About: Dogs have been part of my life as long as I can remember — I grew up with a black Lab (12 great years), have had my own dog for almost 7, and regularly watch a close friend's dog when they travel. So I'm used to slipping into someone else's routine and earning a new dog's trust while making sure they are enjoying themselves. On walks I'm patient and attentive: no phone-scrolling, pace matched to your dog, and a photo update after every visit. Happy to do a meet-and-greet first if your dog is nervous, senior, or just particular. Message me anytime. I am a Marketing Consultant by trade so I typically have time during my days to come meet up with a dog who needs some care. That's why I started my Rover profile. I love dogs and have time for them! I have two young kids and a dog at home so I'm accustomed to taking direction. Happy to follow any directions you have to care for your dog - every dog has a 'thing' :) My main goal is to always make sure the dog gets the essentials - exercise, food, water - and from there it's about happiness. I'll play, give pets, take outside in the yard...whatever the dog needs!

About: I've grown up with pets my entire life. Started working at a boarding and training facility and finally decided to branch out on my own. Between learning to administer meds for my diabetic cat to training my own dog to be daughters emotional support pet, I have quite a bit of knowledge. I look forward to taking care of others four-legged, fluffy friends as if they were my own! I am looking to fill my life with animals, however possible. I can be available at the drop of a hat to help with anyone's pet care needs. I have a tendency to spoil animals...If you let your dog sleep on the furniture then I will fully condone that and be curled up with them! If your cat gets to share your warm glass of milk before bed, then my milk is their milk!
“We’re so grateful for the care Monty received during Sam’s visits while he was recovering from surgery. She provided patience, TLC, and close attention to his medical needs. We couldn’t recommend her more highly, especially for pets needing extra care.”
“Jessica was wonderful! She responded so quickly to my last-minute dog walking request. She’s very knowledgeable with dogs and handled Cali’s high energy and jumpiness so well. We will definitely book her again!”
About: I have grown up with animals of all types. Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, frogs, etc! I have a lot of love for all animals, of all ages, shapes and sizes!

“Taylor is awesome! She was very patient with Luna and communicated so well throughout the entire visit. Even though the walk didn’t work out because Luna was super nervous, Taylor still made sure to keep me updated and sent lots of photos. Her energy is so kind, and you can tell she’s great with all types of dogs. I really appreciate her taking the time to work with Luna and even attempting to stay past the scheduled time to help her feel more comfortable. Thank you, Taylor! ❤️”
“Lesley is amazing! We contacted her on short notice when my fiance was suddenly returning back to work. We loved that she had the experience to provide training walks for our little guy who is still learning his leash manners. She was flexible with our schedules, and keeps in contact with updates/videos throughout. She has provided us great advice on how to be better dog parents while on our walks. In just a few visits our baby is already behaving so much better on his walks! Do yourself a favor and hire Lesley!”
“She walked our dog, Louie. She was very friendly and confident with how to handle dogs - pleasant affect without getting our dog over excited, which most people do. I would easily recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
