“Roderick walked my three dogs and handled them with remarkable calm; that’s no small feat when two of them pull. He took every photo and logged every entry in the app, which is genuinely hard to do with three dogs on leash. We’d absolutely use him again and recommend him without hesitation.”

“We had a great experience with Nataliia watching oir dog for a week while we were out of town. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Nataliia pays close attention to detail — from monitoring food and water bowl levels to sending regular picture updates and check-ins throughout the week.”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies and seniors. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as this is my full-time job. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and bathroom breaks, ensuring pets aren’t left alone for long. While I’m not offering overnight house sitting at the moment, I’m happy to provide house sittings during the day or evening. If I have a dog walk or drop-in, I may step out briefly and return. I will always keep my clients informed of my availability so they know they can rely on me. I love shaping my day around the pets I care for—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening routines—so I can keep their comfort and consistency at the heart of everything I do. I take safety and trust very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and house rules. I keep the environment clean, calm, and familiar to reduce stress for the pet.

“Mike has helped walked my dogs on three occasions He’s always on time and we have had great conversations about our dogs and various other topics Looking forward to our future walks 😀”

About: I’ve had pets all my life. I’m very invested in the wellbeing and safety of all pets. I give my pets lots of love and attention and I will make sure to do the same with your pet. They hold such a special place in our heart and therefore are deserving of the best treatment. Every dog or cat I’ve had in my life I’ve made sure to give plenty of exercise and play time. And with your pets I will treat them as one of my own. I have a great love and passion for all animals and am excited to meet your fur babies. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of availability to be there for you and your pets when needed. I will post my schedule on the Rover app. I have two cats and I always make sure they have a clean litter pan and bowl, fresh water and food. I would feel most comfortable walking clients pets on leashes unless there is a fenced in back yard. I found that the invisible fence to not be as effective. One thing I’ll always ask clients before meeting or entering their home is if your pet is comfortable meeting strangers. Another thing I will ask is does your pet have any food allergies. Safety is my number one priority.
