Your dog will get the walk it wants

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Bill and I have been dog walking with Rover for over 3 years now. Before starting with Rover I volunteered with Austin TX animal shelters for a few years so I am used to being around, and taking care of, all kinds of dogs. I've been trained to help give scared dogs the right care, to handle dogs who might not be fans of other dogs, and to keep strong dogs safe. I understand every dog is different and each dog should be given the perfect care to make him or her feel comfortable and special. I look forward to giving your dog a nice walk or play session to break up their day. I also really enjoy checking in on your cats as needed. I recently moved to Salem so I have wide open availability. Thank you!

Bill came into our lives for a season, and changed it for the good. If he decides to walk in Portland, you folks need to grab him up and keep him forever…….we will miss you Bill!

Bill is an amazing dog walker! He walked my dog, Ranger, 5x a week for the past 1.5 years. He sent updates daily and cared for my dog like he was his own. Ranger struggles with aggression and anxiety on walks and Bill was able to handle him with care in any situation. We are so sad that Bill is moving away to another city. We would have kept him as Ranger’s dog walker forever if we could! He will be impossible to replace and his new clients are extremely lucky to have such a caring person look after their pets.

William is the best! He drops in on our 2 Cats when we are away and always takes the best care of them. He goes out of his way to play with our cats and make them feel like we are home with them! I highly recommend William! Thanks William!

The most important part of my job is keeping your pet safe. That is my main focus, everything else that happens is secondary to that.

Information William R. would like to know about your pet

The more I know about your dog the better the experience he or she will have on the walk. His or her likes, dislikes, etc for example.

A typical day

How I spend the time with your dog is up to your dog. I've had dogs who walk me around the same neighborhood route everyday because they liked the familiarity. And I've had others who like to explore different places.
