“Jordan was phenomenal with our dog! From the initial meet-and-greet to the end of the sit, she was thoroughly professional, dependable, and communicative. She followed all feeding and care instructions to the letter and constantly went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt comfortable, loved, and engaged. The updates and photos she sent gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and could not recommend Jordan highly enough.

About: Hi! I’m Ally, an animal lover with professional animal care experience ranging from pet boarding facilities to the Oakland Zoo. My approach is calm, attentive, patient, and individualized to each animal. Animals have always been a central part of my life. I became vegetarian as a child because of my love for animals, and that value continues to guide both my personal and professional life today. Professionally, I previously worked at a pet boarding facility where I handled client communication, maintained veterinary and care records, administered medications, monitored feeding and intake, and provided daily hands-on animal care. I also worked as a Zookeeper Aide at the Oakland Zoo, where I helped prepare specialized diets and support daily animal care operations in a fast-paced environment. I’m currently completing a Master’s degree in Environmental Health Sciences at Columbia University, so I’m especially detail-oriented, responsible, communicative, and reliable. What You Can Expect From Me: -Reliability, reliability, reliability! ☺️ -Regular communication, updates, and photos -Calm, patient handling style -Attention to detailed feeding and care instructions -Lots of affection, play, and individualized attention Previous Experience: -Zookeeper Aide at Oakland Zoo -Behavioral Health worker at a California primate center -Animal care work at research centers -Wildlife rehabilitation and sanctuary volunteer experience -Pet sitting experience with a wide range of pet breeds and personalities -Pet First Aid and CPR certified I'm currently working remotely on my capstone project to finish my Master's degree, which means my schedule is quite flexible to care for your fur babies! I do have my own cat so I need to take his own care into account when considering bookings. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment for every pet in their own home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, routines, and household rules while paying close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall wellbeing. I understand that every animal has a different comfort level and personality, so I approach each pet with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their space and routine.

“Courtney is very professional, thoughtful and gentle, with my energetic Golden Retriever. She helped us in an over heat week. She planned routes with shade, and kept a very close eye to the dog during the walks. We will definitely book again!”

“Maxim did a great job with Paris and Cupcake. They were a bit frightened on the meet and greet and barked, but Maxim was patient and gained their trust. He took them for a walk every visit and fed them homemade dog food. He played with them, giving them extra play time. I would definitely use Maxim again.”

About: 🔆Welcome to a small part of my life I started by taking care of my neighbors’ pets as a hobby, which helped me discover how much I enjoy this work. Later, I found the Rover app, where I saw a great opportunity to care for and meet dogs of different breeds. Currently, I have two years of experience providing love and care to pets as if they were part of my family. I deeply love animals and have always felt a special connection with them. I carry my dog, Cejas, who passed away, in my heart forever, and her memory inspires me to provide the best care to the pets that come into my home. I’m passionate about caring for pets with special needs, whether it’s administering medications or providing appropriate therapies for their physical and mental well-being. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments, so I easily adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Looking for a quiet and exclusive stay for your pet?

I only accept one family at a time, ensuring a stress free and distraction free environment. I’m home all the time, so your pet will never be alone. Perfect for sensitive pets or those who simply need rest and tranquility. I speak Spanish, I am currently studying English📒 I’m patient, responsible, organized, flexible, and, above all, trustworthy. I love walking and exploring the outdoors, which makes walks with your furry friends one of my favorite moments of the day. They also help me by providing exercise and breaking me out of my daily routine. I truly enjoy sharing my life with the company of pets. I offer a warm, cozy, and safe environment where your pet will feel loved and protected. I’ll keep you informed with updates through the Rover card, as well as photos and videos during their stay, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. Your pets can roam freely throughout the house, and during the night, when it’s time to sleep, they are monitored through my camera. 🐱It will be a pleasure! I’m available seven days a week to host, care for, and walk your pets. I’m also open to handling last-minute requests, as long as I don’t have prior bookings.

I love taking long walks, and I’ll always send you updates through Rover cards. Your pet will be safe and comfortable in a warm and welcoming environment. In my home, I’ve created a secure, risk-free space where your furry friend can feel right at home. I always stay in the same space as the pet, providing constant attention and supervision to ensure their well-being at all times. My neighborhood is gated and pet-friendly, with plenty of green areas, making walks perfect and super safe for both large and small pets. For my pet boarding service, whether for the day or overnight, I prioritize hygiene and a great experience. Before each reservation, my home is thoroughly disinfected, vacuumed, and mopped.

“Trina is dependable and very sweet to our dog who isn’t the easiest to take on walks due to her reactiveness around other dogs.”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs through both volunteer fostering and dog sitting for friends and family. I fostered 16 dogs total through Coppers Dream Rescue, gaining experience with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and individual care needs. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker with Best Friends Animal Society and Westside German Shepherd Rescue. As a result, I’ve developed a patient, attentive, and responsible approach to dog care. My goal is to ensure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re in my care. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate dog care needs throughout the day. I can work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their routine. I prefer to walk dogs in quiet, low-traffic neighborhood routes. Safety is my highest priority, and I want to ensure a dog feels secure in whatever environment they are in.

“Excellent communication and attention to the weather to avoid overheating Ceara's paws. Ceara was calm, happy and well exercised when we returned. G. was pleasant and professional.”

“Chris was an amazing dog walker--for me and my large reactive pitbull! He was so diligent in giving me updates and sending me adorable photos of my dog. He made sure that my dog was always well-hydrated, happy, and comfortable. I can't thank him enough for his kindness, responsiveness, and helpfulness.”

Sophie A.

“We have two dogs who can be a bit reactive when walked by leash. My wife and I were instructed by professional dog trainers on how to keep them calm and under control when they see another dog. John picked up the training methods quickly and had both of our guys exhibiting their best behavior. John is a natural, and our dogs adore him. We are extremely pleased with his calmness and attention. Five stars!”

Roger M.

“They were punctual, reliable, and provided personalized care, taking time to understand my dog's needs and routines. The regular updates and adorable photos were a nice touch, offering peace of mind. In short, if you want a dog walker who treats your pup like family,Keith is the way to go. I highly recommend their services.”

About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting for around 2 years. Doing pack walks with six to eight dogs. I have a lot of experience with big dogs and small dogs. I have a dog walking business that is new. I do pick ups and drop offs according to your schedule so if you need dog walking, dog play group or boarding, im here to help. I have a fenced off back yard with plenty of room for more than one dog for boarding. My dog Berlin always loves the attention and will keep your pet with plenty of company. If you need your dog crated we can do that too.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up rescuing and caring for cats and dogs, and my family has always shared our home with pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and neighbours, and I’ve also trained our family dog in basic commands. My calm and gentle nature helps me connect easily with cats—earning their trust and providing comfort—while my active side makes me a great match for energetic dogs. I love hiking, long walks, and outdoor play, giving dogs both exercise and mental stimulation. No matter the pet, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and understood, always respecting their unique personalities and needs. I work remotely with a team based in Europe, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the day to provide pets with exercise, attention, and care. I provide pet care both in my home and in the pet parent’s home, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow each pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions closely. Whenever possible, I also like to meet pets beforehand to get to know their personality, habits, and needs.

About: I grew up in a multiple pet family; taking care of the cats, ducks and family dog. Over the last couple decades I have rescued animals including my cat 20 years ago. I have also enjoyed caring for my friends and family animals while away, and any stray wildlife that comes my way too:) Right now I am working to start a resin company, and have a very flexible schedule. My care schedule for my animals is structured but flexible, so we can work with many different demands, my cat communicates surprisingly well :) I follow whatever instructions are given before and during visits, care and safety are of the utmost importance. If there is ever a question, I do really love communication so I'm asking and my ears are always perked!

About: My passion for pets and commitment to their well-being, have helped me acquire invaluable experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies who can’t get enough playtime to seniors who prefer a cozy spot by the window, I tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs. I understand the importance of routine, which is why I prioritize punctual feeding and walking schedules. For many dogs, these moments are the highlights of their day, and I strive to make every experience enjoyable and fulfilling. Whether it’s hiking for the adventurous or gentle leash walks for those who like to take it easy, I’m dedicated to ensuring their happiness and comfort during their time apart from their owners. Additionally, I'm attentive to the emotional needs of pets who require extra affection and support. I take pride in creating a nurturing environment that helps ease their anxiety and keeps them engaged and content while their family is away. With my pet care experience, you can trust that your furry family members will receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! My schedule allows me to be flexible enough to adapt to your pets schedule! Thursday nights are when I'm on a tighter schedule but I'm glad to talk this over! I make sure to make their time away from you as close to their daily routine as possible. I make sure to know their likes and dislike to make them feel as safe and comfortable as possible. There are some dogs that do not feel good in loud and busy areas. So I make sure to go on walk them in quieter places. Also, if I am house sitting some prefer to co-sleep and I am comfortable doing so. Every pet care experience is catered to your and your pets liking :)
