About: Five years as a devoted dog mom, and pet care is my full-time focus — I'm home all day, so your dog gets constant company, never a long stretch alone. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets for years, from tiny lap dogs to big breeds, and I love learning each dog's personality, favorite games, and what makes them feel at home. I'm comfortable with the whole range: puppy housebreaking and basic training, senior dogs who need a gentler pace, strict medication schedules, and anxious or shy dogs who need extra patience. My home has fully fenced front and back yards for safe outdoor play, and I keep every dog on their normal feeding, potty, and walk schedule. I offer flexible early drop-off and late pickup, and you'll get photo and video updates throughout the stay. Pet care is my full-time focus — I'm a stay-at-home sitter, home all day every day. My whole routine revolves around the dogs: morning potty breaks and breakfast, yard playtime, midday walks, afternoon cuddles, and dinner on each dog's usual schedule. I'm flexible with early drop-offs and late pickups, including weekends. Dogs are rarely alone here — never more than an hour or two for a quick errand. My home has fully fenced front and back yards for safe outdoor play, and I keep every dog on their normal feeding, potty, and walk routine, following medication instructions exactly as written. Before our first booking, I always do a Meet & Greet so we can go over routines and make sure your dog is comfortable. I send photo and video updates throughout every stay.

“I’m so lucky to have booked with Amir. At the last minute, I found myself needing support walking my dog, Luna, for a week. We started with a “meet and greet” to get a feel for how things would go. Amir was great with Luna and she responded well to his kind and playful approach. As the week continued, Luna would stand at the top of the stairwell waiting in excitement for her walk. They developed a rapport and I’m sure Luna loved the long walks to the park. I really appreciate Amir’s consistency, communication, and dependability. He was great to work with. Highly recommend.”
“My dog Chewie loves Lydia for her walk. She’s reliable, communicative, and on-time (sometimes early even). Gives updates on how the walk goes, even with pictures. 10/10 would recommend Lydia for dog walking.”
“Alex was great with our Benji!!! Communicative and Reliable just like he says in his bio. I would absolutely re book with him again in the future. He sent us updates and pics of our boy, and helped us feel at ease with leaving Benji with someone new.”

“RJ took great care of Remy on his walk. He’s communicative, friendly, and transparent about everything. It’s my first time using Rover and it can be stressful finding someone to trust your fur baby with but I instantly felt comfortable with RJ and most importantly Remy did. He sent photos and videos throughout the walk which I loved.”

Jenna was a lifesaver! And Sequoia absolutely loves her! Can't wait for them to have more adventures & walks together. She was super communicative and send updates and was very caring and sweet about my gal's needs during peak summer heat. 10/10, 5 stars, all the kudos!
Raeyna was amazing! Cannot thank her enough when I asked for walks for my two dogs last minute. Shes very knowledgable and my dogs absolutely loved her. She was very understanding, responsible, punctual and informative. I cannot thank her enough and will be contacting her if I need my dogs walked again in the future.
Jacob is very punctual, has good attitude, he is polite and patient with my dog. He is an excellent dog walker. I will ask for him whenever my dog needs a walk. My dog is a very shy 65 pounder, he usually doesn’t let strangers get near him. Jacob is friendly and was able to have my dog approach him. Great job, Jacob. thanks.
Desiree’ was absolutely amazing. My Belgian Malinois is a high energy and aggressive breed. Desiree’ demonstrated great poise and assertiveness when walking and visiting Tre while I was out of the country. Tre grew a close relationship with her fairly quicker than his past dog walkers. 10/10 highly recommend
I had such a great experience with her walking my dog! She walked my puppy three times a week for several months, and it made such a difference, especially since my dog is very energetic. She was always incredibly reliable, kept me updated, and sent lots of photos, which I really appreciated. She’s also super flexible with her schedule, which made everything so easy. Overall, she’s been so kind, communicative, and wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
Nicole is hands-down the best dog walker we’ve ever had for Rony and Riley. Her communication is consistently excellent, giving us total peace of mind while we’re away from home. It is so clear that she truly loves animals and isn't just doing this for a paycheck; she treats our pups like they are her own. We couldn’t ask for a more trustworthy or caring person to look after our furry family members. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care!
Extremely patient and kind with my very reactive bully. Was attentive to surroundings during our walk and always looking for the best path to navigate Echo around and away from other dogs. She is now (finally) wiped out and sleeping on the couch after a mile and a half walk on the trails.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
