Dog Walking Mead

“Did an incredible job making sure Theo was behaving and heeling on the walk.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats, including my own, for as long as I can remember. I have trained my pets as well as other's in basic obedience. I like to study dog psychology and I have a bachelor's degree in psychology. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from tiny-huge and fearful-calm temperaments. My favorite breeds to care for are large breeds, most specifically breeds like pitties, mastiffs, and dobermans, but I love all dog breeds too and love how every dog has their own unique personality. I've also cared for cats doing volunteer work and have 2 of my own. I'm currently available anytime of the week all year besides the few times per year that I travel. I am working to potentially have a career with dogs. For care in the client's home, I will do whatever is instructed to me to be done for the pet. I am good at reading dog body language and understanding their needs. I've cared for fearful/avoidant dogs and hyper/clingy dogs alike. I am not able to provide care in my own home since I live with family and own 2 rescue cats.

“Ella was great! She was able to come in last minute and do exactly what I requested. She’s very communicative and helpful. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Abigail communicated with me when she went to take my dog Venus out for her walks and that and the pictures were very helpful since I’m out of town. I would recommend her and use her again.”

“Audrey did a great job with Tommy, even after he decided not to eat during her first day with him. (It’s not unusual behavior on his part.) She did a great job in keeping us informed and working through food options, one of which eventually worked. She was calm under pressure.”

About: I’ve had dogs around me my whole life; from active labs to precocious cocker spaniels to mutts with needs, I’m happy to provide the care your pets need while you’re away. I’m flexible with all play styles and feeding habits, all while staying firm against begging for food we can’t have and keeping a close eye on problem behaviors such as digging or pillow ripping. I love all kinds of dogs, from hyperactive to couch potatoes, malamutes to chihuahuas, puppies to senior dogs. I’ll be sure to keep your fluffy friends entertained and well kept while you’re away! As for walking, I always strive to make sure your four legged friend has their share of exercise and fresh air. My time is currently open to weekdays from 6 am to 11 pm. I’m happy to check on your pets multiple times a day to keep up with their schedules, and am happy to follow plans as needed. I do my best to follow any instructions provided for your pet. I’m happy to play, take pets outside into yards or for walks in the neighborhood to get their energy out, feed them on their schedules, and visit multiple times a day to keep your pet happy and entertained. I have a preference for crate trained dogs, but for those more well-behaved, I have no qualms. As for cats, I’m happy to keep quiet and leave them to their own pace, letting myself be available to them while not invading their space.

“My dog, Ollie, loves Aliyah so much! Aliyah is not only reliable and trustworthy, but also genuinely cares about Ollie and his needs. I really appreciate how she sends mephotos, and clearly enjoys her time with our boy.I feel very confident and relaxed knowing Ollie is in Aliyah's hands. Highly recommend!”

About: Hello! My name is Ashley and I have been around animals, large and small, my whole life. I have three of my own small dogs that are my whole heart. I know what it feels like to have to trust another person that you’ve never met with your pets. I’ve used Rover for my own pet sitting needs and want to provide that same peace of mind to other pet owners. I look forward to chatting with you! I am currently on Summer break. Depending on your needs we can work together to see what works best for both of us and go from there! I know most pets are comfortable in the safety of their own home and I’d love to provide support and care in that environment. Let’s chat about your needs!

“Melisa was kind and professional! My dog is often timid and had refused to go out for a walk when I am gone before but Melissa handled it like a champ, was patient and kind, and was able to coax him out of the house. Thank you Melissa!”

About: I am a big animal lover and can help with many things needed to give your animal the best care! have had many pets throughout the years; Cats, dogs, rabbits and chickens. I have also helped watching others pets. I have been a stay at home mom and with my kid going back to school I will have plenty of time available throughout the week. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a big yard in a great neighborhood. I have chickens as well as an indoor cat that is 9 years old.

About: I've had a cared for my own dog since I was 11 and cats since I was able to walk. I've always helped out with my grandparents dogs before having my own as well. Im currently working park time. So I have plenty of time to be with your pets! Just need time to check on my own kitty every once in a while. I live in an apartment, probably not the best for me to take in your pets. Better in your own home. Possible to work something out.

“Sarah and Blake are great. My 2 huskies loved them. They came on time and they were very nice.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats as a sitter position since I was in middle school for my family. Scheduled feeding, bathroom breaks, medicine, and walks is nothing new for me! Bathing and basic grooming comes with the territory too, if you’d like. Having family and friends that work in animal care has given me the opportunity to have experience with all ages of pets as well as health knowledge. I’m patient with animals of various behavioral needs as well, and have even cared for fish and exotic pets. I’ve personally owned and care for dogs and cats have been a sitter on Rover since 2022. I work M-F and have weekends off, getting off in the early afternoon, and will absolutely make time for your pet for their needs throughout the day to the best of my abilities! I’m available for sitting at owners’ homes, taking pets for walks, check-ins, etc. as needed, and I have my own reliable transportation to get it all done. I am very considerate of you and your pet’s comfort. I respect all owners’ property and value their trust, and strive to make you feel comfortable, secure, and respected. I will always leave your home as I found it or better after my time there. With safety in consideration, there are multiple parks near my own home to take dogs (or cats, if they like that!) to; I’m comfortable having pets in my car or we can walk if it’s close! I am incredibly flexible to all your needs, so we will stay home if you wish as well. I want the most stress-free and fun experience for pets and owners alike.

About: Hi, I’m Tanner! As a veterinary technician, I bring professional medical knowledge and hands-on animal care experience to every pet I care for. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors, puppies, kittens, and pets with medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for signs of illness or injury, and providing compassionate, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. My veterinary background allows me to recognize potential health concerns early while ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can feel confident knowing they’re in experienced hands. I treat every pet like my own and provide regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I offer flexible availability, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and can accommodate medication schedules and special care needs when needed. I understand that many pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort of their own home and maintain their normal routine. When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize consistency, safety, and respect for both your pet and your space.

About: I’ve been around dogs for years and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I always strive to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a Golden Retriever and a German Shepherd mix, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and high-energy dogs. I’ve also administered medications to my own dogs when needed and always follow care instructions carefully. Beyond caring for my own pets, I’ve looked after many friends’ and family members’ dogs while they were away. I also rescued one of my own dogs, which gave me experience helping an adult dog adjust to a new home, build confidence, and replace unwanted habits with positive behaviors through patience and consistent training. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your dog prefers a relaxing walk or an active adventure, I’ll tailor their care to their individual needs while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m available most days for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. If I’m providing house sitting, I just ask for about two hours each day to care for and exercise my own dogs while my husband is at work. Outside of that, I’m committed to following your pet’s normal routine and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and any special instructions so they receive the care they’re used to. Whether we’re out on a walk or spending time at home, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that lightly. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or house sitting, I’ll provide attentive, compassionate care while doing my best to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I’d also be happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
