“So happy to have found Lauren for dog walking while I was out of town! I know my pup was in safe hands and had some great walks! Would absolutely book Lauren again anytime!”


About: With about 18 years of hands on pet care experience, what truly sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and deep understanding of animal behavior. Whether it’s a shy rescue who needs gentle encouragement or a senior cat who needs extra comfort and medication, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. I have loved and cared for animals since the day I was born. I have 5 dogs, a mini horse, and two rabbits. My goal is always to provide a stress-free, trustworthy experience for both pets and their people. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time during the week to take care of your babies when needed. My schedule is very flexible right now. I prefer not to work on the weekends, but if it is needed, I will make it work. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I take time to learn their habits—feeding schedules, favorite hiding spots, play routines, and any medical needs—so I can provide care that feels familiar and comforting. I make sure litter boxes are clean, water is always fresh, and your pet gets plenty of attention and affection at their own pace. For shy or senior pets, I move slowly and calmly, always respecting their space and personality.

About: I have taken care of my family members' cats and dogs whenever they go out. Making sure they feel safe and comfortable they can be. I privately grew up with so many animals and gave them the best care they deserve. I enjoy being around pets and playing with them when I have time. I have a fenced yard. Three small puppies that won't care if they have guests. Furthermore, have cats but they don't go into the backyard.


“Jay is very reliable and takes great care of my dog, Emma. It has been life changing to find someone trustworthy to make sure she has an hour long walk and fed while I am at work. I highly recommend Jay!”


“Tanya is the best! My crazy lab, Rhett, loves his walks. She is wonderful, dependable and a great dog handler! If you’re “on the fence” about hiring a dog sitter or walker, you won’t regret hiring Tanya.”


About: I’ve worked with dogs of all ages – from energetic puppies who need structure and basic training, to senior dogs who require a gentler pace, extra attention, and sometimes medication or special care. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every animal like they’re my own – with affection, respect, and lots of belly rubs. I also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m available every day, at any time, which means I can easily fit into your pet’s schedule—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time. Being flexible allows me to give each pet the attention and consistency they need, and I’m always happy to adapt to their unique routines and personalities. Spending time with animals is one of the best parts of my day, and I make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for at all times. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that includes feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, crate training, or administering medication. I always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their own environment, and I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own.

“Skylar was a huge help when I needed a dog walker the very next day due. She was quick to reply, asked all the necessary questions and was very easy to communicate with. Thank you so much! Hope to use you again soon :)”


“Emily did great with my dog Joss and helped out on short notice after our dog walker wasn’t able to make it. She was accommodating to Joss and his big personality. Would defiantly use again”


About: I have taken care of older dogs and younger dogs, I feed them and take them out. I have a 14 year old dog at home. I’m currently not working but looking for a part time job, so I’ll have time to take care of your dogs. I’m available any day of week. I have one friendly dog and I can crate your dog if needed and I will always watch to make sure that they are safe.

“Athena is AMAZING and a literal lifesaver!! She took great care of both of my fur babies, and on short notice as well. I had a last minute trip out of town, and another person that backed out the day before. I reached out to Athena, she responded immediately, and was so easy to work with. I was very comfortable having her come to my home, and she was friendly and extremely professional the entire time. She provided pictures and full detailed updates. I felt so at ease and stress free being out of town knowing that my babies were in such good hands!! I will DEFINITELY be booking with Athena again!!”


About: I grew up with pets in the home. I had cats, dogs and bunnies. I’ve also cared for a snake and a guinea pig. I love animals, and I’m a clean person and that shows in me cleaning up after pets. I’ve had experience helping train dogs and puppies. I’ve nursed abandoned kittens back to health and usually connect well with animals. I’ll treat them like they are my own. I currently work a job where I have varying availability depending on the day but mostly free in the mornings and I am free on weekends depending on the day, happy to provide my schedule for the day or week if needed! I can spend a dedicated amount of time playing with your pet when I am there. I also enjoy being outdoors so long walks with your pet work great for me. I also have a clean pet friendly apartment and can board your pet while you are gone or come to your home while you are gone. I follow instructions well on how you would like your pet cared for. I have multiple walking locations to take your pet on long walks. If you send a crate I can crate your pet if you prefer. I can be up early or late if your pet is used to a certain feeding schedule.

About: I've raised my own dogs from 1 month old to 12.5 years! I help take care of my families 17+ year-old cat. I have been a CNA in senior living care (including Alzheimer's care) for over 10 years. Humans and animals hold a very special place in my heart and taking care of and spending time with them brings me much joy! I am very attentive, playful and caring! For me it's not just about basic needs (i.e. food, water, potty, baths), but also psychosocial needs such as belly rubs, fetch, walks, etc. I'm happy to show your pet lots of attention if that's something they like! I like clear instructions especially if your pet has a strictly set routine so I can keep things consistent for them! :-D I'm currently working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your pet's needs! I am happy to be flexible and hope you'll communicate your needs as well as your pet's! I have a fenced yard in a safe suburban neighborhood. Besides pets of family and close friends, I have mostly cared for pets in their own home. I may be open to sitting at my own home depending on the pet's behavior/habits and ability to adapt. I certainly want any pet to feel safe and secure!

About: Have been owning my own dogs & cats for 30 years. I’ve also sat for friends’ dogs and cats as favors when out of town. This involves cleaning up, feeding, potty breaks or walks, medicating if required, and of course engagement and playing! I also love meeting new pets and look forward to any opportunity to build new relationships! My last dog Chloe (the yellow mix in majority of my photos) passed away of health issues at the age of 14, she was my third pet to pass of old age. Caring for animals and interacting with new people is a welcome break from 9-5 work. That being said, I have open availability and would be willing to drop in or stay the entire time, your choice! I have availability everyday, including weekends and holidays. I can arrive as early as 10am and can stay as late as 8pm. Exceptions can be made for an additional fee. My drop in routine is typically feed first, cleanup (if litter box or puppy pads are used) or potty break, walk or play, then enrichment or bonding time. At my home I have a fenced in backyard, and hardwood floors inside. I’d prefer to crate or isolate if pet is staying overnight in my home, however will work with whatever routine you and your pet is comfortable with in own home.

About: First time using Rover? Use code LINDSB30957 for $20 off your first booking! Hi there! I’m Lindsey, and my family has 2 dogs and 2 cats. I find joy in helping family and friends with their pets whenever I can, and I simply love caring for and being around animals. I’m a true dog lover, but I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles… you name it. I would love to help local families out with their pets, make a weekend getaway or night out/away from a pet less stressful, and care for wonderful pets! I get quite worried when I have to leave my own pets behind, and I found myself leaving “high maintenance” requests of pet sitters. So, even the most “high maintenance” or “silly” requests are perfectly fine with me, as I know how hard it is to leave your pet behind! I will ensure I can accommodate all owner requests before accepting, and I’ll send frequent pictures, videos, and updates during your time away. I will care for your pets as if they’re my own, and you can rest assured they’ll get the love, care, and attention they need to feel as safe as possible during our visits! For housesitting and drop-in visits, just let me know if you’d like any plants watered, mail gathered, etc.!

About: I love spending time with animals and making sure they stay entertained and happy. I like to look for any opportunity to spend time with them! I'm currently on summer break from school. My school starts later than most schools, so I am free all of July, August, and until September 5th! Spending the summer caring for animals is a perfect way to spend summer break! I care for your pets according to your rules and their needs, and I am also a great house sitter. I'm here to keep your pets well cared for and happy while you are away!

Willow Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Helen was great! She took great care of my dog and my parent's energetic dog. She took them for walks and hung out with them inside for a little while before she left because it was so hot out. Helen also made sure they had a full water bowl before she left. Will definitely be reaching out to her again!

Sydney was great! She responded promptly to my requests and any questions I had about my dogs’ care. My two dogs adored her and had so much fun playing with and getting walked by her! You can tell she has experience with animals as she was very competent handling them! She only came into my house to grab them and was respectful of the space! Would recommend!
