“Michael is outstanding with our puppy! He takes the best pictures of him and he looks so happy in each one. He takes him to play with his dog friends down the street and plays with him in our building’s dog run. He also follows my crazy instructions to take him out specific doors and give him a stuffed toy before he leaves without complaint! Most importantly, Remy is happily resting whenever we get home and he’s walking better on the leash since Michael started walking him. We are so grateful!”
“Sam is always such a delight to work with. She’s flexible, communicative and so sweet. Scooter always seems to have such a good time with her!! She’s present and trustworthy as well.”
“Rebecca was fantastic with our mini Australian shepherds and had an instant connection! She was so accommodating of our pets corks and medical conditions. She was extremely flexible with our schedule and meeting our dogs’ needs. We are so happy she was recommended to us and plan to continue to use her moving forward :)”
“Thomas is awesome with dogs, and we will definitely keep using him in the future. Our dog loves him, and we are very comfortable leaving him in Thomas's care. Thomas is very professional and clear on his plan of care and overall expectations from the beginning and sends confirmation messages/texts to make sure we are all on the same page before we leave for our trip. He does exactly what we want him to do and sends lots of pictures of our big guy while on walks and lounging around. It makes traveling so much easier when you know your pet is well taken care of while you are away.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own pets and fostering both cats and dogs. I'm an avid walker with a super flexible schedule, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you're away. I treat every animal like family—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have lots of availability and love being active, so I’m always ready for walks, playtime, and cuddles. My days are flexible, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency as often as they need. I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm very detail-oriented, neat, and organized. I'll always follow your instructions exactly to keep your pet comfortable and your home just the way you left it. You can trust me to treat both with the utmost care and respect.
“Ciara is so amazing!! She is there when she says she’ll be there and sends lots of pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was taking care of our pups! Thank you!! We will definitively be booking with her again!”
About: I am the proud grandchild of a certified crazy pet lady. My grandmother had five cats and two dogs for most of my childhood, so I am well-versed in the patience and love it takes to care for your pets. I work part-time and am a full time student, but I have lots of availability on the weekends and during holidays to care for your pets. I also find myself out and about in the city all the time, so I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while exploring new neighborhoods. I know that your space is your own (and your pet’s, of course) and I will be sure to treat it with the care and respect that I would my own.
About: I have taken care of my families dogs and cat ever since I was 13. I have plenty of experience feeding, walking, and bathing pets! I am currently a student and work a part time job, so I am mainly available early in the morning or later in the evening. I have more availability on weekends! I currently live on an on campus apartment, but have plenty of outdoor space to take pets out. I can crate your pet if that's your preference and will give your pet plenty of love!

I have grown up with dogs (and cats) my entire life and I couldn't imagine my life without them. I am located between Irish Hill and the Highlands. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

Whether that be walks, playing with them, giving food or medication, I can be trusted to ensure the safety and happiness of your dog or cat.
“Athena was absolutely wonderful with Juno! She is so friendly and professional, and goes above and beyond. I forgot to leave my key for her and she came by my work to pick it up! Juno looked so happy when I got home, I could tell she had had a good day thanks to her walk.”
“Jessica was great! She was so considerate of our first time using rover for dog walking and made sure we felt comfortable! Our pup was well taken care of in our absence”
About: I grew up on a farm and spent my summers living and caring for all types of animals from horses to chickens. I am working from home and looking to spend my lunch hour with animals and get some exercise walking neighborhood dogs! Ideally I would like to pet sit or dog walk during my lunch hour Monday - Friday but I am flexible as far as occasional weekend visits and different times of day. I care for every animal as my own and will spend time getting to know their individual personality. And my motto is to always leave someone’s home the same as or better than it was when I found it.
“I started using Maggie for weekly walks for my baby when I first moved here a couple years ago & she is the best. I normally get anxious when someone else is watching her but I don’t feel that way at all when she’s with her. Maggie is confident, knowledgeable, and accountable.”
“Chakra’s first week with Amber has been awesome. It’s been really great for him to have a midday pickup and walk. I can truly see a difference in his temperament.”
About: My wife and I have been married over 20 years and 17 of those have been with multiple dogs in our house. We are dog-less at the moment, but would love to give your dog the love we have all of ours for so many years. I work full time from home and my wife is a professor, so we have a lot of time at home. Our son is 2, and absolutely adores dogs Whatever the owner needs us to do for the dog, we are happy to. Snuggles, walks, potty and regular feeding schedule is always on the docket
“Jessica took such good care of our dogs while we were out of town for 10 days. Consistent with the pickup times and gave us updates each day. We 100% recommend, and we’d definitely book her again!”
“Scott was great with my 6 yr mixed breed pup. I tried a couple other walkers but Scott seemed to bond with Iko immediately and I trusted her to take care of my pup. Communication was great and i would definitely recommend her.”

Caroline R.
“What to say about Caroline. First of all, you think it’s impossible for anyone to love your pet as much as you do. She definitely proves that wrong. My mother & I went on vacation and we’re unable to take our German Shepherd. Now, she’s a crazy, wild, chew on anything type of dog. She loves belly rubs but if you leave her alone for a moment, she’ll destroy anything she can get to. My father refused to be responsible for her the week we were gone and not having money to pay for the crazy fees at a dog facility, I looked to have someone watch her. We were lucky to find Caroline who not only showered my dog with much love and attention, but actually enjoyed spending time with our crazy dog. We even got updates throughout our trip, which was nice. I can’t even begin to tell you how lucky our dog was to have someone like her to spend a week away from home with.”

“Jeremy P is a terrific pet caregiver. Over time, he cared for my multiple cat members [some with medication] and did so calmly, carefully and with confidence. He also helped care for my neighbors dogs, and did so with the same skills and care Jeremy has been a long time pet owner, and knows how to manage visits, play time and walks. Highly recommend him.”
