Dog Walkers in Avoca, PA

“Karen and Donald made my first experience on Rover the best it could have been. Not only were they initially quick to reply, but they were quick to set up a meet and greet within 24 hours. They helped me figure out the app to book easily and even gave me a discount for their services. Also, when I needed to cancel last minute, they were nice enough to not charge me. Hoagie loved his time with Karen and Donald and it was the highlight of his day. I couldn’t recommend these two walkers more!”

“Veronica is the kindest, sweetest person on earth 🌎. At first, she kindly rub my furry baby head with gentle touch. My baby instantly feels the positive energy and shake his little tail. Seems like they know when they are in good hands 🙌 Veronica is one of the best dog trainer.”

“The sweetest person I've met and my pup loves he so much couldn't ask for a better person to watch him when I wasn't able to. Very attentive when feeding and walking him at the times needed. Will definitely use her again when needed.”

“Toni is awesome. On our first meet you would tell how caring she was and patient. We have a senior dog who needs special care and right away we knew Toni was the perfect fit. Our old lady is very receptive to her and Toni has gone above and beyond to give her the time and attention she needs.”

“Ann was amazing! Took great care of Sweetie. We will definitely request her services again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life starting with a family pet grooming business. Beyond that I’ve cared for family and friends dogs as needed. My two most common pups I take care of are a golden doodle and cattle dog mix. I work from home full time, which means I can do early morning (done by 8:30 am), lunch time (approx 11-1) and evening visits (after 5:30 pm). On weekends I’m available more time slots. If you’re unsure if I can fit your needs just ask! I have experience doing feeding, potty breaks on a leash, as well as in fenced in yards. The more detail/instructions you provide on care needed the better I can provide that. I am and will continue to be respectful of your dog and your property. If you have any specific questions please let me know.

“Think my dog prefers her over me at this point!”

About: I have a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science from Michigan State University and previously work as a Receptionist for a Veterinary Hospital as I am familiar with companion animal health and nutrition, as well as first aid. I have a Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own that I enjoy staying active with through hiking and teaching her new tricks. I also own a horse and occasionally take care of the horses that are kept in the barn with him by feeding, turning in, blanketing, and cleaning stalls for them. I also enjoy cooking, writing, and lounging around watching Netflix. I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats of many different breeds and personalities from Rottweilers to Shitzu's. From Persians to domestic shorthairs. I have experience with exotics that range from chameleons to rabbits as well. You name it, I’ve probably cared for it! I currently work remote Monday-Friday. Dog walking and pet care would be a great way to break up the mundane part of the week and allow me to get out more. Although I have an unfenced yard for my Australian Shepherd, all dogs will be kept on a leash for potty breaks. They will also get a walk on my lunch break and plenty of toys to play with. If in your home I am sure to spend time with them and make sure they are secure and receive very little disruption to their normal routine.

“Nicole was fantastic! She is very responsive, and she even met with me and my dog prior to his scheduled walk to make sure they were a good fit. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little and I even watched my puppy grow into a senior dog! I have owned 5 dogs in my entire life all different shape and size:) medium small big! I love them all:) I’m available any day, i absolutely love working with animals. When im not working I’m taking care of my fur babies and I love doing that. I’m very good with noticing body language with animals, and when they need food/water. I understand animals need time to get to trust someone! Some don’t but it’s okay lol:>

About: I have plenty experience with caring for large and small breeds. Have had many dogs in my family. Volunteered at shelters. I also attended dog grooming school. I am an operating room RN by profession for 28 years. Caring for pets is a passion of mine. Available for walks, pet sitting, & vacation stays. I am available days, evenings, & nights. I am willing to care for more than one dog at a time. My schedule is very flexible. You can have confidence knowing your fur baby will be safe and loved while you are away. I will offer you as many daily updates as you need so you are comfortable.

About: I’ve owned countless animal over the years including fish, reptiles, frog, hamsters, rabbits, cats, and dogs. My neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, give medicine, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m a stay at home mom with an open and flexible schedule. My schedule allows me to follow your already established schedule for your pets while you are away. I’m currently unable to spend the night in your home. I am able to come to your home to provide uninterrupted care for your pets. I’m also able to watch your pets in my home. I have a fenced in back yard, 6ft vinyl privacy, for safe outside play. My family is also very active and able to provide multiple walks per day if that is what your pet like (weather pending for safety reasons).

About: ​Hi, I’m Tamera! I run Happy Howls Daycare and Walkies, where I bring over 11 years of professional pet care experience to every visit. ​One of my favorite aspects of this work is puppy care and foundational training. I understand the patience and consistency required for young dogs—from reinforcing potty schedules to working on basic leash manners and socialization. Whether you have a high-energy pup or a senior dog who needs a gentle pace, I tailor my care to their specific life stage. ​You’ll notice my last Rover review was in 2017; since then, I have been operating as a self-employed pet care provider for private clients. I’m returning to Rover now to meet new families and share my decade-plus of expertise with your furry friends. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and dedicated to making sure every "howl" is a happy one! As a professional pet care provider, my daily and weekly schedule is designed entirely around the needs of my furry clients. Because I manage Happy Howls Daycare and Walkies as my primary focus, I am able to offer a high level of flexibility and dedicated attention that fits into a structured routine: ​Morning Energy (7:00 AM – 10:00 AM): My day starts early with morning 'potty breaks' and active walks. This is the prime time for puppies who are working on their training and need consistent outdoor reinforcement first thing in the morning. ​Mid-Day Adventures (11:00 AM – 3:00 PM): This block is dedicated to my core walking routes and daycare guests. I schedule midday visits to ensure dogs get their much-needed exercise and socialization while their owners are at work. ​Afternoon Wind-Down (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM): I focus on late-afternoon walks and feeding schedules. For daycare pups, this is a time for calm play and getting them ready for their evening transition back home. ​Seven-Day Availability: While my busiest days are Monday through Friday, I am also available for weekend 'walkies' and daycare by request. This ensures that whether it’s a standard work week or a busy weekend, your pet has a consistent and familiar face to look forward to. ​Throughout the day, I maintain a very organized schedule. I make sure to leave plenty of time between visits so I am never rushed, allowing me to give each dog my full attention, work on training cues, and send plenty of photo updates to you. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their second home. I focus on creating a calm, structured environment where they can feel secure while you’re away." ​Safety First: I maintain a 'paws-on-the-floor' policy for greetings to keep excitement levels manageable, especially for puppies in training. My home is fully pet-proofed to ensure a hazard-free stay. ​Routine & Structure: I mirror your dog's home routine as closely as possible—including specific feeding times, nap schedules, and any 'house rules' you have in place. ​Supervised Socialization: If multiple dogs are present, interactions are always 100% supervised. I use my experience to read body language and ensure every pup feels comfortable and respected. ​Cleanliness: I maintain high sanitation standards to keep everyone healthy and happy. ​In Your Home: Walkies & Drop-Ins ​"My goal for home visits is to provide high-quality care while leaving your home exactly as I found it—with the addition of a very happy dog!" ​Secure Entry & Exit: I am extremely diligent with home security. I double-check that all doors and gates are locked and that security systems are reset upon my departure. ​The Walk Experience: Safety is my priority on 'walkies.' I use sturdy leashes, avoid high-traffic or 'unpredictable' areas, and keep a close eye on the pavement temperature and weather conditions. ​Puppy/Senior Care: For clients at your home, I customize the visit. For puppies, this includes cleaning any accidents and reinforcing potty training; for seniors, it may involve gentle mobility assistance or administering medication. ​Detailed Check-ins: You will receive a Rover card after every visit with a summary of the walk, 'business' handled, and a few high-quality photos of your pet’s adventures.

“Great Communication! Personable! Gave Micah the exercise/ potty breaks/ attention he needed.”
