About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 32 years, I have worked as a kennel assistant at 17 for Lake Houston Animal Clinic and was a Kennel Manager for 4 years for Best Friends Pet Resort in Spring, Tx. I have experience and knowledge with different breeds as well as specific character traits of most breeds. I fostered with Montgomery County Animal Shelter for roughly 4 years and I'm used to administering both oral and injected medication and am familiar with many different health issues. I have been pet sitting off and on since 2005 as, I have a good client base but I'm looking to expand my business. I love dogs and cats....we speak each other's language! Its a joy to be able to care for other's furbabies while I'm out running errands, in between work schedules or even just enjoying the day. Being with the animals is a joy and not a just a job. I pet sit from the client's home so that thier furbaby can remain in the comfort of their own home while mom and/or dad are away.
About: I've worked at an animal shelter and I foster for that animal shelter now! I have four cats. And one dog and a couple foster dogs! Ive pet sit a lot I have just decided to try out rover! Everyone who knows me knows my love for animals and I'm always the person they call when they need help with theirs! I'm excited to meet your fur babies and very lucky if you choose to trust me with them ! :) I am available Monday - Thursday typically anytime. I don't mind to do multiple drop ins! My schedule varies week to week but as long as i'm gave a heads up I can move my schedule around! Leave me a detailed list of how to care for your babies & I will try my hardest to go above and beyond to fulfill it!
About: I’ve taken care of my brothers, friends, and family’s dogs periodically throughout the decades and have now personally had my own pup for going on 3 years. I make it a point to give each dog, whether it’s mine or someone’s else’s a fun and good life to live. A dormant unattended to dog bothers me to no end so your dog would be in not only great hands but hands that will actively pursue making your dad have the best day! I currently work weekends at the hospital so most of my week days are free and clear! I’m a natural night owl so being up late isn’t a problem either I live in a fenced/gated town home community with extremely friendly neighbors who all have dogs. We have a gated dog park for all the dogs to mingle and play as well as many parks and fields surrounding the home to where they can get exercise! Each dog will be directly cared for 1 on 1 with me in my townhome to ensure proper care
“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”
“Justin might as well be a dog whisperer. Our pups love him and he incorporates his dog training knowledge while providing excellent care, including phenomenal photos. If he can wrangle our 160 lbs of 2 rowdy schnauzers (giant/standard), he can handle anything. 6 out of 5 stars.”
About: I have always been around a lot of dogs, cats, horses, chickens you name it, growing up on a farm gave me much discipline needed for pet care. My schedule is open! I am a student at UTC and have classes during the week 9-5ish but free in evenings and on weekends. I prefer to care for pets in the clients home because I go to school away from where I live so I am mostly in Nashville.
About: With over two years of experience house sitting for friends and family—often for extended periods—I’ve earned a strong reputation for being dependable, respectful, and truly dedicated to the pets I care for. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, from energetic puppies to gentle senior pets, and I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, routines, and personalities. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to provide both companionship and specialized care, especially for older pets who need a little extra patience and attention. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply offering comfort and snuggles, I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is always to keep pets happy, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I am currently working part-time! But my schedule is completely up to me and flexible. The good thing about the job I work at is I get to create my own schedule! As long as I am kept in the loop with the people I provide services for dog sitting, walking, and care will always be my top priority! I treat every home and pet I care for with the same respect I’d want for my own. I always follow routines closely—whether it’s feeding, walking, or giving medication—and make sure pets stay safe by double-checking doors, gates, and anything they might get into. I’m clean, organized, and careful to leave the home just as I found it. Most importantly, I take time to understand each pet’s needs and personality so they feel comfortable, calm, and cared for while their owner is away. Trust and safety are always my top priorities!
About: I've been caring for cats, dogs, fish, and rodents since I could walk. I have had special needs animals, and have a background in Biology and Vet Assistant studies. Each bond is special, and I will treat your furry friends with the upmost care and attention. I am currently in between jobs, so my availability is highly flexible. I am open to over-night pet sitting, as well as multi-day drop ins to ensure pet needs are met. I am able to pet sit in the client's home where duties may include taking the pet for a walk, playing outside or inside for stimulation, providing meals and/or medications, providing companionship if that entails sitting with the pet for an extended amount of time.
About: I'm very passionate about dogs, animals, wildlife, etc! I love to hike and be active outdoors as much as possible. I have a variety of animal experience, I grew up on an Indiana farm caring for many animals. I worked at Petsmart as a dog groomer for 2 years, so I can trim/grind nails and bathe your dog :) I also worked at a veterinary hospital for 2 semesters. I'm currently in graduate school going for Master's of Biology. My classes are online so I have a very flexible, open schedule! Dog walking and sitting will help fund my schooling. I have experience working with almost all dog breeds, so I am able to personalize time spent with each dog according to their needs and comfort level. I have dog sat for many friends and family members in the past, even some with health concerns. I always train my own dogs, and have gone through Petsmart training curriculum to gain more knowledge on pet training. I would love to help enhance your pet's life in any way I can :) I have an open schedule, and can accommodate short or long term needs. I will make time to accommodate for your dog's preferential treatment and love. My 3 dogs are all unique and rescue pets, and require varied attention and diets, which I handle on a daily basis.Your dog's happiness is my priority
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have always had a natural love for caring for them! 🐾 I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs, cats, farm animals and reptiles. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, caring, and passionate about making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ Pet care has always been a part of my everyday life! I own a dog, two cats, a snake, bearded dragon, leopard gecko, and a betta fish, and that’s after I rehomed 5 animals lol. Caring for so many different animals has made taking care of pets a natural part of my daily routine. 🐾💕 I do not have a fenced-in backyard, so I wouldn’t have a private area to let your dog out, but we can always go somewhere public or use your yard if your home offers one. I also have a crate available if needed! I care for every animal with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention while sticking to their normal routines.

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 Whiteside. 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.
