“Laurel took great care of our senior yorkie. He can't see or hear so great any longer and just wants to sleep all day. She was very patient and able to get him to take walks with her. She kept us updated through pictures and texts which helped us enjoy our day away more. Bentley slept so much better after spending time with Laurel. We will definitely use her services any time we need to leave Bentley home in the future.”
About: I have experience with senior pets all the way to new born babies! Additionally, I have experience with other animals such as amphibians, farm pets, to fish! I am CPR certified and capable of administering antibiotics. I've taken care of my pets ever since I was a kid (I'm 20 now)! I am very ambitious about animals and showing the love and care they need. I have 4 fur babies that are wonderfully taken care of! I have 3 Dachshund mixes, and a German Shepherd mixed with a Great Pyrenees! My schedule is always open! And if not, I have no problem with setting that line of communication with my clients to be able to meet their needs and their pets needs! I have a retractable leash for the smaller dogs and a regular leash for the bigger dogs! Additionally a portable water bottle for hot walks! If no walks are needed? I have no problem spending time with either dogs or cats in the safety of their home environment!
About: I have positive reinforcement training experience with dogs. I am familiar with all sizes of dogs and tools used to safely walk them. As an alumni of the Animal Behaviour College I will strive to uphold all that theu taught me. I currently have 2 dogs and cats of my own and understand the challenges of getting pets enough exercise. Prior to moving I had regular pet sitting clients that had dogs, cats and exotics. If a simple walk won't cut it for your dog there is the cycle leash option that I have for a bicycle. If you dogs prefers to do long sniffing sessions there is the 20 foot leash option. I also understand that some dogs are reactive to other dogs or pets; with this in mind I will keep a safe, below threshold distance for your pet.
About: I am an avid animal lover with experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, lizards, and more. I have expirience pet sitting and dog walking as well as dog obedience and agility training with 4-H. I have worked with rescue animals, animals with special needs, and elderly animals. For dog walking your should dog does not need to be perfectly trained as I am willing to work with them. I am happy to work with shy and timid animals as well as friendly and exited ones. If you would like a reference I can provide one. I have a very flexible schedule with alot of availability. I look foward to meeting you and your pets. I will shower your pets with love and make sure they receive only the best care.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. After working in the fast-paced culinary world, I shifted gears in 2007 to run a full-scale pet care facility near Mt. Rainier. Later, I explored the insurance industry—but my heart never left the pack. Now, I’m back doing what I love most: caring for pets with experience, dedication, and a whole lot of tail wags. I work in town with a flexible schedule, so I can swing by during breaks to give your pet some love, care, and attention too. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, with a couple of visits each day. It’s a calmer, less stressful experience for your furry friend. I’m happy to stop by while you’re home at first, so your pet can see I’m a welcome guest. After a friendly introduction, I’ll carry out future visits just as smoothly—even if you’re away. For safety and peace of mind, I recommend crating your pet during my visits to avoid any unexpected issues with entry or territorial behavior.
About: I have taken care of dogs and fish since I was 8. I have taken care of cats for 26 years. I have also had experience with reptiles and birds. I work for a nonprofit Spay and Neuter clinic. We help animals on a daily basis. I have rescued feral cats and I am working on having my own sanctuary. I am an independent contractor and I make my own hours so I can maneuver around any schedule on any day. I am my own Boss with an open schedule. I will follow your directions of care and give them extra love and attention because they will be missing you. I love taking pups for walks when the weather permits.
About: Combining my upbringing on a farm with my past work at a doggy daycare and boarding center, I provide comprehensive pet care. I’ve had experience with high-energy breeds like Huskies and German Shepherds, as well as large dogs such as English Mastiffs, St. Bernards, and Bernese Mountain Dogs. Your furry friends will enjoy a nurturing environment filled with love, companionship, and plenty of tail-wagging adventures. Leave them in capable hands for a worry-free experience! I have plenty of time during the week and weekend evenings to spend with your pets! I’m currently working part time mornings Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. To ensure your pets receive exceptional care I'll provide: Customized Care: Tailoring my approach to each pet's unique needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. Regular Exercise: Engaging them in stimulating activities and regular exercise routines to keep them happy and healthy. Feeding and Hygiene: Following specific feeding schedules and maintaining proper hygiene practices to keep them clean and comfortable. Medication Administration: If needed, administering any medications according to the provided instructions. Companionship: Offering plenty of companionship and affection to alleviate any stress or anxiety they may feel while their owners are away. With a deep understanding of animal behavior and a genuine love for pets, I'll provide attentive and reliable care, giving peace of mind knowing your furry companions are in good hands.
About: I enjoy caring for and being present with dogs. I am empathetic and always in tune with what others are feeling and need. I would love to hang out with your dogs! I have been around animals my entire life and find myself growing more drawn to caring for them every day. Currently, I do not have a dog of my own so I feel that taking care of your dogs would bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life. I enjoy all types of dogs and personalities and would enjoy getting to know your dogs! I feel others would describe me as patient, balanced, and responsible. Whether I'm just watching your dogs for the day or for an extended period of time you will be able to rest easily because they will be in warm, loving 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 West Plains. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in West Plains.

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 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
