“Kaylah is awesome!! She is so kind to my dog, and he was instantly comfortable around her! She is timely, keeps you informed, professional, and all around reliable! Both me and my dog think she’s the best!”
“Justin is great! Teddy looks forward to seeing home every day!!!”
“Sarah is amazing with our dog!! I can tell how happy she is from the pictures I receive on their walks! Sarah really goes above and beyond to make sure our dog has a great experience each visit!”
“Jamie is the BEST! We have a super nervous, occasionally reactive dog, and within two thirty minute walks, she’s my dog’s new best friend. She’s great at recognizing body language of dogs, and is always sure to take pictures of my baby on walks and send them over. She also checked to see what tricks Goose knew, and refreshes them with him on every walk. We’re so glad to have her as part of his weekly routine :)”
“Reliable, attentive, and Shaggy-approved! My go-to dog walker ensures my furry friend gets the exercise and care he needs. Couldn't ask for better service!”
“Jennah was super flexible with my very last minute booking. She did everything I requested and more!”
“Anne was very responsive, took Max on a nice walk to keep him busy and sent plenty of photos for the trip. She is a very responsive and responsible dog handler :)”
“We've been fortunate to have Jamie walking our pup for close to a year and we couldn't ask for a better walker. When Jamie arrives, our dog loses his mind with excitement. He comes back with his tail wagging and completely puppered out. We're moving this week to a new city, and the thought of not having Jamie here every day with our dog makes us terribly sad. The folks who get to take our place in Jamie's walking rotation are lucky indeed!”
“She was very communicative and responsive! Took great care of my dog and was very sweet with him. I would use her again!”
“Valeria was super flexible with my schedule. She even helped me out with some funky requests. Thor was so happy and tired after his walks! I can’t say enough for how great she was! 10/10 recommend”
“Isaiah is an amazing dog walker!! He is very friendly and super reliable! I never had to worry about my dog not being well taken care of. I can’t say I’ve felt the same with other dog walkers we have used. Goose also loves him and enjoys their walks! I would highly recommend him!”
“Adriana has been excellent! very responsive and communicative - it's been a joy to work with her and I trust her with my boy completely (an 80 lbs. 8 year old dog who loves all his smells and peeing on everything!).”
“Our pup was happy to see Margaret! It had been a few months but our situation changed and we needed help on short notice and Margaret was happy to comply! She hits all his favorite spots and friends on their walks!”
About: I’ve grown up with family dogs my entire life and have loved taking care of my own dogs since I was 11! I’ve trained two puppies myself and also have experience with senior care and administering medication as my previous dog had diabetes before she passed. I am a teacher with summers off so I’ll have plenty of time for all the pets! I’ll be available most days for July and August! I can do whatever is needed for your pets in your home! I can even bring my own puppy if your pets like play dates in the yard or company on their walks!
About: Since I was born I was surrounded by dogs. I moved to the US and my dogs stayed home so I have a lot of attention to give Half of the week I work from home so I can be with the dog. We’ll have lots of play time. The dog will not miss you. Just kidding! But I will me give my heart out. I know how it is to trust someone else with your fur baby, so I’ll do everything I can to make everyone feel safe. I live in an apartment. We’ll go for walks in downtown or a park. Every recommendation taken (food, medicine , toys , etc) just let me know
About: I have two cats myself, and have been the de facto dog sitter of my family for years. I've been watching dogs of all sizes for years, and am confident in my ability to keep up with whatever activity level they need. I'm currently in between jobs, and my work is generally remote anyway, so my schedule is always pretty flexible. Happy to work with your (and your pet's) schedule! I'll treat your home like my own and your pets like my own family. As someone who misses my pets the second they leave my sight, I'm big on sending photo and video updates whenever I can.
“Amber is simply the best, I cannot say enough how great she has been and how patient she is with our girl. She’s always on time and goes above and beyond for us. I recommend her to anyone who wants the best for their fur baby!”
About: I’m new to Rover but not to dogs! I have worked in a veterinary kennel, a daycare/boarding center, completed a PennVet summer program, and volunteered at the SPCA for years. Let me walk your doggies! I love them all. I am free daily until late August, barring my 5-8 pm tutoring shifts, a few weekly appointments, and random engagements. I have lots of energy in the morning so I can do early morning walks if needed. I am very respectful and caring towards others’ animals, spaces and belongings, and would love the opportunity to take care of your pet in your home so that both of you have the least anxiety possible.
“Autumn is so lovely with our pup!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child, with my personal pet care experience being centered on cats. Growing up in an apartment, I was always around cats and have been raising my own for the last 7 years. I am a total cat lady! Along with caring for my own cats, I have cat-sit for many friends, colleagues, and family members. Additionally, I have always loved being around friend and family members' dogs and have dog sit several times, including walking and overnight care. I am patient, respectful of animal's boundaries, and reliable for providing clear and consistent communication. As a grad student, I am also dependable for responsible and respectful service. I know that trusting someone with your pets is a big responsibility, and I will do everything I can to give your furry family members as pleasant and relaxing an experience as possible while you're away! As a PhD student, my summers are very flexible as I am mostly working on independent research projects and preparing to teach in the fall. I have a car and am able to travel for the visits. Outside of short travel dates, I am usually available throughout the day and can complete multiple visits in a day if needed. When meeting new animals, I always allow the animal to dictate how much they want me to interact with them. I believe that animals are excellent communicators as long as we know how to listen to them. I try to establish trust between myself and the animal by avoiding direct eye contact, not hovering over them, and moving as quietly and slowly as possible until it is clear the animal feels comfortable. Along with the basics of feeding and cleaning up, I always make sure to provide the animals with some play time and comfort. I am happy to talk about your animal's specific needs and how I can best care for them.
