“Anastasia was great, truly professional. She offered to come over for a little meet and greet ahead of time. On the day of, she confirmed in the app and was timely in arriving. She took such sweet care of my pup and provided several photos of their adventures together. It is such a stress relief to know that my girl is getting nice, long walks during my working days now. We will be using Anatasia regularly!”

8. Natalie B.
“I met Natalie when I was hired to assist her in training an eight week old puppy. Natalie followed all directions diligently each and every week. She was always on time and prepared the new week's work. She asked intelligent and pertinent questions showing clearly her concern for the puppy's well being and health. Natalie is now teaching her pup advanced obedience and agility. She and the puppy are excelling due to Natalie's commitment to the task. I know that Natalie has a love for all animals and I confidently recommend her as an animal caretaker.”
9. Janie S.
“Absolutely love having Janie taking care of my lil 100lb pup. She takes him on long walks and at request, she will just kick it with him for a bit. Not to mention the pictures she sends give you something to bridge the distance between my pup and I. It’s nice to have an update on my doggie’s happiness while I’m away. The best pictures of my dog I have are from her. I definitely recommend using Janie to take care of your 4 legged fur buddy. She is AMAZING!”
10. Chelsea K.
“Where do I start. Chelsea is the best! She knows exactly how dog behavior can be affected by environmental stimuli through and through. Total understanding of reactivity and a thorough ability to care for any pooch with issues. She’s a gem and I rarely use any other caregiver if I can help it. Absolute saint. Thank you!!!”
11. Phedre D.
“Phedre is a very reliable and great dog walker! My two border collies were well taken care of. Great communicator and sends detailed information about the walk. Thank you so much!”
12. Craig H.
“Craig by far exceeded my expectations. I was worreid sick about leaving my pup. This is my first time using Rover, and I literally had only two days notice to find someone. Craig accomodated my last minute request to meet, and instantly I felt at ease with him. I travel once a month for work, and this latest trip is the first time I felt at peace and was not stressed out the entire trip with worry and regret. My pup adores him. He sent FANTASTIC pictures oftern, showed up as scheduled and communicated often with me. I can't say enough great things about him. Its so comforting to know we found such a caring and great human to help out with our fur baby. We are absolutely going to be repeat customers from this point on. 10/10!!”

15. Alex O.
“Wow !!! Alex is one of the greatest walkers around, took my Husky for 37 mins while I booked a 30 min session. My husky was exhausted when he came back!! Definitely recommend and will book it more often for sure !! Thank you Alex !!”
16. Allison M.
“Allison walked my dog landi while I was at work and went above and beyond. I had told Allison that Landi is a high energy dog so I’d appreciate if she took her to a park and throw the ball for her. I checked Landi’s AirTag periodically throughout the walk, Allison took her to the park as well as the river and walked her 5 miles total! Thanks Allison!”
17. Nicole W.
“Nicole is very caring, thoughtful, and responsible young adult. She cared for our fur babies, a 13 year old Great Pyr mix (Otto) and a 17 year old Siamese (Lola) for 10 days. She was attentive to all their needs including daily pills for Otto and special feeding instructions required for geriatric pets. Her love of animals was evident upon her first meeting them and then her regular communications and pictures showing our pets out for a walk or sleeping in her room. I would highly recommend Nicole and look forward to her caring for our pets in the future.”
18. Janessa M.
“Janessa followed all my directions with my pup!”
19. Kiana G.
“Kiana has extensive experience with animals. She comes from a diverse house of dogs that include small and feisty dogs and big, "Gentle Giants". She absolutely ADORES animals and will care for any and all animals. She even got my dog (nicknamed Fifteen Pounds of Fury) to let her pet him. She has a kind heart and, given some time, your pet will learn to adore Kiana just like my little Cujo.”
20. Lauryn K.
