“Nia was wonderful with our 5 year rescue. Our dog can be a bit fearful and nervous around strangers. During the initial meet and greet, Nia spent over an hour building rapport and trust with our dog which was awesome. She tried a lot of different strategies and finally got her comfortable enough to go out for a walk, which was no mean feat. Nia was also very communicative - keeping us updated if she was running late. She provided detailed updates and photos on the daily Rover cards which kept us informed and comforted that our doggo was well taken care of while we were away.”
“Fennel is an outstanding sitter! They always keep me informed about the status of my pet and provide feedback and photos even when it is just for a short walk. They were also extremely helpful and reliable when I booked them for an all day stay. Highly recommend!”
“Victoria has been excellent to work with and Has great customer service. She goes the extra mile to ensure the provided service is completed. We plan on continuing to utilizing her services.”
“Ryan went above and beyond for our sweet doggo. He matched her pace and was attentive to her needs. Highly recommend! He will be a regular walker for us when needed moving forward.”
“You simply cannot go wrong with Tabitha. She communicated but most importantly she takes care of your pet like it’s her own. Highly recommend. Thank you again for another great week!”
“Priscilla has been watching Jake for almost a month now and she is great. Jake adores her, he loves walking and playing with her, and she takes great care of him. Priscilla communicates very well with me before and after she walks Jake, and she sends several pictures and video. She also asks a lot of questions about any special care or needs Jake might need. I can tell she really cares about Jake, and animals in general, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker/sitter”
“Jenny is so kind and patient with our senior pup who needs a little extra TLC these days. She is very communicative and accommodating and I’d recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much Jenny!!”
About: With a deep passion for animal welfare, I have developed a lifelong affinity for dogs. My household has always included at least one dog, and I have gained extensive experience in caring for them throughout my adult life. My children, now adults, grew up in dog-friendly households and have continued this tradition with their own families. I strongly believe that a home is incomplete without the companionship of a four-legged friend. I am well-versed in handling various breeds and sizes of dogs. Your dog and I will enjoy exploring the neighborhood together, discovering new sights and smells. On occasion, we may visit our local Starbucks for a pup cup treat, with your prior approval. We may also take a stroll through the nearby park, weather permitting. I understand the importance of providing dogs with opportunities to experience new environments and sensations. My ultimate goal is to ensure that your dog remains comfortable and stress-free at all times. Please feel free to contact me to schedule a meet and greet. I am available seven days a week, 24 hours a day, to provide pet care services for your fur babies. On Sundays, I am available anytime after 12:30 p.m., following church services. My residence features a fenced yard, providing a secure environment for my five pets. I diligently supervise them, limiting their time alone to brief intervals. We participate in regular walks, adjusted according to weather conditions. I prioritize their comfort, avoiding walks in extreme temperatures and taking measures to protect them from the elements.

“Jeanette is such a blessing to me and my little guy Romeo. She took care of him for four days while I was traveling out the country. Jeanette is kind, friendly , reliable . professional, trustworthy and great with dogs. Romeo loved her immediately. Jeanette perfectly followed the care plan that I created. She left my home very clean and even was flexible to add on an extra day of care due to flight change of mine. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!”
About: From being a dog walker at 13, to being in the medical geriatric field at 18, to now being a personal nanny for 2 children and their dog… I can truly say helping anyone I can is my calling. I’m currently working as a private nanny, but only needed when the kids are home from school. Therefore, I’m available any weekday (Except Tuesday) from 9:30am-3:30pm and, if needed, I’ll be free at 8pm. Saturdays I’m free all day, Sundays are my days off. I personally have a mini zoo in my house, but I always give my unconditional love and respect to all equally. Whether it’s taking the time to train, clean, groom, feed, walk, etc. I could never get enough of anyone’s fur babies (and/or maybe furless babies).
“Jaylynn was the absolute best - very kind and accommodating. She took very good care of our very active border collie while we were away; making sure he had enough exercise. She was very prompt and responsive. Highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to take great care of your pet!”
“Melinda was perfect in every way. She accepted our booking at the last minute and took exceptional care of our 2 Pugs. We didn’t have to worry at all and could enjoy our time away from home. Many thanks for making our first Rover experience a stress-free one!”
About: My husband and I truly treat pets like family. We’ve cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’ve taken pet training classes and have hands-on experience reinforcing basic commands and good behaviors. If you’re working on training, I’m happy to help keep things consistent while your pup is with me. I also provide enrichment activities like snuffle mats, puzzle toys, and interactive play to keep dogs mentally stimulated and happy. I work from home full-time, so your pet won’t be alone much during the day. I give regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also flexible and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. They’ll get lots of company, care, and cuddles while they’re here. Your pet’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. My home is clean and pet-friendly, with space to play and relax. I use positive reinforcement, patience, and lots of affection. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or visiting yours, I treat them like they’re my own.
“Shane and Brittany have been so great with me and my dog! I’m a worrier, especially when it comes to my dog, since she isn’t always a walk in the park. Shane and Brittany have been very patient with answering all my questions and giving feedback on Gucci’s daily walks. They have also been very attentive to Gucci’s needs. I couldn’t ask for better!”
“Laurie and James are the absolute best. Professional, attentive to the breed-specific needs of our dogs, loving, and highly responsible. I trust them implicitly with our pups and feel like we hit the jackpot in finding this duo. 💗”
“Kaitlyn has been walking our Dog since we brought him home a few times a week. She has been great with him, always sends pictures and spends some time with him in the house when they are done with their walk. Highly recommend!!”

Shane & Brittany did a great job with walking and caring for my dog while I was away on a work trip. My dog requires extra attention (and understanding) which was handled well and made me feel at ease being away from her. I would recommend them to care for anyone’s dog. The daily reports and photos were also appreciated.
Cin and Aaron have been so helpful with my dog’s midday walks! From the pictures and updates sent during their visits, in addition to my dog’s temperament when I get home from work, I can tell they’ve been taking good care of my dog and making her happier all around.
Nia is so kind and loving with my dog. She's very patient with my dog's reactivity and helps her to be calm. She's even gotten her to walk in the rain, and my dog HATES the rain and will often refuse to go. She's good about following directions for food and treats and checks in if she has any concerns. Thanks Nia!
Jenny is exactly what I needed. Other sitters get great reviews and later you find out they are not that great! Some are pretending, let’s be real. Jenny is the real deal. You can trust this person! She loves my dogs, and it seriously honestly makes me so happy. She cares about every detail and is genuinely a sweet, responsible, trustworthy person that I would recommend. I never write reviews, this person is worth your trust!
I have been using Benedicta for the past few months to walk my dog, and I couldn't be happier with the service! She is incredibly reliable and always arrives on time. What I appreciate most is her excellent communication. She keeps me informed about how each walk goes. It’s clear that she genuinely cares for the dogs she walks, and my dog absolutely loves her! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker.
