“Steph was wonderful! Punctual, communicative, so sweet, and handled my rambunctious siberian husky perfectly! She was very responsive, despite us requesting her services at the last minute, and was nothing but gracious to us through the week of walking our dog during the heat dome! I would recommend her to anyone, and will 10000% be using her again! Thanks, Steph!!”
“Emily was SUPER patient with us and was amazing with our pups! Our pups aren’t the easiest to walk but she was super kind and accommodating. Can’t wait to use her again!”
“Sarahi was incredible with my dog Eisley. My dog was immediately comfortable with her and was excited for walk time everyday. Would absolutely book her again and the only reason she is not helping any longer is because I am moving.”
“Daniel was fantastic with Jack! He was always on time and super reliable during the two weeks I was away. With Glenn working 6/10 shifts, Dan’s daily walks gave Jack a much-needed break and helped us out a lot. We’re really grateful for the care and consistency— we’ll definitely be using him again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats for most of my life! Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to take care of their cats (feeding, changing litter, enrichment, etc.). I also have two cats of my own and have administered medication orally, topically, and via food. I am very flexible with scheduling. I am willing to work on scheduling conflicts if they arise. Feel free to message me about setting a schedule! When entering, I make sure that the cats are not in the doorway. I also make sure to wash all bowls before feeding and refilling water. For litter changing, I use gloves and ensure that the litter box and surrounding area is clean afterwards. I also respect every cat’s boundaries! I adapt easily to different personalities :)
“We had a wonderful meet-and-greet and neighborhood walk today, and this walker is absolutely lovely! They naturally they handled commands with my high energy pup. If you need someone who is both highly capable and genuinely caring to look after your pup, I cannot recommend them enough!”
“Extremely great experience. Our dog is always excited and happy when Siria arrives for a walk. Very professional at all times and takes care our dog extremely well! Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve have two years of professional experience with providing care for dogs and cats, though I have lots of experience with taking care of animals, since I have a senior dog and a two year old cat! Ihave done over 300 services as a pet caregiver on another app, I can provide a link to my profile! I’m currently have a lot of free time but I am attending college a GMU only doing online classes this semester so my schedule is very flexible! I also usually always bring my sister with me on any service I do and she always helps out. I also want to let pet parents know that if your pet(s), specifically larger dogs, are overly reactive that I can not provide services for you because of the safety of myself and the dog, please just be honest about how your dog(s) responds to caregivers, I always try my best to provide 110% effort in all my services and I can’t do when I don’t know what can tigger your pet, I had a bad experience during a sitting and pet parent told me there dog was very well-behaved and then when sitting the dog kept grabbing my leg, (was around the same height as me when he stood up) and would not let go and didn’t listening to any commands the pet parent said he listened to and kept biting through my clothes and my hands. It was a very scary experience because I was told something else but one bad experience doesn’t compare to all the good dogs I have walked! I have walked large dogs and I have never had any issues with them and are usually always the sweetest pups to walk and are very gentle on their leashes, and are always excited to go on walks by jumping on me (which I never mind) or licking! I live in a dog friendly neighborhood and live near a walking trail. I have a family dog and cat who are both friendly to all animals. They are both low maintenance and always enjoy meeting new animals, they have been around birds and guinea pigs as well! I do prefer sitting in the pet parent’s home just mainly because the pets are most comfortable at their home and I don’t do overnight stays just because I also have animals that need my attention. I love when pet parents provide detail instructions about their expectations and daily tasks of their pets!

About: I have been pet sitting on and off since I was 12. I love animals of all kinds and my husband is a veterinarian, so I get to hear about animals on a daily basis and I want to put some of that knowledge to use. I currently work full-time remotely, so I am free all during the day to walk dogs or to house/dog sit, as long as there is WiFi, I can work anywhere! I am happy to dog walk or dog/house sit! Whatever is most convenient for you, I am willing to make it work! Once I get to know your pet, I know we’ll be best friends!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Gate
Angelly was amazing! I needed a dog walker at the last minute and booked her the day before, and she was available without any issues. She arrived five minutes early, was professional and thoughtful, and even asked where I preferred she dispose of the poop bags. She took my dog on a full 30-minute walk and kept me updated with several photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. The entire experience was smooth from start to finish, and she was such a pleasure to work with. I would absolutely book Angelly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, punctual, and caring dog walker!
We had a wonderful meet-and-greet and neighborhood walk today, and this walker is absolutely lovely! They naturally they handled commands with my high energy pup. If you need someone who is both highly capable and genuinely caring to look after your pup, I cannot recommend them enough!
She was so kind and such a joy to meet! We feel really good about trusting her with our dog and home! Right away she connected with our doberman and you can tell she has a lot of knowledge and experience! We are looking forward to working with her for walks and out of town stays!
This was our second booking with Kasey. She was easy to work with and great with our 3 dogs. She was quick to recognize their preferences and skilled at meeting individual needs. Our dogs clearly enjoyed their time with her and they napped/slept well after her visits.
This was my first time having Hayleigh walk my dog, and it was a great experience. My dog liked her right away, which is always a good sign. She was kind, responsive, and very responsible. I’m really glad I found her and will definitely use her again when I’m traveling for work. Thanks, Hayleigh ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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 Gate. 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.

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.
