“Stella loved going for walks with Mike and always came back worn out lol which is exactly what I wanted. Mike was punctual, kind, and always treated Stella with care. Would 100% recommend him.”
“Liam is wonderful. Our dog has some anxiety around new people, and Liam figured out ways to make him feel comfortable and safe. Motley now loves when he comes over for walks!”
“Claire was absolutely amazing! She took care of our two dogs for two weeks and treated them like her own. Super reliable, communicative, and clearly an animal lover. We came home to happy, well-exercised pups and couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. Highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog walker!”
“5 perfect stars, if I could give more I would! Such a wonderful woman. She cared for my puppy and made it so I could trust someone while was work to come and walk her during the day. Always was there to help even on super short notice made sure my puppy was happy and safe:). I think my pup liked her more than me haha a massive huge help and I will recommend her to anyone that needs a walker. Thankyou very much for all the help you gave me :)”
“Consistency is important to me, so I was thrilled that Elizabeth was able to accommodate my schedule. I love the way she cares for my puppy and Elizabeth is great about sending reports and photos, I know he is always in good hands with her.”
“Chandler is a life savor! My roommate usually walks my pup but had a family emergency and I would have had to leave my dog alone for most of the day. I booked with Chandler last minute and she was more than willing to help out. She asked all the right questions especially for never meeting Mika or myself. And since she was a stranger to Mika, she took her time to gain her trust, something I am so grateful for. She went above and beyond, even taking in packages for us. I don’t have much need to use Rover other than emergencies like this, so if you’re reading this PLEASE book with Chandler!!! You and your babies won’t regret it.”
About: I babysit dogs because in my opinion a pet is like a family member, they can’t be in a cage or crate all day, and that is why I offer my services. I am very flexible to take care of your dog because I am home all day. I can take care of your dog or cat very well because I have plenty of time to devote and look forward to spending time with your fur baby I have a big fenced backyard for your dog to play in and though I have a dog, he is ok with dogs around him and they will probably get along well
“I would happily recommend Madison! Communication was excellent, she was prompt, and my dog was very happy to take walks with her. Also, I enjoyed the photos she sent. Thanks, Madison.”
About: I have taken care of a Border Collie since he was 6 weeks old. That dog is now 12 years old. I have helped raise this dog and have watched him interact with labrador retrievers and a labradoodle. I am devoted to pet care on a daily basis and want this as a part of my active and healthy lifestyle no matter what the weather might be. I am flexible and available to care for pets in their own home and have references to provide as needed. I am a tidy and considerate and able to travel to the pets home to accomplish this.
About: Over the past 5+ years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family, not as a business, but as a way to support them during vacations, work trips, or emergencies. It’s something I’ve always done out of love and a genuine desire to help. My wife also grew up having different pets, including cats, dogs, and other small animals. Together, we share a strong bond with animals and a commitment to provide them with comfort, safety, and affection. I work 100% from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care to the pets I look after. Your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They’ll never feel alone or ignored. We live in a comfortable, pet-friendly townhouse where your pet will be treated like family. Pets are welcome on the furniture and free to roam throughout the house. There are no restrictions on movement inside, so they can relax and settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. While we don’t have a backyard, we make sure dogs get regular outdoor time with safe, on-leash walks around our quiet, secure complex and the surrounding neighborhood. We never allow pets off-leash while outside, under any circumstances, to ensure their safety at all times.
“Mikayla was an awesome walker for my dog, he has some behavioral problems and she was always patient and kind to him, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing. If was really comforting to know I could leave my dog with someone that I trusted.”
About: I am a responsible, reliable and trustworthy individual who loves animals. I have cared for pets for over 20 years. I have owned and cared for all types of pets including dogs, cats, horses, fish, rabbits, ducks. I am a flexible caregiver for all of your pet needs. I can care for your pet in YOUR home or take them to my home. My goal is to ensure that you feel 100% certain your pet is perfectly cared for while you are away.

“Erin was wonderful! I booked two walks with her and unfortunately the first one was rainy (and my dog isn’t a fan of the rain!) but she was still able to get him out so he could use the bathroom and get a mini walk. For both walks she took photos and gave a brief rundown of how her visit went. She was nice and communicated well!”

Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with my dog! She’s incredibly patient, responsible, and always communicates clearly and consistently.
