“Christine was great! I met her ahead of time and instantly liked her. My dog did too. Everything ran smoothly and I loved getting the photos she sent. I’ll surely use her again.”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have had four dogs of my own, including two larger dogs that I helped train and care for. I’m experienced with walking, feeding, playing with, and giving lots of attention to dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also dog sat before and truly enjoy being around animals. I’m very patient, responsible, and passionate about pet care because I plan to become a veterinarian in the future. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your dog. I’m available most days for walks and will always do my best to work with your schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m very patient, caring, and understanding with dogs because I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level. I believe in positive care and creating a safe, loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and happy. I also value communication with owners and will always treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would want for my own.

About: I have been around pets my whole life and know how to read their body language. I am respectful if they need space and let them warm up to me. My family had large dogs and cats growing up that I helped care for and train. I helped care for 3 litters of puppies and I trained the puppies we kept. I also had a cat who was spoiled with love and lots of playtime. I work at a school and don't work during the summer, so I am very flexible. During the school year my availability will be afternoons/evenings on weekdays. I love cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I will love your pet like my own! I truly enjoy taking care of cats and dogs and giving them lots of play and affection. I always respect their space if they are afraid, but I am skilled at earning their trust and helping them warm up to me.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!
About: I provide attentive, high-quality care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m experienced with structured routines, leash handling, and reading dog behavior to ensure a safe and positive environment. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or just extra affection, I deliver dependable, top-tier care every time. My schedule is currently flexible as I am in between work allowing me to be available morning-evenings. Whether you’re looking for a morning walk or running late from work I can be there. I try to keep things as normal as possible for your dog while you’re gone. I follow your routine, make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and getting plenty of attention. I’m also very respectful of your home and keep everything clean and in order.
About: I’m a dedicated and loving pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs—including my own big reactive German Shepherd, who is truly the star of my life. Through daily care, training, and attention, I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, structure, and what makes pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I recently moved to the area, so I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. This allows me to give pets the attention, consistency, and care they need. I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so they feel secure and cared for—whether in my home or yours, or a walk.
About: We have experience of raising our 4 year old pitbull since a pup! She loves company and we work from home allowing us to provide all the care to any dogs in need! We work from home so our schedule is super flexible. Any specific routines or schedules that your dog needs just let us know and we’ll make do! Our dogs are allowed throughout the entire basement and first floor. We have an unfenced yard for them to play and also have an additional crate. This is a dog-friendly neighborhood with perfect paths to go on a walk.
“We interviewed a few walkers on Rover, and Taylor was the one who stood out above the rest. She was much more clear and descriptive about her approach, her style of managing dogs, and her specific techniques. She is very organized, highly responsive, and I highly recommend her for your pets!”

About: Growing up I was raised in a very pet friendly household surrounded by animal lovers. I have kept this quality well into my adult years and have made it my mission to extend love and respect to every animal I meet and care for. Dog or cat, they will be treated kindly and with respect. As I am currently attending school from home, I am available weekdays for visits in the mornings and/or evenings. Unfortunately afternoons I am not available. I make it my duty to learn about every animals individual needs; their likes, dislikes, and sensitivities. I will make sure to keep on hand any emergency information such as general vet and emergency vet details. At the first sign of issue, I will make sure your animal will receive the care they need while keeping you in the loop every step of the way.
“We have used Kati in the past - our dlogs love her!!!! She does a great job with them and I highly recommend her. Our dogs aren't "easy" and she won them over immediately. Thanks Kati!!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 12, and went to college for Animal Ecology at Iowa State University. I’ve had experience working with zoo animals (e.g., lions, giraffes, penguins, etc.) for 4 years, and have gained experience as a dog trainer. My experiences working with many species of animals, along with dog (and cat!) sitting for a variety of ages, sizes, and breeds has made me extremely comfortable with working with all animals! On top of providing walks and play time, I am comfortable administering medications (both orally and subcutaneously). Between my four pets, my average day revolves around their routines. Whether it be a morning and afternoon walk with my dog, to daily handling with my two reptiles. Pet care is and always will be a highlight and focus of my day. I’ve very intent on making sure your pet is taken care of the way you want them to be taken care of. I will make sure to treat your pet with respect and care, and follow any preferences you tell me!
“Hanna was wonderful with Jaxx on his first walk. He was shy at first since he’d never had a walker before, but her calm and patient approach helped him warm up quickly. She let him walk at his own pace, shared detailed updates, and even sent a picture, which I really appreciated. I felt very relieved and will definitely continue using her services”

“Jennifer was great: caring, prompt, accommodating, and attentive. She repeatedly offered to go out if her way to offer additional assistance while I was physically incapacitated and unable to walk my dog.”

“Haven was so great with our dog. She was available on short notice and went above and beyond to take care of our dog that has anxiety. He felt very comfortable with her right away. I would highly recommend Haven as a dog walker/sitter!”
