“Caroline is so sweet with my dog Ellie, you can tell she really loves animals. She’s communicative and easy to schedule with, highly recommend for dog walking!”
“Did a great job caring for my pup! Gave her long walks, updated well, showed up on time, and hassle free with instructions for building access and care for my pup.”
“Niah has been a wonderful part of Princeton Antonio’s daily routine, and he gets extra excited whenever she arrives! She’s energetic, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. One of the things I appreciate most is how she always sends me sweet photos of Princeton that I can share with my mother in Chicago (who, by the way, adores her St. Louis-based grand-dog). Rain or shine, Niah shows up every evening without fail. Her dependability and connection with Princeton have been incredibly helpful while I've been recovering from a broken ankle. She has my highest recommendation to anyone who needs a dog walker or pet sitter.”
“Uğur has been walking my dog Kenny for only two weeks now and I can't sing his praises enough! He has gone above and beyond to care for and communicate with my dog. I can tell Kenny really likes him and vice versa!”
“Jamie has been our constant for the last four months. He is reliable, communicates well and shows my babies sooo much love and kindness everyday. I could not be more comfortable and trusting of him and the genuine care he shows me and my pups every single day. Thank you Jamie, you are truly a blessing in our lives!”
About: I have experience with both dogs and cats, female and male, kittens/puppies being bottle fed, middle aged animals, and seniors taking medication. I also have experience with aggressive cats specifically. My name is Mary by everyone calls me Mae. My pronouns are They/Them. I am looking to earn money through my passions. One of those is helping animals! I am available any time necessary to do checkups on your animal(s)! I make sure their water is always full, that they aren't over or underfed, and that they've had plenty of bathroom breaks, playtime, and cuddles! I'll give them treats if you let me too!
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life — dogs of all ages, guinea pigs, fish, and more. I truly enjoy giving animals love, attention, and fun! With no evening classes this semester, I have plenty of flexibility in the mornings. Walking dogs fits perfectly into my routine, and I enjoy starting the day active and outdoors. I give dogs freedom to sniff, stroll, and play at their pace—always sticking to their routine and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.
“Kyani handled my 71lb puppy with ease. She is incredibly observant, knowledgeable and experienced. I was nervous about finding someone to handle my rambunctious pup but she was amazing. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH”
“Danielle was great! She arrived right on time and was very communicative and easy to get ahold of. she also took so many pictures which I loved! Would definitely recommend!”
“Jingru is absolutely the best. She has been regularly walking my border collie (Argos) for a couple months now. She's been very reliable but has been very reasonably flexible with me. I work long hours (scientist) so it's been a tremendous help. She regularly takes him to a lovely dog park of which I am a member and he absolutely adores her. I've come to terms with the fact that given the choice he might pick her over me. I've only seen them together once (key exchange). He saw her at a distance after having not seen her for a full week and immediately started loudly crying from excitement. He doesn't cry or bark in general or for anyone, but he just really loves her specifically. I highly recommend Jingru, she might capture your pets heart, but you can be sure your pet will adore her.”
“Sarah has been fantastic! She’s really good with both of my pups despite them having polar opposite personalities. She’s very professional and a great communicator. Would highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with two amazing dogs, Lassie and Maci. They weren’t just pets—they were my best friends.

Columbus Square dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jamie is fantastic. I have a Dalmatian who does not like strangers and he came for a meet and greet and was really patient and knew exactly how to handle and react to her behavior. They were best pals in no time. I use him for 5x a week walks and he always sends pictures and notes about their trip. Very responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommend.
Catelyn stepped in to walk my dog, Princeton Antonio, for a few mornings while our regular walker was away and she made a wonderful impression in such a short time! She was communicative, punctual, and kind, and she treated Princeton with such care and attentiveness. On her last day, she even left a thoughtful thank-you card, which speaks volumes about the kind of person (and professional) she is. Though our time together was brief, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind-hearted dog walker.
Niah has been a wonderful part of Princeton Antonio’s daily routine, and he gets extra excited whenever she arrives! She’s energetic, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. One of the things I appreciate most is how she always sends me sweet photos of Princeton that I can share with my mother in Chicago (who, by the way, adores her St. Louis-based grand-dog). Rain or shine, Niah shows up every evening without fail. Her dependability and connection with Princeton have been incredibly helpful while I've been recovering from a broken ankle. She has my highest recommendation to anyone who needs a dog walker or pet sitter.
Jingru has been an absolute gem of a dog walker for my pup, Princeton Antonio. From the very start, she was the first to step up and has consistently proven herself to be responsive, efficient, and reliable. Every morning, without exception, she shows up on time and ready to go. I never had to worry about a thing, since her consistency and dependability gave me peace of mind while I've been recuperating from a broken ankle. Jingru is truly a professional, and any pet parent would be lucky to have her on their team!
