“Jackie is wonderful. She not only took my little guy for a walk but cleaned up his sleeping area when he wasn’t feeling well. She even took on this task last minute. I’m so appreciative of her!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 20 I've had my own pets and I have experience caring for dogs of all different sizes and breeds. Family members have put trust in me to take care of their pets. I’m a lover of all pets, young and old. We can do so many fun things I am sure I will pamper your pooch. I live in a house with a fenced yard and friendly neighbors! I live in a house with a fenced backyard. Many of my neighbors own dogs and you can see them walking their dogs in the neighborhood. My home is clean, fun and lovable.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels—including senior pups—I provide loving, reliable, and attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with administering medications, accommodating special routines, and offering the extra patience and gentleness that older dogs often need. Whether it’s slow strolls, cozy cuddles, or keeping up with daily care, I treat every dog like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while keeping your pet happy, safe, and comfortable in a calm, familiar environment. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day—whether it’s regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just companionship. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I’m able to accommodate feeding times, medications, and any special care needs with ease. Because I plan my day around the pets I care for, you can trust they’ll get the time, love, and attention they deserve. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can relax and feel secure. We have a fully fenced yard for plenty of outdoor play and potty breaks, and pets are always supervised. Our home is kid-friendly, calm, and welcoming—perfect for dogs who enjoy gentle companionship. I have one sweet, well-behaved female beagle who gets along great with other dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and walking needs. Whether your pup loves playtime or prefers quiet cuddles, I ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.
“Cam was an excellent dog walker! He followed all of the instructions I left for him, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed their time with him. I truly appreciated his reliability and attention to detail. I will definitely be using Cam again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”

About: Animals have been a constant part of my life — I grew up with both dogs and cats, and I’ve continued caring for them throughout my adult life. Because of that, I understand the little things that make each pet unique: the routines they rely on, the quirks that make them who they are, and the kind of attention that helps them feel safe and loved. When I’m walking your dog or stopping in for a visit, I bring that same lifelong experience and patience. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies who need structure to senior pets who move at a slower pace. I’m also attentive to shy or anxious pets and take the time to earn their trust. What sets me apart is how personally I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet. I treat your animals the way I treat my own — with consistency, kindness, and genuine care. My goal is simple: when you’re away, your pet still feels at home. As an educator and high school football coach, I’m used to balancing responsibilities, managing time well, and showing up consistently for the people who depend on me. That same reliability carries over into the way I care for pets. With summer approaching, my schedule becomes even more flexible, giving me plenty of time for regular walks, drop‑in visits, and consistent routines for your pets. Even during the school year, my afternoons, evenings, and weekends are open, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care naturally into my week. Because I’ve always had dogs and cats of my own — both growing up and now in my adult life — caring for animals is already part of my daily rhythm. Whether it’s early‑morning walks, midday check‑ins, or evening visits, I’m able to give each pet the attention, structure, and comfort they’re used to. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress‑free as possible. I know how much comfort pets get from being in their own space, so I make sure everything I do matches the rhythm they’re used to. I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedules, walk times, medications, crate routines, and any little quirks that matter to your dog or cat. I take the time to learn their personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and slow to warm up, or somewhere in between. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and structure so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Because I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, both growing up and now as an adult, I’m comfortable handling all kinds of needs: puppy energy, senior care, anxious pets, or those who just want someone to sit nearby and keep them company. I also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Paola is everything you are looking for in a dog walker. Great communication, very attentive to my dogs needs, and very friendly. I hope she is always available when I need someone to take care of Coco”

About: Animal care has always been second hand nature to me. I have had dogs as little as a snow white Maltese Puddle and a brown and black yorkie to something as big a red nose Pitbull and a German Sheperd Pharaoh Hound mix. I have 4 years of on the job animal care experience from when I was employed with Cobb County Police Department (Animal Control Unit) and an abundance of personal experience. Currently I work as a Security Enforcement Agent and have been thinking about animal care again. I hope to be able to be able to assist you and your animal soon. Currently I work fulltime as a Security Enforcement Agent and would like to get into animal care again without leaving my current job fully. I am technically a contractor so adjusting and or changes to my schedules are normal for me and won't be hard to do. The way I care for my dog is probably not gonna be the same for you. But my dog sleeps with me, is allowed on the couch and usually gets multiple walks on my off days and longer walks on work days. I let her free feed, one scoop in the morning that she is free to snack on throughout the day. If its finished before 5/6pm she gets a half scoop. I also give her daily vitamins, dental bones and treats. Lots of love and spoiling. But when it comes to in the clients home there rules for the pet(s) are my rules for the pet(s)

“Meaghan is awesome! She's great with dogs and was very good at accommodating my schedule. She has a personality that just fits someone who is great with animals. She is timely and I loved the pic she sent after the walk.”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give to every pet in my care. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member, and I do my best to make both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every animal like they are my own, paying close attention to their routine, personality, and individual needs. I am comfortable caring for pets in all stages of life, from young pets who need extra guidance, consistency, and play, to senior pets who may need a gentler approach, more patience, and a little extra support. I can help reinforce routines, provide loving companionship, and make sure your pet feels calm and secure while you are away. More than anything, I want pets to feel loved and at ease in my care. I am dependable, attentive, and kind, and I always want owners to have peace of mind knowing their pet is being cared for with real heart. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I only work two days a week at the hospital, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to provide dependable care. On my days off, I have the time and energy to focus on walks, drop in visits, playtime, feedings, and giving pets the attention they need. I enjoy having a structured routine, so making time for pet care comes naturally to me. I understand how important consistency is for animals, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Spending time with pets is something I truly enjoy, so it feels like a rewarding part of my week. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or in their own home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel safe, secure, and comfortable while in my care. I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walk routines, medication instructions, and any special requests closely. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can relax, play, and receive plenty of attention. I make sure the space is safe and supervised so they feel at ease. In their own home, I know pets are often most comfortable in a familiar space, so I do everything I can to keep their normal routine consistent. I treat every client’s home with respect, keep things tidy, and make sure their pet feels loved and cared for while their family is away. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel confident, comfortable, and at peace.

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routines. I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family, providing plenty of attention, patience, exercise, and affection. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including playful puppies, active dogs who need extra exercise, and senior pets who need a little more patience and gentle care. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel happy and relaxed while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my dedication to giving each pet individual attention. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, feeding routines, medication reminders, or simply keeping a dog company, I make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care for the pets I look after. Since I create my own schedule, I’m able to accommodate different routines, including regular walks, drop-in visits, and extended stays. Having a flexible work schedule means I can spend quality time with pets throughout the day, provide consistent care, and make sure they don’t feel lonely while their owners are away. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual needs and maintain their normal routines as much as possible. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication instructions, and any special preferences they may have. I always make sure pets have a clean, safe space, plenty of attention, and supervision while they’re in my care. I’m respectful of every client’s home and treat it with the same care I would want someone to show mine. My goal is to give pets a positive experience while giving owners peace of mind knowing their animals are being cared for by someone dependable and attentive.
About: I have had pets since day one. I have three dogs of my own ranging in ages from 6-17. I have had all of my dogs since they were puppies and helped my dad train them. I love spending time outdoors and being active. As a full-time teacher, I am available after 4 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. During school breaks (holidays and summer vacation) my schedule is much more flexible, allowing for open availability throughout the day. I strive to accommodate my clients’ needs whenever possible and am happy to discuss scheduling options to ensure the best care for your pets. I am a very respectable person, when invited to your home, your property will be treated with the upmost respect. I’m good at following directions/instructions. Your furry friend’s health and safety is my number one concern.
About: As a dedicated pet caregiver, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that leaving your furry friend with someone else requires trust, which is why I focus on providing reliable care, plenty of attention, and regular updates for peace of mind. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to making each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure your pet receives personalized care every step of the way. I also have no problems with commuting as I have my own car, so distance isn’t an issue for me. Right now I’m working freelance for myself so my schedule is open caring for your fur baby. I’m up for discussing a personalized regular walk or sit schedule as well! Right now I’m moving from an apartment back into a home (I’ll be done with that moving process by mid July) with adequate yard space to run around for exercise. I would make sure they would get plenty of outside and play time before bedtime with adequate potty breaks as well. For pet sitting in your home; I’d take on care as closely as I could to how you do things on the regular!

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yorkville. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise

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.
