“I can’t recommend Hali enough! She does an amazing job with my energetic pup—by the time I get home, my dog is completely slumped and satisfied. It’s clear she gets the exercise and attention she needs during their walks. After just a week of consistent outings, I’m already seeing an improvement in her behavior at home. I feel so much more at ease knowing she’s in such good hands!”

About: Working with dogs is the absolute best job! Over the years I’ve cultivated my love for animals by caring for a variety of breads including Dalmatian, Labrador Retriever, Australian Shepherd, Yorkshire Terrier, Chihuahua, Beagle, and many more. I have had the opportunity to walk, board, and sit for clients, friends, family, and shelters. Currently employed as a dog handler, I handle over 50 different dogs ranging in all different breads, size, and temperament. With over fifteen years experience with dogs, I understand how to care for and handle a dog properly. While your dog is under my care, I will treat them as my own. Being a dog owner myself, I understand just how special your dog is to you. I would love the opportunity to board, walk, or sit for your dog. 🐾
“I would highly recommend Lilly if your looking for a reliable and caring dog walker/sitter. She has always gone above and beyond for our dog Kylo and she is also very understanding when it comes to a schedule change. My job continued changing my scheduled days due to the pandemic, Lilly was able to figure out a way to still make it work for us. Which we really appreciated. She even contacted Rover for us to ensure we got refunded for days that we may have cancelled. Not to mention, she also makes notes after every walk to make sure we always in the loop with Kylo. Lilly is the best!”

About: My name is Jorineè and I am a certified veterinarian’s assistant. I have been certified for about 3 years now. I’ve received my experience while working at a veterinary hospital to help pursue my passion for helping animals. I am pretty flexible this is my full time job. I am fully available throughout the week. Your pet will definitely be in good hands. Contact me in advance because I am always able to work around schedules. I will follow directions given by pet parents and if any special needs are needed to be met I am always willing to accommodate your pets needs.
About: Hi! My name is Irene and I have always loved animals since I was a child. Growing up I fed and cared for stray cats and cared for small animals of my own such as birds, Guinea Pigs, and hamsters. I also helped my senior neighbors with caring for their dogs. During my teenage years up until recently, I cared for my own dog, a spunky Jack Russell Terrier. Our favorite thing to do together was going for walks and exploring. I had the pleasure of caring for my precious girl for 12 years. I have 6+ years of experience working professionally with animals as a vet assistant. I can care for your pets mainly on weekends and sometimes throughout the week. If you need to book me outside my availability I could possibly work something out if given a notice in advanced! I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes. When walking dogs, they will be leashed all times and prefer a non-retractable leash as they are more safe. If your cat is an indoor/outdoor cat, I will prefer to keep all cats indoor while in my care.

I am highly attentive to detail and will ensure your pet is kept safe while they’re under my care. This will involve following my clients’ safety guidelines. You know your home and your dog best!
About: For the past 15 years, I grew up caring for my 2 family dogs. I have experience with potty training, teaching simple tricks, administering oral medications, and caring for elderly dogs. I also have experience caring for my sibling's 2 large Dobermen. 4 years ago I adopted my first kitty, and I leash trained her and taught her some simple tricks. I feel confident taking care of any furry baby! I recently graduated and have lots of new free time! My schedule is open and very flexible, and I am confident I can accomodate lots of pet schedules. I aim to follow your care instructions exactly as you would care for your pet. I also enjoy running and would love to take your dog on a run to burn off some extra energy!
“David went above and beyond today. I forgot to update my address in the Rover platform and he went to our old house. As soon as I let him know what happened, he quickly updated the appointment and made his way to our new place. I so appreciate this - my dad is not able to walk my dog and Sam was very happy to see David, since we are repeat customers. I so appreciate his thoughtfulness and care. He is also very attentive and responsive.”
About: I've taken care of dogs personally and for friends for several years. I've had a puppy and an older dog, so I am familiar with the needs of dogs at all walks of life. I am reliable and would love to give some love to your pup! I am currently working part time during the week and mostly from home. On the weekend I am very flexible. I would be able to morph my schedule to meet your pups needs and hang out with them as much as possible! I live in a home that does not have a fenced in yard so I would take your dog on long walks for exercise and fresh air (good for me to lol). I have plenty of space to crate your pup if that is what they need as well. I also have two roommates who love dogs and would be able to love on your pup even more!
About: I have owned dogs my entire life since I was a little girl. I have never gone without one. I have owned canines that range in size from toy Chihuahuas to Great Danes. My Chihuahua and Great Dane were the best of friends. I have also cared for many breeds with a variety of different needs. I have a love for dogs of all breeds and ages! I am currently working from my home and am available to be at home spending time with your baby while you’re away. I have two wonderful children aged 8 and 13 that are always excited and looking forward to the next furry visitor we get to pamper. I typically only board one dog at a time so I have ample opportunity to provide your dog with the love and attention they deserve. I have a large fenced in yard to ensure your baby stays safe and provides lots of room for them to run and play. I also have lots of room indoors for your dog to feel right at home with our family.
