âJames is awesome. He did a meet and greet with both of my dogs prior to the walk and was understanding when I was late due to traffic. He has a calm demeanor and understands the importance of giving an anxious dog their space. My dogs did great on a walk with him, and he made sure that they were safe. My anxious dog actually approached and sniffed him after the walk, and even took some treats from him which is a big deal for her. I highly recommend James to anyone!â

âIzel is excellent! He is such an easy going person, great to talk to, and great with our dogs! My youngest pup has high anxiety, but he sat down on the ground with her and she started to warm up to him. He is accommodating and understanding, definitely recommend him!â

About: Hi! Iâm a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have my own cat and have grown up with dogs ever since I was little. I also dog-sat for friends and neighbors throughout high school and college. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take pride in providing patient, loving, and reliable care so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while youâre away. I work a full time 8-5 job and am available to check on your pet during my lunch hour (if close enough), after 5pm and on weekends! I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a clientâs home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive plenty of attention, and get exercise or playtime based on their needs. For dogs, this includes walks, outdoor time, and play, while for cats I focus on feeding, litter box care, play, and quiet companionship.
âScott was Pierogi's dog walker for almost a year and did an excellent job every time. Very trustworthy and thorough and you can tell he cares. He's a true professional and if I weren't moving to NJ I'm sure he would be my dog walker for much longer. Highly recommend.â

âMy dog Lucy enjoyed her walk with Rebekah so much! It was great how Rebekah communicated everything with us during and after the walk. I will be booking her again and I highly recommend her for any type of dogs. My dog is 60 lbs and she handled her very well.â


âShakil is very personable and accommodating. He was able to walk our dog at the last minute and came the night before to meet her. Looking forward to booking him again in the future!â

âBenjamin was very friendly and great with our dog. He had excellent communication which was very reassuring. My dog Maki took a huge liking to him. Benjamin seemed like a big dog lover; heâs good at directing him with commands and treats. He also was very good at understanding my dogs body language and took extra steps to make sure we were all comfortable before their first walk.â

About: iâve raised dogs since i was a little girl. my family has raised a couple puppies so iâm very familiar with dogs throughout the developmental lifespan. I absolutely love animals with all my heart and have a super soft spot for dogs, I would love to hangout with yours! I can train puppies minimally depending on what the training is, and I will always provide the best service I can! I currently have a serving job and I am a college student, I usually work 3 days a week so I will be present a majority of the time. In case I am at work my boyfriend is always home to watch the pups, I donât leave them without supervision. I have a pretty flexible and free schedule, even for last minute appointments I live in a super pet friendly complex. There is a dog park, trail within the complex, and even a dog spa! I would be more than happy to give your fur baby a little spa day and as much playtime as we can get in.
About: My husband Melvyn and I love dogs and were dog owners for many years. We provide lots of love, walks and playtime. Currently, we do not have our own dog, but promise to make your pet feel like he's part of the family. We have an empty nest, so there are no children in the house. I work full-time, but my husband is home during the day. We doggie sit for family members whenever we can. I prefer to do a meet and greet so your dog will feel at home when he/she is dropped off to us. This also provides the opportunity for owners to discuss the dog's preferences. We will provide daily pictures as well. Please be sure to bring along your dog's favority toy and food. I am a virtual teacher and work from home. My husband is retired. This provides us the opportunity to be with our furry friends all day! I have a fenced in yard. I love taking long walks, too. We keep plenty of toys for our own pets as well as our furry guests.
âThank you so much, Aaliyah! We were very happy with your service and the way you took care of Soda. We felt completely at ease during our absence thanks to your presence with our daughter. We truly appreciate your kindness and professionalism. We highly recommend you!â

âStormee is AMAZING! I am a first time Rover user and had to use it under different circumstances. My boyfriend injured his lower back last night and is not able to move at all let alone get up to walk his dog. I am currently in SC so I was unable to walk him myself. With one message to Stormee explaining the situation she was MORE than willing to help! She got right over there, let herself in (per instructed to do so), and took Wesson on a nice long walk! He must have had a blast too because he was very sad when she left lol!!! He watched her from the window lol oh! She even filled his food and water bowl for him since my boyfriend can't get up. She really went above and beyond and it was EXTREMELY appreciated! Thank you a million times, Stormee! You saved the day!â

âCannot recommend more highly Yanela. She has taken loving, thoughtful care of my animals, both dog and cat. Her communication to me was amazing, through both photos and detailed descriptions. She manages the normal day to day no problem as well as any difficult times with experience and awareness. She is an animal lover and beautiful person! Very positive and supportive tooâ

âI had a fantastic experience with Karen. She is friendly and calm with my nervous dog Luna, which made a huge difference for her first walk with a new person. I really appreciated how Karen took the time to ask thoughtful questions about Luna's routine, quirks, and comfort level before heading out. It was clear Karen genuinely cares about making the walk a positive experience. Highly recommend!â

About: Iâve cared for a few different types of animals, including cats (especially elderly), small dogs, hamsters, bunnies and reptiles. Iâm very comfortable with taking care of these types of animals! I am currently a full time student with internship, I am not working so I have a lot of free time to care for pets, especially at night. I will care for pets however the client prefers their pet to be cared for. Every pet is different and has different needs, I will do my best to make sure they are as comfortable and safe as possible.
âMaria is great! My dog loves her, she is always happy to see her for her walks. Maria refills my dogs water and is prompt with her walks. You will be very happy with Maria!â

Malinda is very reliable and neighbors have told me how good she is on the walks. My puppy doesn't show signs that she felt neglected since Malinda actually spends time with her. In the morning when I go to work Mindy doesn't fight going in her crate cause she knows Malinda was coming. So I know that Mindy appreciates the time with Malinda.
