“Cindy is fantastic! She met with me and my dog Ivy today and did an incredible job. Ivy is an 80lb puller, but Cindy handled her beautifully. She’s professional, kind, and seems to be great with large breeds. We only need occasional help and I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future! Since I was on the walk with them, she didn't send any photos but we did communicate about how the walk and interaction went overall.”
“She gives a great service and my dog was happy to go out. I recommend her for walking your dog. She pays attention of your dog's behavior and makes sure it has a nice walk.”
“If you are looking for a seasoned friendly dog walker/sitter look no further! Again our little Maggie's favorite walker! Thank you again for your top notch service & communication!”
About: Follow Us on Instagram: baileys_buddies Our family has over 15 years of experience caring for pets. In addition to dog boarding in our home, I offer house sitting and drop-in visits (for cats and dogs), and dog walking. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet(s). You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and treated like family. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting in your home while continuing my workday. When pets stay in my home, they receive attentive, round-the-clock care with frequent opportunities to go outside. We have a dog door for pets who are comfortable using one, and I’m always happy to take dogs out regularly if they’re not familiar with it. For dog boarding in our home, we have a pet-friendly backyard with plenty of space to roam, play, or relax on our covered patio in the shade. The yard is double-gated, providing a secure and safe environment for your pups to enjoy. When caring for pets in your home, I’m always respectful, attentive, and conscientious about following pet parents’ instructions and safety preferences to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well cared for.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over seven years through the Wag! platform in addition to friends and family’s pups, and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Over time, I’ve discovered that I truly excel with smaller, calmer, and more mellow dogs—and that’s where my focus is for Rover. I take a gentle, attentive approach to dog care, paying close attention to each dog’s comfort level, routine, and preferences. I’m especially mindful of dogs who thrive in quieter, low-stress environments and do best with patience and consistency. Whether it’s relaxed walks, cozy companionship, or simply maintaining their normal routine, my goal is always to create a safe, low-stress experience where dogs feel secure, respected, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is my top priority. My schedule is flexible so I may step away for some dog walks, but I am mindful of my schedule and adjust taking additional walks accordingly.
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and families dogs for years and absolutely love doing so. Everything from overnights in your home to drop ins for walks and potty breaks, your best friend is in good hands My schedule is very flexible and I am available to take care of your best friend at very short notice. I pride myself on being dependable and caring. I appreciate knowing all of the details about your best friend. What is their temperament, do they like long walks or snuggles? Is your cat playful or shy? Every detail helps me take the absolute best care of your best friend.
“Chloe was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! She was exceptionally punctual, communicative, and followed all of our care instructions down to the letter. What we loved most was how happy our dogs were with her - they clearly adored her right away - and she kept us updated with plenty of great photos throughout the walk. We will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog walker!”
About: Hi! I'm new to Rover, however, I've loved animals all my life. And I understand how important it is to ensure your fur baby is cared for ❤️ I have my own pup, Cloud (my goober bear) and fish at home. My family also has cats, so I’m very familiar with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also volunteered at a horse ranch and helped care for chickens, and one day I’d love to have my own little farm + animal sanctuary 🐾 My biggest priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible like you never left. I really take the time to understand what matters most to you and your pet, so I can mirror that same love, energy, and care while you’re away. I’m very active, mindful, and intuitive (I’m also a yoga teacher), which helps me tune into animals and their nonverbal cues. Whether your pet wants playtime and adventures, or calm energy and space, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. I’ll treat your pet like my own with so much love, presence, and care 🐾❤️ With a flexible, part-time schedule as a yoga instructor, I’m able to offer consistent, attentive care and be fully present with your pet. I prioritize quality time, routine, and making sure they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and attentive environment, follow routines closely, and ensure fresh food, water, and care at all times. I’m mindful, reliable, and treat your pet (and home) like my own
About: I have mostly cared for small to medium size dogs who were experiencing some type of physical or chronic aliment. Walks and playtime are a big part of my service. I do not work and am home all day so caring for dogs fits very well in my daily routine. I can follow whatever schedule your dog requires. My priority is for your dog to be happy, healthy and safe. Whether in your home or mine. I will follow whatever schedule your dog requires. My number one priority is for your dog to be safe, happy and healthy. It's important to me that you have piece of mind when leaving your dog in my care.
“Maria has been our dogwalker for a few weeks now. She has been super great and attentive to our dogs needs and follows our instructions well. She has also been super flexible and understanding of our scheduling changes.”
“Yu-Wen was a great dog sitter for our Boston terrier, Henry. He provided timely updates and lots of photos for us. It was clear that he was attentive to Henry. I would recommend him as a dog sitter.”
“Phoenix is gentle and tender with my dog. She is keen about his safety as well. He absolutely loves her. She is very responsive and has clear communication skills.”
About: As an avid animal-lover, I've cared for both dogs and cats professionally and personally for the majority of my life. In my book, every animal is deserving of the highest standard of care, be it young or old, large or small. I have experience matching the energy of young puppies eager to explore the world for the first time alongside the patience and gentleness required to care for their seniors. I'm currently a community college student, so outside of classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and family time Sunday evenings, my availability is open to all of your pet care needs! My #1 priority with any animal is to establish what kind of interaction they enjoy, as every dog or cat is different. If your pet wants constant play while I'm hanging out with them in your home, I'm more than happy to provide, just as much as I am happy to be a chill buddy for those who prefer to relax. Attentiveness is key!
“Sarah did great job walking Goldie. She was helpful throughout all the walks and very good with communicating. She followed all instructions and did the very best she could do to walk my pet.”
About: I’ve been a proud dog owner for over seven years, and I’ve been caring for pups through Rover for nearly four years. Every moment spent with dogs has been incredibly rewarding, and I truly cherish the love, laughter, and silly personalities they bring into my life. I’m currently a proud dog parent to two amazing pups, Luffy and Bei Bei. They’re both perfect in their own goofy little ways, and they’ve taught me that every dog has their own unique personality worth celebrating. When your furry friend stays with me, they become part of the family. I care for every dog in my home as if they were my own — with plenty of love, attention, playtime, belly rubs, and a safe, comfortable environment to relax in. I’d be honored to care for your pup and make sure they feel happy, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 🐾 My daily routine revolves around my dogs. I start the day by waking up at 8 am and taking them to either the back or front yard for their morning potty break. Spending around 30 minutes on basic training follows, reinforcing commands to ensure they stay sharp. In the morning, I focus on work until around noon, when I feed them their first meal. After their meal, it's time for another potty break, and they usually nap for 1 to 2 hours. Once they're up, we embark on a 30 to 45-minute walk. Post-walk, they take another short nap. Around 6 pm, they enjoy their dinner, and I let them out for another potty session. It's amusing to see them stand around, watching me as I prepare dinner. Around 10 pm, I give my boys one more potty break before they settle in for the night. In my pet-sitting service, ensuring the safety, building trust, and creating a comfortable environment for pets are my top priorities. To guarantee their safety, I conduct a thorough assessment of the home environment, identifying and mitigating any potential hazards. I have established routines and preferences, whether it's meal times, play sessions, or specific walking routes. I also ensure a clean and comfortable living space, providing a familiar and stress-free atmosphere for the pets in my home
About: I've cared for my own dog for 13 years, from puppy through senior, so I understand routines, meds, and patience. I'm active, love long walks, and send photos after every visit. My schedule is flexible right now, so I'm available most weekdays and weekends, including mornings, midday walks, and evenings. Last-minute requests are welcome; just send a message and I'll respond quickly. I follow your routine exactly: feeding, meds, and house rules. Dogs stay leashed on walks, doors stay locked, and I check in with photos and updates so you always know your pup is safe.
About: Hi! My name is Tim, and I’ve always had a strong love for dogs and the outdoors. I currently own and care for Kali, my energetic Belgian Malinois/Rottweiler mix. Raising and training a large, high-energy breed has given me hands-on experience with daily exercise, leash handling, basic obedience, socialization, and providing consistent structure and care. Because of Kali’s energy level, I’m comfortable walking active dogs that need both physical exercise and attention. I understand the importance of patience, safety, and reading a dog’s body language to help ensure a positive experience on every walk. I’m reliable, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes. Whether your dog prefers a long adventure, a neighborhood stroll, or extra attention and playtime, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own dog. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away! If dogs could text, mine would probably spend all day asking, “Walk now?” If your pup feels the same way, I’d be happy to help! I’m primarily available on weekdays and love making sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and tail-wagging fun while their owners are away. Weekend availability is sometimes possible too—just ask! 🐾 I treat every dog as if they were my own. Safety and trust come first, and I take pride in creating a positive environment where dogs feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. As an active dog owner with experience handling energetic large breeds, I understand how important exercise, attention, and consistency are. You can count on me to provide safe walks, reliable care, and plenty of love while keeping your dog’s well-being my top priority.
About: Hello All, I have grown up with pets since when I can remember .At my home town we have around 15 cats and 2 dogs.. All were stray who are adopted, neutered and vaccinated. I have rescued numerous animals from road accidents, abuse which includes cats, dogs, birds, squirrels, cows and once cured helped them get adopted to forever homes. I even travelled abroad with animals of different owners to help them get adopted. Additionally, I have worked with multiple animal shelters back in my country and stood up for animal rights and animal cruelty. When I moved to Canada and the US, I took my pets along with me. I am able to administer inhaler to cats as my cat Leo has asthma for over 2 years now and I give it daily. I work from home & therefore available to support you and your fur babies anytime of the day, seven days a week! I am a new driver therefore currently only taking requests within 5 miles and avoiding highways. I have 2 pet cats at my home. I can accommodate additional pets (cats and small dogs) but would prefer to accommodate only 1 pet at a time. Both my cats are neutured/spayed, all vaccinations are updated. One of my cat is very shy and mostly lives in our bedroom. The other one is very social and would love to play with a new member. One of my pet has asthma and needs inhaler twice a day. My cats are always roaming free at home but I like to keep them inside so I ensure my house is always locked.
“Lisette is very sweet, very professional and you could see she is a huge dog lover. Jemma took to her immediately and they happily went for a walk. Thank you Lisette. - sue”

Maria is so wonderful! She's very caring to our dear Yuumi and ensures her safety and well being at all times. She's very trustworthy that we can relax and have peace of mind knowing that Yuumi is in good hands while we're away. We will definitely choose to book her over and over again!
Rachel was fantastic with our enthusiastic hound dog during our last getaway, so we booked her again for dog walks while we were out of town over the long weekend. Unfortunately, our pup developed an unexpected stomach issue the day we left. Rachel was extremely communicative and kindly worked with us as we assessed our dog's health and recovery. She was patient, flexible, and incredibly helpful—we were ultimately able to continue our vacation plans knowing that our dog was in great hands. We look forward to requesting Rachel’s help again during our next trip, and our dog does too!
Great experience! Great communication, very punctual, and I really appreciated that they were able to adjust the time last minute so Kira could get her walk in earlier than expected. Everything went smoothly and Kira was happy when I got back. Definitely would book again!
This is my first time ever hiring dog walkers, and while I was always open to the idea, I was a little hesitant at first. Willow and Tingting have completely exceeded my expectations. They have been amazing with my little girl, Pepper, and always provide thoughtful updates after every walk. Their communication is so detailed that I almost feel like I'm right there with them. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing that Pepper is happy, well cared for, and in such loving hands. I couldn't recommend them more!
My dog and I are so glad we met Judi! She treats Finny as if he were her own and he absolutely loves her! Judi is meticulous about any instructions you have for your pup and your home and, because she has so much experience with dogs, she will let you know if she notices any changes or issues with your fur baby. As a new and somewhat anxious dog mom, I can relax and focus at work knowing Judi is coming over and Finny is safe and having a great time with her on their walks.
I had a great experience working with Avery. She arrived on time, was professional and reliable, and did everything exactly as agreed. Communication was smooth throughout the process, and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and trustworthy dog walker, and I would be happy to work with her again in the future.
