“Tbh I was hesitant to allow a man into my house, but I’m really glad I took a chance on Hon. Truly a Godsend. Detailed daily reports that reflect a genuine caring for my doggy, and wonderful photos that helped my family to remain connected with our good boy while we were away for nearly two weeks. Hon’s help allowed me to actually relax on my vacation because I knew Woody was in good hands. Thanks, Hon!! Hope to see you again.”

About: We have had pets since the day we were born, and have a sweet Samoyed of our own now! We have been doing dog sitting, boarding, and walking for the past 5 years professionally! We love every minute of teaching your dog new tricks, taking them places to explore, and taking the best pet photos to send to you! We are usually always home as our jobs can be remote. We like to take our dog and others with us on adventures, walks, and car rides! Our lives are flexible to fit a furry friend in! We use leashes outside for walks, keep gates in front of our doors, and spend majority of our time with your fur babies to make sure they are always safe, happy, and healthy!
“We had an excellent first experience with Leigha! She did a wonderful job walking my dogs. She was punctual, professional, and clearly cares about the pets in her care. My doggos came back happy and well-exercised. Leigha sent great updates during the walk and was easy to communicate with from booking to completion. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs with her and would definitely book again. Highly recommend Leigha to other pet owners!”
“On very short notice, Boryana was able to step in, take the time to meet me and Yoda before walking and feeding Yoda. She was fantastic! I would definitely use her again and recommend her highly.”
“Kim is absolutely wonderful, I can’t recommend her enough! She is flexible, conscientious, kind, and really cared about my quirky dog. Her communication and updates are excellent. She is incredibly reliable and I never worried about Daisy for a second while Kim was taking care of her (and I worry about everything). I was always confident that Daisy would be safe and happy, because Kim goes above and beyond to ensure that. When my dog hurt her back a day before a housesitting visit and required meds, Kim was unfazed and helped Daisy make a full recovery. She also takes the best pictures, which were such a treat to get while I was out!”
About: I’ve had two dogs in my life. One really big and one really small. Always walked the dog for my parents after school everyday. At this point in my life, I am very good with pets and can definitely give them a great walk. Available Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday at mostly any time period. Tuesday and Thursdays would need to be any time before 12. Very flexible with times. I am very aware of my surroundings and can ensure your house will be in better shape than you left it too. Plus I have all the treats and toys a dog could ask for and will make it my duty to take care of your dog.
“Megan is the best. She has been one of our go tos the last couple months with dog walking and house sitting. She is quick to reply and does a great job communicating. She is so thoughtful and always goes above and beyond whether it is bringing in packages, taking out the trash or helping clean up puppy accidents. We so appreciate, Megan!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve always been the one in my family responsible for feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with them. I have also pet-sat for my neighbors’ dogs and recently helped take care of a friend’s Golden Retriever, where I walked, fed, and played with her regularly. In addition, I volunteered for two summers at my local pet shelter, where I cleaned cat areas and spent time playing and socializing with the cats. I currently have a black lab at my parents’ house while I attend college. Overall, I have a lot of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am a college student on summer break with full availability, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I am available Monday through Sunday and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention, exercise, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely and respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. My priority is making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am not offering services where pets stay in my home.
Heathcote dog parents share their Rover experiences
Linda has been walking my Golden Retriever puppy, Finn, all this week. Linda’s calm, capable & caring energy instantly put me at ease. Finn warmed up to her right away, and now he’s very excited to see her every time she arrives! Linda is reliable, trustworthy, and she prioritizes communication, which is invaluable. I’m happy to have found her, and I highly recommend Linda for all your dog walking needs!
I Highly Recommend Holly! She is very caring and responsible as well as attentive to the pet’s needs. And ours as pet owners! She took great care of our Frenchie, lots of photos, reports from the time Holly was visiting. I could see that our pup was happy and safe. Looking forward to working with her again in the very near future.
Avi has been an amazing dog walker for Astro. From the very start, Astro absolutely loved him and was always so excited and happy to go on walks with him. Avi is reliable, caring, and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. We always felt comfortable knowing Astro was in great hands. Highly recommend Avi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog walker.
I am so grateful to have found Jessica as a dog walker for my pit mix (Maple) and my chihuahua mix (Chia). You can tell that she really cares and is a true animal lover. Anything that I have told her about them (their training, what is best for them, and what they prefer, etc) has been taken into consideration and applied. Thank you Jessica for being so thoughtful and caring. They are so happy when I come home from work!
Amy is very thoughtful, attentive, and caring towards our dogs! We have two pitties who are active and playful. One of our pups required a slow introduction and Amy was so great with it and after a giving her some space initially, our pup warmed right up to her. Amy was communicative and let us know how the dogs were on the visit and throughout the walk. We will definitely book with her again!
Seriously, this young lady was the best dog walker ever! Purva was always on time, reliable, and great with my dog. My neighbors would agree. My crazy ADHD dog loved his walks with her. He'd go nuts when he heard her car. She could handle his energy and kept me updated with pics and texts. Plus, her prices were the best!! You should totally book Purva!
