About: I have also fostered cats and Dogs and helped them overcome shyness and anxiety. Your pet will feel right at home with me. I can take your dog on walks or runs everyday or play with your cat indoors. I will always be available to talk or facetime if you miss your pet. I will be home most of the day. I used to do rover a couple years ago and finally have time to start again. I can't wait to meet all your amazing pet! I go into the office 3 days a week and am home the rest of the time. I am available for drop in visits and walks. I do not do boarding in my home but I am available to drop in to yours and take care of your pets. I have expertise with cats and dogs.

About: My family has always had dogs running around our house so I have grown up with such a love for animals, and I currently have a 5 year old greyhound/chihuahua mix. I would love to help anyone with their pets whether that be walks, drop ins or overnight visits! I have experience with each of these both with my own dogs as well as friends' and family's dogs and cats. I am a very active and energetic person so I would be up for lots of playtime and walking/running depending on what your dog needs. Please reach out if you are looking for someone I would love to help! I work from home, so I am available anytime for drop ins, walks and overnight stays. Because of this, I am able to be home with your pet and have flexibility with timing. I live in an apartment with several parks around. I also have a small dog so they would have a friend to play with. She is great with cats as well and lived with several for extended periods of time in the past.

About: I adopted a dog during the pandemic and share a cat with my husband. I grew up on a farm and would watch and care for the neighbors' animals while they were on vacation. I've been working on Rover for two years. I'm looking forward to meeting your pets and giving you some peace of mind while you're at work or on vacation. I work remotely, so I am available for housesitting, walks, and drop-ins as needed. Happy to make my schedule fit with yours! I work remotely and am available to house sit and do walks/drop ins if you live in Shaw. I am excited to talk and learn more about your animals! Please see the pet care experience section. The too long didn't read version: safety first. I love animals and treat them like my own family.

“Tameria quickly responded to booking request and was on-time for walking multiple walking. She has an easy going, dog-loving attitude. Our pit bull mix loved her immediately.”

About: I have dog sat for friends when they're out of town. I have watched my mom's cat for her whole life too. I love animals, I love playing with them, I love the excuse to get out for a walk, I love sitting with them, I love talking to them like they can understand what I'm saying. I genuinely enjoy hanging out with animals and care for them deeply. I work from home and have the flexibility to leave for a walk or run an errand whenever I need to. So if that means a 3 pm walk for your pup or a morning and evening feeding time for your pet, I'm here! I have a fenced in back yard, fenced in front balcony, and enclosed spaces throughout my home. I also have an open floor plan on the main level where I would feed your pet and hang out them mostly.

“Booked Tobias to walk my dog. He was on time and send photo updates from the time they spend together. Jhana had a great time. Will book again if needed and can recommend him as a dog walker!”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs since as long as I can remember. I grew up with an English Cocker Spaniel, and I regularly take care of my friends dogs (often I ask to take care of them even when they are in town because I miss their dogs!) I love being around dogs and seeing their goofy personalities, giving them love, and watching them trust and love me back. I work in the office 4 days a week, but I am regularly around Fridays through Sundays. I can do boarding, walks, check ins, play dates. Happy to discuss your pet needs and ways to make them and you more comfortable. I am highly communicative, I always send owners pictures when I am with their dog as an update. I can take dogs on long or short walks, whatever will cause the least disruption to their routine.

“I highly recommend Donta for dog walking. Felix loves him (which is the most important thing), and he is easy to communicate with and flexible with scheduling. I have rebooked him and would encourage others to as well!”

Pamela S.

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with a pug (Pumba), and dogs have continued to be a big part of my family. My dad has an adopted dog (Samba), and my sister also adopted her dog (Moka). I lived with my sister and Moka for three years, so I was very involved in her day-to-day care, including walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. Whenever my sister traveled, I was the one she trusted to take care of Moka. I’m comfortable following a dog’s normal routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, and regular potty breaks, and I can easily adjust to your pet’s usual routine. I live in an apartment in a walkable area with several parks nearby, which makes it easy to provide regular walks, outdoor time, and exercise. I’m very attentive to each dog’s routine, personality, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me.

“Katherine was amazing. Very professional and nice. She always kept me updated with pictures and messages. I highly recommend her to look for your dog,”

About: I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and slow-moving seniors. I’m good at managing different personalities, walks, medications, and creating a calm environment.I show up on time I currently have flexible availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to help with regularly scheduled dog walks, occasional drop-in visits, and last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows. I understand that life gets busy, so I do my best to provide dependable and convenient pet care that works around your schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! 💕 When caring for pets in their own homes, I always aim to follow their normal routines and the instructions provided by their owners. I make sure doors are securely closed, pets have access to fresh water, and their feeding, walking, and playtime needs are met. I respect every client’s home and belongings and believe in keeping communication open throughout each visit. I’m also happy to arrange a Meet & Greet beforehand so we can get acquainted and discuss your pet’s specific needs and personality.

“She was just Amazing with my little fur baby! He was very well cared for and she sent lots of pics and for a shy dog he warmed right up to her🐾”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to older dogs who need a gentler pace. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and commitment to treating every pet like family. I’m also experienced with leash training and basic commands. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break or a long, enriching walk, I’m here to help keep their tail wagging. I'm currently a grad student at Howard and I’d love to help families by giving their pups the attention and exercise they need while they’re busy or away. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I can also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so they know their furry child is in good hands.

About: Hi! My name is Katherine, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have approximately 18 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I grew up with a German Shepherd, helped raise a Husky puppy named Henry who is now our family dog, and my family currently has a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Because of that, I’m very comfortable with both high-energy and smaller breeds, as well as dogs in different life stages. In addition to dogs, I also have over 10 years of experience caring for cats, including our family cat and cats belonging to friends while they were away. I genuinely love animals and understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pet. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, and active, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while in my care. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, companionship, or extra patience and attention, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs and routine. I also believe communication is extremely important and will always provide updates, photos, and check-ins so you feel comfortable while away from your pet. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I work from home four days out of the week, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends depending on your needs. I’m very active and enjoy spending time outdoors, so I’m always happy to accommodate longer walks, playtime, and enrichment activities to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs ahead of time so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I’m attentive during walks, careful with introductions to other animals, and respectful of each owner’s preferences and boundaries. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while your pet is in my care.

About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life! I’ve done in-house dog sitting for family friends for close to a year now, and have been doing drop-in pet sitting since middle school! The safety and comfort of your pets is my top priority. I’m a current college senior, and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule! I can drop by in the mornings before my classes, between them, and come check on your fur babies in the evenings as well! I want to make sure that your pets still feel comfortable in their environment and aim to be able to keep them on their usual walking, feeding, and crate schedule while you are away!
