“I reached out to Alison when I was sick and unable to walk my dog, Ace, and she responded right away. She was kind, friendly, and very reliable throughout the booking. Ace absolutely loved her—every time he came back from a walk, he didn't even want to come back inside! It gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker. 🐾💕”
About: I've cared for dogs, including mine, for as long as I can remember! In doing so, I've been responsible for feeding, walking, bathing, and sometimes even grooming said dogs, of which all owners have said that I did an excellent job! In my transition to college, I have a month where I'll be given all the free time in the world, which makes it the perfect opportunity to give some pet owners their well-deserved free time as well! I have one 45-pound female dog who loves running in our fenced backyard! Additionally, we have a dog park only a few blocks away, giving us even more room to run and play! Whenever we aren't home, we have a nice crate that our dog stays in with peaceful music playing in the background in case she gets anxious!

“Kennedy did great! She came over a few days earlier to meet Tofi. On the day of the walk she did all we asked her to do, even with Tofi being reluctant to take a long walk, she hanged out with her and made sure she had water and treats.”

“My Chewy immediately fell in love with Jennifer during our meet and greet. And he instantly connected with her. I knew right there and then that she was the perfect dog walker for him. And she did not disappoint. Chewy came so happy from his walk and she took the cutest pictures of him for his report card.”
About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years through both owning and pet sitting. I’ve owned Goldendoodles and Cavapoos, giving me firsthand experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and daily care needs. I also gained valuable experience dog sitting for a family in Union with an Australian Shepherd and Chihuahua mix, where I was responsible for feeding, walking, playing, and maintaining their routines. I’m able to adapt quickly to each dog’s unique schedule and personality, and I’m attentive to their body language and behavior so I can recognize when they’re feeling anxious, sad, excited, or need extra comfort. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have had dogs of my own until I moved away for college, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I make it a personal goal to provide every pet with the same love, attention, and consistency they receive at home. I’m happy to follow each dog’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure while you’re away. I trained my own dogs alongside a professional trainer, so I’m familiar with many common training cues and commands and can help reinforce good behavior. I’m attentive to dogs’ body language and emotions, allowing me to recognize when they need space, reassurance, play, or extra care. I will always treat your furry family member with patience, kindness, and the same love I would give my own pets.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a lifelong dog lover and a proud dog mom myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. What sets me apart is the personal attention and genuine care I provide. I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and truly at home. I’m patient with puppies and energetic dogs who need extra playtime and attention, and I’m equally happy caring for older or more relaxed dogs who prefer a quieter environment and a slower pace. I take the time to learn your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking habits, favorite activities, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to care for your fur baby the same way I would want someone to care for my own, like part of the family. I’m a real estate agent with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. I’m able to provide plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love and companionship. Since I have dogs of my own, pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while staying with me! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where they can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and playtime, as well as a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and any special needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take the time to help each pet feel comfortable and adjust at their own pace. I have two friendly dogs of my own who are used to sharing their home, but I also have the ability to keep them separate from guest dogs if needed. This allows me to accommodate dogs who may prefer their own space or need a calmer environment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while staying in my home.
About: I’ve loved animals from a young age, caring for my neighbors’ dogs growing up and having a dog and cats of my own at different points in my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with love, attention, walks, playtime, and care. Mondays and Fridays are my best weekday availability, but I can also make other weekdays work depending on the timing and your pet’s needs. I’m also available on weekends with advance notice. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect their routines and boundaries, and provide plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Elizabeth
Kathleen was a great walker for my pup!! She helped me with 2 walks for my dog on a day I had to go into my office. I really appreciated her communication around both walks. We even had some problems with the door codes I created for her to get into my building not working and she was super understanding and flexible to work around the issue. She asked questions to make sure my dog would be comfortable and taken care of and delivered on everything! She is so nice she even replaced the poop bag with my backup role because it ran out on the second walk. Will definitely book again!!!!
Hazel was an exceptional dog walker, and I highly recommend her. She was consistently reliable, punctual, and dependable, giving me complete peace of mind. Most importantly, she handled my very difficult dog with remarkable patience and compassion. She took the time to understand my dog's personality and built trust through consistency and care, even when walks were challenging. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog Flash's well-being and always went above and beyond to ensure they were safe, exercised, and comfortable. If you're looking for someone trustworthy who can confidently handle even the most challenging dogs, Hazel is an excellent choice.
I can’t recommend this dog walker highly enough! They are reliable, caring, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. My dogs are always excited to see them and come home happy, well exercised, and relaxed after every walk. If you’re looking for someone compassionate to care for your pets, I would absolutely recommend them.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
