Dog Walkers in Lakeville, CT

“Claire was punctual and communicative! Our dog, Honey, was very excited to see Claire and go for her walks while we were out of town, with family members watching Honey! We would definitely utilize Claire's services again in the future. Thank you, Claire, for taking such good care of Honey!”

“My Diego is a senior dog and Cheri is wonderfully sweet and nurturing to him. He is always excited to see her and cuddle right up to her for lots of belly rubs and love. She is very patient on walks with him when he loves to let his nose take over and sniff the entire neighborhood. She gives him all of his meds with meals. She does a great job leaving the house tidy, probably cleaner than I left it! Under Cheri's care, Diego doesn't get anxious when I have to leave him and that eases my mind greatly to know he's happy and his needs are met.”

“Janice was great with our pitbull mix! Glad we found a new friend for Hestur :)”

“Shelly was awesome. Long time local resident. Highly recommended.”

“Danyelle has watched both of my dogs many times and taken such great care of them! My black lab, Jack, was an elderly dog who needed extra attention with his medications and assistance getting in and out of the house and I never worried that he wasn't in good hands. She also took the time to play with my younger dog Bailey to make sure she had enough exercise and interaction. Danyelle is trustworthy and polite and I would highly reccomend her!!”

“The care and consideration that Pamela gives my super senior and special needs pup goes above and beyond and expectations I’ve had in the years of dog walkers I’ve worked with. You know your fur baby is in good hands when Pamela is involved!”

“Having entrusted my precious pets to Mckayla, I've been consistently impressed by her unwavering dedication and genuine affection for my animals. Mckayla's meticulous attention to detail ensures that my pets receive the utmost care and comfort in my absence. She goes above and beyond to cater to each of my pet's unique needs, creating a safe and nurturing environment. I wholeheartedly recommend Mckayla as a pet sitter for anyone seeking compassionate and reliable care for their furry companions.”

About: I’m a pre-veterinary college student with a love for all animals, but especially dogs! I’ve been dog sitting + walking for family and friends since I was 14, and have two dogs and a cat of my own. I really enjoy pet care, so I’m trying to gather a few more clients! I have 3 repeat clients that I’ve met through rover, and I’ve enjoyed having their pups as a constant in my life! It’s so special to be the part of the week that a dog looks forward to!! Booking a few weeks in advance is a good way to ensure I work around YOUR schedule! I take pride in caring for your pets like they are my own! As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of not only respecting your dog’s boundaries, but also the rules you have for your dog! If you or your pet need to be accommodated in any way I’ll do my best to make it happen!

“Angelica is one of the best sitters I’ve dealt with. She’s very outstanding and great with communication. My two American bully’s love her presence! She’s full of love and is a very caring individual full of patients!”

“Mary Ann has had dogs all her life. She has a loving and caring personality that comes across in all her interactions with others. I'm a two year ROVER sitter and she is very familiar with how it works. I assure everyone she would be a great hostess for your loved pets.”

“Melissa would be an excellent dog caregiver. I’ve seen her take care of her family dog along with her 2 cats, turtle, fish, and birds. She loves animals and I have no doubt that she will be anything less than amazing when it comes to being a dog caregiver with Rover.”

About: I have owned dogs, cats and more my entire life. My professional experience is extensive. Most recently employed at a local 24-hour emergency animal hospital. I have bred and nurtured three litters (dogs and cats!), pet sat (including overnights) worked for a therapy animal rehabilitation group, a groomer/freelanced, walked dogs, volunteered at rescues and 2 farms. I also have experience with senior pets, aggressive breeds, special needs, and medical problems. I am just as trained for safety as I am for fun! I even walk my own cat on a leash! My schedule is flexible. I am capable of running with your dog and engaging in active play. My goal will be to entertain your pet as much as he/she wants, so that you never feel like it is missing out while you are away. I love to provide picture updates so you see your special friend. I happily have several pets in life; Ponyo, Buddy, Blue, and Boba, as well at two dogs named Arie and Rascal. Any day I interact with an animal is a great day. Each one of my pets has their own special diet, they enjoy supervised outside time, and receive lots of love. In your home, I will treat your pets as though their are my own.

“Lauren is an amazing pet caregiver! She is assertive, responsible, and very compassionate to animals. She has taken care of my dog, Luna, while I was away for a week and I got frequent updates and photos that assured me that my dog was in Lauren's great hands. She treats others' pets just like her own - her dog Bowie is one of the most well cared for pups out there!”

“Before I knew about Ashley, I had to cancel my trip due to inadequate boarding here. Ashley didn’t hesitate to care for my dogs during my last trip and did an outstanding job with them. She came to visit them before my departure and they seemed to bond with her immediately which is a good sign. Mainly, there were no problems and they were in great shape when I returned. I’m planning on using Ashley’s services again in the fall.”

“I have had a Petsitting business for 23 years and have had Keebie help me many times . She’s always been dependable and trustworthy, I’ve learned a lot from her over the years about pet food and other products. Her knowledge and intuitive understanding of animals make her an ideal person for Rover.”

“Very attentive and conscientious!!!! Our 2 guys were in excellent hands! Thank you!”

“Nicole is a wonderful dog sitter. We recently moved to the area and are so happy to have her as our new go to sitter. She’s helped with a few last minute walks too when I had to stay in the city later than expected. Highly recommend.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Cody as our dog walker for our beloved Schnauzer, Jimmy. From the moment Cody steps through the door, it's clear that he has a genuine love for dogs, and his passion for what he does shines through in every interaction with our furry family member. One of the standout qualities about Cody is the quality time he dedicates to Jimmy during their walks. It's not just a stroll around the block – Cody goes above and beyond to ensure that Jimmy gets the exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization he needs. We've noticed a significant positive change in Jimmy's behavior since Cody started walking him. Not only is he physically tired, but he also seems calmer and more content overall. What sets Cody apart is his ability to connect with dogs on a personal level. It's evident that he takes the time to understand each dog's unique personality and needs. Jimmy, in particular, adores Cody, and his tail wags with excitement every time he hears Cody's approaching footsteps. This, in turn, has made a tremendous impact on our ability to spend more quality time with Jimmy. As busy professionals, my husband and I appreciate Cody's reliability and consistency. He has never missed a scheduled walk, and we can always count on him to provide the utmost care for Jimmy. The peace of mind we have knowing that our dog is in Cody's capable hands allows us to focus on our work during the day, knowing that Jimmy is getting the attention and exercise he deserves. Cody's communication is another commendable aspect of his service. He keeps us updated with adorable photos and brief summaries of their adventures, making us feel connected to Jimmy even when we're not at home. It's evident that Cody takes pride in his work, and his commitment to the well-being of the dogs in his care is truly heartwarming. In conclusion, we wholeheartedly recommend Cody to anyone seeking a dog walker who goes above and beyond. His passion for animals, reliability, and the positive impact he has had on our Schnauzer's well-being make him an invaluable part of our furry family's life. Thank you, Cody, for being the paws-itively perfect dog walker!”

“Alexander walked our Golden Retriever "Bruce" 2-3 times every week. He is punctual, reliable, and is really good with dogs - especially big, high energy dogs! I highly recommend Alexander and am disappointed he moved across the country otherwise he would still be looking after our beloved dog. You can trust Alexander with your dog(s) and know they will come home exhausted from the walk. Paradiso family + Bruce”

“Ashley is very sweet and patient with Io. Our dog tends to be stand offish when he first meets stranger. She gave him time and space he needed to feel comfortable with her. I would recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a warm & caring buddy for your pets.”
