Dog Walking Houserville

“Rochelle is the best dog walker I’ve come across on Rover. She is responsible, quick to respond to messaging, and spends extra time with my pup. If I could give her more than five stars, I would. Highly recommend.”

“Katrina is an angel! She was wonderful in her communication with me AND with my pup, Warren. I will absolutely be using her services again in the future and I am excited to travel knowing that Warren is well taken care of.”

“Dave was an excellent caretaker for our dog while we were on vacation! He was always timely with the scheduled walks and took great photos and provided plenty of feedback for each of their interactions. Our dog is very weary of new people, especially men, but he warmed up to Dave almost instantly and eagerly awaited his visits. We would definitely hire Dave again and recommend him to other pet parents!”

About: Hi! My name is Katie! I am a student at Penn State and a lover of all creatures, large and small! I have had family dogs throughout my childhood. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, breeds with longer coats, and both large and small breeds. I also have experience with handling rescues of various sizes with different triggers. I also have grown up with cats and have experience with all ages and sizes too! Additionally, I have experience with caring for pet rabbits. I have had several over the years. **I do not have experience with disabled or dogs with special needs, however I am willing to learn and accommodate whenever necessary! I am currently working part-time and am a part-time student at Penn State (student status subject to change). I will have plenty of time to tend to your fur babies! I cannot provide boarding services at this time, so all my pet care services will be at or around your home. I can walk the dogs, play with them, make sure they are properly fed and watered, and take them outside regularly.

“Hannah was great! My dog Trixie enjoyed her walks with her, and it's clear how much she cares for animals. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her!”

About: Hello! Thanks for considering me to look after your furry loved one. :) I've been a cat owner for most of my life and also have experience with all kinds of dogs through previous pet-sitting. I'm also accustomed to caring for kittens and pets with special dietary and/or medication needs. I have two cats of my own, Suki and Dimitri, who mean more to me than anything! As an educator in my daily life, I take communication very seriously--I also know that when I go out of town, my babies are always on my mind! That's why when I look after pets, I am sure to provide frequent updates and pictures so that you can feel confident that your pets are doing well. I am a PhD student working on my dissertation, which means my schedule is incredibly flexible and I can easily work with your availability to find times that work for everyone! As a guest to your home, I will carefully respect your pets' space and boundaries to make them feel as safe as possible. Creating a relationship of trust, both with you as a client and with your pet, is extremely important to me.

“Sydney was responsive and was on time. My dog seemed to really like her! She also takes really good pictures which is a nice bonus :)”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have two lovable 80-pound dogs, Layla and Luna. Since I was 15, I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, working with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I also volunteered at PAWS, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a variety of needs. I’m passionate about animals and dedicated to making sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work full time, 8AM-5PM M-F. However, I am remote Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and have a lunch break from 1-2pm. I can let your pup(s) out morning, afternoon, early evening, and night, along with more times if needed! I don’t have a fence in my yard but I have long leashes attached to my deck posts. Please provide me with more information about your pup and circumstances if you are looking to board!

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of ripley today!”

“Great sitter — flexible, dependable, and wonderful with Dennis. She helped with a walk yesterday and stayed extra today when I was late. Dennis loved her. Highly recommend and will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have always had a dog growing up, so caring for pups has always come naturally to me! 🐾 Over the past 10+ years, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Along with helping friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve also gained even more experience through our local Facebook community by caring for pets for families in the area. I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality! Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or just curling up for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family because I know how much they mean to you. Have more than one pup? No problem! My spouse is also available to help during overnight stays, so there’s always an extra set of hands to make sure each dog gets plenty of love and attention. We’re both Penn State students, which gives us lots of flexibility with our schedules and boarding in our home. That means more playtime, walks, potty breaks, cuddles, and one-on-one attention throughout the day! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands! 💕🐶 I’m currently a college student and work part-time as a babysitter, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. Being a babysitter has taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing dependable care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, overnight care, or boarding, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and house rules. I take the time to build trust with every pet and make sure they feel comfortable in my care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I've had pets in my life since I was a child - dogs, cats, rabbits, and rats! I currently have one large dog (German Shepherd mix) and a cat. I'm comfortable caring for all sizes and types of dogs, any cats, or other small animals. I've worked with a trainer for my own dog for reactivity, and have experience walking and taking care of large dogs. I work full time during the week and am available for morning/evening visits and weekends visits or walks. I will give your fur babies the same love and care I give to mine, they are family! I work full time during the week so I am available for morning and evening visits during the week, and weekend visits or walks at any time. My fur babies are quite spoiled! I will give yours the same love and care. I'm professional, dependable, and genuinely love caring for animals, mine or yours!

About: Growing up my family had a miniature schnauzer and we were lucky enough to have her in our lives for 18 years! I would walk her every day, administer tick and flea medicine, teach her tricks, make eating her food fun as she got older, took her to the groomer, and of course gave her lots of attention and playtime. I've also walked a handful of my friends' dogs before either just around the block or for a few miles depending on much exercise they need. I'm also familiar with drop in visits to feed dogs dinner or let them out to run around in the yard. Right now I work part time so I have some availability during the work week, as well as the weekends. I'd be happy to come walk your dog before work, let your dog out (and or walk them) around lunch time, feed your dog or cat breakfast, lunch or dinner, as well as just spending time playing with your pets and making sure they are getting the attention they need when you are away. When I am in your home I will be diligent to make sure I am providing your pet the care that you have asked for. I like to know what is expected of me to make sure I provide quality care so I may ask some questions to ensure I am successful!

About: Growing up with a grandfather who owns his own clinic and is a veterinarian, I have had a lot of animals cats, dogs, and even a snake at one point. From these experiences, I have the ability and desire to take care of your pet and will do so with love and care. I’m a current college student home for the summer and holiday breaks and work part time at a local restaurant. This gives me ample amount of time to care for your little ones. I treat pets as members of the family.I personalize care according to the pets personality and the owners wishes, with safety as a top priority. I find out as much as I can about the pet beforehand so that I can foster a good connection from the start.

About: I've been caring for pets of neighbors, family, and friends since I was a child. I love and care for animals of all breeds, sizes, and abilities. I’m currently interning part-time and will be in office every other day, as reflected in my Rover calendar. Outside of this, I am open to care for your pets! I understand that all animals have different boundaries and personalities, and I take that into account with each animal I care for. I am gentle with all pets and ensure that their safety and comfort is my top priority.

About: Hi! I’m a college student at Penn state university with 4–5 years of experience caring for pets. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, bathe, walk, and love their animals like my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets. Thank you for considering me to care for your amazing companion! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially while I’m home for the summer and have a more open schedule. I plan my days around my availability (11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays) and make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention, care, and playtime they need. Whether it's feeding, grooming, or just keeping a cat company, I treat it like a priority not a side task. I also stay flexible so I can adjust to each pet’s unique routine and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm and familiar environment by following the pet’s routine as closely as possible. I pay close attention to body language and other cues to understand how the pet is feeling, and I give them the space or affection they need based on their comfort level. I know that trust takes time, especially with animals, and I’m always patient, gentle, and respectful of their boundaries. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, seen, and cared for while their family is away.
