About: I have spent many years caring for my own rescue pups and volunteering at a local animal shelter. I am very patient and focus on understanding your dog's unique needs. Your dog's happiness is my #1 priority. I work from home and have plenty of time to walk and play with your dogs. I love going for long walks with a furry friend.

“Does such a great job! Goes above and beyond to help get all the energy out of our hyper lab! Can’t say enough great things. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life from before I could remember to now. I’ve had special needs dogs, rescues, and pure breeds who require a little extra love. I’ve cared for senior dogs ( who are blind and deaf) and trained puppies successfully. Over all, I adore dogs of all kinds, shapes, and sizes! I can’t wait to adventure with your pup! I am an elementary school teacher. I am very affectionate and attentive when it comes to animals. I would love to walk and cuddle your pup all summer long! I have two very friendly dogs and a husband who adores pups just as much as I do! We have a very large fenced-in yard where your pup can get in their daily zoomies! We also have two sides of our house where, if necessary, your pup can have alone time with me and away from my other two pups (who can hang out with my husband). When it comes to caring for pets in your home, I will be sure to follow all routines you set. It’s important for a pup (especially one’s still learning) to have the same routines with or without their mom/dad present.

About: I have over 15 years of experience working with dogs. Many of the families for whom I provided childcare also entrusted me with the care of their pets during vacations and extended trips. In addition to my professional experience, I have a dog of my own and regularly care for my family's dogs when they are away.I am a reliable and knowledgeable caregiver with a strong understanding of animal care. I am flexible, patient, and communicate effectively with pet owners. I am teacher during the school year and I have summers off till the middle of August. During the summer I am very flexible with my hours because I only tutor a couple hours a day. During the school I am flexible in the evenings and weekends. I am a reliable and knowledgeable caregiver with a strong understanding of animal care. I am flexible, patient, and communicate effectively with pet owners. I provide regular updates on your pet’s well-being, respond promptly to any questions or concerns, and approach each pet with compassion and attention to their individual needs.Safety is a top priority—I maintain a secure environment, stay alert to potential hazards, and am prepared to handle emergencies with calm and confidence.

About: Hi! I’ve been a proud dog mom, walker, and snuggler for as long as I can remember. I had my sweet Bailey, a high-energy working breed, for over 5 years—so I know how important it is to keep pups both mentally and physically fulfilled (zoomies included). Since I was 12, I’ve been dog-sitting a family friend’s Yorkie every summer while they traveled to Colombia—3 months at a time! My parents made sure I took full responsibility since I was the one earning the treat money, and that experience stuck with me. I’ve been boarding, loving, and caring for dogs ever since. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own—because that’s just how I roll! I currently work part-time, so my schedule is super flexible for your pup’s needs! I work Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays—getting out by 4 PM on Sundays and 6 PM on Mondays and Tuesdays. The rest of the week? I’m all yours! I’m also a total morning person, so even on workdays, I’m available for early walks and drop-ins before 10 AM. Whether your pup needs some morning playtime or midday company, I’ve got the time (and energy!) to make it happen. After losing my dog Bailey, who was truly my best friend, I realized just how deeply I care for animals—and how important it is to treat every pet like they’re your own. I’m incredibly attentive when I’m pet sitting—always checking in to make sure your pup is happy, comfortable, and safe. I go on lots of hikes and adventures, but I never go unprepared—I always bring an emergency kit and usually have a buddy with me, just in case. I also volunteer at shelters as a photographer, so I’m constantly meeting new dogs and have a lot of patience for pups with big personalities or nerves. Whether it’s cuddles, structure, or a good game of fetch, your dog’s needs always come first with me.

“My dog is usually hesitant with strangers, but she INSTANTLY loved Glenn! Animals are definitely his calling. Very pleasant and polite too! It’s very comforting to know my dog is well taken care of when I can’t be there.”
Kristen L.
“Kristen is great! She has watched my beagle, Quinn, several times now, and I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter. Quinn loves her - she gets so excited every time she sees Kristen. Kristen is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She always sends updates and pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. Whether she’s staying at my place overnight or just stopping by for walks, I know Quinn is in great hands. Kristen is careful to follow all of my instructions, which is so important since Quinn is a senior beagle who eats a specific diet and takes medication. I always come home to a happy, relaxed pup, knowing she’s been well looked after. It’s such a relief knowing I can count on someone who is both trustworthy and affectionate with my dog. I highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a kind, attentive, and dependable pet sitter!”
Diana Z.
“I have known Diana for many years! She is amazing with all of my dogs. She cares for each of their specific needs and remembers all their favorite places to go! I will always choose Diana to care for my 4 legged babies! And my babies always choose Diana!”
Kinnelon dog parents share their Rover experiences
Irem has been walking Lux for a few weeks now and everything has been great! She's very communicative, always replies to my texts, and sends multiple pictures when she's out with Lux. I highly recommend her!!
Noelle is fantastic, our dog loves it when she visits and her updates of the walk are always helpful and insightful.
We used Anthony for a walk with my large dogs. He has a lot of knowledge about dogs and their training, and the dogs were happy to go with him. He was responsive in booking- he does prefer scheduling further in advance, but we were lucky he was available on a day’s notice. I recommend Anthony and would use him again.
