About: I have owned and cared for cats my entire life, and have extensive experience dog-sitting for friends and family. My goal is to provide stress-free care for your pet. I pride myself in my ability to anticipate a pet’s needs, and give them the space, respect, and attention that they require. I am a full-time graduate student, so I have the summer free to care for your pet, any day and any time! I am free weekdays and weekends, and I am willing and able to provide care any time of day. When providing pet care in your home, I will be careful to follow all instructions meticulously. I understand that not all pets will require extensive attention, especially in their own space where they have an established routine and practices. I will try to disrupt these routines as little as possible, so that your pet has very little disruption to their every-day expectations.
About: As an independent contractor, I make my own schedule. This allows me to operate on a very flexible calendar. In addition to being the go-to care taker for the pets in my circle, I also have a lifestyle that allows for me to go the extra mile and hangout longer, play more, and go for longer walks! I currently make my own schedule. So pet care fits in tremendously. I work as a freelance film and commercial laborer. Being in charge of my calendar allows me to schedule accordingly to take care of your pet! Having two cats of my own, while I can't house animals at my own residence, I am very familiar with the needs of pets. Playtime, treats, head scratches, and the like. I love every animal deeply and with a great respect. I treat every space with the utmost dignity and try to keep as small of a footprint as possible when entering someone's home. I have been house sitting, dog/cat watching for many years now. I look forward to ensuring you have an enjoyable, trustworthy experience when working with me.
About: If i can take care of my husky, then i definitely can take care of any other dog pretty much. I got my first pet when 6(german sheperd), i got another dog when 11 and now am 20 and i got a siberian husky(wife's gift). I lost my other two before moving to US. It was tough since i was very young at the time, basically i have been a dog lover since forever. I will take care of your dog as if it was my little Nova, i feed nova 3 times a day since she is a big dog, take her to potty every two hours or when she lets me know that she has to go (trained her to not do her business inside the house) and i brush her fur daily. I also have a cat her name is Blue, she and Nova are my only babies at the moment.
About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life anywhere from a German Shepard to a Dachshund. I understand the importance of trusting and depending on those who care for your loved ones (because dogs are a part of the family too). I love long walks around the neighborhood and ensuring each dog is cared for specifically tailored to their needs and owners preference. Would love a dog of my own however living vicariously through my clients and supporting them in their care of their animals is the next best thing! Flexible on the weekends and mornings/evenings during the week. Caring for animals is just as much a stress reliever for me as it is for them and their owners. Can’t wait to help! I am flexible in availability and capacity for the client needs. I can be adaptive contingent on environment, medical and ability considerations of the animal(s).

Near East dog parents share their Rover experiences
Allison and Andrew are absolutely fantastic dog walkers!! They were always on time and happy and ready to walk our excited and energetic mini Bernedoodle Reggie. Reggie loved his walks with them and would stand by the door patiently and a little anxiously every am and pm waiting for his walk with Allison and Andrew ! We were very pleased and will definitely use them again !!!

I am so thankful to have found Aaron! Right off the bat he is extremely kind, flexible, and professional when it comes to figuring out you and your pets needs. He emphasizes keeping your pet in their routine as much as possible which is much appreciated. My very shy dog warmed up to him quickly as he spent time with her to make her feel comfortable! I loved receiving pictures and videos of my dog during his visit, which made me feel relieved that my dog was getting treated with above and beyond care. Your pet will be in wonderful hands with Aaron. Will be booking him regularly! Thank you so much Aaron we are so happy to have found you!
