About: I've helped raise my two family dogs! A Jack Russell Terrier and a Great Pyrenees. My family has had both since they were puppies so I have experience with puppy care! Having both breeds, I'm used to both small and large dogs. I have also been hired by family and friends to watch and walk their dogs while away on trips. I'm currently a college student and a part-time worker! I am able to find time in afternoons after my classes/shifts to take care of pets! I can do drop-ins to keep your pets daily routine uninterrupted! I am able to feed and replenish water bowls, take pets on potty breaks, and give some 1-1 attention!
“Really nice and professional and he was available even though I booked him at the very last minute. He treated both of my pups so well and I would definitely book Jim again!”
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

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!
“Melissa is practically part of the family at this point. Our golden girl absolutely loves her! We use her for weekly walks, drop in visits, and all out of town travel. She is always accommodating to our schedule and we are so lucky to have found her!”

About: Pet CPR certified, humanitarian. 7 years maintaining and managing a dog boarding and daycare facility. Looking to step away from big corporations and focus more on what can be done for the community. I am currently trying to find where I can assist most in this world and would love to help keep your pets cared for in the process of my journey. I am available every day, at all hours of the day. I live in a beautiful rambler right outside Manassas before 95. I have a half acre fenced yard and a medium sized dog who love to make new friends or keep to themselves if your dog prefers.
“Jacob was great with Bagel and took all of his hound antics in stride! Always on time, stuck to our little lunch routine, and was willing to meet Bagel ahead of the schedule to get to know him and his routine. He even brought treats, very thoughtful!”
“Mohamed is an amazing dog walker! Ana and Elsa always look excited and happy when he’s around. He’s reliable, caring, and truly attentive to their needs. We appreciate the updates and the love he shows our dogs—he treats them like his own. Highly recommend!”
“William was great! He was reliable, flexible, understanding, patient and very nice. He did great with my two dogs. One of them requires special attention during walks. Will did exceptional. Definitely will be telling my family and friends about him so they can use him too, I know I will be! Thanks again William!”
“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!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life, with dogs being a big part of that experience. I’ve owned dogs of my own for years, volunteered with local animal shelters, and fostered dogs, puppies, and kittens with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also cared for my own senior dogs and reactive dogs through different medical needs, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to changes in behavior or routine. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies, kittens and energetic young dogs to seniors who need a slower pace and extra care. I take the time to understand each as an individual and provide a balance of exercise, enrichment, structure, affection, and plenty of downtime. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and enrichment, and I can adjust to each pet’s usual routine as much as possible. I’m also able to accommodate different schedules and will communicate with you about your pet’s routine before their stay so they can feel comfortable and settled in my home! My priority is providing a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Before a stay, I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medical or behavioral considerations. For boarding and daycare, I use gradual introductions and closely supervise interactions with my own dogs. I’m also happy to provide separate spaces, feeding areas, and downtime when needed. Over the years, I’ve fostered dogs, puppies, kittens, and cats through local animal shelters, including pets with medical and behavioral needs. This experience has taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs and comfort level. I also prefer a meet & greet for new boarding and daycare clients so we can make sure everyone is comfortable and that my home is a good fit for your pet.
“I could not have found for a better sitter for my baby girl Ivy. Ivy has a lot of anxiety and Kat jump right In, understood and gave ivy for extra care and love she needed while I was out of town. She is truly a fur baby caregiver. I will use her again for my next trip. I would advise anyone looking for a sitter to reach out to her. She's my first experience with Rover and has truly made me a return customer. Kat you have truly touch my heart with the cure you and your husband gave Ivy. THANK YOU 😊”

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!

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 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 .
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.
