“Kiyoko was willing to take boomer out for a walk in between rain storms and I appreciate her being able to come on short notice. She was very pleasant and professional and boomer liked her. I would definitely ask her to walk boomer again.”
“Meredith was prompt and was very considerate. Since this was their first meeting, it was important for them to get to know each other. Meredith was very attentive and asked questions about Koda’s personality. Koda received her well. Looking forward to having Meredith back!”
“Andrew is so great with our dog Pepper! Pepper is always very excited to see him and go on walks with him. My husband and I are super grateful to have the extra help as we prepare to welcome our new baby.”
“Amanda was fantastic! She treated my fur babies like they were her own. She was incredibly accommodating and helpful and professional. I felt completely at ease knowing she would be caring for my pets. She even went above and beyond by allowing me to borrow her doggie stroller for my elderly and blind doggie to use so he wouldn’t feel left out when they went for a walk with my younger dog. I highly recommend her services and I will definitely ask for her services again in the future.”
About: What sets me apart is being home full-time to provide constant companionship, plus having a friendly French bulldog who's great with other dogs for socialization and play. My two teenage boys absolutely love pets and will provide even more attention and interaction throughout the day. My securely fenced yard gives pets plenty of safe exercise space, and I have specific experience with French bulldogs and brachycephalic breeds, including understanding their special needs around breathing, temperature, and exercise limits. This knowledge also helps me provide attentive care for senior dogs or pets with special requirements. Pet care fits seamlessly into my work-from-home routine. I start with morning walks or feeding, then take natural breaks throughout the day for quick walks or play sessions between meetings. The flexibility lets easily give extra attention when needed. I provide pet care in both my home and clients' homes, depending on what works best for each pet and family. In my home, I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can play safely and get plenty of exercise. My friendly French bulldog loves having companions and is great with other dogs, so visiting pets get both human attention and canine socialization.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all ages; 7 months to 15 years old. I take joy in giving your pup or kitty my time and making them feel as comfortable as they can in my home or your home. If that means playing with them all throughout the day, cuddling on the couch, going on walks, or giving more time and attention then I am happy as long as the pets are satisfied. I want the animals that I watch to feel safe and happy, as if their owners were home. I am open to pet sitting in your home if that works better but my preference is to bring them to my home. When staying at a clients house I like to get familiar with the yard and space so I know of any places your pet may hide away or rest. Some times our pets like to nap in places that we would not suspect and I want to make sure I can keep track of your pet at all times while in my care. I am flexible with hours during the week and weekends. At this time, I am available almost all hours. Please contact me 3 days prior so I can meet your loving pet. My yard is fenced in with a gate. I will manage daily potty breaks and walks regardless of the temperatures. Play time as needed will be provided.
About: From puppy zoomies to senior snuggles, I’ve seen (and loved) it all. I’ve raised dogs of my own and been the go-to sitter for family and friends for years. Reliable, active, patient, and always ready for belly rubs or a good game of fetch. Based in a pet-loving neighborhood full of trails and parks—tail wags are guaranteed. 🐾 Like so many others, I was recently laid off—and around the same time, I lost the coolest dog anyone could ask for. With more time on my hands and a lot of love still to give, I decided to lean into what I’ve always been great at: caring for animals. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for friends and family, and now I’m offering that same love and reliability to others. My daughter is my little sidekick and loves helping out with walks, belly rubs, and all things furry. For both of us, pet care isn’t just a task—it’s a bright spot in our day and something we truly enjoy. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priority is keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, medication (if needed), and of course, plenty of playtime and cuddles. In your home, I respect your space and your pet’s comfort zones, making sure they feel secure while you're away. If they're with me, they get a cozy, pet-friendly environment, lots of attention, and access to nearby parks and trails for daily adventures. Every pet is treated like family—because that’s what they are.

“Serrah and Brian were the best! We were out of town for two weeks and we knew right away that our dog was in good hands. They came over on weekdays for lunchtime walks. In the post walk pictures Bourbon always looked like he had a good walk. Their communication was quick and their Rover card updates were thorough and much appreciated.”
About: I’ve taken great care of pets ever since I was 10 years old. We had pets when I was even younger than that and my love for them has only grown throughout the years. I would love to become a veterinarian to help animals and give them the love and care they deserve! I have had multiple bookings in the past, all of which had great results! These bookings have included overnight boarding and drop in visits and I also offer dog walking! I no longer offer dog boarding due to a recent move, but I still offer dog walking and drop ins. I currently work and am usually off around 10, although I do have to stay longer sometimes if need be. Times after 11 -11:30 usually work great for me and if anything changes for any specific date, i’ll be sure to get in contact right away! Being that I no longer offer dog boarding, drop ins and dog walking allow me to care for your pets in an environment they are comfortable in!
About: Hi! I'm Claire, I was raised on a farm and have always been surrounded by animals! I'm an equestrian and absolutely love dogs/cats/anything on four legs. I've raised 4 different dogs from puppies all the way to adulthood! I've done everything from basic manners to taking agility training classes with them. I currently live in South Land Park! I'm just down the street from Land Park, and if you walk the opposite direction theres Partner Park Dog Park 7 minutes away. We'll spend time throwing the ball, sunbathing, maybe even getting in some extra belly scratches. I have experience with both small and large really strong dogs! My 65lb. Labrador Retriever can attest to this. I am also able to take care of other pets in the home who may not need walks and are caged. Just let me know!
About: I have had pets growing up and enjoy them and their company. Oddly enough while walking anywhere if there is an animal it will approach me. My wife says I have "Disney Princess" skills. I have two dogs that I care for everyday throughout the day, however, for others my evenings are the best times to during the week, and anytime during the weekend. I ensure I have a clean home, and monitor what my dogs are around to include knowing what can and cannot come into the house. Having a safe and clean environment allows for a helathy life for pets who are family.
“Marilyn was great with my roommate and I’s dogs. I loved getting the update pics and how quickly my dogs warmed up to her. She was very trust worthy and I will definitely be utilizing her services again ☺️”
About: I started pet sitting as a preteen for my neighbors, to working full-time at a vet while dog walking and pet sitting on the side, to now being completely self-employed doing what I love!

Brenda L.
“Brenda has assisted us in watching our dog Rocky, a 3yr old Goldendoodle. She reached out to confirm details on what Rocky’s schedule is throughout the day and abided by that. Since Rocky is high energy and needs his exercise she took him on two walks and even let him out in the backyard to run around. You can tell she has a true passion and love for animals. While we were gone she even helped with our gecko. She has been back a couple of times and Rocky is definitely happy with her.”

Christine E.
“Christine has helped me a ton. I have a 2 year old dog that loves playing and going on walks but when I’m not home I can always count on Christine to come over and take care of my pup. I never had a problem with Christine and she always updates me on everything when she’s looking after my dog. I would recommend her for those that need someone to look after their pets!”
Claire R.
“There are very few people I would trust to watch over and walk my dog, and Claire is one of the people I trust the most. My dog absolutely loves Claire and she has taken extremely great care of him whenever she has been with him. Claire is passionate about dogs and has her own dog, a black lab, who she has loved and cared for since she was a small puppy and she has gone out of her way to make sure her dog receives the best care possible no matter the circumstances. I have been with her when she interacts with other dogs, and she treats them as her own. She shows love, patience, and forms a special connection with every dog she meets. Dogs are naturally attracted to her and she is extremely reliable and responsible. She has a gift with animals and I highly recommend her.”

“"I cannot recommend my dog walker enough! They provide exceptional service and have been an absolute blessing to both me and my furry companion. Not only do they go above and beyond with their attention and care for my dog, but they also consistently demonstrate professionalism and reliability. My pup always comes back home happy and tired after their walks, which is a clear testament to the quality of service provided. I feel so fortunate to have found such a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker. If you're in need of someone to take care of your furry friend, look no further!"”
Little Pocket dog parents share their Rover experiences
Erica did a great job with my 2 corgis on their afternoon walks! I reached out to her last minute, and she was able to accommodate my last minute walk. She was very good at following directions, and my pup seemed to have a great time with her! Will definitely book again in the future, given her flexibility, attention to detail, and overall great experience!
Cannot recommend Lance enough! We’ve had some previous not so great experiences on rover however Lance was great and took care of our fur babies amazingly and followed every instruction perfectly! If you are looking for someone who is reliable and is kind to your fur babies then consider booking Lance as we did!
