“Caleb took such great care of our dog! He did walk visits and drop-in visits and was on time for all visits and very responsive. We will definitely use Caleb again in the future!”

“Amanda is the best dog walker I’ve ever had and she is absolutely amazing with my boys! I have been using her on a weekly basis for now and I couldn’t imagine using anyone else.”

“Tanya goes above & beyond for my dogs, it’s so wonderful knowing they’re in great care! I have polar opposite dogs, an older, tiny yorkie with lots of needs, and a younger, energetic lab who’s very extra. She handles both of them amazingly in the same visits & I’m always thrilled to book with her again. Definitely reach out to her, you won’t regret it!”
“Alessandra is great dog walker. She understands my dog very well and takes the time to give him extra love and not just walk him. The updates are very thorough and she communicates so well with everything that’s going on. I’m really glad that I was able to find a really trustworthy and patient person like Alessandra.”

“Kate was a lifesaver I was having a busy day and the pup was being crazy and needed a walk. Kate came right over and walked her and she was chill the rest of the morning! Thank you Kate!!!”

“Jessica was great with our pup Pete. I really appreciated her daily communication and photos. Pete was very pleased with heer as well. Will definitely call on Jessica again!.”

About: I have always had a home full of animals which I have loved and cared for my entire life. You should choose me if you want a warm and loving person to take care of your babies. I am a student and I have a flexible summer for the time being. During the summer I am free any day of the week, morning to night. I will always make sure to keep your pet happy and healthy, safe and comfortable. It's not an easy an thing to leave your heart at home when you have to leave. I understand that anxiety, but it is my goal to ease that worry by reassuring you that your pet is always safe and happy.

About: I grew up taking care of my family dog that we had for 13 wonderful years. I have been dog sitting for many years and have also volunteered at animal shelters in the past. My partner and I own a home in Hillsborough, where we have a large, fenced-in yard for our own pups, Reggie and Echo, to enjoy. Reggie is excitable and has a loud voice, and though he doesn't always know how to contain that energy, he's a lovebug who just wants to play with anyone and everyone. We've had a number of dogs here to stay with us, including a 12-week-old puppy, and he loves them all! We recently got him a little sister, Echo. After a 2-hour adjustment period, they were fast friends and snuggling as they napped! She's also a sweetheart and is working on learning good manners. Reggie and Echo spend most of their time traipsing around the back yard and napping in the sun. I work from home, so your dog can get plenty of supervised playtime! I can also send plenty of pictures during your little one's stay if you'd like! Let me care for your sweet pup when you are away from home! I work from home full time, so your dog and mine will have plenty of supervised care and time to play and explore the backyard! We live on an acre, and the back half is completely fenced in with a 5 ft fence to keep all pups safe and contained!
“Rosa was amazing watching Moose. She walked her three times a day for several days and administered her food and medication without any issues. Rosa sent a photo and update with every walk, which gave us so much peace of mind. Moose was clearly well cared for, and we would highly recommend Rosa and book her again.”

About: I have learned about puppy and dog care through the adoption of two of my own, and have cared for numerous others over the years. I have raised puppies, cared for puppies, and cared for dogs of all ages and sizes. Our 4 year old little dog also loves meeting new friends if your dog is social. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon! I am a full-time petsitter, pet and human mom with lots of availability! If I'm not caring for my human child or my pets or someone else's, I am available, and looking forward to caring for your fur babies! I am available for housesits and have lots of local experience. I can take your dogs on walks, feed, bathe, brush and snuggle them. Our pets are up to date on vaccinations and flee/tick medication and prefer that yours are as well!
About: Call me Joe. My wife and I love animals. We’ve cared for pets our entire life—dogs, cats, birds, and even a chameleon. Originally from Japan, we're skilled at training pets through hands-on experience. We're especially patient with puppies and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. A naturally tidy and organized person, we keep your home and pets happy, safe, and cared for. We share responsibilities together. I usually handle the dog walks, while my wife not only helps me, but she also brings comfort to pets. I currently work part-time as a gig worker and have flexible hours. I’d like to use my free time to care for pets, making my days more meaningful while helping pet owners. My wife always helps me with pet care. We don’t currently have pets in our home, so visiting pets get my full attention. We live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a dog park on the property, providing a safe and welcoming environment for walks and play.
“We worked with Kaitlyn for our first time using Rover. We had a last minute request with only one hour of notice. She was quick to respond and on time, and took very good care of our German Shepherd during a 30 minute walk in our neighborhood. She was an absolute lifesaver and I would recommend her to anyone else looking for pet care!”

“Sophie is outstanding. She is always willing to help, even in a pinch. She always snaps photos of their walks and im convinced she’s able to get Shelby to smile. The quality that I most appreciate is that she is very reliable.Thank you Sophie!”
