About: With over 20 years of experience handling cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes, I can promise that any pet under my care will receive all the care and attention they need. As I stated, I am very comfortable with both cats and dogs of any breed and any disposition. I am especially experienced handling large dog breeds. I also have experience training dogs and handling older animals. I am also able to administer medication As a teacher, my summers are wide open. I am also available during the school year, with most of my availability being in the late afternoon and evening While in your home, I will maintain a safe and loving environment for your animal. The same care is provided for your pet if it is boarded with me. Boarding amenities include a fenced-in backyard, friendly roommates, and all the cuddles they could want
“Elizabeth took great care of our 10 month old high energy pup Willow while we were in town ! She took her on a few walks and fed her despite a lot of chaos, we would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone.”
“Kristin was great. I needed someone to walk my dog a few times on a sunday evening. She was able to meet me and Oakley before, and check out my apartment so there were no issue the day of. She provided pictures and updates, along with beginning and ending walk times. It helped keep me at ease, and I highly recommend her!”
“Jamie is the BEST! We have a super nervous, occasionally reactive dog, and within two thirty minute walks, she’s my dog’s new best friend. She’s great at recognizing body language of dogs, and is always sure to take pictures of my baby on walks and send them over. She also checked to see what tricks Goose knew, and refreshes them with him on every walk. We’re so glad to have her as part of his weekly routine :)”
“Nicole is amazing. From the very start she was reliable with messages and prompt in showing up to my home. My dog Toto just adored her. He willingly left for his walk, tail wagging, on each occasion. I would highly recommend Nicole for animal care. She is a gem!!”
“Carly was absolutely fantastic! She was perfectly on time, brought a wonderful, positive energy, and came prepared with treats. My pup was clearly happy and excited to walk with her, and I felt instantly comfortable and confident in her care. I'll definitely be booking her again very soon!”
About: I live in Strathmore and work downtown. My absolute favorite things in life are my sons (who are amazing human beings!) and animals. Now that my sons are independent and out of the house, I enjoy being around and caring for animals. I have experience with all kinds of animals (e.g., dogs, cats, tarantulas, snakes, insects, and more). And I have had and loved dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from mini dachshunds with serious Napoleon complexes to larger-than-life Rottweilers and Great Danes. If you need a trustworthy, reliable, and affordable caregiver, feel free to reach out. :) Rate adjustments available based on financial need. 😊 I am flexible on evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to work around your needs and priorities. I work weekdays in downtown Syracuse. Near-by drop-ins are an option when needed. Completed first aid (for dogs and cats) courses because health and safety are always super important. I have a fenced-in yard and live next to Woodland Reservoir, a terrific place to walk! ✨
“Alyssa was so great with my little one. She kept me updated throughout the week, was very responsive and took care of him when he did not feel well. She even got him a toy for his birthday. I would highly recommend her!”
About: Hi, I'm Brooke! I’m 19 years old and have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, I was never without a pet, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. My first cat, Hunter Patches, was a huge part of my life before he passed last year. Since then, I’ve welcomed two new cats, Loki and Marie, into my family. I also have a 10 year old rescue dog named Gunner and recently rescued a bearded dragon named Dino. I’m comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles, and I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check on, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have a flexible routine and enjoy spending time feeding, playing with, walking, and giving attention to pets throughout the week. I will care for your pets like they’re my own by keeping them fed, comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their routines closely, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel calm and cared for in their home environment.
About: Growing up my family owned a dog as well as a cat, and I helped tend to the care of both animals in the home. I believe that having this responsibility engraved in me from a young age has helped shape me to be a solid pet care taker now. I was able to experience first hand the changes in a pets life as they age, both behaviorally and physically. I also have taken care of friends and family’s pets in their homes while they are away, most owning multiple types of pets from dogs, cats, and even bearded dragons. I currently work a full-time job at a bakery. My shifts/days off would be: Tuesday-Friday 4am-2pm Saturday-Sunday open availability For any overnight sitting needs, I will probably do best with an owner looking for a weekend sitter as my 10hr shifts can be a long time away from the home. On the other hand, for any drop in visits or walks I am free after I get out of work at 2pm to assist in any late afternoon care! As well as my open availability on the weekends I can not unfortunately offer to care for pets in my own home, as it is unfenced and has a cat residing that does best as a single pet. This is something I can recognize, so it is best that I come to the clients home. A pet communicates with people in so many ways, and the best way to create a safe environment for both you and the pet is to understand those behaviors. I have a good understanding of reading an animal and when boundaries are being set, whether they are done with play time and need space, or need some extra attention. Any pet care details left by the owner, I follow very closely to give the pet the closest experience they can get to a typical day in the home with the owner.
About: I have extensive experience with animals. I grew up with a dog in the home who I helped train and care for my entire life. Once I was a teenager, I pet sat for several neighbors and friends on a recurring basis as I was able to build meaningful relationships with their pets. I also volunteered at an animal shelter in college where I helped feed and bathe the animals. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages (young ones who need extra support and older ones who might need medicines or extra guidance). Ultimately, I LOVE all animals and have always had a natural ease with them - so would love to help you take care of any or all of your pets :) I currently work an 8am-4:30pm in person job in the downtown Syracuse area. Therefore, including my commute (dependent on where you live) I am out of the house for about 9 hours on week days. I totally understand if this doesn’t work for your pets! On weekends I can be very flexible to your pets’ schedule. I cannot offer boarding in my own home because my apartment is not pet friendly. When I house sit I am very respectful and clean of the space and I enjoy being able to stick to the typical routine of the pet as much as possible.
About: I’m an animal lover! I have 3 fur babies of my own, a malamute and pomskys! I would love to help you and your furbaby out anytime, and treat each dog as my own. I am available for walks, in home visits and overnights. I can send you pics of your pups while you’re out of town, or we can even FaceTime. Whatever makeyou feel comfortable! I also do cold laser therapy (fda approved for pain, inflammation , arthritis, injuries ) for dogs, cats and horses! I am constantly driving all over Syracuse, so don’t let my location bother you! From Camillus, to Cicero and Jamesville, No location is really out of my way! I hope to hear from you soon , help you out and meet your awesome fur babies!
About: I’ve have cared for many dogs in my lifetime. I frequently house sat for friends, and family. By day, I work part time at the front desk of a local dog shelter, which keeps me highly organized, safety-conscious, and comfortable with all kinds of breeds. My shifts are in the afternoon. This flexibility means I can easily accommodate early mornings, evenings, or weekend care depending on the week—just shoot me a message and we can always find a time that works! I work part time mid day so I will have plenty of time in the mornings or evenings to provide care for your dog to fit your schedule and needs. I typically spend more time with a dog than the typical owner. I love dogs immensely and give them my full attention when house sitting.
“Lory was amazing. We have only had Clover for a week and were pretty hesitant about having a stranger come to our house and take care of our new puppy. She was nothing but compassionate and professional. We met before the service so we could all meet and get comfortable. We will definitely be seeing more of her and would recommend her.”
About: I’ve owned a dog or two since I could walk. I dog sit for family & friends. I care that they feel safe, loved, & secure while you are out. Their well being matters to me. I currently work partime, 2 days a week. I am available to work your dogs potty breaks and walks around mine pretty easily. I love to walk myself, so walking your pup is easy. I love making our fur babies happy! I have a fenced yard and live in a lovely safe neighborhood to walk dogs. I have room enough inside to throw a ball and play. I care that your dog feels safe and not abandoned. I’ll love them like they were my own.
“We are glad we found Sarah through Rover! She came to our home and spent 30 minutes to meet and greet our dog. This initial bonding was so helpful in getting our dog comfortable with Sarah so that she could enjoy her first walk. Sarah is on time, good at checking in with us, and very calm with our dog. We look forward to more walks in the future!”
“Isaiah was able to come at the last minute to help when our sitter had to take care of a personal matter. Our boys are a handful and they seemed to acclimate to him amazing! Highly recommend!”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Westvale is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Westvale
Samatha is kind, communicative, and a true dog person. She has walked my big anxious boxer several times now and she is my first choice when I need a dog walker. She is the highlight of my dog’s day when she walks her, and I plan to book with her again in the future.
I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough! She is truly amazing—caring, friendly, dependable, and always go above and beyond. From the very beginning, Lisa treated my mom’s dog, Teddy, like family and made sure every walk was filled with attention, affection, and fun. Her reliability and professionalism give me complete peace of mind, knowing my mom’s furry friend is in the best hands. It’s clear she genuinely love animals, and my mom and Teddy absolutely adore her. She also takes the time to make sure my mom is doing well. She always takes special care of my mom. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated to caring for your pet, I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa. Lisa is simply the best!
Carly has been wonderful with my senior dog. She is patient with him and goes above and beyond to help him get outside and enjoy his walks. I also appreciate her flexibility when I have asked for earlier or additional visits for him. Been such a relief to have her check in on him when I am at work🙂

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

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.
