“Stefanie has done a great job with our dogs, both for walks and drop ins. She’s attentive, communicative, and great with both of our dogs! Highly recommend her if you need anything.”
“Samantha is very caring and conscientious. She shows up on time and gives me the details of what is happening with my fur baby. I love how she provides pictures and you know your pet will be treated with respect. :)”
“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!”
About: What sets me apart is my 15 years of hands-on experience caring for and raising pets. Growing up surrounded by animals taught me how to understand their body language, recognize their needs, and make them feel safe and comfortable. I'm responsible, reliable, and respectful of your home, and I'm committed to keeping it secure while ensuring your pets stay happy, loved, and relaxed in their normal routine while you're away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I currently have a highly flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I have plenty of open time to dedicate to your pets and am very adaptable based on what you and your animal need. I always keep my availability calendar completely updated so you know exactly when I am free! When I'm watching pets, keeping them safe is always my main focus. I always make sure to follow all the owner's rules exactly, double-check that all the doors and gates are locked tight,and maintain a clean, hazard-free environment. I make sure pets are well-supervised, fed on time, and treated with the same love and respect I give my own animals.
“Chris has been absolutely fantastic with our dog and a huge help to our family. He comes by twice a week like clockwork to walk and feed our dog, and he’s consistently punctual, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Our dog clearly enjoys his time with Chris, and it gives me comfort knowing he’s in good hands. Highly recomended.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, giving me 15 years of hands-on experience across all breeds and sizes. From large, powerful breeds like Rottweilers, Pitbulls, and Great Danes to spirited Schnauzers and my current 4-year-old French Bulldog, I understand how to adjust my care to every dog's unique personality and energy level. Whether your pup needs confident, experienced handling on walks or gentle, focused attention, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Pet care is my top priority! I manage my schedule carefully to ensure every dog gets full attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and daily exercise. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or house sitting, I have flexible availability to match your dog's exact daily routine. Having raised dogs my whole life—from large breeds like Great Danes and Pitbulls to smaller pups like my Frenchie—I prioritize safety above all else. In your home, I keep the environment secure, strictly follow all feeding and leash protocols, and provide frequent updates and photos so you have total peace of mind.
“Omg I love Megan for taking such good care of my Rocky while I am recovering from surgery. I was so worried who would walk him during the day. She has been truly an amazing person and Rocky loves her. He knows when she is walking up the steps and waiting by the door. Thank you again so much Megan for taking such good of my pupson.”
About: I have had pets all my life. I started helping take care of my cat and dogs at around 10 years old. I help out with my friends and extended family members pets as well. My dog takes medication in the morning so I can administer medication if needed. She has also gone through two surgeries so I can help during pet recovery as well. I’ve had hyperactive dogs as well as territorial/ toy-aggressive dogs and know how to deal with them. I have also had dogs who needed extra care due to being old. I do know a little bit about training dogs but not much. I work part time and go to college full time. However, I live at home with my parents so I can fit pet care into my schedule. I have a fenced backyard for my dog to run around or just lay outside. I walk her 2/3 times a day and she gets fed twice a day, morning and evening. I also spend a lot of time with her whether it’s playing around or just watching tv. If I am caring for someone else’s pets, I feed the pets and play with them as well as hang out with them.
“Melissa was great. My dog doesn’t always walk well for new people and he took to her right away. She took the time to come by for a meet and greet and we were really impressed!”
About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I prioritize comfort, accommodations, and overall wellbeing/autonomy of the animal I am taking care of while being a reliable and calming pack leader. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled pups, as well as being a stepping stone for puppies as young as two months old! Old, adolescent or young adult, pups of all age or requests are no feat for me! I also work with cats, so your feline baby is no exception to my care! I am currently employed as Supervisor at a doggy daycare/boarding facility. I also own 5 pets! I have three cats by the names of Sticker (F), Rivers (F) and Pickles (M), an adolescent Chihuahua [mix] named Chloe (F), and an Eastern Box Turtle named Tootie (F)! I am also in training to become a dog trainer! I am almost finished with my certification. Pet care is the absolute forefront of my life. It's 25/8! Coming into a clients home, I like to look for the dogs favorite/chosen safe space and also where their eating place is! Those two places are a great area to gain a new dogs trust. I really enjoy feeding time when it comes to pet care. I am someone who LOVES to eat, so it really satisfying to see a pet enjoy their meal. For a more picky eater, I really enjoy finding a method to encourage a dog to eat whether it be adding pumpkin, bone broth, rim the bowl with peanut butter or yogurt, or even offering my presence so they feel safe -- every breathing creature deserves to start and end their day with a lovely meal. Aside from that, I do enjoy getting to know the dog on their own terms by letting them set the pace. I enjoy going outside and taking pets to areas where we can experience life together so they know they are not alone and are able be free and express themselves however they please! Along with enrichment and exercise services, I am also able to give basic grooming services (bath, nail trim, ear cleaning, breath refresh, anal gland expression, brush-out EXCLUDING de-matting) if you need your pup or feline to be cleaned!
About: I've always been a natural caregiver. I've had pets since I was born, took care of my grandmother in her final years, and I take care of patients of all ages everyday as a healthcare worker. My goal is always to look out for the underdog (pun intended). I work at a dental clinic nearby with nights, weekends, and every other Friday off. My 15 minute commute allows me to pop home if I need to let our pup out. I have plenty of time before and after work for walks and snuggles too! I have a fenced in backyard, a super laid back 9 year old lab mix, and two chill cats who pretty much keep to themselves. We have plenty of extra space for crating if need be! And if for some reason your furry friend needs and entirely secluded area, we can provide that as well.

“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!”

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 😊
Stephen did a great job on his first walk with Ana and Elsa! He was punctual, attentive, and made sure they were comfortable right away. It’s always a bit nerve wracking trusting someone new, but he handled everything with care and professionalism. We’re very happy and look forward to more walks with him!
Shana was a pure delight! Shana walked Brooklyn for me while I was out of town - sometimes once a day and others twice a day. Brooklyn is slow to warm up to new people but she fell in love with Shana nearly immediately because of Shana's gentle and reassuringly manner. Shana is my new favorite Rover sitter for Brooklyn.

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 Woodlea. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Woodlea.

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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodlea. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
