“Our dog loves when Hayley comes to pick her up for her walks! Hayley is extremely attentive, flexible, always on time and super responsive. Would highly recommend her as a dog walker or caretaker.”
“Kristie was a great fit for my shy pup that is especially nervous with new people coming into the house. Kristie took the time to do a meet & greet before their first dog walk date, she was patient when my pup was hesitant to be touched, and built trust quickly so they were able to go out for a quick walk. Thankful for Kristie's great attitude and will definitely go to her for my dog walking needs in the future!”

“Many thanks for all you’ve done in the past couple of days to keep the routine going for the dogs. Appreciate the communication, responsiveness, and care while we were away. Anyone who books with Emily will be lucky to have her.”
“Cannot recommend Lydia enough. 5/5. My first time using the app and I couldn’t have come across a better representative of the spirit of Rovers intention. Lydia truly went above and beyond, was flexible, understanding, and accommodating— not just to me, but to the animals and curve balls they gleefully provide.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15 years old. Back in Argentina (where I am originally from), I used to rescue stray animals, provide them with their first care, and help find them loving families for adoption. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy making them feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently working part time from home so I have plenty of free time to enjoy the outdoors and take care of your pup while you can’t! . There’s plenty of room at my house to play and there is a lot of beautiful places arround the neighborhood to go for a walk
About: Hello, My husband works as a scientist and I work for the department of education as an athletic trainer. We have a 2 and 5 year old that love animals. I am comfortable giving injections or pills if need be. We like to stay as active as possible and go on hikes, beach, walks as much as we can. The area we live is safe and quite place. There is a duck pond right next store and a park right across the street. My husband and I have been pet lovers since we were kids. He was raised with cats, birds and dog. While I was raised with dogs. We recently lost our English Bulldog of twelve years and even though we would like to get another dog in the future we would be happy watching your pets in the mean time. We do have little kids. They are 2 and 4 years old. We would prefer to watching dogs that are use to little kids. I don't work till the afternoon so morning walks are a must. My goal is to tire them out in the beginning on the day. Your pets are like our family. They are allowed on couches and beds. They will be loved like I love my kids. thank you very much
About: Most recently in March 2022, I enjoyed housesitting a sharpei for 3 weeks. Before that I housesat a very adorable golden doodle for a week. In 2021, my friends would often leave their dogs with me when they would travel lasting from days - weeks. I recently completed the Google UX Design Certificate. Therefore, I’ll be job hunting full time; I have time throughout the day to walk, feed, and hang out with your dog! Since I will be housesitting, your dog will be familiar and comfortable in their own home, decreasing the possibility of anxiety and maximizing their comfort!

I have a flexible availability to care for your pet as needed, including house-sitting. With 1 week advance notice, I can accommodate to meet the care days you're looking for.

Downtown dog parents share their Rover experiences
After such a great experience the first time, I knew Sasha was the person I wanted to call when I needed a dog walker again! Penny is always so excited to see her and comes back happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s in such loving and capable hands. Sasha is reliable, caring, and truly goes above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing dog walker!
Hayley has been so fantastic in helping us to adjust to our new routine - she’s consistent, communicative, and sends photos of their daily adventures which I love. My two little ones are not the easiest on the leash, but she handles them like a pro and they seem so happy, thank you!!
Josie is a gem. She has always been helpful with Alika. Josie helped me take him to the vet, it would have been so much harder for me without her there. I really appreciate all she does. Alika loves spending time with Josie, Jonah, and their dog Money when they come with her. They alway spend extra time with him and he loves that.
Tameia was amazing with Mochi! I sent a last-minute request for a walk and she was still able to accommodate us, which I really appreciated. She was very professional, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure Mochi was comfortable and well taken care of. She also sent plenty of photos and updates during the walk, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Mochi came back happy and tired from all the attention and play. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring for their pets!
This was my first experience with Rover….it was awesome.. Gretchen was great with communication …Olive loved her…perfect energy for our one year old ! I will definitely use Rover in the future….so easy and has a very professional manner which makes you feel safe entrusting your pup with them PD
We asked Liana to do a "run-through" with Ke'o (she will be walking Ke'o for an extended time during our 2-week travel). She was absolutely the best! Her energy was loving, caring, and attentive. She understood Ke'o's needs and quirks--Ke'o loves her. Liana was also very understanding and comforted us humans -- leaving of us knowing that Ke'o is in good hands!
Christina is a terrific caregiver to my older dog Bella. Bella loves taking walks with her. She knows Bella is up in age and is very careful to walk slowly with her. Christina is always on time and is excellent about letting me know how Bella did on her walk. I feel lucky to have found her to take care of my fur baby!
Tatia and I are extremely thankful to Jazmin to accommodate us last minute request. She was very professional with Jerry and Jerry was always anxiously waiting Jazmin's arrival for his routine walk. We will absolutely consider Jazmin again for future and will strongly recommend her to any dog owner. We give Jazmin a 5 STAR rating. THANK YOU JAZMIN !
Kristi was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous, but she immediately put us at ease. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with our dogs. They came back happy, calm, and well-exercised after their walk, which says it all. Kristi followed all instructions perfectly and treated our dogs like they were her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and will definitely be booking her again. Highly recommend!
