“Tara is a top tier dog walker. She had so much patience with my shy, stranger-averse dog and took extra time to build trust. Tara left detailed rover cards for each walk and took plenty of photos.”

“Stephanie has been an amazing dog walker/companion for my pup while I’m at work. She’s been walking my baby Nahua consistently for about a month now. When I first found her on Rover she was kind enough to take time out of her day for a meet and greet . My baby is usually very apprehensive to meet people and does not trust easily. But after only 1 walk she now gets excited to see her. Stephanie has an electric and upbeat energy about her. She responds promptly, makes sure to keep me updated with multiple photos and detailed updates about their walks together . She is consistent, reliable, dedicated and goes above and beyond to care for my pup. More often that not she even extends the walk to give my baby more time outdoors. I would highly recommend her to care for your four legged children 🦮🐾. I hope Stephanie can continue to pencil us in for her services for a long time to come.”

“Demetrius was great with my big old bully. He took the job on short notice with no issues. It was the hottest days of summer and he powered through to give my boy Rizzo his daily walks. I loved the pictures he sent every day! Would highly recommend him.”

Janet takes such great care of my dogs and makes it so much easier to be away from them. She’s attentive, patient, communicative, and my dogs absolutely love her. They always get plenty of exercise, attention, and quality care, and are happy and relaxed when I get home. I absolutely trust Janet with my pets and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker or sitter!

Andrew is awesome! He’s such a fast walker so when he takes my dog on a walk it’s a WALK. My high energy pup always gets at least 2.5 miles in with Andrew and it helps so much on days that I am out of town. Andrew is also very detailed in his reports, responsive, and a pleasure work with

Mackenzie does an amazing job with my extremely high energy boxer. Boo is usually super hyper and can be a bit of a jumper, but Mackenzie does an amazing job of getting her calm and taking her on walks. I can certainly say that Boo comes back very satisfied and gets excited when I say Mackenzie’s name.

Mary did a great job walking my girls. I had a friend cancel last minute and she agreed to walk them with very short notice. I appreciated the photos she sent of them. She also helped with feeding them and putting on a tv show before leaving! Will be requesting her in the future.

Matt is a dog whisperer! He did a fantastic job walking our 75-pound pit mix, Rosie, for an hour each morning for 8 days. He was very punctual, great at dealing with Rosie’s habit of scrounging for food and her dog reactivity. He also took the sweetest photos for Rosie’s walk report cards. We will absolutely book Matt again!!
