Kelly is sweet, caring and responsible. She was able to fit us into her schedule despite having prior arrangements. She sent me lots of pictures and a detailed update after walking my dog. Both my dog and I loved meeting her and will definitely book again.

From the moment we met her, I knew Kristen would be a perfect fit to walk our sweet fur-baby, Hamilton. Given that Hamilton is still a four-month old puppy, my husband & I weren’t willing to leave him in the care of just anyone. Right from the get-go, Kristen was sweet, playful, & affectionate with our sweet boy. Kristen was always immediately responsive to my many questions as a first-time Rover user & left detailed notes/pictures about her walks with Hamilton. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone & everyone! Your dog will love her!!! ~Cynthia & Jay

Madison has been walking Jake, our very active, 60lb collie/heeler mix, for a few weeks now and we are delighted we found her on Rover. She is very dependable and obviously experienced with energetic dogs. Jake loves her, he watches out the window at walk time and charges to the door as soon as he sees Madison coming! We would definitely recommend Madison.

About: Hello pet parents! My name is Val. I have been working with pets since I was 16 years old. I started in a dog/cat boarding facility and now I’m a part time Vet Tech at a pet hospital . I have lots of experience with feeding schedules, long and safe walks, bathing, trimming nails, and giving lots and lots of love. I’m also CPR certified to be prepared if the unexpected happens. I will take care of your furry friends as if they were my own 🫶🏻 I’m currently working part-time in a pet hospital. Usually I’m there 2-3 days a week, which usually change every week. I have plenty of days off where I can take care of your babies. I’m pretty sure I can accommodate myself to your schedule to make everything easier for your pets. I will give lots of pets to your pawsome babies. I can also bathe them if wanted. And I will give them lots and lots of love.

This review is long overdue but Leah is an absolute sweetheart! She takes excellent care of my dog and often spends more time with him than scheduled. She always sends pictures, gives detailed updates, and even sends photos of her distance covered / walking path. When she says she has a blast with my dog, she means it! Leah is one of those people that loves your pets as if they were her own.

About: For the past 7 years I have taken care of dogs, including my own husky. I have experience with walking, dog sitting, and feeding, so I feel more than comfortable getting to know your pet and caring for him/her. Currently, I am a fourth year medical student. I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to incorporate time as needed to care for your pet. Caring for a pet involves implementing ample time for playing, relaxing, feeding, and walking. While dog sitting I will always make sure to give my undivided attention and do whatever keeps your pet content and safe.

About: As a speech therapist for 10 months out of the year, I primarily work with children and enjoy spending summers outdoors with my own dog, Cooper. I have 10 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking, through Rover as well as for friends and neighbors. I am comfortable maintaining your dog’s training and walking routines to ensure safe, fun walks together! (Cooper will stay at home, he is a whole lot of 100 lbs and receives his own walks. He does not resource guard and has never been a bite risk). I’m looking to dog walk and/or dog sit in the summer, when I am off from my public school job. This would be during the months of July and August, but depending on the hour I can be available before July (after 4:30 pm). During the summer I have a very flexible schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a split level home. I can keep our dogs separate or introduce them depending on your preference and whether they can acclimate (Cooper is a big boy but docile and friendly).

About: Fourteen years of taking care of small to large dogs. I own a 100lb Australian Shepherd lab mix. I can walk, run, visit with them and will ensure their happiness and safety is number one priority. If they have specific dieting or exercise needs, please let me know. I’m available 7 days a week and do this as my full time job so will like repeat visits. I’ve been very helpful in walking much larger dogs too and can lift them if needed. If your pet has a handicap I’m very careful to their needs and can work with them however you need. I have a cart too that I bring on walks for dogs that are recovering or have an injury so they can still enjoy the outdoors or move around.

Paola was an absolute lifesaver and helped me out in a pinch. From the very beginning, her communication was top-notch — clear, timely, and reassuring. She kept me updated and made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. Most importantly, she made me feel completely comfortable leaving Benjamin and Kensington in her care. It was clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and that peace of mind is priceless. I’m really grateful I found her on Rover and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Paola to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional sitter.
