“Chase is the best dog walker Ive ever had! His love of animals is obvious. He’s personable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond what is expected of him. I thank my ‘lucky stars’ I found him!”
“Chris was great! My dog Woody was very happy with his experience and so was I. Communication was easy, and he made sure to give my dog lots of love and attention. Thanks Chris!”
“Rebecca was extremely communicative and reliable with walking my 9 month old puppy! She provided exercise and engagement to tire out my little guy- when I checked his crate camera 20 minutes after the booking ended, he was sound asleep. Highly reccomend!”

About: Like many other families, I grew up with dogs. But I really stepped into a caretaker role when I adopted my dog, Todd! He’s 11 and I’ve had him for 10 years! From training him as a pup, to now transitioning into senior care, my experience and the with him has taught me so much. I just moved to the city so my availability is completely open! I understand how important it is for a pet to be on a schedule for care, so I’m really flexible and understanding! Every pet has their own unique needs and behaviors. I have a lot of experience with dogs (and some cats), I feel confident that with clear communication, I can give your beloved pet the love and care they need!
“Amanda is always very communicative and patient with Lucy, who isn’t always cooperative especially when it’s hot outside. Would definitely recommend her for daily walks!!!”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and for some reason they seem to love me! Even ones that friends have said take a while to warm up to somebody new, I was able to be friendly with them almost instantly! Pets are so precious and I understand that it is not easy to trust someone to look after such a beloved family member, but I will do my best to make sure that your pet is well taken care of! I am able to work from home, so if you need somebody to come over and keep your pets company, I can do that! I can make sure they're fed and exercised, and take them out to potty when they need to! I treat all pets with the care and respect that they deserve! I will make sure to listen to whatever instructions are laid out for me in caring for your pet.
“Maja was great walking my dog, Molly. She was always prompt and responded quickly to messages. She was also flexible with a last-minute time change. I would definitely recommend Maja and ask her to walk my dog again next time!”
“Tetiana has been walking my dog for a while now and she is the best dog walker you will find on this app (trust me I’ve gone through my share fare with all the moves). She truly cares about my dog and she’s great at communicating and being flexible. You won’t find a better Rover than her!”
“Wamuyu is very kind and friendly. My dog didn’t hesitate to go with her on their first walk together. I’ve already booked several more walks over the next couple of weeks. I’m looking forward to having her come back!”
“Vanessa has walked my two pups several times now and has been consistently great—reliable, responsive, and attentive to my 2 dogs' needs. My pups are always excited to see her, and she takes great care of them on walks, sending pictures and making sure they’re comfortable post-walk. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
About: Hi! I have volunteered at shelters to walk dogs and care for my family and friends animals while there away. I have created such great connections because of Rover and have met so many great pets! I always like to be thorough, ask about anything to expect, if i can contact and keep parent updated, etc. My schedule changes weekly and can be flexible-I am a server currently. I can always make time for your furry friend. Let’s discuss details :) Asking lots of questions, being very clear on expectations, meeting your pet before booking, having clear boundaries, and overall ensuring it’s like you never left.
