“Samantha is very responsible and careful about her communication. You can tell a real love of animals and people are at the root of her choice to do dog walking. I think you will appreciate her services.”


About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life—growing up with big dogs and now sharing my home with three little ones of my own. I genuinely love caring for dogs and spending time with them—it’s second nature to me. One of my favorite things is seeing how excited and happy dogs get when it’s time for a walk! I also have experience giving medication, including pills, thanks to my schnauzer who has allergies. Whether it’s a quick visit or a fun stroll around the neighborhood, I’m here to give your pup the love and attention they deserve. I’m retired Air Force and loving this chance to spend more time with the animals I adore. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits during late mornings, lunch hours, and early afternoons on weekdays. Weekends are a bit more limited, but I’m still happy to help when I can! Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a quick potty break, or some one-on-one attention, I’m here to make their day a little brighter. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a dog owner with a lively pack of three, I’m very experienced in managing multiple dogs and understanding different personalities and energy levels. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously—whether it’s a solo visit or a group walk. I always follow your instructions, practice safe leash handling, and make sure every pet feels calm, loved, and secure. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and the peace of mind that your furry friend is in experienced, caring hands.
“Yaretzi is wonderful. She’s a great communicator, punctual and so great with our Australian Shepherd, Sadie. She can get very excited for her walk and Yaretzi handles it with such patience. Highly recommended her!”

“Genniver is EXCELLENT AND A LIFESAVER! She was so accommodating with my schedule, and did an incredible job keeping me up-to-date with my fur baby. Her communication was really good, and I felt at ease while she walked my dog. Would recommend her 1000x. Thanks so much!!!”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from big farm animals to small animals like cats and dogs! I am a dog dad myself, and my lil buddy and I enjoy going out for walks, meeting new people, and just enjoying life. Whether your pet is big or small, playful or calm, I will do my best to make them happy and safe while they are in my care. Taking care of my lil buddy and other furry friends is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, scheduled feeding times, or play sessions, I build my day around making sure the pets in my care feel comfortable, loved, and engaged. I enjoy the consistency and joy that caring for animals brings, and I’m attentive to their unique needs. Whether I’m working from home or managing errands, I prioritize pet check-ins, exercise, and quality time throughout the day and week. I treat every pet like a member of the family—whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in theirs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any medications or special care they need. In a client’s home, I make sure their pet feels safe and relaxed in their familiar environment while respecting the space and keeping everything clean and tidy. My goal is always to provide consistent, loving care so pets feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether they are full of energy or just like to relax and snuggle, I will provide the best care possible.
“Gihan is the best. She was super sweet, and took great care of my pups. She also sent over a bunch of pictures which is always great. :) Definitely going to reach out to her again next time I need help with pups. Thanks again for all your help, Gihan!!”

“Nashira was quick to respond at the last minute to walk my sweet doggie and even came a day early to meet her! Very much appreciated. I will definitely contact her again!”

About: I’ve cared for my dog for 5 years now and my cat for 11 years. My neighbors and family always call on me to watch their pets when they are out of town including stopping by and house sitting when needed. I have always loved all furry friends and even wanted to be a vet when I was little! I am a full time college student so in the summers I need something to fill my free time! I love staying active and doing something productive in my days and what is better than caring for some furry friends! In my home we have a fenced in backyard with locks on the gates. When taking my dog out we always have a leash on with a firm grip. This will apply to all the clients I see as their dogs care and safety is the number one priority. All pets will have my full attention at all times.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed and personality. With over five years of hands-on pet care experience—including time assisting in a veterinary clinic—I’ve gained valuable skills in reading animal behavior, administering medications, and supporting post-surgical recovery. Friends, neighbors, and family members have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with both affection and professionalism. Whether it’s energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra care, I’m prepared and passionate about giving pets the attention they deserve. Im currently working a part time job so the days im off or the time before work or after if working mornings will fit into my schedule perfectly! I like to keep my dogs on a constant schedule, whoever we go on walks I make sure their harness fits right and the pavement is never to hot, even when relaxing I like to make sure their toys are safe and that my pups are always comfortable.
“Demetria had great communication and kept us informed about everything that happened along the walk. We had a little injury and she gave some good advice on how to keep the wound clean. We are so grateful for her help! I know our dog was always super happy to see her for walks.”

About: I've had experience with labradors as family pets for roughly 10 years. From their interesting bathing routines to their high energy bursts I understand the struggles! I also have experience with small dogs and australian shepherds. I am currently focusing on dog walking but I am more than willing to accommodate to other pet necessities. I am a full time RN which means I work 3 nights a week. Pet care will be doable for about 4 times a week! My schedule is flexible so it is not consistent every week but I am available to go for early and midday walks. I am willing to accommodate pet care should I be free to do so! I will follow the pet owners routine so that they are not confused in the change of care. I will do my best to stay consistent and to practice their upmost safety.
About: I’ve shared life with my dog across three countries, and my love for dogs has only grown stronger. With 10 years of experience as a dog groomer, I combine professional care with genuine affection for every pup I meet. I work part-time in the afternoons/evenings, so mornings are perfect for walks and playtime. For boarding or home care, your pup will always have company with our friendly little pack. Your dog’s safety comes first. Whether at your place or mine, they’ll enjoy a loving environment, a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood, and the warmth of a true dog-loving family.
Encino Ranch dog parents share their Rover experiences
Megan is a delight! And from our conversations I can tell she is very knowledgeable about pet health and interactions. I felt very secure in trusting her with my dog for walks. And when I offered her a spray that can be used with any aggressive unsupervised dog, she said she had her own in case it was necessary. I think you will find her a very safe walker.
