“We’re so grateful for Abigail! This was our first time using Rover, and it was a last-minute request after I missed scheduling doggy daycare. She responded quickly, was open to receiving additional information, checked in when she arrived, and communicated clearly throughout the visit. I truly appreciated her professionalism and reliability. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve had fur babies my entire life. I’ve always loved animals and making sure they’re healthy and happy is a passion for me…! Let’s Connect I do a lot of my work from home and have my schedule pretty comfortable to spend time with fur babies. If I know ahead of time, I can accommodate. I have a nice sized apartment. I now have a backyard! My apartment complex has a large dog park, soccer field, walking trail and there’s even a dog park less than 2 minutes away from my house 🏡 nothing but fun and care here…
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 6. I absolutely adore animals and their innocence. I am reliable and sweet to them at all times! I am currently working a part time job and my hours fluctuate, but I still have a flexible schedule to dog walk either when I get off or before work! I have a shih tzu at home who is a very calm dog. I feed her twice a day with blood pressure meds. She might already be tired of how much love I show her every second of the day!
“Naomi has walked Oliver in the past. She was available and willing to continue this summer if I needed her. She came through as a last minute need. I would definitely rebook with her. Naomi is a keeper!!”
About: I have been a dog owner for much of my life. But, after the last dog passed, I figured I would open my heart to look after dogs of all types and sizes, when their owners are away. I have had a 6-week-old Newfie mix and I am used to caring for puppies. I also looked after a Collie into her senior years. I have worked with dogs with severe allergies and medical needs as well. And, it would be my joy to love and care for your fur baby when you are away. I work from home and as a result am available to walk, feed, play-with, and take your dog outside whenever they need to do so. I have a step-free home which is perfect for larger dogs and puppies, and a large yard where I can walk with them as well as access to several walking trails
About: I have grown up with so many animals and LOVE them all!!! I am raising a few babies of my own, 3 little cats, and they mean the world to me. I am a super easy going person and love animals so I would love to help you take care of yours! I currently work part-time for a local school in the evenings, but mornings I am completely free and will work around your schedule for sure. I am extremely flexible on my hours! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, needs, and temperament. Before services begin, I will gather detailed information from the owner, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, behavioral traits, and emergency contacts.
“Amber was amazing and my 3 dogs and 2 cats love her! She walked them all around our 5 acres and gave them plenty of love! She's very caring and reliable! Glad I found her!”
About: *Update: In regards to the new weekly feature, I can only do so in YOUR home. I am a cat person but I also love dogs. I'm an equal opportunist lol . I've taken care of cats, dogs, even hamsters, fish and plants for neighbors, friends, family and later on for clients through apps like these. I started taking care of pets at age 10 which was around the same time I got my cat, Allegra. I loved her like my own child. We would even take walks together. She lived a good 14 years but that of course was still too short for me. She was a family member to me, not just a cat. She was even kind to the random strays I would bring home and be forced to return lol. I also grew up with my dog Angel (pictured). She lived for 14 years too. Her last few years were rough and she was on a lot of medications. I have experience administering those. We had to put her down and that was such a hard decision. Another family member lost. I'm still proud that they both lived long lives. I've had other cats short term since then. I adopted a black cat, Maleficent Marie, in February 2023 and shes my new fur baby. I started using Rover in 2018 when it first started but deactivated because I lived in areas that didn't use the app at all. I can't wait to meet your pet and I'll make them a priority like they're family! I'm currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to drop in or even stay with your furry family members. My home is not open to animals at the moment and I can sincerely vouch that I will treat your home respectfully like mine or anyone else's. I'm also fully vaccinated and take Covid seriously. I don't mind wearing a mask for long hours or at all and will abide by any covid restrictions you personally have. My goal is to build a trusting relationship and to have more repeat clientele!
About: I have always had many pets in my house growing up! I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, and more. My current pets include my dog Max, my cat Ruby, and my hamster, Hamlet. I worked at a dog day care/ boarding center for most of 2023. I take joy in caring for my animals and their health and happiness is most important to me. I have petsit for my family members for years as well. I am currently a Senior at Georgia Gwinnett College, but I still plenty of time for caring for animals. I am usually still available on every day of the week. I have plenty of experience with crating dogs and can do it quite easily as I used to work at a dog kennel. I have bathed dogs and cats as well so I can do that if needed. I walk both my own and others’ dogs every day and know how to deal with complications that may arise.
About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience as a devoted dog owner, I bring genuine love and deep expertise to every pup in my care. My journey began with Riley, my beloved companion who blessed my life for years before crossing the Rainbow Bridge. Riley taught me patience, attentiveness, and the unique joy that comes from truly bonding with a dog. Today, that love continues with Kenobi, my energetic and adorable 3.5-year-old, who keeps my dog-care skills sharp every single day. Kenobi and I are always on the move — whether it's our regular long walks, hitting the trails for a hike, or joining our local dog walking group where pups can socialize and explore together. An active dog is a happy dog, and I make sure every dog in my care gets the exercise and enrichment they deserve. My reputation speaks for itself — family and friends have trusted me time and again to care for their beloved pups, knowing they'll be in the most loving and capable hands. That trusted word-of-mouth is the foundation of everything I do. While I'd love nothing more than to expand my fur family, the timing isn't quite right for a second dog — so dog sitting is the perfect solution! It lets me share my home, my heart, and my experience with more dogs who deserve top-notch care. When your dog stays with me, they're not just being watched — they're being welcomed into a home that truly understands and adores dogs. Your pup will be in experienced, caring hands every step of the way. Services Offered: 🐾 Dog Walking 🏠 Boarding 🧩 Enrichment Activities I work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to center my day around your pup's needs. Whether it's regular potty breaks, feeding times, nap schedules, or simply cuddle time on the couch, I am fully present and attentive throughout the day. Your dog will never feel lonely or overlooked — they will always have loving company and dedicated care from morning to night! I have one 3.5-year-old Cavapoo named Kenobi who would love to keep your pup company! Crating, playpen setting or free roam can be offered depending on your dog's temperament and individual needs. And if your dog loves the outdoors, my large yard provides plenty of space to run, explore, and play!
“Catecha really stepped in for us while in a bind due to last minute work trips and my overnight work schedule. Diesel loves walks, so I know he was excited for a morning one. Thanks again!”
About: I have had dogs ever since I was a kid. I also worked at dog daycare/boarding places. I will take really great care of yours dogs. I am available anytime during the week and weekend. I can stay overnight with your pets in your house also. Just send me a message. I have 3 friendly and loving dogs. I have a fenced backyard. And a crate if they need to be crated. I won’t be doing boarding or anything at my house though.
“Caroline was timely and communicated with me about the walk and how my pupper was doing. She made sure my dog’s water bowl was replenished after their walk. Would recommend Caroline!”
About: Need to be gone? No worries! I am a lifelong animal lover who grew up with dogs and horses. Over the years I have cared for friends' dogs, cats, horses, goats, rabbits, and turtles while they were away. I will treat your animals as if they were my own, providing them with care and companionship until you return. Recently retired from the University of Georgia, my highly flexible schedule gives you the peace of mind to be gone. When you need me, I'll be there...with plenty of hugs for the furry members of your family. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide loving, trustworthy care in the familiar surroundings of your home, ensuring a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. With a commitment to reliability and compassion, I create a safe and nurturing environment where your furry family members feel secure, happy, and well-cared for in your absence.

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 Youth. 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 Youth.

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 Youth. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
