I highly recommend Vanessa. We had an emergency situation and Vanessa immediately responded to our request for a dog walker and was to our house within 30 minutes. She kindly sent us the most adorable pictures of her with our dog. He clearly enjoyed his time with her. She was a lifesaver and so kind to our dog!!

Vergil took the request with less than 24 hours notice and quickly am a connection with our pups. He clearly took the time and effort to maximize their walks and they got great exercise. He even managed to accommodate an extension ensuring we had a great time while we were away. We will DEFINITELY work with him again.

Elizabeth took excellent care of Gracie. Very reliable. She communicated with me in regard to both scheduled walks, one feeding and giving Gracie her treats. When I arrived home, Gracie was so full of energy. I think she was trying to tell me of the wonderful day she had with Elizabeth - - her new friend.

I am so grateful to have Laurie as part of my dog's care team. She goes above and beyond with engaging him during and after walks, and her notes are so helpful. I can tell she isn't just going through the motions, but trying to understand him so she can bring the most benefit in their time together (it's clear she is very experienced). I feel lucky to have found someone I can trust, to add exercise and joy to his daily routine! I only wish I had found her earlier!

About: Hello! My name is Sadé, a lifelong animal lover with 3 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I take time to understand each dog’s unique needs, routines, and quirks to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies who need training and structure, to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and tender care. I’m also comfortable with leash training, crate routines, and special diets. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or cozy snuggles, I’ll make sure your baby feels like family. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I work remotely Monday through Friday with plenty of breaks in between, so I’ll be able to give your pets plenty of attention, walks, and play sessions I live in a decently sized apartment with enough space for your pets to run around and play. There is a spacious, clean dog park on the premises as well as quiet neighborhoods with multiple trails to walk. I currently have a 2 year old Pug named Bruce to keep your pet company! Bruce is playful, friendly, and very well socialized with other dogs. All pets will be supervised, so no need to worry ! Walks will be fun for your pet , I like to take them on trails and let them sniff around for as long as they need. I am very good at recognizing signs of stress and exhaustion in pets, so safety will always be a priority on walks.

About: I have grown up with animals in the house all my life, and have experience taking care of dogs, cats, and some types of small rodents. I adore animals and love spending plenty of quality time with them. I am available to drop-in and visit, walk, or stay with animals as per my schedule on Rover. If in doubt, you can always contact me personally. I can offer a safe and enriching environment for your animal(s) through playtime, walks, and cuddling. I value all animals' space and comfort-levels, and will adjust to their needs based on how they react to my presence.

About: I have always been a dog lover so I will give your dog the love and affection as if they are my own. Currently I work at a Doggie Daycare and boarding so I have experience with all different types of dog breeds, I am able to distinguish behavioral pattern and provide the care that is needed. I aim to please owners by providing the upmost experience without any problems. I want to ensure the trust of every owner and dog to be able to build long lasting relations. I aim to give at least 3 walks per day to make sure there aren’t any accidents. I also plan on going to dog parks to give them their play time. I will make sure to give each dog treats for good behavior. I will provide daily belly rubs and cuddles that will benefit the both of us. My goal is to leave everyone satisfied with each experience so that we may continue to work together. I currently work full time at a Doggie daycare and boarding facility, which consists of being in a room with 20+ dogs, playing& cleaning up after every dog, also monitoring the behaviors or each dog and making sure there aren’t any altercations while in my care. My daily routine consists of taking dogs on walks before my shifts and taking them after my shifts, and while I am at work my sister often lets the dogs out for potty breaks. My first thing would be to make sure the dog is comfortable in my house, I will also make sure they are comfortable with my presence. I will try my best to make sure the dog makes no messes while I’m caring for them. I will always clean up after myself and the dog.

We've used Jaicy for a while now and she's incredibly reliable and cares greatly for our dogs. She boarded our last dog and walked him frequently. He loved spending time at her house and playing with her dogs. When we adopted our current dog I knew he'd be in good hands with Jaicy and he took right to her during our meet and greet.

We needed last minute coverage for a dog walker, and Tess was an absolute all start for us! She was able to come do a meet and greet the day before the booking started, and it was clear our dog loved her as soon as she came into the home. She went above and beyond for us and we were so thankful to know Gibson was in good hands. Will definitely is her to book in the future!

Kim is amazing. She is calm, kind, empathetic and my dog is truly in love with her. Shes also always on time and extremely responsive via the app. I was super nervous about finding a dog sitter/walker after some bad experiences with our last dog and feel truly relieved to have someone we can rely on to treat our dog like her own. If she ever stops walking dogs, I’m not sure what we’ll do!
