“Allison has been our dog walker for almost a year now. She never misses a day and is excellent at communicating. Rhuby loves her and we're so happy to have her come by every day :)”

About: We have taken care of dogs of all breeds. We will play with them, take them for walks, clean up after them, give them medication when needed. We will get them their meals on time everytime. We are currently retired, so we have plenty of time to spend caring for your pets. We love animals and would love to help you take care of yours. Your pet is one of your family members, just as my pets are my members of my family. Their safety and well being are of the upmost importance.

About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience! I grew up with multiple dogs and have spent years walking and caring for pets, including overnight stays. I’m comfortable with different routines, energy levels, and personalities—and I always make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. Mondays–Wednesdays are my off days and my most flexible time. I work Thursday–Sunday afternoons starting around 2, and my mornings are usually reserved for staying active—walks, workouts, or anything that gets me moving. I don’t have pets currently, but I’ve grown up caring for family and friends’ dogs and I’m comfortable with most breeds, prioritizing calm, safe, attentive care.
“Lisa continues to be a great caregiver for our dog! We have used her services on several occasions and will continue to for the future. She has great communication and you can tell she really cares!”

About: Someone should choose me to take care of their dog because I have been working with dogs since I was born! I volunteer for the humane society, and I am also trying to get a job with petsmart. I love all types of dogs, and when I lived in Minnesota I worked with a dog trainer and trained multiple German shepherds. I myself also have 3 big dogs, and I've had many puppies before. I'm very good at working with potty training where someone might not have the time because of work to potty train. I give every dog the attention that they need and I am willing to spend specific time with dogs who need it. I love dogs, and am willing to work with any breed!
About: I have been with Rover for four years, I’m learning a lot and having so much fun doing so. I enjoy using Rover to interact with dogs of all breeds and ages. I do have lots more previous experience before Rover but so far this has been the best experience with meeting new people and their dogs. I just recently earned a certificate in dog training with Animal behavioral college. It was a 18 month extensive program and I learned a lot with studying and hands on training. Message me for any questions you have about dog training. With all of my volunteer experience in shelters, and with my own pets, I am comfortable with giving medicine or following any special instructions. I have a fenced back yard with lots of space to run and play. We frequent all the local trails, no matter the weather, so if you need a tired dog, I am your go to Walker or doggie daycare provider! Message me for all your overnight/ extended stay questions. I also care for other animals, so please feel free to message me for cats, birds, exotics, reptiles, etc. I do this full time so my schedule is all about pet care! I set time for long dog walks, playtime, and I work with your feeding schedule. Pets always have water available to them, I keep my backyard tidy and poop free, dog friendly toys only, healthy treats, I stay on feeding schedules, safe walks, and I never leave your pet unattended with children or other animals.

About: I’m a friendly, reliable, and attentive animal lover with some hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. The dogs I cared for were older and required extra patience, medication awareness, mobility support, seizure knowledge and gentle daily care. The cats very classically needed their own space and freedom. In my lifetime I’ve owned three small/medium dogs, rabbits and a variety of small animals such as fish, turtles and hermit crabs. I understand the importance of consistency, routine, and compassionate attention for senior pets as well as playful younger animals. I bring strong responsibility, kindness, and energy shaped by my upbringing, and I treat every pet like family. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I have a very flexible schedule. My day-to-day life primarily includes managing my home and supporting church responsibilities, as my husband is a local pastor. I am most consistently busy on Sundays and some weekday evenings due to church services and events, but I still maintain flexibility even during those times when needed. Outside of that, I have open availability throughout the week, which allows me to provide dependable, attentive care for pets, including drop-ins, walks, and check-ins as needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and respect when caring for pets in a client’s home. I understand how important it is for pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment, and I follow all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine. I pay attention to details like feeding schedules, medication needs, leash safety, and secure doors and gates to ensure pets are always safe and accounted for. I treat each home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things clean, organized, and secure during every visit. I also want to note that I am not able to care for pets in my own home, as I do not have the space available, so all care will be provided in the client’s home where the pet is most comfortable.
About: Over my life, I have had a variety of animals in my care. Frogs, ducks, rats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, jumping spiders, birds, and turtles! Every animal that I’ve cared for has been well loved. I also work at a pet resort as a pet care attendant! I know how to administer medication if needed. I am currently working and going to school full time, but I have extra days during my week that i am free! I can visit your pets in between my classes and give them lots of love. My personal animals like to think they own my house… lots of cat trees and dog toys! My cats are well loved and need a little extra attention when it comes to brushing! I currently have two dogs, a pitbull cattle dog mix and a collie mutt mix! They love anything that squeaks and anything that has the word treat involved. They both require medication at different times of the day, so I have a little extra experience with pilling animals and applying ointments :)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 5 years, to include handicapped, young, and senior dogs. I also have 3 years of experience with caring for cats. I live in a single person apartment with access to a dog park and walking trails. I am home everyday of the week and work full time through Rover. I will be able to care for your pet the entire day and can take them out as needed. I live in a safe and quiet neighborhood that is very walkable. I am a 2 minute walk from a dog park which I can take your pet to daily.
About: I have worked in veterinary medicine for 8 years (6 years with Companion Animal Wellness Center and 2 years with Tender Touch Animal Hospital) and I also worked in animal rescue for two years at Pasado's Safe Haven. I love dogs of all kinds and enjoy learning about what they enjoy and how I can help them live happy and healthy lives! I've helped two clinics implement cat friendly practice standards and have a solid understanding of cat behavior. I am comfortable giving medications and know when medical care is needed. I am also a pet owner myself and understand how important it is that you be able to trust your pet caregiver to treat them like family! I am hoping to start a job with the school district here soon and so will be adjusting my schedule somewhat here soon :) Feel free to ask me if something will work!

“Absolutely fabulous. She brought her dog Jimmy and planned to leave him in her car, while she walked my Leo, but I asked her to take Jimmy with Leo if she thought she could handle two big dogs at once. She did. She could. My Leo had a great time and made a new friend. Perfect! The pictures were so adorable.”


About: I have always been an animal lover! I grew up with many pets and have been taking care of animals since I can remember. I spent my teen years volunteering at my local veterinary hospital and I am very knowledgeable about pet care. Rest assured, your furry friends will be in great hands with me! I have experience with puppies all the way up to senior dogs, so the care I will provide will always be tailored to each individual pup! I also have experience administering medications. Additionally, I am a military spouse so I have on base access for the military families seeking pet care as well:) I am a student at Olympic College so outside of class I have lots of free time for your pets! I am available every day of the week. Safety, trust, and quality of care are my biggest priorities when it comes to caring for your precious pets! My main focus is to ensure that your pet feels loved and cared for even when you are away.
About: I love dogs! I'm happy to reinforce any training as needed. I also love to take dogs on local adventures and walks in the surrounding areas. I'm currently a grad student and will be needing to make some extra money starting next month. I will be on a semi flexible schedule allowing for pet sitting and house sitting. I'm trustworthy and will follow through on any needs expressed. I appreciate clear and direct communication. If a specific request is unclear, I will ask.
“What an amazing treat for our 10 month old Labradoodle. This was the first time we've ever had anyone other than ourselves walk Bento. Tanesha immediately put us at ease and we could see that Bento was immediately drawn to her. It was so nice to come home and see his happy face, knowing that he had enjoyed a great walk when he otherwise would've been alone all day. After such a positive experience, we are hopeful to use her dog walking services again on a routine basis. Huge thank you to Tanesha for such a lovely experience. It's clear that she takes great pride in her work, and we feel very lucky to have found her.”

“James has been great. He's personable and knowledgeable. It took a time or two for Freckles to warm up to him because she's pretty shy at first, but now she's excited when she sees him coming and is more than ready to walk.”

Gilberton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Maddie was amazing! She walked my pup Oakley every day while I traveled to Central America. She was timely, reliable, communicative and made sure my roommate didn’t feel unsafe or intruded on when picking Oakley up for her walk. I’ll definitely book with her again!

Anna is a passionate and dedicated pet lover and dog walker. She genuinely adores my pup and is able to accommodate my dog's weird quirks and social/separation anxiety. My dog can be a handful sometimes and Anna is well equiped to handle any and all situations! I know my dog is safe and happy during all of her walks. Anna is quickly becoming her favorite person.
