“Jannelle was so sweet with my 5-month-old puppy. My dog is a little nervous right now since she is so new, but Jannelle still got her out and about! Also, thank you so much for responding on such late notice.”

“We loved Kalani soooooo much! Our dog, Maro, literally refused to switch to another walker after spending a few weeks with her while our regular walker was away, he adores her that much — we’re hoping he will reconsider now that she’s moving out of our area! She is amazing with dogs, super attentive and caring, and with pet parents she is perfectly professional, communicative, and reliable. 13/10 would recommend for any pet-related service!”

“Javien has been great. My Evie was shy at first but he got her to warm up to him quickly, because he just has that personality. He has been accommodating when plans have changed and Evie and I hope to keep using him for future walks. I'm glad I found him when I did because he's popular!”

About: I have a genuine love and care for different animals. When time permits itself, I do want to open up a nonprofit for animals who have been abandoned. I care for all animals not just dogs and cats 💕 I currently work on an intermittent schedule, which causes me to travel at the last minute. Sometimes I am gone from a few weeks to a few months, with little to no notice. I care for everyone’s animals as if they were my very own. From puppies/kittens to senior animals. If your animal is in need of medication and special treatment, I am definitely able and capable of administering medication CPR, etc. I look forward to meeting my new furry friends. 🐶 🐈‍⬛ 🐦 🐖 I currently can take care of other pets after I get off work and on the weekends, I do however take my dog out several times a day for potty breaks and walks and give her treats when she does a good job I make sure that I clean up after them if they have accidents and I also make sure that they are on a leash at all times and I will feed. I feed the animals on a twice a day schedule however whatever the client likes to do I will honor that.

About: All dogs need a friend who will run with them, chase sticks and get a little dirty. I’m here to make the city feel more like a jungle and less like concrete. I grew up in VA, working on a farm and playing with all kinds of pets, so I’m not afraid of big dogs. I’m a former D1 athletes, and I work in education, with a background in child and animal care so high energy pets are no problem. I’ve pet sat exotic breeds of dogs for cash during undergrad at Georgetown; I’m also comfortable with high need pets! I’m down to clown but I’ll always put your pets safety first! As a data guy I’m big on little details and enjoy it following instructions. I make it into a game. I also live with a fellow rover person!

About: I come from a family of dog lovers and have raised my cairn terrier since she was two months old and she’s now 12!! I’ve worked with big dogs, small dogs, old and young. I currently train my dog in emotional and psychiatric care as she is training to be a service animal. I am currently working a part-time job and do online school so don’t worry about me leaving your pets high and dry!! I have two pets of my own so I know how important attention is. I’m available whenever you need me I live in a dog friendly neighborhood where all the dogs (and dog owners) know each other. I have a large yard and live only a couple minutes away from a park. I can easily crate your pet if necessary and have a super shy dog that won’t bother yours at all. We have plenty of things to keep your pet entertained including a splash pad and plenty of toys

My pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for every time, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I could tell Russell was very engaging and genuinely enjoys what he does. I’m extremely grateful for his help and would absolutely look forward to working with him again.”

“Jada and Naz walked our two poodle mixes at 10pm every night while my husband was out of town for 18 nights. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive, but they were able to work with her kindly and effectively. They had very good communication and were good-spirited even when it was raining.”

About: I have extensive experience in caring for both cats and dogs. I have a rescue Bombay cat named Mojo, who unfortunately has FIC (Feline Idiopathic Cystitis). However, this has made me proficient in administering medication to animals and monitoring them closely! Additionally, I grew up with many Pit Bulls in my childhood home. This has given me the ability to handle larger animals effectively. I actively volunteer at local shelters in my free time as well. I aim to create safe yet homely environments to ensure optimal well-being for every furry friend under my care. I am currently on summer break from college, granting me open availability. With no constraints on my schedule, I can provide round-the-clock attention and care to furry companions. Whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or late-night cuddles, I am fully committed to catering to the individual needs and preferences of each animal under my care. I provide a fenced backyard for safe playtime and a separate room for restful sleep. With the presence of my friendly cat, Mojo, companionship and socialization are encouraged. Animals are free to roam, including my room if comfortable.

About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life and have always loved caring for animals of all kinds. I’ve helped take care of family pets through walks, overnight stays, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Professionally, I’ve cared for puppies and kittens, focusing on their safety, attention, and daily needs. I also have experience helping with potty training and creating positive routines for younger pets. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family and always make sure they get the care, patience, and affection they deserve. I’m currently fun-employed so I will have all the time to spend with your loved pet! Giving them all the attention and making sure they feel safe and happy! I live in an apartment building, that is pet friendly! I currently have no pets of my own, so they will get my undivided attention! We live right by the water with quiet areas for walking, also opposite a park, excellent for a run around! For my anxious fur friends I’m very patient and we can take our time, happy to adjust walks and needs as they fit!
