Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Slope
Ngan was absolutely amazing with our 3 boys! ❤️ She walked them for three consecutive days and gave each of them such wonderful care, attention, and love. Each of our dogs has their own unique personality, and sometimes managing all three can be a little tricky, but Ngan handled everything so beautifully and patiently. She truly took her time with each of them, made sure they felt cared for, and went above and beyond to spend quality time with them and give them so much love. The sweetest touch was that she even made each of our boys their own little certificate at the end! 🥹 We are so grateful we found her, and it’s clear that our boys absolutely love her. We would recommend Ngan a thousand times over to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets with genuine care and affection. She is truly wonderful!
Alison and Tom are the best!! I cannot stress enough how wonderful it is to have them to take care of our boys when we’re gone. They are receptive to their needs and treat them like family. I always feel relieved that Gatsby and Nigel are in good hands. Thanks so much y’all!
I couldn't possibly write a review good enough to express my appreciation and high praise for Danielle! So I'll just say, look no further. Danielle is an incredibly kind, punctual, communicative, and thoughtful person. She was always on time, quick to respond, and when the ground was damp, she even brought her own towel to wipe down my dog after their walk! She also leaves the best report cards. I hope she publishes a book of short stories about her dog walks; I would purchase it in a heartbeat >_< Repeat customer for life!
Erica is so amazing! Our little puppy was nervous the first few days, and Erica just sat and played with her until she was ready to go for a walk. I am continually impressed by Erica's intuition and how she goes above and beyond for our dog. You can really tell she cares!

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 Slope. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
