“As always, Ashley has been great with our older dog. But now, she shows amazing patience with our (sometimes trying) puppy. Thanks again, Ashley!”
“Bethany is great! Shes communicative, reliable, and a master photographer (she sends beautiful portraits of my dog during each walk). Highly recommend!”
“Atlas loves his walks with Mali! He's a young dog with typical lab energy and needs guidance. She understands his need to sniff while setting boundaries for him.”
“Carolyn is just the absolute best thing that has happened to us! I can’t say enough about her. She is perfection wrapped up into a beautiful human. Thank you for everything you do for my baby girl 🥰”
“I can’t say enough about how pleased I am with Bari and the way she took care of my border collie Woody. You can tell she has a genuine love for dogs and she takes her rover responsibilities very seriously. During my trip I was always in the know about how my dog was doing because Bari reached out to me each time she tended to him with texts and pictures which gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog is in great hands and being taken care of exceptionally well. I highly recommend Bari.”
“I’m always nervous leaving my dog at a new place. And during the recent months we’ve been together pretty much 24/7! Persia made it so much easier. She took excellent care of Sadie, sent beautiful photos (she’s a pro!), and offered plenty of structured playtime and adventures! I will definitely work with her again.”
About: As a dog mom to three (a husky, a shepherd mix, and a chihuahua), I understand that every dog has their own needs—whether they’re high-energy runners or slow-moving seniors. I’m active and love staying on the move, but I also know when to slow down. Reliable, flexible, and caring. My schedule is pretty flexible! I don’t have set work hours, so happy to fit in dog walks and visits throughout my day + weekend. I would be glad to follow whatever instructions/schedule your dog is on! You can count on me to treat your home—and your pet—with the same care I give my own.
“Abby is very prompt, caring and responsive- we’re so happy we found her and look forward to having her help with future needs for our dog Symphony. Thank you Abby!😊”
“Aichav has been great with my white German Shepherd. My pup can be a lot to handle and we haven’t had a problem. She’s communicative and responsive. She takes my pup on several walks throughout the day while staying in her home. A+!”
“Lila loved her walks with Ashlynn - she was prompt and professional. Would highly recommend!”
“Stephen is very friendly and communicative letting you know exactly when he will arrive. He is great with our yellow lab finding ways to help with his pulling on walks. I would highly recommend Stephen for your next dog walk!”
About: From obedience training to squeaky toys, Dukine is an animal play expert! They love to unleash your pets wild side and have a whole bunch of fun! When it comes to our ex-wolf companions, Dukine is a fan of going on sniff-safaris and mixing in some training to keep things interesting! They are Fear Free certified to ensure your pet gets the gentle touch they need. They also work part time as a veterinary assistant, so any medical accodimations will be in good hands. Looking forward to meeting you and your little friend! With a senior cat of my own, there is a good amount of daily care needed to keep her in good health. She loves to play so I am sure to get that energy out during the day so she won't demand a midnight session. She is also arthritic so I have trained her to take her medication with a treat. She has come to love pill time! I check her nails every week to make sure they aren't too long and that no litter is clumped in her toes. With a gentle touch, nail trims have become no problem! When meeting up with your pets, I am always sure to let them approach me first and foremost. Dogs tend to be so excited when someone comes to greet them so I give them attention to calm them down before going to their food and water area(s) and making sure all is well. In my experience, pets prefer fresh water so I will refill their bowls or top off their fountains. I will then tend to your pets individual needs after ensureing their living area is in order. Some pets require an energy outlet like a walk or play, some will prefer to be fed and admired, or ask for some cuddles. It is important to me to be able to fulfil your pets needs each and every visit.
“Jasmine did a wonderful job looking after my dog while I was out of town. She was super helpful and my dog loved her! Will definitely be booking her in the future!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life, from big and little dogs and puppies, kittens and cats and the animals on my aunt's homestead. I put a great level of detail into the care of animals and enjoy seeing them happy and well! I am very flexible with my schedule. I can do weekdays or weekends, and can schedule work in the evenings if that is what works best for you. I can work with you to form care schedules and will keep you updated on your pets behavior and well-being so you can rest assured they are being taken care of.
“Jaclyn is Ah-Maze-Ing! She arrives early, is very very sweet with my little guys, and is very trustworthy. A true gem that I highly recommend!!”
“Shay was very reliable - she walked my dog Beasely at 9 am and 4 pm for 6 days in a row. She sent me photos everytime she walked him. most important. Shay helped me when I had continuing problems with Rover.com's software, she helped me get the correct dog walking scheduled I needed, and to get rid of Rover.com's Repeat Weekly command. I was really disappointed that Rover.com does not have a CANCELLATION BUTTON TO remove schedules I wanted removed. -Pat G.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs throughout every stage of life—from birth to old age. Our first dog, Wong, was with me from age 1 until he passed at 18 years old. Caring for him taught me a lot about senior dog care and how to support aging pets with patience and love. Ji, Wong’s daughter, was born at home, and I raised her from birth until she passed at 15. She had autism-like behaviors and preferred her own space at times. Through Ji, I learned how to read subtle cues and support dogs who may be more sensitive or independent. Her unique personality helped me become more patient, observant, and adaptable. In addition to Wong and Ji, I also helped care for Wong’s extended dog family—six dogs total—all of whom lived to age 12 or older. I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities, and I always adjust my care to match each dog’s specific needs—whether it’s calm companionship, active playtime, medication, or quiet time. I currently don’t have pets at home, so your dog will receive my full attention. I live in a safe, peaceful neighborhood just a 5-minute walk from Taeho Park, a large, pet-friendly park that’s perfect for walks, playtime, and exercise. I’m committed to providing a loving, safe, and engaging environment for your furry family member. Caring for pets is a natural and joyful part of my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, meals on time, and outdoor exercise. I plan my day around your pet’s needs—whether it's morning walks, playtime in the afternoon, or quiet companionship for senior dogs. Living just 5 minutes from Taeho Park means daily walks and active play are easy to incorporate. I treat pet care not as a task, but as something I truly enjoy and value. Your dog’s well-being, comfort, and happiness are my top priority every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, safety and trust always come first. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with no other animals in the home—so your dog will have my full attention and a stress-free stay. I carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and activity preferences. If I’m in your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect and make sure your pet feels secure and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also keep you updated with messages, photos, and videos, so you always know how your dog is doing. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs.
“I don’t know what we’d do without Hans! Probably never be able to leave town again! He’s wonderful with our leash reactive anxious mess, and we came home to a dog who heeled much better than when we left!”
About: I’ve stayed overnight to house-sit and pet-sit, provided walks, playtime, and medication for senior dogs, and welcomed dogs into my own home, including pups with health issues needing special attention. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me because I treat their pets like my own: with love, patience, and a lot of snuggles. I’m ready to pursue my dream of doing this full-time. While I’m transitioning out of my current job, I’m already making pet care my top priority. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays, and I’m flexible with my schedule to make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and cared for. I have a fenced yard, two friendly dogs, and two laid-back cats who are totally comfortable with new animals. We regularly host pets of all ages—from playful kittens to senior dogs—so my home is set up for safe, loving care. I also have plenty of pet gates to keep everyone comfortable, secure, and peacefully separated when needed. Whether your pet stays with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I’ll follow your routine closely—walks, meds, crate time, cuddles—whatever helps your fur baby feel safe and at home.

“Jill is super active, exudes positivity and has a true love for animals. She has an awesome confident “let’s adventure!” energy that the dogs really seem to respond to.

Jill takes him on walks, plays with him, handles his prosthesis with no issue and allows him to be part of the pack. I know that Jack is in great care with Jill because he runs full speed into her open arms every time he sees her (plus she sends lots of photos)!”
