“Kayla made my first experience using Rover great! She made me feel comfortable during our meet & greet the day before services. She was communicative and included plenty of pictures to let me know how things were going. Overall I would definitely book services with her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Sarah 👋 I’m a part-time dog walker and sitter based in the Lakeville/Hawley area. I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a Black Lab Pitbull mix, and I currently help care for my brother’s dogs—a German Shepherd, Boston Terrier mix, and another mixed breed. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Whether your pup needs a relaxing walk, playtime, or a cozy stay at my home, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m reliable, caring, and always focused on keeping your dog safe, happy, and loved 🐶💕 Im currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your furry family! 🐶 From walks to playing indoors your pups will be well taken care of! My home has a calm, cozy lake-house cottage vibe. We’re located in a quiet development on a low-traffic dirt road in the Lakeville/Hawley area. The neighborhood is peaceful, especially in the winter, and while summers can be a bit busier, it remains very walkable and relaxed. We have both a front yard and a backyard with a hill that leads down toward the lake, perfect for fresh air and scenic walks. Inside, the environment is calm and comfortable, with two couches (including a pull-out couch) and beds upstairs where dogs can relax and feel at home. There are no other pets in the home, and I’m home often to provide supervision, attention, and care throughout the day.

“AMAZING! My dogs are picky and they absolutely adore her and look forward to her coming. Im out of town for work and hired her as a dog walker and she has gone ABOVE AND BEYOND! I will 100% be booking her again and referring her to everyone!”

About: Ever since I was little I have had an overwhelming love for all animals. No matter where I go I am constantly pointing out an animal, asking its owner more about them, and stopping to pet them! I have grown up with/had dogs my entire life. I have also been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a teenager. During these years I have cared for many animals with different personalities and needs. My own dogs are definitely quirky and I understand that every dog is different and deserves personalized care. I also provide daily medications for my dogs, so I am very used to following specific routines and comfortable giving pets the extra care they may need. I will always treat your animals with love and patience, while, of course, giving them lots and lots of attention. Animals are family! My daily schedule is flexible because I am currently pursuing my Master’s Degree online, while allows me to build my schoolwork around a consistent routine. Being that I have plenty of flexibility throughout my day, this provides ample time for dog walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve. In every environment, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort. I really enjoy learning about dogs and am constantly researching their behaviors and body language. I believe understanding how a dog communicates is such an important part in taking care of them. I always take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality, energy level, and individual cues so I can better understand how they are feeling and make them comfortable around me. My dogs in my own home are truly part of the family and are very spoiled and pampered. I make sure they receive lots of attention, love, and enrichment, and I take their comfort and happiness very seriously. Caring for my own pets, for my whole life, has taught me how important it is to notice the little things and truly understand animals. When caring for pets in other people’s homes, I follow their routines and instructions closely and treat their home and belongings with the same respect I would my own. I am always mindful of keeping any doors and gates secure, providing plenty of supervision and attention, and making sure each pet gets the exercise, interaction, and care they need. My goal is for every pet I take care of to feel just as loved, comfortable, and well cared for as the animals in my own home.

“Excellent communication!”

“She completely exceeded every expectation. She was incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely took the time to make sure my dog felt loved and comfortable. After the walk, she stayed and spent extra time with my dog simply because she cared. Then I walked into my kitchen after an exhausting day of work and discovered she had washed my dishes—something I never expected and certainly never asked her to do. That simple act of kindness spoke volumes about the kind of person she is. In a world where people often do only what’s required, she went far beyond that. She is kind, hardworking, thoughtful, and has an incredible work ethic. It’s so refreshing to see a young person with this level of integrity, compassion, and initiative. She is truly one of a kind, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She didn’t just care for my dog—she left me believing there are still genuinely exceptional people out there.”

Valerie M.

“Another great visit by Lori. She is mindful of timing the arrival to the dogs schedule. As I have one older dog, she is careful to watch and see if his is up to the usual walk. If she gets through the walk early, she takes time to play with the dogs back at the house. We are grateful to have Lori as a dog sitter/walker.”

I have flexibility in my schedule and can work with you to figure out what works best for your pet.

“Shelby is great! I'm thankful we were able to connect. Things have been very hectic in our world and having someone we can trust walk our very bouncy 80lb puppy has been unbelievably helpful! Shelby asked some good questions about our pup before starting out and I trust her to take good care of Agnes while on their walks. Agnes comes back happy and sleepy everytime - it's a win for everyone!”

About: My Roomate and I have been working with dogs our whole lives. We both work full time at doggy daycares as managers. I also have experienced in working with farm animals as well. We want to eventually open our own doggy daycare and thought that this was the best way to get started. We have experience in bathing, nail trimming, administration of medication and supervising large play groups between 5 to 60 dogs by ourselves. Including dogs of all sizes and temperaments. We have 2 dogs and a cat of our own. We take pride in providing a sweet loving environment for every dog and making sure every dog receives the needs personalized to them. We would love to meet your fur babies and give them a fun time to enjoy their vacation just as much as you enjoy yours. We look forward to hearing from all of you. We are available for drop ins, walks and overnight boarding in our home from Friday nights to Tuesday mornings. During the time that your pet is with us we will be home with them 95% of the time to make sure they get the love and attention that they deserve. We give every dog 24/7 attention and activities that suit every dog based on their own needs. We supervise any group play with dogs to make sure of everyone’s safety.

About: I have 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for animals, with a special love for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have experience caring for small dogs to large breeds, and I’m comfortable providing the individual attention and care each pet needs. Currently I have a very easy, open and flexible schedule. You and yours will be my #1 priority. My routine always works around you, and your furry friend. Depending on what services are needed, I am very open for different service options. I have no problem crating animals if needed/wanted. Treat/feed options as well.
