“We’ve used Jonathan a few times now to walk our older dog, Archer, when we’ve been away. Not only is he prompt, reliable and trustworthy, it’s clear he truly cares. We had some difficulty finding someone to walk Archer because he requires extra care and assistance having a BM. Jonathan was very patient as I trained and instructed him. Now, we have the utmost trust and peace of mind that Archer will be well cared for when we’re away or not able to. If I could give him 10 stars I would.”
“Xavier was great! He was on time and patient. I have two dogs with special needs and Xavier took care of them with no issue. He sent plenty of pictures and they clearly were very well taken care of. He was communicative and very helpful!”
“Gail was amazing!! She arrived early for Simon’s 1st walk and greeted us with a pleasant demeanor. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly Gail took control and made a fast connection with Simon. Simon’s happy wagging tail confirmed the feeling was mutual. To be clear, Simon is usually not eager to go on walks without his mommy, so I wasn’t surprise at his initial hesitation at the start of the walk, But Gail took control; and once Simon got to the bottom of the driveway, he was good! So proud of my boy! Simon returned with his tail wagging…a sign that he enjoyed his walk with Fail. Simon is looking forward to future walks with Gail!”
“Layla was so wonderful with my little Theo ! He always looks so happy to see her/ after his walk with her. Layla is so wonderful and professional; also keeps you updated on everything. I will definitely be re-booking with her in the near future!”
“I needed a dog-sitting service last minute, and Angela came through in a big way! She was super responsive and made sure my dog was well taken care of despite the short notice. I got updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease. My dog seemed happy and relaxed when I returned. Highly recommend for anyone in a pinch!”
“I can’t say how comfortable we were with Diana coming to our house to watch our 3rd child ?. She is trustworthy and sweet. Diana not only took our dog on long walks but gave her the TLC that she needed when her family went away! I will be forever grateful for Diana and I will definitely ask for her services again!”
“Bryndon is just an awesome person. You can tell how much care and love he has for animals. He was so great with Jax on his first walk, and Jax came back so happy. Bryndon is also communicative and on time, which I appreciate. I couldn't recommend anyone better.”
About: I have taken care of my dogs since 2020. They were already senior dogs when I’ve met them but still full of much energy!! I made sure food was always fresh, water clean, dogs bathed.

“Yeeun is an amazing dog walker and caring human being. My puppies adore her and warmed up to her since the first minute they met her. Yeeun always goes the extra mile for puppies, takes cares of them like they were hers, and keeps me updated at all times. I 100% recommend Yeeun and trust her with my fur babies.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a kid, so I’ve truly seen it all — from middle-of-the-night puppy potty breaks to caring for senior dogs who need that little extra love and attention. I’ve raised both male and female dogs (my family dog Daisy definitely has the sass!), and I’ve always been the go-to feeder, walker, and snuggler in my household. In college I also aided in training future guide dogs and vet dogs, so I understand the importance of training and care. I have also volunteered at pet rescues. Routine is important to me — your dog will be walked, fed, and cared for on a consistent schedule. With the free time I have outside of work, they’ll get plenty of cuddles, playtime, and love. Dogs bring me so much joy, and I want your pup to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I do work full-time, but if your dog is okay being alone during the day, they’ll get my full attention and affection before and after work. You can trust they’ll be in loving, reliable hands. Note: during the week drop-off/pick-up will have to be at 7am or after 5pm. My apartment has a strict pet policy, so all dogs living here are screened to ensure they’re non-aggressive and well-behaved. I have several great walking paths right outside for regular bathroom breaks and exercise. If your dog is crate trained (or in the process of learning), I can easily accommodate that and help reinforce crate training routines. Your pup will be safe, cared for, and given plenty of love, structure, and attention while staying with me!
About: “I have spent most of my life caring for pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and more. Having a family pet is a true joy and blessing, and I understand how important they are to you. Life can get busy, but you can rest assured that I will care for your furry (or feathered!) friend as if they were my own.” I’m currently working part time so my schedule is flexible to help with your furry friends. My schedule is open M-F 8am-3pm and 4pm-7pm. Also available for overnights on the weekends! I have a fenced yard and a 2 year old rescue mixed breed Shepherd . If they get along great. If not I can crate my dog when your pet is in the house.
About: Love love love animals. Over 20 years with pets of my own and pets of friends and family. Pet care is more than just a hobby, it's a passion for me.

About: Hello! I’m Denise. I am a pet parent and have trained and raised small dogs for 20 years. I am currently raising a small dog that I care and love for so I understand the quality of proper care when a pet’s family is away. I plan to have my dog at home with your dog if you’re ok with it. Both dogs will eat, walk and play together freely. I don’t cage unless told otherwise. I work full time Monday to Friday, 9 - 5. I plan to pet sit weekends: Friday 12pm into the evening and all day Saturday and Sunday. I live in an apartment so I will plan frequent walks around the block and play time at local dog parks. Whatever the owner is open to is how I will host pets. For an easy drop off please bring a kennel (if needed), food, medications, a bed, personal toys or comfort items, a harness, leash and food.

I never worry about Charlie or Maxie when Alex is around. Thank you so much for giving me "Peace of Mind" while I'm working. Alex is the Best Ever!!”

Denise G.
“Denise is a very caring, knowledgeable, responsible and loving pet parent so I’m sure she will be excellent with others’ pets as well and treat them as her own. She knows what pets need and want to be happy and healthy. No matter what she has going on she is always on top of her dog, Penelope’s schedule and needs. Not only is Penelope her bestie, she is also like a daughter to her. Penelope lives a life worthy of envy! If she isn’t chowing down on quality food, or on her throne as the Queen of Denise’s condo, she’s out for a lovely stroll with Denise or hanging out with her grand ‘pup’ parents.”

I contacted Alexandra with just 2 days notice to walk my senior yorkie. She obliged and did a great job. Cody has some special needs as a blind and deaf senior dog and Alexandra listened and asked good questions during our video meet up. She is very sweet and is an animal lover for sure. I would definitely hire her again.
can't recommend Monica enough! They are incredibly attentive and patient with my reactive dog, which is no small task. They follow all directions carefully and make sure my dog feels safe and supported every step of the way. It's such a relief to have someone I can trust who truly understands and respects my dog’s needs. Thank you!🐾
At my request, Gail arrived earlier than scheduled to pick up Simon. Simon was greeted with hugs and kisses! Unfortunately, Simon didn’t do well in the warmer temp and returned home panting heavily. Gail’s genuine concern for Simon was evident. She stuck around to make sure he was OK. Simon is OK!
Kinde did an excellent job with Wall-E. This being my first time using Rover, Kinde made the experience much better. He was super intentional about getting to know Wall-E and earning his trust. I know we can always count on Kinde and we look forward to many more walks. Thank you !
Sherrie was reliable and loving- an ideal combination! She went the extra mile (literally!) walking our dog Millie to make sure Millie was thoroughly exercised. She checked Millie's water bowls without us asking. Sherrie also communicated with us clearly, promptly, and warmly. We will definitely try and hire her again when Millie needs some extra attention. Thank you, Sherrie!!
Lia was great! She took wonderful care of my Golden Retriever, walking him, playing with him, and even making sure he had water. She followed all of the extra instructions I provided and I could tell my dog was happy and well-cared for. She’s very attentive and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog walker
Katie was amazing!! Everyone knows how hard/scary it is to trust someone new with your pup but truly, I instantly felt better after meeting Katie and seeing how she interacted with my dog. She clearly cares so much and my dog loved her instantly. She sent photos and updates and I can’t recommend her enough!!
