“We absolutely love, Alexia! She is consistently punctual and genuinely engages with our dog during his walks. What really stands out as how well she manages him, especially when he gets reactive around cars and certain dogs. Alexia took the time to do a meet and greet before our first walk, which made all the difference in ensuring everything went smoothly. We've already booked her for multiple walks and will definitely continue using her services. We feel so fortunate to have found her!”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Ryan, and I’m beyond excited to walk/hang with your pets! I take this job very seriously, as I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and have experience walking/sitting for many different pets (of all sizes/breeds/and temperaments). Send me a message with any requests! I work part time and do freelance so I have a lot of availability to take care of your pet’s needs, whether that be some extra attention, playtime, walks, drop-ins etc. Just shoot me a message and I can more than likely make myself available for whatever your needs may be! I am very respectful when entering clients homes to take care of their pets. I myself have grown up with dogs and cats, and completely understand all boundaries pet parents may have - whether they’re allowed on the furniture, outside, crate-time etc. The rules and routine you've established with your pets is what's most important! Whether you have a shy cat that just needs to be fed, or a rambunctious dog that needs to get its energy out, I've got you covered!

About: I have been around animals my entire life! Growing up my family had dogs, chickens, cats. Currently we have 2 beagles and a black cat named Izzy! My other family members began asking me to watch their animals when they went away on trips or to stop by the house if they were stuck at work. This branched to them recommending me to their friends and now here we are! I have been watching the furry loved ones of others for about 4-5 years now and have loved every second of it. I know how scary it can be to leave behind the animals that you consider your children so I am here to make that process a little easier! I’ve taken care of puppies, dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, and horses. All animals deserved to be spoiled and loved by all 💛 I am currently a therapist that works mostly afternoon/evening hours. My daytime availability ranges day to day but getting to create my own schedule allows for flexibility! Owners know their pets best! Any information provided to me about your furry friend will be implemented so that all parties feel safe and well cared for!

“Megan is great!! She came along with my fiancé and I to take pictures in the park and took care of our two high energy Australian Shepherds for the pictures they were not in with us. She was very patient with them both and cared for them both greatly. I would definitely recommend her and use her again for any needs!”

“Highly recommend Ryan! He took the time to do a meet and greet and really understand my dog’s specific needs. He was very communicative and flexible whenever any changes came up, which I truly appreciated. What stood out most was how he followed my dog’s training routines and even used the exact phrases we’ve been working on. He handled my dog’s reactivity with care and confidence, and it made a huge difference. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands!”

Because I work remotely, I can take my work anywhere. So, I will be able to stay with your pet for the duration you are gone. I work from home. And have the ability to work from anywhere. I will bring my laptop and be able to work and keep your baby company. Taking care of them in familiar surroundings.

About: I am a true animal lover. I think animals become our family and I want you to feel comfortable that I will treat your pet like my own went in my care. I have experience with many kinds of animals, dogs, cats, hamsters, and reptiles. I am patient and kind and love to get to know your pet. This is currently my only job, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available morning, afternoons and evenings for visits. I can help on weekdays or weekends. I first get to know your pets basic needs, ensuring their safety, and offering enrichment. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring proper elimination, creating a safe and comfortable environment, offering exercise and playtime, and attending to any medical or behavioral needs. I am comfortable with small and large dogs as well as small pets and reptiles.

About: Pet Care Experience & What Sets Me Apart I have a lifetime of hands-on experience as a pet owner and caregiver. My two white Pitt-mixes, ages 9 and 7, have given me a deep understanding of raising dogs from puppyhood through their senior years. I'm set apart by my ability to connect with animals of all temperaments. I have a solid grasp of dog behavior, honed by training one of my own dogs and patiently working with another to overcome social anxieties. This experience allows me to build trust and confidently manage a wide variety of personalities. For over 17 years, I've provided both short and long-term care for numerous German Shepherd mixes, so I'm comfortable with large, high-energy breeds. More recently, I regularly helped a friend with their foster dogs, acting as a dog walker, playmate, and emergency contact. I'm also reliable with cats and have routinely cared for my neighbor's cat, including feeding, refreshing water, and daily litter box scooping. I offer a professional and consistent approach to pet care. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet by ensuring their specific needs are met with attention and care. Weekends I am flexible enough to assist with pet care. Likewise, on Wednesdays I WFH, which allows me some flexibility to help with mid-day walks and bathroom breaks. When I come to your home, I'll always provide your pets and your space with the utmost care and respect. I will always match their energy: if they want to play, we'll play; if they want to snuggle, we'll snuggle; if they need space, I'll be sad, but I'll completely understand.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, from small dogs to large breeds and playful puppies. I’m currently training our own puppy, so I have hands-on experience with patience, consistency, basic training, and keeping a young dog engaged. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll take the time to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I work three days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability on my days off, especially weekends. I enjoy spending time with pets and can dedicate time to walks, playtime, training, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to give each pet the attention they need rather than simply fitting them into a busy routine. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. We have a backyard (not fenced) and are close to great walking paths, a golf course, and a dog park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, play, and exercise. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust activities based on their age, energy level, and personality. Most importantly, they’ll get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while you’re away.

About: My wife and I had a dog for 13 years and enjoyed taking her hiking and swimming throughout her active years and snuggling on the couch when she became a senior. I'm familiar with the whole life cycle of dog care. From helping puppies get all the wiggles out to carrying seniors whose legs are arthritic and no longer at their best. Now that our girl, Nala has passed away, we are enjoying connecting with others' pets. I have an unconventional schedule for work and am available to let your dog out from 9 am until noon on Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. Wednesdays and Thursdays are my days off and I'm free to hang with your pup any time! I'm very committed to pet safety and will want to understand all situations in which your dog may become reactive so that we avoid putting your pet in a situation that will make him or her uncomfortable. I also have a tracker that I like to put on all dogs in my care just in case they get spooked or something unexpected happens while we are together.

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 Whispering Woods. 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.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Whispering Woods after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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.

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.
