“Nyree was amazing, and I’d highly recommend her! She came every morning for a week to let my fur baby out of her kennel, give her breakfast, and take her for a quick morning walk. Leia absolutely looked forward to her mornings with Nyree, and I’m so grateful for the kind, thoughtful care she provided.”


“Laura is an excellent dog walker! She took a preliminary walk with us to learn my dog’s habits and routines, and was great at communicating upcoming schedules. My dog was so happy to see her and walk with her each day and I got great updates. I would highly recommend Laura for dog walking or dog sitting.”


“We are trying Xan out as our regular walker, twice a week. So far Xan clearly has a heart for dogs and brought Doris back happy! Looking forward to continue working with them.”


“Addison has been a lifesaver when it comes to finding a reliable walker for our pet. She is caring and responsible and Percy always looks forward to his walks with her. Highly recommended!”


“Alana went above and beyond to take care of my dog RITA! Her communication was awesome and she updated me all day! She even reached out after her stay, just to check in! I feel like I have found thee BEST dog sitter in the cities!”


“Punctual, kind, down to earth and Arnie loves going on walks with CJ. When their walk is over Arnie does not want her to leave. Super glad to have found CJ!”


“I'm so glad that my pup, Cash, and I have Autumn. I was gone for a long time, and it meant a lot that Cash got extra mental stimulation on his walk because of Autumn's extra efforts to do a little training on the walk. She was also above and beyond helpful in tending to some of my particular requests and the logistics of the walk.”


About: I’ve watched family and friends dogs for years. I enjoy being the “go-to” person to watch their pets . Love caring for and playing with dogs, talking them on walks, and playing! I have some flexibility in my schedule during the weekdays . However, I can always do afternoons walks and care and availability full time on weekends. For longer I usually watch folks dogs in their home - if that’s the preference. If your puppy needs to be just walked and fed for just the day that’s also grand!

About: I have both adopted and fostered young and senior dogs. The youngest dog I have fostered was 1 year old (Golden Retriever - 45 lbs) named Benny. The oldest dog I have cared for was my resident dog, Bubba (Black Lab/Husky Mix - 80 lbs) who I had for 4 years who recently passed away at 11. Dogs are my pride and joy! I work full time on the weekdays and am free on the weekends. I am available during the week sometimes after work. Willing to stay the weekend if needed. I treat dogs like I would my own. On walks I make sure I have everything we need before going out. I respect each pet and go with what they want to do. IE adhering to their boundaries. I am also great at following directions that the owner provides. I want all parties, pets, parents, and myself to feel comfortable.

About: I am reliable to help care for your pet. I have done pet sitting and walking for clients for 5 years. I personally have a miniature poodle and a pug ♥️ I am able to take care of your pet any day of the week. I just need to know at least 3 days ahead of time before you need me. I provide care for pets in clients homes as well as take dogs on walks. I am able to check on your pet while you are at work. I can also stay at your home if needed on weekends.

About: Hi loving pet parents! My name is Brooke. I may be new to Rover, but I’m no stranger to pet care and I’m ready to become besties with your pup! I have cared for pets since I was 12-years-old, and I love all dogs, no matter the size, shape, or personality. I've grown up and cared for several breeds - from boxers, to cockapoos, to labs, to frenchies - and I am comfortable taking an energetic pup on a run, or I can be a couch-potato with a dog that loves to cuddle. It's my utmost goal to make your dog feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while you're away! I work a hybrid-remote job with a flexible schedule. The longest I will be out of the house is 5 hours per day, and I am able to build my schedule around your dogs' needs! I am able to accommodate any routine your pup has, and I will give them all the love they need while you are away. I can easily crate them if needed, or stick to any feeding, exercise, and/or medication schedules you have in place.

“Hannah was extremely flexible and communicative with my semi-complicated pup. She was patient and handled his reactivity with confidence. She was extremely thorough and engaged with Mickey. Mickey loved her, would definitely book again.”


About: Instead of "what sets me apart", I'll talk about a recent experience during the snowstorm. During the snowstorm, I had to pick something up. I was in my (previous) car, when a beautiful dog walked up to my window. Sometimes I feel like animals are telepathic, because it just felt like she was saying "Please help me". She was infinitely sweet, and adorable. That night, I spent 5 hours with her, getting her chip checked, getting people to give a damn about her, getting her to authorities for her to be reunited with her family, and hopefully spreading some warmth and love into her heart. I refused to end my night until I was sure she was safe. Extremely flexible. And I'm more than happy to accommodate any changes to your schedule. As long as we are communicating well, any day is available! Each individual pet is different, but I do my best to pay attention to each individual need. Some dogs want walks, some don't. All need attention (and reassurance if their family is leaving on a trip, or won't be back for a while).

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and truly love getting to know each one’s unique personality. From playful pups to mellow seniors, I adapt to their energy and needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m dependable, calm, and pay close attention to routines — whether that’s daily walks, feeding schedules, or medication. I treat every dog like family, and I always aim to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Because I work in cybersecurity, much of my schedule is remote and flexible, allowing me to be highly available and attentive to pets throughout the day. Whether it’s early mornings, late evenings, or quick check-ins between work tasks, I can easily adapt my time to meet the unique needs of each pet. This flexibility ensures consistent care, playtime, and companionship, making sure your furry friends never feel alone or neglected. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. In my home, I maintain a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and play freely without any hazards. I ensure all spaces are free from harmful substances, and pets have access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of stimulation. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I strictly follow their routines and instructions to provide consistency and minimize stress for the pet. I respect their space and property, maintaining open communication with the owner to build trust. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment that supports the pet’s well-being and reassures owners that their beloved companions are in good hands.

About: Pets are like family to me. I will make sure that your pet is safe, loved, and has fun while you are away. They may even learn a new trick or two! I love cats and will provide a discounted rate for anyone who needs to board their cat with me! I currently work from home so I can spend all day with your fur baby. Since I do work from home, I can give your pet lots of walks and play time but they must be able to handle being alone when I am in a meeting. I can accept boardings for cats and dogs between 9am and 6pm. Same day bookings are only available for previous clients. I have a dog park within 3 minutes of my home. Your dog will enjoy playing there everyday. I also have a cat that loves other animals! I have lots of entertainment for a cat as well so they won’t be bored!
