“Viviana has been a wonderful dog walker for my parents’ dogs, Coach and Clyde. Both dogs immediately loved her and she was prompt and responsive for all communications and in scheduling future dog walking appointments. Highly recommend her for all dog walking needs!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have experience with dogs who have special needs, specifically, neurological disorders requiring medication administration. I’ve spent the last two years training my dog, Bubba, through separation anxiety and reactive aggression. He went from chasing cats to occasionally taking naps with them. My first dog, Lilly, was reactive to dogs and when I brought home Bubba as a puppy, my family called him “snack” because they didn’t think it was possible, but she immediately took him in and they were inseparable for 7 years! I’ve always been gifted at reading animals - humans, not so much. I will always advocate for those who can’t advocate for themselves :) I’m available every day, whenever you need! I recently quit my job and needed a fun way to get a little extra cash before moving to the PNW! Unfortunately, my dog is an anti-social introvert and doesn’t like visitors. His house, his rules… However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet inside of your home!

About: I’ve always been told I have a way with dogs. I absolutely adore each and every dog I come into contact with. I’m patient, I’m loving, and I will work my absolute hardest to ensure the best possible experience not only for your animal but for you as well. I take pride in being reliable, and going above and beyond no matter what 💝 I have a very open schedule right now, and will work with anyone to make things run as smoothly as possible in regards to their pet needs/wants. My pets are the most important aspect of my house. I will make sure they have adequate potty breaks and I will make sure they have the best time ever when they are in my care. My house is safe, clean, and very pet friendly. They are treated like family around here ☺️

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up, and sticking to their normal routines. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I have a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to dedicate reliable time to pet care. I plan my classes and study hours carefully, which makes it easy for me to provide structured walks, feeding times, and quality attention. I’m responsible and understand the importance of being dependable. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. My priority is making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve worked with animals my entire life, but especially in the last 5 years. While taking care of other people’s beloved pets ranging from young to senior pets, I’ve also always had dogs, cats, and other animals of my own. I’m currently a student with a sparse schedule so I will have plenty of time to take care of your beloved animals :) I can be available weekdays, weekends, and some holidays! I have no problems crating animals if needed, along with staying with them outside, taking them on walks, and I’ve worked with reactive dogs in the past.

About: I’ve grown up with many cats and different types of dog's. I had a dog that was 19 years old and have been self training my current dog since I got him. Im currently a student at Chico State so I have plenty of time after classes and school. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets after 2pm on most weekdays. I make sure there’s no way to escape or places that can hurt your pet if it gets in those places. I would make sure to be attentive and make sure I know what they’re up to.

About: I bring a lifetime of animal care experience to every pup I watch. From leading 4H swine projects to raising multiple dogs at a time, animals have always been part of my daily life. I have taken several animal care courses and have an EMT background, so I am confident handling everything from routine needs to unexpected situations. I also specialize in leash training and love working with both energetic puppies and gentle seniors. My friends laugh that I would make a great dog photographer because I cannot resist capturing their personalities and quirks. More than anything, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you are away. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I enjoy starting mornings with walks, building in play sessions in the afternoon, and winding down with cuddle time in the evenings. Whether it is a quick walk, training time, or just hanging out together, I love making sure each dog feels included in the rhythm of my day. When dogs stay with me for boarding or overnight care, they become part of my household. They get a comfortable place to rest, plenty of playtime, and regular walks built into the day. I make sure their routines are followed as closely as possible so they feel at home, whether that means a favorite toy at bedtime or a certain feeding schedule. For daily walks or playtime day dates, I focus on keeping them active, engaged, and safe. Walks include leash training reinforcement if needed, and playtime is all about burning off energy in a fun, positive way. I know how important this care is because I have been on the other end of the service myself. That experience drives me to give every pet loving attention, a safe environment, and peace of mind for their people while they are away.

About: Hello, I am thirty-four and I have had dogs and cats in my household and under my training throughout my life. I have been taking care of, leash training and social training friends and families pets for my adult life and, I have been on Rover since 2019 while I was living abroad in Spain. I have a passion for treating animals with respect, love and providing the exercise and stimulation necessary for them to live healthy, relaxed and well behaved lives in our homes. I have experience in leash training, off leash recall and obedience training, socialization, street safety and more. If you have special requests, please ask! Titus and I are very active, we run in Upper Park a few times a week so, if this is something your dog is trusted to do, let me know! I provide leashed walks and runs as well; those walks always come with basic training (loose leash walking, street safety, etc.) I would love to have the opportunity to give you peace of mind, knowing that your loved dog or cat gets the exercise attention needed during times that you can't offer it. I have a flexible work schedule that opens up all sorts of windows throughout my day, from morning to evening. With this schedule, along with being normally and naturally active (with an active dog), I have no problem creating time for your pet's needs. During check in visits, I can provide whatever is needed to help your pet feel secure and taken care of while you're away. Food, water, potty breaks, walks, play time, medication. Feel free to ask about any specifics.

About: I have worked with different types of animals for a long time. I’ve taught my furry friends to sit, shake, spin, bark, how to side, heel, etc. I’m familiar with different types of breeds. The most important thing I will do is ask those important questions to best support your furry friend when I walk or house visit. I am currently working at home so I have enough time to care for your pet while you are at work or are having a busy day. I am pretty active myself so taking your dogs for a walk or playing fetch with them would be effortless. I am always looking after my doggies so I will ensure a safety, trusting environment.

About: I enjoy the joy that dogs bring. I believe in the motto "who rescued who?" when dealing with adoption of dogs as well as caring for them. I feel I get more out of being around animals then they do. Their pure innocence and love warms my heart. They help you stay in healthy daily routines, feeding times and walking. Just like we need. So they are perfect companions. I love walking dogs in nature. I have cared for an epileptic dog who I miss so much. He needed pills twice a day that I put in pill pocket treats he ate up. Super open schedule though times are best booked in the afternoons. I look forward to caring for your precious pet dog while you are away. I care for your pets as if they are my own. Please provide all that your dog will need for me to care for them for the day, overnight or for a walk.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes, as I’ve owned a few dogs myself! I’m comfortable around dogs with different personalities and understand the importance of providing them with love, attention, exercise, and proper care. My childcare experience has also helped me become patient, responsible, and dependable. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!

I’m responsible, flexible, and happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and love. When caring for pets in their own home, I want to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’ll follow their usual routines for walks, feeding, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to adjust to what makes them feel most comfortable. Having owned dogs of different breeds and sizes myself, I understand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and dependable. My goal is to make every pet feel like they’re getting a little extra love while you’re away!
