“Michael arrived promptly at the discussed time. He was appropriately cautious for a new meeting with a dog and allowed Sophie to lead the introduction. She immediately felt at ease with him!

About: I have 10 years of experience with all types of dogs, from puppies to senior dogs and traumatized dogs. I was Link's mother for 10 years and volunteer at pet shelter. I learned to reassure, socialize and help dog to gain confidence. I specialize in long walks and canicross (running with a dog). I left my job as a nurse in France to follow my husband to the United States, so I am available every day of the week from 8am to 4pm and I adapt my schedule to your needs for the night care of your pet. I adapt to your dog's habits for frequency of walks and meal times. I am attentive to the advice of the dog's parents. I enjoy taking long walks in Cherokee Park because the dogs can meet other dogs and he has plenty of space to play or walk. If I keep your dog in my home, I appreciate it if you bring toys or a blanket with the scent of your home, which helps to reassure him.
“Jen went above and beyond for my anxious dog, when I noticed he was upset in his crate she came back to calm him down (TWICE). Thank you so much for taking such great care of him!”
“Eleanor continues to provide meaningful care on my Zeke dog’s weekly walks and seamless communication surrounding all walks. We are grateful and happy to have her in our lives - as will you!”
“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’ve had or taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I’ve had pets from hamsters to 160 pounds Great Danes. My love for animals is vast. I work from home so caring for my animals and others is very easy for me. My job is working from a laptop so it’s very portable and easy for me. I can do anything needed to care for your pet. Whether that’s a drop in visit or a walk. If your animals like car rides I can also take them out and about! When I am house sitting your animals will never be left for more than 5 hours.
About: I am always the friend to watch everyone’s dogs as I am reliable and will make sure your babies are loved, fed, walked and spoiled. I work from home and am off weekends so they will never be left alone for long periods of time and take them on walks during my lunch break. I have a fenced in back yard. I have 1 dog and he is older and very mellow and gets along with all other dogs.
About: I love pets but don’t currently have one of my own, so Rover is the perfect side hustle for me! I have dog-sat regularly for friends and family for years and am comfortable with all breeds and ages. I work from home 2 days per week and my office is nearby, so on office days I can come home on my lunch hour for a potty/play break. For the energetic dogs - I love walking as much as your pup does and I’m always up for a good long trek or play session! For the couch potatoes, I’m also happy to chill at home. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I work from home two days per week and usually take my lunch break at home when I’m in the office, so I have plenty of time to devote to pet care! I enjoy long walks or hikes on the weekends, so I’m happy to welcome higher-energy pets as well. I have a smaller fenced-in yard that’s perfect for potty breaks for larger dogs and plenty of room for zoomies for the smaller guys! I’m located very close to a large park that’s perfect for walks, and my neighborhood is very walkable. I love exploring the local neighborhoods, parks, and state parks. I have a separate guest/office space so can easily accommodate crates. I’m familiar with puppy-proofing and keep any dangerous materials either locked away or well out of reach.
“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!”
About: To say I am an animal lover is an understatement. Not only do I have two dogs of my own (a 65lb. German Shepard and 40lb. Wheaton Terrier) who are cared for meticulously, but I've cared for others' dogs and animals many times over the years (from the largest breed to the smallest). I've also been known to pick up stray animals and make sure they are taken care of! I would love to help you with your best friend, whether large or small, canine or feline. I promise your pets will be safe and well-cared for under my supervision. My schedule is very flexible and I will make sure all of your pets needs are met. You won't be disappointed if you pick me to care for your pets!

My husband and I are so thankful for finding Meg and giving us that peace of mind that when we are gone our pups are doing just fine. Communication has been nothing but pleasant and reliable. We hope she doesn't stop caregiving for a good long while! We give her a 10/10 no doubt.”

Alex loves dogs, but she's also attuned to their needs, understands how to make them feel safe, and knows how to manage a wide-range of pup personalities at once. I highly recommend Alex to take care of your fur baby!”
