging and prioritizing outside activity, learning, and play time. When boarding dogs, I ensure that the dogs have safe places they can individually go if they need to as well as ensuring they both are having their daily needs met.

About: I have a lot of experience with taking care of all sorts of pets and look forward to making your pet feel right at home. I’ve been doing rover for 3 years now and had pets my whole life ranging from dogs/ cats to snakes etc. Pet care is a big part of my everyday routine! I’m currently doing pet sitting full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just keeping them company, I’m able to plan my day around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I live in a gated apartment community with plenty of places to walk and play, including a fenced-in dog park. I’m home a lot, so pets staying with me will get plenty of attention, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and of course lots of love! I’m also happy to stay at a client’s home if their pet is more comfortable in their own space. I’ll stick to their normal routine as much as possible and follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, or anything else they may need. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

About: Growing up I had a dog named Toby and Kallie the cat! We’d be responsible for taking Toby on walks, feeding him, administering medication, and of course showing both of them major love and affection. My work schedule is very flexible so I’m able to adjust according to your pup’s needs. I work from home on occasion and would be happy to have some canine company in the house. I live in a pondside home in a safe suburban neighborhood. It’s a wooded area with all kinds of critters, much to explore! I’ll set up a bed with blankets in the sunroom for my doggie guests :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,379 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West Forest. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 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 , 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.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Forest. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
