“Jasmine is totally reliable and kind and gentle with Millie. Even though it hasn’t been that long, Millie gets excited to see Jasmine and is obviously very comfortable with her.”
“Haukiu is a very considerate, responsive and helpful walker. My grandma has mobility issues and couldn't walk my dog when I got stuck late at work and Haukiu jumped in last-minute and saved the day! She wiped my dog's paws and my grandma reported that he was very happy when he came back from his walk. Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely thrilled with the dog walking service provided by David! Our family hired him for two weeks while we were on vacation, and he has been exceptional. He’s incredibly responsible, always punctual, and, most importantly, our beloved dog Nico adores him. It’s heartwarming to see Nico so excited to spend time with him every day. David has gone above and beyond, and we couldn’t be happier with his service. We highly recommend him to anyone in need of a caring and reliable dog walker!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Growing up around family dogs and later pet sitting for friends during university gave me experience with a variety of dog breeds and cat personalities. On Rover, I’ve provided attentive care for cats and dogs, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, giving supplements & medications, stimulating them with fun games/exercises and spending quality time with them to ensure they feel safe and relaxed. After graduating, I welcomed my own fur baby into my life, which deepened my understanding of daily pet care and companionship, as well as the level of trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I would love to meet and care for your furry family members — whether they bark or purr! I specifically offer drop-ins and dog walks, which allows me to dedicate focused, quality time to each pet without overbooking. I schedule visits carefully to ensure punctuality and consistency, whether it’s morning, midday, or evening care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. During drop-ins, I handle feeding, refreshing water, litter box cleaning or potty breaks, and provide playtime or companionship based on the pet’s personality. For dog walks, I ensure safe leash handling, proper exercise, and always clean up afterward. I treat every home with respect — keeping spaces tidy, locking doors securely, and following any specific instructions carefully. I will also provide ample updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
