About: I really enjoy being in the presence of dogs from young to old- from the smallest to the largest. I offer compassion, love and individualized attention for each animal and their specific needs. I have been around animals my whole life such as dogs, cats, horses, goats and chickens. I have personally owned labradors, German shepherds and Collies. I don’t think I have met a dog I haven’t liked 😀. I have a flexible schedule which makes me more available. I am available for drop ins, walks, etc. Whether it be a short walk or a long one, a brushing or some one on one attention...you have found the right person! Rest assured when your furry friend is with me. 🐕 💗 🐶 See you soon! I am able to care for your furry family member 7 days/week. I work away from the home and can allow for potty breaks every 4-8 hours. Whether it be for a drop in, walk, or some one-on-one attention, I have a flexible schedule that is accommodating for your fur baby. I live next to a park with plenty of room to stretch, walk, and a good game of fetch. I do my best to care for your pet as close as possible to what they are used to.
“Vivien has been walking our dog rocky for awhile now and I could not be happier with the care that she shows our dog!! She is great with communication and i am completely comfortable at work knowing rocky is in her care and I am SUPER picky about who cares for my dog when im not around.If you are looking for a dog walker she is it.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life all kinds of breeds and behaviors! I currently have 2 dogs of my own who I work on grooming, do lots of enrichment, cooperative care and dog sports with! I assist many classes at Canine Karma as well, so I am very familiar with dogs body language. I am currently in between jobs, and looking for something to do while I look! I prefer early mornings, and mid day, but my availability is flexible I know how worrisome it can be when other people are watching your dogs, I am very communicative and will do anything to make sure your dog is safe and comfortable!
About: I’ve been around any type of animal since I’ve remember. I’ll make sure your little fur balls are well taken care of under me and everything will be set. Super understanding and easy to get along with and I love to make bondings with them! I’m currently in college and go to class in the morning and get out around 12:30. After class ill be over and ready to take care of your fur babies. For my personal pets I make sure they are spoiled and are happy and in a clean area they have a big yard to run around and play in. For your fur balls I’d make sure to take them on a decently long walk on a good day or car rides if that’s what your dog likes! They will be spoiled with treats if they’re good for me and if I’m doing a dog sit at home I’ll make sure to play with them and make sure they don’t feel left out.
About: I have a love for all animals, no matter their size! I currently have a Black Lab and a Rottweiler of my own, so I’m experienced with larger breeds and understand the care, attention, and exercise they need. I also have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable following specific instructions, administering basic medications, and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and secure. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is loved and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, which allows me to be available for morning visits before work, evening visits after work, and flexible availability on weekends. I’m committed to being reliable and making sure each pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. In my client’s home, I do my best to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know I could never replace you, but I can be the next best thing! Whether that means breakfast served exactly on time, long walks, playtime, litter box duty, or giving endless belly rubs and head scratches, I’m happy to do it all. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, because I know being away from your furry family member can be hard!
“I have a broken foot and cannot walk my senior dog Dusty. I was leery to hire someone I didn't know. Mark was amazing with Dusty !. He got right down on the floor to greet and play with him. He even coaxed Dusty to take a longer walk. I highly recommend him for his positive and eager approach to dogs.”
About: I have been taking care of fur babies for 12 years. I have sat for friends and family. I have grown up around cats and dogs. I love seeing their own little personalities and quirks! I’m currently working part time, so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available on week days as well as the weekends. My shift is usually only five hours. They are usually from 6:30am-11:30am or 11:30am-4:30pm. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I respect any boundaries the client might have. I require a meet and greet to make sure your pets feel comfortable with me and will always update and send photos of your fur babies.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for years! Being from a small town, lots of friends and neighbors have trusted me to look after their dogs and cats while away on vacations. On top of this, I currently work as a full time nanny, which has taught me so many things such as reliability and responsibility- characteristics that directly translate to pet care. I am available for pet care on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the early mornings (before 10:00 a.m.) and again after 6:00 p.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am available after 3:00 p.m. I also have open availability all day on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and other pet care needs. For the most part I can be pretty flexible, so don’t hesitate to message me with specifics. When caring for a pet in a clients home, I feel it is most important to treat their home with respect and prioritize pet happiness!!

About: I am very patient, and dogs deserve our time. I used to volunteer at animal shelters throughout college, and I’ve helped my friends in taking care of their dogs. It’s more than just taking them outside and feeding them, they need companionship. I am currently venturing into my entrepreneurial journey. I have a lot of time on my hands, and I want to spend it how I want. Being with animals is at the top of my list! I live in a small, two bedroom apartment with my two cats and my man. I have a room dedicated to the cats (and my artwork). I have bins of toys and cat trees for their enrichment.
About: I have routinely watched my coworkers dogs while they are out of town, I have 3 dogs of my own and if I could I would take in every dog that needed a home, love and a warm spot to sleep. While I understand dogs are a product of their environment, I respectfully ask not to board Pit Bull terrier mix or Rottweiler breeds. Thank you. My pets have been treated with flea and tick prevention medication. I work Monday thru Wednesday and usually am home by 2. My boyfriend will stop by at lunch and let my 3 dogs out to potty. On my days off I am usually home. I have a fenced yard and 3 dogs of my home who are friendly and welcoming to new dogs. They are not crated but I can crate yours if you wish.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Genoa
Dylan has been amazing helping us work out a way to walk our dog Health issues have interrupted our daily routine which always included a walk with one or both of us. We elicited Dylan's help a month ago and now have him scheduled to walk our 135lb Golden retriever/Great Pyrenees dog, Rhys 2 days a week. It has already helped ease our mobility issues.Dylan was great adjusting to Rhys' insistence in how the walks were going to happen. Very patient and accommodating . Now, when Rhys sees his car on the road, he starts wagging his tail and gets excited when he turns into the driveway.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Genoa. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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.
