About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, as well as owning exotic animals. I know what it take to care for puppies and adult dogs Me and My girlfriend are currently focussing on pet care 24/7, and are available anytime throughout the day or night. Pet care will be apart of our daily routine. We care for our pets with love. We feed them regularly and make sure they have plenty of water. We also love playing with big dogs. I take my parents dogs to the park to run around and release energy as well as playing fetch.
“Francis is wonderful! He was agreeable to a meet-and-greet prior to starting services, took a genuine interest in finding out Beckett’s specific needs, and has always been punctual. I’ve been very impressed by his communication, ability to manage Beckett (who has a tendency to pull), and his patience and willingness to work on improving Beckett’s walking. Beckett can take a while to warm up to people, but he warmed up to Francis quickly and has been loving the walks! I’d highly recommend Francis to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, experienced dog walker!”
“She accepted my last minute request, so thankful! Also it was so comforting to know she looked at Fern’s profile closely and was very respectful. She took a lot of pics to show how much fun they had!”
About: Hi! I love dogs of all sizes and have experience both raising and training puppies. I’m very comfortable handling large, excited dogs on walks. I work from home full-time! Let me know your ideal situation and I will try my best to make anything that you need work. If you want to make sure your pup continues good training habits with me just let me know what they are and I’m happy to incorporate them! I’m very conscious of safety precautions regarding distance between other dogs and animals, children, and cars. Your pup will be happy, healthy, and safe! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or reservations. I’m more than happy to talk things over together before you make a decision!
About: Hi! I’m a genuine animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’m a pet owner myself and have also taken care of friends’ and family members’ pets, so I’m familiar with different routines, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. As a current part-time student and have a lot of free time on my hands to attend to your sweet animals when I am needed When I care for pets in their home, I always prioritize following the owner’s instructions and maintaining the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible.
About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience paired with genuine love and patience for every dog I care for. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, and raised and trained my first puppy, a spirited miniature dachshund, when I was 13. Since then, I’ve been a go-to sitter in my community and church, caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. About 10 years ago, I rescued and fully trained my own dog. He was incredibly well-behaved, could be trusted off-leash, and had a calm, gentle nature that helped other dogs feel safe and comfortable, whether around new people, pets, or environments. That experience gave me strong instincts when it comes to training, reading behavior, and helping dogs adjust. Recently, I lost him to cancer, which has been incredibly hard. But caring for other people’s pets has brought me a lot of comfort and joy, and I treat every dog I watch with the same love and attention I gave my own. With me, your pet will be in a safe, calm, and loving environment, with someone who truly understands dogs at every stage of life, from energetic puppies to senior companions. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I work Monday through Thursday and live just 5 minutes from home. For boarding, this allows me to stop by easily for potty breaks and check-ins throughout the day. For house sitting, my schedule may vary slightly depending on your location, but I’m always available for walks and care in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening. Because I have three-day weekends every week, I’m able to offer even more time, attention, and flexibility—whether your dog loves staying active with walks and playtime or prefers a slower, more relaxed pace with plenty of cuddles. In my home, pets have a safe, calm environment with plenty of love, toys, and treats (with your approval, of course!). While I don’t have a fenced yard, I have lots of green space right outside my front and back doors for easy potty breaks and fresh air. Walks, playtime, and supervision are always a priority. If your dog enjoys being social, I’m happy to introduce them to friendly neighborhood dogs or take them to a local dog park—but only if that’s something you’re comfortable with. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to stick closely to their normal routine to keep them happy and stress-free. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions you provide. I treat your home with respect and your pet like family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Michelle was great! She was quick to reply to our booking request, patient with our slow and stubborn little guy, fed him dinner for us on her walk visit, and left thorough feedback for us in his Rover card. Big thanks!”
About: Pets have always had a special place in my heart.They’ve been around me my whole life they have seen me go through so many life changes and we shared so many special memories:) I’m currently in the process of getting my esthetician license (I know it’s not related to pet care) but that dose not conflict with my love of your furry babies. I do have a part time job but I also have lots of free time so pet care fits perfectly into my schedule! I will happily take your pet on walks when needed I provide potty brakes every 2-4 hours If you have a cat I will do the basics of cleaning and changing the litter box I will also do the basics of feeding your furry babies,filling/changing water bowl. And overall have a playful time and keep your furry babies happy and have plenty of company.
“Yihung is incredible with our pup Winnie. He took the time to visit her and take her around the block to make sure everything went smoothly. He shared plenty of photos along the way. No doubt, we’ll be regulars of Yihung moving forward!!”
“Leigh is a great communicator! You can tell she's very conscientious about her responsibility of caring for your dog. I trust she will let me know of any concerns that should arise during her time with my dog.”
“Brandy is amazing! I didn’t update my address on Rover and it sent her to my old spot and she still drove to my current address and walked him for me. I would 10/10 recommend her and will continue to use her services when needed. Thank you, Brandy, for taking such good care of my baby. 🥰”

Ashlyn did an amazing job walking my dogs! She sent the cutest photos of my two pups and made sure their water was always topped off. She gave them plenty of love, attention, and treats during every visit. It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for. I will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💕
I needed someone last minute to walk my dog when I had to go out of town for work and Miranda went above and beyond! She did a same day meet and greet and then stayed extra time with my dog because there was a storm and he was anxious. Her communication was great and she sent several updates and pictures. I appreciated her level of care and would definitely book again with her in the future.
Punctual, responsive and just as attentive as last time. This is my second time using Marina’s services and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend her for all your pet needs, she will treat your dog as if it were her own. Even last minute request was treated with urgency.
We’ve had such a great experience with Roxy as our dog walker. She is always reliable caring and clearly loves what she does. We especially appreciate the thoughtful updates and the great pictures she sends after each walk. It is so nice to see our pup happy and well taken care of while we are away. Even our cat who usually does not like anyone absolutely adores her which says a lot. Roxy has truly earned our trust and we feel completely at ease knowing our pets are in her care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely kind with animals.
