About: While most of my pet care comes from three years as a cat owner, I naturally connect with dogs. From friendly neighborhood greetings to playtime energy, I bring patience, warmth, and dependable care for every furry friend. I volunteer part-time a few days a week, but I always make time for pets! I’m flexible, reliable, and ready to give your furry friends the love and care they need. When caring for pets, safety and comfort come first. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, provide plenty of attention, walks, and playtime, and keep a calm, loving environment. I treat every pet like family.

I am so excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! With years of experience in dog walking, feeding, and training, I understand that pets need proper love and care to thrive. I prioritize creating a safe environment that keeps your babies stress-free.

“Ana was wonderful! Reliable, on time and great with our big dog Cocoa. She communicated well with photos and updates and even checked in on my elderly mom who was staying with our dog. We ended up using her again for a 2-week vacation where she came twice daily for walks and did doggie daycare a couple of days. Our dog Cocoa loves Ana and her dog Otis who played together really well. Thank you Ana! We are so happy to have found you. ❤”
“Katie was great to work with! She was punctual, had great communication and sent us pictures of our dogs after their walks. They look so happy with her! I would definitely recommend Katie for your rover needs! Thanks Katie!”

“Andrea has met Bowie before so he was super excited to get a walk with her. She was amazing at communicating a couple of days before the walk to confirm all details and then during/after the walk. Bowie is always safe, happy and tired after seeing Andrea!”


“Zhengjun is amazing! She’s very reliable and great with communication, always sending lots of photos and updates. My dog absolutely loves her. I’m so grateful for her extra care on rainy days, making sure my dog is clean and dry before heading back into his crate. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a thoughtful and caring walker!”

“Cassidy is great! I always get thorough updates and she has been flexible with our last minute requests. She is very capable and experienced and I know my (sometimes anxious) pup is in good hands!”

About: Have worked for a family owned pet sitting business, have experience with seniors & puppies! Currently have a 13 year old chihuahua & a pet bearded dragon. My love / knowledge & patience for all types of pets is overall really what most people say sets me apart! Currently part time! Detailing is a business im growing, but my love for pets has always had my heart so I would love to do both! I have a bunch of parks walking distance from my home, which is where I walk my fur baby! When not out and about walking the dogs, boarded pets will be inside, as I always have my chihuahua inside to keep any pets company! We do have a front yard for quick potty breaks. If pets coming are scared / timid/ shy, can always provide a safe kennel / play area for them so they can keep calm & be relaxed if tired 😊
“I have been very happy with Isabel since day 1. She was willing to have a meet and greet, and my skittish new rescue took to her right away. She’s been kind and patient with him, I so appreciate her carrying him out of the building as the lobby and traffic scare him. I can tell he feels comfortable around her and I know she is observant of his comfort level out on their walks. Isabel communicates well and is very professional. I’m glad we found her!”

Rachel did an amazing job taking care of my English bulldog. She sent lots of pictures, left great updates that made me laugh, and my home was just as clean as when I left. I felt very comfortable and at ease while on my trip with Rachel taking care of my pets and will definitely hire her again!

Megan took care of and was walking Pepper for over a week. I am very happy I found such an amazing walker for Pepper. She is super reliable, always showed up right on time, and gave me peace of mind. Her communication is awesome, she made sure I knew house and dog were in good hands. She told me of her desire of being more with dogs again after her move to CA. She took the best care of Pepper and treated him like one of her own. It seemed to me that Pepper looks even happier, healthier than before they started their walks. Highly recommended and I will ask her again next time when I am away.

Claudia was so sweet to take my last minute request to walk my dog. She was on time and she was so attentive my baby girl. I met Claudia at a coffee shop a few weeks ago and she told me she used Rover, shared her booking link, and it came so handy yesterday where I needed a last minute walker. I see her profile is new, but she definitely experienced with dogs. Well definitely book her again. Thank you so much!!
Yumi is incredibly conscientious, thorough, and punctual. She asks all the right questions and pays close attention to even the smallest details. She also has a real sixth sense when it comes to animals and seems to understand how they are feeling and what they need. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your fur babies are in the right hands with her. I especially love the connection she has with Rio. Sometimes I feel like they must have met in another life. Their bond is genuinely special, and Rio gets so excited to see her. It is clear that he absolutely adores her.
