“Dasia was awesome. This was our second experience using a Rover provider. Dasia was timely, communicative when needed, sent pics at each walk, and was very caring to our pet. She accommodated a change in our travel schedule and modified the service request as needed. I will be using Dasia again and would recommend her services.”
“Jayla’s been a great dog walker! She is dependable, takes fabulous care of my pup, Penny, and has been a true pleasure to work with overall. Thank you for your love and support, Jayla. I so very much appreciate it! -Caitlin”
“The absolute best. Responsive, knowledgeable, caring…Justin is great. Our little guy was safe and happy which put us at ease while we were out of town. Can’t wait to use his services again!”
“Rita is doing a great job with Bella. She is very punctual and she keeps me informed about her time with Bella. I can tell that Rita genuinely likes dogs . We are very happy we found Rita and we look forward to working with her for as long as possible.”
About: I love all kinds of pets, and can get along with all pet personalities. I care for two cats and have experience with small to medium-large sized dogs. I do well with animals that are used to routine, including senior pets. I work part-time on commission so my schedule is flexible to accommodate any kinds of pet care. As an active person, walking pets or entertaining them inside the house is one of my favorite parts of pet care. Your pet knows your home best, and I work best when pets are as relaxed as possible. Always attentive to your pet 's needs and always keeping a watchful eye on them.
About: I have taken care of service dogs through programs such as Terps Raising Pups and Warriors Canine Connection. I love exercising, so I would be more than happy to take your dog on a walk! I currently have seasonal employment so my schedule is very flexible and it can be adjusted depending on the needs of the dog sitting appointment. I have a large fenced yard and plenty of space inside my house for your dog. I also don’t have any pets if that is a concern. Your dog will also be receiving lots of cuddles!
About: I have always had a dog in my family, as well as my own dog. I am always fostering dogs from the shelter as well! I have off Friday- Sunday rotating every 2 weeks. I also have off two or 3 days during the week on the offset week. Message me your dates so I can give you my specific days during that time! My live in best friend works the opposite schedule, so someone will always be home with the pup! Our back yard is very spacious and all of it is fenced in and secure. I will keep your dog on the same schedule as they were on before.
“Demi is wonderful! She was so attentive and communicative while taking my puppy for morning walks. I loved all of the pictures she sent and know that my dog really loved spending time with her!”
“Desmond was great with my dog. He’s very friendly and reliable. Desmond was on time, professional, and always walked Duncan at least a mile. He was good about picking up after the dog too. My dog loves him. I’d use him again!”
About: I’m the kind of sitter who talks to your pets like they’re people, sends you cute photo updates with silly captions, and gives belly rubs like it’s my full-time job. I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether they’re a zoomies champion, a couch potato, or a little shy at first. I’m super dependable, always respectful of your home, and I make sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. Whether it’s fetch, cuddles, long walks, or just good company, I’ve got your pet covered like their favorite blanket! Pet care isn’t just something I squeeze into my day—it is a meaningful part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around giving animals the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s stopping by for a midday check-in, spending quality time with a cat who loves quiet company, or making sure routines stay consistent, I show up fully present and ready to love on your pet like they’re my own. Taking care of animals brings me joy, calm, and purpose—and that energy reflects in every visit. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I always aim to create a calm, cozy, and loving environment where your fur baby feels safe and cared for. In your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine—keeping everything clean, sticking to feeding and medication schedules, and giving them the attention they’re used to (or the space they prefer). If I’m hosting in my home, I make sure it’s a pet-friendly zone: comfy spots to nap, lots of love, enrichment activities, and of course—plenty of belly rubs or chin scratches (depending on the vibe!). My goal is to keep things as stress-free and familiar as possible, so your pet stays happy, healthy, and relaxed while you’re away.
