About: I am an animal behaviorist and a CPDT certified dog trainer! I am very familiar with all different temperaments as well as sizes/breeds of cats & dogs. In addition, I grew up on a farm so I have plenty of experience with farm animals as well! Wednesday-Saturday I work 10 hour shifts but am available before and after work for drop ins. Sunday-Tuesday I am available all day for drop ins or walks. I will definitely try to stick to their routine as much as possible! I’m all about minimizing stress/anxiety as much as I can. Every animal has different needs and I will do my best to meet them all while keeping everyone safe.
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: My wife and I have cared for dogs together for 6 years, and I have been handling animal care practically from birth growing up on a farm. Experienced with anxious dogs of any size, medication, and playtime/exercise. Whatever needs your pet has I can accommodate. I work a hybrid schedule so I can be flexible based on your needs. Willing to adjust to your needed hours of care for your pet. On my visit to care for your dog I will feed, refresh water, give medication, and walk/play. For special needs or overly anxious dogs I can adjust approach.
About: I have always lived in a home with pets. Growing up with animals taught me to read their cues and thoughtfully curate our interactions to prioritize their happiness and safety. From the responsibility of walking a dog to the subtle art of caring for a cat, I have both experience with and appreciation for all aspects of being a pet parent. I am currently in the midst of the graduate school application process and have ample weekday availability to help when needed. I am happy to walk, entertain, or simply keep dogs or cats company throughout the day. I am currently in the graduate school application process, which gives me a flexible schedule and availability throughout the day to care for your pet. I’m able to plan my time around their needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feedings, or companionship. I am comfortable replicating your established routine with your pet to the best of my ability. Having hired help for my own two cats when needed, I understand the desire to limit the variability your pet experiences during these interactions. With your guidance, I hope to create the best possible experience for your pet!

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!
Karly is THE BEST!!!!! She walks my pup, Fuzzy, every day and takes such good care of her. She has gone above and beyond to help me- Fuz is reactive and takes a good bit to warm up to people, and Karly went out of her way to get to know Fuz, and is amazing at communicating/ returning messages/ reaching out with any questions or concerns. Fuz and I highly HIGHLY recommend!!!
Hannah was absolutely fabulous with my puppy Claire! It was my first time leaving my four month old puppy and I was very nervous but Hannah was incredibly kind and responsible and took such good care of Claire. Claire was happy and comfortable with Hannah, and super tired and satisfied after every walk. 100% would recommend Hannah!
