About: I work from home several days a week and thought this would be a good opportunity to get out more and stretch my legs. I have 3 dogs of my own at home so I’m a very experienced pet owner! I am available 5 days a week; Wednesday through Sunday. Any time of day necessary! Since I work from home 3 days a week I can be fairly flexible. I can pop in to your house to let the dogs out or even take them for walks. I’m open to doing what you need. I’m also fine with giving medication as well.

“Wendi is the best dog walker we have had and we have had a lot. We love her and so does Jake”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 3 years of hands-on pet care experience. I’ve walked dogs of all sizes and temperaments, volunteered as a dog walker at the humane animal shelter ,fostered several cats (and proudly “foster failed” my first two—because I just couldn’t let them go!), and truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and spoiled. Whether your pup needs energetic walks or your kitty just wants some quiet companionship, I’ll treat them like family. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets behind, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos, cuddles, and peace of mind while you’re away! I work from home, giving me the flexibility to drop by whenever your pet needs. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment where your pet feels relaxed and happy. I follow your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to minimize stress. I provide plenty of attention and affection, monitor their behavior and well-being, and keep the space clean. I also ensure your home stays secure and follow any special instructions you provide to meet your pet’s unique needs.

“I am very grateful to have found Robin. I have a senior, female pit bull, who was abused before I adopted her. Lily senses Robin's kind nature. She has taken to Robin as a new "best buddy". She's happy to go on walks with Robin and looks forward to her visits. Robin is attentive and a great listener. She is also very punctual, which I appreciate greatly. She has followed all of my instructions perfectly (a rare attribute these days). I have found Robin to be very trustworthy. I give her 5 stars and would give her a 10, if possible. If you want a trustworthy, affectionate and kind hearted sitter, hire Robin.”

About: Hi, I’m Marisa—a lifelong animal lover with over a decade of professional experience in pet care. I began working on Rover in July 2024 and have truly enjoyed every moment. Before that, I spent six years managing a well-known dog kennel in Peters Township, where I gained extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with dogs who had a wide range of needs, including those with anxiety, aggression, age-related challenges, and medical issues. Many of these pets weren't well-suited for a kennel environment, and I realized how beneficial in-home care can be for their well-being. That’s why I now bring my services directly to you—so your pet can feel safe, secure, and loved in the comfort of their own home. I’ve built a reputation for handling strong, high-energy dogs and those who are a bit tougher to walk or need extra patience. I'm especially proud of my ability to build trust with shy or reactive pets. Earning their comfort and affection is one of the most rewarding aspects of what I do. Working with animals has always been my greatest passion. I’ve also worked at the Washington Area Humane Society and take every opportunity to expand my knowledge in animal care and behavior. I genuinely believe I communicate better with animals than humans—and I say that with a smile! Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I’m happy to accommodate special requests and tailor each visit to your pet’s unique routine and personality. I also provide plenty of photos and updates to keep you in the loop. I'm available every day of the week. However, I do work another job on: Thursdays from 4pm–11pm Fridays from 4pm–9pm I AM AVAILABLE ON HOLIDAYS! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs before our visits begin. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during a walk, I maintain a calm and controlled environment, always keeping their emotional and physical safety in mind. I closely monitor interactions, use secure leashes and harnesses, and follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medication, or preferred walking routes. I never leave pets unattended and always keep a close eye on their body language to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. I also send frequent photo and video updates, so you’ll always feel confident and informed while you're away.

Whether it’s a quick midday walk or weekend drop-in, I’m here to give your pup the attention, exercise, and love they deserve — all while chasing my own goals too!

“Jarett was excellent with golden retriever. We had another Rover walker cancel on us at the last minute due to a health issue. We were so thankful Jarett was available to walk our dog and take on our last minute request. His communication was excellent, he was on time, flexible, shared pictures and willing to walk our dog on the requested route in our neighborhood. We would definitely recommend Jarett and hope to book with him again!”

About: At this time, I am not house sitting. I like dog walking or drop ins. Thank you! I have always enjoyed dogs; playing and walking them especially in my neighborhood or at the park. When I was nine years old our first dog was Comet, a happy yellow lab and a bit of a barker. Then our family adopted a good little guy named Seamus. He was a mixed black lab puppy and he was very territorial which took some training and love to help him be less aggressive. I am not going to brag, but I know that I was Seamus' favorite because he never growled at me. We loved taking walks and rides. Unfortunatley, Seamus passed away from cancer in 2012. Next my parents found Noah from a beagle rescue. He is 100% beagle and 100% mischievious. He is a great guy, but he steals slippers even at the ripe old age of 10. He likes car rides. My husband and I adopted Mikey, a beagle mix and he is my buddy. He goes everywhere with us. He has been to Ohiopyle, playgrounds, family member's houses, and a Target Drive Up run. He is like my kid. I am definately his favorite! I have time in the evenings and on the weekends. I can be available with advanced notice in the daytime. Let me know how I can help. I give them love like you would, and I pet them. Even a massage can help their joints as older dogs have pain sometimes. I treat dogs like they are my family.
