About: Hi! My name is Iyah, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. While I am new to Rover, I'm not new to caring for fur-babies!! I have loved animals of all kinds since I arrived on this earth! I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels through previous and current professional work experience at a dog and cat care/boarding business, along with caring for pets in my personal life as well. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic grooming care, administering medications when needed, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also understand that every dog is different, so I always try to pay attention to their personality, routines, boundaries, body language and needs. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including anxious pets. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always aim to provide reliable care, consistent communication, and lots of updates/photos for peace of mind. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I’ll make sure they receive patience, attention, love and genuine care. Your baby will be cared for and loved on as if they were my own. For me to be even more successful in what I do, I love all my clients to give me as much details about their babies as possible, I'm here to accommodate, support and make you and your pet-parent life as comfortable as possible. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾 ⚠️DISCLAIMER⚠️ 🐾 Meet My Pet-Care Partner! For transparency and safety, I want all pet parents to know that my fiancé, Robert, may accompany me for certain bookings—particularly overnight house-sitting stays or bookings farther away from home. Robert and I both work professionally with animals full-time and have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with different personalities, routines, and needs. We genuinely love what we do, and your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. 🐶🐱💕 For house-sitting bookings, I may request that Robert accompany me, as I am a young woman staying overnight in an unfamiliar home and area. I completely understand that this is your home, so this will always be discussed with you beforehand—there will never be an unexpected additional guest in your home. You’re also more than welcome to meet both of us during our Meet & Greet so you can feel completely comfortable with who will be caring for your pets and staying in your home. My goal is for everyone to feel safe and comfortable—your pets, you, and us! 🐾🤍 I work two jobs, but my schedules aren't consistent. I'm open to taking care of your babies whenever I am off and whenever I do have free time. I would prefer coming to your home to care for your babies as I do still stay with family who are not as dog crazy and loving as me.

“Jennifer is the most kindest, personable, and reliable walker that I have ever experienced. I had a major surgery, and I was so concerned about boarding, my dog, or leaving her alone Jennifer made the process so easy I was never concerned with the care that she gave to my baby. Not only did she give excellent care to her. She kept me informed on every move that my baby did. She took lots of pictures and she helped me as well. When I came back from out of the hospital Jennifer is God sent. I would never let anyone else watch my baby, except for her , she makes me feel very comfortable and relaxed. She really loves you on your fur baby like you would. My fur baby doesn’t open up to anyone that quickly, but with Jennifer she was happy to see her. Jennifer made sure she had lots of treats for her and she was just amazing. My fur baby felt safe and relaxed. I would highly recommend everyone to allow Jennifer to watch their fur baby. If you want someone or you don’t even have to think or blink twice you know that you’re a fur baby is in good hands Jennifer is the way to go. I would like to thank her so much for walking my baby for helping me and just being an all-around good person .”

About: For them, loving care when you're not there, and for you, peace of mind from anywhere!! Imagine coming home to a pet who's not just content, but truly thriving, tail wagging, eyes sparkling, and a little extra spring in their step. That’s the experience I strive to create for every animal I care for. Hi, I’m Laura, a lifelong animal lover who has cared for everything from playful pups to curious foxes. I understand that every pet is unique, which is why I take the time to get to know their personalities, quirks, and routines. Your instructions are my playbook, and their happiness is my mission. Whether your companions are bursting with energy or prefer the cozy naps of a dormouse, I’m dedicated to making sure they feel safe, engaged, and loved. With Colorado’s beautiful trails at our doorstep, every walk is an adventure waiting to happen, and your pet might just find their new favorite sitter along the way. With over seven years of compassionate hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including seniors and those with medical needs, I am committed to providing thoughtful, reliable, and compassionate care. Each animal’s unique personality and routine are at the heart of my approach, ensuring every pet receives the individual attention they deserve. I understand that some pets have special needs. Whether that means medical care, managing medications, or following a specific routine, I’m here to help. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, including seniors and those with health concerns. I am fully equipped to handle medication administration and any other specific needs your pet may have. I always take every precaution to make your pet’s well-being my top priority. I am available every day except Saturdays, with flexibility to accommodate your schedule. For house-sitting services, I’m happy to be there on Saturdays if it’s part of a previously scheduled arrangement. Your pet’s care and your convenience are my priorities, and I’m here to help however I can. I accept same day booking!! With atleast a 4 hour notice, last minute bookings will have a one-time fee of $40. When you're away, I know how important it is to stay connected and informed. That's why I provide regular updates, time-stamped check-ins, and immediate communication if anything feels out of the ordinary. If there’s ever any concern or question, I’m always just a message away, ready to provide reassurance. Your peace of mind is just as important to me as your pet's happiness.

“Lillie was wonderful! She walked Shenna three days in a row when I couldn't, and Shenna loved her -- was so excited at the door when Lillie arrived. We did hour-long walks that ended up being around 2.5 miles each day, and my girlie always arrived back home happy and tired. I will more than gladly do repeat bookings. Thanks so much, Lillie!”

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of different ages and needs, including senior dogs who require extra patience and attention. I’ve done multiple day pet sitting where I followed a set schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m very attentive to routines and understand how important consistency is for pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I also provide updates and pictures so you always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive consistent attention, feeding, and bathroom breaks. I’m flexible and able to do morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure I’m fully present during each visit so your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and any special care needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. For pets that need extra patience, like seniors, I take my time and make sure they feel calm and secure.

About: Over the 10 past years, I have been able to build amazing bonds with my furry clients and their owners. I started pet sitting when I was 14 to show my mom responsibility and that I could take care of a dog on my own (it took 5 years to convince her btw). My mom agreed to it, and my classmate dropped off Leo, a 7 year old Shitzu, at my house and it was the best week of my summer break. Since then, I have cared for puppies as young as 8 weeks to seniors up to 17 years. I have been able to keep loyal and consistent clients because of my trust and honesty, but also because I am able to adapt to each pets different personality and energy. I have experience with all types of dog breeds from chihuahuas to pitbulls and yorkies to labradoodles, as well as cats since 2020! I treat every home with respect and every animal as if they were my own. My main goal is to keep them happy and in their normal routine for meals, walks, and medications, as well as providing peace of mind for owners. Message me with any questions or to set up a meet and greet 🐾 I'm currently in my last year of college and am on campus Monday - Wednesday. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and I'll be looking forward to having new study partners 🐶🐱 I ask about and respect boundaries they have for the home. I keep pets in their routine as close as possible. If a feeding or walk time interferes with a class, I communicate with owners to let them know. I like to ask questions and then schedule a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit.

About: With over 13 years of experience, I provide a safe, adaptive, and nurturing environment for pets of all ages and energy levels. For senior, shy, and low-energy pets, I offer gentle, slower-paced routines. For puppies and high-energy pets, I provide the engagement and play they need to stay happy. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take pride in adapting to their specific needs. Whether they need long nature walks, cuddles, or simply some alone time, they will receive exactly that. To ensure your complete peace of mind while away, I will also provide frequent photo and video updates! As a university student with in-person classes only twice a week, I have a highly flexible schedule. I'm available almost any day of the week for boarding and dog/cat sitting. While my weekly schedule changes based on my studies and schoolwork, any pet care can be placed between them all. If there is a day or time you need me to be available that is not on my availability, I am always happy to negotiate! In my home, I adapt the pets' schedule to the way my home is. I have plenty of roaming space inside, but also outside for pets (leashed) that enjoy being outside and exploring. If your dog is crate-trained and needs to be in theirs, I can easily crate them. I also have 4 friendly cats that can keep your pet company, but if your pet does not like other animals, I also have the layout to keep them safely separated. In my client's home, I simply follow the schedule and rules they have for their pets. If you still feel unsure or your pet needs specific accommodation, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. I would like your pet to experience only the highest quality stay/care!

About: Animal lover and experienced dog owner with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I care for every pet as if they were my own and provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. Happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. 😊 I work from home, so I’m around most of the day. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I already plan my day around my own dog. Your pet would get lots of attention, care, and a consistent routine while they’re with me. At my home, pets have a calm, safe space with a fenced yard for play and plenty of room inside, including extra space if they need a quiet area. I’m home most of the day, so they get lots of attention and care.I also have a friendly dog, and I always make sure introductions are done slowly and comfortably. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over five years and have loved pets my entire life. As a full-time sitter, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, relaxing on the couch, or just lots of affection, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care and are treated like part of my family. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Because I’m home full-time, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention throughout the day. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed unless we’re in a designated off-leash area with your permission. I take the time to build trust with each pet and ensure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved animals. I have always had a family pet and I currently have a sweet puppy of my own, his name is Ollie. In high school I volunteered at local animal shelters and started dog/ farm sitting for friends and family. It is one of my lifetime dreams to open up a doggy cafe and maybe even a doggy day camp. So if you ever need anyone to dog sit, walk your pups, or even just hang out with them for a little while… I am super flexible and more than willing!! I have a very flexible and remote job, so I can always find time to escape to go play with some pups! I’m available more often than not for dog/housesitting, walks, and check ins throughout the week!! My biggest concern is that your fur baby is happy and healthy. Every family is different and every dog may require different needs, I understand that and know that all too well. I am pretty flexible and up for anything to ensure your pup is living their best life. I am a big fan of communication so I will always ask questions if any situation arises. And I will keep you updated with tons of cute photos of your sweet babies.

About: I will be home a lot, for the most part, with lots of free time during the week and on the weekends. I do have availability on holidays and will not be leaving town. I have a Veterinarian Assistant certificate which includes professional experience working in a veterinarian office. I frequently pet sit for family members. I also have over 4yrs experience as a kennel lead. Most importantly I am very passionate about animals and I'm very excited to be working on starting a lifetime career in the animal industry. I will treat your dog like I would my own with all the love and care possible. I am home most of the day. During any pets visit, they will never be alone. Your pet will have access to most of the house and a fenced in back yard for play and potty breaks. If I need to leave your pet alone, I do have a crate available for their safety. My home is pet safe. My children are well aware of how to respect pets boundaries. I have areas in my home for your pet to be separate from anything they are uncomfortable with.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who specializes in making pets feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’ve spent the last 10+ years living with and caring for cats, so I’m an expert at reading their moods—from high-energy play to quiet snuggles. I also spent 5 wonderful years as a dog owner, so I’m no stranger to belly rubs and neighborhood walks! Whether your pet is a shy kitty or a social pup, I’ll treat them like my own family. I’m self employed and have plenty of flexibility and time to take care of your furry babies. I am generally available all week as needed. I treat your pets like family! For cats, I prioritize a fresh environment: cleaning the litter box, refreshing water fountains, and following precise feeding schedules. For dogs, I’m all about fun walks and engaging play. I am happy to accommodate any special requests to keep your routine consistent. Most importantly, I’ll send plenty of photos and videos so you can see exactly how much fun your furry friend is having!

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 Whistleville. 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 Whistleville after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Whistleville. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
