Sophie was fantastic. She was a great communicator and extremely patient with my dog, Loki, who was meeting her for the first time and takes some time warming up to new people. Would highly recommend.

About: I have a ~30 lb dog who loves both cats and dogs. She is chill but will be playful if a friend wants to play! We go on lots of walks and have plenty of cuddle time. I’m currently a full time radiation therapist student but only have classes Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays for a few hours a day so the longest I will be away from home is 4 hours at a time. I allow animals on my furniture and they are free to roam while I’m gone. If needed, I do have a size L dog crate that they can use. I usually go on a .5-1 mile walk about twice a day and take them out in between the walks for potty breaks as well.

Great with my pup. Always on time and accommodated to any change. I wish she could keep walking Rafa but I understand she has other commitments. Emma gave me enough advance notice, which shows being responsible and respectful. I will definitely trust her with my pup again ??

About: I have been dog sitting/dog walking since I was in high school. I’ve always grown up around dogs and had a special love for them. I understand it’s a lot of trust to leave your fur babies so I try to make it as easy as possible for you! I’m currently a hairstylist so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m a homebody as well, so most weekends I’m just snuggled up with my dog beaux watching movies! I treat every animal as if it’s my own. I like to keep clients updated with texts and photos of their animal. When staying at a clients home I make sure all the cleaning and tidying up is done before they arrive.

An absolute God-send! I live about 3 hours away and was coming to town for an event. Summer met me at Ulta to take my dog while I got my hair and make up done. Because I went to the wrong Ulta, i was late and she was so accommodating (I communicated for her, so do the same!). She even helped me keep my appointment there while she waited for my dog and I. My dog came back tail wagging and so happy she got to play ALL the fetch!!! Couldn’t recommend her more.

About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm never out of the house for long. Maybe 4 hours max, but rarely more than 2. Our old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Fenced in yard. We have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. We had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.

About: Hi! I'm Natalie 😊 Welcome to my page! 🫂 Not only will I care for your dog or cat I’ll love them like my own! I have experience with pets of all sizes and breeds, from gentle English Mastiffs to tiny teacup Yorkies, and I’ve been a go to pet sitter for friends and family for many years! I'm known in the family as pet obsessed🥹. I was a longtime dog mom living with my parents to two very special pups who lived long, happy lives until ages 17 and 12. While they’ve since passed, they gave me invaluable hands-on experience, especially with senior care, medications, and lots of patience, cuddles, and attentive routines. Now that I don’t currently have dogs of my own yet, I truly enjoy filling my days (and my heart!) by caring for yours. Spending time with animals brings me so much joy, and being able to give your pet love, attention, and companionship means the world to me. Every walk, cuddle, play session, and tail wag genuinely makes my day and I treat each pet as if they’re part of my own family Whether your pet needs a little extra TLC, a structured routine, or endless playtime, I’m always happy to help. From nonstop Frisbee and walks to relaxing sunbathing sessions, I tailor each day to your pet’s personality so they feel comfortable, engaged, and never bored. Rover isn’t just a job to me, it’s truly a passion. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and totally at home while you’re away. I want you to come back relaxed and smiling, knowing your best friend was happy, well cared for, and showered with love the entire time!🥰 I do have a full time job. However, it is somewhat flexible if I am requested ahead of time. 😊 Please don't hesitate to reach out! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make safety my top priority from closely supervising interactions with other dogs (especially if your pet prefers to be alone) to maintaining a calm, secure environment. I always follow your instructions carefully and am experienced with administering medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing any special care your pet may need.

About: I have over 3 years of hands-on pet care experience working with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve cared for large breeds such as Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, and German Shepherds, as well as smaller dogs like Poodles. I also volunteer at the Humane Society, where I regularly walk and handle dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, basic care, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently working a part time job, I only work late mornings to early afternoons, so I have lots of time to feed and walk your pups! I’m pretty flexible with that being said, and can accommodate to your schedule. I understand that everyone’s pup is different with different needs! Most of the time owners have set agendas for their pups, so I follow that to ensure the pup gets what they need.

Amanda did an incredible job. I was nervous about leaving my dog care to a stranger for the first time. Amanda was professional, responsive and my dog Cleo loved her. My Furbo dog monitor shows that she never barked while I was gone, which is a first, and means she got all the attention and care she needed. Amanda is now my go-to: 5 stars!

Kelsey was truly amazing! I hired her last minute after my previous walker moved, and she was incredibly accommodating, which meant so much since my dog is a newly adopted rescue. She was always on time, very responsive, and kept me at ease with her detailed report cards after each walk. It was clear that she treated Honey like her own dog and genuinely cared about her comfort and happiness. I’m so grateful to have found Kelsey and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker.

Woof! Hi, it’s me, Lucy. I am using my hooman’s phonr (don’t ask how) because I simply must leave a review for my Rover sitter, Jenna. First of all, when my hooman left, I thought “oh no…”. But the Jenna walked in, smelled like treats, sunshine, and someone who definitely knows how to scratch behind my ears properly. Jenna walked me and even threw the ball for me at the park! I even got a belly rub when we got back. Now that is service! Can’t wait for Jenna to walk me again! A++++
