Dana was wonderful with my two dogs. You don’t have to believe me because both my dogs told me so.

I made this booking last minute and Melissa was nothing but helpful on taking care of my dog as if it was her own. We coordinated a meet and greet which made it easier for my dog to warm up to her and help her understand his needs and daily routine. I will be using her again.

About: Hi there! My name is Sharon and ever since I was little I have always been around a dog and have been watching dogs for as long as I can remember. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs for many years! I promise that your dog will be in good hands with me! Now that my kids are older and I have more time in my schedule, I’m available just about whenever you or your dog need me! I’m available almost anytime, weekdays, weekends, doesn’t matter. I have a fenced in yard with room for your fur baby to explore. I also have an older bichon-poo who likes to meet new friends.

Carly was great! I had to book her last minute because my dog walker fell through. She was flexible and accommodating and made my time away from home stress free. She always showed up on time and kept me updated about my pup. I would definitely have Carly watch Stella again!

Can not thank Alba enough for taking such good care of our little guy! He’s still a puppy and needs a lot of patience and attention and she gave both in spades. Thanks for leaving a happy, sleepy puppy after your visit!

Kasper is the best! They took extra good care of my 3 kitties and followed all instructions left. They sent me tons of pictures and left detailed notes of each visit. I felt the my kitties were safe and in caring hands with Kasper. I also felt my house was safe and locked up properly each time. I will 100% be reaching out for Kasper’s services again in the future. - I can tell you truly care about animals and that’s very important to me in a petsitter. Thank you again for everything.

Serena did a good job....somehow she coaxed Ollie to come out from under the bed and that's a big move for Ollie! All went well and I will certainly request Serena again.

About: Although I don't have any pets myself, family members have always relied on me to look after dogs. Every family member I know at least owns a dog, and for the most part, they all seem to like me as if I have a special connection with each and every one of them. For the two pups I've looked after belonging to two of my family members, I've had some success teaching them a trick or two that their own pet mom and/or dad had not thought of teaching them in. I'm currently out of the job market for the time being as I'm currently pursuing certifications with regards to working in IT in the near future. Providing Rover services provides a healthy balance to my studying once in a while, although this can change in the future should I decide to get back in the job market and find part-time work. I absolutely obey every rule that a client requires me while looking after their dog and/or cat in their own home. At the same time, I make it a fun learning experience in getting know more about the client's pet care requirements as well as the their pet's personality under my care.

About: I am a true dog lover through and through! I have owned many dogs in my life and currently have a rescue pittie named Mia. My main goal in providing dog walking/babysitting is to make you feel comfortable and trust that your baby/babies are receiving top tier care while you’re away. I promise to be equally as committed to your pups’ needs as I am to my own! I am very athletic and exercise daily whether it is in the gym or outdoors going on adventures with my pup. I have a long history filled with experience in handling and caring for other dogs and dog walking, and I understand proper human to dog interaction as well as reading a dog's behavior. I also understand how important it is for your home to stay neat and clean while you are away and making sure your furry family member gets all of the love and exercise they need! I work for myself from home so I have tons of flexibility that allows me to come and go whenever your pooch needs to be walked or babysat! I’m aware that each dog is unique and follows their own routine. I will always be sure to follow any directions and leave your space better than I found it!

About: Experienced pet caregiver with over 5 years on Wag and a background in animal shelter work. I’m dedicated to providing loving, attentive care for your furry friends, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you're away Im currently working part time meaning I have plenty of time to fill with some quality time with animals! I also hop on these apps when traveling, and really whenever I have some extra time in my day. I have no pets living with me currently so this means plenty of space for one who needs a temporary home :) I have boarded dogs, cats, and have done sittings at others as well. Being a hiker and active means plenty of walks throughout the day

Trustworthy, reliable, and always ready with a treat (or two), I make sure your pets feel right at home while you're away. Think of me as your furry (and hooved) family’s favorite human!

I’m neat, organized, and always follow the guidelines you provide to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.

Above all, your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I’ll treat them like my own, with love and care every step of the way. Please note for the safety of all pets and people proof of your pet’s up to date vaccination records will be required.

About: Hello there! My name is Donia, but you can call me Nia! I have a passion for animal caretaking and rescue and am pursuing a career in dog grooming while fostering and rescuing in my free time. I am currently working part time at a grooming shop in addition to dog walking and other pet sitting. Believe me, as a dog mom having been held responsible for my pets from the young age of 10, I understand how hard it can be to keep up with the hastle. I have taken care of many different types of pets with different levels of neediness from puppies to elders to special needs dogs and even cats, rabbits, and hamsters. I am known as my neighborhood "dog whisperer". I love providing care for animals in need and would love to give a helping hand to anyone in need. I am also dog and cat first aid certified! Thank you for considering me to help you out and thank you for trusting me with your pets! I am currently working part time and am able to request any day off if given advance notice. I can also care for any animals after work by 3pm. I have a fenced in yard with four friendly dogs, a large home that is able to have separated space if needed. In a client's home I treat their house with respect and leave everything cleaner than when I found it. I treat every single pet as if they were my own!

About: I’ve taken care of my cats and dogs since I was around 16-17 years old. I love all cats and dogs all the same. I’m good with old, young, big, small dogs. I’ve had them all. More recently my older dog was diagnosed with diabetes, so I’m familiar with giving insulin shots as well! I’m a full time graduate counseling student and am busy Tuesday- Friday, but other than that I am free! I will work what’s best with you! I would go to your home. I am big on communicating, and treating your pets as my own. I am also big on reliability. I would not want an unreliable pet sitter!

Robyn and Ray were amazing. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were caring for our dogs while we were away. They treated them like they were their own dogs. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a dog walker or sitter!!
