“This was my first time using Rover and it’s been amazing! Mai was quick to respond and book walks for my dog. She worked with me to figure out times that would work and She sent pics and up dates during the walk! I’m so glad I found this app and Mia! 💖”
“Faith came last minute on the same day of booking which is truly appreciated! She took my dog to her favorite park & sent in some photos! She was very punctual & kind. Thank you!”
“First, I will start off by saying that I don't give 5 stars lightly. My expectations are very high. Jen met and exceeded my expectations. I didn't think a mere mortal could do this. ;-) This was my first time booking through Rover. When I had any questions Jen was very prompt with replies and made me feel at ease. She also helped with navigating some Rover nuances. Jen showed up within our agreed upon timeframe. She checked in and out for each visit. She sent great pictures of both dogs every day, and she sent Rover cards very promptly. By the end of the week I didn't have a worry in the world about my dogs. If you love your pets then you should give Jen a chance to spend some time with them. They'd be lucky to have her.”

What truly stands out is how well he follows our care instructions. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about our dog’s well-being, and that gives us peace of mind. Our dog is not only safe but also incredibly happy after spending time with Tyler. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!

Even our cat, who can be picky, absolutely loves her. Chloe also works at an emergency vet clinic, which gave us extra peace of mind. Her rates are very reasonable, and we highly recommend her!”
“Kaelee was great with Maggie. Maggie can be quite shy. She understood this and made sure to spend some time playing with her before she took her for a walk so she felt comfortable and relaxed. I’ll definitely use her again in the future for walking Maggie!”

About: A true animal lover since birth, I have always felt very connected to the natural world and have a great empathy for all creatures great and small. I began training and caretaking my own dogs at age 10. I fostered for years as an adult before adopting my Hawaiian rescue dog. Friends and family have relied on me to assist with their pets a lot in the past few years. My very social and intelligent Border Collie has assisted me in training several puppies, helped to socialize shy dogs and taught dogs to swim. I'm currently working part time while I transition back to PA from Hawaii. Looking to enjoy summer time outside with doggies as much as possible. I will take dogs to local trails, parks and on neighborhood walks. I am happy to come check on the fur babies and cheer them up. Once I am familiar with the dogs, I would be happy to take them to the dog park or on play dates with my Uber friendly border collie mix.
About: Our dog children deserve the best of my experience as a trainer, caregiver and animal lovers will give you safety, I care for my dog angels like mine because they are my happiness therapy. I have plenty of time to play and exercise for your best friend and free him from the strees of confinement on Sundays, fully available or during the week, your comfort is my priority.

“Allyson always responds to messages quickly and when I forget to book, she often will reach out to see if I need Ruby to be walked. From the photos she sends, Ruby seems to really enjoy her walks with Allyson. I could not ask for a better person to help out with Ruby when I can not make it home to let her out.”
“This was my first time using Rover for my dog and I couldn't have asked for a better experience, thanks to Julie. Excellent communication, punctual, very warm towards my dog, and the distance covered during the walk let me know my dog was getting good exercise and not just a leisurely stroll. Thanks so much, Julie!”

Kyleigh was so patient and understanding with my dog who is nervous when meeting people for the first time. She took the time to bond with her and gave her space when she needed it. Kyleigh is attuned to a dog’s specific needs, and I would recommend her to any pet’s care!
Julie is extremely patient with my two high strung German shepherds, and quickly won them over. I appreciate not ever needing to worry about them when Julie is taking care of them and they are always so excited when she comes to take them out for walks. Julie has been walking my space cadets for me for over a year now when I am working long hours and I can not stress enough how thankful I am for her.
