“Jonathan R. has been a totally responsible dog walker, and I can’t recommend him highly enough to you! He is professional and knows so much about the different breeds, and, most importantly, dogs like him! He arrived on time and kept me updated on my dog’s progress. He easily accepted the changes I requested in our schedule. Please seriously consider hiring Jonathan!”

“Something about Michelle….she always gave really detailed feedback and made me feel like she loved my pup like her own. She made me really comfortable will def use her next summer and highly recommend.”

About: I have grown up always having multiple dogs and cats in my house that I have shared responsibility for. I currently have an amazing terrier at home named Mimsi and two cats! I have been very trustworthy for my neighborhood dogs over the years, I would bring them around the neighborhood for their daily walks and provide baths and other care services that needed to be completed! I have plenty of experience with senior dogs and im great with all ages! Although I am new to pet care through rover I hope you will trust me to take care of your furry family member!! I am currently commuting to school everyday from 9-3! Other than that my weekday and weekends are pretty flexible and i’m more than willing to communicate with you so we can set up a schedule that works best for both of us!!! I would love to bring your dogs for long walks around your neighborhood or give them play time during my drop-in visits! If you need a cat to be looked after I would love to stop in and fulfill all their needs as well! I am an honest and trustworthy worker and I look forward to taking care of your pets as if they were my own!
“Kathy has been so amazing with my dog. She absolutely loves when Kathy comes to take her on her mid day walk and it’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands! Kathy provides great updates and adorable pictures. I highly recommend!”
About: Aside from my 3 personal pets, I have raised 4 Seeing Eye dogs and pet sat for over a dozen families. I have experience in dog first aid, potty training, and reactive dogs. Socialization is important and I have the knowledge on how to do so safely for each individual dog. All breeds of dogs are welcome. I work from home and am available 24/7. I love being able to take the dogs on either long walks or a quick potty break. I have a fenced in yard and a crate available for any size dog. I am aware of dog safe foods and carry Benadryl and hydrogen peroxide for emergencies.
“Jackie is awesome!! She asked questions ahead of time to make sure our dog Pablo would be comfortable and she took him for a long walk. Pablo clearly loves her and felt comfortable with her which is all I can ask! We will 100% use Jackie again!!!”

About: If you ask anyone that knows me they'll tell you two things - I love coffee and DOGS! I've had lots of experience owning my own dogs, overnight dog sitting, and spending time caring for my friends dogs. I enjoy being active and would love to have a four-legged walking or running partner! I will be attentive and give your dog a lot of affection and care. I live in a house with a yard and have plenty of time to spend playing. I am responsible and trustworthy and will give your dog safe and loving care. I am available most times and days of the week and on the weekends and would love to fill that time with walk/runs, games of fetch, and dog snuggles! I have a flexible schedule and high availability during the week and weekends. I can be available mornings, midday, or evenings for walks or drop in visits. Safety is very important to me and I will make sure to care for your dog as if they were my own! I will be gentle and attentive to your dog and make sure I am giving them quality care.
About: I can care for puppies, and give special tender-loving care to senior or disabled dogs. I am skilled at reinforcing training and giving snuggles. Whether your pet needs just a check-in or you'll be out of town for up to week, I will make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and well cared for. My dogs have all been special needs, from my last dog: Rowan, Mini Aussie pup that we got from a little farm who had anxiety, to my first dog Abby who had hip dysplasia. All dogs are welcome in my care. I have a strong arm (even if I don't look like it) and will always give the best doggie care I'm able to! I'm currently taking some time off, and I have very open availability. All requests need to be made 4-5 days in advance, I do not serve areas outside of Saratoga City Limits. I believe that the security and safety both of your home and pet come first. If you have special requests please make them known to me. I don't think anyone's home should be treated any differently than the animal that deserves treasuring and nurturing. Your dog will be treated with respect and kindness, their special needs heeded, and their boundaries observed & kept in mind.
