Pet care experience
Your Calm, Kind, Rescue-Exp. Walker
Hi, I’m Dominika — a professional dog walker, shelter volunteer, and lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all kinds. **Availability (Please Read)** I offer ad-hoc dog walking only. I’m not able to take on regular, ongoing schedules, but I’m happy to be your calm, reliable go-to whenever I’m available — whether that’s last-minute help, occasional coverage, or a change in your usual routine. Just check my calendar to see when I’m free. **Experience with Rescue & Sensitive Dogs** For over two years, I volunteered at an animal shelter, working closely with rescue dogs, including those with anxiety, trauma, and behavioral challenges. I’ve also spent three years providing one-on-one care for dogs who need extra patience, structure, and understanding. From shy pups to energetic walkers to senior dogs with special needs, I tailor each walk to the dog in front of me. **A Pet Parent’s Perspective** I’ve been a proud pet parent to both a dog and a cat for many years, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else — especially on short notice. When your dog is with me, they’re treated like family: safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. **When I’m a Good Fit** If you’re looking for a calm, kind, and experienced walker when you need one, I’d love to help if my availability aligns. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and emotional well-being. I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, medication, walks, or favorite toys—and always respect your home and privacy. With experience working with anxious and special-needs dogs, I use gentle, positive-reinforcement techniques to build trust and ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Dominika is everything I could have hoped for. She is an excellent communicator; responsive, direct, and reliable. She is kind, has a sense of humor, and a calm caring approach to the dogs. I am so grateful, thank you!
Dominik was fantastic with instructions and came to my aid in a pinch. Our puppy seemed very relaxed and confident with her. She was prompt, in time and communicative which is super important and followed all directions. I will for sure be requesting more walks with her in future.
Dominika is awesome! My girl can be fearful and somewhat reactive, so she usually fails the meet and greet, but Dominika was very thoughtful and came up with strategies to make her feel safe and warm up. So grateful for her experience and willingness to take on a challenge on short notice.
Dominika was wonderful and very professional! Kobe is a bit shy and anxious with strangers but she made him feel at ease with her. She kept us updated on the walk and followed our instructions exactly! I am def booking her again!
Dominika was great! She was great interacting with our cats and was really on top of the details and communication.
Dominika was great! She spent so much time loving on and playing with Dixie. She sent pictures and had excellent communication. We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience! Thanks again!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
Pet care fits into my routine on an ad-hoc basis. I don’t take recurring bookings, but I open availability only when I know I can fully commit. When I accept a walk, I plan my day around it so your dog gets calm, focused, reliable care.

- To provide the best care, it’s important for me to know your pet’s routine, temperament, and any special needs or triggers—such as fears, medical conditions, or behavioral quirks. Please share their favorite activities, how they like to be approached, and any commands or cues they respond to. The more I understand about their personality and needs, the better I can ensure a safe, happy, and stress-free experience for your furry friend.
