4. Christina M.
“Christina is so awesome! She has been walking my 1 year old dog and he absolutely adores her. My dog is still young and has bad behaviors like pulling and biting on the leash that Christina handles very well. She is very reliable and gives a lot of love to the dogs she watches!”
5. Kalani J.

“Hannah was amazing. On time and so sweet to my baby Bird Dog.”
11. Ria M.
“I have known Ria for many years. She has taken care of and walked my dog Ramona - a Border Collie/ Lab mix - frequently over that period of time. Ria is without a doubt a truly loving and dedicated dog walker. Her bond with Ramona is amazing. In addition to walking Ramona, Ria has cared for her when I have been away. I also know she has walked and taken care of other dogs in my local neighborhood. Ria is compassionate and caring and would be an incredible asset to Rover. I would most certainly her as a great addition to the Rover family!”

15. Tara G.
“Tara was great! She saved the day last minute when our regular dog walker fell through before a vacation. Tara was communicative and handled our dogs with love and care. I would definitely book again!”
16. Emma E.
“Emma was great. My puppy is still working on some manners but Emma took this in stride and was willing to reinforce not pulling in leash etc. when walking her. I would/will hire her again.”
17. Donovan S.
“We have booked Donovan multiple times now for walks for our 4 month old puppy, and he was been wonderful each time. He is quick to respond, always remembers our requests (lunch time, etc.), and even if our puppy isn't in the mood to walk, Donovan will take the time to play with him indoors and give him some love. I also appreciate that he took the time for a meet-and-greet in advance.”
18. Taylor B.
“Taylor has been the most reliable and helpful pet care for my dog, Rosie. We utilize her service when my partner is out of town for work, and I can always count on her to take care of my pup. She is the best, and will always go above and beyond with pet updates. Recommend to everyone!”
19. ROBERTA M.
“Roberta is a fantastic, kind and enthusiastic human being. She has got a genuine love for animals and she is extremely reliable. She always puts dedication and loving care every time she looks after a pet. No doubt she would be the best fit for any pet-sitting need!”
20. Kaitlynn C.
“Once again Kaitlynn comes through! Our pooch just loves her and misses her! Kaitlynn is just great with our Bailey, who for some mysterious reason, behaves so well with her new walking buddy.”
