My pup is still getting used to unfamiliar people walking him outside. Rachel’s shown a lot of patience as they get to know each other more and he’s warming up little by little. I’m so glad I found her to help out.

First time meet and greet. Moe was skiddish, as expected but warmed up to Daniel pretty quickly and let him take for a nice walk. Was on time, respectful, and courteous.

About: Hi, I’m Yari! I’ve grown up and cared for pets my entire life. I have a 12-year old beagle-mix pup 🐶 who loves naps and going on sniffaris. 💚 I have cared for dogs and cats with separation anxiety, leash pulling, and reactivity from ages ranging from puppies to seniors. I’m familiar with basic obedience training and positive reinforcement techniques. I’m experienced in administering oral medications and managing complex feeding schedules. 🩷 Every pet gets personalized attention. Whether your dog has high energy and needs a long, brisk walk, or your cat prefers quiet companionship and feather wand playtime, I adapt my visits to your pet's needs. 🩵 For walks: I follow your routines explicitly to ensure a stress-free experience. I avoid off-leash areas, enforce strict safety measures on walks, and practice safe socialization. 🧡 For house-sitting: I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I provide regular updates and photos through the Rover app so you have total peace of mind while you are away. 💛 Please feel free to ask any questions :) I’m currently working from home part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m available weekdays and weekends during the mornings (10am-12pm), midday (12pm-2pm) and afternoon/night (2pm to 10pm) for walks and drop-ins. I also offer overnight stay both during the weekdays and weekends with dedicated morning and evening pet time. I request a meet and greet before accepting to take care of your pet at your home to align on expectations. In this meet and greet, we would review your pet’s daily routine, dietary needs, medication schedules, and behavioral quirks. Also discuss home access, safety measures, and disclosing security cameras or household staff who may come by during the visit. For house-sitting, I will ensure consistent communication by sending 2-3 updates per day with photos and summaries of how your pet ate, their bathroom habits, and how they behaved. I will also treat your residence with respect.

Nima did a fantastic job walking our Oli and I highly recommend her. She is punctual, professional, and extremely loving to all of our pets! Nima was also flexible with scheduling and willing to accommodate our (Oli’s) needs when we needed to modify the booking. She was also extremely patient when our Oli was being stubborn on walks or potty breaks, which we greatly appreciated, especially the photos of their walks when he was serving serious diva face! 😂 We will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future and cannot recommend her enough!

About: I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including a special love for senior animals. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with special needs and I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they need—whether that means slower routines, medication support, or just a calm, comforting presence. I’m also experienced with more independent or “spicy” cats and dogs through my time volunteering at a local animal shelter, and know how to read their boundaries, build trust at their pace, and make them feel safe without forcing interaction. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time and intentionally build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. This allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I also like to set clear expectations with owners ahead of each visit so I can make sure I’m meeting their preferences and providing consistent, reliable care. I am happy to accommodate all requests according to individual pet's needs after a conversation with the pet owner! Any questions or requests, feel free to reach out :)

About: I have lots of love for all types of animals! I know as a pet owner the deep bond and love we have for our fur babies. And sometimes we need someone to trust to take care of our babies while we are away! As a sitter I will ensure you don’t have to worry while you’re away and make sure your pet is happy and receives the best care :) I currently work a part-time job and have room in my schedule to be able to spend time and care for your pet! I’m usually available in the mornings and some days at night. I will ensure your pet is nice and safe so you don’t have to worry at all while you are away! I will be closely monitoring and spending time with them.

About: I had pets growing up-- a dog and a hamster. I used to cat sit (check-in, feed, and play) for my friend in high school. I also walked dogs for my friends in college, and have had my own cat for the past three years! I work part time and am a grad student, but only have one class-- so I am available weekends, Tuesdays and Thursdays. These days I can do visits and walks any time of day! I don't have a car so I am limited to places I can easily reach by public transportation, but I will take care of your pets the same way you would. I understand what it's like needing someone else to care for you pet and want to make sure your mind is at ease while you are away.

About: Growing up. I had five dogs. Four of them lived up to 14 and 15 years of age. One of them still lives with my sister and it’s currently nine years old. All my life I’ve had experience with dogs and even cared for them up until their senior stage. Even though my dogs are no longer with me, my love for pets still lives on. I recently just finished College, and work less days in my job. So I’m free a lot of the time now, which will help me provide an organized routine for pets. Whether that’s is feeding them, walking them, and spending time with them. When I had my dogs, I would take them outside to my backyard and stay with them until they were finished, and then they were able to walk up the stairs and go back inside. When caring for a pet in your home, I will be sure to do the same and take precautionary measures that are needed to ensure that your fur baby is safe. As well as follow any rules instructed.

We had a fantastic experience with Tom and can’t recommend him enough. He stepped in on short notice to help take care of our husky, Talc, and completely exceeded our expectations. He was reliable, communicative, and took the time to understand Talc and make him as comfortable as possible. We were especially happy to hear such positive feedback about Talc’s behavior while we were away – it showed how well Tom connected with him. We’ll certainly be reaching out again next time we need a dedicated and trustworthy dog walker for Talc. Thank you!
