About: I’ve taken care of animals from dogs to guinea pigs. I currently have 1 dog, 1 cat, and 2 guinea pigs who I consider my babies. I have had experience all my life with all kinds of animals and can’t wait to love on your pet! I am a kindergarten teacher who during the school year, can be available for drop ins/walks after 3 pm. In the summer, I have a lot more flexibility in my schedule! Pets are our family and should be treated with love, respect, and compassion. Every animal in my care will be protected and loved! I’ve had pets all my life and my house is never without one!
About: I grew up in a pet loving household with cats, dogs and the occasional hamster or two. My husband and I now have a sassy 13 year old calico named Mittens and our newest addition is a rescue puppy called Leia. We also recently had to say goodbye to our senior dog Arlie. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats throughout their life stages and changing needs. I work for myself so my schedule is very flexible. Afternoons specifically I am usually wide open and love getting a good walk in with a pup! My weekends tend to be very flexible as well. I treat your pets as I do my own with lots of care, attention and love. After a life spent around pets I'm very good at reading their emotions and will do my best to have a fun and safe time together.
“Emma is absolutely amazing! She is reliable, professional, and truly cares for my dog like he’s her own. The updates and pictures she sends give so much peace of mind, and our dog gets so excited every time he sees her. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her — highly, highly recommend! ⭐️🐾”
“Kelly is the best! She’s on time and reliable. Our dog loves his walks with Kelly. She goes above and beyond. Great with our elderly kitty as well. We will be booking Kelly again!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs and my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique needs, personality, and energy level. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m very comfortable administering medication, following special diets, and giving extra attention to dogs with specific health or care needs. I also have experience with dogs at all life stages, including young pets who need patience, consistency, and structure, as well as senior dogs who may need a gentler pace, closer monitoring, and a little extra comfort. One of my biggest strengths is being able to match a dog’s energy. I’m just as happy spending a calm day on the couch with a relaxed pup as I am playing fetch at the park for hours with a high-energy dog. My goal is always to make each dog feel safe, understood, and cared for like they’re part of the family. As a full time remote student, I spend most of my day at home studying, baking and playing video games, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care for pets throughout the day. My flexible schedule makes it easy to incorporate regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and walks into my routine. I’m home the majority of the time, so pets aren’t left alone for long periods and can get plenty of supervision, companionship, and engagement. Whether it’s sticking to a specific routine or giving extra attention to more active dogs, I can easily adjust my day to meet each pet’s needs. My apartment community includes a fully fenced dog park perfect for quiet, one on one playtime in the mornings or socializing with other dogs in the afternoons. I also have a secure, dog friendly balcony that gets plenty of direct sunlight, ideal for pups who enjoy relaxing and sunbathing. For dogs that need more exercise, I’m located right along the rail trail in Southend, making it easy to provide longer, scenic walks as part of their daily routine.
About: I’ve been working in an overnight boarding facility for the past 3 years as a team leader with years more of experience from my personal pets. animals have always been my passion and i’m excited to broaden my expertise in my field!! i’m currently working on my own schedule, meaning i will always be available to you for any questions or pupdates you might want throughout your pups stay! i have a senior pup who lounges around all day and 2 playful kitties who do nothing but cause feline chaos!! i wouldn’t trade it for the world and have always been so excited to meet and grown bonds with any animal that will allow it!
“Tre has become like family. He is always available to take care of Dax when I need and treats him as if he was his own. He’s very personable, responsible, reliable, accommodating to my crazy schedule and he will definitely continue to be my go-to.”
“This was our first experience we had working with a dog walker . Rachel absolutely loves dogs. She happily met with us a couple of times for a meet and greet. Once at her house and once at ours. We loved that she sent pictures, showed us the walking route, and gave us a doggie report after each walk. The days she was scheduled to walk were hot and her flexibility to come earlier than planned was highly appreciated. We will certainly use Rachel again.”
“I had such a great experience! One of my dogs is usually very shy around new people, but she was so gentle and patient with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog walker, and I plan on reaching out again if I need help in the future!”
About: I grew up with golden retrievers, playing a huge role in there care. I’ve also helped care for friends and neighbors dogs, so am familiar with all sizes and breeds. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving medications if needed, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I have very few hours of required class, especially for the next couple summer months, and can easily pop-in whenever your pet needs! Happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for your pet. I'm very reliabe and attentive and will keep your pets safety top priority! I will also take into account any specific needs for your dog.
“Haley’s my lifeline, very reliable and great with Dash! She’s the only way I’m able to juggle everything. Dash knows when she’s about to come pick him up for their daily walks, he’s always waiting by the front door patiently, its so adorable!!”
About: I have been caring for furry friends for as long as I can remember. Friends dogs, my family dogs, and now my own not so little golden. A little embarrassed to say, but I was that little girl OBSESSED with watching animal planet and dog training videos haha. I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs — from energetic puppies to seniors needing gentle attention, training support, and consistent companionship. I work 3 days a week as a nurse so I am able to be flexible and available for all of your pet care needs :) I know how specific and strict I have been with my golden puppy’s training and schedule, so I am willing to follow any instructions you have when it comes to caring for you furry best friend. I also love a long walk or just cuddles so whatever your pet’s needs are am willing to fulfill them.
“Rachel was incredible! I reached out to her last minute to dog sit for a few hours. She was very responsive, arrived on time, and was great with my dog. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Carley was great. We knew she was going to be good with our puppy when she agreed to swing by the day before and do a meet and greet. We would definitely recommend!”
About: At the age of 12, I decided that I wanted to be a dog walker. I put up flyers and was able to make a little business out of it for a while. I love animals, especially dogs. I pay attention to detail. Dogs are extremely intelligent; that’s why I’ve always been so intrigued by them. I’m in college, so I’d like to fill some of my time doing something that I enjoy. I do have a fairly flexible schedule :) **Disclaimer: Im unable to board dogs that have excessive shedding due to my allergies. I do apologize for this inconvenience!! Making sure my fur friend is comfortable & at ease is vital. So, getting them situated with their necessities first, then making sure they’re comfortable in their environment. And if they allow a little play time, I take advantage of that as well!
About: What sets me apart is that I don’t just ‘watch’ dogs—I make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide personalized care, constant communication with photo updates, and peace of mind knowing your pup is in reliable, experienced hands. I am a registered nurse and work three 12 hour shifts a week. I am pretty flexible, however the days of the week that I am off vary from week to week. Therefore, I do not require a ton of notice. If I am off, I am more than willing to help! I provide more than just dog sitting—I create a safe, trustworthy, and nurturing environment where your pet can thrive. With a safety-first approach, open communication you can rely on, and a calm space that feels like home, I ensure your pup is happy, secure, and loved while you’re away.
Capitol Drive dog parents share their Rover experiences
Emma has been walking my puppy Oliver for several months now, and she has always been incredibly responsible and reliable. Oliver has also stayed with her a couple of times, and she took excellent care of him — keeping me updated with photos and being very flexible with scheduling. I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s with her. Highly recommend!
Ariane received a key to my apartment day one of our first visit, I was confident in her ability’s to take great care of my dog. She was on point, professional,communicative, and attentive to detail. I was very impressed with all the questions asked and care and thought into making sure all bases were covered. My dog loves her and I receive the happiest of photos! I will continue using Ariane in comfort knowing I’m receiving the best care for my dog for his lunch walks!
I couldn’t be happier with our experience! He was incredibly reliable and communicated so well the entire time. I loved receiving pictures and detailed stats from Marcelo’s full 1-hour walk—it gave me so much peace of mind. He followed all of the special instructions I left, especially around food, to a tee, and it was so clear how loving and attentive he was with Marcelo. My dog absolutely loved him. Truly a fantastic sitter—I almost wish I could keep him a secret! Highly, highly recommend.
Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our pup for the first time this weekend!! He followed directions very well and even adapted to an unexpected surprise when our alarm went off although we told him it was not set. He did a great job communicating! We highly recommend Daniel and will definitely be using him again!
