“Elly has been the best! She does recurring weekly walks for my pup, Winston. Always on time, leaves updates and lots of pictures. My pup is not the most active/doesn’t always want to walk but she always makes sure he gets out to pee even when he is being stubborn. Going back into the office has been a breeze due to Elly - thank you!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since I was 3 years old and love taking care of animals. I’ve taken care of family friends’ pets when they’ve gone out of town when I was in high school and college as well. I’m a nurse and I’m looking to hang out with some pets on my off days! My schedule varies from week to week, so one time bookings or a flexible schedule would be best for me! I won’t be boarding other pets because I have two cats of my own, but I can follow schedules required for your pet in your home and ensure their best safety.
“Our Ollie absolutely loves Daniel! From the moment he walked in for the meet and greet they hit it off great! Daniel is very punctual, dependable and communicative. I absolutely trust him with my leash temperamental dog and looking forward to more lunch time adventures for them.”
“Eva is amazing!! She did such a great job with my new puppy. She took her for a walk, played with her, and was very thorough in following her care instructions. Would highly recommend!”
“I have already left a review for Iryna, but she continues to go above and beyond for my doggy. She is the absolute best pet sitter/dog Walker you can find. Anyone would be lucky to have her!❤️🐶”
“Dominique had great communication with me about our dog Lincoln. He’s got a positive and professional demeanor. Our dog is a big boy (125 lbs ) and Dominique handled him with ease. Lincoln instantly connected with Dominique, not something he always does with strangers. Dominique most definitely has a way with dogs. His interaction and care was as if Lincoln was his own pet. Dominique’s communication with me was great up to meeting and during the interaction with our boy. Very amicable person. I will use Dominque again.”
“My regular walker suddenly became unavailable but luckily Grace accepted my booking. She is friendly, reliable and most importantly, very good to my little buddy. I will definitely keep her in mind for the future.”
About: Back in my college days, I worked in a dog daycare with dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes. Before Rover, I mostly pet sat for my friends and family. In addition, I have 14 of experience caring for my own dogs. I understand the struggles that come with leaving your pet with a stranger so please rest assured that your fur baby will be well taken care of. I will always treat your fur baby with lots of love and kindness and adhere to your instructions to the best of my ability. I currently work a 9-5 at a hospital. I have the flexibility to work from home 3x a week. In addition, I am available most weekends and holidays. It is always helpful to have written instructions on how to care for your pet. For example, activities they enjoy most, things they absolutely hate, or undesirable behaviors to look for. Let me know their daily routines so I can do my best to make they feel like they’re with family and not just some stranger.
“Lillian continues to be not only dependable and caring but when my poor old dog was in her last days and my other dog was gross sick she went above and beyond to care for them. I am so appreciative.”
“Mallory was absolutely wonderful with Howie! She took him on a great walk and made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. Plus she took great photos! It’s clear Mallory truly cares about the dogs she walks. I’ll definitely be booking again! Thank you!”
“Catarina has been absolutely amazing with our nervous dog, Pumpkin. She's patient, intuitive, and incredibly communicative with us about his walks and needs. Thank you!!”
“Lexi was great! This was our first Rover experience and Lexi took the time to come do a meet and greet prior to our first walk, which was great so she could meet our dog and chat through his quirks. :) She was very communicative, timely and left great notes and pics. Looking forward to booking with Lexi again soon!”
About: I have a GSD, Rocky, who is my whole world. I have cared for dogs my whole life. I am a lawyer who works from home and am looking for something to get me out of the house during the day! I have experience with all size dogs, old dogs, reactive dogs, and giving medicine. I work from home and set my own hours, so, I can be available at any time Monday-Friday! I have a car and am able to walk as far as needed. Finding reliable pet care can be so daunting! I am someone who loves all animals and believes animals are family. I can walk, run, or simply check in on your dog whenever needed.
About: I have been the preferred pet care contact for friends, family, and neighbors for over 15 years, and I’m excited to extend my pet family! I love sitting with animals to understand their personalities so that I can give quality care on an individual basis. I have a seasonal job, which means that my off time can be spent giving exceptional care to your furry family. As a morning person, I’m excited to keep your pet on their routine. Safety is always my number one, for you, your pet, and me. Whether you have a couple bullet points to give me guidelines, or a full binder of info, be assured that I will do my best to follow it all! I’m very attuned to animal body language and understand that we’re all working together to make this a positive experience for your pet!
“Shereen is awesome! I love her approach to meeting, she really demonstrates genuine care for the family and my fur babies. Prompt and unmatched attention to detail. I appreciate Shereen and would recommend her over and over again.”
