Dog Walking Gum Branch

About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide dependable, loving, and personalized care that pets and owners can trust. My background includes caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, puppies, senior pets, high-energy breeds, and pets with unique routines or special needs. Growing up around animals and spending years working closely with them has taught me how to read pet behavior, create a calm environment, and build trust quickly. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the genuine connection I create with every animal. I treat each pet like family not just another appointment. I focus on safety, reliability, communication, and making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication administration, or overnight care, I go above and beyond to give owners peace of mind and pets the attention they deserve. I will be available all summer full time from June- August as I am a high school teacher during the year. If needed I can also continue working part time during the school year. I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where pets are treated like part of the family. In my home, pets receive constant supervision, structured routines, plenty of playtime, exercise, and individualized attention based on their personality and needs. Safety is always my top priority I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space, closely monitor interactions, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so owners always feel informed and comfortable while away. As a pet owner myself with a friendly golden retriever puppy, I understand the importance of trust, patience, and proper care. My puppy is well-socialized and helps create a fun, welcoming environment for visiting pets while still respecting each animal’s comfort level and boundaries. With over 10 years of hands-on pet experience, I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone pet owners can truly count on for peace of mind.

About: Hey there, I'm Joyce and I've been taking care of my neighbors and friends animals for most of my life (25+ years). I am partial to dogs, but guess who can change a litter box too? Me! I also love cats and other critters. I also use Rover when I'm out of town, so I know what it's like. I hold high standards for myself and the care of your pet(s). Your pet will be treated like my own (I have 3), with respect and a lot of love! I'm looking for part-time work as I want to go back to school this fall. I love animals , the outdoors, and a good walk! (I have limited availability on the weekends, please inquire and we may be able to make it work!) Overnight stays: I will try to spend as much time at your house as you want me to, but I may have a few errands to run during the day and make sure my own dogs stretch their legs too. In your home, I'm a well-mannered guest. I don't have to stay in your home if you don't need me to. Your animals will be treated with respect.

“Such an amazing person. Took care of my baby perfectly an was amazing at communicating with me.”

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs for about 2 years. I have a dog of my own she is a handful but my whole world 🥹. I would love to be of help to anyone I can. I work part time at a grocery store. I mainly work nights so I get off anywhere between 9 and 11pm. So when trying to schedule check ins I would recommend scheduling the first check in later in the morning so there is less time in between each check in. I have a fenced in yard it’s fairly large enough room to run and play if needed I feel confident in my abilities to safely get your dog in a crate

About: I grew up with dogs from Shih-tzus to Rottweilers, puppy to senior, even one with pancreatitis! Your pet will be cared for with much love! I am currently working part-time and about to start online college classes! I will be available all throughout the week unless I have to work! All pets will follow the daily routine you have set for them with just a little extra love and care. Anything to make them happy!

About: Experienced & Trustworthy. Walks, Feeding, Playtime & Lots of Love. Medication Administration (if needed). Your pet will be cared for like family while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I am able to plan visits around consistent morning, afternoon, and evening routines. I’m flexible and can accommodate feeding times, walks, and check-ins as needed. I’m also available for weekends and can adjust for special requests. This allows me to provide reliable, consistent care while meeting each pet’s routine. Follow instructions and keep the pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and rest. Provide daily exercise, playtime, fresh water, and clean-up to maintain a healthy environment. Monitor the behavior and health, and give medication as directed if needed. Keep the home safe and clean, communicate updates to humans and provide attentive, loving care.

“Elizabeth communicated very well and stayed in touch throughout the visit/walk. She was patient and understanding with my dog. Highly recommend.”

“We needed someone to walk our GSD at lunchtime for us. My daughter suggested using the Rover app. We were so lucky to have found Chloe! Hey and my fur baby hit it right off. Chloe is absolutely wonderful! Very prompt and great communication ! We appreciate all she does for us and our Jameson, we asked her to dog sit as well. She loves our fur baby and she loves her too! Thank you Chloe!!!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every animal. I don’t believe in simply stopping by to feed and leave. I take the time to build trust, learn each pet’s routine, and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, high energy breeds, and multi pet households. I’m also comfortable caring for farm animals such as chickens, goats, rabbits, and other small livestock. Whether your pet needs an active walk, medication, extra patience, or just plenty of love and attention, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, healthy pet and have complete confidence that they were treated like family every step of the way. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine, not something I try to fit in between other commitments. I intentionally schedule my day to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company, I make sure their routine stays as consistent as possible. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable, especially while their owners are away, and I always strive to provide a calm, dependable, and stress free experience for both pets and their families. Every pet has different needs, so I tailor my care to match their normal routine and your instructions. In your home, I work to keep your pet’s schedule as consistent as possible by following their feeding routine, providing exercise, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship. I also respect your home by keeping it clean, bringing in mail or packages if requested, watering plants, and making sure everything is secure while you’re away. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. They receive regular potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, and lots of attention in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I provide updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay.

“April is awesome. She was easy to communicate with and asked a lot of valid questions in order to provide our dogs with the best care. The dogs enjoyed her company and she gave us peace of mind while we were away.”

“Allana exceeded expectations and helped put my mind at ease while my dog was home alone. She's an excellent communicator with prompt responses. Will definitely utilize her again in the future if a situation arises.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and understand the responsibility that comes with earning a dog’s trust. Daily walks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and learning each dog’s unique personality have become part of everyday life for me. While I’m new to Rover, I’m committed to providing dependable, energetic, and personalized care for every dog I meet. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they get the exercise and attention they deserve. I’m currently available for dog walks between 8:00 AM and 2:00 PM most days. But I’m open to negotiate times as needed! Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a longer adventure, or a run to burn off extra energy, I’m happy to customize every outing based on your dog’s age, fitness level, and your preferences! Your dog’s safety is always my first priority. Before every walk, I’ll make sure collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure. I’ll pay close attention to your dog’s comfort, energy level, and the weather, making sure they always have opportunities to rest and hydrate when needed. I believe every dog deserves patience, encouragement, and plenty of positive interaction. Whether your pup is energetic and adventurous or calm and curious, I’ll make sure they have a safe, enjoyable experience from start to finish. You’ll also receive photo updates after every walk because I know how much owners love seeing their best friend having fun.

About: Hello everyone! My name is Ashley. I have been around dogs and cats and owned and taken care of them my whole life. I have also cared for horses, fish, geckos, turtles, and birds. I’m a huge animal lover and I have a dog who is my whole world. I will make sure your fur babies have the best care and love since I myself am a fur mom and serious about my dog and his safety and well being, as well as your pets. I will make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and that they get plenty of food, water, exercise, bathroom breaks and snuggles. I will keep you updated on how they are doing and send pictures if you would like, so you don't have to worry while being away. I know leaving your pets in a new environment can be a stressful time and I want to make sure you feel at ease while being away from them. I would love to meet and go over your pets needs and set up a plan of care that works best for you. Please feel free to message me with any questions and I look forward to hearing from you. :) I pet sit throughout the week and can on some weekends and holidays take care of your pet and their needs. I have a routine for feeding and bathroom breaks during the day. I may have other clients and could potentially have to leave occasionally to do walks or drop in visits during the day if staying at your home, or may be able to stay full time as well. I would inform you before if that is the case. I will make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I can leave tv on when away if they need. I will let them sleep with me if they are allowed on the bed and find that more comfortable.
