“Madi is always accommodating when she's able to be. She's cheerful, friendly, attentive, responsive and our dog adores her. We are so lucky to have found her. She truly is amazing!! You will be pleased with her care for your animal and for you”

“Bridget did an amazing job taking care of our old dog and two cats over new years break. It was such a relief to not have to take our old dog to the kennel while we were gone - to know he was in a familiar environment with a sweet helper made it easy to relax while we were on vacation.”

“Cass has been communicative and reliable since the beginning. She’s great with our puppy and anxious dog. They are walked by her daily, making it stress free to be at work. Highly recommend!”


“Ari is great with our two big dogs. They can be a lot to handle on the leash. Ari not only manages them but makes it look easy. Sends great pics and really loves the dogs. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages - from playful puppies to wise seniors, so I understand each stage’s unique needs. Whether it’s training, gentle care, or keeping them active and happy, I make sure every dog feels loved and safe. I work full-time from home, so I have plenty of time to care for your pups. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and can give them attention, walks, and cuddles whenever they need. I provide a safe and calm environment for pets. My home has a fully fenced yard, and there are no children or other pets, so your furry friend can play and relax freely and safely.
About: “I’ve had my own dog for 7 years and absolutely love being around animals! I’m the one friends and family call when they need someone to walk, feed, or snuggle their pets. I treat every pet like my own — with love, patience, and care.” “I work early mornings, which gives me plenty of free time during the day and evenings to care for pets. I enjoy walks, playtime, and giving pets attention and structure throughout the day. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company, I make sure each pet gets the care and love they deserve.” “In my home, pets are treated like family! I have a safe and cozy space for them to relax, plus a yard for playtime and exercise. I follow their feeding and walk routines closely and provide plenty of cuddles, attention, and care. Your pet will feel comfortable, happy, and loved while staying in my home.”
About: I've been a pet lover since I was a kid. I started with frogs, lizards and snakes, and graduated to cats and dogs. Until I was able to have dogs of my own, I spent over 10 years pet-sitting for friends and family, volunteering in animal shelters, and have even worked in 2 seperate doggy daycares. My MO is always long walks and lots of attention. I have 2 dogs of my own, a cumulative 17 years of pet raising experience. I have experience caring for sick pets and administering medication both orally and subcutaneously. I've had my pups since they were young and would consider them very well trained. If you're looking to work on certain behaviors, I can absolutely work on that during their stay. I have a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood for long walks, and for longer stays, expect your dog to enjoy a nice hike! I mostly work from home, so your dog(s) would never be alone and would have access to my fully fenced backyard whenever they want. During the week, I can do a long walk during my lunch break, and another after work. Weekends I tend to go hiking, so if your pup enjoys nature, they will for sure have a great time. My yard is fully fenced, and I have 2 friendly dogs. Safety is paramount, so dogs would be supervised while in the yard together. If your dog requires a crate, I have both a plastic and soft sided kennel for indoors.
“Helena has been our steadfast furry friend walker for years and she has been fabulous! Communicative, flexible, kind and more. Helena comes highly recommended by my family!”

“She is so awesome with my dogs. Always communicating if anything is going on. My dogs love her so much. We bumped into her at the dog park and they were so excited. I’m so lucky she walks my dogs for me.”

“Maria is especially good at coaxing our dog out on walks when the pup doesn't want to go. We also appreciate that she submits Rover cards for each visit and leaves the house exactly as she found it. We feel so much better about being at work all day knowing Maria is spending time with our dog.”

“We love working with Maggie! She has been so good with our very large puppy and so communicative with us. We really appreciate her notes, questions, and observations of our puppy after walks. Highly recommend!”

About: I work from home, so I’m available to give your pets the attention they deserve throughout the day. I have years of experience caring for cats and understand their unique personalities and needs. While I’ve spent more time with cats, I’m quickly gaining hands-on dog experience thanks to friends who trust me to dog-sit their pups. I’ve even rescued and returned lost dogs in my neighborhood—proof that I take every animal’s safety and well-being seriously. Whether your pet loves long walks, cozy naps, or quiet companionship, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. Your dogs and cats will be in caring, reliable hands. I work from home and can easily flex my schedule to accommodate your pet's needs. My schedule is M-Th, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. I do go into the office on the occasional Thursday, but that is also flexible. I have a yard for pups to play around in. Living close to the Capitol building, I have many walking l9cations available to me. I've been watching dog training videos and learning how dogs interact with each other and other humans. My home is cozy and clean. I have space for smaller pets + a basement if they need more room to run around inside.
About: I’ve dedicated my career to working with animals, from wildlife in the field to looking after pets at home. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Animal Science, which gave me a strong foundation in animal behavior, health, and care. Combined with my hands-on experience, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My Experience: -Background in animal biology and real-world care, providing both knowledge and compassion. -Experience with senior pets and those needing special care, including administering medications. -Worked in a greyhound rescue facility, training retired and injured greyhounds to adjust to normal pet lives in hopes of becoming adopted. -Skilled with energetic puppies who need patience, play, and training reinforcement. -Reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative—I treat every pet as if they were my own. -I have a soft spot for chubby pets and would love to take your chubster on a walk toward better health and happiness! Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or extra snuggles, I provide the same level of care and attention that gives pet parents peace of mind. I am currently available for walks and drop-in visits Monday through Friday, preferably during the day. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my daily routine—I love getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals. I make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while sticking to their normal routine, so they feel happy and comfortable when you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep them comfortable by following their usual routine. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get outside for potty breaks or walks, and enjoy plenty of playtime and affection. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs—whether that means extra patience with puppies, gentle care for seniors, or lots of snuggles for cuddle bugs. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Wade has been amazing with my dog Wednesday!! She absolutely loves him and enjoys her time with him. I can tell that he truly does care and love dogs.

“Kacie was a true treasure, she was always been on time, totally reliable. Being a medical traveler with random shifts it isn’t easy to find someone that is willing to do different hours and days. The dogs love her and I will continue using her services as long as I am in this area.”

Briarwood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Madison was SO great with our slightly anxious dog Griffy! She showed up on time, was responsive to messages, sent plenty of pictures and updates and best of all, our dog loved her and came home tired and happy while I was out of town. We'll be booking Madison again without a second thought!

Sophie is such a natural --at caring for dogs as well as people. When I had a sudden death in my family, she stepped up to cover every day I needed, with kind words, extra help and collaboration when we required it. She is now close friends with my poodle, and a warm, reliable friend to me. My dog learns everyday from Sophia!
