“She did a great job - very timely, sent updates with pictures, and my dog seemed happy when I got home! She event went our of her way to help me put food out from inside, which I had forgotten to do that morning. Will be back for more business - thanks Krista.”
“Caroline is an outstanding dog walker! She instantly built rapport with our dog Goldie and listened to my instructions (to not have her walk too close to other dogs).I felt Goldie was well taken care of during her walks. She also took and sent several photos. A+”
“Artem is Osito’s best friend! They have been going on two walks per week together for nearly a year now, and Artem’s arrivals at our house are always a highlight of Osito’s week. Artem is communicative, prompt, and friendly. We’re so lucky to have found such a good walking pal for our pup!”
“Michelle and her husband were amazing with my dog and BD! I got pictures of every walk and she make sure that my dog was comfortable even when it was raining a lot outside, will definitely contact them again for future trips!”
“Anna is amazing with Chikoo! Anna is natural with dogs since she has had dogs since she was a child. She is caring yet firm with him. We absolutely loved her. Chikoo absolutely loves her. I feel that I can trust her 100% with him.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, lizards, hamsters, birds and fish ever since I was a little kid! I love animals and they have always enjoyed my company as well. :) I am currently in-between jobs, and I can be available at any time in Los Altos, CA starting end of April! I look forward to being in contact! I will be able to provide your pet with any kind of service they need. This can range from walks, baths, meals and playtime! Let me know which service you would like me to provide!
About: I have years of experience with pet care! Worked in a Daycare/ Boarding/ grooming facility for 2 years! Have a big heart for all furr babies💕 My schedule is very flexible through the week, with it being so flexible I’m able to give all the time to your pet and its needs and more! Caring for pets in someone else’s home means following the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, exercise, and any special care needs. I make sure the pet has fresh water, a clean environment, and enough attention to stay comfortable and stress-free. I also respect the home by keeping it tidy, securing the space, and communicating any updates or concerns.
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats from a very young age. I lived with two cats for most of my life so feel very comfortable being around and taking care of them. Recently returned to the US after living abroad. My schedule is fairly open at this time. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I’m very cautious and respectful of others’ spaces. While caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to follow all your instructions, keep things clean, and ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable. Your pet’s well-being and your home’s safety are my top priorities.
About: Since a very young age I have always wanted to get a dog, except it was not the easiest to convince my parents. Instead I would offer to walk and take care of pets from friends and family to prove that I could be responsible with pets. I would dog walk and board dogs from time to time, and now have picked up the amount of times that I would take care of these dogs. From more referrals to consistent clients coming back to me, I enjoy making these dogs happy as their owners may be away for some time. I currently work in Real Estate under an individual agent in Los Altos part time. I go to the gym in the early mornings where I usually walk or take them out to use the bathroom before leaving. If I need to go somewhere I will take them with them if they are willing to. If it comes to it, I will come back between errands to come let them out and check in on them. I have a fenced yard with a smaller dog who tends to mind her business, but will play with other dogs in the afternoon or early mornings. I make sure that the dogs I take care of need everything that they need from more than just the essentials.
“Courtney is very professional, thoughtful and gentle, with my energetic Golden Retriever. She helped us in an over heat week. She planned routes with shade, and kept a very close eye to the dog during the walks. We will definitely book again!”
About: I’m experienced with cats and dogs Own 3 kitties My daughter is a dog trainer and boards at her facility I used to foster dogs for the Humane Society I work for myself in the beauty industry which has been hit hard by covid. Need some side work to keep busy. Exercise for me and a dog at the same time makes sense… I’m experienced with all animals and have had a dog that liked to run away. So I’m wise to the tricks No one will get lost
About: I’ve been talking care of animals since I was 11. I had big dogs growing up and several cats in my adult life. As I’m unable to have pets in my current living space I’d love to come love and care for yours. Although I work full time I’m single and have no pets of my own so I have plenty of spare time to care and watch your pets. I work from home Mondays and Fridays and love to go on hikes during the weekends. I’m familiar with crate and reward based training. I stay off my phone and make sure to be present and looking out for your animal at all times.
About: Grew up with dogs of various breeds (many were rescue mixes). I am an attentive and responsible caregiver. I have experience with training puppies, grooming/ bathing, administering medicine, and caring for injured dogs on crate rest. Also have experience with anxious dogs. I study biology at the University of Michigan, hoping to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. Currently work part-time as a horse trainer and caretaker. I am currently only working a part-time job so I am available to care for your pet any day of the week. The afternoon (1-6pm), works best for me! I am willing to do whatever your pet needs while you are away, whether that be play-time with toys, a walk down the street, a bath, or cuddles! I am a huge animal-lover so know that I am probably having just as much fun as your pup! I am also willing to administer medicine/supplements and care for injured dogs.
Loyola dog parents share their Rover experiences
Caroline is an outstanding dog walker! She instantly built rapport with our dog Goldie and listened to my instructions (to not have her walk too close to other dogs).I felt Goldie was well taken care of during her walks. She also took and sent several photos. A+
Stacey came to our house to meet our somewhat tentative puppy before her first official visit. Our pup enjoyed her calm and kind personality. Stacey took her time with him on the first visit before taking him out on a walk. He looked very happy and at ease in the photos. I appreciate Stacey’s thoughtfulness and patience and look forward to having her back again.
Katelyn has walked my dog several times and is really fantastic with my dog, Penny. Penny can be a little slow to warm up and Katelyn takes time to make sure Penny is comfortable on their walks. I get photo updates and a summary of how the walk went each time. She was flexible with me asking to change dates due to my work schedule, always arrived on time and communicated if there would be any changes to the time of the walks. Definitely would recommend her to others!
Madison walked our Shiba Inu, Kona, for five days in a row while my husband was away on a business trip and the kids were home for the holidays. So it was honestly such a big help. Already at the meet and greet, I had a really good feeling. And more importantly, Kona did too. He was super comfortable with Madison from the start. After every walk, he came back happy and totally content, which made me feel so relieved. Madison is kind, reliable, and just very easy to communicate with. By the end of the week, even my kids were excited to say hi to her when she arrived. We’re really grateful we found her and I would absolutely book her again anytime we need help with Kona. Highly recommend ❤️
Nuray was amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone in the area. From the very beginning, she was super friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with. She sent tons of updates and photos and always replied quickly, which gave me so much peace of mind while Myka was in her care. I missed my girl a lot, and the continuous updates helped me so much, both in seeing her and knowing she was having a great vacation with Nuray! One thing that really stood out to me was how thoughtful and proactive Nuray is. When I mentioned that Myka is bloat-prone and Nuray wasn’t familiar with it, she immediately took the time to research it, ask questions, and make sure she fully understood how to give Myka the best and safest care possible. That level of effort meant the world to me. Since I mainly speak Swedish with Myka, Nuray even learned some Swedish to communicate better with her, which honestly blew me away. Myka also had an absolute blast! Nuray has access to a dog park where Myka got to run around and play with Millie (another dog who was there). They played fetch with her and sent pictures showing how much fun she was having. It was obvious that Nuray treats the dogs she watches like part of her family. And honestly, the pickup said it all. Myka started introducing me to everyone like she had already decided these people are now our family and they're coming with us home. That’s how comfortable and welcome Nuray made her feel. Myka got sad when she realized we weren’t staying there and even cried a little in the car as we were driving away. Nuray is kind, attentive, and genuinely cares. Your puppy will have an amazing time in her care and will truly be treated like part of the family. We will absolutely be booking with her again if I’m in the area!
Jhonatan was a fantastic dog walker for our Samoyed, Ptukha. He walked him for an hour every morning at 7 a.m. for a couple of weeks and was always punctual and professional. Ptukha was happy and well cared for, and we were very pleased with his service. Highly recommend!
