“10/10 would recommend. We are very lucky to have found Rae to help us take care of our new puppy! She comes almost daily to let him out ('walks') as we work 8 hour shifts and are unable to make it home. She's trustworthy, experienced, and knowledgeable in this area which you'll find evident during the meet and greet. Thank you so much Rae!”
“Jada is the only person I trust to watch my pup. I was very nervous to leave him home as a 13 week old puppy; but I felt so much better knowing that Jada was taking care of him. She was very responsive to all of my requests and communicated with me throughout their walk. I could not recommend more!”
“Jenn was super friendly, reliable and most of all my dogs loved her. I loved getting updates through the app and seeing how happy they looked! She always came with treats and had great communication skills. Thank you so much!”
About: I love all animals. I lost my bull mastif/lab mix, Honey Bear, in February 2018. She was 12 1/2 yo. As well as my tabby, Eli, who was 19y/o, in March 2020. I am not ready for a new pupor kitten, so I thought this would provide an avenue to express my love for animals as well as help others. One of my favorites is dog walking. Because I work from home I am able to invest more outdoor activities for your furbabies. I do not have a fenced yard, however I am close to areas that can accomodate. I am very attentive and experienced to handling larger dog breeds and cats. If you are looking for someome that will love your pets as her own, please contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

About: As a toddler until I was 10, we had dacshaunds. I loved them so but when you discover them after they have passed, it leaves an impression on you. I've lived with Doberman-Rottweilers, smaller schnauzers and pet most every pup I see with permission, of course. I would love to visit with the dogs if my community. I work virtually 4 days a week and have a lot of flexibility. This allows me the ability to watch pets, and care for my own. I have 4 indoor cats and a myriad of outdoor cats. I play with them, feed them and provide then with their favorite snacks: Churus. Cleaning up the box during each visit is a given considering cats need a neat space. For dogs, I would make sure to have bags to get their waste and keep snacks to make sure their given something for good behavior.
New Town dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amber is the best! She is always on time and dependable! She is so affectionate and loving to my dog. She takes great photos and shares every detail about her visit. I know my dog is being well taken care of while I am away and I know he loves hanging with Amber!
Vizslas are notoriously aloof and skeptical with new people. Moose is also currently in his angsty tween stage. We had a few previous meetings and greets where he decided he wasn’t a good match with the prospective dog walkers. Jordan arrived on time dressed both professionally and appropriately for a first meeting and walk with a high energy dog. She took the time to introduce herself, meet and bond with Moose, and was very easy to get along with and knowledgeable about not only working dogs but also the Rover program itself. She immediately put both myself and moose at ease. She spent time in the back yard playing fetch with him (he tends to make you feel like you’re an automatic tennis ball thrower) and then took him for a nice walk. She quickly learned his hand signals and Dutch and English voice commands. He was very disappointed to see his new friend go and is looking forward to his next adventure with her- as he has been missing his daily runs with me and now has a new awesome exercise buddy! 10/10 would recommend her to anyone!
My first time using Brittany with my dog who has some anxieties and she was the perfect fit! He warmed up to her immediately on meet and greet and did great with her while we were out of town. I will definitely be utilizing her services again. I feel very comfortable with her.
Amazing dog walker. She got my very stubborn dog to actually walk which was a miracle and made sure they were completely safe and taken care of. It’s always scary letting someone take care of your furbabies for the first time and she made me feel so comfortably and at ease! Will definitely use her again.
I hired Jess to walk my two dogs, and she was wonderful! She even made the effort to come meet them ahead of time when my husband was home, which I really appreciated. The pups took to her right away. She showed up on time for both walks, sent photos, and made sure they had plenty of water afterward. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I would definitely hire her again!
Teddy is wonderful with my pup, Lucy. She always gets so excited to see him and really enjoys their walks and playing fetch. Teddy is super punctual, always on time and prepared with leashes and bags. I know Lucy is in good hands when they go on their adventures.
Steven was an absolute joy to work with today and absolutely LOVED on our dogs Scout and Seven. Very professional, reminded me i needed poop bags (just moved into a new neighborhood), and knew just how to handle our dogs untrained behavior. Poor Seven got pooped about 15 min in and Steven even just carried him home. We have fallen in love and DEFINITELY will be using Steven again!
Shira is an absolute gem! She has been walking my dog regularly, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her care, reliability, and professionalism. From day one, it was clear how much she truly loves animals—my dog took to her instantly, which is rare! Shira is always punctual, communicative, and goes above and beyond. Whether it’s a last-minute schedule change or an extra-long walk on a sunny day, she’s flexible and kind. I also really appreciate the updates and photos she sends after each walk—it gives me such peace of mind. Most importantly, my dog comes home happy and well-exercised, which says it all. I trust Shira completely and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, loving, and dependable dog walker. She’s the best!
