“My husband and I work long hours at our jobs so we hired Rene to come over and walk our puppy twice a day while she is so little. Rene goes above and beyond for our Maybel as she is not only walking her but helping us potty train her. If there is a mess in the crate, Rene is more than willing to clean it up and get our pup all clean and set back up! She also spends time writing out full reports from her visits and is so patient with our pup! We would be lost without her!!!”

“Paige did a wonderful job with Ruby and I really liked that she took time to meet us and Ruby before the walk. I hope to hire Paige again to walk Ruby. Paige seems to really love animals and care about them. She was on time and did a little training along with the walk.”
“Regan is an awesome walker. Our dog Chelsea looked forward to her walks with her. Regan is kind and caring and it showed because Chelsea couldn't wait to walk with her. Chelsea even walked in the rain just to ve with Regan, and she doesn't like getting wet. Regan is a great communicator and always send nice pics and let us know how their walks went. I would recommend Regan 100% to take care of your pup!”

About: I grew up on a farm where animals were my first friends. I’ve had pets my whole life and as a parent, my kids quickly learned that I could never say no when they wanted a pet. We’ve had fish, cockatiels, hamsters, parakeets, guinea pigs, cats, and a variety of dogs in our home. We currently have a cat and two German Shepherds. My weekends are mostly wide open and I’m available any time during weekdays since I’m off during the summers. I would love to help take care of your furry friends! I am a teacher so I’m available any time during the summer and usually wide open on weekends for drop-in visits or dog walk dates. I am unable to watch your dogs in my own home, however. I would just need a day or two notice. I am very dependable and trustworthy. I would be happy to come to your home, play and cuddle with your pets, give them a break from their crate, feed them, walk them, play outside, etc… whatever you need to make your life easier and your pet’s life better!

About: Hi everyone my name is Alicia. I have always been an animal lover since i can remember. I have grown up around dogs. I have personally owned both cats and dogs. My family is also animal lovers. I have 3 daughters 14, 11, and 5. We love going for walks in the summer as a family. Your puppy/dog will have the best visit ever with myself and my family and will love all the attention from the kids!! We are always home on the weekends too so I'm always available even with short notice :) hope to hear from you soon!!!! And thank you for giving the opportunity to watch your four legged kids!! I am a stay at home mom so I have fairly open availability during the week and on the weekends. I do make my own work schedule so I can easily fit clients in. I am located in a neighborhood with little traffic so I can take your fur baby(s) out for walks around the neighborhood. Unfortunately at this time my yard is not fenced but they would never be left unsupervised outside.
About: Experience dog sitting for friends & neighbors! I love dogs and I'm a previous Dad to a German Shepherd, but do not have any current pets . Excited to pamper and play with your pup! I'm almost always home, so I can fit you into my schedule anytime! You pup will be slathered with attention and taken on walks etc. Willing to pick up/drop off as well! I have a fully fenced yard, and I'm home to go on walks and enjoy playtime! I can send photos so you wont miss your pup as much while you are away : ) I don't have pets or kids, but love spending time with my niece and nephews.
About: I share my genuine love for long walks and outdoor adventures—because a tired dog is a happy dog! I pair that exercise with plenty of treats, endless smiles, and lots of love. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll or a playful romp, I make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and truly cared for every step of the way I have a full time remote (work from home) career with flexibility to add some walks and cuddles to my day. I am able to drop in for a walk/feeding/attention or I can accommodate extra furry friends at our home. I am a wife and mom of an active family of 5 with 3 college kids and a 5 year old golden retriever. I live in a quiet neighborhood on a lake where I spend as much time as possible outdoors.
About: I absolutely love dogs, grew up with a Shih Tzu Poodle and now my mom has a pure bred Shih Tzu that I steal from time to time (see picture). My boyfriend’s family has an English setter and a blue healer, so I love hunting/high energy dogs as well! I do work in office Mondays, Wednesdays and some Fridays which is about an hour commute. I am usually gone from 7:30-5 ish, so dogs who can be alone for that long work out well. I work fully from home Tuesdays and Thursdays so I can let them out whenever on those days. I live in a 2,200 sq ft town home, and a half fenced in yard. Just me and my boyfriend live here so no kids or other animals will be around. We do allow dogs on the furniture and they can sleep with us if they’d like, we like to snuggle
About: I currently have two pomskies, a russian blue, and a black cat. I also had two 80 lbs Weimaraners, a black cat, and a teddy bear hamster growing up as well as taking care of all the neighbors pets when they would go on vacation prior to starting Rover! I now have interacted with almost every size of dog and multiple cats through my services. - I was a dual-sport athlete in college where I did gymnastics and track, and I currently weight lift. I preface this because some pet owners in the past have said I appear to be a smaller girl but I am stronger than I look and have walked/taken care of big dogs and very high energy dogs😂 - My services include: •30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood to give your pet some fresh air and exercise during the day. •30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of love to make sure your pet is comfortable while you’re away. You may book two per day! •I’m always open to any extra needs or modifying for your situation!! I’m currently in law school and have class mid-day from August to May. I have mornings and evenings/nights open for drop in visits and dog walking during these months. From May to August, I work very early mornings 5x a week. I’m free 2pm and onwards during the summer months for drop-ins and dog walking services. I also stop by prior to my 6am start time for work to do drop-in visits as well. Please don’t be afraid to reach out for anything at all! •I always allow meet-and-greets for a quick 10 minute appointment (free) prior to any drop-ins or walking services so that I’m no stranger to you or your pet before I stop by for the first service. This also allows us to establish what needs your pet may have and your expectations for me. These aren’t mandatory to be able to book with me, just solely a comfort thing! •I remember the way pet items were stored in your home and return them back to the way they were after I’m done using them. •I always message you and ask for permission prior to entering any other part of the house that’s not necessary to the service. This rarely happens, but for example: a dog I came to walk was sleeping in the master bedroom so I messaged the owner first prior to retrieving him for our walk😂

About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.
