“Sam is an amazing dog walker! Sam is so sweet with my dog and really goes the extra mile to make sure she is well loved during the day while I’m at work. Sam is very communicative about any schedule changes and really flexible. Thank you for being the best, Sam!”
“Stacy was amazing. It was important to me to have a care giver familiar with a Pit bull Boxer mix. She was always on time, flexible if we needed to modify the schedule and communicated regarding any changes. The Rover system worked efficiently. I will definitely be using Rover and Stacy in the future.”
“Great Person, patient & kind dog walker, always responsible and on time. Kim helped me out nearly every day for two weeks while I recovered from surgery. She's easy to communicate with and a pleasure to greet at the door each day. Would definitely hire her again.”
“Alyson is incredible! I loved that she did a meet and greet before the first walk. She asked great questions and learned about our two girls. We felt very comfortable knowing she would be checking in on them while we are out for the day. Would highly recommend!”
About: My care of dogs runs from puppies to seniors. I currently have a puppy that I train and care for full time, and before her I had a senior dog that required special food, many meds, and subcutaneous fluids via IV drip. Pet care is my full time job and I will give your pups all the time they need, whether that's a brisk walk, a slow sniff-ari, or an action packed game of tug! I have a puppy that would love to play with your puppy (if allowed), either in your yard or house. I'm also willing to do any activities that your dog is accustomed to such as hiking, fetch, tug, or any other game/activity.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I could walk. Wether that be my own pets or neighbors I have always been trusted to keep furry friends happy. I work often but for 4-5 hours a day. Besides that I am always free and up for a short notice walk or care for your pet I care for pets by providing a welcoming and understanding environment, and always keeping an out for your furry friends safety, happiness, and their best interest.
“Emma was very reliable and great with our dog! We could always tell our dog got a good exercise in with her. We will be sure to book with her again! Highly recommend Emma!”
“Eleanor is great at communicating with both humans and dogs. She was clear in setting up a time to meet my dogs and at walking them while I'm at work. For the walk, right from the start I could tell she has excellent handling of dogs-- they covered a solid distance and my dogs were so happy when I got home from work. I am grateful for her help and will rely on her whenever I can.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and our family had a revolving door of fosters, rescues, and other pets in search of a home. While this has mostly been dogs and cats, I have experience taking care of a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, lizards, tortoises, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, rats - pretty much anything you’d be allowed to have in your home! I love working with pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. From a play date in the park to emergency vet visits, from mealtime routines to administering medicine, I know that each pet has certain things to make sure they are loved and cared for. I’m happy to work with you to make sure all of your pets needs are met :) I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I am able to be present whenever and wherever your pets need me! On occasion I travel for work, but I always have that updated in my availability schedule way in advance. For me, it’s the perfect way to take a mid-day break, get a new “office,” and spend some time hanging out with your furry friends! Because my schedule is flexible, I can make pet care a priority at different times of day, so if you need a constant presence, check-ins every few hours, or medication at a certain time, I’m happy to make it work. One thing I really prioritize is good communication with you as the pet owner so that you feel comfortable and can build trust with me. For some people, this may be photos or text check-ins, while others may need FaceTimes or phone calls to make sure their furry friends are all taken care of. My work schedule is very flexible and I am more than happy to meet whatever needs you have so that you can go about your day! When we meet, I make sure to take thorough notes for what pet care your pets need, even if you have written instructions prepared. That way, if something goes wrong, I have a backup of emergency numbers, medication locations, or other needs of your pet. I don’t have pets in my own home, but I have a fenced in yard and am happy to take them outside or to the local park for walks on-leash.
“I interviewed several potential walkers before finding Matthew. I don’t trust anyone. And I almost trusted Matthew😊 He did a great job. He speaks dog.”
About: I have taken care of pets through other online pet care, where I either boarded dogs in my own home or went to the home of my clients. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, as I have two dogs and cat! I am looking to make some money and surround myself with some furry friends while studying in college. I am available any day of the week, and weekends as well. Although I am not able to board pets at my house personally, I will provide the best care for your pets in your homely environment!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing them with attentive, personalized care. I make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while their owner is away. Whether it's going on walks, playing, or just providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient, and always happy to follow specific instructions to keep pets happy and healthy. Caring for pets has always been a natural part of my routine. Whether it's my own pets, friends' dogs, or past pet-sitting experience, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.

About: I have grown up around many dogs for most of my life and I am comfortable with all types and sizes! I know what it takes for pet care and I promise to treat your fur babies like they’re my own!

About: I’ve walked and taken care of dogs of all kinds during the past 5 years! Every dog I see I love and attend to them to the best of my ability.

Emily J.
“We love Emily! She regularly cares for our two rambunctious, large breed dogs - one of them is quite nervous and can be slow to accept new friends, and the other has medical needs, requiring twice daily medication, special food, and other accommodations. Emily handles it all with ease, and both dogs jump for joy when she comes in the door. She is responsible, kind and caring, communicates any issues or questions to us promptly, and when she stays overnight, she leaves our house cleaner than she found it. We had a winter storm delay our return trip at one point and Emily was quick to respond in helping us make backup arrangements for our dogs. We are so grateful for the love and care she gives our babies, and the peace of mind we feel when we travel.”

brooks b.
“Brooks has been an absolute blessing for our dog, Dixon. He provides exceptional care, walking Dixon several times a day, making sure he’s well-fed, and spending time playing with him. Dixon lights up every time Brooks arrives and is always so happy when we get home. We couldn’t ask for more reliable and loving care. Brooks goes above and beyond!”
Delaney M.
“Delaney grew up with 3 large dogs and has been surrounded by pets her whole life, experiencing every phase of doghood from puppy to geriatrics and has had exposure to all kinds of pet needs. She is flexible and can provide what owners need for their pets, ie administering pet meds, patience with apprehensive animals, etc. She has excellent communication with owners while they are away, even sending you pictures of your pets ;). Delaney is very compassionate, dependable, and will love on your pets like they are her own!”
