7. Sene V.
“Sene has been my dog walker for several months and is amazing! She is sincere in her care for Ziva and truly understands dogs. Sene addresses negative on-leash behavior in a manner that is sound and force-free. She is in-tune with body language cues that indicate when Ziva may be on guard, or scared and Sene has the skills needed to ensure my dog’s well-being throughout the entire walk. Best of all: MY DOG LOVES SENE! I go to work each day knowing that Ziva will be looking forward to Sene arriving and playing ball and going for a walk. I know that Sene will message me with the Rover app when she arrives, send me a photo and message me when the walk is completed.”

11. Hazel C.
“There are some people in this world who are just born to be caretakers of the animals. Hazel is one of those. She loves dogs particularly. Hazel's ideal world would be one in which she lived with a whole pack of dogs. Seriously! Haha. She treats her own dogs with respect, discipline and kindness and they have always been happy dogs living happy adventure-full lives! Hazel is a strong individual and I would, and have! trusted her with big stubborn dogs. I have also seen her in action when there are crises'. She is level headed and thoughtful. Everything you would want in a dog sitter!”

13. Talulla A.
About: My family included a lot of pets growing up; I’m a big animal lover and have had experience taking care of dogs and cats my whole life! Neighbors have also had me dog sit for them during their vacations. I’m on summer break college and have a lot of free time currently! I’m available most days of the week, including most evenings and weekends I have experience walking large and/or reactive dogs; I know how to stay in control and keep them safe when encountered by other animals or people.

16. Jane H.
“Jane did a terrific job walking our dog every morning while I was away and my husband had mono. She showed up either on time, or early (and let us know she was going to be early), and walked our dog for at least an hour. And always sent pictures. We highly recommend Jane, and will happily hire her again!”
17. Laura B.
“I’ve known Laura for about 4 years now, she is a beautiful person inside and out, her love for dogs is known. When I first me Laura she had a little girl named ruby, then came Max a high strung shepherd/husky. She took him into training immediately and she has done wonders with him. He turned out to be one of the best trained and friendly dog I know. Yeah it didn’t stop there next came Stella a dog she rescued, and Stella is a doll with good manners and friendly. Not to forget about Ruby she is sweet as can be. Laura made sure all those dogs are well cared for with proper care. I highly recommend Laura she is so friendly and loves to be in the outdoors and is a super snuggler when it comes to dog hugs❤️”
