1. Jessica H.
About: Hi, my name is Jessica! I have experience with many breeds of dogs through my work in rescue and previous experience with walking and boarding dogs. I’ve worked with stronger breeds like shepherds, pitbulls/bully breeds, doberman, as well as herding breeds. I have a dog of my own that’s social with other dogs and assisted with teaching rambunctious puppies doggy manners as well as confidence building in shy dogs. My previous experience includes working with dogs with separation anxiety, leash reactivity, and dog selectivity/dog aggression. I live in a home with no breed restrictions. I can administer medication if the dog in my care requires it. I will continue training of the pets in my care according to what is practiced in the dogs home regularly.

“Travis was available super short notice, arrived on time, sent updates, and took Ry on a great walk. Ry was very happy and I would definitely hire him again!!”
3. Venora H.
“Venora is highly professional, responsible, and always on time. Comes across as a caring, empathetic person. She bonded with my dogs very quickly. It usually takes time for my younger dog, Cooper to feel comfortable with a new person, but he quickly came around to her friendly, smiling manner. She is definitely someone we would use as the need arises. I can unequivocally recommend her as an excellent dog walker.”
4. Alyssa R.
“Alyssa was on time and very communicative. my two pups were very happy when I got home. She walked for an hour and brought them back safely. I will definitely be using her services again.”
5. Alexa A.
“Alexa has watched my Shiba Inu, Brees, numerous times and I cannot imagine a better pet sitter than her. She treats my dog as if it were her own and gives him so much attention and love that I swear she is now his favorite human. Alexa is extremely meticulous when following care instructions and provides updates every few hours with many many pictures and videos so I can see how Brees is doing when I’m gone! It makes me so happy that my treasured pup is in the best hands possible when he’s with Alexa.”
6. Tuba SIDIKA B.
About: Proud family member of dogs since I was 5. Walking or running, big or small, I can take care of it all! Always a friend to pets in need. I’m currently working part time. I'm home during the day on weekdays and and when I'm working my boyfriend is usually home. There's almost always someone home to care for the pets and if alone they have places to hang out and use the restroom. Animal safety is always my top priority. I have an enclosed vehicle for transport and crates if necessary. I live in a shared house and could watch multiple dogs at a time or makes visits to take care of any pets at your home.
7. Helen C.
“Helen is a fabulous pet parent and caregiver! She has taken great care of my dogs and cats both at her home and at mine. She has been understanding and flexible with my work schedule, and she had a van suitable for pet transport when I needed a pickup. Her little pups are super cute and got along well with my little ones after a short introduction. Coordination is always easy. It’s clear Helen has a genuine love for all animals and I absolutely recommend her for your pets!”
8. Josaphine T.
“Jo helped take care of my dog for me during some busy weeks at work and did a great job. My dog can be a bit needy but Jo took her on long walks around the neighborhood to tire her out so she would settle down and be quiet while I worked. It was such a huge help. Will definitely be using and recommending in the future!”
9. Ash M.
“Ash has watched my French Bulldog on several occasions and she always gives him love, attention and care. Her passion for animals truly shines. She asks questions to understand my dog's needs and she provides updates so that I know how he's doing while I am away. If you trust Ash with your pet, I know she will provide a safe, loving environment for your pet and also the peace of mind for you to enjoy your time away.”

11. Ashlee S.
“WOW, Ashley - you took so many beautiful photos on your short walk around the neighborhood! I can tell she is so happy and ready for a midday nap. Thank you for being so good to my big baby girl! I am so thankful that we connected through Rover - I greatly appreciate your care with Riley Lou today!”
12. Lena N.
“Great communication and photos! Thank you”
13. Juan S.
“Juan was punctual both for the meet & greet and the walks, had great communication and my dog got the exercise she needed. My pit is a well behaved 65# bundle of muscle so I was looking for someone who had experience with larger dogs. Juan was had experience with Pit mixes so I felt comfortable sending Jelly with him. I used Juan as a fill-in since my regular walker was out of town but would absolutely use him again.”
14. Monica S.
“Monica shows diligence and compassion for all animals under her care. She understands each animal has a different personality, and knows the importance of the details in the care and accuracy of accommodating any special needs. My dog would run to her as soon as he saw her.”
15. Kaitlyn S.
About: Hi! I have worked with dogs for about 4 months now, working at a dog daycare/hiking club. Along with having had 3 of my own, I have experience with many dog breeds, and ages, and have learned ways to handle any situations that may occur. I love getting to know every animals personality and what works best for them to keep them as happy and healthy as posssible!💗 I take classes in the evenings, so all day i have time to spend time with your fur babies. From 8-3:00 Mondays-Thursdays i’m completely available, with of course flexibility if desperately needed. I do not board in my own home, however i’m glad to make your fur babies feel comfortable and safe in yours . I always make sure they are getting enough potty breaks, have clean water and are fed properly according to what i am informed they need.

17. Sandra P.
About: I have a big house with many comfortable spots to choose from. There is plenty of yard for your curiosity and a warm deck to soak up some sunshine. The house is pet friendly and clean. You have my undivided attention and I can take you with me most of the time. I love your company and miss you when you go home. Discount for multi-dog families and extended stays. I work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. There is someone home almost all of the time, the exception being a couple of hours in the early afternoon. I have a huge picture window facing a mountainside that sports many animals that entertain us. I have a high fence and secure gate. Not many visitors or much foot traffic. Quiet and safe.
18. Molly B.
About: Hello all! I started pet sitting with my older siblings around 8 years old, but have 10 years of professional experience (I'm 28) with dog walking & sitting as well. I have taken care of all types of animals ranging from snakes, birds, cats, dogs, even a chinchilla, and more! I love them all and will make sure they are well taken care of. I have experience in bathing, giving medicine, light training, feeding, walking, and general care for most animals. I’m very passionate about taking care of all animals no matter the breeds/species. I also have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior animals. I have been trained in different leashes and their benefits and in many different animal situations (breaking up a dog fight, anxiety, etc.) I hope to see your adorable pets soon! I make my own schedule fortunately! I'm very flexible and am ultimately available whenever you need me. I can make it work and am more than happy to. I work from home in cybersecurity :) In other homes, I make sure I fully understand the layout and guidelines to the pets and the home. If there are any questions or clarifications, I make sure I have them answered before you need me to take over.
19. Valerie L.
“Valerie is so awesome, I would highly recommend her as a dog walker!! A couple weeks ago was my first time using the Rover app and I was admittedly nervous about letting another person that I just found on an app to come and take my pups for a walk. Needless to say, Valerie quelled any fears I had. I reached out to her about my two nine month old golden doodles who have been needing a lot more activity lately, and unfortunately right now I am unable to provide that. Valerie courteously responded immediately to my short notice text and told me she’d be at my house shortly. When she arrrived she warmly introduced herself, asked a couple questions about the pups and told me where she would be taking them. She even sent me a pic of how exhausted the pups were during the middle of their walk, which made me feel a lot better about the whole experience. I was surprised when she returned and told me they weren’t a problem to walk because they can really be a handful...but it worked out with Valerie so I am going to be a repeat customer for sure!! Highly recommended!!”
