My approach is rooted in kindness, patience, and a deep understanding of each dog’s individual needs, with a strong focus on mental wellbeing.

Current availability for walking: 10:30am to 1pm, and 3pm to 5:30pm Monday through Friday. Exceptions can be made to accommodate needs. Please inquire for availability. Current availability for pet sitting: 7am-7pm Saturday & Sunday Available for check-ins vary, depending on location. Availablility varies depending on current schedule. Please inquire for availability. I cater to every pet parents need for their pets. From basic check-ins to more intensive care of administering medication, and special needs for disabled/elderly pets, ensuring trust and safety in all environments and varying situations.

“This is my first experience using Rover and I feel like I lucked out immediately finding Paulena. My dog (and mom) loved her. Paulena is communicative and kind. I’ll definitely book with her again. Thank you!”

About: Of all animals I have the most experience with dogs. I love dogs all shapes and sizes We've always had a dog at home and I have lots of experience, caring for playing with and walking dogs, including bath time. I'm a recent graduate of heritage high school. I took agriculture at school and worked with the animals on our school farm I'm looking to do rover as often as possible. I don't have any other obligations at this time. So I can dedicate myself to your pets. I am very careful about fences and doors. I'm mindful of owner instructions regarding where their pets can be. And where they are not allowed. I am mindful of them while they are eaten. And while they are playing, to make sure that they remain safe. I checked the pavement before I take a dog out on walks to make sure it's not too hot and always make sure to wash their bowls so that I can help prevent bacteria

“Kimberly is the BEST!! Our two dogs absolutely love her! She is very communicative, prompt, and so sweet with the dogs. We are very grateful that we have found her!”

About: I have over 30 years of experience with dogs and cats that were just born babies to fully grown and elderly. Growing up, my family would take in pets whos owners had past away. This included many different breeds, but also most of them were elderly that needed some extra love and care. I also had my own range of pets from fish to frogs to mice to geckos growing up and of course cats and dogs. I have 6 years as a desert tortoise biologist and love all kinds of pets. I recently started a part time job, so I am flexible and mostly at the house. I am able to board pets starting from 5pm to 8pm and can start daycare for most days at 7am. We have a yard with a fenced off runner and a separate grassy area for your pups to play in and do their business. We do have a cat, but we have a gate that can separate the upstairs from the downstairs. We have plenty of room for kennels or crates if your fur baby needs them.

About: I’ve assisted with dog sitting alongside my mom and grandma, helping with playtime, and companionship. I’m patient, attentive, and following routines to ensure dogs feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have flexible availability as I am unemployed and already care for my own two cats and two bearded dragons daily. I provide attentive care in peoples homes, following routines closely. As an owner of two cats and two bearded dragons, I’m experienced with safety, cleanliness, and gentle handling.

About: Hello, I am a long time caregiver who grew up raising purebred golden retrievers and also fostering both cats and dogs with my family. I have 3 years experience working as a kennel attendant in an animal hospital where I would feed, water, clean, walk, medicate and play with an average of 5-10 dogs per day (20-30 if it’s a holiday) feeding them 2x and day with 3 walks per day. I love working with animals, it’s my passion and I’m very aware of animal body language and what to look for when they may need some space. I also have a small collection of plants and am very comfortable watering your plants while you are away if needed! I don’t currently have a pet and I am missing the pet owner life! I’m available all day any day to care for your pet. I am very vigilant and responsible with all animals. I live with my parents so it will not just be me in the home, there will be eyes on your fur baby at all times.

About: So i’ve dealt with dogs since I was kid. I pop in to take care of my parents dogs from time to time which is a tiny mutt and a husky. Currently I own a inu, but I do have experience with dealing with dogs of all sizes. I genuinely have a love for them. I am extremely patient and caring as well as careful. So i’m usually available most of the week to take care of dogs. I try to walk my own dog daily, and i make sure there is food and water. Generally daily walks and just basic care works for my dog, but I have taken care of other’s people’s dogs that did require more care or more attention. I’m generally a fast learner and very attentive to my dog’s needs and others.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for pets with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and quirks. Whether your fur baby is a professional couch potato, a four-legged tornado, or somewhere in between, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and little things that make them comfortable. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, exercise, playtime, and, of course, plenty of attention and belly rubs. I’m also comfortable caring for pets who need a little extra patience or supervision. My goal is simple: while you’re away, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while they wait for their favorite human to return. I’m currently a full-time student, but most of my classes are online, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time. This allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and giving your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get the care and companionship they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and make sure they feel comfortable with me and their surroundings. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could create a safety concern. I also keep you updated while you’re away and am happy to send photos or check in so you know your pet is doing well. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.

About: I will be available during the holidays. Please let me know your dates and needs and I will be happy to work something out. Had dogs all my life and cared for them in all sorts of situations; medications and therapy walks. Monitored them after surgery and held them down for medications they hated. Walked them, ran with them, biked with them and laid down with them. I enjoy animals and I want to spend as much time as I can with them. I will CARE for your pets. They will have fun while I am there. When I had my dog I had a fenced yard with a doggie door for access to the house. I sat with him during thunderstorms and took care of him after ACL surgery. We played ball three times a week or more. He endured my short lived biking phase. He loved the convertible and hated the sedan. I think of him every day.

About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked as a pet sitter for three different families. During that time, I cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. My responsibilities included feeding, providing companionship, administering basic care, and following each family’s specific routines and instructions. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love spending time walking, playing, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I keep the environment clean, provide fresh water, monitor their well-being, and give them attention. I believe clear communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit.

About: Growing up my neighbors and family friends knew I adored animals and I was responsible and reliable so I always took care of their animals on summer breaks for them! I am currently a stay at home mom and I care for my 16 year old poodle mix and my 6 month old chihuahua. I have a gated court yard and backyard. I have a gated courtyard with turf grass dog friendly and two other dogs to keep your dogs company. We also have a dog park in my community that my dogs frequent and I have a crate in case this is needed for your dog for training purposes.

“Ludwika walked my lab Stella for over 2 months 3 times a week, Stella would get so excited when she saw her coming up the walk way. Very prompt, very polite & highly recommended. Book walks with Ludwika if you want your pup to have a wonderful experience!”

About: Reliable pet sitter with home visits and in-home boarding experience, walking, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, homes, and keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently working part time but free any time in the morning on weekdays until 9am and weekends until 12 or 3pm. I’m free after 3pm on Mondays and Fridays. But I can make anything work, I love pet sitting!!! My backyard is fenced so my little pup is safe. I have a tracking collar in case anything happens, but I follow each pet’s routine, make sure they’re fed on time, get walks or playtime, stay comfortable, and always feel safe, calm, and loved.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 7 years, including my 4 cats and a bearded dragon who are very friendly and chill. I also pray for and feed the stray animals in my neighborhood because I care deeply about their well-being. I treat my pets like my children—I make sure they’re fed, bathed, and always feel safe and loved. I can’t be away from them for too long because they need me, and honestly, I need them too. Animals mean the world to me, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love, attention, and care. You can trust they’ll be safe and happy in my hands. Please do not request me if you are not nearby, thank you 🙏🏽I’m usually available on weekends, and during the week I’m free after 11am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On all other weekdays, I’m available starting at 9 AM. I’m flexible and always happy to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the pets in my care. I have a calm, pet-safe home with 4 loving cats—two love being around me all the time, while the other two prefer quiet, hidden spots to rest. I also have a proper setup for my bearded dragon. I can easily separate animals if needed. Whether in your home or mine, I follow all care instructions carefully, keep things clean, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and deeply cared for with gentle, one on one attention. - The reason I'm providing low prices is because I'm new to Rover and I'd like to keep quality pet care within reach of as many families as possible while I build up my profile and nice reviews. Not because I provide low-quality service—I want you to feel assured and at ease in hiring me to look after your pets, knowing they'll receive trustworthy and loving attention without going over your budget.

About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds for over 21 years. My wife and I have been lucky to have been parents to 5 dogs. We currently have two but we have had up to 4 at one time 🤗. They've all lived long lives even though 2 passed from cancer. We still take in strays and make every effort to get them back to their homes. I ensure our pets have regular visits to the vet, eat good food, and are groomed regularly. I gently train them to be well behaved members of our pack. I love all animals and believe they should be treated well. I am retired and have plenty of time to walk and play with them on a daily basis basis. I look forward to making sure your fur babies get plenty of exercise and fun. I have a fenced yard on almost an acre of land with plenty of room to play and explore. Our two dogs are friendly while one is laid back and the other is a little more active and curious.
