2. Alyssa P.
“Alyssa was such a great walker! We were worried as we wouldn’t have reception. But once we regained service we were so happy to see pictures our pups on their walk. Alyssa followed instructions perfectly and showed great care for our dogs! Would not hesitate to have her walk them again!”
3. Jessie G.
“I really appreciated Jessie's help when I went off island. The dogs looked forward to her coming and she let both do their thing (nose around) on their walks. She was reliable and gentle and comfortable with both animals. She would be my "go-to gal" when I needed the dogs walked. Thank you Jessie!”

5. Kelsey G.
About: I’ve always loved animals as long as I can remember. I have had a lot of pets ranging from a pony to turtles to cockatiels. I have four kitties that are my world 🌏 I’m always grateful for the opportunity to love on other animals too! 🥰 I have been a pet sitter on Rover previously when I was a travel RN in Seattle. I currently work at Krishna Cow Sanctuary and have a flexible schedule. I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule. I have been a nurse for the last five years in oncology. I am taking some time for myself to rejuvenate. I prefer getting to build relationships with pets and their people. It’s great for all of us to have continuity of care. My kitties are family and I love spoiling them and making sure they have healthy lives. I also use Rover when I visit my family and friends on the mainland, and know what it means to have someone else make sure that they are well cared for until I get back.

“Conner has taken great care of my pets! I can always rely on him & trust him to do a good job. He’s responsible, shows up on time, and does what you ask of him, in addition to going the extra mile. My pets also have loved having him as their sitter, and get excited when he’s there to take care of them, walk them, or play with them. I’d recommend him for sure, and know you’re putting your babies in good hands!”

9. Aniko W.
“Aniko is a fun, loving and responsible pet caregiver. She has been a dog walker for both of my dogs Ehu and Halo, and they both loved her. My terrier mix Halo is picky and has refused to walk with some dog walkers, but he always greeted Aniko with happiness and excitement. I feel very comfortable having Aniko walk my dogs when I am out of town and unable to do so myself. I recommend her services highly.”

12. Brady M.
“Integrity, responsibility and professionalism. The three words that come to mind when I think about my long-time friend Brady McLaughlin. Since I met him about eight years ago, he has been a true friend in the deepest sense of the word. When down times fell upon people I've always seen him be the first person to offer advice or an ear to listen. He has always been able to put a smile on his face and on others even when the world may not deal him a great hand. Im grateful to have a friend such as him, and I know based on past experience, I can call him a life-long friend. I hope your consideration is made with an open mind, he is truly a great friend, and all around person.”
13. Taryn G.
About: I have taken care of animals ever since I can remember. I grew up on a farm where we had cattle, pigs, dogs, and cats. Not only did I care of my animals on a day-to-day basis, I would also petsit for family friends. This included staying at their home, feeding and watering the animals, letting them out to go potty, bathing them, and giving them lots of love while their owners were away. I have a dog back home, and she is a 3 year old terrier and poodle mix. I am currently in college, but I still have plenty of free time to care for your pets! I have a car, so I'm able to leave whenever and arrive quickly at my destination. Some of my classes are online, so I am able to be in different places when I am in class. I listen to my client's wants and needs and I follow accordingly. With every animal, I will give him/her lots of love and attention. I will treat every animal as if it were my own🤍

I will appreciate a 2-3 days notice when making appointments so that I can accommodate your schedule to care for your furry babies.
