“This was our first experience we had working with a dog walker . Rachel absolutely loves dogs. She happily met with us a couple of times for a meet and greet. Once at her house and once at ours. We loved that she sent pictures, showed us the walking route, and gave us a doggie report after each walk. The days she was scheduled to walk were hot and her flexibility to come earlier than planned was highly appreciated. We will certainly use Rachel again.”

About: I have been pet owners for years & there’s nothing I love more than spending time with animals. I love to take walks to the dog park & have a good game of fetch. I also take pictures of pets that I taken care of before so let me know if that’s something you would like. I currently work from home so I spend all day with my pets. My job lets me be able to still take my dog on multiple walks a day, have play time, go to the park & more. The play area is fenced in, I can easily crate your dog if needed. In my home I can provide everything your pet needs like if it was their own home and vice versa.

“Tre has become like family. He is always available to take care of Dax when I need and treats him as if he was his own. He’s very personable, responsible, reliable, accommodating to my crazy schedule and he will definitely continue to be my go-to.”

“I had such a great experience! One of my dogs is usually very shy around new people, but she was so gentle and patient with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog walker, and I plan on reaching out again if I need help in the future!”

“Maria really goes above and beyond with communication, care, and cute photos!! She is a lifesaver and always makes sure my dog has everything she needs to be comfortable after her walks!! She’s also been super great with keeping consistency with walk training which is a huge help!”


About: My experience is marked by personal and professional work with animals. I was the team lead overseeing operations at a dog care facility for two and a half years, where I worked firsthand with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperments in group play, one on one enrichment, and individual training sessions. I specialize in caring for reactive and behaviorally challenged dogs, particularly rescues. I am capable of administering medication in any oral fashion including gentle pilling, as well as supportive training, senior care, and providing baths (including curly fur types) and nail trims. I have a varied job schedule that provides sporadic extended free time, especially during the summer. I accept pet care clients based on my availability, so I am available for week-of bookings and advanced bookings. When visiting pets, I recognize that I am in their home and act accordingly. Prior to a visit, I make every effort to understand your pet's daily routine so that I can provide a stable, familiar routine while visiting. Additionally, I make bonding a top priority, and take time to get to know each pet I work with so that I can provide individualized care and work to become a trusted person on their terms.
About: Hi there! My name is Ana. I know the feeling and uncertainty of leaving of my pet with anyone when I travel or need it. That’s why I started Rover. My goal is to make sure you can be confident leaving your pet in safe company and companionship while you enjoy or be fully present in whatever it is you are leaving for. ***Big on taking in only 1-2 pets at time, my reason for this is I take my care for the animals seriously. I want to give your pet the attentiveness it deserves and extra care.*** I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Starting with my own pets, then helping family and friends, and eventually fostering cats/kittens and dogs/pupies for several years. I’m deeply experienced with all kinds of personalities:from playful puppies to shy rescues and I know how to make animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, or special attention for nervous pets, I treat every animal like they’re my own. You can count on me for reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life,whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just spending quiet time with animals, it’s second nature to me. I’m used to adjusting my routine to meet each pet’s needs, whether that means early morning walks, medication schedules, or extra cuddle time. I work from home, so that’s super helpful. Also my fiance wfh a lot so he loves helping! I treat every pet like a little soul in my care—whether they’re staying with me or I’m in their space. In my home, I create a calm, cozy vibe with safe spaces, soft spots to rest, and plenty of love (plus playtime, if they’re into that!). When I’m in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel grounded and secure. I move with their energy—whether that means zoomies, belly rubs, or quiet companionship.
“Kelly is the best! She’s on time and reliable. Our dog loves his walks with Kelly. She goes above and beyond. Great with our elderly kitty as well. We will be booking Kelly again!!”
About: Hi my name is Katelyn but I go by Nova! I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 8 years old and can’t imagine not having one with me. I now have just 2 cats and a bully mix. I’ve taken care of mainly herding mixes so I can safely say that dogs that are “a lot of dog “ are my specialty. Positive reinforcement based Training has also been a special interest of mine for a few years now and so I’m quite knowledgeable on that subject as well! I work full time pet sitting and dog walking! Because of this I’m pretty much always available to care for or walk your fur baby! I will care for your animals with the utmost care, responsibility, safety, and detail as if they were my own. I’m unable to provide boarding services at the moment but I still do pet sitting!
About: Though I have never gotten paid to pet sit, I have raised many cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and even a pig! Even though animals cannot speak to us in the way we speak to each other, I tend to always have an idea of the needs in animals! It’s all about body language! I have never been scared of any type of pet, no matter the size or background. Booking with me means you know that your pet is in trustworthy hands. I am currently a college student full time. I can only work after 5, and can go until 11 as needed. I am available Sunday nights at the same times, but not Saturdays, unless it is early in the morning or an emergency! I have a fenced in yard, but my dog is trained to not leave our yard unless with a leash anyways. I have also had dogs on lots of land, so I understand if some have more wiggle room. My cats are indoor, but I have had outdoor cats so I do know how to take care of them as well. I can watch any type of animal, I just need specific directions of it is a senior animal or requires any special medication/food(dosage).
About: I grew up in a pet loving household with cats, dogs and the occasional hamster or two. My husband and I now have a sassy 13 year old calico named Mittens and our newest addition is a rescue puppy called Leia. We also recently had to say goodbye to our senior dog Arlie. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats throughout their life stages and changing needs. I work for myself so my schedule is very flexible. Afternoons specifically I am usually wide open and love getting a good walk in with a pup! My weekends tend to be very flexible as well. I treat your pets as I do my own with lots of care, attention and love. After a life spent around pets I'm very good at reading their emotions and will do my best to have a fun and safe time together.

“Stephen was so incredible good with my pups! I liked getting feedback after every walk on behavior and their eating. The pups look like they enjoyed themselves tremendously! Will book with Stephen again”

About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of animals since I could remember! I currently have a cat and rabbit of my own who are 4 and 10 years old (I know, pretty old for a rabbit!!) ! I’ve taken care of multiple family, friends, and neighbors dogs/cats/small pets for the past 3 years as a side hustle while I’m in college, and I try to meet my animals as often as I can between classes. I strive to be as reliable as I can for my furry friends and aim to be more experienced by the end of the year! I currently have open availability for all your furry friends and would love to be booked by you! I just got out of school and have extra time on my hands! I am happy to follow any requests given by the owner! Clear instructions are very helpful and will allow me to take the very best care of your pet!
Lakewood dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover and Anvesha was amazing! She exceeded my expectations. She’s passionate about dogs and is willing to go above and beyond for the well being of my dog. She was great at communicating which made this experience less anxious for me. We got so lucky with her! Thank you, i genuinely appreciate you Anvesha!

Amanda is great and super communicative. She was also able to accommodate a last minute walk for Finley which gave me peace of mind while I was away from home. I have already booked my next visit with Amanda and will definitely be using her services in the future!

Ariane received a key to my apartment day one of our first visit, I was confident in her ability’s to take great care of my dog. She was on point, professional,communicative, and attentive to detail. I was very impressed with all the questions asked and care and thought into making sure all bases were covered. My dog loves her and I receive the happiest of photos! I will continue using Ariane in comfort knowing I’m receiving the best care for my dog for his lunch walks!
