“Nadia is fantastic! Picked up my dog walk job very last minute early in the morning after I hurt my back and couldn’t get my 80 pound puppy out for his morning walk… She went above and beyond with the walk, the play, and a little training too! And our pup thoroughly enjoyed himself! We will definitely be calling Nadia again! 🤗”

“Super grateful for the wonderful walks and attention Logan gave my dog - she was super happy coming back from walks and I knew she was in safe hands while I was away”

“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”

“Azul loves Rachel she walks at her pace and Rachel is very responsible. Azul seems happy when she comes back home and when Rachel comes to pick her up for her walk Azul is very happy.”

“Thomas has been a godsend with a very busy Aussie pup and my older gal. They're at the door as soon as they hear his car turn the corner and are returned happy and ready for a nap although the puppy would follow him home if given a choice.”


“Josie was wonderful - very responsive, friendly, great with our pup and completely flexible with my changing schedule, which I totally appreciated. We will definitely use her for walks again.”

About: Hello, I was raised with every pet from dogs to snakes. While I am new using Rover, I have done pet sitting all throughout my adult life. I love all animals and hope to spend time with yours! I have taken care of cats my whole life but have spent the past few years in school for law and showing dogs professionally. This comes with experience in whelping litters, emergency and primary vet care, transport, nutrition, conditioning/exercise, training, cleaning and general care for dogs. I also have fostered for many years in both California and Arizona which comes with experience in temperament evaluation and training, medications, quarantining pets when necessary and working with very young and very old animals. While I have a lot of experience in taking care of pets, I respect that everyone has a right to do it differently, and keep an open mind in how to care for pets. I always follow directions from the owner even if they conflict with how I take care of my own pets as long as it is not directly harming the pet. I am currently on a year long break between undergraduate and law school, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet(s) and drop by as needed. I always prioritize the pet's happiness and wellbeing. While I love interacting with cats, I am also totally understanding if there is a cat that wants space. I also am aware from prior pet sitting experience that sometimes a pet can behave differently when their owners are not home, so I try to take every precaution when it comes to their safety. I am aware of the foods and plants that are harmful as well as what a cat can safely play with. I also know how to properly clean and sanitize messes that a pet can make such as urine, feces and vomit. I have worked with raw pet food so am well versed in how to minimize contamination. I also have strict sanitation procedures from my dog showing days that I always follow between handling different pets. I also always carry with me a basic vet care bag and am able to treat light burns, small cuts and flush out eyes if need be. In the case however that any medical assistance may be necessary, I always check with the owner beforehand with what they want me to do.
About: I love making pets feel special through walks, playtime, and photo shoots! In addition to my beloved family dog (age 6) I’ve been helping to care for neighbors’ pets while they’re away for most of my life. I have just moved and am currently working from home with a flexible schedule. I’m confident that we will be able to find a suitable time especially as the weather cools. I have a car and am happy to make home visits to take your fur baby on a walk or just keep them company. I have recently discovered the joy of homemade purées for lick mats and other enrichment toys (keeping dietary restrictions in mind, I would never feed your pet anything that isn’t authorized). Because my apartment is on the smaller side, I’m better set up to visit you. However, if you have a cat or a small dog (apartment rules) I am happy to host them for a short stay.
About: Since the age of 5 I have cared for just about every type of pet; from your typical dog and cat to the more unique pet like rats, ferrets, and guinea pigs, and even back yard animals such as chickens or tortoises. If you have it then I can confidently and comfortably care for it, including any “high maintenance” pets or ones with any special needs. My only exception is reptiles or any other pet that requires live feeding. Sitting is my full time job, so I will be with your pets in your home for the majority of the time of the sit. I’ll only need to leave once per day to return to my apartment to feed my bearded dragon. Your pets will be my priority while they’re in my care, and will receive all of my attention and affection in your absence. I’m very much a homebody, so I won’t be leaving the house except to go back to my apartment to feed my pet. You can expect to receive many pictures from me of your babies being sweet and adorable, to help you when you’re missing them.
“Mikayla is very reliable and professional. Luke has enjoyed his long walks. It usually takes a few walks for him to relax with a new person walking him but he seems to have taken a quick liking to Mikayla!”

“Stephanie was very responsive and did a great job of updating me during and after my dog’s walks. She was super kind and friendly and does so well with dogs, Quill loved her! I would definitely book with her again.”

“Sasha was such a wonderful dog walker and sitter for my dog Pepper! She was always on time, very communicative, and made sure to keep me updated on Pepper whenever she was in her care. I never had to worry about Pepper when Sasha was taking care of her. I will definitely be using her again and I can’t recommend her enough to take care of your dog!”

“LauraAnne was our regular dog walker and dog sitter for nearly a year, and took great care of our dog when we're our of town. She did an amazing job, and our dog absolutely loves her. She's responsible, responsive and could always rely on her.”

About: I have always had a heart for animals. Growing up on a ranch, I was surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and cows, which instilled in me a deep love and understanding of animals from a young age. I have had my pug, Hermione, for 13 wonderful years, and I also care for my three cats: Batman (5 months old), Kitten (5 years old), and Bobby (4 years old). I am kind, empathetic, and have a natural ability to connect with animals. My ranch upbringing taught me invaluable skills in animal care, and my personal experience with both young and senior pets ensures I can cater to their specific needs. Whether it’s walking/excersing puppies or providing special care for senior animals, I treat every pet like they are part of my family. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home and set my own schedule. This flexibility allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for and looking after your furry friends, ensuring they receive the attention and care they need throughout the day. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a safe and loving environment for each animal. I am very observant and take the time to fully connect with each pet as if they were my own. I ensure they are comfortable, happy, and well-cared-for by following their routines, providing plenty of playtime, and giving them the attention they need. I strive to make every pet feel loved and secure while their owners are away.

“Angelique was wonderful with my Zoey. She sent me reports and pictures so that I was assured my furr baby was being well loved on her walks. She was flexible about scheduling too. I would definitely recommend her!”

Alvernon Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Maggie has been amazing. We were in a desperate situation to find a walker for my mom’s dog, Goldie, when my mom got sick. Maggie was able to jump right in and get started right away. She is great with Goldie. Always on time, very reliable, posts lots of pictures and goes above and beyond, by feeding Goldie when she finishes her walk each morning. Maggie has been an amazing resource for us.
Oliver is great! His availability on Tuesdays and Thursdays works perfectly with my schedule at work. Very reliable and easy going, a critical thinker and able to anticipate a pet's needs. Both my late senior (RIP) and young foster took to him easily. Will book again!

Parker took excellent care of Baloo during drop-in visits. He did a great job of following my list of pretty extensive instructions, and spent extra time keeping my anxious boy company. I received daily photos of a happy dog! I will not hesitate to book with Parker and Alysa again.

My dog loves Brittany and I love her too. She communicates well. She let me know my dog had an upset stomach - I had no idea he was feeling bad! Thanks to her we were able to adjust his food till he felt better. Every time we leave town we use Brittany to do daily walks. (relatives keep dog but don’t walk him- he needs his exercise!)

Mizuki was absolutely incredible! Punctual and professional took my baby for his walk and even had some pictures to share with me. My pup came back super happy and definitely tired out, what a wonderful experience for the both of us. I cannot wait for her to take him on another walk!
