“Nataleigh is awesome. Are Malinois, Sela, is always excited to see her. Sela has been recovering from knee surgery and Nataleigh takes extra care of Sela, making sure she takes her meds and gets the right amount of walking in”
About: I grew up with lots of animals that always needed extra care and love. I also have taken care of seniors that need extra attention, patience, and medication. I just recently graduated cosmetology school so I’m taking time off in the mean time to explore other areas. I have open availability so my focus can be on your fur babies I keep plenty of toys and litter boxes around the home. I keep evening tidy and clean for my animals. I like to meet the animal first to make sure it’ll be a good fit and to ensure I am capable of taking care of them
“Melissa is a wonderful sitter! We use her all the time for the cat, but this was the first time we used her for dog-walking and she was just as great! So attentive to our pup.”
“She handled my 88 lb lab puppy with ease. She took him for a fun snowy winter walk and accommodated my last minute request to schedule. My dog tends to jump and is a little too exuberant. I'm so relieved to have found someone who can handle his high energy. Will definitely book again. Thank you, Crissy!”
“Tracey was wonderful! She took care of my 2 dogs and cat. They got exercise, fed, and love during her visits. I would definitely look Tracey again. Thank you so much for watching our babies!”
“Brianna was absolutely wonderful with my baby girl, Sammy. She communicates well, shares cute photos every day, and took the time to come meet Sammy and see how she’s doing! I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!”

Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own.

“Fern walked my dog two mornings in a row and she was always punctual, and overall amazing!! No complaints whatsoever. My Dutch Shepherd can be highly energetic but Fern knew how to connect with her from day 1”
About: I have always had animals in my life. I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, birds, horses, ducks, chickens, turkeys and goats. I currently have 3 cats and a dog. For as long as I can remember animals have always been in my life! I’ve worked with animals from young kittens and puppies to seniors, I absolutely love spending time with other people’s pets along with my own. I am a college student taking classes in the summer. I am available to take care of your pet babies overnight and in the morning to afternoon to early evening I give all our cats and dog the best treatment possible, I wake up and feed them, take our dog on walks, cuddle up with the kitties while doing homework and spend the night with all of them sleeping in my bed with me (I love them so much I let them sleep on my pillow and steal 90% of the bed space😂)
About: I have previous experience taking care of senior dogs, active dogs, smaller dogs, and multiple dogs at once. I love any dog I take care of! I currently have a flexible schedule allowing me to take care of my dog daily as well as your dog! My flexibility allows me to watch your dog anytime! My fenced in yard allows your dog to have some freedom while we play outside! If your dog needs some alone time, I can crate them with a treat or toy while they relax!
About: I provide dependable, personalized care by treating every pet like family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets with special routines, and I always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work part-time as a virtual therapist, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, and personalized care. I make sure every pet receives the time, care, and updates they deserve while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they receive fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also keep their environment clean, follow any special care instructions, and provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I have experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities, from playful and energetic cats to shy or more independent ones. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and keeping up with each cat’s normal routine. I’m patient and gentle, especially with cats who need extra time to feel comfortable around someone new. I’ll always treat your cats with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for drop-in visits throughout the week and can make time for feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your cat’s usual schedule as closely as possible so they can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine while you’re away. I always make safety and comfort a priority when caring for cats/dogs in their own home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their feeding and litter routine consistent, and make sure doors and windows are secure. I understand that some cats are shy or cautious around new people, so I’m patient and let them approach me at their own pace. I’ll keep their space clean, give them plenty of attention and playtime if they want it, and treat both your cat and your home with care and respect.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Woodhaven
Alyssa was a total lifesaver! We wound up needing to bring our dog on a trip to Northern VA at the last minute and needed someone to walk her. Alyssa was prompt in her communication and asked great questions to make sure our dog was comfortable. She kept us posted on her arrival, let us know how the walk went, and sent photos. We will definitely contact her again when we are in town visiting. Thanks, Alyssa!
Elizabeth has such a calm and reassuring demeanor, and my dog absolutely lights up when she comes over for a walk. She communicates quickly and clearly, which makes scheduling around my work week incredibly easy. I always know my dog is in good hands with her. Highly recommend!
I had the pleasure of having Lilly, walk my Dog Simon 3-4xs a week for 2 months. She was always punctual on timing and if she was ever running behind she would make sure to give a notice. Most importantly I enjoyed seeing Simòn happy upon her arrival, tail wagging through my Furbo Dog camera, she always greeted him with scratches and made sure to give him a treat before leaving. I appreciated the photos during the walks around the neighborhood or if Simòn was being lazy instead of ending the walk she would sit outside with him while he sun bathed giving him scratches. Lilly thank you so much for helping me out during this time!

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 Woodhaven. 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.
