Eve has been beyond helpful with my two pups, really going above and beyond by sharing extra knowledge re: my puppy's recurring UTIs, sending me pictures of their poop when I requested due to my pup having loose stool, etc. She even added a walk at the last minute for me! Her knowledge, experience, and passion are obvious, and I highly recommend her!

Selena is a champ! Arya doesn’t do a lot of people, but Selena got her on the first meet and on their first walk! We will definitely be using her again!

About: I have assisted with dogs my entire life and they have always been in the best care and never needed for anything while with me. I have unlimited time to devote to pet-sitting especially during the day and any dog will be my sole responsibility while my son is in school. I will always give them my undivided attention and interact and care for them as if they were my own and make them the focus.

About: Aside from having a dog in my family my whole life, I've taken care of many dogs over the years. From my neighbor's golden retriever in high school (who I would sneak over to play with when she was out in the yard) to a few dogs in my neighborhood now, I love to get to know the dogs that I help take care of. I have experience dog walking and pet sitting, both in my home and visiting the dog's home. I'm also happy to provide baths and other special care as needed. As a stay at home dad, I have a flexible schedule and can provide a lot of attention for dogs visiting our home, as well as work in a daily walk if that's part of their normal routine. We have a large fenced yard that your dog can enjoy. We've had a variety of dogs stay with us either with or without crates and we can create separate areas with gates if necessary. If your dog stays with us, I have a flexible schedule to provide a lot of attention and with a family of 5 there's always someone around to play with, pet, or sit with your dog. Our friendly beagle is always happy to have a new friend to play with and he's more than willing to share our daily walks around the neighborhood with another friend.

About: I have experience caring for both elderly and young dogs. This has equipped me with a variety of skills such as age-appropriate exercise, nutritional needs, and understanding certain behaviors and how to react. I just recently graduated high-school and need something to fill my time. Playing with your pups seems to be the best thing to fill my day! I’m free majority of the week and only work part-time as a waitress. I have a cat and dog at my house but both a friendly to other animals. If needed the animals can be put in a separate room away from clients pet.

Kim has walked my anxious, medically-complex rescue dog multiple times a week for the past year. She does an awesome job with him and is always cheerful, professional, prompt and accommodating. I am very picky about who takes care of him because of all his issues and I feel so much better having Kim there to take care of my little guy.

Zoe was great! She was always on-schedule and was very patient with my weird little girl. She does things like hiding when it's time to go out and then pulling a LOT once you finally get her out. But Zoe never complained and always hung around with the baby for a few minutes of love and play after the walk. My schedule has changed and no longer need a dog-walker, but if I ever need one again, will definitely look for her!

About: I have had a dog of my own for 8 years until I moved out of my parents house, and have assisted my roommates with many dog sittings/walks. I'm currently available all days of the week since school is not in session, I do not have a job so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a yard, but not fenced in. I am comfortable with taking dogs out on a leash and have a comfortable neighborhood to provide great long walks!

Elise was amazing with my 2 dogs! She was super flexible with my timing requests and even offered to let them out a second time if i needed. She showed up right on time for the 30 minute walk i booked and walked them for a full 31 minutes. Elise was responsive, tracked the walk in Rover and sent me photos of them. Prior to the walk she also came over to meet the dogs and myself so I could show her how to get in and where everything was. She went above and beyond and I will absolutely be booking her again!

Jessika was easily the best I’ve found in the app by far. I work long hours and require someone to stop by for a walk and food/water break. She was great with my puppy and even left a little surprise for her. My little girl seemed much less stressed after her visits and it completely removed the stress of worrying about her while working. I would absolutely recommend Jessika!

About: I have been taking care of my pets since I was around 10. I have 2 cats and a dog of my own. I foster dogs with my mother, which we have been doing for 3 years and have placed many dogs in wonderful homes. I really enjoy walking dogs and taking them on hikes for whatever exercise they need to get out. I watch a bunch of family friends pets and some people who live nearby to me, so I do have experience with that as well. I’m currently in college, but am home for the summer. I do not have much going on so I am feel all the time basically. I would be able to be very flexible for whatever you pet needs. I have my own dog who loves to play with other dogs if they are comfortable otherwise she has a crate. If your pet is crated I have extra crates if needed and I keep a timely feeding with my dog between 6-7am and 5-6pm. There is always water out. I do have some cats in the home where I reside.

Chester came back, happy and tired, which that’s what my goal was. I did think that this was a dog walk for an hour but it seems that it was just him playing out in the yard so definitely not what I thought I had paid for. However, whatever was done did work. So no offense I’m gonna see if I can find somebody who will walk him and see if it has even better results. I will keep you in mind if I need a long-term sitter like for a day or two days or a week. I’m not sure if you do that or not but Might work out for me.

Samantha has been great with our fur babies! Reliable and trusting for a long weekend away. She has earned the love from our shy boy which means a lot! Was cautious on super hot days to not walk them on the pavement but instead stayed and played with them in the yard to get all the energy out. Will continue to use her services in the future!

My dog came back happy and got a much longer walk than he normally does with me. She’s fast! She also brought a reflective vest for the dog and a light up collar. I felt my dog was safe with her. I love that she thought of everything.
