Availability

From May - late August I will be working at farmers markets and will be available for house sitting before and after my shift, which usually lasts 6-8 hours. I work 7am-1pm Saturdays and Tuesdays, and I work 1pm-8pm Thursdays. I will be available 40 min before or after my shift to take your puppy on a walk! This gives me enough time to get where they are :) All other days I have remote work I do from home offering me flexibility for walks etc. If you are unsure about timing but are interested in booking, please message me and I will let you ASAP if I can do a walk! Open and interested to new pups to walk and watch. I am especially looking for regular walks and 1-walks and will work with you proactively to create a schedule that works for you and your pet! I regularly update my schedule and I am open and flexible for doing walks in the daytime, check-ins, or house sitting!

My dog loves Zoe! She is always on top of things and very conscientious - she lets me know if she ever notices something noteworthy, like if my dog Charlie is ever eating grass or has an unusual poop on their walks. This helps me feel more comfortable that he is in great hands!

Zoe watched our sweet pup and her cousin for an evening. She was on time (early), friendly, and sweet.

Zoe is personable, friendly, enthusiastic and dependable. My bernedoodle Zulu instantly made friends and enjoys walks with her. I definitely will be a repeat client if Zoe will have us!

Zoe is an excellent pet sitter. Very responsible and great communication. She sent me pictures and kept me updated, and totally understood the separation anxiety I had from my cats!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
