About: I have worked in the doggy daycare Field for 2 years and have gained so much information and knowledge on taking care of your babies. I have walked dogs, fed them on time, gave them their medication on time, played with them, cleaned up after them and so much more!! I do work at Amazon but my job is very flexible especially if you let me know a week or two in advance. I work nights so after 12pm I’m always available until 6 on the week days on the weekend you guys have my undivided attention to stop by and see your babies. But like I said if you let me know one or two weeks in advance I can most definitely stay over night or longer than usual I can always take days off of work to attend your fur babies! I only attend to your babies at your homes it’s a safe environment for them so they won’t be freaked out by a new environment. When I’m there I will always ask for a schedule on how you want our day to go so I make sure you and your pup have an amazing experience with me. I also love to train dogs so anything you guys want me to train them I will be happy to work on it at every visit!!

“Valerie has been a fantastic dog walker for my pug, Steve. Communication has been super easy, she always leaves great notes (feedback and pictures) and brings lots of positive energy. Steve has been a very happy boy to have another friend to play with. Very highly recommended!”

About: I have taken care of pets for the past 13 years. Including feeding, walking, bathing them and cleaning their rooms of any poop or vomit. I know the critical and non critical signs of stress and have plenty of experience with administrating medications as needed. I’ve taken care of pets that have seizures as well. I’ve taken care of all type of pets from hamsters and birds to dogs and cats. I do work with boarding as well so I will always have time to look after and care for your pets. My schedule is flexible and this fits right into my career field that I am currently doing. I have a fence around my background which allows for free roaming. I also have two extra rooms that are free that I can use for boarding if need be as well. I have no problem sending pictures and keeping pet parents updated and informed of the care of their pets while in my care. I also allow video calls for pet parents that would like to ensure the safety of their pets.

About: I have always been a dog and animal lover. I used to watch my neighbors’ dogs when they would go on vacation. I always had my own dog growing up- first a yellow lab mix and then an adorable little beagle. I have my own dog who is 9, Frankie, & I love to care for her. I have many years of experience volunteering at animal shelters and socializing dogs. When I lived in Seattle, I cared for a friend’s dog when she would be out of town on the weekends for work. I am available this summer to help care for your dogs because I’ll be studying for the bar (!) every day, so help give me a break from studying. 🤪 My sweet girl is pretty low energy and loves to hang out in the back yard, so she is pretty low maintenance, but of course I love to just hang out with her and care for her. I’m excited to hear back and have the opportunity to interact with some great dogs! I have experience caring for puppies, high-energy dogs, low-energy dogs, on-leash reactive dogs, senior dogs, and many breeds and sizes. If this is your first booking on Rover, feel free to use my code for $20 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/cassiw30987 I am available most days all day because I’ll just be studying all day this summer. I am available on the weekends and short notice as well! I will update my availability for when I’m not free though. I will respect what you want me to do based on what your dog knows. Essentially I will follow the routine for however you prefer the walk or drop in visit to go!

About: I’ve always had great experiences of taking care of pets since childhood. From taking care of my own, pet sitting for friends while they’re out of town as well as working at a doggy daycare for a year. I have experience with both cats & dogs of various sizes and ages. I’m employed full time and unable to accept request Tuesday-Thursday. My availability is Friday-Monday for house sitting and Saturday & Sunday for dog walking and check ins. I cannot board pets at my home since I share my living space at this time, however, I’m opening to visit/stay at the client’s home if needed.

“Valerie is the best! My puppy loved her. She’s very experienced, caring and responsible. Lucy is training to be a therapy dog and Valerie did an excellent job using the specific commands Lucy is being taught. Also, Lucy is a challenge at five months and 50 pounds. Valerie had no problem, controlling her in a loving way.”

About: I have been caring for both cats and dogs my entire life, personally and professionally. This includes disabled + senior care! I do my best to match the energy & demeanor of each animal; if they are extra active & playful, I’m prepared to keep up! If they are more timid & anxious, I’m very gentle, patient, & soft spoken. I love animals a lot & I’m a natural when it comes to meeting their needs. I have an office job 3 days a week as well as a 4-year old but my time is shared and very flexible. I’m free by 4pm every single day and weekends are open. I have a 4 bedroom house with 2 cats & some gates so I generally keep them separated. My backyard is fenced in as well

About: I possess extensive training that equips me to handle various situations, including managing aggressive behavior in animals. My experience ensures that I can navigate challenges effectively and provide a safe environment for both pets and their owners. Additionally, my knowledge extends to administering medication, allowing me to cater to pets with specific health needs. I love taking funny pictures of them too lol I’m currently the owner of the sweetest kitten, so it is already a part of my daily routine to care for and love my furry friend. I am very gentle, loving, patient, cautious and kind. I can carefully but easily follow specific instructions for special medical procedures if that’s ever needed.

“Came on very short notice to take our dog for a walk. Excellent communication and flexibility! Did a true 30 min walk as requested. Definitely recommend”

“Mary is great with my pitty!! She always did what I needed done and found the time to squeeze him in even in busy days! She does have a bad ankle so due to that we had to switch over so if u have a bigger stronger dog who pulls or is reactive, may be best to find someone else. But otherwise she did the job and walked him even with that ankle :)! She helped us find other options as well and always had tips to help when issues were brought up. She seems to really care about the animals and what they need.”

Brenna K.

“Hi highly recommend Greg! I was fortunate enough to not only book him last minute so my pup could get in a walk, but also able to do so on New Years Eve. My pup was obviously quite fond of him because he didn't want to stop playing with Greg once he brought him back home from the walk, and he continued to bring over one toy after the next to show him. I look forward to booking him again in the near future.”

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I love my pets and I’m always into making sure they’re okay. My family usually calls me to watch the babies, feed and bathe them from time to time. I work part time and go to school online but i can also take breaks where i can come take care of pets. I’m more available during the afternoon but I’m free during the day as well. We have a fence that protects dogs from other animals. I go outside with the dogs to make sure that they are well protected and watched over. I have my own fur baby of my own as well.

About: I will Ensure pets receive correct nutrition for the day, including water, sorting dry / wet food, medications, etc. Dogs will get exercise and receive the appropriate amount of activity and bathroom breaks. Making time for multiple things multitasking , and juggle activities throughout the week. I make sure to have my whole week in order for new opportunities I will make a safe space for them and make sure they are comfortable in that area with all the things they need in front of them

About: I've raised dogs as small and stubborn as Shitzu's and as big and smart as German Shepherds. I love dogs and will treat your fur baby better than many. I work for myself most of the time so when you need me I can be there except if I have a prior engagement or client. I have a fenced in yard if dogs are with me at my home and if at yours I'll be extra careful to care for your fur baby.

About: Hi! I'm David. I grew up in Michigan surrounded by dogs and farm animals. Labrador Retrievers were the family favorite, however, I rescued a Basset Hound Mix during the pandemic. One of my college jobs was working at a doggy daycare center. I was quickly promoted to manager and ended up rolling out a marketing plan for the business. It was a blast! I live in Metro Detroit (Oak Park) and am currently "funemployed" which means I have all the time in the world to take care of your furry companions! I take pride in my ability to be patient, gentle, responsible, and fun with all kinds of dogs, sizes, and ages. I have vast and diverse experience taking care of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, horses, and birds. During college, I volunteered at various humane societies and frequently dog sat for friends and relatives. I was also instrumental in co-training a Golden Retriever to be a service dog. That was a highly rewarding experience. My approach to dog care is to start with the owner and get to know the dog through their eyes. I then channel that love and devotion to esteemed care, ensuring that walks are done frequently, food is out at a responsible time, and that enough attention is spent with the dog. I'm an outdoors guy and walk whenever I get the chance, so rest assured that your dog will get a healthy amount of outside time. If you've made it this far and like what you've read, let's schedule a meet-and-greet! I take my pup for walks at least four times a day, and let her roam free in my fenced in backyard. I provide attention and care throughout the day! I'm very respectful not only of my client's pets, but also their homes. I'm very trustworthy and neat/tidy. I've dog sat in many homes both for the day and overnight. I treat other people's property as if it were my own.

“Ashley is very reliable and flexible when needed. She is accommodating with our constant change of schedule. Not only that but she is great with our dogs. If you’re looking for a trusted dog walker Ashley is the one.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by and taking care of dogs since I was young. I have experience with all ages, giving medications and with handling reactive dogs. I am currently working full time (4-5 days) as a server/bartender. My shifts are short(4-5hrs) and usually in the late morning or early evening so I always have part of my day to dedicate to your pet. I do not offer boarding services but I am more than happy to visit your pet and make sure they are comfortable, fed and walked if needed. I enjoy interacting with animals and assessing their body language to meet their needs.
