About Polina S.

Safety, trust & environment
I always follow your dog’s routine closely, including feeding, walk style, cues, and any specific instructions. On walks, I use secure equipment, stay aware of surroundings, and keep a safe distance from unfamiliar dogs when needed. Your dog’s safety always comes first.

Information Polina S. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know your dog’s routine, their favorite activities, and any special instructions. Please also tell me how they behave around other dogs and people, and whether they’re allowed to greet others on walks. This helps me make every outing safe and comfortable.
A typical day
Every dog is different, so I tailor each visit to their needs. Walks include plenty of sniffing, exploring, and movement at their pace. At home, I like to include enrichment like lick mats, puzzle toys, and calm downtime so dogs feel both mentally and physically satisfied.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Polly. I’m an experienced dog walker who genuinely enjoys getting to know each dog’s personality. I focus on calm, structured, and safe walks. I pay close attention to body language, pacing, and surroundings so your dog feels comfortable and understood. I’m especially mindful with dogs who may be nervous or need a bit more attention. You’ll always get updates and photos so you know how your dog is doing.

Polly has been a life saver for us! She's been so helpful when our schedules don't allow us the flexibility to be home with our puppy Darla. Whether it's taking her for walks, or doggy day care to hang out with her wonderful doggo Chester, Polly has been all we could ask for. 100% recommend!


Polina was excellent with Monkey and Luna. It was the first time being dog sat in someone else’s home. My youngest was very stressed the first day. Polina was honest and shared real feedback. They both settled in quickly and enjoyed their trips to the dog park with Polina, walks, quiet and family time. I received daily feedback and photos which really helped ease my mind knowing they were being well taken of. Polina’s dog is super sweet and social, my dogs enjoyed playing with him. I would very highly recommend Polina and will certainly rebook with her on my next trip.
Thanks again for wonderful care ❤️
It was a pleasure having Polina look after our fur babies Daisy and Mocha. It was our first time leaving them to a dog sitter for the entire night. They are both timid dogs especially Daisy. She doesn't warm up to anyone except for her own family. I have to admit, I was hesitant to leave them alone, but we had to attend a family wedding. The moment Polina came in the door, Daisy started kissing her, it really touched my heart. I knew my babies will be in good hands. Polina made it easier for us to enjoy the night out. We also appreciate that she came earlier. We will definitely use her her service again. This is our first time using Rover. It was referred to us from a close friend. It's a good start for us. We interviewed few people and they were all very nice. I went with my gut feeling and we saw how Daisy & Mocha interacted with Polina. Especially Daisy because she's much older than Mocha and she's the most timid one. We knew she will be the right candidate. I highly recommend Polina as a dog sitter. She's a very caring person and easy to talk too. She understood my feelings. She gave us updates and pictures of my babies. As a dog owner, the most important thing is trust and loyalty. We feel Polina gave us those qualities that we can be at ease of leaving the most important thing in our life.
